What are some experiences related to childhood vows?
1. If you go to a massage therapist or chiropractor regularly and notice the same recurring point of tension or pain, you could have a vow in body memory at that place.
2. If you suffer from recurring migraine headaches there could be a major discrepancy between your actual life now and what you thought/were taught it would/should be as a child.
3. Do you have chronic neck or shoulder tension? There is likely a way you decided nobody should ever talk to you.
4. Are indulgences of eating, shopping, drinking, smoking, or gambling out of balance or.even out of control? There could be several vows involved, including I can’t get enough, money is the root of all evil (so I need to get rid of it), or when I get big, I can do what I want.
5. If you experience the same kinds of problems in your relationships, even when your partner changes, there could be vows related to the first relationships you observed in life – the way your parents interacted.
6. Do you tend to please others while denying yourself, experience jealousy, or never feel “good enough?” If so, there could be vows in place from what you decided about yourself as a child.
