Last week I put my bed on casters and raised it. At the same time, I started inverting. The past few days my lower back has been bothering me. Today, I could not take it any longer and took the casters off the bed. Saturday I bought a new bed, other bed was almost 10 years old. This is a better quality and thicker mattress.
I have been told I have issues with kidneys, yet I did not know this. My TaiChi-ChiKung instructor was who told me. Also, when I thought of it, I realized no matter how much (or little) water I drank, I seemed to be bloated Often.
Now I am attempting to find out IF I just have a backache OR it is with my kidneys OR all of a sudden something has arised from looking at things.
I went to a ceremony on Saturday and released several issues. I know they left, I felt it, as well as I felt comfort afterwards.
Is it possible that as the onion layers are peeled, something has come up and is now settling in my back?
I am thinking I will go put some castor oil on my lower back and kidneys for a while and see if that doesn't help...even just to get through work today.
So, again when is a backache just a backache? And how can One tell?
That really blows me! how precise! I didn't know about this correlation and I can confirm it as true. I've had lower back pain for a long time before and during pregnancy, and now even though I'm heavier and I've been sleeping for at least 4 years on awful materasses (including 5 months in the van), no pain. What happened? any economical problems we had just vanished after our son was born, and since then I haven't had any worries whatsoever, gone. Amazing...
Ynaig, I have the book of Louise Hay but it's in a box in Norway while I'm now in Mexico. Would you do me a favour? can you check on overweight? I remember Invincible mentioned a state of disempowerment, verdad?
Hope you don't mind me chirping in since I'm online.
Overweight is linked with insecurity issues and the extra weight is a self defense mechanism to protect ourselves from any pain (emotional) that comes our way. Also, it's a way of protecting against sexual advances.
Also, if overeating is the issue, then it's an act of comforting the self, because until you clarify what it is you want, then food becomes a substitute, a way of quieting desire. If this is the case, I would play the game of "What I want is X, and why I want it is because of ABC" .. this helps to focus on attracting what you do want in your life now and vibrationally, it helps to shift from an old pattern.
Overweight Fear, need for protection. Running away from feelings. Insecurity, self-rejection. Seeking fulfilment. *I am at peace with my own feelings. I am safe where I am. I create my own security. I love and approve of myself.
That's a good question and of course it made me smile :-)
A backache is NEVER just a backache, in the same way, an accident is never just an accident ...
Fear, kidneys and lower backache are all related. Lower back often relates to worry about finances or the fear of moving on because of lack based thinking.
The kidneys hold water when we are fearful. They constrict and retain. Retention is due to the fear of releasing limiting thoughts and old fears and then moving on to something new.
I was hoping you would say something different :D! Yet, I knew in my being, you would not...
So, is it possible in releasing this weekend, something even deeper arose and is the reason my back is even more intense, the past 2 days..maybe 3?
So, if I sit with myself and find these issues (I think I know them already), my back should no longer ache?
I have not done the inversion table since Thursday and I was really enjoying it. Then, the pain became more than I was willing to attempt the inversion table.
"Retention is due to the fear of releasing limiting thoughts and old fears and then moving on to something new."
So, between finances AND limiting thoughts, is most likely the reason BOTH back and kidneys are making themselves known?
Wow, this is something I thought I let go of, a while ago! Guess I need to look more, huh?
No one likes to hear the cause of the cause of the cause :-)
But the root cause is ALWAYS a state of mind, and because most of us were not taught to be connected to our emotional guidance as the means to guiding ourselves to or away from what is useful for us, the symptoms that manifest appear several years after the original thought took place.
So the layers would start with the thought, then move into thought form .. then move into the body normally internally, such as kidneys, then move to a more debilitating condition such as pain. Pain stops us in our tracks and gives us time to review our lives.
Also, guilt always seeks punishment, so meditate on what you feel guilty about and see what that brings up.
If you release the cause, then the symptoms MUST also leave.
If you want to remove a tree, there's no point pruning the leaves, no point cutting off the branches. You want to get at the roots. You know that :-)
"No one likes to hear the cause of the cause of the cause :-)"
You know I learned a long time ago God had a sense of humor. In asking for you to come into my life, I see again God has a sense of humor ;-).
You, my friend, have spunk and attitude!...LOL (that, for me, is a very good thing!)
"If you release the cause, then the symptoms MUST also leave."
I thought I released the cause, because I have not been retaining (as much) water as I tended to.
"If you want to remove a tree, there's no point pruning the leaves, no point cutting off the branches. You want to get at the roots. You know that :-)"
I will go deeper and find the roots. Yes, I know and if I didn't I know I could come here and be REminded :D!
LOL! Yes, our Inner Beings are playful, funny creatures. They speak in metaphors and analogies .. I sometimes think this God fella, with the long white beard is really Ricky Gervais in panto.
Laughing at ourselves is wonderful therapy and remember, there is no dark switch. Once we see the light, we realise that life on Earth is truly the ultimate cosmic joke!
Hm - I noticed my lower back feels somewhat sore the last couple days also since working intensely on releasing my attachment to my relationship/my guy and freeing myself to move on. Interesting!! I never have low back pain usually. Its not bad, but I can tell its not normal.
I would like to know about low blood pressure - I had severely low BP when I was a child, I was also very shy. My BP is much more stable now, yet still on the low side.
Blood Pressure, Low Lack of love as a child. Defeatism. What's the use it won't work anyway. *I now choose to live in the ever joyous NOW. My life is a joy.
Thanks for looking it up for me Ynaig. Wow, I think I had very loving parents, we have a very close relationship. However, my dad used to be out of town a lot for two years because he went back to school in another city and was only home every other weekend. I wonder if thats the reason. he still feels bad about that - he tells me sometimes that he wished he had spent more time with me when I was little.
Round Shoulders/Scoliosis Carrying the burdens of life. Helpless and hopeless. *I stand tall and free. I love and approve of me. My life gets better every day.
Please give alternate words for underweight/not eating, cause I can't find them in the book.
perhaps connected with the deafness: I don't think of hearing as being "passive", but rather active *receptivity*. I think the latter is key. One cannot be receptive without first emptying, so as to allow filling...(Lots of fear could be stuck in that level).
Maybe the underweight is a consequence of 'emptying' -so as to receive- gone arwy.
(I do not think the body wants to hurt or kill us--I think it is due great appreciation for the myriad ways it works around and free of faulty input!)
How about viewing the underweight as not wanting to be "heavy" --
Positive = wanting to be "light"...there's always a positive, since we naturally all desire the good:look at the convoluted ways we try to accumulate it.
so--how about looking at weight,
*and deafness* or its 'opposite': having "ears to hear".
I tend to intuit that both these concerns are the result of it being somehow perceived as unsafe to hear--and, to be 'weighty'. To "have weight". Think of it: maybe a very elegant way to avoid persecution. when I was younger i lived with a very good timpanist--he used to speak of this or that one as being a "heavyweight" or not..meaning, filled with skill and the ability to transmit it. (or not)
PS I think the drug in utero is a red herring in this way: it's more a *resonance* that fits (echos) an earlier consequence, than actually a 'cause' -- that is to say: the causes are myriad...never mind undoing it all back to the beginningless beginning
: better to tug with compassion on one *apparent* result and trace it into the light; bomb it with love, and acceptance--so to speak. Easier said than done--I know.
just a few ideas that might be worth examining, or sleeping on...but I'd suggest go easy. No blame. anywhere. :-)
