At Replenish, one underlying theme of everything we do is what we call\u00a0listening-in<\/em>.
\nIt’s not about listening-in to educational or informational materials (though we do plenty of that too!). What it’s about is developing a clear line of communication with your body so that you can actually respond to its messages.
\nThis is the symptom sensitivity I spoke about in a previous article.
\nListening-in is an art and a science. It’s a practice that I’ve developed for myself over many years and that I’m keen on teaching others because of the powerful benefits of this simple act.
\nTo give you an example, I’d been waking up for several mornings with one of my hands feeling a bit swollen. I’d rise and it would be the first thing that grabbed my attention. It certainly wasn’t painful, but it was noticeable.
\nCould the swelling be the deep scratch on one of my fingers that my cat gave me?\u00a0(This would be inflammation of the acute sort, helping my body to heal a wound in a natural and manageable way.)<\/em>
\nOr could the swelling be a sign of some internal inflammation expressing itself in my joints, a signal that I need to redirect my course of action dietarily or nutritionally?\u00a0(This would be inflammation of the chronic sort, the underlying or silent type of inflammation that can express itself externally at the slightest provocation.)<\/em>
\nDon’t get me wrong. I’m not talking about narcissistic or paranoid navel gazing here. Those questions I posed run through my mind in a matter of seconds and don’t lead to any dark holes of thought or conversations with my therapist about my impending death because of the slight perception of swelling in my left hand.
\nJust last night I was reading an older New York Times article called ‘The Science and Art of Listening’. It was a piece about the brain, by the neuroscientist Seth Horowitz, and the different neurons that fire when we\u00a0listen<\/em>\u00a0as opposed to when we\u00a0hear<\/em>.
\nListening as opposed to hearing in effect is what happens when an event jumps out of the background enough to be perceived consciously rather than just being part of your auditory surroundings. The difference between the sense of hearing and the skill of listening is attention\u2026<\/em>
\nHearing, in short, is easy. You and every other vertebrate \u2026 have been doing it for hundreds of millions of years. It\u2019s your life line, your alarm system, your way to escape danger and pass on your genes. But listening, really listening, is hard when potential distractions are leaping into your ears every fifty-thousandth of a second\u2026<\/em>
\nListening is a skill that we\u2019re in danger of losing in a world of \u2026 distraction and information overload.<\/em>
\nThe New York Times piece made me think about the art and science of what I’m callinglistening-in<\/em>.
\nWhen we listen-in, we’re in tune, in harmony, in communication.<\/strong>
\nWhen we listen-in, we can respond as one who has truly paid attention.<\/strong>
\nIn order to listen-in we need to develop our understanding of what we’re listening to, our awareness of what it means and the care with which we can respond. Listening is different than hearing in that it requires attention, yes, but also perception.
\nSymptoms don’t just become a blur that we hear if they’re loud or painful enough, but instead a crystal clear message begging a reply.
\nOn the second day that I woke up with the slight swollen feeling in my left hand I increased my anti-inflammatory herbs and re-checked my recent food intake for some of the foods that might be more inflammatory to my particular system but which I still indulge in on occasion. (It’s this other practice I have called\u00a0living<\/em>.) As someone managing Hashimoto’s I know that inflammation is a quick reaction in my body to any infliction. I also know how to hear it’s subtle cries and respond in turn.
\nNow that I think about it, when I woke up this morning with the sound of heavy rain out my window, there was no sensation of swelling at all. Thank goodness for my practice of listening-in!
\nWarmly,
\n\"Andrea<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
