My Belly Is My Lifeline

What are the extra folds on the stomach saved from?

proceeding from the fact that “if it is, then someone needs it,” you have grown your belly for a reason. the body always solves the problems of the personality - “do you need something? get it!"

So, what tasks of the personality does the excess fat mass around the circumference solve?

First of all, it is protection from unnecessary sexual contacts. Both from the aesthetic side and from the purely technical side.

No sexual contact, no pregnancy. Unconsciously, a woman can protect herself not from sex as such, but from pregnancy. A couple of generations ago in Russian villages it was believed that "a woman is like a chicken, as much as she has in it, so much she should give birth." And women gave birth every year. A big belly is also an imitation of pregnancy - "I'm already on the drift, don't touch me."

From sex appeal in the eyes of other men. The belly plays the role of a "chastity belt", being a guarantee of the spouse's fidelity. And for a woman, a guarantor of her own safety, otherwise "no matter what happens."

A large body is also a great status. Status - the mother of the family, who is not up to all the bullshit there; the status of a serious leader, no longer an "errand girl" or some kind of "flirtatious", but the empress, Catherine II. Weight adds age, and with it the illusion of "wisdom" and "experience." If you need to lead people much older, it is difficult to do it from the position of a piglet on thin legs. Corporeal compliance with one's status looks different in different organizations. Somewhere, to be taken seriously, you need to be smart, active and fit, but somewhere solid, weighty, with a heavy hand and a loud voice. And the body helps the personality to integrate and solve their problems in this environment.

From activity, mobility, quick action. If you want to slow down, settle down, give yourself the right not to run anywhere, not to do what you don't want to do, then how can you help yourself better than getting sick or becoming heavier and more clumsy? Again, a woman with a big belly is subconsciously perceived as expecting a child, and a pregnant woman is not up to any running around.

Although my article is based on women's stories, a lot of weight, as compensation or confirmation of "weight in society", is unconsciously used by men as well. “A big, serious, status man, merchant, boyar, family man! Not a boy, but a husband! " The belly as a limiter of sexual contacts, and women's claims to their persona also works well for men. In addition, a big belly adds age, and with it respect for your person, once again no one will ask you to do anything.

like any symptom, excess weight, and with it more than it would seem necessary, the abdomen has its own problem, which it helps to solve

A client of mine described her belly as her "lifeline." And he really saves. Saves from what we perceive now as dangerous, unnecessary. Protects. Perhaps you are not yet ready to remove this amulet.

Maybe it's about time?)
