Subject: [K-list] sciatica response 
From: Tym
  
On 2001/10/19  10:55, Tym posted thus to the K-list: I am in the middle of an interesting experience 
that i would like to share with the list. It is 
acutally a very long story, i will try to keep to 
the saliant present activities. 
Last year, i was living in italy, in an unhealthy 
relationship, and began to have extreme sciatic 
pain..went to the hospital, was (of course) given 
intramuscular drugs (needles and narcotics), and 
told to relax. When i came back to the states, i 
actually did, the relationship dissolved, and i 
was introduced to a doctor named John Sarno, who 
said back pain is a somatic response to locked up 
emotion, just the awareness of this tends to 
release holding patterns. Being a lifelong 
student of psychology, this blew me away (i had 
thought it physio, not psycho...:) 
So, then the salient part..last night i was 
somewhere i didn't really want to be, with people 
i really didn't want to be with...(the lack of 
external love thing is important) and went to 
pick up a friend's child, and pulled my low back 
very seriously, it was shocking to my system to 
say the least. There was no compassion, i was 
non-consciously looking and seeking for 
something..a semblance of "are you okay," or "let 
me rub it for you," or even a glance...nothing, 
absolute nothing, in fact it was the opposite, 
more like..."whatever, yeah stuff like that 
happens." 
This morning i had the epiphany, the realisation 
that the pattern was the same, the searching 
outside for love, for affection, being in a place 
i didn't want to be (i didn't drive so i was 
"stuck" there), and with people who were really 
not in a loving space (nor was i for that 
matter!).  
So, the realisation of this, this morning, has 
shook me up a bit i must say...I am working with 
affirmations, and moving towards internal locus 
of affection, but i must say that this is 
difficult, goes to being in the hospital much as 
a child.  
Does anyone have feelings on this? I am wondering 
how i can best approach it so that i can be more 
mindful in the future (in the present), i am well 
aware of modalities, but i guess i am really 
having to look within... 
Blessings, Tym
