Hello Warrior Family,
Today I want to share my experience when dealing with injury and go deeper into it as I usually like to do. If you haven’t checked my previous post of what I learned after being cursed by someone click here
It all started when I was dancing and I accidentally stepped wrong, which caused my leg to twist & the kneecap to pop out of place. This sudden movement caused bruising in my thigh bone and the back of my shinbone and I partially tore my ACL (an important knee ligament),and sprained my MCL, another knee ligament.
When this happened, I had no idea what the physical injury would teach me about the mind-body connection because this was the first time I’ve experienced an injury-let alone how it would impact my emotional and mental health.
It’s something that kinda fascinates me I love monitoring and learning about the processes.
As I navigated through the stages of healing, I began to realize that my recovery wasn’t just a matter of physical therapy and rest—it involved much deeper, more intricate processes, some of which connected directly to my mental and emotional state. The injury happened after I found the strength within me to speak up about something important and end a loop of suffering.
A few days after that, when I processed the emotional baggage of the first event and began regulating my nervous system to exist survival mode through dancing, I found myself on the floor, unable to move or later on exercise. For me this had a huge effect because movement and exercise has been very important in my journey especially for transmuting energy, maintaining balance and chi circulation.
The Physical Injury and the Brain’s Response
The brain, as the central hub of our nervous system, immediately reacts to injury by sending signals to various parts of the body. These signals are typically understood through two broad categories: acute pain and compensatory pain. Upon injury, the brain’s first response is to alert you of the damage through the pain network—this is an immediate survival response, as the body tries to protect the area of injury by restricting movement and promoting rest.
As I limped around, trying to adjust to my new physical limitations, the brain also releases a cascade of chemicals like endorphins to manage the discomfort. The nervous system enters a state of heightened awareness, constantly monitoring the body for signs of further injury. My sensory cortex was on overdrive, amplifying every sensation in my knee. I was trying to hack my body and return back to “normal” and refusing to see a doctor until I felt like I could physically be in someone’s presence energetically without feeling exposed.
I personally don’t like to expose myself into the external environment while I’m feeling vulnerable yet alone let some “doctor”with dormant DNA touch me or transfer his energy while I’m in pain. Throughout my awakening journey I’ve learned to move energy and blockages from my body as a form of my training from my other dimensional versions but I’ve never came across a tear or bone bruising so I didn’t know how to do it myself this time.
I had my stream working on it at night and they helped to pop my kneecap back in during sleep but the rest was my responsibility to fix.
2-3 weeks after that I was feeling less vulnerable so after weeks turned into a month without substantial healing, I did go to get xray and MRI to see what happened.
At first, I did what I knew always worked for me. Prolonged water fasting. It helped with the inflammation, swelling and detoxification from the pain medication and the radiation from the machines but still wasn’t cured completely.
The body—and the brain—began to face additional stress. When a muscle tear or ligament injury doesn’t heal properly or quickly enough, it often leads to chronic pain or a compensatory imbalance in other muscle groups. The nervous system adapts by “shifting”—either becoming overly sensitive (hyperalgesia) or desensitizing itself to pain altogether. In either case, the entire body was affected. Plus I could not ground the energy or stretch or move my chi because the injury was affecting the bone marrow (our chi runs through the bone marrow). I have a specific way of doing it by drawing energy from the earth through the left leg and then grounding through the right leg; but due to the injury I wasn’t able to do so.
Emotional and Mental Impact
The injury didn’t just affect me physically. I felt frustrated..the forced isolation was a sign for me to release control and just accept that I needed to rest and stop thinking about muscle loss or and weight gain. In my mind there was this “ but how can I do my job if …bla bla bla”? people would think that “bla bla bla and they can’t assume I had this injury and I’m too much of an introvert to bother to explain the whole story. And then what if If blabla bla, why would I even talk about it..I don’t want to bring attention to it before I heal”.
This emotional state wasn’t a byproduct of my injury—it was intricately tied to how my brain and nervous system were responding to pain and to the subconscious trauma it was triggering.
My physical therapist said that it could take up to 6-8 months for me to fully recover so I had to forget about the gym urges and tend to my body in other ways.
Jungian psychology offers a perspective that emotions and physical sensations are deeply interconnected. The concept of “psychosomatic” symptoms explains how emotional distress can manifest physically, and vice versa. The experience of pain was not only felt in my knee; it reverberated through my entire being causing blockages in other areas. The more frustrated I became, the more anxious I became about my healing. This anxiety compounded my physical discomfort, and soon my body was stuck in a loop of chronic pain and mental tension because I wanted to accelerate my recovery and get back in the gym to my routines, to the new year resolutions not to slow down and or adapt to anything that I didn’t want to do..Does it sound familiar? 🙃 yes yes welcome!
Psychosomatic symptoms often arise when unresolved emotional conflicts are held in the body. These emotional blockages can impact the body’s healing process, and vice versa, creating a vicious cycle of physical and emotional distress. Not being able to ground the energy stored in the body, creates and environment of overwhelm, loop processing the same energy.
Exploring the Archetypes and Gene Keys
During my recovery, I was getting glimpses about certain topics that I was unaware before but somehow they were all linked to things I was taught in earlier years. I turned to deeper spiritual and psychological frameworks for insight. I knew that Jungian psychology on archetypes helps in understanding the patterns. I was sensing that there was something I was healing through the injury but the timing didn’t feel quite right in my eyes..or so I thought..Because a few days after my injury my aunt had a knee injury too..I realised then that it was something deeper and family related that we were processing together. I didn’t know details about it but maybe I didn’t need to. The knee is often associated with stability, movement, and the foundation of our actions. In my case, the injury wasn’t just a physical injury—it was a wake-up call, a symbol of how the foundation of my life was shifting and some cellular belief systems associated with the recent shift before the injury had to be rewired.
The Gene Keys, helped me make sense of this period of my life. According to the Gene Keys, each person has a unique set of patterns—referred to as “keys”—that guide us towards healing. These keys not only reflect our strengths but also our shadows, the deeper unconscious material that holds us back. You can find out more about it in this article.
During that time I was trying to hold onto routines that kept my frequency high so that I can keep operating through my connection and higher aspects of self but after a while some of my abilities went dormant again and I felt more “human”. This caused even more anxiety in me because this injury was a result of a curse from a person I who I believed was a friend. I will explain more about it here. This psychic attack happened to slow me down, to distract and limit me from pursuing my purpose. So instead of blaming an external threat I took responsibility for my reality and what showed up, regardless of who caused it and what it was.
By understanding which Gene Key and archetype were influencing me at the time, I could focus my healing efforts on specific emotional and psychological patterns. I realized that my knee injury was connected to a larger theme in my life: a fear of the unknown, a lack of trust in my ability to step into new territories which was subconscious and probably not just my own issue. Addressing these fears and working on building trust in myself was essential to my physical recovery.
Now do you see what I meant in the previous article and why I reintroduced meat back into my diet after 10 years? When I said “ I didn’t want to enter back into THAT aspect of self and process the earthy reality because I liked being out of my body, not consuming animal flesh and not being attached to the physical dimension, no being affected by the density but I kind of had to in order to bring things full circle, shift perspectives and share my experience.You can find the whole story here
Focused Healing: From Physical Recovery to Emotional Wholeness
To heal fully, I had to address the mind, body, and find a way to realign my spirit and consciousness —everything is intertwined. I had to pause for a year to figure things out because everything has changed. What the curse did was a huge set back for me and for what I do and I am still working on things. It takes time to fix what happened and it can certainly not happen overnight so the only thing K can do is take it day by day and extract the lessons. Focus on the present and keep moving forward.
This holistic approach allowed me to recover not just physically but emotionally and mentally as well.
1. Physical Focus: I began by committing to a steady rehabilitation program that involved not just strengthening the knee, but also supporting the surrounding muscles to restore balance and flexibility. I paid attention to my body’s signals—when to push and when to rest.
2. Emotional Release: I also worked on releasing the pent-up emotions that had been stored in my body. I practiced mindfulness and meditation to reduce stress, and detoxifying more often which in turn helped reduce muscle tension and bettering my ability to feel my heart. Journaling allowed me to express and release fears and anxieties that were tied to my injury and planning my day in different ways.
3. Nervous System Regulation: One of the most significant steps in my recovery was learning how to regulate my nervous system without depending on exercise, yoga, or movement. I was in survival mode and I had to learn a new way of feeling safe within my body and the space surrounding me. I was practicing deep Breathing exercises and holding my breath and through sound I was hacking my way back into my body accessing my energy field by moving my chi upwards towards the pineal glad. That activity when practiced daily was re engaging my consciousness stream through the spinal fluid & my abilities were slowly coming back online again.But I had to do this every day for 2-3 hours because I was losing progress if I didn’t. That’s why I stopped filming the new moon readings for a while. Somatic awareness helped me manage the heightened anxiety I was feeling, which directly impacted my body’s healing ability. I started to see how my nervous system was “holding” my injury, and by soothing the nervous system, I could accelerate recovery.
Another technique I used was cold and hot water exposure to reset my feeling ability and align my awareness through the temperatures of the earth since this was one of the ways I could ground.
4. Inner Work: I re-explored the Jungian archetypes that represented the stages of my healing journey—particularly the archetype of the “Wounded Healer.” This was a period of deep introspection, where I not only sought physical recovery but emotional integration. Each time I reframed my mental blocks around the injury, I created new space for growth. And being a highly intuitive person I could feel how others were assuming things through their perspective about my life but I had to stop caring about it all together. This time I needed all my energy to be all about myself and had to let them believe whatever they had to and detach myself from it. I don’t usually do that..I usually like to explain things my way and educate their shadows but this time was different. I gave it all up, to find me again.
5. Expanding Awareness: Through creative expression and re-engaging my inner child back into art creation & spiritual practices and other tools helped me align my mental, emotional, and physical energies, and feeling safe to
BE.
My healing process wasn’t solely focused on the injury but on my overall well-being using different methods and aspects of self and readjusting to my environment in a different way.
Conclusion: A Unified Healing Journey
Healing from a knee injury or muscle tear goes beyond the physical. The brain and nervous system respond not just to the damage done to the body but also to the emotional and psychological impact of that injury. By understanding the deep interconnectedness of mind and body, and applying principles of Jungian psychology, archetypes, and the Gene Keys, I found that I could heal not only the physical damage but also emotional wounds that I didn’t even realize existed. Alone time is always beneficial for me but I tend to destruct myself with cleaning & organising as a coping mechanism. So it’s about becoming aware of everything and then finding out where that is coming from. Finding the root. Sometimes we don’t get the answers immediately or directly but time reveals everything so trusting the processes and know that everything gets better.
The key takeaway from my experience is that true healing requires addressing the body, mind, and spirit together. Our injuries can serve as profound teachers, showing us where we need to grow—emotionally, spiritually, and mentally and what we are healing for the entire lineage or collective. So, if you’re healing from an injury, I encourage you to listen to your body, explore your emotional patterns, and trust that healing happens not just from the outside in but from the inside out.
Doctors are there to show you their perspective and give answers to certain things that they see but YOU are responsible for your beliefs about yourself & your own recovery. Your beliefs have the ability to change your life. it’s your choice whether it’s for the better or for the worse. Strengthen yourself and your self worth and trust in the powerful current that runs through you. You are more capable than you think and you will soon find out more about it in your own divine timing.
