I'm about half-way through the program. I've had some success with the chronic back pain I've had for nearly two decades. That's really good news. But I am disappointed and frustrated to experience symptoms I have never had before -- such as a sudden bout of plantar fasciitis; dry eye and...

A question to ponder on Day #18 is to look back over previous journal entries and ask, What emotions are most prevalent? I might have said something else if I hadn't actually looked, but what I see is Anxiety. And I can see that it has always been there, from childhood on . . . that word was...
