Unresolved emotions can be stored as belly fat?
Imagine the Dai Mai as your body’s trusty “Belt Vessel,” encircling you like a comforting hug. It sits right at the body’s core, acting as a horizontal lifeline, ensuring that your Qi and Blood flow smoothly throughout. Now, let’s talk about those extra pounds that everyone is complaining about and trying hard to let go of without being able to. These extra pounds are like little messengers, offering hints about what’s really going on inside, beyond just how we look.
When life challenges us – whether it’s stress or emotionally – our bodies tend to tense up, and our breathing gets shallow.
This tension doesn’t just stay in your muscles; it ripples out and affects your organs too, especially your Liver. And when your Liver isn’t happy, your digestion takes a hit, your immunity wobbles, and your body starts feeling like it’s running on fumes.
Now, imagine your Belt Vessel around your stomach as a stretchy elastic band. When it’s blocked or strained, it’s like your belt is too tight, leading to those frustrating love handles or a bit of extra belly fluff. You work out more, push yourself further, criticize your look but nothing changes.
Here is the part you don’t see: Giving that part of you love and understanding that carrying a bit of extra weight act as a shield, protecting you from the full force of those overwhelming emotions, is your body’s way of saying, “Hey, let’s take it slow for a bit.”
If you’re looking to find your balance – emotionally and physically – there are plenty of gentle ways to do it. From soothing acupressure techniques and fascia release to heartfelt counseling sessions and nourishing foods, there’s a whole toolbox of waiting for you.
So, take a deep breath. You’re not too much anything. Let’s unravel those knots together and find that sweet, harmonious flow once again.
