Here is another interesting video from Dr Amy Cuddy - 2018.

Science is uncovering a fascinating truth: the words we speak to our own body can have a powerful impact on health. A new study shows that regularly talking to your body with positive intention can produce measurable improvements in well-being, sometimes faster than taking supplements or vitamins.

When we speak kindly to ourselves and focus on areas of the body that need healing our brain responds by reducing stress, improving blood flow, and boosting cellular communication. This mind-body connection is more than just a mental exercise. It triggers physiological responses that support recovery, immune function, and overall health.

Practices like self-affirmations, mindful dialogue with your body, or even guided visualization can enhance these effects. By consciously acknowledging discomfort, pain, or tension and “talking through it” you can help your body regulate inflammation, reduce stress hormones, and support natural repair mechanisms.

This approach doesn’t replace medical treatment but complements it by harnessing the power of focus, intention, and positive reinforcement. In a world where supplements and quick fixes are often prioritized people are discovering that a simple conversation with their own body can be transformative.

Step by step incorporating this habit into daily life can lead to noticeable improvements in energy, mood, and overall health. Science is proving that the mind and body are not separate and that our words truly do matter, shaping how we heal and thrive.

I watched this TED Talk video about 10 years ago and again last night. I wanted to share it with you.

Body language affects how others see us, but it may also change how we see ourselves. Social psychologist Amy Cuddy argues that "power posing" -- standing in...

Studies show that the body can store emotional, physical, and sexual trauma, which can then manifest as physical pain. This happens because the brain doesn’t separate physical and emotional pain, and the nervous system can store trauma, leading to symptoms like chronic pain, headaches, fatigue, and digestive issues, especially in those with PTSD.

▶️How trauma is stored and expressed physically:

📑Embodiment theories: These theories suggest that traumatic experiences are stored in the body’s somatosensory system as implicit memories and can impact physical sensations and responses later in life.
📑Brain and nervous system response: The central nervous system processes emotional and physical pain similarly, and trauma can lead to chronic stress responses.
📑Chronic pain: There is a higher prevalence of chronic pain in survivors of childhood sexual abuse, as well as a link between trauma and conditions like high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and heart disease.
📑Manifestations: The physical pain can be a warning sign that emotional work needs to be done or a result of unresolved trauma in the nervous system.

▶️Examples of physical symptoms: Common physical symptoms include:
Headaches
Muscle pain and stiffness
Gastrointestinal issues
Fatigue
Increased heart rate, sweating, or trembling
Sexual pain or dysfunction

You must release the trauma from your body in order to heal. I will put a few somatic exercises in the comments section for you to try on your own, but more severe cases should seek professional guidance. Your trauma is never your fault, but, unfortunately, healing has become your responsibility. Take great care of yourselves sweet friends.

Post 10: Why We Keep Going

Even with all the doubt, fear, loneliness, and pressure we may feel, we keep pedalling because cycling shows us that we are stronger than we realise. The mental battles we overcome on the bike help us face challenges off the road too. Sometimes, the struggle itself is what makes it meaningful. We're not just strengthening our legs- we’re building character along the way.
