It is a breakthrough in our understanding of ourselves and our place in the world to discover that our body has access to information beyond what the mind can understand. The body feels the world energetically. The body feels and the mind thinks; these are two different ways of obtaining information. When we rely only on the mind and our logic we close ourselves off to a huge source of information. We become partial selves and cannot fully feel what we should be doing in life. You could call this too much thinking and not enough feeling. In my new book Quantum Warrior – The Future of the Mind I explain how one of the mythic titles of the body is Navigator to our Destiny. The reason it has this title is that we can only find our true destiny by trusting and following our instincts and feelings. It is this faculty that will reveal these insights to us not our mind. This is backed by scientific experiments; one experiment was by neuroscientist Antonio Damasio who devised a test that measured our ability to process information. He found that the body can feel and process information many times faster than the mind. In other words our gut feelings and hunches should be listened to. The body influences rational thought without our even being aware of the process. Is this good news? You bet it is. We, as human beings, are multi dimensional beings with a conscious mind, a subconscious, a soul and a BODY and this body is capable of guiding us in all areas of our life if we tune into it. Trust and act upon what your deep feelings are telling you and you will be led in extraordinary directions.
