This is such a great and practical piece Wilco!

"80 to 90% of communication between the brain and the gut goes from the gut to the brain. When the vagus nerve is interrupted or shut off, little to no communication takes place."

THIS! There's no intuition here when it's shut off, so what are most people left to do but chase after what everyone else is doing, further outsourcing their intuition to anything possible outside them.

Thank you! So not clear when you're in the rush of the modern corporate world - and so obvious once you re-activate the intimate relationship with your body.

And exactly. Adds up to your community message yesterday regarding Chat GPT. Chasing stuff they don't want in the first place.

Now you also know why the mind needs to be a 'blank canvas' to facilitate gut-brain communication and receive messages from the body.
