20/2

predated; they support and appreciate themselves, as well, honoring their boundaries, feelings, and limits.

Working 20/2 in the Negative No one ever knows what these individuals want, not even themselves; they're too preoccupied doing what they think they are supposed to do, and they are quick to expect that others should do the same. Chronically codependent, they feel responsible for almost everything, keeping the moon and stars in place while meeting everyone's needs. Other people's whims become their demands. They "sacrifice for others" and then resent it; they tend to give too much, then resist or withdraw completely. Physically, mentally, and emotionally stressed from worrying about everyone else, they suffer from allergies and other ailments.

Life-Path Issues .X

Health Their strong, generally vigorous body and robust disposition fight off most illness, but 20/2s are prone to tension as their worry and their busy mind impose chronic, thought-produced stress on their body. Allergies may flare up in times of stress, and physical tension may obstruct the efficient working of the lymphatic portion of the immune system. Most 20/2s (like 40/4s and 22/4s) tend toward either stocky, wide bodies, reflecting their strength, or more wiry bodies that are surprisingly resilient. When excessive weight is an issue, 20/2s benefit from aerobic exercise and a low-fat diet, along with stretching, deep breathing, and relaxation or meditation training. Meditation and suppleness are very important for 2072s, but they tend to avoid both, preferring outward, expansive training for strength—a quality they already have in abundance. Most 20/2s have great potential strength but lack flexibility, so the best kind of exercise for them teaches flow, suppleness, and balance, as do ejajjee, yoga, t^j_chi, aikido, and other martial arts that emphasize stretching and relaxation. Nearly all 20/2s have close ties to the subconscious, so they benefit from hypnosis and from positive visualization, in contrast to the negative fantasies and concerns to which they sometimes fall prey. 157
