When Your Body Says "Not Yet": Understanding the Repair Order You Can't Control

The Frustration No One Talks About
You've been doing the work for three weeks. Your chronic pain is still there, but suddenly you're sleeping through the night for the first time in years. Is that progress or a distraction? Dr. Medge Jaspan, founder of Medge Jaspan Wellness, hears this
confusion constantly—and her answer surprises people. Most practitioners would
redirect you back to your original goal. Dr. Medge does the opposite: she teaches you to
read what your body is actually working on. That sleep improvement isn't random. It's
your body making a strategic choice about what needs fixing first. This post explores
why your body ignores your agenda, what it's actually working on when you're not
seeing the change, you want, and how to read the signals that mean repair is
happening—even when it doesn't look like you expected.
What: Your Body Runs Triage, not a Wish List
Most people approach healing like a menu: "I'll take less pain, more energy, and better
focus, please. " Your body approaches it like an emergency room: what's bleeding out?
What's about to fail? What's blocking everything else?
Dr. Medge works with this biological reality, not against it. She frames her entire
approach around a simple principle: the body already knows what to do. As she explains
to clients who want detailed protocols and rigid timelines, "When you respect your inner
process, healing happens naturally. You're not forcing anything." This means she's not
pushing your body toward a predetermined outcome. She's creating conditions were
your body's intelligence can operate without interference—and that intelligence has
access to data you don't.
What Gets Priority—And Why It's Not What You'd Choose
Here's what most people miss: your body doesn't care about your to-do list. It cares
about systemic stability. Dr. Medge sees this play out constantly with clients who come
in for one issue but experience improvement somewhere completely different first. She
explains the logic to every new client: if there's an underlying liver burden, "the energy
will go first restoring the liver. Because this is one of the systems that need more energy
and that need more help." You might have come in for breast cancer support, but if your
liver is struggling to process toxins, clear hormones, and manage inflammation, that's
the bottleneck. Fix that first, and suddenly the body has resources to address what you
originally wanted help with.
The frustration comes from not understanding this sequence. You're tracking joint pain
while your body is quietly restoring sleep architecture, calming systemic inflammation,
and improving detoxification. Those aren't detours—they're prerequisites.
Why: The Body Knows What You Don't
While your conscious mind tracks symptoms, something deeper drives the repair
sequence: survival architecture. Your body doesn't care about your goals. It cares about
keeping you alive and functional. Building on this understanding, what looks like
"Ignoring your problem" is actually sophisticated resource allocation.
The Hidden Information Your Body Is Using
Your nervous system monitors thousands of data points you'll never consciously
register: cortisol rhythms, inflammatory cytokine levels, mitochondrial efficiency, gut
barrier integrity, blood sugar stability, neurotransmitter balance. When it decides to
improve your sleep before your brain fog, it's because sleep deprivation is creating a
cascade of problems—immune suppression, poor glucose regulation, impaired memory
consolidation, elevated inflammation. Fix sleep, and a dozen downstream issues get
easier to address.
Dr. Medge describes her role in simple terms: "We are here to help the cell stay stronger.
We are here to promote regeneration. What we do helps them be stronger because we
are working at the cellular level." This isn't about treating symptoms or even treating
conditions. It's about restoring the basic infrastructure—cellular communication, energy
production, waste removal—so the body can organize its own repair sequence
intelligently.
When "Nothing's Happening" Actually Means Everything's Shifting
This is where most people quit. They don't see their target symptom budge, so they assume nothing's working. But Dr. Medge has watched this pattern for years and knows what actually predicts success. She shares a story that illustrates the disconnect: A
client came in for regular sessions and eventually got equipment to continue treatment
at home. After several months, her heart physician reviewed her latest labs and said, "I
don't know what you did, but your numbers are so amazing." The client wasn't focused
on heart numbers. She was tracking how she felt—and the internal repair showed up in
clinical markers her physician could measure.
The key is learning to recognize progress in forms you weren't expecting. Dr. Medge
teaches clients to track differently: "I ask how they feel, how they're working, how they're
sleeping. That's how we monitor real change. "These lived outcomes—sleep
consolidation, steady energy, mental clarity, emotional resilience—are the reliable early
signals that cellular repair is underway. Once you understand this foundation, the
implementation becomes straightforward: track what's actually improving, not just what
you wish would improve.
How: Reading the Signals Your Body Is Sending
Once you understand the concept, the practical application becomes simple. Here's
how to work with your body's priorities instead of fighting them:
Week 1-2: Notice What Shifts First
Pay attention to sleep quality, energy patterns, and mood stability—not your target
symptom yet. Dr. Medge's approach centers on removing interference so the body can
self-organize. As she describes it, she's been "finding better protocols to enhance cell
reparation, cell regeneration "by understanding how systems work together. When one
system calms, others can follow. Write down what improves. This is data.
Week 3-4: Track the Foundational Systems
Look for changes in digestion, skin clarity, headache frequency, and recovery after
activity. These signal that inflammation is dropping, detox pathways are opening, and
your body is shifting from defense to maintenance. Your original complaint might not
budge yet—and that's fine. The body is still working on prerequisites.
Week 5-6: Watch for Capacity Increases
This is when most people notice they can do more without crashing. Mental clarity
improves. Physical stamina steadies. Emotional reactivity drops. You're not just "feeling
better "—your system has more bandwidth because it's not burning energy on crisis
management. Dr. Medge observes this shift in clients constantly: "./I observe how they
are walking when they arrive, the tone of their skin, how they put their head, how they
breathe." The changes are visible to someone who knows what to look for—and you can learn to track them yourself.
The One Practice That Changes Everything
Stop asking, "Is my main problem better? "Start asking, "What is my body working on
right now?" Dr. Medge frames the work around conscious living—understanding that
every choice you make impacts how your body functions and heals. This means paying
attention—really paying attention—to what shifts. Keep a simple log: sleep quality,
energy level, mood stability, digestion, pain level, mental clarity. Rate each daily on a 1-
10 scale. You'll see patterns your conscious attention would miss.

Let the Body Lead, Track What Actually Moves
Your body doesn't heal in the order you'd prefer. It heals in the order that creates
stability and capacity for what comes next. When you stop forcing your agenda and
start reading the signals, you'll see that "nothing's happening" actually means
"everything's shifting—just not where you're looking."
The sleep improvement, the steadier mood, the easier digestion—these aren't consolation prizes. They're the foundation being rebuilt so the structure can hold. Ready to stop fighting your body's priorities and start working with them?
