The Body, Your Friend

Marketing can be an effective tool to educate or manipulate. There are messages filled with fear and messages filled with hope.  On the topic of health, marketing is no different.

I feel grateful to hold a positive viewpoint on healing, longevity, and wellness, rather than what seems to be the predominant fear-based beliefs. Through working with my clients, I am provided with a daily testimony of the body’s innate intelligence to stay healthy, agile, and functioning.

To me, symptoms or manifestations of “diseases” are not a trigger for anxiety. Rather, physical sensations are the means that the body uses to communicate that “something is up.” As a devoted medical detective of this “body language,” I aim to use my knowledge for the power of good and to dispel any panic. Once it’s understood that the body isn’t misbehaving, just in need of a little TLC, it ceases its persistent and constant cries for our attention.

Giving Your Body a Little Lovin’

So, how do we give the body a little tender loving care (TLC)?

TLC can be accomplished through attention, restoration, sequence, and time.

1. Paying Attention–>In order to help the body, you have to first acknowledge that it needs support and ask it what it needs.

If you get stuck, competent body translators (AKA medical detectives) can be hired.

2. Restoration–>Give the body what it is asking for.

This can take a variety of forms, such as:

3. Sequence–>The body needs to be able to assimilate what it is being given.

In general, this means making sure you modulate these key factors prior to any other:

  • External stressors
  • Diet
  • Digestion and assimilation.

4. Time.

Every practitioner and client must become aware that the body has its own innate rhythm and heals in its own time.
