Day 4 Pain is moving

After enduring continual pain in my hamstrings for years, I woke up last night at 12:30AM with a killer migraine. I can only think of one other time in my life I've had a migraine, and it was so brutal I vomited--I didn't vomit last night but I felt like I could have! I was so frustrated after drinking water and taking Advil didn't help and I just lied awake for hours until a thought hit me, "Oh maybe this is a *good* thing! My pain is moving?!" I have been telling myself for these first few days of this program, "My pain is all in my head..." and -- voila! -- the pain was now in my head! I finally fell asleep and woke up feeling good. Eager to get to the journaling to identify the underlying source of my pain.

 

This sounds like progress @srilankamama! You might be interested in my little Success Story which was 3 years "After Sarno"

Thanks for your active contribution to this forum Jan! I appreciate you sharing that thread, I loved what you wrote here:

Knowledge - Belief - Faith

I have knowledge about how my brain creates symptoms for reasons that are emotional rather than physical
I believe that there is nothing wrong with my body
I have faith in my own strength and ability to change my brain and heal myself

That really resonates with me <3
