Posted - 09/06/2006 : 05:22:37 Guys, I've started using something of late and I had a major moment about 15mins ago. I have just spent the last 20-25 mins SOLID rolling around on the floor crying uncontrollably.......I kid you not. My eyes are all red and puffy, and I feel great. Anyway, some you of may have heard write about it already. KarmaYoga! It's the SH*T. I've been doing it morning and night for the last three days, and been allowing emotions to come to the surface. However tonight was huge, I didn't think much was going to happen and then BANG I was rolling around in tears. The best thing is, I really didn't think I had all this sadness inside me. My father died ten years ago, at the time I was 19 and I really just swallowed alot of pain, there were other evens too, but I won't bore you with them. Truth is we all have some sad story to tell. My point is, I think this is a must use tool to get the stuff out of your mind you're repressing. Whatever it is, anger, sadness, guilt. I read it at the back of the book called "Absolute Happiness"
First, read page 95, 96 and look at the diagram on 97. Then go to page 220 onwards. Drop what you're doing and get that book or go read those pages. Stick with it, as it may take a bit to actually get some results as the mind won't want to give up the emotion too easily. I really hope this helps, I'll keep at it and let me know. Good luck. Darko
Oh and the author is Michael Domeyko Rowland |

Darko, I dunno if you still post here or not. But I just bought "Absolute Happiness" and do not see anything about "karma yoga" on the pages you mention. Just to be sure, the book is by Michael Domeyko Rowland right? |

Posted - 09/14/2006 : 00:02:14 In MBP, Sarno cites a study on melanoma which describes these patients as frequently having "goodist" type personalities, with a strong need for approval. I read this several years after I had melanoma (Thank God it was caught early). I, myself am a majorly classic TMS person! I have also had many examples of the symptom imperative, in particular symptom switching from one body system to another (musculoskeletal to gastrointestinal to immune to genitourinary). I obviously need a distraction of great magnitude!

The Mindbody Prescription has a short section on cancer: pages 133-6. This section is found in the chapter about "disorders in which emotions may play a role." Dr. Sarno suspects there may be a link between repressed emotions and cancer, but isn't positive.

Posted - 09/13/2006 : 20:42:11 Stryder, you should watch a doco called 'what the bleep do we know' very interesting stuff. Basically our emtions (the brain) produce peptides, which flood our body, all our cells have cell receptors that the peptides plug into. Not sure I have the next part 100% right, but what happens is when we have a emotional block the right peptides aren't talking with the cells, eg in your back or whatever, and that's how you produce disease or pain. It's also the very same reason we keep repeating the same emtional scene, we're addicted to those emotions.......all of them, cause the flood through our system, even if they're negative.
I have to say, today's medicine should have been thrown out when Jesus or Buddha were around. It's back in the stone age, what we're part of now is the evolution of man. 50 years from now we'll look at todays medicine the same way we do the old witch hunting days. The sad thing is humans have to endure much pain, sadness, obesity, cancer, ect before we realise that. We're the fortunate one's, at least we've had the pain to help push us onto the right path. When one puts it into that perspective, the pain is really a blessing.

I agree with your contention.

Also, I've been reading another book called "The Journey" About a woman that cured herself of a large tumor. She doesn't talk about TMS but about what repressed emotions can do, and how to release emotions and forgive.
I keep hearing (in the media mostly) about the theory that all our bodies create individual cancer cells at more or less regular intervals - and our body just says, "Oooops, there's another one, darn it.", and destroys it. Its only when our systems is out-of-whack that the bad cells can set up shop.
I'm sure that time, research, and practical thinking will sort out this mystery, and there will be some connection to TMS in this cure.
100 years from now, they will look back at our medical / industrial complex and say, "Too bad it took so long to get it".
Take care, -Stryder |

Posted - 09/12/2006 : 18:28:07 Kim, The book is called Absolute Happiness, read my first post about what page it's on, not Karma Yoga. Also, I've been reading another book called "The Journey" About a woman that cured herself of a large tumor. She doesn't talk about TMS but about what repressed emotions can do, and how to release emotions and forgive. I haven't finished it, but I'm trying things out as I go along. Seems very good, however don't make the mistake of getting stuck on one emotion which seems to be what's happening to me, you have to go deeper.
Good luck, let me know how you go.

Posted - 09/12/2006 : 14:07:54 Darko,
Is the book called Karma Yoga? I couldn't find it on Amazon, but did find another book by the author called Absolute Happiness: The Way to a Life of Complete Fulfillment. Thanks! |

Posted - 09/07/2006 : 21:27:23 Kether, Really?? That's funny cause I actually own the book, I started reading it years ago and it lost my interest. I've done some growing since then, so I'll pick it back up and see how it goes this time round. Thanks for the tip. |

Posted - 09/07/2006 : 19:39:57 Thanks Suz, that's nice thing for you to say. You're an interesting person, I would like know why you feel so committed to the Catholics right now. Deep down you might be afraid and this gives you some stability.......maybe maybe not. The mind over compensates externally for what it lacks internally. This can all be powerful emotion generating stuff. It could be advantageous for you to soften your perspective, and the key word here is perspective, as we all have different ones. E.g. many people in the word find Yoga to be excellent, it's been around for many many years, maybe even longer than religion and find you view strange. Lets take an objective view of your perspective. You believe in God, as do 95% of us, but you have a perspective on what God is. As a Catholic you believe in God and the Devil, (which is believing in a false god, right?) So the Devil is as powerful as God, and makes us kill each other. If God created everything, why did He create a devil to mess with us??? Is that not twisted? Interesting perspective right?? My aim is not a religious debate, I'm just pointing out to you, that it might help you to RELAX what goes through your mind, because everyone has perspective and they're all right to those people. When you judge them you get angry (deepdown) cause they're an affront to your beliefs. Don't judge and don't have expectations, this might be why we're all angry and want blow each other up. Just use whatever tools you can to heal yourself, and kickback a little. Also try reading the ebook from www.runningpain.com I found this to be excellent too.
Now excuse me while I get nude and go hug some trees. :-)

Posted - 09/07/2006 : 07:41:10 Darko, I have to say - I am a big fan of your posts. You have a no nonsense approach and a brilliant sense of humor that always has me laughing. I get very intense about my faith because on the whole, I get very excited!! Yup - I'm a geek now I guess. I spent years searching for an answer to the mystery of why I am here etc. etc and after a long long search, I found my answers adn am super happy wiht them - suffice to say that i grew up hating the Catholic faith!!! Oh the irony of life. So - I am not fearful just aware that one can go down alot of wrong paths in life adn it has taken me a long time to find what I believe is the truth. I am not a fan of yoga purely because of some of the mumbo jumbo aspect that can actually be quite dangerous - this is actually just part of my faith. However, I think this book is worth checking out as you seem to have had great success. It is awesome to hear of that. These emotions are not easy to access as they are very very buried. I could do with a good technique. Thanks for your reply and yes - there is no doubt that my strong Catholic faith feeds into the TMS however, ironically it also acts as a soothing tool - especially when I pray and meditate - strange paradox I guess! |

Posted - 09/07/2006 : 00:37:26 Ahh that's an interesting question, I don't believe there are many books around that try to state that God doesn't exist. Although it's been a while since I read the entire book I think he does mention God but in a positive way. The author is certainly more spiritual than religious, which is what my head space is right now (I'm a reformed Catholic myself), however you can always read the pages I referred to
Suz, I will say this, please don't take offence, but if you're such a firm catholic, then it shouldn't really matter what he says about the universe cause you're certain that you've got the right story....right??? :-)
In my opinion I think you should relax a little, God isn't about to explode your head with a bolt of lightning just cause you stopped listening to some old geezer in a funny hat, quoting the "GOD'S WORD" from a book written and re-written by men thousands of years ago. I get the sense that this could freak you out, think of the emotion you can generate by being like this. Screams TMS to me. Relax, chillout and read the book, you might like some of it, and if you don't agree with it then you can still be a catholic. I think it might do you some good, how can you be sure you're on the right path if you've never looked at the other paths? :-) God, whatever form it comes in just wants you to be healthy and happy. So give the karmayoga a go at least, and let me know how you go. Good luck

Posted - 09/06/2006 : 14:22:57 Darko, i am a very devout Catholic - very serious about my faith and belief in God. Will this book you recommend be a conflict for me? I have a very specific view of the universe adn am very happy with it. I am mainly very interested in how to access the repressed emotions - i think it woudl be amazing to do that and would save so much money on therapy. After all, that is what My pschologist was doing with me last year. (recommended by Sarno) Would love your opinion Thanks |
