Your Body Is Keeping a Score: How to Heal the Physical Pain Your Doctors Can’t Explain
The Unspoken Story Your Body is Screaming
When I look at my patients, I see stories. Behind their physical discomfort, I see stories of an emotional state they do not accept, of an inability to cope with situations they feel they do not have the power to change.
I see people whose souls are in pain, and their number is increasing rapidly. They are constantly seeking therapies to relieve joint and muscle pain, the cause of which medicine cannot find. When you visit a doctor for an ache they can’t diagnose, or a fatigue they can’t explain, you’re not imagining it. You’re simply speaking a language they weren’t trained to understand.
Your body is that language. It is the archive of every unexpressed emotion, every silent compromise. That tension in your back isn’t from sleeping wrong; it’s the weight of years of holding yourself together.
The High Cost of an Unlived Life
This brings us to a profound truth. Ultimately, I see people living in places they don’t want to be, working in jobs they don’t want to do. Burdened with the belief that they have wasted their lives, they take out all their silent frustrations and revenge on the only thing they can control: their own poor bodies, which we are merely guests in.
Your body becomes the battlefield for a war your soul is fighting. You feel trapped, and so your muscles tighten. You feel unseen, and so your energy dissipates. You are living a life that feels like an obligation, and your body is simply embodying that resistance. You’re trying to find a physical cure for a spiritual ailment. And it will never work.
The Mind is a Muscle: The Path to Real Healing
But there is a solution. I see these people every day, and when I listen to their health stories, I try to illuminate what lies behind the curtain. The journey out of pain does not begin with another pill or procedure. It begins with a decision: we have to learn to master our internal state.
Anyone can do this. Imagine for a moment that your mind is a muscle. Just like you exercise your legs to make them stronger, you can also train your mind. What we train, we improve and strengthen. Through this training, your awareness of your own emotions develops. This practice lifts you out of the reactive space you are in, and suddenly, you realize that new windows of possibility have opened in front of you. And you begin to continue on that new path. This is not just coping. This is your evolution.
You Are the Architect of Your Liberation
This evolution is not a gift bestowed upon you; it is a power you claim. It begins the moment you accept a radical truth: the responsibility for your own life lies solely with you. Blaming others, your past, or your circumstances makes you a passenger. But everything you have witnessed in your life is, in some way, your work and your curriculum.
The moment you stop outsourcing your happiness and take ownership of your story, you reclaim your power. You are not flawed; you have simply forgotten your own strength. There is no such thing as perfection. Human is a flawed being. Do not wait for anything to be complete before you start. If you begin the path you desire, your soul will enthusiastically support you.
One Life. One Body. Your Blueprint.
We have one life in this body, with this soul. And you are the one who will decide how you will live it. Not your past, not your job, not your pain. Not anyone else.
Your soul chose this body, this weight, and this height. Love yourself as you are. There won’t be another one of you. This life is lived once in this body. It is time to respect your soul’s choices.
If you are ready to stop chasing symptoms and finally start designing the life and health your body has been waiting for, the path is open. The work isn’t easy, but it is the most rewarding journey you will ever take.
