Health - I think I figured something out.

My back has been hurting for the last few years. Its bad enough that I no longer sleep in my bed because the bed makes it worse. The hard floor feels better.

The location is just above my hip on the left side. The back bulges a little bit there. I've been doing stretches, twisting and turning, trying to get everything to go back to how it's supposed to be. The time spent stretching is like meditation - I focus on that spot.

So I had a new idea/theory... Maybe my back is messed up because my hip is turned. Idk why it would be turned, and I'm not even sure it can be turned in the way I envision it. But if the left side of the hip were stuck in a backwards tilt, it could cause the muscles and ligaments in my back to bulge that way. So now I'm focusing on trying to tilt the hip bone forward and keep it that way. I started putting a hard ball under the top of the hip, and holding it there for as long as I can stand it. It feels good, until it doesn't.

I think it's working. Back is already less warped, and it's only been one day. Now I need to think about what/how to strengthen to prevent it from happening again.
