Shownotes

What if your anxiety, exhaustion, muscle tension, digestive issues, or chronic stress weren't random at all?

What if your body has been trying to communicate with you for years—and you simply haven't been taught how to listen?

In this Tammy's Take, Tammy Vincent builds on her conversation with trauma integration specialist Hannah Dalby and explores one of the most overlooked parts of healing: the messages your body is constantly sending you.

You'll discover why symptoms are often signals, how your nervous system stores unresolved stress, and why curiosity—not self-judgment—is the first step toward healing.

Tammy also shares how she uses AO Biofrequency Voice Scans as a tool to help clients identify patterns of stress in the body and begin meaningful conversations about where support may be needed. While the scan is not a medical diagnostic tool, it can provide another lens for exploring how chronic stress may be showing up in the body.

In this episode you'll learn:

  • Why your body is always communicating with you
  • The difference between symptoms and signals
  • How chronic stress affects the nervous system
  • Why emotional patterns often show up physically
  • Three powerful questions to ask when your body is trying to get your attention
  • How curiosity creates healing while judgment keeps us stuck
  • How Tammy incorporates AO Biofrequency Voice Scans into her coaching process

If you've ever wondered why your body keeps reacting the way it does, this episode will help you begin listening with compassion instead of frustration.

Speaker:

Well, hello everybody.

2

:

Welcome to another episode of

Tammy's Takes, where we take powerful

3

:

conversations with our guests and

turn them into practical strategies

4

:

you can use right here, right now.

5

:

So today, I wanna talk about something

that Hannah Dalby and I talked about

6

:

yesterday, and it hit , so close to

home actually, and it's something that

7

:

I think about all the time, and it's

something that I talk about all the time.

8

:

I think it's really one of the

biggest mindset shifts anyone can

9

:

make on their healing journey.

10

:

She talked about how our bodies

are constantly communicating with

11

:

us, and I could not agree more.

12

:

You hear me say it all the time, guys.

13

:

Get out of your head and into your bodies.

14

:

I tell them, I tell everybody I talk to,

your body is speaking a language, and

15

:

nobody has ever been taught how to speak

that language, how to understand it.

16

:

Think about it.

17

:

How many times have you

heard people say this?

18

:

And I want you to put in the comments or

write below or tap on the screen or do

19

:

whatever you gotta do if you have ever

said these words: I don't know why I'm so

20

:

exhausted, or I don't know why my stomach

hurts all the time, or I don't know why

21

:

my shoulders are tight, or I don't wanna

know why my neck hurts, or I don't know

22

:

why I wake up at 3:00 every morning, or

I don't know why I just feel anxious when

23

:

nothing is actually wrong How many of

you have said those things to yourself?

24

:

I know so many of us have.

25

:

But what if those things aren't random?

26

:

What if it's not your body hurting, and

it's not your body trying to betray you?

27

:

What if it's your body

trying to tell you something?

28

:

I spent years believing that it

was my body working against me.

29

:

I thought anxiety was my enemy.

30

:

Everything was my enemy.

31

:

My bleeding ulcers were my enemy.

32

:

Panic attacks were the enemy.

33

:

Inflammation was the enemy.

34

:

But what I have learned through my

own healing, through coaching hundreds

35

:

of people, and through using bio

frequency technology, is that your body

36

:

is actually incredibly intelligent.

37

:

It doesn't just create

symptoms for no reason.

38

:

Symptoms are often, and

honestly most likely, signals.

39

:

So before I go any further, I do

wanna be very clear about something.

40

:

that doesn't mean that all symptoms

are emotional, your bodies are

41

:

amazing, complex machines, and if

something is wrong, you still need to

42

:

go talk to your healthcare provider

if something doesn't feel right.

43

:

But what I'm saying is sometimes

we've become so disconnected from

44

:

ourselves that we stop asking what our

body might be trying to communicate.

45

:

So instead of listening, what do we do?

46

:

What do we do to our bodies?

47

:

Think about that.

48

:

All things that are not

good for our bodies.

49

:

We silence it.

50

:

We bury it.

51

:

We push through.

52

:

If we're tired, what do we do?

53

:

We grab another cup of

coffee or an energy drink.

54

:

If something hurts, we take a

pill to get rid of the pain.

55

:

We distract ourselves.

56

:

We stay busy.

57

:

And what happens?

58

:

Eventually, our body

speaks a little louder.

59

:

It screams.

60

:

One of my favorite sayings, and

you've probably heard me say it

61

:

on many, many podcasts, is the

body whispers before it screams.

62

:

The problem is most of us

don't hear the whispers.

63

:

We wait until it's screaming.

64

:

Think about your own life, right?

65

:

So let's say something is going on at work

and you're getting a little overwhelmed.

66

:

How many of you notice

that your jaw is clenched?

67

:

Or what if you're stressed out and

somebody's talking to you, have you ever

68

:

noticed that your shoulders literally

will creep up almost to your ears?

69

:

And what about if you're getting ready

to have an uncomfortable conversation

70

:

with someone, whether it's at work,

a coworker, whether it's with your

71

:

spouse, whether it's with your child.

72

:

Think about that feeling in your belly.

73

:

You get that knot in your stomach, right?

74

:

What about, too, and this is a big one,

and so many of us don't pay attention

75

:

to this, what about when you're spending

time with someone and after you leave

76

:

that conversation or you leave that

activity, you are absolutely exhausted?

77

:

Maybe, , just maybe that

person is draining your energy,

78

:

physically draining your energy.

79

:

Guys, these are not weaknesses.

80

:

These are messages.

81

:

Your nervous system is talking.

82

:

Your body is talking to you.

83

:

And the question should not be,

"Why is my body doing this?"

84

:

The better question should

be, "What the hell is my body

85

:

trying to protect me from?"

86

:

That one question can change everything.

87

:

One of the tools I use with my clients

is an AO BioFrequency Voice Scan.

88

:

Now, I wanna explain a little bit about

it, but I do absolutely love this tool.

89

:

It is not there to diagnose disease.

90

:

It does not replace your doctor.

91

:

It doesn't replace medical testing.

92

:

If something is wrong, you need to go to

the doctor, you need to get blood work.

93

:

It is not diagnostic.

94

:

It is energetic patterns

that are in your body.

95

:

But what it does is it gives us

another lens to explore where your body

96

:

might be under stress, what patterns

might actually deserve a closer look.

97

:

, It takes 10 seconds of your voice, and it

analyzes 171,000 different frequencies in

98

:

your body, and it checks for imbalances.

99

:

So some of the things that I've noticed

with a lot of my clients, and even with

100

:

myself when I do the frequency scan,

is that you're gonna notice themes

101

:

around chronic stress, maybe some

digestive stress, sometimes inflammation.

102

:

Sometimes your nervous system will

look like it's been running on high for

103

:

years, but honestly, sometimes it has.

104

:

That's why people come to

me to begin with, right?

105

:

then there's also, kind of

the emotional aspect of it.

106

:

Sometimes we see those emotional

patterns that line up perfectly with

107

:

what you've been experiencing, and

it's not because the scan is magic

108

:

It's honestly because the body is

leaving clues, and they are energetic

109

:

clues because everything is energy.

110

:

I always tell my clients when

I work with them, the scan

111

:

doesn't tell your story, you do.

112

:

The scan literally just helps

us ask better questions.

113

:

So if something shows up, like

good example is every time I eat

114

:

peanut butter, it shows up with

gallbladders, gallbladder markers.

115

:

So instead of thinking there's something

wrong with my gallbladder, maybe I

116

:

should be like, "Huh, interesting.

117

:

Every time I eat peanut butter, it

shows up with gallbladder markers.

118

:

Maybe just possibly my body doesn't

like digesting peanut butter."

119

:

So there's different examples like that,

and I can give you hundreds of them.

120

:

But you wanna look at this

with curiosity, not judgment.

121

:

You don't wanna get angry.

122

:

You don't wanna look at different

parts of it and freak out about it.

123

:

But what I want you to do is I

want you to picture this, right?

124

:

I want you to picture walking into

your house one day, and you hear

125

:

the smoke alarm going off, right?

126

:

You hear boo, boo, boo, big loud alarm.

127

:

Are you going to go into the room where

the smoke alarm is going off and rip

128

:

it out because the noise is annoying?

129

:

Of course not.

130

:

You're gonna look for the fire.

131

:

That's what the scan does.

132

:

That's how you look at symptoms, and

you look at these Energetic imbalances.

133

:

They're not the fire.

134

:

The scan is not the fire.

135

:

The scan is the smoke alarm.

136

:

So it's inviting us to take a deeper look.

137

:

So here's something I

want you to try this week.

138

:

The next time you notice any kind

of tension, so it could be tension,

139

:

stress, pain, fatigue, even an emotional

reaction to something, a trigger

140

:

or something, I want you to pause.

141

:

I want you to put one hand over the

place where you feel that tension or

142

:

that stress or, and that anxiousness.

143

:

I want you to take a slow breath, and I

want you to ask yourself three questions.

144

:

One, what am I feeling in my body?

145

:

Not what am I thinking, but

what am I actually feeling?

146

:

Is it tight?

147

:

Does it feel heavy, hot,

cold, buzzing, numb?

148

:

Just give it dimension.

149

:

Give it shape.

150

:

Give it something tangible,

but just notice it.

151

:

Two, I want you to ask yourself,

when have I felt this before?

152

:

Not necessarily the exact same situation,

but the same feeling in your body

153

:

because your body remembers feelings

long before your mind remembers stories.

154

:

And three, … If this part

of my body could speak, what

155

:

would it be trying to tell me?

156

:

Don't force an answer.

157

:

Just get curious because curiosity

opens doors that judgments slam shut.

158

:

Curiosity also, in my opinion,

makes everything a little softer.

159

:

Your body has literally been giving you

these signals since the day you were born.

160

:

It's carried every single joy, every

heartbreak, every disappointment, every

161

:

celebration, every trauma, every victory.

162

:

Your body has literally carried

all of this, and it's never

163

:

stopped trying to protect you.

164

:

So why would you think it would

stop trying to protect you now?

165

:

It won't.

166

:

It never will, and it never has.

167

:

So maybe, just maybe, instead of fighting

your body, become a partner to your body.

168

:

Listen to it instead of

trying to silence it.

169

:

Become curious instead of being

critical because I truly believe

170

:

your body isn't your enemy.

171

:

It's actually one of

your greatest teachers.

172

:

If you just learn to listen to what those

things are trying to tell you, you might

173

:

be able to heal some of those things,

and I might be able to help you do that.

174

:

Honestly, I would love to.

175

:

So if today's episode made you curious

about what your own body might be

176

:

communicating, I would love to invite

you to schedule a complimentary call.

177

:

Just book a call in the link

below, have one of the scans done.

178

:

If nothing else, it's entertainment.

179

:

You get back some good balancing

harmonics and things that are good

180

:

for calming your nervous system.

181

:

I'll put the links in the show notes,

and hopefully you'll check it out.

182

:

until next time, remember, your

body is not working against you.

183

:

It's been trying to protect

you all along, the entire time.

184

:

The question is when the heck

are we going to stop judging

185

:

and start actually listening?

186

:

So until next time, guys, I will see

you back here and hope you have a

187

:

blessed, safe, healthy, happy day.

188

:

Love you all.

189

:

Have a good day.

190

:

Bye.
