PLEASE DO NOT CARRY A PURSE/BAG ON YOUR SHOULDER 😩

Carrying a bag on your shoulder requires constant isometric contraction of shoulder girdle elevation musculature, namely upper trapezius and/or rhomboids.

This will likely result is used/overused/misused/abused tight muscles, most likely with pain and dysfunction to follow.

And it does not even matter if the bag is empty… simply to keep the bag from sliding off, the musculature will have to constantly tighten. 😑

Our shoulders naturally slope downward, so this simply does not work well.

What to do?
Get a cross-body bag that goes over your head and over the opposite shoulder. 😊

Of course, if you can make the bag as light as possible (whatever is in there that you have not used in the last few weeks, take out!), and if the strap is wider to spread out the force on your shoulder, all the better. 🤩

Tight shoulders tend to lead to neck pain and stiffness, and tension headaches, so go to a store or go online, and get a cross-body bag 👍🏽👍🏽

Does meditation come easy for you, or do you struggle?

Many people who meditate reach a point where they feel overwhelmed. This may appear in many forms: physical pain, emotional distress, nausea, panic, or another type of dis-ease. When people hit that wall, they assume they are doing something wrong in their meditation. In the perception of that person who is confronted by the unknown, it’s perfectly logical to draw the conclusion that they can’t control their mind.

Yes, the mind seems out of control — but you have stepped into noticing that state and being present with it. Most people identify with their thoughts so strongly that they don’t notice the mind is always looking for something to grab on to. Being unaware allows them to stay in the comfortable, familiar known. It also ensures that nothing will change in their life. Once you have chosen to accept that there will be discomfort and you choose to proceed anyway, you are on the path to change.

When you notice the subconscious programs that control how you think and feel, you start reclaiming control over your life. If you feel overwhelmed in meditation, stay for as long as you can. There’s nothing wrong with getting up if you feel unable to continue—but come back to your practice. Don’t let the discomfort of uncertainty deter you from your intention. You are training yourself to become greater than the emotions and thoughts that sabotage you. You are clearing out the subconscious programs that have been blocking the emergence of a miracle — and that miracle is who you really are.
