conscious parents & self-sabotage

The Universe is always guiding, protecting and assisting me!

This is one version of my favorite, most often practiced affirmation and this week IT did it again!

To give you some feedback- but I'm sure you know ;-) - I have been suffering from chronic back pain for quite some time now, so this week I was scheduled for a spine procedure.

They were to insert a long needle very close to my spine, right at the root of one of the nerves going down my leg and send some radio frequencies with the goal of desensitizing the nerve.

Let's just start by aknowledging the wonders of modern medecine for which I am SO grateful.

Even though I underwent a similar, more intrusive procedure in March 2023, which lowered my pain considerably for over a year, this time was a completely different story.

This time I was actually scared and very apprehensive.
I even had a nightmare the night before.

Of course, me being a brain trainer and a glass-half-full person, I tried my best to envision the highest outcome.
It didn't really work, the fear was there, even when I was trying to ignore it so I knew that trying to control my fear with my thoughts wasn't enough...
I had to use Tapping. So I did.

I tapped on my fear, I tappend on the "catastrophizing" thougt of me losing the use of my leg and anything else that came to mind.

Then, and only then, after I scared myself enough and neutralised my emotional reaction, was I able to envision the best result.
I am happy to report that it went smoothly and my pain level has already gone done - only two days after ❤️
​
Why am I telling you that?

Not to be dramatic,

Not to brag about getting out of negative thinking,

NO!

Somehow, it again has to do with the video that was meant to be released this week: 
The One way that conscious parents sabotage the impact of their efforts with their teens.

I explained how this happens in a way that is not so identifyable and we perhaps do it in other areas of our lives too! 

Thanks for watching and let me know below if you've discovered that you were doing it too.
