Are you leaving daily reports from your body unread? Why the same recurring discomfort might actually be important information

I share the physical reactions of autoimmune diseases and chronic inflammation as
"messages from the body."
I hope to share serious talk about the body in a way that might make you smile
just a little.


I sometimes think of physical reactions like daily reports.

Subject: Regarding today's physical condition
Body: I feel sluggish.

The next day, too.

Subject: Regarding today's physical condition
Body: I feel sluggish.

And the day after that.

Subject: Regarding today's physical condition
Body: I feel sluggish.

At first, you read them.
"Huh, why am I so sluggish?"
"Did I do something yesterday?"
"What did I eat?"

But when they arrive every day, people gradually stop opening them.

"Oh, it's that same old thing again."

And when it continues repeatedly, it gradually becomes "normal."

The usual sluggishness.
The usual sleepiness.
The usual bloating.
The usual heaviness in the joints.

But is it really normal?
From the body's perspective, it's probably like this.

"I've been submitting them every day, you know."

Exactly.
The body isn't staying silent.
It might be sending unread daily reports continuously.

But sudden discomfort becomes an incident.

Suddenly running a fever.
Suddenly feeling intense pain.
Suddenly unable to move.

At times like these, you definitely take notice.

On the other hand, quietly persistent discomfort is easily overlooked.

The "I feel sluggish" that arrives every morning,
the "I feel sleepy" that arrives after every meal,
the "I'm breaking out" that arrives at the same time every month,
the "I've fallen apart" that arrives after a busy week.

The subject lines are so identical that they don't look important.

But what if you received a report from the same department at work every day saying,
“Processing is falling behind.”
That would be a fairly important message.

Your body's daily reports are the same.
Instead of just thinking, “I feel sluggish again,”
ask, “Why does it manifest as sluggishness every time?”
That is where the information lies.

When people say, “Listen to your body,”
it sounds like something a bit special.

Only people with sharp senses can do it.
Only those who understand through intuition can do it.
If you close your eyes, your body will speak to you.

You might have that kind of image.

But in reality, the body doesn't speak in such kind, clear language.

“Due to yesterday's lack of sleep, blood sugar fluctuations after lunch, and added stress, the recovery department is experiencing delays today.”

It would be helpful if it spoke in this much detail.

But what actually arrives is usually just this:

Sluggish.
Sleepy.
Tight.
Heavy.
Restless.

Short.
Rough.
But the information is there.

The problem is that it's hard to understand the meaning if you read them one by one.
So what's important is not to look at them individually, but to read them as a flow.

If you feel sluggish for just one day, you might not know the reason.
But if you look at it over many days, you might start to see a pattern.

Stronger after a lack of sleep.
Appears after a busy week.
Sleepy after meals.
Joints feel heavy before menstruation.
Skin feels restless when stress continues.
Stomach feels bloated the day after eating out.
Can't move the morning after pushing too hard.

When this happens, it's no longer just “the usual discomfort.”
It starts to look like your body is reporting on the same theme over and over again.

Subject: Regarding insufficient recovery
Body: Processing is falling behind again this week.

Subject: From the blood sugar department
Body: It's a bit erratic after lunch.

Subject: From the immune department
Body: The alert level is hard to lower.

Your body's daily reports may be short,
but if you keep reading them, a context begins to emerge.

"When does it appear?"
"What does it follow?"
"How long does it last?"
"Does it change when you rest?"
"Does it repeat at the same time?"

A body's daily report is not a report card.
It is not a notice of failure either.
It is more like a status report informing you of your body's current operational situation.

When you get used to chronic discomfort,
your trust in your body also gradually diminishes.

"My body is always like this."
"I'm sluggish again anyway."
"Nothing I do changes anything."

You start to think that way.

But within that "always,"
there is sometimes an important pattern hidden.

Your body might be trying to tell you
the same thing over and over again.

It just doesn't stand out because it arrives every day.
It gets ignored because it's the same every day.
Because it's there every day, it's hard to think of it as important.

From the body's perspective, that's a bit sad.

"Should I have written 'Important' in the subject line?"

Hmm, if possible, I'd like you to put it in the subject line.

Listening to your body's voice
does not mean having a special intuition.

It means taking the daily reports that arrive,
not just brushing them off as "the same thing again,"
but reading them as "when, under what circumstances, and how much is this appearing?"

That is what it means to read your body by its patterns.

Today's sluggishness.
Today's sleepiness.
Today's bloating.
Today's joint heaviness.
Today's skin irritation.

These might not just be discomforts,
but daily reports from your body.

Try opening those unread daily reports from your body
little by little.

In them, you will find not reasons to blame your body,
but information to help you understand it.


I am creating a space where we can translate those reactions together
that are difficult to decipher on your own.
For those who find their body's emails and BGM too difficult to understand,
