Morning Meditation from The GratiDude
The movie “The Seven-Year Itch” explored the concept that even a happily married couple after seven years of faithfulness and monogamy shield the “itch “for something different in the form of a lover or partner.
I’ve never made a correlation between this movie and the concept of cellular replacement and regeneration that happens within the human body.
According to science, the human body generates and replaces its own cells regularly, and the blended average for full body replacement was agreed to be 7 years. Not entirely accurate, but more of an average:
No, the idea that all cells in the body are replaced every seven years is a myth.
The average lifespan of a cell in the human body is between 7 and 10 years, but the rate of replacement varies depending on the cell type and organ:
Skin cells: Replaced every few weeks.
Stomach lining: Renewed every few days.
Bones: Refreshed once a decade
Skeletal muscles: Regenerate in as long as 15 years
Heart: Regenerates at a rate of about one percent a year
The human body is constantly renewing itself through mitosis and stem cells. Mitosis is when existing cells divide into two new cells, while stem cells can create copies of themselves and make new specialized cells.
Some parts of the body, like certain parts of the brain, do not regenerate. However, many areas thought not to regenerate only 10 years ago, have now been proven to regenerate.
I finally made the connection that by the time the seven-year itch kicks in all the cells from the groom at the day of his wedding would’ve changed so now he has complete license to ill and to do the nasty with a different woman. For heaven sakes, he’s not even the same anymore. How can you blame the guy? His entire body is changed!
Pretty funny concept when you look at it this way right?

This poor, married son of a bitch doesn’t know what to do. I’m going to the movies with Marilyn Monroe while his wife and kids are away on summer vacation.
The seven years cellular phenomenon also holds true for our memories and our experiences with people that have been in our lives.
This could be people that we worked with every single day for an extended period, but more often these are people that we live with intimately on a day-to-day basis and cohabitate with.
As a result of our daily interactions, we tend to make habit certain behaviors that we do in association or in conjunction with that other person. What science tells us is that when separation occurs and we are no longer with that person that we reserve certain behaviors and tendencies with, we feel a sense of emotional pain or suffering as a result of some of the confusion and distance that we trying to break those habits that were formed from our interactions with a person that is no longer with us.
This is called “learned to helplessness.”
As we are growing up, at least for me personally, I didn’t properly understand or take the time to digest or analyze, or even look at peripherally the impacts of different people in my life and what their behaviors were teaching me for good or bad.
Having these understandings helps you recognize when you are replicating or repeating patterns of behavior that you may not want to repeat.
I have written here in this blog about the time that my babysitter caught me swinging from a wine bottle when I was six or seven years old, and she almost went into shock when she saw it.
For me, I was just repeating and patterning my behavior after my father, and I was not having open conversations about which behaviors and practices would be healthy to model myself after or which behaviors could be detrimental to me if I repeated them.
It is also good to understand the long-lasting impact that people have on you in terms of your cellular memory so that you can have patience with yourself and processing the separation and the change that occurs when you’re no longer seeing the same person on the daily basis.
I separated from the mother of my kids about 17 months ago and understanding that there are certain things that I will miss or that I will have in my memory from my former wife helps me understand some confusion or some difficulties I may be experience emotionally, and I need to breathe and wait for the reveal or for a deeper understanding to happen through the passing of time.
This makes me really excited for the seven-year anniversary of me no longer drinking alcohol every day because I will have a completely alcohol-free body in about a year and a half! That’s exciting!
These scientific ideas and concepts of how energy and memories are stored in our body helps provide a little breathing room and a little space for us to understand why it can be so challenging and difficult to navigate our own dealings and emotions at times.
We only have all the invisible programming influences from society from schools, religion, and businesses, but we have all the individual fingerprints that are left on us from every single interaction and especially those interactions that are repeated over and over again with those people that are closest to us.
This also drives the point that surrounding ourselves with healthy positive people that are also dreamers help put good energy into our bodies memory and give us good reservoirs of energetic deposits that we draw from in the future.
Likewise, toxic people and unhealthy people lead poison buried in us that can seep into our groundwater or into our system as a human being, and we need to do our best to recognize those toxic waste sites within our own experiences.
We can expedite the detox process through wellness and mindfulness practices involving both moving our body, moving our mind, energy and exercising our own demons through conversations and meditations.
Therapy also helps to unstick energy and trapped energy by providing new perspectives and ways of looking at your human experience that are difficult to get to buy yourself or at times impossible.
Never be afraid to try anything and everything in the pursuit of feeling better so that you can pursue your own personal greatness.
Well, it looks like we’ve got another storm headed this way and I believe that packing up and getting the hell out is going to be prudent as this one look like it’s headed straight for Sarasota.
I will keep you all posted, however, getting out of town Monday afternoon is a wise idea unless things changed dramatically overnight tonight.
Enjoy Sunday and think about what positive loving fingerprints and energies you can contribute to all the people around you, knowing that your impact lasts a full seven years.
All that love that you’re going to share today is going to be there for so long so give everybody everything you’ve got open your heart and share that attitude of gratitude.
EVERY DAY:
Love
and
