I have a burning shoulder pain, almost constant, and it varies in severity ...good day, slow burn...bad day, cattle prod territory
My daughter is currently undergoing training as a volunteer in addiction recovery support and tissue issues was the topic today....my shoulder is a known 'living with addiction' phenomenon, I have a tissue issue!!
She herself has developed a nervous skin condition....(her brothers alcoholism, her marriage breakdown due to her husbands alcoholism.....need I say more)
We need to be good to ourselves, our bodies are dropping big hints that hey, all is not well here.
I go for a back and shoulder massage once a month.....bliss
Do you have a tissue issue...what do you do to be good to you?
Aloha Ness...What I have learned to do is a combination of focused meditation and metaphysical manipulation. That works and has worked for along time on a bunch of conditions minor to severe and for which many of my doctors have expressed surprise. Everyone can do it. (((((hugs)))))
The link between stress and disease is a strong one, and there are many good books on how to heal our bodies by understanding this process. I know its not Al-anon lit but I am presently reading You Can Heal Your Life by Louise L Hay. It is very interesting. I found that I hold all my stress in my muscles, and somedays they are so painful. My body soaks up negative energy like a sponge. I practice yoga and meditation to counteract this.
