22. When you heal, the pain more or so fades away, so there is no battle that is then eventually won.
It's ok to be easy on yourself and on the symptomatic body part when the tension level is very high. Don't feel you have something to prove or that you have let it beat you.
Bring the tension level down first then you will see that your symptoms have subsided enough for you to function. The healing process is done very gradually, with a very gradual improvement in symptoms and ability to do things you were unable to do before.
You cannot do anything physical to heal (which includes fighting). |

That last part's a shame. I had a mud-wrestling session penciled in.
A topical joke then.

| I don't full understand this key, so perhaps some clarification is in order. |

Plum,
In the past have you experienced feelings of not fitting in, not being good enough, being put down by those who see themselves as “better,” and feeling insecure,disrespected and resentful towards those people? I asked this because these feelings stay with us into adulthood and when we experiencing them later in life, then symptoms can develop as we have not properly de-conditioned ourselves. |

I'm Bohemian Shawn.
I'm soft and feminine and if pushed to define my centre of gravity I would say gentleness. I've romantically viewed myself as passionate but can see this has intensity at its core and I resent that because naturally I'm a free spirit squashed into a tough situation. And by free spirit I don't mean promiscuous, which is the most tedious attribution, nor am I casual. I care a lot.
I can answer yes to all those things, and you have a point.
I actually believe my problems are due to making myself small to fit this caring role. Having saved one life, maybe it is time to save my own. |

Hi Shawn, I hope I'm right, but I think what it mean is try to work on reducing your tension first. If your leg hurt bad, don't try to run a marathon. If your back is in terrible pain, don't try to lift that big trash can. Once your tension is down to a certain level, your symptoms will subside, will lessen. We should wait until the pain level is down to a point that we can run and lift without scaring the sh.. out of us. Don't force physical activities on ourself. We don't need to prove to our mind that we are physically healthy when we are really not. The main goal is to reduce the tension. Do only the activities that your body is comfortable doing.

| Yes Balto is exactly right. This is a very important part. The pain fades like it was never there before and when this happens, you will just do normal things automatically. |

| I guess there is a lot to be said here. For the past few days I have been home sick with the flu and thus did not leave the house. As a result, this has made me a bit stir crazy as I feel I have to daily move in order to affirm to myself that I am physically well even when I don't actually feel well. |

| That stir crazyness. that need to have to be doing something, has to be deconditioned and stopped, through affirmations and sitting in it. |
