Back Care Awareness week in the UK

Back Care awareness week is from the 2nd to 6th October 2017  

Did you know your back is related to support?  
You might say yes, my back supports me but that is not what I mean.

Here is what I mentioned about back pain and support at a networking meeting.

The jaw talk!

Releasing the Jaw: talk and demonstration from Body-Mind Coaching 16th Nov 8pm

You might not have worries about the sinking stock market, as this article from the Daily Grind alludes to.

But you may still have other business/life worries that are subconsciously causing you to clench and/or grind your teeth without realizing – especially when you are asleep. And, as the article goes on to explain, such activity can lead to a surprising number of damaging health issues throughout the body.

As you might expect, tightening the jaw in this way can be the cause of persistent headaches, tinnitus and sinus problems. But the repercussions of teeth grinding and jaw tensing can extend well beyond that.

Julie Nicholls of Body-Mind Coaching is putting on a talk and demonstration to show the extent of the effect this habit has on the body and how you can address it.
This is your opportunity to blow raspberries and puff out your cheeks and learn other techniques and strategies.

Let me know what topic you would like me to give a talk on.

What happens if you surrender

Surrendering does not mean giving up! With Body~Mind Coaching you experience what it feels like to surrender the weight of your arm for example and discover how much freer it feels and how you can then move it further and with less pain. This is one of the ways Body Mind Coaching is very different to massage. This enables you to take the benefits of the session home with you and benefit for much longer. 

I hope you enjoy this 10 min video where Eckhart Tolle talks about what surrender means in practical terms.
 


Have you ever surrendered and had an amazing experience because of it?  I would love to hear your story and sharing it with others might help them surrender more and help you trust you can do it more often.

When in pain, why you don't want to take painkillers!

Many people will reach for pain killers at the slightest sign of pain. This is of course the best thing for us to do, according to the advertising campaigns for painkillers, as it will help you to keep going!  Therein lies the problem, pain is actually an indication that there is something wrong with the body and it is its' way of telling us we need to stop and pay attention to what is going on.

As their name suggests, they are pain KILLERS (and they might kill you too - but that is another story) they will not treat the cause of the problem that has lead you to having a pain.

Pain is actually the last symptom that appears and the first one to disappear. So, when you take a painkiller to make the pain disappeared this doesn't mean that all is well, on the contrary you have just hidden your greatest ally that is helping you avoid getting into even more health problems. The reason the body is sending out the pain signal is because we have ignored all the other signals it has sent and it now has no alternative. Previous signals may have been fatigue, discomfort, stiffness, thirst for example and only when these are ignored or dealt with in a way that does not help the body (like taking alcohol or coffee) does it send pain signals.

Many of my clients will call for an appointment because of the pain. This is the easiest thing to treat and as I said will be the first symptom that disappears. From their perspective they are better, however as I see that this does not mean that the person is in a state of health. They are just in a state of slightly less ill health.

Unfortunately our 'healthcare' system is not focused on health but on disease. It is very good at fixing emergencies. For many chronic conditions people will often hear their doctors say: 'you will just have to learn to live with it'.  You are not guided to what you have to do in order to learn how to live with it!  So many people have come to accept that if there is no symptom then there is no problem and if there is a symptom and the doctor does not have a tablet for it then nothing can be done.

This is far from the truth. Usually the reason people have got to that point is that they have not been learning what their body is attempting to tell them and just taken more pain killers to hide the problem.

Body~Mind Coaching helps people find relief from pain by making them more aware of what they are doing that might be causing the pain helping them become more aware of the more subtle symptoms so they can correct the problem before it causes pain and therefore addressing the root cause.

SO... next time you notice pain, take a moment to find out what your body is asking for, what is it that it really needs. If it is a headache you may want to read my blog on 2nd Oct 2012
