Inspiring story. Thank you. Gives me hope and courage. To keep meditating, and working out, walking, staying physical, no matter what, so I can train my brains messages to my nervous system. When I'm in fear back and calf flare up. I journal and talk to it too.

Dear Kris, I so related to your post. I could have written the whole thing. I am exactly in your boat. I have had 15 weeks of it. and a day or two here and there, and then a month of pain. I did the SEP, I read steve o's book, i journaled. Everything from childhood to present day stresses...

It really was a whirlwind of activity for me. And so much stress and fear came up. I was at such a crossroad. I made myself for a third day in a row take hot yoga. Day three was so painful, that I wanted to cry, and then I had a breakthrough in the class. I was sweating away, unable to do...

Not my husband my ex boyfriend. Husband died 10 years ago. I have way too many other books to read at the moment, as I am a writer. One day Ill hopefully read it. Thank you.

Just do it. You would think I had the mind of an unforgiving selfish killer, and not a "sweet heart" - I don't want this hurt any more. And from everything I read, it's just your superID, the little baby in you that is inraged, and nerves got incorrectly wired. so by acknowleging those...

I am on 29. I wrote a letter to my ex, who hurt me very much. He was incredibly selfish and had addiction issues. I also had to forgive myself for staying in a relationship that 6 months in, I knew there were some things that upset me. And when i mentioned it, he said he would work on it, but...

You are so not alone. I seem to be cycling out of a lot of it, when i do things "movement" that im' afraid of, and when im tensing, I say "i have nothing but love and compassion for myself and ohers" and tell my brain to calm down my nervous system. Or I say, "listen I am dealing with my...

Yes, I youtube many of those. Thank you.

What a great story. I do two things I say to my subC "Im' not putting up with this crap, I know what you are doing, stop it. I am checking in, I have been on top of every emotion and feeling, so just stop the crap. Or "I have nothing but compassion for myself and others" Each seems to lower...

I am doing better and better with each day. I am very discplined and kind to myself at the same time. I wake up early and immediate start to meditate for 15 minutes. I listen to every youtube thing i can, on mind/body and self healing and self compassion. I also take care of what I need to...

I am so self critical. I hear you. And I am on day 23. I have not said one shaming thing about my body, simply because I get activated. I haven't done on shaming activity in 23 days. Maybe I over ate one day, which was related to feeling rejected and stressed. I identified the feeling, and...

Thank you so much for this information. Much appreciated. I really try and practice kindness to myself. All new. but it helps.
