Guilt, Self-Punishment, and Chronic Symptoms (And why they all go together)

In this video, I provide some insight on the lesser-discussed emotions of guilt and patterns of self-punishment that may be at the heart of chronic mindbody symptoms.
Guilt can lead to ways of behaving that punish the individual, creating conflict and dissatisfaction within the inner self.

Pearls of wisdom from this lady. I get a lot from litening to her "Chronic pain is a messenger as a reflection of your own emtional state." That is powerful.

Thanks so much for your feedback! When I make these videos, sometimes they also serve as a great reminder for myself as well ;-)

I have exhibited similar behaviors to the guilt you are describing. After my divorce I punished myself by not allowing basketball. I used to shoot daily and play competitively twice a week. I haven't played much since and I used to love it. When I retired, I denied music which was the focus of my career. Why? Guilt for leaving my audience. Regarding days off, I never took them. I couldn't get to everything on my "to do" lists.
Now I often take days off and my symptoms drop when I do. I've reintroduced music. I'd like to shoot baskets again, but for the moment my limping won't allow it. I'm begun visualizing myself on the court. That should help. Any other suggestions welcome.
