Speaking the truth profoundly impacts the body, offering visceral relief and organic recalibration.
Truth-telling positively affects all twelve systems of the body, from head to toe, promoting balance and well-being.
Our bodies are innately wired to react when confronted by falsehoods, even if they exist solely in the realm of thought. The autonomous nervous system, over which the mind has limited control, sends distress signals throughout the body, significantly impairing its functioning. These systems include the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, lymphatic, cardiovascular, urinary, digestive, respiratory, nervous, endocrine, and reproductive systems.
In contrast, the truth generates a positive, balancing effect called Homeostasis, impacting all twelve systems with a sense of release and alleviation of stress;
• Breathing becomes deeper and slower, enhancing oxygenation of the blood.
• Muscle and tissue tonality relaxes.
• Heart rate decreases while pumping more robustly.
• Low stress levels promote an alkaline PH balance without depleting bone calcium.
The list goes on, with cascading effects that benefit the entire body.
May you always be brave and prioritise truth over deception for yourself and those close to you.
