Health is like money, we never have a true idea of its value until we lose it. ~Josh Billings
Yes, I am writing about my health again, but I definitely have something to celebrate. This week, I was able to put in two full days of work, one included lifting heavy boxes, and I did it without the use of prescribed pain killers.
Without focusing too much on the past, I was in the beginning using a fairly heavy pain killer to get through the day along with taking ibuprofen. I successfully cut that into one pill a day broken in half along with ibuprofen, to just the ibuprofen. To be honest, most days before I left the house, I made sure I had my all my little pills ready to go because I “needed” them. Here lately, I tend to forget them, including the ibuprofen, and only take it as an after-thought.
It has taken a combination of exercise, meditation, and asking the Universe to help to get to this place. But even as of last week, I didn’t think my back pain improved this much. But here lately, as I sleep, I have been playing the health affirmations as spoken by Louise Hay on the bonus section of here DVD, You Can Heal Your Life.
There are a number of different affirmations that cover a variety of topics, but health is what I am focusing on now. I hoped that it would seep into my brain subliminally, and maybe it has. Maybe it’s just mind over matter. I don’t care what is curing my back pain, as long as it is cured. People call things like acupuncture a sham, but after visiting Dr. Luc De Schepper over twenty years ago, within two weeks the migraine headaches I had been experiencing for over ten years stopped, and I have not had one since. So once again I don’t care what the cure is, if you have faith that it will work, something tells me it more than likely will.
So yeah I am grateful. This means so much for my quality of life. To be able to work without pain, or without trying to fight the tiresome effects of narcotics while working at five in the morning until two in the afternoon means that I am that much happier, and being that much happier allows me to focus much more on the blessings I have received in my life, without having that gnawing pain reminding me that I was lacking in health.
