  1. I've done reichian therapy. I have no idea about the book you mentioned. It does exactly what you said. It releases suppressed feelings/memories that are stored in mind-body. My therapist used many kind of techniques to make those memories or emotions show up.Usually the focus was on the body sensations. I've been having extreme psychosomatic symptoms that's why I ended up choosing this kind of therapy. It helped a lot, in general took away the anxieties and fears which are result of all those traumatic experiences of the past. The physical pain hasn't gone completely though so I continue looking for other kind of therapy to keep releasing old stuff.
  2. @MarkusSweden Read "No more Mr. Nice Guy" by Robert Glover! Since you've realised that you're a people pleaser try to be present whenever you're about to say something to someone and take baby steps. It will change in time!
  3. Age: 31 Gender: Male Location: Athens - Greece Occupation: Cinematographer Marital Status: Single Kids: No Hobbies: Playing a variety of musical instruments, cinema, theatre, arts, photography, travelling, meditation, personal growth I've been having some serious disorders, anxiety, fears, panic, depression, anger for a long time after my studies. After searching to improve my physical condition, I went to a random massage place to release the muscle pain before a really heavy weekend of work. In 10 minutes the massage guy gave me some serious tips by reading my behaviour and body language, like that I should look for a therapist and that my solution to my physical problems is not where I was looking for. So I started therapy, and at the same time I started reading stuff and I came up to Leo's videos and I was in awe. I started watching one after another, and also other youtube videos about self-help and then I realised that I had so serious issues that I wasn't aware of. I was so enthusiastic though ,that there's actually a solution to all these by changing myself. So it's been 9 months since then and I'm grateful everyday for that treasure called personal development. Things I've overcome: Panic attacks Anger Anxiety Quit smoking,weed, reduce alcohol, eating better Cut relationships with toxic people Being worried all the time about the future Being negative about everything Feeling lonely Things I'm working: Getting rid of guilt my financials building new friendships
  4. @egoeimai Classic greek!
  5. @sgn Thanks for the suggestion! I will look it up!
  6. Thank you all for your encouraging words. I know it takes time to heal, even though sometimes it becomes unbearable because I have this burden for years and I keep suffering without knowing what it is. After doing all this work so far, even during dark days, I'm sure that there's light ahead. Saying sorry for something that you did before 15 years, is a hard fight with ego. Hopefully my higher self will win!
  7. Hi to all of you! I've been on my path to enlightenment for a few months. I'm struggling with anxiety, fear, low energy and in general bad feelings for years. Also I suffer from chronic muscle pains all over my body. I started seeing a therapist and lately a reiki master and they already helped a lot. During my last session with the therapist, after going in deep guided meditation, I came to the conclusion that all my pain comes from something I did many years ago. Something that I'm really ashamed of, something that might hurt emotionally a member of my family forever. I think that finally I discovered the source of my suffering. During the meditation I felt the pain like a burden on my back, which hurts a lot lately. Most likely it's the guilt that I tried to shove deep inside for a long time, and my body reacts with all this pain. I know that my therapist will definitely help me get rid of it, like she did with other traumas of the past but I would also like some advice what to do, like what to read, what meditation I should do etc. I'm doing meditation consistently for 5 months now, and that helps a lot along with the therapies I'm taking. I've tried many types of meditation, depending on how I feel each day. I'm looking for information on how to get rid of the burden. I've already watched Leo's video of how to let go of the past and it helped me but I would like to work more specifically with that issue. All this time I feel like I'm trapped and I want to exhaust everything I got in order to live normally again. I thank you all in advance especially Leo for his amazing videos that already changed my life. English is not my mother tongue so excuse me.
