This morning, I responded to this request about someone having low back pain, and EFT not being able to make the pain go away--all the way.
For more than 10 years, I have been dealing with low back pain. There is no history of an injury, no specific event that occured at that time. I use pain meds occasionally, but nothing strong. I've lost weight and that seems to help a little. When I use EFT it helps, but never goes away. Some days worse than others. My set up is "even though I have back pain, I deeply and completely accept myself." Sometimes I wonder if the pain could be serving a purpose, and that's why it's not going away. Any thoughts or suggestions?
Here is my response:
our bodies are always talking to us. it keeps attempting to give us messages. if we don't understand it--it gets louder and louder.
according to louise hay, in you can heal your life, back pain represents support of life, and lower back pain refers to:
-
fear of money
-
lack of financial support
do either of those fit? if so, you could use something like these for set-up phrases. even though:
-
my lower back hurts, and maybe it has to do with lack of finacial support, i am not sure, and i deeply and completely love and accept myself
-
i have fear of not having enough money...
-
i have feelings of not having enough money...
what i notice about your set-up phrase is that you are dealing with emotions... you aren't going deep enough. how do you feel about the back pain? here are some ideas that may or may not be true (use them as triggers...) even though:
-
i am scared that my back may go out on me...
-
i am getting older and i fear that my back may get worse...
-
i have lost weight, and that has helped some, i feel helpless that my back pain is still here...
-
i don't think eft will work for me, maybe i am not doing it right or not smart emough or______...
another suggestion, get LOUDER. add CUSS WORDS. and one of my favorites is tap and bitch (or rant). maybe your back is your barometer, and like you were saying, the pain could be serving a purpose. be aware of when your back hurts. could you be stuffing your feeling? if so, tap and bitch and get it out.
