Questions? Comments? Engage!

Here's a quick exercise: Make a list of everything wrong with your body. Easy, right? You probably have that list ready to go. Now make a list of what you LIKE about your body, or what your body's strengths are. Harder, isn't it?

This is the relationship most of us have with our bodies - and in this episode, I want to invite you to question whether that has to be true.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why we can list everything "wrong" with our bodies instantly, but struggle to name what we like
• What made you choose to have a body in this lifetime (and no, it wasn't punishment)
• The sensations and experiences only a body can give you
• Why "just think positive" doesn't work (and what energetic congruence actually means)
• The chocolate paradox: how your judgments about food change your body at a molecular level
• Why you can't trick yourself with affirmations when your underlying beliefs haven't shifted
• How to actually get present with your body (and what that even means)
• The power of asking: "What is my body trying to tell me?" instead of "How do I fix this?"

Key concepts:

• Your body listens to everything you think and say about it
• Thoughts change molecular structure (this is scientifically measurable now)
• Being present with your body means getting curious, not trying to control or fix
• Pain and "problems" might be your body's way of getting your attention for something else entirely

Questions to ask yourself:

• When was the last time you actually had FUN with your body?
• What would change if you stopped fighting your body and started having a relationship with it?
• What's one small moment of enjoyment you could choose with your body today?

This is the first episode of The Uncomfortable Question, where we explore the questions that unlock your own wisdom about bodies, animals, relationships, and life.

A note: This episode was recorded live during a "Meet Suzy" event, so you'll hear some audience interaction.
