Embodied Wisdom
Visceral Feeling After Healing
No one prepares you for the heartache you experience once you heal and truly begin to feel.
Because you are less fragmented and more grounded in your body, you are more aware of the subtle sensations you had unconsciously been tracking and absorbing before…
…The ones that were silently yet colossally effecting you, programming you and wounding you without your intent or consent.
Because you are less disconnected from your center and more attuned to your core, everything begins to feel more visceral.
You become less inquisitive yet more intuitive. You’re suddenly more conscious of how your body experiences emotions.

It’s often felt most profusely in the heart and materializes as an ache, which is accompanied by information that informs and instructs you.
You begin to recognize when your system is bracing and when it’s relaxing.
Since you’ve learned to listen to yourself, you bypass unnecessary pain. Since you’ve learned to listen to yourself, embodied wisdom is gained.
In this way, you realize your body has always been intrinsically communicating its needs as well as feelings of threat and safety.
Heartache is simply among the loudest ways your system communicates.
