Part two: Fibro Pain Relief Remedies and Tips

Question on spiritual healing: I have had fibromyalgia for almost ten years and have been getting seriously worse.

I have graduated to consros condritis (admin note: I believe the writer was referring to chondritis, a condition where cartilage joint surface becomes inflamed or costochondritis, an inflammation that occurs in the upper ribs area) and rynauds.

I can't work any more and I hate this. I want my life back.

I have traced bad attacks to cycles of suns high solar storms. The pain leaves me weeping and numb.

Also, I seem to be very susceptible to weather pressures and people with negative energy, which I try to block or avoid. Do you have any ideas on directions I might take?

Healing facilitation response: Fibromyalgia is a puzzling physical problem that commonly causes chronic pain, fatique and sleep disturbances. The symptoms can be so severe as to interfere with daily life.

Treatments for fibro vary from western medicine approaches like the prescription drug Lyrica to holistic wellbeing approaches and natural remedies for muscle pain.


As you know if you found your way to my site, I will answer your questions primarily from a spiritual perspective whenever the door is open for me to do so. You mentioned negative people as a factor in your fibro flare-ups. That's enough of an opening. Here goes...

The very journey of your spiritual self is part of the reason that fibromyalgia is a challenge. I've found that the most spiritually sensitive are also the most physically challenged, until they learn or are taught to balance the energies.

Fibro is a signal that higher energies are meeting cellular resistance. I still struggle with fibro, even though my pain is greatly diminished from what it was in 1988.

The times I struggle are directly related to either personal chaos or planetary chaos (sun flares are a form of planetary chaos, as are tragedies such as Tsunami, 9/11 and Katrina).

Spiritual Healing Practices for Fibro: Spiritual activities that have helped me balance times of planetary chaos include breath, sound, and dreamtime.

Breathwork is very effective as a tool for faclitating almost any type of healing and can be an important tool for reducing fibromyalgia pain as well as getting spiritually clear on the messages fibro might be sending about your life.

What happens when we experience pain is that our body contracts and we usually start to breathe in a far more shallow manner.

Whenever we consciously choose to breathe more deeply and with intent, we become more clear, more balanced and less at the whim of chaotic influences.

Whether that intent of breath is focused on balancing, clearing congestion that is causing pain, or the breathing in of clarity, the body responds to intentional breath.

Yet, due to programmed dread of pain and resistance to feeling it, full and focused breathing is the thing we close often down just when it would best serve us.

If you check yourself when the pain is worst, you will probably find that your breathing is shallow and sharp. Remember to use your breath with intent.

Sound is also a powerful tool because it impacts etheric levels thru vibrational intention. From chanting to toning until a perfect vibration comes thru that balances or clears or does whatever is needed, to primal screaming in a safe place, sound with intent is healing.

Dreamtime is another tool we forget to engage. I ask almost every night for dreamtime help. I specifically ask for physical healing, spiritual guidance, spiritual teachers, and etheric healers.

On other nights, I volunteer to go out and work with others as a healing facilitator.

A powerful way to enlist dreamtime help for fibro is to specifically ask for healing at a dna level. Spend some time meditating before going to sleep, visualizing your dna structure aligning itself for proper function through all your muscles and tissues.

Even if you don't know what dna looks like, just visualize muscles relaxing, releasing toxins, performing normal contraction and expansion, etc. Also, ask for healing facilitators to come help with healing at a cellular level and be specific.

Dealing with those who choose negative response

Weather and fibromyalgia, the connection from a spiritual perspective:
The weather is a more difficult fibro factor to talk about, since it is a representation of not just one person's energy but mass consciousness, yet, the same principal applies:

When we are out of the way, and letting God flow thru us, there is a stillpoint where appearances of chaos and imbalance do not shake our center.

I have been in that stillpoint at various times and though I have not mastered living there, I offer the vibration of that truth to assist you in finding your own stillpoint of being.

I know it feels as if you don't have your life, as if it is something you must get back. The truth is that you are a spiritual warrior full of life, who is being mightily trained and challenged. It is all good.
