Day 11 Forever?

[Satori]

I definitely see aspects of myself in the day 11 success story already, although I have a long way to go. I guess it makes me wonder...will the work ever be done? Or will I have to journal forever? Or will my brain get retrained? Thoughts?

Hi Satori (what a great name!),

It may feel challenging and effortful now, and it probably should, because you're learning a new way to live and look at your life and deal with symptoms. Everyone's journey is different, but as you become more adept at feeling and allowing, and more able to "ignore symptoms" the less effort this will take. It is like riding a bicycle.

Hi Satori, I’m wondering about this at the minute too. I guess this is my biggest fear and what continues to keep me in pain. I have noticed that my pain tends to be better when I’m busy and have something else to focus on. It tends to be worse on the weekends when I have more time to think about it.
