There is nothing profound about the Wisdom of the Body.

Once I was running a seminar for mentally ill homeless people. I mentioned “inner wisdom,” and one participant said “I don’t have any wisdom”.

 

Then I asked him, “When you sleep, does your heart beat?”

“Yes,” he said.

“Do you breathe?” I asked.

“Of course,” he said.

That’s the Wisdom of the Body.

 

The Wisdom of the Body has a very simple purpose: to harmonize every function of the mind and body. It is as though every cell works toward the miracle that is the human body, and when all of these cells work together independent of our thinking mind, it puts you in “the Zone.”

 

Simply put, these are times when we are performing at our highest potential. I’ve seen it in people facing a threat of death, or in mothers in the throes of childbirth.  The most popular example of “the Zone” is when athletes perform exceptionally. These types of events move us into the moment where we trust an inner wisdom; we were born with it, and it is our real potential.

 

But you don’t need an extraordinary event to be in the Zone; you can get the same feeling when you’re all alone.

 

The mentally ill man in my seminar was ignoring the Wisdom of his Body because, like most peo­ple, he had been taught to think this way. Many of us are no different: our experiences, the people we’ve encountered and our environment make us who we are today – or so we think! Our everyday cares and the patterns we develop over a lifetime take over our lives, and we tend to ignore this amazing resource we have within.

 

The Wisdom of the Body is not just for extraordinary moments: the goal of life is to connect you to the Wisdom of your Body no matter what your situation. For most people who are healthy, the Wis­dom of the Body operates unnoticed. The heart beats on its’ own; we breathe without being conscious of it. Even for some patients in a coma, the Wisdom of the Body works to preserve that most basic function: the instinct to survive.
