Today as I was reflecting on the last few days in doing this challenge how I was feeling and what I was perceiving.
How often do you check in on yourself?
How often do you just allow yourself to BE present to what you are feeling?
Life gets so busy, and it is easy to push things aside and not look at what our body may be trying to tell us. The subtleties of how our body is functioning can be very easily overlooked.
Here are five signs your body is trying to get your attention so you can feel free.
1.๐ด๐๐๐
๐๐๐๐๐๐:
Everyone has mood swings, and your mood should pretty much be even. There are times when your moods will be a little off due to hormones however, they should not be like a roller coaster. If they are then make an appointment to see your GP.
2. ๐ท๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐:
Meditation and gentle relaxation techniques can help as your body maybe telling you to slow down.
If our life is unbalanced or we are having challenges before long they will show up in our dreams. Wanting our attention, asking for a resolution.
You may find you are experiencing broken sleep, insomnia, grinding your teeth or tossing and turning a lot.
A way to ease these experiences is sleep hygiene.
Sleep hygiene is so important for our wellbeing, rest, and healing.
An hour or two before bed put away all use of screens TV, phone, computers.
You may like to try instead, meditation, reading, or listening to some relaxing music, to slow down and calm your mind.
Stopping caffeine intake, increasing exercise throughout the day, and having at least 8 hours of sleep a night consistently.
3. ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐ ๐ญ๐๐:
Do you sometimes walk into a room and forget why you came in. Or you go to do something and canโt remember what you wanted to do. Sound familiar?
If your forgetfulness or concentration affect your everyday activities it may be an indicator, stress is impacting on your life and your body is not coping.
If you have any concerns about your memory or stress you may like to seek professional advice from your GP.
4. ๐พ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ฐ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐:
There are a lot of contributing factors to gaining weight and just as many ways to promote balance within your system.
Acknowledgement of who you are. Loving who you are and acceptance of who you.
Making changes to our weight can be huge, challenging, and daunting. Having the willingness to find balance can trigger emotions, patterns, or beliefs.
The desire to find balance can bring up old memories, pain, and old hurts. These can be reference points for your body, your ego to make sense of why you do what you do.
Through diet, exercise, increase water intake, supplements weight balance can be achieved and sustainable. I am currently doing a 28-day challenge to create weight balance. It is an incredibly supportive and encouraging challenge to be in. As I have said before, for me it is not about loosing weight but more about making changes to my diet, habits and to create different, sustainable strategies for my health and wellbeing. And I might add it is working!!
5. ๐ซ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ฐ๐๐๐๐๐:
Some say our gut is our brain.
Loose stools, bloating, IBS, constipation, are all signs our body is trying to tell us something.
Metaphysically, constipation can be an indication that we are blocking our energy and do not want to let go of something. Likewise, diarrhoea or loose bowels can be an indication of not processing something properly. Louise Hay, โYou can Heal Your Lifeโ and Inna Segal โThe Secret Language of Your Bodyโ are great reads.
Again, remaining hydrated, good diet, exercise, supplements all help with digestion.
One of my favourite things to help with digestion is restoriix as it is a natural way for the body to detox and remove unwanted waste.
Elite to maintain hormonal balance, reduce inflammation, reduce pain, and boost general wellness within the body.
To finish I am enjoying this challenge. Working through the roadblocks and understanding my body where I can allow myself to move to the next level.
Have a awesome day!!
