Thank you Walt

well, I completed this SEP the other day, and truely marvel at the mind. The most I've learned and come away from this is being happier. Why be anything else, when it only causes pain. I've decided to take a little break, even though I like something structured to work with. I have a book and...

Morning are the worst for me, it's like as soon as my feet hit the floor, it's there. It has improved since starting the sep, and I've changed my routine so as to get away from the 'conditioning', I now get up, shower, dress and then coffee etc. Before, I would sit for two hours, for the pain to...

Thanks Gigi. I do use the word 'calm' when I meditate, and it helps me to relax my body to, if I find I'm tensing when some thoughts pop up. I meant more that some days meditating is more successful than others, and that it's the 'control' part of me that might make it harder. For example, last...

I haven't posted for awhile, but thought would respond to today's question on meditating. I am new to meditating, a friend encouraged me to give it a go, and this is before I found out about TMS. I find it really relaxing, and a great way to start the day. But sometimes it doesn't always "work"...

Very good read, thank you.

Hi Walt, thanks for your reply. I read it first thing this morning, but have been thinking about what you said while getting things done around the house before work. It's not that I feel guilty about Dad's accident, but that I thought that thought, and felt that way! No one wishes a parent to...

Hi Nanna, music can bring so many emotions too. The Peghanson story was the educational read for day 8, and you should be able to write her name in the search box too. Cheers x

Looking back on my journals I would say the most prevalent emotions are fear, sadness, anger and a new one discovered this morning while journalling, guilt. The fear is mostly do to with my back and backside pain in the mornings, that I may never pinpoint the trigger, never get up and start my...

Hi, I too am at the 2 week mark, and felt exactly what you were saying. I reckon it's going to be a longer journey for me too, even though I don't want it to be, but I see that as I've got more to learn than other people. I've had some good mornings (they are the worst part of the day) and some...
