I'm often surprised when I "accidentally" let my shoulders relax, that they were so tense in the first place! I spend so much time in my head, I forget my body, do not consider it part of me (it is) and only notice places of pain (my shoulder, knee, stomach/intestines a couple nights ago when I ate something that did not agree with me). I think though, like the idiot rhyme, "dem bones"
http://kids.niehs.nih.gov/games/song...s/bonesmid.htm everything is connected and "hangs" together to make a whole, I need to consider my posture hunched here at the computer as well as my sleeping position to get my shoulder to not hurt?
When my T would (very rarely) ask me about where I felt something in my body, I usually only came up with chest or gut. I have asthma and know what it feels like to have constricted breathing and the gut is one of the main organs of the body; it is a wonder I did not have more headaches with all the over-thinking I did/do?
I think any answer would be good, just stopping and thinking about the question can only be helpful, even if we end up with no clear answer from our selves/body. We can't know what or where we feel if we are not aware "that" we do, whether we
think so or not.
