- Process of concealing or offsetting a psychological difficulty by developing in another direction
Self-Reflections
"Compensation" came to to focus for myself as a Question:
How am I accepting and allowing myself to Live the Word Compensation?
I noticed some correlation between my psychological/mental conditioning and my physical condition.
Specifically with a knee injury. This isn't a new injury. A sort of old injury that has resurfaced multiple times. The Questioning arising in myself:
Has this "injury" persisted in a minor way as a result of myself being highly effective with "compensating" for the ailment...misalignment withing my body?
Have I been postponing my best development as a result of "compensating" for my accepted and allowed physical body conditioning?
Have I been hiding from myself within mind/body here as a result of being highly effective with "compensation".
Why have I given so much attention to "compensation"?
"Compensation" has been a defense/offense system within my mind to make sure I keep on existing the way I am. It's a point of "change resistance".....trying to avoid/stop Loss. Attempting to mitigate and circumvent consequence for my Best Benefit according to the conditioning of my current mind set.
Further Self-Reflections
It's interesting with regards to the specifics of my knees and how I've gone about "taking care" of myself.
I am at a point where I am reevaluating the best ways forward.
Surgery, Stem Cell Injections, Fine-Tuning Diet and Specific Exercises
Following up with Professionals.
I've also been confronted with this decision in my life very recently.
I have a dislocating shoulder injury that has worsened over the years, which started from when I was 14 years of age. Now being 32, the injuries sustained due to the dislocations throughout the years has called for an operation. Initially testing out various other ways to develop more muscle strength and overall body support for the shoulder, where I could use bodily compensation practically and with awareness through building specific muscle groups in and by the shoulder as well as throughout the body to through this network establish sufficient network support. However, the injuries were too extensive and consequential.
Fortunately, I have the opportunity to do a Stem Cell operation which I will share in my posts and travel blogs :) Herein focusing on the methods available to initiative the natural healing ability within the physical body. Furthermore, I am also doing research from my life experience into what within our mind, being and body, as well as environmental, relationship throughout generations and my own life has contributed to the suppression of the this natural healing ability.
Much research to come and looking forward to walking this experience to get to see what's what with my own eyes (within and without) lol Thanks for sharing your insights into compensation, a very interesting read.

I look forward to more investigations on the stem cell research. It is indeed a fascinating area of study.
Mesenchymal cells are indeed extraordinary :)
Best regards always :)

cool @rebeccabe
I look forward to tuning into your post...if possible shoot me a link the moment it comes off your printing press - so i make sure to check it out!
I'm mostly ok. not much pain at the moment - just the outflow of my initial decisions. I ruptured my acl almost 2 years ago - and i challenged myself to see what i could do to allow myself to heal quite naturally. And quite effective to an extent thus far....after i got the results of my mri - based on stress tests the doctor did - he suggested i could go either way...and that it wouldnt be detrimental to wait on surgery and to further keep doing what i've been doing and test it further within high intensity sports which i enjoy.
And so here I am now - and I'm at a point of questioning and coming back to the initial procedures...as i've faced some moments of instability within high intensity sport.
Iniitally i didn't want to go for a surgery right away because that would mean i would be sidelined for an extended amount of time.
though - I am coming back to that point in question now - as I've recognized i've been holding back a bit within such activities as a result of having some instability there....and i am thinking long term as how I am not interested in compensating for an instability. Also - when i had the mri done it was also noted how my other leg/knee/ligament area was a bit hyper extended....and so now I am looking at how to best align my physical body where I am not juggelling my balance so to speak - as it's been a point I didn't realize how exstensively I was alllowing myself to cope with points of instability in the body
it's been a process for sure

I can understand your reluctance to immediately go into surgery. There's this feeling that the body has been designed to heal and surgical intervention might have irreversible consequences. Also, once you've done the surgery, that option is not longer on the table and you'd have to seek out more alternative solutions like stem-cell, if the surgery didn't work.
Psychological Compensation is almost like a form of denial. Focusing on other things to get your mind off making an immediate decision. I can sympathize with this. It's easy to pretend things are fine, or not so bad, and miss the opportunity to fix things earlier when perhaps it would be most effective.
Whatever decision you make, I pray that you are completely healed, so you may continue in your pursuits.
