On Crushing Doubt, we often have on pain sufferers in the process of recovery or having conquered many, or all, of their symptoms. Today, I’m sharing Ron’s journey from muscle and nerve pain to nearly pain free in just four sessions. Don’t get discouraged if this isn’t happening yet for you, though, as this just happens to illustrate how quickly things CAN change when some of the core principles hit at just the right angle and time for the sufferer.

We began by exploring his emotional life and getting his themes more articulated, which led to some powerful emotional relief and symptom reduction. This all came about by learning to understand the communication of the symptoms between the unconscious self and the body. By translating it into conscious thought, Ron gained some freedom and relief.

We then had another breakthrough in our second and third sessions, related to doubt. While Ron had always doubted everything, we used this as a strength, of sorts, because his doubts were easy to articulate and to learn from with respect to which angles he needed to feel settled in his belief in the science and logic. When this was more settled, he found even more relief.

But the biggest breakthrough came in our session about power, in which he finally understood the onset of his nerve pain and how it related — to the second — to a decision about being powerful or not.

Ron shares that he continues to do well in his recovery, making new gains in his own work on it, using the principles he learned with me. It is a pleasure to share his story of relief and growth.
