Tired Of Fine? Let Your Energy Lead You Somewhere Better
Why Your Life Feels Just “Fine”—and How to Stop Settling for It
Most of us were taught to live from the neck up.
Make the “right” choice. Think it through. Be logical. Be responsible.
Check the pros and cons. Do what makes sense.
And while the mind is a brilliant tool, it was never meant to lead on its own.
If your life feels fine—like nothing’s wrong, but something’s missing—you’re not alone.
Fine is often what happens when we’ve disconnected from the deeper intelligence of the body.
The place where clarity lives
The place where desire lives.
Because here’s the truth:
Your desires don’t speak in words.
They speak in energy.
They show up as a spark. A pull. A full-body yes.
And if you want to start living from something more real than “fine,” you have to learn how to hear that signal again.
So what’s the way back?
Start working with your energy—not against it.
And that begins with one key question:
What does a true “yes” feel like for you?
What does a true “no” feel like?
Step 1: Feel Your Yes and No
Let’s rebuild that connection by practicing how your energy speaks through sensation.
Think of something you love—a favorite person, place, or memory.
Close your eyes. Notice the feeling in your body.
Is it warm? Light? Expansive? Where do you feel it?Now think of something you don’t like.
What shifts? Do you feel tightness? Heaviness? A pulling away?
That’s your body showing you its internal compass.
It’s always been there—you just may have forgotten how to hear it.
Step 2: Start Small, Start Low-Stakes
Now that you’ve tuned in to your yes and no, it’s time to use that information.
Not in big, dramatic decisions—yet.
Start in simple, everyday moments:
When choosing what to wear, pause.
Which shirt feels like a yes?On your walk, which direction feels more open, curious, or alive?
When ordering food or replying to a text—what feels like a gentle pull forward?

These little choices are where the practice begins.
You’re retraining yourself to listen to energy instead of logic.
To follow the feeling, not the fear.
And if you don’t feel anything at first? That’s okay.
Most of us are so disconnected from our bodies, we forget how to sense at all.
So here’s your permission: just guess.
Guessing with the body is better than overthinking with the mind.
The more you practice, the clearer the signals become.
And before you know it, “fine” will no longer cut it.
Because you’ll have started choosing things that feel true, that feel alive.
And that’s how you begin building a life that’s not just fine…
But fully felt.
