some time ago had read a book by one of the greatest mystics , called Osho . The said usually human beings do not actually have contact with our body, no sorry, we do not know how they feel part of our body unless we hurt. To which the author mentioned that we actually have contact with pain at that time with our body.
This figure seems very interesting and even I find it curious how we handle pain the most of people, few people actually have a consent for pain control, because control of it if it belongs to us. But why do we get something slightly hurt us more than they should? It is very obvious that if during our life, we have seen that people who are hurt scream, cry, and complain we'll do the same. The real question is whether this is necessary. There are physical injuries can hurt us both to mourn and and body react if necessary, will be normal because the pain must somehow be expressed and then the body adapts and stops suffering even if he is injured. As Buddha said "Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional ".
I agree that we will not become fakirs in desire to get rid of any pain, because the pain we feel follow, but we can help learn to control body so the body adapts to anesthetize without or to support more serious cases until one can be medical attention.
For now I leave an exercise that Osho recommended in this regard and I'm sure practicing it, apart from learning to relax the body, we can learn to feel and control the intensity of their emotions. The exercise involves lying on the floor and just going to feel the body, this exercise should be done when the body feels good, when there is no discomfort to actually make contact with the body. It may even be a good exercise to encourage healthy esteem. This exercise is recommended too practical in nature, feeling the body for a moment under the sun on the grass, etc.
I hope you enjoy contact with your body!
My best wishes to all! Namaste
