Nothing is wrong with you
You are not broken.
There is nothing to fix.
You have just overly practiced to live from your mind
and to numb your body, pleasure and joy.
We have learnt to think our way through life.
But forgotten how to FEEL it.
We learned how to…
analyse
perform
understand
solve
achieve
stay in control
Few of us learned how to…
rest
receive
play
desire
feel
trust our bodies
You cannot think yourself into aliveness.
Joy isn’t the reward of creating a successful life.
For a long time, I believed that rationally understanding myself would be enough.
I read a lot of book,
Journalled and reflected for many, many hours.
I hired coaches and therapists to talk things through.
The actual breakthrough came when I started listening to my body.
When I learnt and practiced feeling the sensations and the pleasure in my body.
