The Power Of Listening To Your Inner Voice
By Ronit
If there is one gift we can give ourselves, it is the gift of listening to our inner voice. At a very early age I recognized that the different voices I was hearing, both from within and outside of me, were at conflict with one another. I was receiving messages from my parents, my teachers, my friends, my neighbors, my siblings, the media and myself. Each communication came at me as if it was the truth. Every expression had its own perspective, its own agenda. Often completely at odds with one another, collectively they brought much confusion and raised great fear in me. As I grew older, I became more aware of my constant inner turmoil, what to do? Who to be? What’s right? What’s wrong? Where is the truth? What is the truth? Is there truth?
These questions kept bombarding my mind, causing me great emotional distress. I could hear the little voice in me begging me to be true to myself. I began to listen intently to what I was feeling, thinking. The more I listened, the more I began to distinguish between the differing voices and messages. I started separating my voices from other voices. It became apparent to me that some of the beliefs and opinions of my parents, my teachers, my friends, etc., were not necessarily my beliefs. For example, when I was nine years old, in school in Israel, our teacher was talking about the Ten Commandments. She stated that God gave people these Ten Commandments because human beings were essentially evil and needed rules to control their bad behavior. She said that we needed to be socialized or we would harm others. I remember sitting in that class listening to her. What she was saying did not resonate with me. I looked inside myself and did not experience evil. I felt that I was a good human being and cared about others. I did not agree that I was evil and needed rules in order to be a good person. I noted that since I do not feel I am evil, and since I am a human being, then other human beings were not evil either. I dismissed her opinion and embraced mine.
This self-exploration of checking in with my internal voice when I heard a particular point of view, contributed to my ability to develop my own sense of self. I developed the capacity to listen to what others were saying, bring it inside of me and, depending on what I truly felt, confirm or reject parts of their perspective (Rarely did I reject all of their perspective. I could usually find some common ground). This process quickly evolved into my second nature. It became my path to recognizing who I am, what I think, and feel. I began to implicitly trust my inner voice. Whenever I failed to heed its message, due to fear of rejection or a desire to avoid a confrontation, this little voice would not let me be. It would create so much discomfort in me that I would have no choice but to reclaim it. In other words, it felt more uncomfortable to conform to others’ opinions than to ignore mine.
As time passed, making the difficult choices to remain true to myself grew easier. The more I listened, the better I understood, the more solid I felt in my body, the greater my ability to stand up for my truth no matter what the cost. This is not an easy thing to do. Sometimes the costs were great, like when I stood up to my boss when I did not agree with his treatment of others, resulting in losing my job. Invariably, I developed an extraordinary strong sense of self. With that came the understanding that my responsibility in this lifetime is to be true to myself and act according to my inner guide. I came here to live my life, not someone else’s life. I came here to discover my essence and express it in the world in my unique way. This insight brought with it a tremendous amount of freedom, and yes, responsibility.
I think part of listening to ourselves is actually about knowing ourselves. Sometimes our inner voice nags us or drives us from a position of fear -- which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Once we take the time to listen to ourselves we begin to learn who we are and why our inner voice tells us what it does. Then we learn to distinguish when the voice serves our needs and when it doesn't.
Many of us don't like ourselves and spend so much time trying to be something else that we become strangers to ourselves and never learn what there could be to like. We find it hard to see what others could like in us or why others would listen. We try to sound like people we think sound good and we end up listening to that voice instead. Learning to listen to ourselves is a life long process seldom valued by ourselves or encouraged by the people around us.

20歳代をはじめとする若い女性の抜け毛は、色々な起因やきっかけに応じて生じてしまう可能性があります。
妊婦の髪の毛は、分娩準備が理由で出てくるエストロゲンなどを含んだ女性ホルモンによって成長期がキープされ、抜け毛が減ります。
子を宿ると女はホルモンバランスが激変します。女性ホルモンの分泌量が増加し、それによってヘアサイクルの発育期が長くなるうえ、退行期にとどまって、頭髪が抜けずに残るからです。
更年期障害の女にもたくさん見られますが、これにしたって更年期になってホルモンバランスが変わることに起因するものといえるのです。
