In the book Awakening Intuition by Dr. Mona Lisa Schulz, I recently read something that felt true to my own experience as a highly sensitive person having lower back pain at certain times in my life.
In the book, Dr. Schulz talks about how lower back pain is part of our intuitive guidance system. It is effectively telling us that something is off balance in our lives. It is, she says, the number one cause of workmen’s disability in the United States, “not just for furniture movers or dockworkers but for white-collar workers as well.”
