Back pain

 

   

 

After the birth of my third child, at the age of 30, I developed back pain.  I remember talking to my wonderful GP and he gave me some simple advice.

He said, I know you have been doing your pelvic floor exercises, but now I would suggest you focus on your core muscles.

Surprisingly, with a little focused attention on my core muscles, the back pain disappeared.

Now, every time I start getting back pain, I check in with my core muscle routine ?

Try these for starters and see if it works for you.

Remember to go gently and consult your doctor before beginning any new exercise routine.

Try this exercise when anxiety starts to build…

Try to visualise your anxiety as a small child knocking at your front door.

The child may be wet, cold and afraid, or the child may be agitated and aggressive.

However you see the child – take him/her in your arms and reassure the child that it is safe…

Ask the child the following questions and jot down, what ever response comes to mind/heart/body first.

“What are you feeling”?

“What has happened that you felt the need to come to see me today?”

“What are you trying to tell me or show me?”

Then visualise sitting with the child on your lap, in silence for as long as you feel comfortable.

Continue to reassure the child that it is safe.

Dont worry if you don’t feel anything, when you first start using this exercise.

Each time you stop and acknowledge the anxiety, and just sit with it, you will find it gets easier and easier to just rest, until the anxiety/child feels ready to move on.

Over time, it will be like an old friend coming to sit quietly with you on your front verandah.

You will know that it isn’t coming to harm you.

You will know that it will pass.

You will know that it just wants to be acknowledged.

Address the stress……..

Most of the time we get bogged down by stress… stuck in the stress!

A never ending merry go round of stress.

I like to encourage my clients to think outside the square… let me tell you a story.

I had a young lady who would come for Reiki on a regular basis.

I had noticed that she had been getting a bit more unsettled every time she would come see me, so I asked what was up.

She explained that she and her husband wanted to buy their first home, but because, they had a young child and she only worked part time, they couldn’t afford to get into the housing market.

It was causing lots of problems in their relationship, lots of sleepless nights and lots of stress.

I suggested that we white board some solutions……

…..outside the square…..

and we agreed to one possible alternative solution.

She went to see a financial advisor and see if they would be able to buy a small investment property first,

then in a few years use the equity in the investment property to help secure their long awaited family home.

Such a simple solution has given them, something exciting to work towards, and that particular stressor has been removed.
