From Back Pain to Mountain Clarity

I recently had a deeply healing session with Tammy Bell of The Healing Orchard, where she guided me through a remote Emotion and Body Code session via Zoom.

My intention was clear: to release some lower back pain that had been lingering in my body and to understand what energetic or emotional imprints might be connected to it.

What unfolded during our hour together was far more powerful than I expected. We actually uncovered ancestral baggage, energetic entities, and trapped emotional layers that I didn’t even realize I was carrying.

What Is Emotion and Body Code?

Developed by Dr. Bradley Nelson, The Emotion Code is a modality that helps identify and release trapped emotions, energetic residues from unresolved emotional experiences. The Body Code expands this work by addressing deeper layers of energetic imbalance, including structural misalignments, pathogens, energetic circuitry, and inherited patterns passed down through generations.

These imbalances are identified using muscle testing (applied kinesiology), and they can be cleared remotely. 

I came into the session focused on one clear issue: a nagging ache in my lower back. As a Reiki Master and energy practitioner myself, I know pain is often a messenger, an invitation to look beneath the surface. I was curious to see what Tammy would uncover.

She began tuning in immediately using muscle testing, and what came forward was both unexpected and illuminating: trapped emotions, inherited beliefs, and foreign energetic attachments; all lodged within the energetic field and, apparently, contributing to the pain in my back.

As Tammy worked, she was naming and clearing each trapped energy. With every release, I could feel physical shifts, like tingling, warmth, and subtle realignment. The energy work was profound, yet gentle. Some releases I felt immediately; others felt like waves of lightness rippling through my whole body.

The next day was the real test! I went on a nearly 5-hour hike in the mountains of Gilford, New Hampshire. It was a physically demanding trek, to say the least, something that would normally flare up my lower back. But to my amazement, I experienced zero pain in my back, I cannot say the same for my hips, legs and feet!!! 

This experience reminded me that pain isn’t just physical, it’s energetic, emotional, and ancestral. My back had been holding onto more than just muscle tension. It was holding patterns that weren’t even mine.

If you’ve been feeling stuck in your body or weighed down by something you can’t quite name, I highly recommend a session with Tammy. She’s incredibly intuitive, compassionate, and grounded in her approach.  

Finding Clarity

Healing doesn’t always come through effort, it often comes through release. Sometimes, the most powerful shifts happen when we allow energy to move in ways that words and willpower alone can’t reach. ✨
