Listening to Your Body – Yes, How DO you Learn a Language You’ve Never Heard before?Dear Friend,
Well as you continue applying it, you may notice yourself experiencing more inner peace and clarity. Learning to Listen to the SpaceToday we’ll explore that Space a little more. This is not just an empty space to be ignored or filled up with distractions. No, this Space is pregnant with Wisdom, Guidance and Love and it is a matter of learning to listen to it, learn its language and trust it. Your body knows how to translate it. It uses feelings, sensation, expansions and Aha’s to communicate it to you.
Learning a new language takes time, commitment and … practice.
Like with any new language, this Body-Space Language is no different. You need to develop an attentive ear to listen for sensations, promptings, nuances and specifically the Feelings that it gives you.
And it takes time to know how to interpret foreign sensations and then make sense out of them.
Eventually, with practice, like with any language, it becomes 2nd Nature. Even the first shimmer of a sensation will start making sense and eventually you’ll recognize that as more real than the familiar language of the mind’s interpretation and resistance. What a Yes and a No Feel likeThe first steps to understanding your intuition are to start Feeling what a Yes and what a No FEEL like. Yes, FEEL like!
You’ll notice those sensations in your body are very different, but most of us didn’t learn that when we grew up. If you are anything like me, you were told to ignore your own truth and do as you were told! Not a good environment for learning and listening to your body language. Most of us learned to NOT listen to these signs so we learned to doubt theminstead. Is it any wonder that we have moved so far away from our inner Knowing and deeper Wisdom. But times are different now, and we can choose to trust again.
Yes
Bring your attention into your body and notice what happens there.
Those are typical Yes Sensations, and a clear language that you can trust. It never lies! NoIn case you said No, what tells you that? How do you know it is a No? Again, bring your attention into your body and notice what happens.
Feeling a Yes and a No are the basics of your body language and something you may already be familiar with, even though you may not have thought about it. When you start paying attention to your body sensations, you’ll be able to learn your unique body language and finally trust it. |
This Space is You
So, by Allowing your experience instead of resisting it, you create a Space that you can now listen to.
The more you attune to this Space, the easier you’ll ‘hear’ its language through your body’s interpretation, and the more you’ll feel at One with yourSelf … and with everyOne around you. You’ll realize that you are this Space and not separate from it.
It seems to be easier to learn this language and fine-tune it when you do it with someone who speaks it well and who can help you develop yours.
Hakomi, a body-centered approach
When I started the Hakomi training in 1999 I was not fluent at all, but somehow I thought I was … Oops!
I was surprised to learn how I still had the tendency to interpret my feelings with my mind, and not really listening to them like I am now.
I easily jumped to conclusions without being backed up by my Inner Sensations … or I would take what others said at face value without checking in with my own senses first.
I think that is quite common. So many of us grew up primarily learning the language of the mind and remained rusty in Body-Space language.
Please be gentle and patient with yourself as you learn it now. It takes practice and commitment to make it your First Language.
- The body never lies
- Anyone can learn this language
- Anyone can become fluent in it
What to Do Next
If you feel less than fluent at understanding your intuition and if you ever get mixed signals with what decision you should make, then here’s what you can do…
Free 30 min Discovery Session
You can sign up to have a complimentary 30 minute Discovery Session with me where we’ll explore this in greater detail, so you’ll know where you can enhance your Inner Knowing to feel more powerful in your life…
When I was learning this language, it was extremely helpful to be guided by someone who ‘spoke’ it quite fluently – or at least better than I did.
It’s like learning ANY new language… it makes sense to work with someone who already knows the language, doesn’t it?
When I had someone turn my awareness to my own body and help me recognize what I was not aware of or not trusting, I gradually started getting more confident in trusting the wisdom I already had within me.
Having someone acknowledge it from the outside, was part of my process to trust it more and more on the inside. It had been missing when I grew up, so it was a blessing to be able to receive that confirmation later in life.
If you feel that you want to learn the language of your body, of your intuition, so that you can trust it and make better choices, please listen to that feeling. It will help you get more clarity in your life, as well as experience more peace and inner joy by listening to Your True Self.
