Do you ever have a crick in the neck - a pain that lingers for days and keeps reminding you that something’s wrong there? Here’s my most recent story of having this problem - and what I did about it.
…

I’d had neck discomfort for more than a week, maybe two weeks this time. I didn’t want to call it a pain – though there were a few brief painful moments, especially at first.

Try as I might, I couldn’t stretch my neck far enough in any direction to unpinch a nerve. A friend lovingly kneaded my neck and shoulder muscles, relaxing them. Yet my misery continued unabated.

This Saturday morning, unimpeded by the need to leave for work, with spare time on my hands, I sat at my computer and opened a file named “Morning Ritual”. In there I’ve posted a few morning prayers I like to use, and a format for recording my morning inspirations, goals, and intentions. One section is for recording information about whatever EFT I choose to do that day.

EFT = Emotional Freedom Techniques.

When I saw that notation in my file today, I remembered I had the crick in my neck. It was the only problem I could think of as it was bothering me quite a lot, as usual.

My EFT setup phrase was “Even though I have a crick in my neck, I deeply and completely accept myself.” In EFT, the setup phrase is repeated three times while an accupressure point on the side of the hand is tapped repeatedly. Next I did the full ‘basic recipe’ adding in tapping points on top of my head and on my wrists. I also included both sides so it was a basic recipe, plus. (If you don’t know what a ‘basic recipe’ is, you need to read the free e-book!)

When I got done I still felt a tiny bit of soreness in my neck, but it didn’t hurt. I decided to leave it be, and went on to doing other things.

It wasn’t until about an hour later that I realized the crick in my neck was 100% gone for the first time in days. All day long, my neck has felt absolutely wonderful. No crick; no pain!
