“A man is never more truthful than when he acknowledges himself as liar.”
Mark Twain
Often people say one thing and do another. They desire something, and then unconsciously sabotage it. They begin with a hopeful intention and then find themselves at crossed purposes. Dreams and wishes seem to give waylaid by life’s circumstances so that your existence becomes ‘a life of quiet desperation’. However, it does not have to be this way. Walking in complete faith of what you talk can make your dreams reality and wishes possible.
It is possible that even your successes and failures in life have something to do with your carriage, your walk, your gestures and not just the words you say? Body language affects everything including your relationships, your potency, and your self-image; which, in turn affects your happiness, personal power, and, ultimately, your health. Back pain, sexual impotence, immune and anxiety disorders, and headaches can often be traced back to how you use your body every moment of your life. You are not just communicating with others when you talk, but you are constantly communicating to your entire organism; which is your body. Your clenched jaw, gripped buttocks, jutting chin affect other people even while it is also affecting your nervous system, skeletal organization, and the circulation of your blood.
We all have an invisible sixth sense, the kinesthetic sense. Our kinesthetic sense is what teaches us how to ride a bike, gives us our spatial orientation and our ability to recognize a friend or foe. Yet we are as unaware of this kinesthetic process and how it works, as a fish is to water. Most of our lives are spent oblivious to kinesthetic habits and reactions that are constantly affecting our attitudes, perceptions, and behavior. Awareness of this kinesthetic sense could be called embodiment, literally living in the body. By experiencing fully what takes place in our standing, walking, talking, making love, or fighting episodes, it’s possible not only to attain what you want in this world; whether financial success, creative fulfillment, or healthy relationships, but you can also become a different person by understanding and transforming the tool with which you chiefly, and knowingly, engage into the world; your talk.
Plonka, L. (2007). Changing Your Life Through The Magic of Body Language
The Bible’s exhortation to love your neighbor as yourself is more challenging than it at first appears because it requires you to love yourself first. God tells us in through the Bible that in order to truly love him, you must love his people. Before you can love yourself you must know how you loving others to understand other people’s need for compassion. Try to experiment with seeing your tensions in your interactions with other people. See what happens in an argument, for example, or if you can sense your tensions as you talk. Are you embodying compassion? Intentionally changing one aspect of an attitude by taking a deep breath, for example, can shift the entire posture and change the entire interaction. By learning to observe your body language, you can begin to identify the postures of not loving yourself and thus, not loving others. I believe this is the first step toward developing a compassionate stance that can improve your connections to others and match your walk to your talk.
