Stop Tics For Adults Reprogramming Unconciousness Tourette’s, Vocal Tics, Motor Tics Follow-Along

Key Takeaways:

• Visualization reveals tics as exiled parts of self needing acceptance
• Listening to tics with compassion rather than resisting transforms them
• Self-compassion meditation can gradually reduce tic intensity

As someone who has struggled with debilitating motor tics for decades, I've tried just about every conventional treatment out there to no avail. Medications masked the symptoms but brought brutal side effects. Therapy helped me manage my feelings about the tics, but didn't stop them. I felt utterly powerless against the urges overtaking my body hundreds of times a day.

In desperation, I recently started experimenting with guided visualization and meditation specifically focused on connecting with the tics at their source. What I discovered astonished me.

Sitting still and tuning into my breath, I began asking inward questions like: "If this tic had a shape, what would it be?" "What color is it?" "If it had a voice, what would it say?" I let the answers flow intuitively. 

To my surprise, the tics revealed themselves to be ancient, scared parts of myself I had long repressed. For instance, the violent head jerking embodied a terrified 5-year-old version of me cowering during my parents' explosive fights. 

By visually personifying the tics in this way, I realized how they had become an imprinted outlet for decades-old trauma and fear. Each tic impulse was like a desperate cry for help from a wounded inner child.

Instead of resisting the tics, I started listening to them with compassion. I visualized bringing those vulnerable parts of myself into the embrace of my heart. I soothed their pain with love. I assured them they were safe now.

Gradually, as I cultivated this self-compassion through guided meditation, the intensity of the tics began subsiding. It was as if in being truly seen, heard, and accepted, those exiled parts of me no longer needed to rupture out so forcefully.

Healing this lifelong struggle required me to courageously face and make peace with my own pain. Visualization helped transform the tics from a source of shame into a call for tenderness. I now see each urge to tic as an opportunity to love myself more deeply.

While occasional tics still arise, they no longer control my life as they once did. By finally embracing all aspects of myself - even those I wanted to banish - I'm discovering an inner freedom I never dreamed possible.
