How Eram Finally Got Rid of Her Migraines

I love seeing how people achieve what they thought was impossible, like getting rid of your migraines forever and never having to rely on pills ever again.

I am especially grateful to Eram who shares her story with you below.

ooo000ooo

I had suffered from migraines since childhood, until only few weeks ago. Migraines were like a part of life, a very strong reality for me that I thought I just have to live with all my life. As a kid I used to really get scared when I had to go to a party because it always ended with a strong headache and nausea for me. This was really tough because I always looked forward to any family gatherings but I associated any gathering of people, with bad headaches. Perfumes have been a major trigger of migraine for me which obviously used to be in abundance in any gathering.

My migraines got really worse during teenage. I had to skip school for 2 to 3 days almost every 3 or 4 weeks. That is when my parents started to take me to doctors and we got to know that I have complex migraines. The doctors gave me a lot of pills which lessened the occurrence of migraines but once it attacked it used to last for 2 to 3 days.

As I grew up more triggers came into play. Boredom and stress being the major ones. I used to get really exhausted with boredom and stress and then I would have a migraine. I have been to a lot of different doctors and have taken a zillion pills, some of which had really bad reactions but nothing got rid of the migraines.

During the last four or five years my migraines became worse as my ability to cope with stress lessened. I used to get a headache on a slight hint of tension. This is when I stopped any treatment and started taking pain killers only. However, I got too desperate to get rid of my stress and looked for ways other than medicines.

This is when I came across the Natural migraine relief website. I signed up for the top 10 tips and amazingly they worked. I started making notes of my feelings, conditions and triggers of migraines. I could figure out more triggers and could avoid them. Increasing my water intake really helped and so did yoga and specially the hand mudras. I actually learned more about hand mudras and now use many mudras regularly for various benefits. The blogs also helped. I started using the ice therapy mentioned in one of the blogs and it so quickly vaporized the migraine. I also became aware of my sleeping habits and started taking proper naps. This not only reduced the occurrence of migraine attacks but also made me less stressful and less anxious.

Then I read the book Living Deliberately (which you get once you sign up for Sile’s top tips) and after being inspired by Sile who is an Avatar master, I went for the Avatar training course.

This is what really transformed my life and helped me in actually getting rid of the migraines. I now have only minor headaches that I can get rid of through Avatar tools but I haven’t had a migraine since the course.

Avatar is truly the most powerful self development course. It surely is a guide to one’s own self. I had a chance to journey through my self and see what troubles me, what causes stress and how easily I can choose not to be stressed.

During this 9-day course I had a chance to look at my beliefs that I had constructed. These beliefs were just there operating my life and causing stress and anxiety in my experiences. The Avatar tools helped me to free my attention and once I realized what believes I was operating with, I began to change them.

The tools made it so easy. I learned how I could dis-create my stress, my fears, my judgments of others and myself, my fixed attentions, my lost concentration, every negativity that was stopping me from loving and experiencing and eventually my migraines.

Even the frequency and intensity of the minor headaches that I am left with is decreasing. Being migraine-free is a huge blessing. Also being medicine-free is a huge blessing.

Love
