On today’s “The Way,” we looked at how pain tells us that something in our lives is out of alignment, that something is wrong. When we take notice of pain – listening to it and going deeper into our feelings and memories – we can begin the process of letting it go. Are there circumstances in your life that are manifesting as physical pain? Back pain can point to lack of support from those around you; issues with your feet can represent walking your spiritual path with some difficulty; skin problems may reflect that you are not happy in your own skin…
The longer pain goes on, the more the body gets in the habit of holding on to it. It is vitally important to remember it is a messenger – nothing more and nothing less. When we feel an emotion and don’t let it develop and move through our body and psyche, it is going to show up as a pain in the body. Try this exercise – Close your eyes and ask your body “What is this pain about?” Events and feelings will rise to the surface. Then, use your ability to put the pieces of the puzzle together to gain awareness and let go of pain!
For more insight, and some great calls and tweets on the subject, tune into the archives of “The Way” on VoiceAmerica. Join us next Monday for “Addiction and Why We Go There,” a topic I hope you will find informative and valuable!
