The Intelligence of Your Body

Life is intelligent by its very nature. 

 
Every cell is indeed conscious. The entire body is being breathed by a power greater than the mind alone can fathom. 
 
So when my mind begins to dominate the natural flow and expression of life, its possible to lose touch with the inclinations of nature’s intelligence. 
 
In such instances I may feel disconnected from my body and its health. 
 
Why? 
 
What causes a disconnection from health and the quantum field that informs everything? 
 
Any mindset that assumes everything that is worthwhile can only be achieved through the self, and that, whatsoever is worthwhile can only be perceived by the mind. Through making things happen. Through doing. 
 
Such a mindset can easily lead to exhaustion and over-doing, with less space for being moved by life itself.
 
When I directly relate with the intelligence of life, I listen deeply to the body and to nature’s intelligence. 
 
The fascinating revelation is that when I slow down, when I do nothing properly, as in sitting still and simply being, my actions are reflected in my quality of presence. I become  far more effective. My psychology and physiology move into symmetry and health.
 
The key to health is presence. Every therapy and spiritual practice returns us back to the body which only resides in present time.
 
Health rests in the aliveness which is revealed in the body. 
 
All that is needed is to arrive, to come home, to reconnect, to be with, to feel, to rest in what is, to explore and expand conscious awareness and include what can be found, happens with a genuine sense of curiosity.  
 
Aliveness is supported by a yielding into its depths. 
 
Stillness resolves stress. 
 
The bodies intelligence mobilises and surfaces disturbances and its associated resistance for healing.
 
Beneath our pain and suffering there are also a resources that can support the body and its capacity for health.
 
There is always, a bridge between pain and healing. 
 
This bridge is in listening, opening to where the intelligence of life operates.
 
This is far more powerful than forcing the body and manipulating it into what we believe health to be. 
 
Particularly when discomfort or disturbance is present.
 
If you encounter pain, try varying your response. 
 
Explore being curious about the sensations, emotions and thoughts. 
 
Acknowledge tendencies for distraction and reaction. 
 
Make time to trust life, to listen and acknowledge the nature of the body in its vast intelligence. 
 
It is already connected to the consciousness of the entire planet.
 
Listen to this intelligence which initiates and sustains all of life. 
 
Notice if this intelligence provides a resource for you.
