Today I find myself struggling emotionally with this work . Maybe I’m being inpatient with the progress and I know I need to give it time as I’ve only been on this Mindbody journey since the end of Feb 2022 . I’ve read the books , I’m seeing a TMS therapist virtually, I’ve resumed some physical...

Thanks for your reply. I’m mostly using it as a form or stress release and I’m pairing it with yoga . I think it’s to be able to Go into a deeper mindset of setting intentions and trying to relax my busy mind .

Just curious if anyone has tried Reiki and if you have how did it work out for you?

You’re very welcome! Don’t ever think you’re alone with this awful pain , I completely understand what it feels like mentally and physically and so do all the others in this group. It’s a prob the worst thing I have ever gone through mentally . There are a few other things you can do to immerse...

Need some advice , been following this new mindset for close to 3 weeks and have seen a huge reduction in my lower back pain. I just vacuumed my house and I can feel the pain increasing , how do I handle this ?? I should note that I have been slowly returning to do things around the house and...

thank you so much! I completely agree with you about how challenging and draining it is and I find the older I get i lack the patience I once had . It’s a vicious circle . I am going to have to dig deep in order to find ways to cope in this challenging environment. Thank you again for your...

Thank you , I think I needed to hear this from Someone that has walked this road .

I’m on day 9 of the structured education program and I’ve been reading both books . John Sarno and Alan Gordon. I read everything I can get my hands on and I’ve also been doing gentle yoga . My pain has reduced so much , I would say I feel 80% better . I have had awful lower back pain for over 3...
