When I was a child I had stomach aches and when I was taken to the doctor and told there was nothing wrong with me, that I had a weed in my tummy. Meanwhile at home there was so much trauma, fights, arguing, etc. I learned to ignore my body. Just starting to unlearn this now.
This is the same for me. I grew up with bad stomach aches all the time. My stomach was distended during my childhood, and my primary care physician couldn't find an answer. Once I moved out of my parents' house in 2020, I realized after 3 months, "WOW I haven't had a stomach ache in 3 months!" It was the stress and emotional turmoil in that toxic household.
Loved this video especially because of the wee Body scan at the end. I find your voice & style so peaceful, calming and safe. Thank you SO MUCH Dr. Sage❣️ Deepest appreciation for all of your hard work, time & energy to create such wonderful healing content. ✨️
Somehow you're describing my lived experiences like you've been my therapist for years. This is all such useful information. Thank you. I hope you take care of yourself, too.
Thank you so much! I am sorry you can relate, because I know this type of pain has its own woundingl origins - but I am hopeful you feel a little seen here💗🙏
Interesting that I could see a pleasant shift in Dr. Sage from a previous video. I think just by her paying attention to her needs, as she mentioned there was something more attractive about her demeanor...softer more approachable and vulnerable.. in a good way. I need to remind myself also, that when I take care of my own needs, people are more relaxed and pleasant. When I'm driven by some compulsion and ignoring my body, no one really likes that, nor are they impressed by my checking boxes on some list.. Turns out what is best for me, is actually a better version of myself that people experience, so it benefits everyone. Apparently people like more HUMAN humans better...the challenge is to trust and feel safe with that instinct outside of my cave..lol
I do now but I didn't before and now I'm in chronic pain and other things I definitely know is side effects of trauma ultimately. Btw your voice is so soothing for the exercise beautiful. Thank you for your heart 💓
I learned to ignore my body because I was never considered when ill and told I will not be taken to the doctor if I hurt myself...and I wasn't. Was ill for a very long time at the age of 10. They just kept me in a back room and I prayed to die, left home alone. It got worse as I aged. My family sucked!!
I also have an illness that causes fatigue. I find men want to be a hero. They say thing like I'll take care of you if you get sick.. never ill take care of your so you DONT GET SICK
I started to have migraines when I was 10 yrs old. I never understood why. I know now! They stop once I moved...it took some time, but they stop. I'm guessing it was all the stress & toxicity.
Why is it always assumed that everyone was raised by parents? I was dropped off at a cult temple and I was raised with a whole bunch of other kids within that cult. I think this may be more common than people think, so it would be nice if when addressing this we don’t always say or assume parents as upbringers. Because that leaves out a whole bunch of us.

Same with me and no one figured it out. I'm sorry 😞

We weren't loved we were used.
Hi loveys! So sorry this is late! Do you listen to your body? Do you find it challenging or....? xo

Great video!
❤ Thanks 😊 you are becoming a regular utube viewing for me, very helpful, calming and supportive. I cried after the meditation is that normal?
I took up drinking and smoking at age 14 to numb myself.
Hi 👋
I’d love to get your input on my situation
Hi! I noticed you said Bay Area. Are you in Tampa by chance? (I am)
CA I think
