Let's Talk Trust and Wellness
Our 2nd pillar of wellness is trust.
Why trust?
Because trust is at the foundation of any relationship…including the one you have with yourself and your body.
Imagine trying to have a healthy relationship with someone you ignore, can’t stand to look at, feels will let you down, or don’t know how to be vulnerable with.
All of these are symptoms of lack of trust.
How long would that relationship last before you ended it?
Well, many of us have ended the relationship with our body, we just don’t realize it because we are still in it. But having a body doesn’t mean you are in a relationship with it.
If we:
Ignore it when it communicates it’s needs
Don’t ever look lovingly upon ourselves
Don’t trust it can successfully take the health journey
Don’t know to let our guard down even with ourselves
We don't trust.
This is why trusting yourself is crucial to your well-being. It is the beginning of your love affair with your body.
It’s like asking yourself out, taking your body on a date, courting it, falling in love and ultimately making a life commitment to it….
…and it all starts with trust.
Let’s do an exercise about listening to and trusting your intuition.

Recall a time you trusted your intuition and it was right. How did it feel?
