AI vs Intuition

I was reading through a list of up and coming healthy wearables. It is no doubt that they will bring lot of improvement in health for a lot of people. Still, the idea of using so much AI, made me think of how far we got removed from LISTENING to the needs of our own bodies.

Women, for centuries, were able to feel exactly when they are ovulating. It was a built in ability. We long lost it. Now we need tests and wearable devices to let us know when we are ovulating.

SAME WITH SLEEP.

We are coming up with a device to put on our head so our sleep improves. But isn’t sleep SOMETHING OUR BODIES DO WHEN TIRED. The questions we should be asking ourselves is: WHY DID WE LOSE OUR ABILITY TO SLEEP?

SAME WITH DIETS

We have DNA tests telling us what foods to eat,but our bodies know exactly what we need to consume and when. Cravings and hunger are tell signs of that.

Alas, our taste senses are distorted by artificial foods. Instead of craving an apple or a food that comes from the earth,unaltered, we crave our favorite fast foods. it’s so accessible, we eat when we are not even that hungry.

Not all is lost yet. We came with a manual. That manual is knowledge passed down with indigenous people, Who preserved it through colonization. That manual is also ancient spirituality of the East, that western society never took seriously. We can still turn to that knowledge before we give up our power to ai and COMPLETELY loose our intuition.
