I almost hate to report this, for fear of jinxing myself. lol. But it’s been 2 1/2 years since my hands and arms cramped up as a final symptom on a pile of them that added up to a very stressed out nervous system.
My whole body is loosening very slowly, and mostly only noticeable to me. I can bend my legs in bed now. They’ve stopped cramping all night long and stiffening in the morning. My hands are about 50-75% looser. Not fully back, but my gosh, it feels amazing! One benefit of losing so much, is the amazing JOY you feel to get things back again!
It’s hard to say exactly what brought this healing all on recently. I think it’s just the summation of all the work I’ve done for the past more than 3 years. The Self exploration. Change, change, change. Letting go. Learning to LISTEN to myself. Really listen. Do I like this or hate this? Do I want this? No? Get rid of it.
Learning to FEEL emotions in my body. I can honestly say this was (still is) like learning a foreign language.
Dumping so so much crap from out of my reservoir of emotional pain. Quieting down. I’m loving a host of methods of calming. They are key. EFT tapping I hated 2 years ago. Now I love it. Also meditating to music designed for meditation.
Your body gets stuck. You have to help it get unstuck. These are all just simple ways of describing a very complicated journey. But I will say to anyone and everyone: never give up. Just keep going. Seeds of healing are growing beneath the surface. When they’re ready, healing will be evident in your life. Your body and mind WANT to heal. This forum has been a lifesaver and all the folks who have patiently guided me. You know who you are.
thank you!
