Hiya Art,
Sorry I haven't written yet, been going nutsy koo koo (is that a word, lol?) Anyway, I just wanted to share with you that lately whenever I do something that could have physically irritated my neck, knee or back..I immediately start affiming that my body heals VERY FAST and that this pain, or whatever symptom is just temporary and may even be a TMS conditioned response..It seems to be working..In the past the same 'incident' or less would have illicited far worse symptoms..So in this way, alot of what we feel really is in our head..well our subconscious according to Dr. S. Hope you are doing well! And, btw..I rarely ever say the word 'secular' so I don't think i ever referred to you in that way.. Talk to you soon!
Hugs,
Karen |

Art-Oops looks like I misread your comments and the worry comes AFTER the pain starts. Sorry about that.
I can relate to your example as I have had the same sort of thing happen to me on a run. I just run through the pain and it usually goes away. However i'ved noticed that this doesn't happen any more when I run because i'ved worked through a lot of the feelings causing the pain.
I guess what i'm saying is perhaps it would be more beneficial to focus on what is causing the pain in the first place- of course that is more easily said then done. |

Thanx ACL,
You are very kind! In some ways I am doing much better, thank God, but in other ways I am stressed to the max and still struggling..Lots of issues to deal with, and big time conflicts over what to do regarding my dogs, my boyfriend's allergies to them, etc. etc. Financial stress, life pressures, HUGE decisions, relationship stress, you name it..It is great to be singing again, even though only part time..It is also great to see family/friends i haven't seen in 3 years..But I am in NYC and it's tough to get to NJ where most of my people are, so i am dealing w/ feelings of isolation when my b/f and i aren't doing gigs together..(he is also a photographer and coaches ice hockey..I spend alot of time alone and have had all kinds of physical manifestions in my body from the stress and the TMS..I suppose i am handling it differently now..Interestingly, when i am on stage singing the pain is minimal! Fascinating!
Perhaps you are also sensing a deeper inner change that is going on inside me..It's a strengthening I cannot really explain in words..(but i do feel it..)And i am sure part of it is from my spiritual connection to God..Again, thanx for saying hello..Always love to hear from you! You have wonderful energy palpable through cyberspace my friend!
Hugs and blessings,
Karen |
