How in Tune Are You with Your Body?

Did you know every cell in your body communicates with you through warnings? Our organs speak to us. They first give subtle warnings and if chosen to ignore them they could manifest into much worse situations, even illnesses.

It starts with a core belief.

Pay attention where these physical symptoms are showing up and write them down. Note how often symptoms occur. Now that you have determined what the physical warning is, associate it with a corresponding chakra. Here are a few examples:

• Crown Chakra – Thyroid, Neuro, Tumors

• 3rd Eye Chakra - Eyes

• Throat Chakra – Thyroid, Teeth/Mouth, Sinus

• Heart Chakra – Breasts, Diabetes, Cardio

• Solar Plexus Chakra – Liver, Gastro

• Sacral Chakra – Sexual Issues, Infertility

• Root Chakra – Back and neck, Feet, Muscular, Neuro

Let’s dig a little deeper. We know what the symptoms are, we associated a chakra…what does that translate to?

Example: Susan has chronic knee issues for years. The symptoms started around the time she was 32 when her joints hurt when she bent her knees. Susan was working 50+ hour weeks and not taking any time to love herself because she grew up poor and was always afraid, she would lose everything and end up homeless. By 40 she could barely get up if she sat on the floor. Susan passes on any potential romantic relationships because she’s “set in her ways” and she has plenty of office friends. At 55 she has trouble sitting without shooting pain and swelling. Susan wishes she worked less, made more time to do things she would have enjoyed and was married by now…but she believes she’s too old and unattractive to do anything now. She’s now 60 and needing a knee replacement.

Knee issues reflect an inflexibility towards safety in life and an unwillingness to bend and is associated with the root chakra. Susan’s body gave her signals from 32 to 60. Not only did she ignore the warnings, she also set up a strong belief system of not being enough.

Below are a few examples of possible core beliefs and associated chakras:

• Crown Chakra – not connecting to the world around you, feeling lost

• 3rd Eye Chakra – resisting to see

• Throat Chakra – not authentic self, not speaking your truth, not standing up for yourself

• Heart Chakra – afraid to take in nurturing and sweetness of life

• Solar Plexus Chakra – afraid of power, feeling powerless

• Sacral Chakra – afraid to express yourself sensually and emotionally

• Root Chakra – feeling not supported, inflexible towards safety in life

I invite you to examine yourself this way and list your self-limiting beliefs…are they true? Practice meditation and sit in each belief. Ask God to show you what is true. Be silent and focus on each heartbeat as you listen for the answer.
