The Spiritual Basis for Neck and Back Pain

Posted in Back Pain, Channeling, Disease, Neck Pain by

Me: What about back pain and neck pain? A lot of people suffer from that. I have a feeling it has something to do with carrying around some sort of burden, but tell me about that.

Jamie: Sacrifice and burden?

Me: Yeah. Okay.

Jamie: No, I think he’s asking you. (to Erik): Erik, say it in a full sentence.

Me: I don’t know. I’m just wondering what the spiritual basis is for back and neck pain!

(Long pause)

Jamie (to Erik): All right. We all know that, Erik. (to me)  He goes, “Obviously not, if people keep asking!” (whispering) Oh, goodness.

Me: Why? Have we done this before? Have we already covered it?

Jamie: No, he’s saying, uh, right off the bat, he’s giving this small speech about, “Back and neck pain. It’s so different for everybody. Are we looking at someone who is injured because of emotional densities, or are they injured because of their spiritual contract, or are they injured because of a car accident or is, you know, it an accident not put into the contract, but now the4y have it, and this is what they’re dealing with, or are we talking—

Erik: Plus, back and neck, Mom—there’s so much shit there. Is it the bones? Are we looking at vertebrae? Are we looking at nerve damage, cuz that’s something totally different. Are we looking at soft tissue damage? Cuz that represents a whole nuther emotional vibrational quality.

Damn, when did he become a biologist? That wasn’t exactly his favorite subject in school.

Erik: Like, we really need to get down to the nitty gritty for each single person.

Me: Well, I think it’s really just basically people who, you know, they’re working on the computer and their neck starts to hurt where others might not have that problem. Or someone wakes up every morning with lower back pain, but in either case, there’s really no pathology in the bones, soft tissue or nerves that anyone can find.

Erik: Like chronic shit?

Me: Yeah. Like low grade—

Erik: Stiffness?

Me: Yeah, and pain, but no underlying obvious pathology like a herniated disc.

Erik: Because the person has agreed not to move their body, and they become stagnant and see their work as more valuable than their physical, emotional and mental health.

Me: Mm hm. What about when they’re not stagnant. They have neck or lower back pain, but—

Erik: Because they’re stupid assholes, Mom. They choose not to listen to what they’re body truly needs—

‘Oh, so I’m an asshole, now,’ I think as I rub my aching neck.

Erik:–and they push through; they push through. It’s the America fucking thing.

Me: Oh, yeah.

Erik: And they shut off what their body is trying to scream at them, and they say, “But I have to get this project done; I’ve gotta get this work done so I can have some free time.” That’s have we train our kids in fucking school. “Sit still, be still and listen to this shit and learn it; and when it’s time to move when the fucking bell rings, then you can get out of your goddam seat, but for right now, sit still and do it.”

Me: Whoa, Erik!

Jamie claps, laughing loudly.

Me: He’s ranting!

Jamie (still laughing): Oh my god, Erik! Applause, please!

Me: Yeah, take a bow, Erik!

Erik (chuckling): Seriously. I hate school!

Me: I know. You always have! Except the years I homeschooled y’all.

Erik: Absolutely. Those were the good years. So, that’s where the training comes from. It’s these sad people who’ve accepted from the teachers that it’s a good and hard value to include in your life, but it’s not.

Me: So, the spiritual basis for it—is it about authority and bending to it?

Erik: Yes, and pleasing. “I gotta please them. I gotta get this work done. I gotta do it the way I need to be doing it.”

Me: Okay, so that’s the spiritual connection to the usual back and neck pain that doesn’t really have an underlying pathologic basis?

Erik: Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You’re carrying the burden that other people give you that you don’t want, but you take it on, because you feel you have to. You want to please. You don’t want to disappoint. You don’t want to get your ass in trouble. You’d rather ignore your body and sacrificing your own needs.

Me: Makes sense.

Blog members and talented mediums, Cindy and Kent, have an exciting channeling event coming up in Colorado. If you’re anywhere in the area, you don’t want to miss it. Read on!

Channeling Demystified

 “Many times people make channeling really dramatic and it really isn’t.  That’s part of what we want you to teach. It’s what I like to teach because it connects people back to source and opens them up to what’s really important.”  -Maitland (channeled spirit)

Maitland was introduced to Kent Lehman through Jamie Butler.  Maitland has worked with Kent and his wife Cindy Musil to create the course Maitland titled, “Channeling: Demystifying this Natural Occurrence”, shortened to “Channeling Demystified”.

“Channeling” is a generic term used to describe the process of communicating with Spirit.  In this class, the couple will share their experiences, including techniques learned along the way.  Class attendees will learn to:

  • Describe three types of channeling and differentiate between characteristics that are common and unique to each channeling type.
  • Experience Spirit communication using “automatic writing” and discuss techniques to ensure an effective automatic writing session.
  • Explain the components of a trance channeling session and interact with Maitland through Kent as her channel.

Kent Lehman and Cindy Musil are psychic mediums and together have created Eclectic Horizons.  The class will be held Sunday, April 7, 12:30 – 4:30 p.m. in Lakewood, Colorado.  Click here to register.

    thank you Erik! makes perfect sense to me : ) (hugs!)
    I wish I could attend Ken and Cindy’s class but I am nowhere near Colorado : (
    I will have to ask them about possibly offering something online in the future. I had a reading with Kent over the summer (over the phone) and I was very pleased!

    • Eclectic Horizons

      Thank you for your comment, Lorraine. We’re researching potential on-line options, so your feedback is helpful. I’ll pass along your kind feedback to Kent as well. Take care! -Cindy

        you are welcome!great to know; I will be watching for it.

    My neck and shoulders have ached for most of my life, same with my mother and her mother. I used to have to give my mother neck rubs as a kid and she told me I would be the same way when I was older. I didn’t believe her but she was right and sometimes it is just a matter of genetics. I treat myself to those 20 minute mall backrubs on Fridays after a hard work week and I have a massage chair at home that gets a lot of use.

    I haven’t worked much with the rest of the spine, but I have worked a lot with lower back pain. The spine is a major part of our structural support system and the low back supports most of the body, so in terms of the subconscious, pain in that area can reflect a lack of support in some area of life: financial, emotional, etc. For example, I once treated a young lady who had had low back pain as long as she could remember. I discussed the “support” theory with her and she couldn’t think of any area of her life where she was lacking support, so I muscle tested her to find out when the pain started and it came up that she’d developed it when she was 6 years old. I asked her if she remembered what might have happened to her at that age and she said, “well, my dad left us at that time, but that couldn’t be related, could it?” It most certainly could! It turns out, her dad had recently re-entered her life and she was on good terms with him, so I helped her with some forgiveness issues from that time, asked her how her pain felt, and I saw her face light up in wonder because she couldn’t feel the pain anymore.

    For myself, personally, I suffered from low back pain for years, but it gradually disappeared after a lot of tapping on issues. However, when I made the decision to leave my job to take care of our son, without the financial support of my income, my back pain returned with a vengeance and was only alleviated by addressing those financial concerns.

    Many questions have been asked about pain, but there don’t seem to be a lot of references about healing. I see that Erik is positive about EFT, but I am wondering about other forms of energy healing. I wonder what he would say about the healing codes that are presented by Dr. Alex Loyd, who claims that they were given to him by God.

    • http://www.channelingerik.com Elisa Medhus, MD

      I agree. I haven’t asked enough about healing. Can you email me a list of specific questions. I’d love to hear if he says there are specific healing solutions for each condition (migraines, chronic fatigue, etc.) but I bet he’d say each case is different.)

      • Joanne Campbell

        I would love to do this, but I am not sure how to email you. I think that I can come up with some good specific questions.

      • Dr Laurie

        Maybe a better question to ask is about healing methods and techniques that can be applied to all conditions. Obviously you have the standard stuff (traditional medicine, chiropractic, acupuncture), but what about techniques that may be more obscure? Ones that use the healing energy from “out there?” Reiki, Quantum Touch, Theta Healing, etc.? I would love to hear what Erik recommends about these. Then people can search out practitioners in their area for their health issues.

      • http://www.channelingerik.com Elisa Medhus, MD

        I know he’s mentioned that we need the whole approach: mind/body/spirit: energy healing, traditional medicine and psychological therapy as a team. Eventually, however, he thinks that everything will be energy healing. We’re just not there yet.

      • http://www.channelingerik.com Elisa Medhus, MD

        Can you email me a list of all those techniques so I can ask him about each one specifically? emedhus@gmail.com. Thanks!!

    This makes sense to me. For a few years I had a horrible pain in my lower back right side. It would come and go typically lasting a few days and would come about 1-2 times per month. I had been to the hospital and my primary doctor they ran tests, etc. They thought it might be kidney stones (that had crushed themselves down to sediment) however, never could see any in tests so nothing was confirmed. I had every test ran and nothing was ever discovered to be wrong but the pain was UNREAL and had me in tears at times, and I consider myself to be pretty tough where pain in concerned. Anyway, I switched jobs a little over a year ago. My last job was a nightmare to me. Though the new job was much better in many respects (I had respect of my bosses, etc.) the workload is/was pretty heavy. I stressed myself out at the new job just trying to do everything perfectly and worked insane hours, etc. However, I decided not to kill myself over work anymore; that things will get done and get done well and I am just one person but I do need days off, etc… and you know what, I think that is about the time my mysterious back pain subsided. I haven’t had that pain in about 5 months now (knock on wood). Though I don’t think my pain stemmed from being immobile for too many hours a day, I think just the mental shift of not being prisoner to my work and to have some type of personal time may have been what was needed to free myself of the mystery pain. Work to live not live to work :)

    Erik: Like, we really need to get down to the nitty gritty for each single person.

    I had to stop and enjoy a LOL moment here, as my neck makes this gritty sound when I turn my head. It sounds like particles of sand to me. Anyway I made the connection that I am too obsessed with the nitty gritty of details… :(

  • Shirley Willis

    Thank you Elisa Wow.I think Erik hit it right on the head for me.I am so eager to please. I grew up in a very emotionally and physically abuse home and I am sure I am still carrying a lot of burdens from my upbringing.So all kinds of bells started going off for me when i read this .I actually had a dream that told me to let go of the guilt I was carrying.The thing is I do not know how to let it go, but I am working on it.thank you so so much for this post and hugs to all of you.

    I would like to add a little bit of what I have learned from my training and practice as a licensed massage therapist. I have worked on and with many types of pain and conditions presented by clients and patients. The entire skeletal system/structure of the body is entirely supported by our muscled and the origins and insertions in the bones. Without our muscles our bones would fall in a heap…our heads would literally roll. Healthy muscle tone is incredibly important…as well as the metabolism and physiology of nutrients, and their delivery to every part of the body. This means that our circulatory system, arterial, venous, and lymphatic, all need to be in balance. Oxygen delivery to every cell in our body is crucial to our being. Any impairment to the circulation of oxygen is going to result in dis-ease…in varying degrees. Stress and prolonged tension has an effect on us in ways often aware. I think the beauty and effectiveness of massage is that it supports circulation and and increases the flow of nutrient and oxygen rich blood to every part of the body, while not creating lactic acid…which is a byproduct of exercise, it eases the load on the heart, lowers blood pressure, all of which results in healing and relaxation. Massage, given by a medically trained therapist, can relieve a lot of pain, depending on its origin. In any case, given correctly, it can be a great help. Besides, I am convinced that in our culture there is not enough skin contact and touch that is non-sexual. Our culture promotes sexuality, equates massage, in general, with sexual stimulation….but has long departed from infant massage as it existed in primitive cultures, and has reduced human touch to a hand shake, or a very quick hug. Think about it: when was the last time someone held your hand for longer that a couple seconds, massaged your hands, or your feet, your back…stroked your cheek…..and asked nothing from you in return? I believe we are deprived of touch, and we deprive ourselves of self-nurturing as a result. I often think that if therapuetic massage were available to everyone on this planet, there would be fewer conflicts….even between nations…leaders would say…”Oh, I’m sorry….I don’t have time for war…it’s time for my massage!” , then they would be feeling so peaceful afterwards, they would avoid anything that interrupted that feeling of peace and relaxation, and wholeness…well, I can dream, can’t I??
