Pratique du Shadowing: Your emotions are making you sick - Apprendre l'anglais à l'oral avec la vidéo
Création de la leçon...
1
So I literally just woke up.
2
I'm on like the verge of a migraine
3
because I only slept like four hours last night and I went out with my friends.
4
So I have a little bit of a headache.
5
So that's why I'm like lying in bed, just kind of like sleeping it off.
6
But I wanted to talk about something that I talked about with my therapist the other day.
7
It's kind of a hot take
8
that I feel like could help a lot of people out there who are struggling with like chronic illness
9
or any kind of sickness or any kind of like physical ailments.
10
So he very lightly said, hey, so I'm going to tell you this, but take this with a grain of salt.
11
Do you think you would have a chronic illness
12
if we healed all of your trauma and
13
or fixed all of your issues that you have around boundary setting and people pleasing?
14
And I said, no, I think that 99% of my issues
15
that I face with physical ailments would be completely solved if I knew how to stand up for myself.
16
And it opened up a very enlightening conversation because obviously take everything I'm about to say with a grain of salt, but every single person that I've talked to that has developed cancer, an autoimmune disorder, a chronic illness,
17
anything of this nature, they have said
18
that going to therapy was one of the best things they ever did for their physical symptoms.
19
Because obviously things, especially when you're looking at like Chinese medicine, Eastern medicine, they value how much emotions affect the physical body.
20
And here in Western medicine, we don't put as much emphasis on it, we more focus on the symptoms versus the emotional things that could be influencing the body.
21
Because I was also talking about this with a friend, and he believes both sides of it, that there are genetic and environmental factors.
22
And I do agree with that, that there are genetic and environmental factors in why we develop certain things.
23
But also that our emotions are exaggerating our symptoms and are causing certain issues in the body as well.
24
And I fully believe this because the times that I've gone through extreme traumas afterwards, that is when my symptoms got 10 times worse.
25
Like I developed POTS after I went through severe trauma
26
and I developed my Ehlers-Danlos symptoms got 10 times worse while I was healing from really, really bad trauma.
27
And most of my chronic illness stuff started when I was a kid after I went through, let's hear it folks, extreme trauma.
28
And so a lot of people
29
that I've heard from also who have been through abusive relationships like narcissistic relationships their negative emotions
30
and their psychological trauma and abuse will quite literally trigger different things in the body
31
because the way that a lot of um chronic illnesses autoimmune disorders work is
32
that the trigger for it lies dormant in the body
33
and then it will get triggered by something sometimes people carry the genes for it
34
but it never gets the genes never get turned on so sometimes people will carry the gene for something, but it will never get triggered.
35
Like for example, I think my grandma has the gene for Alzheimer's, but she's 80 years old, never had any dementia in her life because she took very good care of herself.
36
She went to therapy.
37
She took care of her emotions.
38
She's very emotionally in tune, very spiritually in tuned, and she's taking care of herself over the years.
39
So it never got triggered.
40
But a lot of people will have emotions trigger bad things in the body because of rising cortisol levels,
41
other physiological factors, and it will cause these genes to quite literally turn on, which is also why some people will be completely fine their whole life
42
and then all of a sudden they're like yeah in my
43
20s 30s I just developed an autoimmune disorder casually on a Tuesday right
44
so I was talking to my friend let me get back to this conversation
45
because I'm all over the place I was talking with my friend about it
46
and we were talking about how there's obviously um environmental factors genetic factors physiological factors um risk factors
47
that play into why people develop this disease.
48
I'm not saying that it's purely emotional.
49
Do not take that as what I'm saying.
50
Do not twist my words.
51
There are factors that contribute it that people who haven't gone through trauma
52
or anything can develop crazy diseases just because of the way their body functions and the way they were born.
53
But a lot of people who develop chronic or autoimmune disorders is emotionally driven because he used to be a chemist.
54
So he was like in the body, if you isolate it and take away emotion entirely from the body, a body functions very, very well.
55
It transports the proteins, it digests the food, it transports the energy, it makes all of these different things in the body, you know, the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell,
56
all the good science stuff that you learn.
57
That functions on a very regular basis and that's very baseline.
58
But the second you throw stress in the mix, the second you throw anxiety in the mix, the second you throw in hormones or hormonal fluctuations,
59
which also gets affected, all of your hormones get affected by stress.
60
All stress affects hormones and hormones affect the body differently.
61
So the second you throw in emotion into the mix, that's when shit gets shaken up.
62
So back to this, I got to sit up for this.
63
Okay.
64
Back to the conversation about my therapist.
65
He was saying, I've been wanting to say this for a while, but I also don't want to like have this come off as harsh.
66
But he's like, I think that like when you were a ballerina, you were under all of this stress.
67
And the second that your body just couldn't take it anymore, it developed a chronic illness because you didn't know how to set boundaries within ballet and with the people around you.
68
And you were forced to push yourself beyond your emotional and physical needs for years till your body was like, I'm going to develop this chronic illness because honestly,
69
this is the only way this bitch is going to take care of me.
70
Hi, editing Bailey here.
71
That's my wooden duck.
72
I love my wooden duck.
73
To add on to the point the video Bailey was saying, when you don't do things that is helpful to the body,
74
your body almost perceives your personality as a problem.
75
Because if let's say you had a child and you're not taking care of that child and you are neglecting that child, that child will learn that you are not a safe person.
76
And we need to get away from this person.
77
We need to rebel against this person.
78
We need to get away because this person is not taking care of us.
79
Same way with the body.
80
When the body recognizes that you are not standing up for it, you are not taking care of it, you are not doing what is necessary to make it healthy, it will start rebelling against you.
81
And it's happened to me time and time again where
82
when i push myself beyond my means i disrespect my boundaries
83
i don't stand up to people i keep myself in negative
84
situations i keep myself in abusive in abusive situations my body
85
will start rebelling my body will start rebelling i will develop rapidly strange symptoms with no correlation to anything
86
that immediately end when i resolve
87
that stress my hair will start falling off my teeth will
88
start rotting away despite brushing them every day i will feel really, really shit.
89
I won't sleep.
90
I'll get insomnia, night terrors, sleep paralysis.
91
And then the second I'm out of that situation, all of it goes away.
92
Funny to think about, right?
93
And it was true.
94
Like that's literally the story that my body tells itself is like, I have to make this girl sick in order for her to take care of me
95
because she's not taking care of me.
96
And it's very true because the only time I will ever take care of myself is when my body gets sick.
97
That's the only time I'll slow down, the only time that I'll take a rest.
98
And so I've been trying to take more and more rest recently.
99
Like I've completely rejected the Goggins mindset.
100
I've completely rejected stoicism.
101
And I'm purely focused on like taking care of myself and making sure that I am okay.
102
And I gotta tell you, I have felt the best I've felt in years.
103
I am like my back pain is going away.
104
My headaches are going away.
105
Everything is subsiding.
106
I still have like, I don't know if you can see this, but I still have like hypermobility.
107
I'm still insanely flexible.
108
I still have digestive issues.
109
I still have other issues that are like embarrassing to talk about, but I have all of the other things that come with chronic illness
110
that are just like in my genetics that I can't change.
111
But a lot of my symptoms have been completely manageable by managing my stress and my emotional well-being.
112
So this applies to everyone, not just those with chronic illness.
113
Stress is the number one killer.
114
We can notice this from the blue zones.
115
if you look at the blue zones around the earth and
116
if you don't know what a blue zone is it's basically
117
these pockets of populations throughout the earth um there's a pocket
118
in i believe it's sicily italy let me actually look this up
119
so i'm not swaying you the wrong way there are five
120
zones throughout the globe with the highest concentration of people living 100
121
or older it is in okonoa japan sardinia italy um i
122
believe it's nicoya peninsula in costa rica greece loma linda california
123
These are the five zones throughout the earth where everyone lives over 100 years old.
124
Like it's just, that's the casual that they just live over 100 years old.
125
And what you'll notice with a lot of these populations, obviously they have very healthy diets.
126
They sway more towards vegetarian diets and or if they do eat meat, it's sparse and they mostly eat fish and they eat very healthy, a lot of vegetables.
127
But then also another thing that happens is they move
128
and exercise with purpose they don't do it to like punish themselves they have very good gym routines
129
but the main thing is
130
that they have very very low stress they maintain their low
131
stress lifestyles through what they do through what they choose to
132
do every single day they nurture their emotional health they take care of themselves
133
and their community and they just live very low stress lifestyles
134
because stress is the number one killer it will cause your body to have panic attacks anxiety attacks,
135
heart attacks, strokes, when people get in very high stress situations or high stress jobs, they will literally die because of that job because of the stress that's being put on their body.
136
But also our emotions and our traumas, even if let's say you're not in the trauma anymore, that trauma lives on in your body.
137
Like the body does fucking keep score.
138
So that will live on in your body and cause you to develop negative, negative mindsets, negative patterns of thinking.
139
It will cause you to continue the stress
140
that you used to live in as a perpetuation because you believe
141
that the trauma and the stress and the chaos
142
that you used to live in is normalized so you continue it
143
and my therapist was talking about this and he's like
144
when you were in all that stress
145
and chaos you didn't know how to set boundaries you didn't know you people pleased like crazy
146
and you just did what everyone told you to do without actually taking into account is this good for me
147
and the thing is is that I perpetuate that cycle with my lifestyle.
148
I will stress myself out like crazy, I'll exercise myself into the ground, I'll push myself beyond my means, I will not eat healthy, I will not sleep enough,
149
but then also I'll allow myself to get walked all over emotionally, I won't respect my own boundaries, I won't take care of myself emotionally.
150
And that is a huge contribution to why I feel so shitty all the time.
151
Because obviously I am sick, but there's also people who have the same condition as me, Ehlers-Danlos and Potts, who are literally Olympic athletes.
152
So why is it that I'm bed bound, but those people can be Olympic athletes?
153
And obviously chronic illness is a sliding scale, so you have to meet yourself where you are.
154
But there's so much that's going on in my emotional body that is weighing down my physical body.
155
And that's what I think we can learn from one, Eastern medicine, but two, just blue zones and also psychology,
156
is that your emotions carry so much power over your physical body
157
and you need to get that in fucking check
158
and someone said on TikTok it was the best phrase I've
159
ever heard they're like you need to be a bitch
160
so you don't develop an autoimmune disorder because a lot of times
161
when you stand up for yourself when you say I'm not going to do this
162
or I'm going to take time for myself
163
or I'm going to almost be selfish with my time
164
because I know it's better for my emotions obviously like take
165
care of yourself take care of the people around you be empathetic be kind
166
but it comes to a point where it's like
167
if I don't want to do this or
168
if this is going to harm me
169
or this is not good for me I need to put
170
my foot down people will call you a bitch for
171
that people will call you a bitch
172
if you say no a lot of people will so
173
when they say be a bitch
174
so you don't develop an autoimmune disorder it means stand up for yourself
175
so your body doesn't get triggered so badly that it turns on the genes for chronic illness and autoimmune disorders.
176
I just thought this was a massive food for thought
177
and a massive like thought experiment that we could all think about
178
because think about the times you've gone through trauma
179
and how your body functioned before during and after that trauma
180
and most of you will say I developed some kind of illness after
181
that trauma or I developed a negative pattern of thinking after
182
that trauma or I had PTSD or I had CPTSD
183
or I developed chronic illness or now I have nagging headaches
184
that I can't seem to get rid of or whatever it might be
185
or have this nagging back pain that won't go away
186
because one those traumas live on the in the body
187
but two you need to let that shit go
188
and you need to learn to stand up for yourself
189
or else your body will suffer as a result anyway that's my hot take for the day
190
we're doing good wherever we are in the world I love you good morning good night good afternoon all the good stuff.
191
Love you guys.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
