    Resentment of TMS

    It is very very common to feel like you have an inner child who has been beaten down or to feel out of touch with it. In Internal Family Systems therapy we call this child the criticized child. The child that feels the pain of the critics attacks. Therapist Bonnie Weiss came up with the...

    Resentment of TMS

    Many people will suggest fighting an inner bully. But why would you want to fight with a part of yourself that will not go away? It is YOU, after all, isn't it? These parts can be healed and transformed. Watch as a monster's face evaporates into a little child who doesn't have even the most...

    Resentment of TMS

    Sounds like an inner critic voice. I think you are onto something when you say it may be a protector. Maybe by calling you a wuss it is trying to protecting you from getting hurt in some way? Or sharing yourself? I would go ahead and ask it what it is trying to protect you from. A lot of times...

    Audio Free Download: Guided Meditation - Meditation for Chronic Pain & Mindbody Syndrome

    I do agree… “In the mildest cases merely acknowledging that the pain is psychologically rather than physically induced is enough to reverse the process. (However) With increasing severity of pain, more and more intervention is required.” Dr. Sarno, The Divided Mind I would say if you are...

    Am I Mindfully Meditating Correctly?

    Being an observer is key. Noticing what is occurring or happening inside of you. The very act of labeling "thought, "image" etc. creates an atmosphere of allowance of what is. Whatever comes up is all right. Like the Rumi poem about grief and despair come knocking on our door and we great them...

    Stuck

    For me it was sitting. I couldn't even sit down for five minutes without fear that I would go into a spasm that would incapacitate me for days. How would I ever go to a movie or get on a plane? There are some lucky folk - Sarno says about 10-20% - who just learning about TMS and calling our...

    Release of negative emotions, especially anger - need advice

    I think you did a great job. It sounds like you were able to feel your feelings without letting the part of you who is angry take over. What a fantastic idea to do a video log. I would say any way that you can release your feelings -to allow yourself to fully feel them and then see if they to...
