Reply To: Listening to My Body as a Leadership Practice

Oh my! I could say a lot about this. Our body is the physical representation of our person, so it gives us lots of signals, if only we would pay attention. If I feel a slight discomfort in my chest, I now ask myself, “What’s going on?” Sometimes, it’s nerve. Sometimes, it’s because I’ve felt uncomfortable about something said or done by a person. It helps greatly to name it first and then go on from there. The body is such a gift.
