For the last week I've had have a pain radiates out from the
centre of my sacrum, over my bum to the hips and then down my legs through
the middle of my thighs and into the backs of me knees. It started higher in my back but now its right
in the sacroiliac joint and nerve. Its tender, its on fire, its aching. Each
time a heath practitioner touches me they say “Oh wow” or “Goodness me!”. Its a
polite way of expressing their shock and
wonder at how I managed to get so tight in there. The lightest of touches
causes me to flinch. The muscles are knotted and twisted on the surface and fiery
red angry deep down.
I've always had problems emanating from my hips. The muscles
that attach to them, and its always caused problems up and down my legs.
On my acupuncturists table this morning I made a connection that
I never made before. One that is so blindingly obvious and simple that I cannot
believe that I only see it now.
These are the parts of my body that I hate the most. Yes, I loathe
these powerful limbs and bones that support my body every day.
I need to love myself to heal myself. I have to listen to
what my body is saying to me.
