Chronic Pain, Fatigue & Fibromyalgia
We've been born into a cultural era that mixes the values of the Industrial Revolution and the Information Age which approaches health care with a very mechanical and quick fix mentality.

For those who know this Mind-Body-Soul paradigm is possible in their head/mind but find it hard to connect it to day-to-day living and knowing of life. ..
An Explanation of the Physical Process that explains why Mind-Body Medicine and Energy Psychology Works.
In Appreciation of the work of Dr. John Sarno....
"I appreciate Dr. John Sarno and quote him in my book: Soul-Side Out: Universal Laws to Healing and Living Your Best LIfe because he was a Doctor ahead of his time. He explains why and self-awareness practises such as INside-OWT work (through a physical process he identified) which helped explain to me (20 years go) how I was able to interrupt and instantaneously change feelings of fatigue and exhaustion and my Chronic Migraines (which are both, most often, caused by unconscious emotions or judgmental thoughts we are not aware of." Summer Bozohora
Spontaneous awareness and Self-Healing is possible because of what Dr. John A Sarno Calls the SYMPTOM IMPERATIVE which means that although we can cut-out, numb, drug, mask or fight physical symptoms, new symptoms will continue to occur ie) relapse in cancer or what appear to be entirely unrelated symptoms until we access the emotional or spiritual conflict behind the symptoms.
THE SYMPTOM IMPERATIVE - Aches, Pains and other recurring symptoms that can be tracked to the repression of emotion through the autonomic-peptide branch of the central nervous system (Sarno, 2006). (Peptides are molecules that participate in a system of inter- communication between the brain the body)

"The altered physiology in this process that creates the symptoms and physical pain appears to be a mild,
localized reduction in blood flow to a small region or specific body structure, such as a spinal nerve,
resulting in a state of mild oxygen deprivation. (Sarno, 2006, p.14-15)
The result is the sensation of fatigue and/or pain.
localized reduction in blood flow to a small region or specific body structure, such as a spinal nerve,
resulting in a state of mild oxygen deprivation. (Sarno, 2006, p.14-15)
The result is the sensation of fatigue and/or pain.
The tissues that may be targeted by the brain include the muscles of the neck, shoulders, back or buttons; any spinal or peripheral nerve and any tendon. As a consequence, the symptoms may occur virtually anywhere in the body.” (Sarno, 2006, p.14-15) In short, what Dr. Sarno is saying is that many types of symptoms are caused by mild and benign (meaning harmless) oxygen deprivation to a specific area of the body, and brought on by stress through the central nervous system through repressed emotion.
Lots of us make ourselves SICK physically, emotionally or spiritually
by not listening to our inner being because we are taught NOT to - our world
teaches us to suppress, ignore and deny inner messages because they often go
against much of what our families and western culture has taught us about life.
In his books, The Divided Mind; the Epidemic of Mind-Body Disorders, and the Mind-Body Prescription, Dr. John Sarno breaks the diseases and disorders that fall within Mind-Body Medicine into 2 categories.
Those disorders that are directly induced by unconscious emotions such as:
- Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia, Chronic Pain, Carpel Tunnel Syndrome, ulcers, hernias, Irritable Bowel, Tinnitus, Bone Spurs, Bulging Disks, Herniated Discs, Knee, Shoulder, Back or Knee strain/pain or diagnosed tears, Migraines, Headaches.
- Skin disorders such as eczema, hives, psoriasis, asthma, and common gastrointestinal conditions including reflux, ulcers, irritable bowel syndrome, skin disorders such as allergies and many others.
Diseases in which unconscious emotions play a role, but are not the only factor,
including
- cancer, autoimmune disorders, cardiovascular conditions,
Dr. Sarno concluded that since EVERYONE experiences psychosomatic symptoms,
the mind-split is a universal human trait, not something associated only with neurosis or to put it another way,
Neurotic is normal. (Sarno, The Divided Mind p. 52)
He also says that a big reason for these disorders is the resistance of the Medical profession to acknowledge a mind-body connection and to normalize the experience.
He says “ For the majority there is a stigma attached to disorders related to psychology. There is shame associated with the idea that one is suffering from psychological induced symptoms. Stress or illness disease on the other hand is more acceptable because it is believed to stem from things “out there” that are doing something TO YOU and its does not imply a personal defect!
But, the the truth is that the Symptom Imperative and the Mind-Body Spilt - the need to reconcile thought and feeling or the head and heart… our spiritual nature with our purpose here on Earth is a UNIVERSAL process
The simplest way to accept and understand this Universal Process
of Mind-Body Communication is through the 5-step process of INside-OWT
of Mind-Body Communication is through the 5-step process of INside-OWT
INside-OWT is a completely natural way to access your inner knowledge. It's a process you remember because we all know what fundamentally heals us at the core of our being. You can access unconscious feelings that need resolution quickly and find the gift of new inner wisdom and inner strength at the same time.
