I am encouraged to try alternative ways. According to Boorstein; “Since I know suffering is manageable, I am not as frightened of pain as i used to be.”

Besides the moment I feel some pain I apply on various parts of my body, Jean Netario Cruz’ magnesium. If the pains persist I apply more magnesium.
It always works for me.

Boorstein also stated: It’s not a big problem anymore because fear doesn’t frighten me as much as it used to. It’s from clinging and I know it will pass.”

“If things are painful and we cannot change them, we can at least be confident that our pain will not last forever. Often ,it is the thought that pain will never end that makes it seem unbearable.”

Shortly after I had my mild stroke I wold go for massage by the blind. Shoulder aches and pains plus those in the upper right arm disappeared by the time my masseuse went on her maternity leave.

I now believe the aches and pains were caused by poor circulation. Of course I know that my negative thoughts and fears were partly to be blamed.
