Dear Mystic Ali: Why Do I Shrink Back From My Own Knowing?
Sep 20, 2025
Dear Mystic Ali,
I feel like I’m caught in a loop I can’t get out of. My body has been giving me serious medical issues for years now. I go to doctor after doctor, test after test, but no one can seem to give me a clear answer. Every time I leave the appointment, I feel more confused, more disheartened, like there’s something missing that the medical system can’t see.
Deep down, I sense that my intuition already knows what’s going on. Sometimes, when I get very quiet and honest with myself, I feel the truth rising in my gut. But then—it’s like I get scared of what that truth might mean. I shrink back. I second-guess myself. I run back to the safety of another test, another opinion, another dismissal.
It feels like I’m abandoning myself. I want to trust my inner wisdom, but I’m terrified of what I’ll find if I really listen. Why do I keep pulling away from my own knowing? And how do I finally lean in, instead of running back to fear?
Sincerely,
A Woman Searching for Answers
Mystic Ali Responds
Beloved, I hear the ache in your words. It’s not just the physical discomfort that wears on you — it’s the not-knowing. The medical maze keeps handing you fragments but never the whole picture. And underneath it all, I sense the deeper grief: the shrinking back when your own inner knowing starts to rise.
Here is the truth: your body is your most faithful oracle. Long before the tests, the scans, the specialists, your body whispers the story of what is happening. The fatigue, the pain, the heaviness — they are not random. They are messages. The fact that you feel the truth flicker inside your gut means you are already in dialogue with your body. The missing piece isn’t “out there.” It’s the trust to stay with yourself long enough to receive the message fully.
Why You Shrink Back
The truth always asks something of us.
It asks us to leave behind the safety of giving our power away.
It asks us to hold ourselves as the authority.
It asks us to change something we may not feel ready to change.
Shrinking back is not weakness. It’s simply your nervous system trying to protect you from stepping into the unknown. You are not failing — you are pausing at the threshold.
How to Lean In Gently
Instead of demanding yourself to “just trust,” start with small, sacred steps.
-
Place your hands on your belly.
-
Breathe deeply and whisper:
“I am safe to know the truth. I am safe to hear my body’s wisdom one breath at a time.” -
Ask one simple question:
“What do you need me to know today?” -
Receive just one thread. Don’t chase the whole tapestry at once.
Each time you do this, your body learns you will stay when it speaks. That staying is the medicine.

Final Blessing
The doctors may or may not ever give you the full answer. But your body already holds it. When you stop shrinking back, you step into the sacred role of your own healer — guided by Spirit, anchored in your intuition, walking hand in hand with the wisdom that has been within you since the beginning.
You are not missing anything. You are remembering everything.
With love,
Mystic Ali ✨
