    Finally admitting that I need help

    Hey there, TMS community. I've been dipping my toes in the water here for a while now, but I've barely engaged. Even though this is anonymous, I think I've felt shame about opening up – like I should be able to go it alone and do it myself. But I can't. I am finally admitting here that I need...

    Day 31 Boss-Anger

    The day 31 suggestion was to share about how my professional relationships may be changing because of this program. I think this may be one of the keys to my rage. I'm the boss of a 13 person company. I never expected I'd be responsible for managing people. After all, I started my company...

    Day 25 Getting back on the rails

    As a new dad going through my first holiday season with lots of travel, it has been impossible to find alone time to work on the program over the last couple of weeks. And I can feel it.

    Day 6 Progress and setbacks

    Day 6 Progress and setbacks

    Day 2 was the best day of 2017 for me. Committing to do this program and really believing the diagnoses led to my first night of the year with virtually no pain. I woke up around 4 am, like usual, but this time I had no pain and I got back to sleep after a bit. It was the first really solid...

    Day 1 2nd time around, but this time much harder.

    I had lower back pain about 5 years ago, and went through all of the traditional medical and alternative approaches before being handed the Healing Back Pain book by a friend of a friend. It worked wonders. After almost a year with excruciating pain, I was able to heal completely very quickly...
