Hear the Wisdom of Your Body
Episode 12: Biz Cush on Sacred Knowing
Listen in as Elizabeth Cush shares thoughts about the sacred knowing that rests within our bodies—and how to learn to listen to what it’s telling us.
“We are born with this innate, wise self that is attuned to our bodies.”
Show Notes:

Chances are your body is trying to tell you something important.

She’ll talk about why we’ve become disconnected from our bodies, what kinds of things it can tell us and how it can help us get to know our parts. She also discusses her own experience with becoming open to hearing what the body has to say—and what it told her.
