Recent scientific studies have shown that emotions sabotage everything from simple success to kidney failure. Earlier emotional traumas like fear, anger, shame, guilt, doubt, and worry stop the normal flow of energy in the physical body due to memory that is not resolved. Limiting emotions undermine and, throughout life, causes unexplained and crippling diseases that end up controlling people.
Emotional Healing
The physical body falls apart because we fall apart emotionally. When we don’t care for the ‘whole self,’ the physical body mirrors those effects. Repressed anger diminishes the activities of the liver, and hopelessness and despair play havoc with the gallbladder. Long-standing negative thinking deteriorates the entire physical being. Mental patterns like worry or a constant string of looping thoughts in the mind weaken and exhaust the physical body. For proper and long-lasting healing to take effect, we must look at all the systems: emotional, mental, physical and spiritual.
Mental body– believes.
Emotional body–feels.
Physical body– experiences.
Spiritual body– heals.
Imagine how difficult it is when a cold and sore throat take over—do you feel like seeking out the emotional co-factors that caused it? Or constant fatigue? Probably not, who wants to search for the emotional disturbances crippling the physical body when your nose is running? Strengthen the physical body first with healthy nutrients that are easily digestible and assimilate well. I prefer liquid vitamin and mineral supplements rather than pill form. Green drinks are incredibly nourishing and healing to the body.
Wellness of the entire being through holistic health is a whole-body approach. Diet is the number one contributor to disease, and processed foods poison the digestive tract. A good mix of vegetables, proteins, carbohydrates and fruits is essential for healing the body. Eat organic food or foods grown in community gardens or the backyard if possible. Know where your fruits and vegetables come from. The longer the travel time to the stomach, the less nutrient content the fruit or vegetables have.
Pesticides and coloring additives can cause sinus problems, allergies, constipation, diarrhea, diverticulitis and even malnutrition. Acid reflux disease and heartburn are common symptoms of improper digestion, causing an irritant in the stomach and upper digestive tract. Candida, a friendly bacterium, often becomes a nuisance growing wildly and causing organs and systems to shut down. The most common foods that cause allergies are corn, wheat and dairy. Making simple changes means a lot to the body.
Healing
Supplements: We are a pill-popping society and proud of it. Supplementation is important because emotions, food chemicals and a hurried lifestyle affect our digestive systems, and we cannot assimilate foods properly. Although healthier than prescription medications, an overdose of natural supplements can also cause a list of new symptoms to occur. If you take more than five different supplements, you take too many.
Water: Only 5% of Americans get sufficient water daily. Diet drinks, high corn syrup drinks and coffee do not count towards proper hydration; many of those drinks cause gastrointestinal inflammation and kidney and liver problems. To properly hydrate, drink at least half of your body weight in purified water per ounce each day. For example, if you weigh 150 pounds, you’ll want to drink 75 ounces of purified water each day.
Exercise: Lack of exercise stagnates energy, and this causes the lymph system to back up, and congestion causes an array of problems. Walking around the block, yoga, and Chi-Gong are good exercise programs that help keep your body regular and happy.
Natural remedies, including diet changes, take a little longer to see results; however, the changes are more permanent, not just another band-aid for something else to pop up later. Turning disease around takes time and should include alternative healing, organic diets, pure water, natural supplements and exercise. Wellness of the whole body provides accurate good health for the entire being.
