‘SELF-MEDICATION’
When one is in pain and aims to avoid the ‘solutions’ of
surgery and/or dependence on pharaceutical drugs,
then ‘alternatives’ become a ‘necessity’.
ALCOHOL
Often the ‘easy’ go-to, especially from about 15 years old to my mid-thrities.
But hangovers became too high a price to pay for this ‘self-med’ and to be fair,
it was more about the social aspect of drinking than any other ‘benefit’.
‘SOCIAL’ HERB
I first consumed this ‘social’ herb
a bit over half way through my 17th year on this planet,
and during my 18th & 19th years in particular,
it became a very central part of my social life.
I had come to realise that this herb was very much ‘me’ -
something that continued through with me for many decades.
There was however, another side to this herb
that took many years for me to recognise,
let alone appreciate how good it was for ‘numbing pain/s’ -
both physical and emotional.
TO BEING A ‘MEDICATING’ HERB
Early in 2006, I commenced a job as a ‘night-filler’ at a major supermarket chain.
This also co-incided with the early stage of what turned out to be
pretty much a 7 year ‘sabatical’ form this herb,
as well as starting to have successes with early ©S-P-C© techniques.
One afternoon I was lying on my bed doing some low-impact stretches
and as a ‘finishing’ exercise, I aimed to lift my upper body
- by primarily using my abdominal muscles and not using hands/arms -
to get up into a sitting position with legs over the bed edge and feet onto the floor.
Inside my head, there was a lot of “no! there will be pain”,
to which I ‘replied’, that ‘we’ had had recent success ‘pulling out’
the small back muscle kicked-in during a rugby game a few decades earlier.
With much hesitancy, the body did what I wished
and I sat ‘no-hands’ up onto the edge of the bed.
Once the body realised that particular pain in the back didn’t get triggered,
a wave of relief washed through my body -
very similar to as if I had just consumed ‘the herb’ - which I hadn’t!
This was the first real ‘ah-ha’ moment about how important that herb had been
to relieving so many of my pains and hence
why it had been such a central part of my life for so long.
MOVING ON FROM THERE
I did return to using the herb for many years again,
though - thankfully - now I have other ways of dealing with the pain/s.
©Self-Physi-Chiro© is a central part of this preferred form of ‘pain-relief’.
So is Homeopathy.
So is general diet and lifestyle.
And so is Kinesiology, with the real success with this
being the addressing of emotional/non-physical aspects of life,
including when focusing on ‘remedying’ the physical.
