We have fear related to functions of our body. Fear of not being able to eat at an important dinner, fear of not being able to sleep, fear of not making it to the toilet on time, fear of choking, fear of not being able to function well in this or that activity or occasion.
We forget though how strong the body is without the mind.
I heard a man who presented many shows on TV using his own example as the subject for the shows, about how far we can actually drive the body. He said that we can't drive the body to breaking point. When we break it is because our mind believes that we had reached our limit.
Trust plays an important role in all of this. If we trust in the body in the right direction in which the fear is in we can put the mind to rest. When the mind is not at rest we have the thoughts of fear that we are going to be sick at the important dinner and we are going to not be able to eat, and actually the mind makes that happen. All the time our stomach is very capable of eating well.
So in this case it could be that we need to learn to trust our stomach. To know that we can trust it to do its job. It has been designed to digest and that is its speciality and one and only function. If there is not anything else majorly bothering us as soon as we trust the stomach we will be fine and it will do a good job as it always does in many occasions and settings.
Our job is to find exactly where and how we don't trust in our body. Then apply trust and then we start to get somewhere with the work on that fear.
