Did you know that your bones store the words your mouth didn't share!!
When you hold back expresing yourself, especially words linked to emotions, the body contracts to contain that energy.
Muscles tense, fascia tightens, and joints (especially shoulders, knees, and jaw) become emotional locks.
Over time as you continue to not speak when you desire too, when you hold expression back, that heaviness begins to sink into your bones.
Some of the emotions that can be stored in your bones .... Fear, Insecurity, Grief, and Loneliness.
Chronic back pain, joint pain, stiffness, osteoporosis, brittle nails, brittle teeth, stiff neck, leg weakness, and bone cancer, are just some of the physical ways emotions in the bones can show up in the body.
An affirmation that you can use is ....
"I release all fear, insecurity and grief stored in my bones. I embrace strength. stability, and vitality in my body."
- when doing any form of affirmation work you must truly believe and feel the words as you say them. Then see your bones healthy, see the end desired goal complete.
- you may feel sadness, anger, frustration, coming to the surface as you repeat the affirmation. Allow yourself cry, ugly cry, or scream into a pillow, any healthy way of realising your body is craving for... this can even including stamping your feet, shaking your body, and even dancing.
"Pain is the echo of the sentence you never finished."
- unknown
A simple way to discover what you are holding onto is to check your body for sore points.
โช๏ธ move your hands around your body pushing down slightly as you go. Once you discover an area that is sore, find the stiffest point (which most likely will be the most painful point) and then press on it.
โช๏ธ when you feel the pain ask yourself "Who or what am I still being polite with?"
You may get a name, a memory, a person, or an event pop in your mind, you may even get several.
- you will feel the tension spike when the right name or event surfaces.
โช๏ธ inhale through the nose while pressing gently on the tense joint.
As you exhale, say out loud (or in your head) what you wanted to say in that moment - even if it's raw, unfair, or unkind.
โช๏ธ Keep breathing until the muscle softens.
- the body desires you to stop holding it.
Neurophysiologists discovered when suppressed emotion is acknowledged aloud, vagal tone rises and inflammatory markers drop within minutes.
The body literally relaxes after emotional completion.
๐ฅ If your joint hurts, or you have stifness or pain in your body, don't ask what's wrong with the body - ask what truth it's carrying ๐ฅ
Side note ~ some foods that will benefit bone health .... black sesame seeds, goji berries, walnuts, spinach, pearl powder, chinese red dates, seaweed, carrots, and sesame seeds.
