  You live in your head. Your intellect is one of your greatest strengths, and you mostly ignore your body unless it’s screaming at you to pay attention. Your body has gifts for you! Learning to listen when it whispers will help you be more comfortable in your skin and unlock a potential you didn’t even know existed.

You would benefit from short and sweet ways to manage stress, lean into joy, and help your body be more at ease.
