You're a bit, shall we say, reserved with your body. You hold your mind aloof; you like to feel in control, and as a result you don't indulge in a full range of sensory experience.
You don't often get sick, but you could be hit with a serious illness later in life that you didn't see coming. When your body is uncomfortable, you disconnect from the sensation. This gets you through the day, but it means you're likely to ignore signals that are giving you good information.

You're only halfway in this world! You tend toward the ascetic, the cranial, and the mystical. Your range of creative and intellectual experience is immense; your level of physical experience, not so much. You expect your body to be subordinate to your will; occasionally, your body rebels.
You respond to physical discomfort by trying to transcend it; occasionally you get into negative feedback loops when your body won't cooperate.
You could benefit by being a little kinder to your body. It's not evil; it's not even bad. It's got things to tell you which will even enrich your creativity, insight and wisdom. Come down and get grounded!

You, my dear, are extremely sensitive, to the point where it causes you great pain. There is most likely some severe trauma in your past. You are not fully present in your body; as a result, you're spiritually open to a panorama of cosmic forces without being adequately protected.
As a result of this incomplete grounding, you and your body are engaged in a state of perpetual war, with one another and with the rest of the physical world. You vacillate between over-identifying with your body's sensitivities, trying to control your environment with no perception of boundaries, and trying to withdraw from the situation completely.
In order for you to enter fully into your body, you need to feel (and be) safe. This is a long-term process which may require help from a variety of healers. Don't give up, however; your sensitivity can be your greatest strength, once you develop the skills to manage it. Profile C
Or even this one:
For 17% you are: Epicurean
Your relationship with your body is a rich and harmonious one. You are alive to the nuances of physical experience, and this enhances your health and your creativity.
It's possible for you to be overly affected by physical discomfort, and to use it as an excuse for laziness. Make sure you develop habits of physical discipline (read: diet and exercise) in order to maintain both your health and your mental acuity. Profile D
Or even this one:
For 0% you are: Warrior
Your relationship with your body is an aggressive one. You expect it to perform according to the dictates of your will, and can be harsh with it when it doesn't live up to your standards. You respond to discomfort by trying to power through it; your body must send LOUD signals in order to be heard.
You require intensity of experience, and can be oblivious to the nuances of your surroundings. If you take some time to slow down and develop a more conversational relationship with your body, you'll be shocked at the payoff. You'll also probably extend your lifespan by a decade or two. Profile E
