September's Health Tip - Pain's Message
Pain is not a
welcome sensation! The pharmaceutical industry knows this. Over 15 billion
dollars world wide is spent annually on "pain killers". However,
"killing" the pain without consideration to its source, is a
bit like taking out an annoying warning light, flashing in our car! The
warning light may be gone, but the source of the problem still persists.
Consider Traditional Chinese Medicine. It sees points of pain in the body
as indications that something is interfering with the correct flow of
energy through the body. This perspective leads the patient to examine
her lifestyle and attempt to identify areas that may be contributing to
the problem. Poor diet, stress, lack of rest, overuse of drugs, repressed
emotions, negative thinking, excessive stimulation, fear and anxiety would
all be examined as possible factors in causing the pain she is experiencing.
Pain is a universal human experience misunderstood from earliest times.
Originally attributed to demons and evil spirits, pain was seen as a punishment.
The word "pain" itself, has its root origin in the Latin word
"poena" which means punishment. Pain, however can be seen as
a beneficial agent. Pain is part of an intricate and complex alarm system.
It plays a vital and protective role in alerting us to potential health
problems. Pain is the messenger. Fearing, ignoring or "killing"
the messenger does little to improve the situation. If, on the other hand,
we look to understand the message given, we will have a chance to objectively
seek remedies. We can then move to actively support the body's ongoing
healing processes.
A Reminder:

Do not forget that while you can read my health tips directly on
my web site, I have written a book entitled Inner
Care, which is a compilation of ten of my health tips revised
and expanded. Inner Care sells for $15 and makes a wonderful gift
for anyone interested in optimum health. Inner Care is available
by contacting
me directly or can be purchased by credit card using our PayPal
shopping cart. Visit
our Products' Web Site - Inner Guidance Page by clicking here.

Lifestyle Choice:
In coping with
pain, massage is a lifestyle choice. Massage offers both relief from pain
and the possibility of developing a deeper understanding of our bodies
and the source of our pain. Our personal knowledge of our bodies and a
growing awareness of our healing processes remains the primary road to
optimum health.

Quotes:
"...You
gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you
really stop to look fear in the face. You must do the thing which you
think you cannot do..."

Eleanor Roosevelt
"...Pain nourishes courage.
You cannot be brave if you have only had wonderful things happen to you..."

Mary Tyler Moore
