VIDEO: Interoception for Good Health!

Jan Normanton • June 10, 2022

Getting to know ourselves from the Inside Out!

Can you watch this little 30 second video. Do you notice the movement, the stillness, the colours, do you hear the sounds, what else do you notice?


Do you notice any frustration occurring within, wanting to speed it up, come off it, how your mind wanders already, on to the next thought or experience?

 

S L O W down. Right down.


Can you apply the same focus to yourself, your inner landscape. How do you feel right now, truly?


The significance of this inner wisdom and ultimately our own personal and unique truth, is completely underrated, undervalued and downplayed.


And yet, it is what makes us so individual, special, unique. It is where we discover and can cultivate our innate creativity and talents, rather than being a robot existing in the head and operating from learned external influences and scripts.


Our minds after all are an amazing tool however are simply a repeated fabrication of the past, mindsets and beliefs ingrained from our primary caregivers and big influences from early childhood and whatever else we are exposed to from the outside world on a daily basis.


Taking time to sit with ourselves, tune in, get to know our selves intimately through interoception – recognising, feeling, understanding our inner landscapes is vital, for good mental, physical and emotional health, for peace of mind, for a truly enriching and rewarding life.
