Like a car, your body gives you signals when you’re low on fuel, when you’re being careless, and when you might not have adequately prepared. However, we react to our car’s signals much more efficiently than we react to our body’s signals because our car tells us exactly what’s not right: the lit up E when you’re out of gas, the annoying dinging when you don’t buckle your seatbelt, and the monotone beep when you haven’t closed your car door all the way. Your body is much more subtle in its cues. That’s why it’s important to check in with your body on a regular basis. Pay attention to how you feel. Take a few moments everyday to scan your body, starting with your feet and moving all the way up through the crown of your head. Allow yourself to feel whatever is going on in your body, and rather than ignoring what you feel, do something about it. Take a short nap if you’re tired or take a walk around the block if you’re restless. Just how you wouldn’t want to drive your car with your tank on E, seatbelt-less, and with an open door, you wouldn’t want to ignore the subtle signs that your body offers you.
