As a Primary Care Doctor, I am aware that most symptoms go away by themselves. If we rest and let the body take its own course, it usually recovers by itself. With incredible precision, the balance is found again and again. This happens from within. It is wonderful how this unfolds.
When there is active medical intervention, for example taking antibiotics for pneumonia, it is in fact a matter of supporting the self-healing capacity. The medication helps the human body to restore itself.
Whatever therapy is applied (massage, medication, surgery, etc.), a field is always created within which it becomes possible for the body to heal itself.
The human body has an enormous amount of inner wisdom and capacity for self-repair. In a dead body, without a soul, this has disappeared.
It is the ‘soulfulness’ that underlies all life processes in the body. The moment the soul leaves the body, all that remains is matter without consciousness and without the capacity to heal itself.
The body is the temple of the soul, the vehicle of consciousness.
The rational mind can hardly grasp this. We can describe the body in great detail, but that does not mean we understand it.
In my consulting room I see what happens when that connection comes under pressure. When people no longer listen to what wants to be felt inside. The body does not lie. If we push away sadness and keep on smiling, the body will keep on speaking. Softly at first. Then more and more clearly. Until it can no longer be ignored.
Those who learn to listen to the body learn to listen to the soul.
In my coaching practice and in my books, I explore this deeper layer of health. On the inner wisdom of the body and the role of soulfulness. On how symptoms can give direction instead of only being solved. And on living and working in connection with who you really are.
What if your symptom is not only a problem,
but also an invitation to listen to yourself again?
