The suffering you are undergoing may be helped by some very simple things.
One, hynotherapy to get at the underlying conditions that you may be trying
to release and cannot due to fear, anger, or because the emotional distress
packed into your body is simply too much for you to manage.
Two, simple relaxation meditation that you use to relax every muscle in your
body, then pay attention to where all the pain is and love it and send
energy to it.
Three, when the energy on the top of your head is so tight, try gently
tapping the top of your head with the open palm of one of your hands and see
if that releases it.
What your stomach or solar plexus area may be telling you is literally "I
cannot stomach this." So perhaps the insight you are looking for is the
answer to the question "What can I no longer stomach?" You may already know
the answer.
How do I know. Am there, doing it.
Go well. >>
)))))))))))))))))))HI LESLIE: Thank you for taking the time to respond with
your suggestions.During the 6 mos l've been on a couple k-lists and have
related parts of my story, others have also responded with suggestions at
various times, and they've probably been a little frustrated at my responses
to them, as you may be--but l hope not too much! Because l do appreciate the
interest and time taken. l've gone
thru different phases during the nearly 7 yrs l've had difficulties and have
at various times tried everything l could--but l've had some severe
limitations placed on me by my condition. The pervasive aching sensation in
my head has prevented me from doing ANY kind of focusing without making it
much worse. That means not even the kind of focusing required to do simple
exercises or to be hypnotized--most of the time l could hardly even do simple
prayer. l cannot tell you how difficult and limiting this has been for me, as
one who could formerly do self hypnosis(to some extent) and reach deep
meditative states and who used these for both spiritual and psychological
purposes. lt has been like having all the tools of consciousness that l
learned and developed over years of work being stripped away from me, only to
be left with one thing: to try to be patient and to open my heart and
surrender fully to God's will. l
also don't necessarily accept that underlying conditions of anger, fear, etc
are responsible for what's happened, altho l naturally have these emotions
(as does everyone), and l know they can always play a part. l say this partly
because my process has been progressing over time--it just seems determined
to do it in its own way and time schedule. l view the k process as vast,
complex and mysterious and potentially affected by so many factors we don't
understand, including possibly past life and deep karmic events. l know of no
other way to account for the incredible variety of experiences l've come
across over the years with no discernible factors to explain them.
We can also look to spiritual literature for
examples. Krishnamurti and other masters went thru terrible experiences with
k for many years, as did so many saints in the christian tradition. We can't
easily ascribe this to emotional or other obvious factors. We also know that
it can take a long time for the brow chakra to fully open.ln the past year
l've felt the pain diminishing and an increasing sense of openness and
movement. This encourages me to believe l'm doing the right things, and l'm
hopeful that with the full opening of the brow chakra things will work
differently with other chakras (such as the stomach area) also.
l hope you don't
mind that l'm sending my response to the list, as l feel you've raised an
important question. And now, l'm going to try to be quiet about this, as l'm
sure most are tired of hearing about my process!
Best wishes to you,
jerry
