The Discharge of Physical Discomfort
There is another kind of stored-up tension which discharges, too, but in a somewhat different manner. The tensions of physical discomfort—in other words, ill health, pain, muscle strain, hormone imbalance, anesthesia, unconsciousness, and so on—are usually found surrounded by painful emotion and act as a kind of core or foundation for the emotional distresses.
When the painful emotion discharges . . . have been completed, then these root tensions of the physical discomfort kind will be available to discharge.
