The Emotional Root of Knee Problems

Knees problems hide an underlying sense of fear, worry and insecurity. Missing the feeling of belonging, integration, and grounding ... the feeling of being part of a secure, safe family, community or society.

Knees pain signals some reluctance or unwillingness to move forward or change direction especially when you feel un-supported by your family or community, you feel that you are flowing against the current and striving to change the norms.
​
Knees also start to ‘whisper’ when there are some major changes going on in your life. It could be physical change or changes in beliefs and thinking pattern… when your beliefs about what is true and valuable in life are challenged by your reality, community and environment… When your identity and self-worth are at stake or questioned.
 
If your knees are causing you problems, you need to start asking yourself where in my life do I need to surrender more? What do I need to let go of? Do I need to be more flexible and understanding? I am being stubborn and refusing to let life flow with ease and spontaneity?
What fears am I storing: is it fear of loss, fear of failure, fear of being not enough, fear of criticism, fear of breaking hearts or crushing dreams?
 
Knees problems shows some form of conflict with the ego, a prideful unwillingness to give up or give in. Pride doesn’t always mean arrogance, sometimes pride denotes the inability to accept our human limitation and keep fighting and struggling and banging our head against a wall in a lost battle.

Take the Decision Today!

Are you exhausted, {!firstname_fix}?
Are you running like the poor hamster in a wheel not even knowing why you are running and where you are heading?
Do you feel like life is dragging you along a path you didn’t choose?
Do you feel tired, depleted, and even depressed at times?

I’ve been there, in fact, I’ve lived in there for years… this seems to be the typical ‘modern’ lifestyle.
We’re always doing, doing and doing some more…

You know what broke this vicious cycle for me? it was finding my voice, finding my true-life meaning, mission and passion... Finding a bigger picture, a bigger meaning to live for.
 
Steven Pressfield wrote in his book ‘The War of Art’: “If tomorrow morning by stroke of magic every dazed and benighted soul woke up with the power to take the first step toward pursuing his or her dreams, every shrink in the directory would be out of business. Prisons would stand empty. The alcohol and tobacco industries would collapse, along with the junk food, cosmetic surgery, and infotainment businesses, not to mention pharmaceutical companies, hospitals, and the medical profession from top to bottom. Domestic abuse would become extinct, as would addiction, obesity, migraine headaches, road rage, and dandruff.”
 
But the question remain, how and where can I find my voice, my passion and my life meaning? How can I see the big picture?
I am afraid the answer is not easy or straightforward. It is not in a workshop, a book or a seminar… Your voice is not hidden behind a tree or buried in an enchanted forest… you can’t find it by reading self-help text or even by journaling day and night nor by meditating and exhaling your fears and worries out – although all those tools are helpful and even essential- the only way for you to find your true voice, passion and meaning is by doing the work… by going out there, meeting people, experimenting, working, failing, standing up again, working again, failing again, trying some more and failing some more… Our failures are our greatest teachers, not our successes… Our voice is waves in motion … stagnation kills it… even when motion is not always pretty, not always easy, and the path is not always clear… we have to keep going … We have to do it any way!
 
H. Ruumet says: “A flower does not strive to bloom. It does not consult botanical experts about being a better bloomer. Nor does it ponder whether it should become a rose or a daisy. Given the right environment, it blooms naturally and it blooms into the kind of flower its seed meant it to be”
 
It is your job to create this ‘right’ environment as much as you can and you, my friend, will definitely bloom… Take the decision now to shed all worries and fears… our soul knows how to bloom, all you need to do is allowing it! Take the decision to do the needed work every day even if you do not feel like it... Take the decision to keep going even if the path seems blurry and your steps are shaky... Take the decision and keep going my friend, the world is waiting for what you have to offer!
