Day 42

[TheWayBackUp]

Today was the last day of my program.

The big thing I learned was to turn inward to emotions when I have pain rather than outward to physical symptoms.

The other thing I learned is that it is more important that I enjoy my life than whether or not I am in pain at a given moment.

The less I worry about the pain, the less it bothers me, and it usually feels less strong or even goes away as well.

Also I learned my pain likes to move

This was a great program.

What will you do know? Has the pain gone away now?

My main pain areas, yes. I have new pain in other places, but it's not as bad. I'm going to do more journaling and thinking and also resume physical activity without fear.

It sounds as if you are getting there. Good luck

Thank you so much! I agree with you. I will be on the forum still. I want to be a part of it. Today I was able to do things I had thought I was gonna 'give up' for good. It was a good day. Peace.
