Caught in the Tsubo Trap
When a Bladder Fights Back~Random Life Absurdities~
I was working on a client doing reflexology, and on both feet, the same spot kept indicating a blocked energy point. But for some reason, I couldn’t move from that area. It felt like there was just so much to do, like it was never meant to be over. I kept trying to drift away, but the energy wouldn’t let me. Eventually, I gave up and stayed there for as long as it took—it was the most stubborn blockage I’d ever encountered. Weird.
When I told the client where the energy was most blocked—her bladder—she started laughing. Makes sense, she said. She had been at a weekend retreat and tried doing a seven-hour meditation… but failed miserably because she had to pee so badly. She joked that if she had known, she would’ve worn a diaper.
Meanwhile, all I could think about was how pissed her organs must have been at her, how much they hated the whole experience! I’m sure they were bitching the entire time I was trying to heal the area, and it was probably pulling me back into that stubborn spot for one more “bitch session.”
And that’s not even the half of it—let me tell you what else she did,
And then….
And then….
And then…. Like, Austin Powers!
which explains why I couldn’t get out of that endless tsubo point…
They completely hated her!
All I had to do? Tell her: don’t hold your bladder. Your organs will thank you later.
