We do this miraculous thing 2-3x a day (if everything's moving properly) which is that our body squeezes out all of the unused and unsupportive material from the INSIDE of our body to the OUTSIDE. It is a form a shedding which, if done with intentionality could help remove far more than just waste. Spoiler alert it's when we defacate. Or shit. Or poop. Whatever you want to call it. There's so much shame around pooping and yet just like the childrens book says- We all do it. Not only do we do it, and does the final product have a lot to say about our body and the state of ease it's in, but I believe if we removed the shame from it and actually got intimate with the process of shitting- we could really leverage the powerful potential of this incredible shedding process. Here are few steps to get more intimate with yourself and this amazing process. Step 1. Notice your relationship with your poop and pooping. Do you coward and hide while you're in your bathroom? Do you hope your partner won't see you, hear you or smell you? Do you try to do it as fast as possible and get out, like a runaway robbery? Do you linger and hang out and doom scroll instagram for 30 minutes? Take away the shame and just observe. Step 2. Lean into the process and use the opportunity to let your body communicate with you what it wants you to know as it releases it's waste. Does your body need more water? Does it need more protein? Does it need more healthy fats? Does it have an adequate probiotic biome? Step 3. What if you were able to squeeze out more than just your food waste? What if you were also able to squeeze out stuck energy, old emotions, old beliefs, old grudges and resentments? What else would you like to shed along with your food waste? I invite everyone to lean into this incredibly powerful process and just notice what comes up for you. I'd love to hear your comments, feedback and reflections below. I love you all!
