Your Body Speaks your Mind and it’s not subtle!
It’s something I say in consults all the time. Our bodies hold onto what the mind can’t process, won’t face or doesn’t know how to express.
Here’s an example:
When someone tells me they’re constipated, I’ll often ask — are you holding your s**t in?
Sometimes I say it more politely… sometimes not but I do usually get a giggle 🤭
But a question like that? It usually lands.
Because the vital force is often trying to show us where we’re stuck.
This is exactly the kind of thing Deb Shapiro explores in one of my most-used books:
📚 Your Body Speaks Your Mind — a brilliant read if you’re curious about the emotional meaning behind symptoms.
A few favourites from the book:
“Every symptom is a message from your body, inviting you to look within.”
“The body becomes a battlefield when it is forced to express what the mind ignores.”
Examples she gives and I see in practice all the time:
💬 Constipation — fear of letting go
💬 Back pain — feeling unsupported
💬 Throat issues — not speaking your truth
💬 Skin conditions — feeling too exposed
💬 Digestive issues — can’t "digest" life
Here’s the thing: most people can’t see these patterns on their own.
You’re in it. You’re living it.
It’s like trying to read the label from inside the jar.
That’s why consults matter.
Homeopathy isn’t just about symptoms — it’s about your whole story.
We’re listening for patterns, language, timing, energy… the thread that ties it all together to find that indicated remedy!
✨ Have you ever had a moment in a consult where something clicked?
Where the emotional link behind a symptom became clear?
Or a homeopath asked a question that made you go — “Ohhh… that’s it.”
If you feel up for sharing, I’d love to hear 🙏
