Did you ever wonder why some of your friends sail through their monthly cycles without giving out a whine, becoming grumpy or depressed? Lisa and I were discussing recently as we were adding to another chapter in the new book. If you are one of the ladies who has had or continue to have what my mother called “Woman’s problems” then please read on.
You probably know that a hot water bottle on your tummy is a nice way to try to relax your muscles during menstruation. You might even be using medication, herbal teas or even meditation. All of these have an impact, so why are we bothering to mention this to you? Well what if you are still having your first period, every single month!
Our work today is light years from the trainings of a few years ago. Nowadays we focus on development full stop! Development means facing your fears, which isn’t an easy thing to do. Many people will jump out of an aeroplane once with a parachute or bungee jump from a tall crane. These are fears that we can face consciously and we get an adrenaline kick out of doing them, but ‘real’ fear isn’t conscious and it isn’t fun, it’s activated automatically by our mind.
What’s Fear got to do with my terrible periods?
Can you remember where you were when you had your first period? Our work on Split-second Unlearning suggests that significant emotional events, traumatic or even benign, can have a profound impact on your health and wellbeing in later life. If you were sufficiently stressed during your first show of blood, then your mind may have created an emotional memory image. Emotional memory images stay within the forefront of your mind, triggering the original stress response each time you enter a similar context. If you apply this to your periods then I’m sure that you can see how clearing the emotional memory image could be helpful to you.
How can I clear my own emotional memory image?
The simple answer is that you can’t. Emotional memory images are stored inside the non conscious mind, for a very good reason; once they are created, you never have to think about them again and they will always work, even when the results aren’t what you want. The good news is we aren’t going to leave you here, we have found a way to help you that doesn’t involve you having to pay big money for a one to one session with me. The MindReset app has a program in it called ‘Fast Reset’, now if you use this setting at the onset of your period, it has the potential to clear your emotional memory image.
All you have to do is bring your curiosity with you. We would love you to use this process yourself or recommend it to another woman who needs a hand. This isn’t an exact science, so you might need to use it a couple of times per month every month, just at the beginning of your period, throughout your period, to only once. Your mind knows what’s best for you. Please leave us a review on App Store or email us…. Let’s stop period pains, period…
Best wishes
Matt and Lisa
