Restrictions may be held deeper than you realize …
Working with my clients over the last few years, I’ve come to realize that most individuals say what they think they believe and know, but ultimately don’t embody the belief. Here’s an example.
John hurt himself while doing yard work this week. He has had past issues with neck pain and a lower back ache for a long time. While he was working with me for coaching and receiving both the energy and body work during his sessions, he continued to approach his professional work with the same determination. While his attitude toward his career was improving, so was his chronic back and neck pain. We were working on setting action items to support his application for a promotion, while with the energy work we were focused on removing and rebalancing his energetic bodies to sustain his physical energy needs (more computer work); additionally, the body work was focusing on improving mental clarity and focus while releasing the restrictions in the lower back to support the added stress the new position would most likely bring with it. He had the skill set and the experience necessary to get the position, but he wanted to ensure his emotion and mental bodies were up to the challenge. Great work, right? Right! Now nice weather is here and John goes out to get much-needed yard work completed and ends up hurting his back. He has been immobilized ever since. Frozen, you might say: afraid to move or do anything physical lest he aggravate the injury. He calls me to tell me he will need to move his appointment and explains the situation as to why he is unable to move.
What do you think my question to him over the phone was? Yes, you got it … “So, John, you can’t move, your back feels like there are sharp needles, and you’re unable to stay on course and hold to your commitment. Why do you think that is? Step outside of the physical world of what might have happened and step into your energetic world. Tell me what you see, feel, etc.”
What do you think his response was? Yep, you’re right again. “Ohhhhhh, I get it!”
