3 months ago, I had a resurgence of lower back pain that started when I was working my 9-to-5 job prior to 2020.
This pain had gotten progressively worse to the point where if I sat down for more than 20 min & stood up, I had stiffness & 10/10 pain.
Today, I used EFT using the process I outline for you in the images below. Although EFT has been in my arsenal for years & I have used it for emotional release, I felt some resistance to using it for my back pain. I had to work through that for a few weeks before I began. There was this part of me that knew why the pain was there & wasn’t ready to let it go. With all the other things going on in my life, it just felt like another task on my to-do list.
That’s the lie the mind, the hurt ego, the traumatized body tells. It says that staying the same is easier than changing, when it is actually easier to change than to stay the same.
Why?
Our life improves when we make positive changes & that makes life easier. When we stay the same, making the same negative limiting choices, things are actually harder. Trying to keep things the same is actually resisting the natural changes that we go through. That is harder.
I did a 25 min EFT session this morning. Before my pain was a 10/10 & my emotion & stories at the root of it were at a 8–9/10. After the session, going through the process I outline in the images, my pain is at a 4/10 & I have increased range of motion in my back & feel cooler & lighter.
You might be wondering how this happens? How can you tap on parts of your body & suddenly feel better?
Nick Ortner, author of The Tapping Solution, says,
“What tapping does, with amazing efficiency, is halt the fight-or-flight response & reprogram the brain & body to act — & react — differently.”
By tapping on the meridians & calming the nervous system when triggered by the pain/emotions/stories, the nervous system is retrained & the old program is released.
Try it out & feel the difference.
