Trauma Paths

Wow, I didn't realize I had fallen down on the job here and not been posting for so long. Sorry about that.

So, the question was asked as to how the twists and turns that we get in our bodies affect our general energy levels. The answer is probably best seen as an analogy to a road blockage.

For Example, if there is an accident bad enough to cause a traffic jam then somehow the flow of traffic needs to be restored. This is usually done by someone slowing down the traffic, maybe shifting everyone into one lane and directing traffic around the blockage. I'm sure you've noticed that before you come up to the blockage traffic is flowing smoothly....and after you get past the blockage traffic can start returning to a normal smooth flow. But right in the vicinity of the blockage everything is truly jammed up.  So, when you have areas that are out of balance whether through injury, accident, birth, or just plain stress, it creates areas of blockage and the flow of your energy has to go around it. If you also recall being stuck in that traffic jam, your patience and joyfulness are not usually present. In fact you tend to be irritable and pained. So, guess how your body responds to the twists and turns and aches and pains of life. It too gets irritable, slow, moody and just wants out of the jam so it can get back in the free flow of life.
