Practice Gratitude for Your Body

Healing isn't always a straight line. Almost daily I speak with someone who is focusing on difficult symptoms and need to explain that the body heals like a roller coaster!

When symptoms persist, it's easy to feel frustrated or disconnected from your body. But your body has been working to protect you your entire life. It needs time to adjust to changes, and the more involved your symptoms, the longer the body will take to make those adjustments.

Many of the things we call "symptoms" are actually adaptations—your body's attempt to keep you safe, help you survive, and maintain balance in the face of stress, illness, trauma, or overwhelm.

Instead of asking:"What's wrong with me?" or "Why is this still happening to me?"

Try asking:"What is my body trying to communicate?"

That simple shift moves us from fighting our body to partnering with it.

Your body is not the obstacle to healing, but rather it is part of the healing process.

Today, pause for a moment and offer your body gratitude for all it has carried you through.

Sometimes the smallest shift in perspective creates the biggest shift in healing.
