What's REALLY at the Root of Illness
It's common knowledge that stress causes most illness. Even Western medicine acknowledges that stress is at the root of most conditions today. The solution seems obvious - reduce your stress. But we all know that stress isn't going anywhere - we all have stress in our lives. There are many things you can do to help your body let go of the stress so it doesn't keep holding onto it. Exercise is a great way to let go of built up tension in the body. Meditation is a great way to calm the mind and let go of stressful thoughts.
Finding ways to manage your stress is one thing. But getting to the root of what's causing the stress is another. Most people think stressful situations are what's at the root of our stress - but it's not. What's at the root of our stress are the emotions we feel in the situation.
Negative emotions are the root of illness
Here's an example. Many people feel a tremendous amount of overwhelm during the holiday season. They worry about everything from the food to having to spend money on gifts to trying to make sure everyone gets along. All this overwhelm and worry can lead to anxiety. And all these negative emotions can lead to illness. How? Because we do our best to put on a happy face so we can get through the holidays with the least amount of conflict possible. That means we unconsciously stuff those emotions. But guess what? Those emotions don't go away - they become energy blockages in our body, which will eventually cause some sort of problem.
Here is an example of what can happen when a person continually represses their anxiety. That energy becomes stuck in the stomach area. Most people feel anxiety in their stomach - that's because our organs generate the emotions we feel. When anxiety becomes trapped, it can lead to imbalances in the stomach and stomach meridian, and this can lead to symptoms. Some of those symptoms could include stomach pain, acid reflux and other gastrointestinal issues.
This is just one example of how our emotions can affect us physically. There are so many other ways negative emotions affect our health, so finding ways to release those negative emotions can do wonders for your health. If you're not sure where to begin, give me a call. I can explain a simple process I use to release trapped emotions for clients. Not only can we release trapped emotions, we can identify and release the imbalances caused by those trapped emotions. By working on releasing all this trapped energy, your body is in a better position to begin healing itself.
