#neck #back #pain
Today
1st Try. With a little padding on the floor, I'm trying legs straight out, knees raised up, lying on my side and on my stomach.
Pain Level 1-10. Level level is 8. 1/2 hour.
I managed to get up off the floor in the same way a little child gets up off a floor and walks.

PILLOWS

  • My Scottish Highlander ancestors were said to have slept on a rock for a pillow. I have a large granite rock, but I haven’t tried it out for a pillow yet. This type of hard pillow seems to have been typical in many ancient cultures, and there is record of them being used in places such as Egypt, China, and Mesopotamia.

  • The Stone of Jacob appears in the Book of Genesis as the stone used as a pillow by the Israelite patriarch Jacob at the place later called Bet-El. As Jacob had a vision in his sleep, he then consecrated the stone to God.

NECK AND LOWER BACK PAIN
I've been waking up with terrible pain in my neck, shoulder and lower back. I threw out my pillows and have been sleeping on a small, firm throw pillow. The pain has greatly decreased. Next. I have to buy a new mattress. Heat has also helped. A hot bath or shower, and a heating pad. Aspirin, Turmeric Curcumin and Ginger Tea have helped. The greatest help had been the red pillow so my neck is firmly supported.
