Connecting to your body

3/8/2013

Sometimes we feel that our bodies have let us down. They are there to bring us to a deeper connection with ourselves. Let’s borrow benefits and learn how to be one with our physical bodies in this lifetime. (Bring to mind being REJECTED by someone from the past---and let’s continue the
dialogue)

KC: Even though I suffered that rejection and two months later my back started hurting---I realize I never felt supported by him and blessed little body---thank you for showing me this
KC: Even though I have this back pain---I’m so grateful to my body for holding this pain and hurt until I was ready to face just how hurt I was in the relationship
KC: Even though I have all this back pain---I honor and acknowledge it and choose to start letting it
go

EB: All this back pain
SE: I never felt supported by him
UE: And now I feel it in my back
UN: That my own back isn’t supporting me
CH: I didn’t do anything wrong
CB: My body didn’t do anything wrong
UA: I was supported
TH: He betrayed me

EB: I remember in High School when I wasn’t supported my back hurt
SE: Maybe my back signals me when I’m not being supported
UE: Maybe I can start to read the signals my body is giving me
UN: All this rejection
CH: Showing up in my body
CB: I’m willing to let it go
UA: I’m willing to acknowledge what I’ve been denying
TH: All this pain

EB: I refuse to stop beating myself up
SE: I didn’t know
UE: How wonderful that my back WAS supporting me
UN: By showing me how I wasn’t having my needs met by him
CH: I choose to start letting the pain go
CB: To tap on my feelings around that failed relationship
UA: So my back can relax
TH: Letting go and honoring my feelings and my body

Breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth- ahhhh

CB: It’s okay, I’m safe and can look at all the hurt and know I am not ever going to let myself down anymore---I can communicate with my body and it will tell me what I have to work on next”

When the limiting thoughts come back tap on the UE and say or think: “I am committed to one happy, healthy body”

Have a great weekend!
