Why you should trust changes you want to make to your body

Even though those feelings are valid, it is actually those same feelings which are your body’s way of finding healing or comfort, according to author Candace Pert’s book “Your Body Is Your Subconscious Mind“.

Take for example wearing rings. Each ring finger has a significance that many people don’t know.

These meanings may be outside someone’s knowledge, and yet they might get the desire to wear a handful of rings as part of their style.

Candace Pert, PhD, is the American neuroscientist and pharmacologist who discovered the opiate receptor, the cellular binding site for endorphins in the brain. In her book “Your Body Is Your Subconscious Mind“, she describes her extraordinary search over two decades for the grail of the body’s inborn intelligence.

“Your brain is not in charge,” this revelation by Dr. Candace Pert challenges conventional knowledge about total wellness to reconsider how our bodies think, feel, and heal.

In her research, she dived into decoding the information molecules, such as peptides and their receptors, how these biochemicals flow and resonate, and how they distribute information to each cell in the body at once, to regulate every aspect of human physiology.

It has been said that her model has unlocked the secret of how emotions literally transform our bodies and create our health.

However, body modification is performed for a large variety of reasons, such as aesthetics, sexual enhancement, rites of passage, religious beliefs, to display group membership or affiliation, in remembrance of lived experience, traditional symbolism such as axis mundi and mythology, to create body art, for shock value, and as self-expression, among other reasons.
