The body knows before you do

Many decisions first appear as a bodily sensation before becoming a conscious thought.

A knot in the stomach before saying yes to something you don't want. An opening in the chest when something fits. A contraction when someone lies. A lightness when you are in the right place.

The body reads before the mind does.

The problem is that most people stopped listening to it a long time ago.

And when the body speaks and no one listens, it has to speak louder.

That is where pain, anxiety and fatigue appear.

Not as failures.

As volume.
