Before We Begin
What is Body Analysis?
Body Analysis is a self-knowledge tool that uses your body's shape to explain your behavioral patterns. It provides clear insights for a deeper understanding of who you are, revealing why you think, feel, and act the way you do.
Is Body Analysis linked to spirituality?
No, body analysis is not linked to spirituality. It's a pragmatic tool entirely focused on self-knowledge. While it's not a spiritual practice, the clarity and autonomy you gain by understanding yourself will empower you to make more conscious decisions in every area of your life, including your spiritual journey.
Who is Body Analysis for?
Body analysis is for anyone who feels like a fish trying to fly. It’s for those who are ready to stop forcing themselves into a life that doesn’t fit, and who understand that self-knowledge is the first step toward building healthy relationships and becoming the main character of their own life story.
What are the benefits of Body Analysis?
The primary benefit of body analysis is the freedom of understanding how you are naturally wired to function. This self-knowledge is liberating because it helps you to:
Respect your limits and live in alignment with your authentic self.
Stop trying to fit into others' expectations.
Make more confident decisions and build better relationships.
Choose environments that support a lighter and more balanced life.
How many times do I need to do a Body Analysis?
Just once.
The body's structure is the result of a biological process called myelination, and that structure is permanent. The analysis provides a foundational roadmap to your mind-body connection that you only need to do once. Any behavioural changes you want to make will depend on your conscious decisions in your environment, not on your body structure.
Will being sad or in a bad mood affect my results?
Not at all. Body analysis doesn’t evaluate your posture or your mood. This process is based on the permanent shape and structure of your body, which does not change. Therefore, your emotional state on the day of the analysis will not affect your results.
I find some of the trait names a bit uncomfortable. - Is that a typical reaction?
That is a completely normal reaction.
I felt the same way myself. The terms used in body analysis are simply descriptive concepts. Their purpose is to help you understand your unique behavioural patterns, not to label or diagnose you. These terms have no link to any pathology or disorder; they are just tools to guide your self-knowledge journey.
What is the best character trait?
There is no such thing as a “best” or “worst” trait. Each one is simply a combination of a pain (fear) and a resource (strength). The best combination of traits is the one you already have, and the key to your freedom is learning to stay connected to your own unique resources.
I relate to more than one trait. How do I know which is mine?
That’s a very common experience.
We all have all five character traits present in our bodies; you've simply identified the ones that are more prominent in you. Through the analysis, you'll receive a chart that shows the percentage of each trait and how they interact. This will finally reveal the unique combination that makes you who you truly are.
I’m very similar to my sister. Why are our body maps different if we have the same parents and grew up in the same environment?
Although you may share a family and environment, your body was myelinated based on your unique perceptions of the world, and your sister’s was based on hers. Since this process happens up to the age of five, it makes each person fundamentally unique, even in shared environments.
What does it mean to be in Pain or Resource?
Pain is when you're acting from a place of defence, driven by your fears. In this state, you're not using your full potential, and you tend to rely on the negative side of your resources.
Resource is when you're using your natural abilities and talents, just as you were born to be. It's like having superpowers. The goal is to understand how you function, so you can recognise when you are in pain and return to your natural state of resource.
What are the pains of the traits?
The five character traits are rooted in a core psychological pain, or fear, experienced in early childhood. These pains are:
Rejection
Abandonment
Manipulation
Humiliation
Betrayal
What are the resources of the traits?
Each of the five traits also comes with a unique, powerful resource, or strength. These resources are:
Creativity
Communication
Negotiation
Execution
Agility
What if I feel resistant to the process?
It's completely normal to feel that way. You may be worried about what you might discover or feel uneasy about opening up. The analysis is a gentle and safe process designed to give you clarity, not to pressure you into change. The goal is to empower you to live with more lightness and power. Facing this initial resistance is often the first step toward the freedom you are looking for.
