When it come to life changing or transformational systems, I have done my due diligence. For forty years I have explored every type of religion, mysticism, psychological and emotional healing and personal growth system I could find. I was constantly seeking the most powerful method, the newest breakthroughs. It wasn't until I was in my mid fourties (thirteen years ago) that I actually started to "find". The profound change and integrations I have experienced since then cannot be measured. I am very grateful to say the least.

On the path to wholeness we can find ourselves going through times of existential angst. This is the feeling that there is no reason to live. There is no meaning in anything we do, and it can seem like an impasse. We can can have strong feelings about our existence such as: "If this is reality, then what?"

How to use a proactive program to rapidly integrate your subconscious negativity and pain.
Thanks to Oprah and Eckhart Tolle, integration of subconscious pain, "your pain body", as a means to spiritual awakening is fast becoming a household "word". This article describes how you can become proactive and rapidly increase the rate and results of your integrative practice.
Demystifying the Pain Body
Your pain body consists of a reservoir of all the unprocessed pain in your past. This includes all types of emotional, mental and even physical trauma. The reason any particular incident may be part of this reservoir is determined by how you held it at the time. If it overwhelmed you and you "decided" you needed to repress or suppress it, then you deposited it in your pain body bank. From the time of very early childhood til now, this has been your habit. Unfortunately our society teaches us to do this. So you have this pain body bank full of deposits and what is the result?
It "Bites You In The Butt"!
Because this unprocessed or integrated pain is now hidden from your consciousness, does not mean that it is gone. It shows up when you least expect it and in very inconvenient ways. All types of compulsive behavior including addictive behaviors come from your pain body. Inappropriate emotional reactions such as rage, irrational fear and panic attacks, hurt feelings and vengeance or even arguing and opinionating grow out of this pain body bank. Even the more subtle forms of suffering such as poor self image or lack of confidence and moodiness arise from your non integrated pain body. At times the situation can seem hopeless, so what can we do?
Eckhart Tolle and Oprah are doing a wonderful service to the world and anyone who puts into practice what is being taught. However, there are many powerful methods developed in recent years that can bring a more precise understanding to this practice. Instead of waiting for your pain body to arise and trying to become conscious, you can become proactive by methodically seeking, finding and integrating your pain body. These proactive processes are both scientific and proven to work.
Practical Considerations
A passive approach to pain body integration is a less effective approach for a few reasons.
First, effective integration requires us to develop awareness which includes the ability to direct our attention. If we are in a situation that requires our attention to be on something else, say work or driving, we have little attention left with witch to become aware enough to gain the needed objectivity to observe and allow the negativity.
Second, when we are relaxed and there are not many demands on us, this is the time our pain body is usually dormant because it is not being triggered. This leaves us in a situation where we have no opportunity to move forward in our practice.
Third, many times we are triggered in social situations in which it would be almost impossible to turn our attention inward and focus on our emotional reaction without attracting embarrassing attention. Another catch 22.
Proactive Integration of the Pain Body
Down through the ages, monks and mystics have had to withdraw from society to spend countless hours in contemplation and meditation in order to get results. This is no longer necessary. You can begin a proactive integration practice that produces rapid results today. You don't need to wait for your pain body to arise in the exact right situation and you don't need to meditate for 20 years to get results.
There are many roads you can take. The field of Energy Psychology has a lot to offer. There are quasi spiritual teachers that teach lots of methods that can help. However, we recommend that you learn the art and science of proactive integration of your pain body. This way you can have all the tools and skills you need to develop your own personalized practice. You are the expert concerning your own subconscious pain.
Don't wait any longer for your pain to be resolved. Take a proactive stance today and begin the incredible journey toward Wholeness. One on one sessions and lessons are available in the sight navigation.

First of all you should know "Pain Body" is A term coined by Eckhart Tolle. Pain Body is a generic term for the part of us that is hidden from our normal consciousness and that causes pain or suffering. In Eckhart Tolle's model there are two basic parts to the pain body. The personal part which consists of repressed painful experiences and the collective part which is the pain and suffering that resides within the collective unconscious of the entire human race.
There are many other models and descriptions that describe this repressed and painful part of your heart & mind. What most of us need to be concerned with is our own personal pain body. Learning how and why you have this hidden aspect of yourself can help you eliminate confusion which can hamper your spiritual growth, personal development or integration.
So what is your pain body more precisely? It's you. It's parts of you that you left behind. It is every painful experience that you were unable to metabolize. Every time you were overwhelmed. Each and every time you suppressed or dissociated something so painful you could not bear to experience it at the time it happened. You could describe this part of you as being emotionally or energetically "wounded" or traumatized. These traumatized parts of you can become triggered by anything they have associated as threatening. This is what produces inappropriate and reactive or defensive feelings or behavior. This hidden part of our composite nature is the root of all types of suffering we experience.
In conclusion, we can see that the term "pain body" is a generic or blanket term that gives a name to a part of human existence that is difficult at best to describe. It can be very helpful for us to come to an understanding of the various ways our repressed pain manifests. Learning about your own system of hidden woundedness and pain body is an art and a science. Taking small steps on a regular basis will bring great rewards.

Over the years as I've studied different forms of human change science, transformation or emotional clearing work, I've noticed a tendency. A lot of these modalities focus only on a part of what we really are. They lack an integral or integrated approach.
