Got Guts?

This time of year, almost any time of year, many of us are uber conscious about our bellies. Hmmmmm. Maybe it's the Universe's way of getting our attention. "Pay attention to your naval center!" "Hey! Look at me! I've got a clue!" "Hey Listen to your Guts!" "Do you have the guts to hear/do what I have to say?"

When we squeeze our guts off, we are squeezing off a large part of our innate wisdom. do we really want to be "gutless?" Or do we want to have the guts to live large? To live the larger life that we all know is out there? Are we ready to embrace the fact that the larger life is within? Maybe when our guts grow uncomfortably large, or we feel bloated, it is our innate wisdom trying to get out. Maybe it is our Soul saying that we have what it takes to live large and if we would just let go, that large life IS our life.

Have the guts to love your guts. Have the guts to love your Self. Have the guts to live large. And as you relax the false sense of control that our physical and psychic girdles provide us with, you may find that having guts may result in better digestion, a more relaxed attitude, less stress. And ultimately less stress, better digestion and a more relaxed attitude may result in letting go of the extra physical weight that our bodies have imposed on ourselves to either get our attention or protect us from the barrage of our own attack.

So next time you want to bemoan or complain about your guts, try shifting the energy. Try letting your guts be heard by letting them stick out (privately if necessary), and try to calm your mind enough to actually listen past what you think they are telling you. They may have a bigger picture, and once you are willing to see and hear the bigger picture they are sharing with you, they may not need to shout so loudly.

so what's it gonna be? Got guts? or are you committed to being gutless?
