You and Your Body: Partners for an Intuitive Life

By Jennifer Baltz

Did you know that your body is built to match your life purpose? As a spirit, you actually chose a body with the genetics that you need to do what you came here to do. It may not always seem that way, especially when you're struggling to lose weight or keep exercise goals. But it's true. You came equipped to fulfill your goals as spirit this lifetime.

Validation helps build communication

Take a moment and take stock of the things you like about your body-the things it can do, the gifts it came with. And notice how these abilities and gifts have served you well all of your life.

Now there may be other aspects that you aren't so pleased with, but you may also find that you have learned a lot in dealing with them, too. Learned things that have helped you along your path--to become more empathetic with others, to grow as a spirit, and so on.

Your body is guided by your spiritual self

Your body is a part of who you are, but it is guided on the whole by you as an immortal spirit.

It's kind of like you and your car, only on a much deeper, more connected level. If you picture your car as a creature with feelings and desires, it's a much closer comparison. As a spirit, you're in the driver's seat, but your body ultimately controls how far and how fast you can go. If your body is unhappy, or not well cared for; if it doesn't have the right fuel; or if it's just plain mad at you, you may find your goals grinding to a halt.

So the communication between you and your body makes a BIG difference in how your life goes. Good communication means much smoother sailing.

That communication includes everything from feelings and sensations, to thoughts, words and mental images. You as a spirit communicate best in images. Your body does better with feelings and senses. Words and thoughts come somewhere in the middle.

What you think sends a message to your body

In a sense, with every thought, feeling, and choice, you are relationship-building with your body. Whenever you do, say or think things that are supportive, caring and loving towards your body, it builds trust and communication. Thoughts and actions that are negative, or not supportive, tend to undermine the trust and communication we have with our bodies.

Consistent positive input ... from your thoughts to what you eat and how much sleep you get, makes a big difference in the body-spirit partnership. When times are tough and you need that partnership the most, you want it to be as strong as possible. The stronger the partnership, the more you can use the gifts and strengths you designed your body to have in the first place.

Other benefits of good body-spirit communication are strong intuition, greater awareness and focus, creativity, greater wellness, and much more fun. You'll have greater awareness of what you really want (and it will be much easier to get there) .... when you work with your body as a partner in the process.
