In one of the scenes the hero must leap off a cliff. He hesitates until his companion urges him not to think too much but to "Trust your body!" He jumps and sure enough, after a lot of rolling and tumbling and bouncing and banging he lands safely. This sequence got me considering how many times I've experienced unexplainable good fortune and how perhaps my good luck was not due to random chance or divine intervention but rather perhaps to my body's inner knowingness being capable of guiding me to these happy endings. We recognize our bodies instinctively know what to do to keep balance and how to catch ourselves in a fall, but is it possible our bodies also instinctively know how to guide us through life's other challenges? Does the human body have an instinct for finding true love and parking places? We're constantly urged to trust in Spirit to guide and protect us, but how about we trust our bodies? What changes would such an attitude create in our lives?
Certainly we'd all start eating better. The owner of a race horse doesn't try to cut corners feeding his animal junk food and likewise when we recognize our body is a prize animal that must be cared for I bet we won't want to feed ourselves chemicals either. Furthermore, just as a valued horse would not be expected to race every day, if we realize we're spirits entrusted with the care of human animals we wont admire models who starve their bodies or anyone who pushes themselves beyond endurance.
Of course many animals are mistreated all over the world. Perhaps the karma, the result, of allowing such cruelty is we also mistreat human animals. Perhaps if humankind were to take better care of the animal kingdom the result would be we'd instinctively come to take better care of human beings too.

Meanwhile, the most exciting thing to come from this awareness that our physical being must be respected and cared for like any other animal, is the further awareness that the body can instinctively preform all sorts of miracles that our minds have no idea how to achieve. How often have we stifled our hopes and dreams because we couldn't imagine how our wishes could be made to come true? But if we recognize it is not necessary for us to know how a thing is to be accomplished - that we our bodies instinctively know how to find the pot of gold! - then we are embolden to dream big, jump off the cliff, and let the body show what it can do!
Now having written all this I think my body deserves a little treat. I'm thinking I'll take it for a walk but my inner pony wants chocolate. Anyone know a good horse whisperer?
Happy landings!
