Every Body Remembers Kimberly Davidson

Time heals all wounds is a lie. That entity in our brain called "memory" is like an elephant-it never forgets. Every memory creates a belief and thinking pattern that is alive and desires to run our life. When we experience stress-anything from mild discomfort to intense sorrow, shame, rage, anxiety, or despair-there is a specific thought causing our reaction, and there's a memory that needs to be treated. Furthermore, there is a direct correlation between toxic thinking and a variety of illnesses because memories are held in the body, all the way down at the cellular level. Every body remembers!To transform toxic thinking patterns, our belief system must be challenged and reformed. Emotional, physical, and spiritual healing occurs as we root out the source (the memory) and then adopt new thinking strategies and ways of reacting that line up with God's Truth. We can choose to-with our Creator-change our brains and minds when we do "The Work." Your mind belongs to you, and you have authority over what you think, believe, and say. The simple time-proven self-help exercises will help you cut through decades of negative thinking and beliefs so you can heal your body and re-story your life and live out God's glorious plan. You will think better-feel better-appear better-perform better, and be in a good place to do what God created you to do. The body remembers every adverse experience-going all the way back to childhood-which is why so many of us today are struggling with illnesses and disease. These kinds of memories underlie daily problems and stifle happiness in widespread and unexpected ways. The goal is to have more choice about how we feel and not be unconsciously driven by emotions beyond our control. How miserable do we need to be before we do something about it? This book explains biology and brain science in laymen's terms and provides simple time-proven self-help exercises to understand why you do what you do. We can't change the past or reverse the body's aging process. But we can address our current conditions to improve our overall well-being. We can make transformative choices in order to reshape our stories. If you are afraid of failing or triggering too much pain, those thoughts are coming from memory networks that are pushing fears you never asked for and didn't have the power to prevent when they were planted inside you decades ago. ADD TO VIDEOOne of the most difficult challenges for me is watch women around me suffer. They have everything they need-they have Christ. They know what they need to do, yet don't do it. Instead they remain a hostage to pain and suffering. For many people, participating in therapy or a Counseling group equals weakness. I say it's a sign of bravery. What counseling does for those who are brave enough to face their fears and their past is give them a new chance at life-as long as they are willing to try. When an experience has deeply wounded us, the images associated with that experience, along with the emotions we felt at that time like fear, anxiety, hopelessness, rejection, worthlessness, or not belonging-are forever attached to these images. This can create unconscious deadly thinking which takes over and structures our entire world. And since our bodies believe every word stored in our minds, we experience debilitating physical symptoms and sensations. Yet, when people go to a therapist, they don't usually come in declaring, "I need help because my father didn't love me as a kid." They come in seeking help because of something in the present. They recognize that what they're feeling, thinking or doing in the present is hurting themselves and their relationships.
