I've overcome problems with TMS in the past concerning my back and have had years of pain free activity. However, in the past 8 months I've been struggling with pain on the left, top side of my hip...just about where my belt goes. I've done everything from MRI (no tears) to acupuncture, stretching, PT, no activity for months and it does not go away. It subsides but as soon as I play tennis again it comes back with a vengeance. It feels very much like tendonitis in that it tightens and bothers me when I get up, or roll over in my sleep, etc. I've tried applying the TMS methods to no avail....I've even challenged it by playing really hard for consecutive days and paid a heavy price the next 2 weeks.
Does anyone have any experience with this issue or any advice?
Thanks,
Rob |

Hi Rob, I'm in the same boat. Playing singles for only sanctioned tournaments, doubles the rest of the time--thinking of coming up with a new game for the mobility challenged--"Triples Tennis".

Form means limitation. We are here not only to experience limitation,
but also to grow in consciousness by going beyond limitation. Some
limitations can be overcome on an external level. There may be other
limitations in your life that you have to learn to live with. They can only be overcome internally. Everyone will encounter them sooner or later. Those limitations either keep you trapped in egoic reaction, which means intense unhappiness, or you rise above them internally by uncompromising surrender to what is. That is what they are here to teach. The surrendered state of consciousness opens up the vertical dimension in your life, the dimension of depth. Something will then come forth from that dimension into this world, something of infinite value that otherwise would have remained unmanifested. Some people who surrendered to severe limitation become healers or spiritual teachers. Others work selflessly to lessen human suffering or bring some creative gift into this world. -- Ekhart Tolle

I think I have the same problem although I'm not sure there are any tendons in that location.
Your post indicates that you think it is not TMS. If the pain persists for several months it is probably TMS. Try using Ace's affirmations whenever it bothers you. Good luck. |
