HAVE YOU OUTSOURCED YOUR BODY?
Your phone counts your steps
Tells you if you’ve moved enough
Your watch shakes telling you you’ve been sitting too long
A book instructs what to eat
When to eat
How much
A syringe of solution deletes
Hunger
Desires
Food thoughts
Influencers upload pictures of projected perfection
Where are you?
Have you outsourced your body?
Managing it like software to be upgraded
What about insourcing?
What about listening in?
Trusting the truth of your own cells
Maybe you will find that your internal algorithm is the wisest
Your gut feeling
Guiding you to body-wisdom
Your stiff shoulders
Asking you to stretch
Your rumbling belly
Reminding you to eat
Your clenched jaw
Calling you to speak your anger
The tingle of pleasure
Inviting delight
Your body cueing you
Asking for care
Your body is the truest source
