e-Motion

A powerful video that validates Dr. Sarno and TMS.
Now they should make a video on how to get rid of those emotions.

That's what our books are meant to do.

 

Interesting. Does anyone know who is behind the movie and when it will come out?

 

I'm all ears, Forest. I recognized a few of the names, Bradley Nelson, Chiropractor and author of "The Emotion Code" and Neal Donald Walsch, author of Conversations with God.

The Emotion Code offers a training course for folks to become EC practitioners to work with people in freeing their trapped emotions. I found it interesting and have a few dear friends who have been doing this. I had a session done and while I agree with a lot of the premise, I checked out when the magic wand, oops, I mean, the magnet came out and was going to pull the negative emotions out. (They rub the magnet up and down your spine three times or something like that.) A lot of folks swear by it. I try to keep an open mind but that was just too much… (Especially since their training program sounds a bit too much like an Amway deal to me too. And it ain't cheap to get certified either.) Yeah, I know. I'm a skeptic. (And apologies if I'm stepping on toes.)

Neal Donald Walsch is an interesting dude and I've enjoyed reading some of his insights. Is it actually God speaking through him? *shrug* I guess that's not so important to me. I think he's go a lot of encouragement and insights that are helping me with my TMS healing.

Walt, to follow up on your comment, the book, "The Emotion Code" offers a healing protocol.

Steve, thanks for posting that. I'll have to check it out myself.

 

Mainstream yoga has become big business. Anything that is 'big' business is something that must be watched with care. I have steered clear of the Yoga Alliance (raking in more money for the industry) and 'certified' schools which teach how to become a teacher in x-amount of days/weeks, and it will cost an arm and both legs.

My education came from 9 months of apprenticeship with a teacher who only took 3 students that year. She did not take any money from us, but we taught classes in her studio, and she reimbursed us gas money each month.

It is important to listen to your inner warning system. You know when something just isn't right.

And if it costs alot to get certified ......... take even greater care.

Skeptic? No, you just have common sense, and a keen awareness.

with grace and gratitude,
^_^

 

Aw, thanks, Lily Rose. My knee jerk reaction to things is sometimes to scream, "Bovine scatology!" but I've learned to withhold judgement because I'm learning there's SO MUCH I don't understand. Learning to pick the meat out from the financially motivated bones is a tricky dance sometimes.

If I need to figure out a way to certify my love of a good cup of coffee so I can certify others to do the same and spread the cheer. (Only $1,097 if you order my course today!)

 

*blinks a few times*

*says the phrase aloud, testing the structure and resonance*

*causes husband to laugh*

Mmmm, I like it.

You can substitute canine or feline or equine ... how fun! A new toy for my rarely used curse words.

with grace and amused gratitude,
^_^

 

I'm afraid my curse words aren't used rarely though I am working on decreasing their frequency….

hee hee

 

This is all really such great stuff. Thanks to Steve and Tigerlilly and all you others for sharing
thoughts on the eMotion video and the Justin Lyons interview.

It's basic Sarno TMS and we need to keep going back to that, how our repressed emotions cause pain
and how mindfulness, staying focused in the present, in the here and now, helps rid ourselves of
negative emotions from our past.

I practice Lyons' suggestion every morning before I get out of bed:
Make my first thought positive and happy. I tell myself I am going to have a wonderful day.

It wasn't easy this morning because last night I watched a new movie on DVD I had not known
about but it starred Jared Leto and I wanted to see something he'd done recently. I won't tell the title
because I don't recommend anyone seeing it. It was long, almost two and a half hours, and full of
violence, strangeness, about people making wrong decisions that led to disaster. I should have turned
it off but kept hoping it would get better, but it didn't. It also had cars and buildings exploding
and sure enough, I dreamed my house exploded on fire.

I tell myself and others not to watch such movies before bedtime but did it myself. Stupid of me
because it gave me a nightmare. Thank heaven it was only a dream, and maybe it gave me a
bad repressed emotion.

Anyway, I woke up and told myself it was just a dream and I was going to have a great day.
I'll just practice mindfulness and let go of the dream.

Back to eMotion, I really believe its messages.

 

That interview with Lyons is just super!

 

I'm glad you watched it. He survived a tragedy diving with Steve Irvin.

 

Thanks, Forest, for posting the free preview. I just finished watching it and read the information on the movie website. My impression based on just watching the 25 min preview and reading the information is that they have the underlying theory correct and articulate it well. However, once you state that disease/pain is caused by trapped emotions in the unconscious, then the question is how do you release it. I'm skeptical of the strategies they outline, but want to keep an open mind. I was skeptical at first that chronic pain could be relieved simply by reading a book, but I now know that is possible.

I do have to say that I have a hard time taking seriously anything said by a grown man dressed up as a cowboy I would definitely edit him out of the movie.

 

Haha, I'm with you on the cowboy thing, Ellen. I live in Montana…have lived in the heart of agriculture and the so-called cowboys here wear Cargill or Agrifeed or Cat caps, blue jeans and shirts.

The first time I started to read Dr. Sarno's book, I literally DID throw it across the room. I was furious that he would suggest such quackery. So, like you, I try to silence my inner skeptic and keep an open mind.

 

My best friend moved to Colorado a few years ago from the ritzy North Shore of Chicago
and bought a small farm. He wasn't a farmer so he hired someone to work it, but he
didn't care much for the parties he went to because most of the people talked about manure.

He moved on to San Diego where he played bridge. I guess he didn't care much for cowboys.
