You're not a machine

"My joints are wearing out." "I think I need a tune-up." "Time to change the oil and rotate the tires."

Sound familiar? We've been conditioned to think of our bodies like the cars we drove in high school: break down, fix parts, and keep going until the next problem.

But here's what my engineering background taught me: you're not a 1995 Honda Civic. You can't just swap out parts and expect everything to work perfectly.

Why the Car Analogy Falls Apart

You're Electric, Not Mechanical Your body runs on energy, not just fuel. There's a constant conversation happening between your organs, nervous system, and cells. This isn't about "filling up the tank.” It's about maintaining energetic balance and flow.

Fuel Isn't Just Calories If it were only about calories in, calories out, everyone eating "enough" would feel amazing. But food carries frequency. The quality of what you eat, and how your body responds to it, matters infinitely more than the numbers on a nutrition label.

Parts Don't Just Wear Out Unlike a transmission that eventually gives out, your body is always working to repair and regenerate. If something feels like it's "breaking down," it's not the end. It's a message. You can totally support the healing process and rebuild.

You Don't Need Tune-ups, You Need Balance A car goes in for a quick oil change and it's good to go. Your body doesn't work like that. Healing takes time, feedback, and a deeper look at what's out of sync energetically and emotionally.

Everything Is Connected Your liver isn't a filter you swap out. Your hormones aren't belts you replace when they’re worn. Every system in your body is interconnected, which means healing one area often starts with supporting another entirely.

Think Systems, Not Parts

Instead of asking "What's broken and how do I fix it?" try asking "What does my body need to restore balance and flow?"

Support your body's energy, not just its output. Get curious about what your symptoms are trying to communicate. Treat your body like the intelligent, self-healing system it actually is.
