Common Emotional Triggers
1. Unresolved Trauma
Emotional trauma often finds a home in our bodies, particularly in the back. A friend of mine struggled for years with back pain linked to unresolved issues from a past relationship. Once she started therapy, her physical discomfort began to fade, highlighting how deeply our emotions can affect us.
2. Chronic Stress
Living under constant stress can create a loop of pain. The more stressed you are, the tenser your muscles become, leading to chronic discomfort. It’s vital to recognize and manage stress through techniques like mindfulness and meditation.
