Trying the same techniques on the parts of your body that feel physical pain can sometimes be really helpful as well. It's the best technique I know of to figure out if the physical pain is partially or totally caused by some unconscious emotions. Probably the fastest way to eliminate such pains I found as well. The Power of Focusing by Ann Weiser Cornell This book gives lots of examples of the above technique. I found it very helpful in learning how to do the focusing after I read the previous book, which doesn't have as many examples. I think you need to read the other book first though, because this book doesn't explain the general principles very well. The technique is a general one for psychological problems. The second book is the only one to have a concrete example of the technique applied to psychogenic problems. [/quote]   Check here to include your profile signature.
