You are welcome. It was taught to me in a mind-body program and makes a big difference.

I break the cycle with tapping (EFT). When the pain or the thoughts come, I begin to tap. "Even though I am feeling pain, I fully and completely accept myself and my body. I know these symptoms are temporary and are going away". I just repeat and tap and repeat and tap, until it loses energy...

I'll just say, "Oh boy I have a lot of coping mechanisms that have kept me sick and kept me sane". And I say that tongue in cheek.

I've broken through the anxiety again and again, and now play with awareness and feeling it. But I can't seem to escape the pattern. I've done so much MBS and mindfulness work. Damn if my mom doesn't rear her head in my guilt and people pleasing 10x a day at least. I get that it is 48 years of...

I wish my iPhone would actually let me download and save this audio vs needing to return to this page each time. It's really great and worth repeating!

Here's what I know: the pain in my spine and limb crippling is real from toxins pumped into my spinal cord during a botched diagnostic epidural. I do have that MRI and DX. But is it? Ok, it is, but not all of it. Because the Brain fear cycle can make a mountain out of a molehill. I blindly -...

Oh my gosh, pls check out Unlearn Your Pain by Dr Schubiner. Amazing 28 day MBS workbook and meditations. He and Alan work together on the new documentary they are fundraising for right now.

Oh my gosh! This lesson is like 20 memes waiting to be created! Great stuff. I find that I am a super hero at empowerment but have fallen down on outcome independence. And I tend to get a little inner parent hard on myself. But I am most successful when I see my pain as more of a cha-cha. It...

Love this. Reminds me of the maybe so, maybe not proverb. It may seem good or it may seem bad, but in reality it just is. I see how I have tortured myself in stress for no reason. Valuable lesson.

Amazing and wonderful. I so wish I had discovered MBS before I let a doctor put a needle in my spine "for diagnostic purposes" and create a real physical spinal cord disease when he punctured my spinal cord on accident. Still MBS work has taken me from 24/7 panic about what is going to happen...

Ahhh, mindfulness. I'm really embracing letting go of seeing work on myself as something to schedule and plan. I like what mindfulness means. I like - not fear or see as work - the idea of being present in my self care. I tend to see things as what needs to be conquered, like how I overcame my...

I've been trying to understand my shopping addiction for a while now. So many things, beyond even that, clicked into place in this lesson. I am self-soothing in a destructive learned pattern. But more than that, it's simply a distraction I use to avoid getting in touch with what I have labeled...
