“We are a resonating system in process rather than a stable, solid mass”<\/em><\/strong> The connection between body and mind is such that what happens in our every day leaves its imprint on the body. Life, or to be more precise, our perception of it, constantly shapes us.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The language we use reflects this: we speak of feeling crushed by a careless remark, squeezed by a tight schedule, or weighed down by troubles. And what we feel inside finds expression in the way our physical body organizes itself. For instance, our body may assume a collapsed posture when we feel depressed and powerless or an over-rigid one if we feel the need to protect ourselves and control our circumstances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It’s not just significant past events that mould us but the daily grind of the day-to-day. If we’ve spent hours under intense pressure at work it’s likely we’ll take the ‘shape’ (we took on during that time) back home with us without realizing it.The physical body tends to ‘mould’ itself from the inside out as internal feelings and psychological states find expression in the body’s soma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The good news is that nothing is ‘set’, as Random McClellom eloquently says, you are “a resonating system in process rather than a stable solid mass”. Positive shifts in well-being can happen through practicing a little regular daily awareness<\/strong>. Just as changing your mindset affects how you feel physically, reorganizing your body posture<\/a> can bring about significant changes at psychological and emotional levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here are some simple mindfulness exercises<\/strong> for you to try. Pause several times in your day, notice your body posture, and:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some more suggestions…<\/p>\n\n\n\n The exquisitely sophisticated connection between body and brain (with its dense communication network of neural pathways, cellular memory and hormonal release) means you can reorganize how you feel inside and even change the way you think, through simply reorganizing yourself from the outside. The mind and body are one – there’s no separation between the two, hence changing the set of your body posture may bring about desired shifts in your sense of well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And, since scientific research in Psycho-neuro-immunology has established a link between well-being and general health, it’s good reason to take a look at the postural habits you’ve developed over the years, and start exploring new ones that serve you better<\/p>\n\n\n\n Linda Hall (MTI, dip TH, dip Clin Hyp, NLP, Coach, EFT) CNHC Registered practitioner, Founder of Resourcefulness Meditation combines down-to-earth pragmatism with insight and sensitivity.
