The pain you feel isn’t something to fix. It’s something to listen to.

Have you ever felt a sharp pain in your shoulder — one of those that keeps you from lifting your arm the way you want — and so you try to “release” it by stretching, correcting your posture, with that persistent thought in your head: “This needs to go away”?

Or maybe a pain in your knee, the kind that doesn’t support you like it used to, and you start to worry that something might be breaking?Or even worse, a burning sensation around your liver, a deep tension that keeps coming back — especially in moments of pressure, anger, or emotional holding?

What we’ve been taught is this: fix yourself. Find a way to “adjust the symptom. ”Get rid of it!!"

But I want to offer you another path, a path that might feel uncomfortable at first —but is much more real.

You don’t need to fix it. You need to stay with it.

We live in a culture that tells us pain is a problem, that if there’s tension, something must be wrong and that we need to act, react, fix.

But the body doesn’t work that way, the body isn’t a machine to be adjusted.The body is a messenger.

And every pain is a message waiting to be heard. Tension is not a mistake. It’s the body’s attempt to say something —in the only language it knows.

When you feel a recurring pain or tension, there’s a part of you in there asking for attention.It may not have words, but it carries a density, a vibration, a silent sound pulsing from within.

And you don’t even have to understand it. You don’t need to explain it.

You need to stay...breathe into it...stay in contact — even just for a few seconds.

This capacity is called, in technical terms, Enteroception: the ability to bring your attention inside the body, rather than just onto it. You don’t need to know the word, but if you’d like to explore it more deeply, scroll to the end of this article.

And what happens when you truly listen to a tension?

Sometimes very little. Sometimes… everything.

That part of your body might begin to soften, to open,to shift its texture — as if the simple act of being feltwas enough to let it reorganize itself.

The pain might not disappear —but something changes. A micro-integration...a subtle alignment...something real.

As if the body was saying: “Thank you. Now I can start trusting you.”

This isn’t magic. It’s the body reclaiming its own reason. Its own initiative.

To heal doesn’t mean going back to how things were. It means welcoming what you are now,even if it hurts, even if it tightens. It means not excluding any part of your inner experience —not even the one that scares or irritates you the most.

Stop correcting yourself and start feeling yourself.

This is real evolution and your body knows it.
