[75] Symptom: Do You Feel a Sharp Pain When You Sit Too Long?

Intuition Calling: An Insight for Healing

Hi, my name is Elise Lebeau, I’m the Left Brain Intuitive, and your intuition is calling. Let’s see what it has to say.

Today’s episode features an intuitive message for someone in the audience. Perhaps it’s someone you know, or maybe it’s for you. Listening to this message might even help you find clarity about your own life.

Intuition and Physical Pain: Understanding the Message from Your Body

Today’s message is for a woman experiencing significant pain when sitting for extended periods. The pain concentrates at the base of the spine in the coccyx area. It’s fine for a little while, but the longer you sit, the more it hurts.

I have an intuitive message for you because you’ve been trying to figure this out for a long time, and I feel that you’re stuck—this is when intuition is most helpful.

When we have a solution that can come from the logical mind, we use that. I’m sure you’ve tried all sorts of cushions, standing up after a while, seeing physical therapists, and getting massages. But when it doesn’t heal, we find ourselves stuck.

Finding Clarity: The Root Cause of Your Pain

Let’s seek clarity about the root cause of this problem. Clearly, it’s connected to sitting down for too long and the pain that follows. An easy solution might be to avoid sitting too long, but that doesn’t address the root cause.

There are deeper issues within you that you’re currently ignoring, perhaps because they’re inconvenient. Paying attention to them could create discomfort, even pain, because you feel stuck in that area too.

This is such a profound part of who you are that you’ve been ignoring it, and it’s only going to let you do that for so long.

Intuition’s Role: How Your Body Communicates

The pain you’re experiencing is a functional symptom.
PS: I talk about those in my 7 Day Intuition Bootcamp on symptoms that won’t heal.

This is your body’s way of expressing an intuitive message. If you were to resolve the root cause, which involves addressing this suppressed part of yourself, the pain would go away because it would have served its purpose.

It might sound a bit strange because our logical mind tends to think that if something is a certain way now, it will be that way forever. The fact that you develop pain at the base of your spine when you sit for a while seems permanent and unsolvable. But this is where intuition steps in.

Intuition and Your Body’s Memory: Accessing Deeper Knowledge

Intuition pulls from all the memories stored in your physical body. Your body is like a hard drive—it stores everything that has ever happened to you. However, it’s not stored in language and isn’t conscious. If it were, you’d be overwhelmed by the sheer amount of information, making it impossible to function.

Instead, nature, in its brilliance, ensures that all this information is recorded somewhere without impeding you. It’s a great system that works beautifully—until we get stuck. Then, we need to figure out how to access that information.

In your case, the information we’re seeking isn’t just in your physical body; it’s at a higher, soul level—a bigger part of you. This part isn’t tied to your human consciousness, but it’s calling you to be whole again, louder and louder.

The Escalating Symptom: Intuition’s Increasing Volume

This symptom will continue to escalate if the message isn’t delivered. Maybe in the beginning, you could sit for an hour and a half without a problem. But over time, that tolerance decreased, and now you might struggle to sit for 30 minutes.

This pattern shows that your intuition is using the symptom to communicate more urgently. We tend to think, “I just have to sit for five minutes and then get up.” But that’s not what you truly want to do.

The function of the symptom isn’t to tell you to stand up every five minutes—it’s to tell you that you need to be whole again. The part of you that you’re suppressing, perhaps because it’s inconvenient or uncomfortable, needs to come to the forefront. It’s been chained up in the basement, so to speak.

Rediscovering Your True Self: The Importance of Being Whole

This is the root cause of your functional symptom—the message it’s trying to deliver. As you listen, I wonder if you already know what part of you this is. Maybe you used to be an artist, drawing or painting, or playing an instrument, and that’s no longer part of your life.

Or maybe you used to have a lot of ideas for starting a business, different ventures you were passionate about. Whatever it was, and I can’t see what it is because it’s private to you, this part of you was brilliant, though perhaps not in a way that was obvious to others. It was a private brilliance.

You might have tried to turn your art or business ideas into something that could pay the bills, but when that didn’t work out, you set it aside. This was smart at the time—paying the bills was a priority.

But now, you’re in a different place. You have something that pays the bills, but there’s still something missing. There’s a hole because the need to pay the bills has been fulfilled, but the need to be your whole self has not.

Embracing Intuition: Allowing All Parts of You to Thrive

That’s why this pain is coming back now. You’ve had this pain at the base of your spine for quite some time, but it’s only now that you’re ready to hear what I have to say.

This is the interesting thing about intuition—it doesn’t show up until we’re ready to hear it. Intuition is designed to support, nurture, and help you thrive. If it constantly reminded you of things out of reach or irrelevant for another five years, it would make you feel bad and work against its purpose.

Intuition knows when you’re ready—when the pieces are starting to come together. That’s when it can bubble up this kind of information. Otherwise, it would do more harm than good. So, it waits quietly until you’re ready.

Now, you’re ready to hear this: Not every part of you is meant to serve others or pay the bills. Some parts of you exist simply because they are part of who you are, and they need to be expressed for you to feel balanced in your life.

Opening the Door: Letting Life Flow Again

This part of you that’s been pushed away is banging on the door, trying to get out. It’s likely something you’ve expressed before—a time when you were in tune with that part of yourself, but other priorities took precedence.

Now, the timing is right, but your logical mind might resist, thinking it’s not productive. Starting a business or returning to dance might seem impractical. But your intuition is telling you it is productive because it serves the purpose of making you whole. And no one else needs to know that—only you.

If you go back to dancing or being an artist, you don’t need to share it with others if you don’t want to. Being whole is an internal feeling that fulfills an internal purpose. That’s why I mentioned it’s a private sort of clarity.

The Natural Flow of Life: Growing Through Intuition

Nature is simple. When I look at people, I see their human layer, their soul layer, and the more fundamental units of life. These units, which appear as little dots in the image my brain gives me, only care about one thing—they want to grow.

All life wants to grow. Trees don’t decide to stop growing because they’re content where they are. They keep growing until they’ve fulfilled their purpose. But humans can get stuck, and when that happens, life and energy stop flowing. It feels good when that flow resumes.

My intuitive message for you is to consider opening the door to all that you are—including the parts of you that you’ve deemed unproductive. These parts, once allowed back into your life, will let life flow through you again, bringing relief.

Intuition and Healing: A Path to Relief and Clarity

That’s why, when someone has a big moment of clarity, they often cry first—because it’s relief. Then comes the clarity and inspiration.

By the time you realize this message is for you, I hope it has brought to light the part of you that wants to be expressed again, so you can be whole.

I’d love for you to start paying attention to how long you can sit without pain—just to prove to your logical mind that your intuition is providing you with valuable, actionable insight and that it’s worth listening to.

All right, that’s all I’m getting for you today. I hope this was helpful, and I’ll talk to you soon.
