The parable of Michael Jordan – I believe I can fly…

Many of us know the song, inspired by famous American basketball player, Michael Jordan, ‘I Believe I Can Fly’.  In it he teaches us that he believes he can ‘fly’, that he can ‘touch the sky’.  In an interview on CNN shortly after the release of the song and an associated movie, Jordan explained that the belief he could achieve anything was installed in him by his father.  He explained that from an early age, his father would play basketball with him daily.  But, they didn’t just play; Jordan’s father would cut the height of the basketball stand so that Michael would always succeed.  Jordan’s father would constantly teach his son that he could achieve anything.  Michael Jordan is widely regarded as the world’s greatest ever basketball player.  He could literally ‘fly’ as he took to the air during games to score.

Well, you may not realise this, but your Gut (consisting of your stomach, pancreas, intestines and your micro biome – your gut bacteria) has such a close relationship to your Brain and influences it so much that many specialists in this area of medicine refer to the Gut as the ‘Second Brain’.

My Kind of Bodyguard

There was a movie I once watched years ago about a bodyguard.  He went to school with a young boy and protected him.  He didn’t speak at all – but he would push bullies out of the way, clean a place on the cafeteria table for the boy and even carry his heavy school bag for him.  If only I had someone like this looking after me when I was at school!!

Well, we all kind of do have our very own silent bodyguard, protecting and supporting us from moment to moment. And it’s called our Liver…
