Psychosomatics: headache
A blocked impulse aimed at a specific goal
When a person feels the urge to act but resists it internally, that tension settles in the nervous system and surfaces as head pain. Without a specific target for the suppressed impulse, the headache simply doesn't arise.
Possible psychological causes
- Resisting a specific life impulse
- Blocking an action the body is driving toward
- A clash between a rational decision and the body's need
- Suppressing signals coming from the body
Self-reflection questions
- ?What specific action are you not taking?
- ?What impulse are you suppressing right now?
- ?What changed in your life just before the pain appeared?
