The Best Experience of Pain Ever

I have to share my recent pain experience - because it was SO DIFFERENT than what I've experienced in the past.


A few days ago, while I was bending over the housework, I felt a pinch in my lower back. It felt like something was caught and stuck and I wasn't quite sure I could get up. I felt a little fear rise in my chest because this particular enhancement had never happened before. I took a few deep breaths and managed to stand up, but my back was still tight, twisted, and "off". I rated the pain a 7 out of 10.


In the past, I would have been afraid. Oh my god! Something is WRONG!! How long will it take? How long will I be out of my activities? Am I going to get BLOCKED FOREVER like this?!! And on and on... In the past, adjustments like this would get worse, the pain would spread throughout my body and I could be miserable and in pain for months.


Even though it was a little shocking and scary and it doesn't feel good, I know it's going to be okay.


My fear was immediately reduced and my pain level dropped a notch or two as well. I have a great chiropractor that I trust and was able to get an appointment three days later. The last three days would have felt like an eternity, but this time I thought it was my chance to experience the tapping of pain.


Although I suffered from chronic pain for several years, I have had no real pain since I became an EFT practitioner. My trusted chiropractor got me out of pain, but I went to see him often - weekly at first, then every few weeks. But, once I started tapping, my edits lasted longer and longer, and now I only see him a few times a year for a "tune-up".


That evening my pain was still a 5 so I gave myself a full tap. It didn't take long for me to associate this pain with my worries about finances. I worked with it until I felt much better and when I checked back in it was about 2! I still felt the misalignment, but my pain experience was completely different. It was an annoying "off" feeling, but something I could live with for the next few days. This happens to my clients all the time, but I have to admit I was still a bit amazed to experience such a dramatic difference in myself.


When I saw my chiropractor he said there was a rotation in my L-4 that would cause the pain I described. He snapped everything back into place, along with some adjustments to my neck, hips, and feet until I was flush again.


Although pain is never fun, this was the best pain experience ever! I am still in awe of the power of the human mind to increase or decrease our experience of pain and EFT to communicate with the part of the mind that controls that experience. While I had a physical deviation that required attention, my thoughts, emotions, and energy flow turned out to be a larger component of my pain experience.

10 Minutes To A Healthy Back

Nothing can make you feel old and vulnerable faster than a bad back. And if you know that feeling, it's a small consolation that four out of five adults share it at some point.

Smart Disc Problems

Problems with the vertebral disc are very painful. They haunt you with excruciating and shooting pain. A vertebral is a plate or disk of cartilage and fiber that contains the nucleus pulpous, a mass of white elastic fiber at its center located between the vertebrae or bones of the spine. Disc problems tend to get worse with age. Aggravation or any injury or any stress can cause a painful disorder known as a slipped disc, herniated disc, pinched nerve, or ruptured disc. In a herniated disc, when the disc ruptures or slips, the white elastic fibers protrude through the cartilage and put pressure on the adjacent nerve root, generating excruciating pain in the affected area. A herniated disc can sometimes be completely painless, but a degenerative disc can cause intense pain. Degenerative means that the condition is likely to get worse over time. Most patients with a degenerative disc will periodically experience continuous tolerable pain followed by increasing intensity of pain that will ...
