    need some help/support here please...

    Thank you all! So it sounds like journaling would be a wise thing to do but ignoring it may also be ok. And yes conditioning is hard to override- I am so used to thinking that I MUST get a certain amount of sleep or I will for sure get a migraine- but I KNOW that’s not true (or no longer true)...

    need some help/support here please...

    I finished the educational program a couple of weeks ago, and my results have been outstanding. I have tried literally everything for my chronic migraines the past couple of decades, including forays into Sarno's world, but for some reason this past summer upon discovering this particular...

    can somebody please explain how this character trait can lead to TMS?

    Hmm… I’m still Not sure I’m getting it. Is it because being judgmental is a form of fighting reality? A non acceptance of what is? And even so- that doesn’t really feel like a repressed emotion though.

    can somebody please explain how this character trait can lead to TMS?

    In Monte Heuftle's book, he says this about this character trait: Judging: Monte argues that by judging people, one is seeking to ignore their own feelings and present situation. By focusing on someone's faults one is repressing how they feel about themselves and not expressing their own...

    endlessing reading about TMS

    Funny enough, I'm on Day 27 of the program which links to Relapser's curse - there is hope, by Skizzik.. I feel like he describes exactly what I am talking about; the endless reading about TMS, reviewing everyone else's progress in this program while feeling stuck yourself. What I meant by...

    I'm just curious if I'm the only one using endless fascination and reading about TMS as an excuse not to actually do the work:/.....

    Clean thinking and Trivialities

    this leads me to the question though- isn't the shrugging off the trivialities repression? If I am truly scared, or hurt by something 'small' one does to me, and I determinedly focus my attention on other things as to not allow it to bother me, isn't that me not fully feeling my feelings? I...

    Journaling Technique: What is your TMS telling you?

    Thank you Jan. I really am ok, though I will admit that my stomach is turning almost constantly. I know this about being a caregiver, and like I said, so much of my journaling has been centered around my resentment and worry over my husbands ups and downs. it is hard bc it makes me feel so...

    Journaling Technique: What is your TMS telling you?

    this was so interesting for me. I just happened apon this post while searching for more journaling information and literally as soon as I read it my thought was that I feel the pain of my chronic headaches as a Giant who is literally crushing my skull by stepping on it. and I just know...
