When the Body Speaks: The Invitation My Body Refused

Written By Gloria Krausse

When has your body spoken louder than your mind, and did you listen?

There are moments when the mind insists on yes, but the body refuses to move. In this presentation, I share a true story of receiving an invitation that looked good on the surface, yet showed its misalignment through pain. It is a reminder that your body carries the final word, and alignment begins when you give yourself permission to listen.

The body never lies.

Pause with this reflection: When has your body spoken louder than your mind, and did you listen?

Not every emotion that moves through you is yours to claim.
An undefined Solar Plexus absorbs the emotional climate around it, amplifying what others feel until it seems personal. Yet wisdom begins the moment you pause and ask, “Is this mine?”
From that pause emerges discernment, the ability to remain present, composed, and empathetically aware without inheriting another’s storm. True clarity lives not in emotional neutrality, but in the elegance of knowing what is yours to hold and what is yours to release.

When emotion stirs within or around you, can you sense whether it is an authentic wave of your own, or an echo passing through from someone else?

The Solar Plexus Centre governs the full spectrum of human emotion: joy, fear, desire, intimacy, and truth. It is both a motor and an awareness centre, generating waves of feeling that move through time and reveal truth only when the wave has settled. For those with this centre defined, emotion becomes a consistent inner tide guiding every decision.

For those undefined, it acts as an amplifier: absorbing and magnifying what others feel.

To live correctly with the Solar Plexus is to respect its waves: to wait, to breathe, and to recognise that clarity is found not in the height of emotion, but in the calm that follows, a “neutral state”.

Life with an Undefined Spleen is never dull, it can be painful, panicked, and sometimes even laughable in hindsight. This reflection explores how the Undefined Splenic Centre clings, fears, and amplifies what isn’t yours, and how to find freedom in letting go.

The Undefined Splenic Centre can keep you holding on to what feels safe, even when it isn’t healthy. This reflection explores five signs that fear and attachment are guiding your choices instead of true alignment.

Which questions in your life are truly yours, and which ones are simply noise?

The Head Centre in Human Design holds the pressure to question, doubt, and inspire. Whether Defined or Undefined, it shapes how you handle mental pressure and how you absorb or transmit it to others. This reflection explores the dynamic between a Defined and an Undefined Head, and how to recognise which questions are truly yours to pursue.

Where in your life are you still moving faster than your own pace allows?

Living under Root pressure can feel normal, but it comes at a hidden cost. When urgency drives every decision, you’re not following your Design, you’re following conditioning. This reflection explores how to recognise when the Root is running your life, and how to step back into alignment.

What has burnout taken from you: your energy, your clarity, or the sense of direction you once trusted?

Burnout drains more than energy; it unsettles clarity, weakens direction, and erodes self-worth. This is not about doing more, but about being guided back into alignment with your true design. A private, quiet space for those ready to recover and return to inner steadiness.

The Root Center is a pressure motor, pushing us to get things done, to start, to move. But not all pressure is worth acting on. In an Undefined Root, the intensity of others can flood the system, creating a false urgency to act, fix, or start something. Left unchecked, this pressure becomes chronic tension, both physical and psychological. In this presentation, we explore how to recognise what’s truly yours, and how to return to a grounded relationship with time, movement, and stress.

When has your body spoken louder than your mind, and did you listen?

Sometimes the body says no before the mind can catch up. In this personal story, an invitation that looked appealing on the surface revealed itself as misaligned, through pain that stopped me in my tracks. This reflection explores how the body speaks when alignment is off, and the freedom that comes when you give yourself permission to listen.

Do you need to be certain to begin?
You need to begin in alignment.

When you stop chasing mental certainty, you’ll feel the difference in you.

Where in your life are you still trying to keep up at the expense of your energy?

The Sacral Centre was never designed to push through exhaustion. When Defined, it responds with sustainable energy, but only when the work is correct. When Undefined, it’s vulnerable to amplification, often driving the body past its natural limits in an effort to keep up. This distortion carries a cost: burnout, disconnection, and depletion. In this presentation, we explore how to reclaim your energy and stop measuring your worth by output. Whether Defined or not, the lesson is the same: alignment isn’t about effort. It’s about energy that’s true.
