Understanding Emotions Which Cause Disease


The interconnection between unresolved emotions and disease is undeniable. Most people know that when they feel stressed, run-down, angry and resentful their bodies begin to break down. This is a way our bodies communicate with us, telling us to stop pushing away our emotions and start dealing with them.

Best-selling author, Dr Bernie Siegel says, “If we do not pay attention to our feelings and the messages from our body then our body will assume we do not enjoy life and get us out of here as quickly as possible.”

He advises, “to stop living your untrue self’s life, which others imposed upon you, and to eliminate not yourself but what is killing you. Thus, by paying attention to the messages from within your body, saving your life.”

If we want to have any chance of living happy, healthy lives we can no longer afford to lie to ourselves and to suppress our emotions. However, to deal with our feelings we must first understand what they are and how we created them.


Many people suppress their emotions unconsciously as a protective mechanism because on some level they feel that they cannot handle the pain and intensity of feelings they are experiencing. They may also not know how to let go of destructive emotions.

As a Visionary Intuitive Healer, I have found in my own experience of healing my back pain and with my clients that emotions do not disappear simply because we don’t feel them or we suppress them. In fact, emotions often stay in the body until they are recognized and let go of. If this does not happen, dense and heavy emotions can contribute to disease, dysfunction, and limitation.

I have worked with many people who have discovered stagnant emotions from thirty, forty and fifty years or longer, which have caused them struggle, unhappiness and ill health.

Lauren was 65 when she came to see me. She had experienced depression since she was ten years old, because of the load of responsibilities she had carried. She felt that to be accepted she had to please everyone. Lauren did not know how to say no. After recognizing this, she regularly began to release dense and negative emotions.

Within a short time, Lauren was almost unrecognizable. She stood tall, felt empowered, spoke and felt like what she had to say mattered, began to say no to others where appropriate, yes to herself, and most of all enjoyed being Lauren.

Following Lauren’s dramatic transformation, people began to comment to her on how good she looked, how happy she was, how much they enjoyed spending time with her. She began to work with younger people, inspiring them to do their best. Lauren connected to her authentic self, which had no limitations about what she could do or be.

Another client, Tess, had for years suffered from frequent headaches. When she was younger her mother was very judgmental and Tess learned to be self-critical, insecure and controlling. When Tess recognized those qualities in herself she began to use emotional techniques I teach to release them. Within a few weeks, her headaches had gone. Tess worked on many aspects of herself in order to feel more emotionally balanced. In fact, she also taught her young children to express their emotions in a healing way. The processes helped her son’s eczema to clear and her daughter’s asthma to completely disappear.

I believe you have the capacity to experience peace, clarity, and joy if you are given the tools. Changing your life has a tremendous impact on your family, friends and with all those, you come into contact.

UNDERSTANDING EMOTIONS

RESENTMENT

Resentment is deep hurt that is suppressed and unexpressed, which becomes anger. Often resentment is directed toward a family member or someone close to you. Resentment frequently comes about when you feel that you have been treated unfairly or taken advantage of.

Long term resentment can lead to tumors, syphilis, osteoporosis, lupus, back pain, etc

STUCKNESS

Many problems in your body and life occur when you are feeling stuck, inflexible and attached to one point of view. This often takes place when the same thoughts or scenarios play themselves over and over in your mind.

Long-term stuckness or stiffness can lead to varicose veins, sciatica, RSI, rheumatoid arthritis, paralysis, obesity, mouth ulcers, kidney problems and a host of other diseases.

GUILT

The whole justice system is based on the guilty and the innocent. We all know that guilt has strong consequences. Consciously or subconsciously guilt is associated with punishment, jail and a need to serve a sentence.

Guilt also requires judgment, which can lead to shame and embarrassment. Guilt and shame eat away at the body because many people believe that they need to hold on to their guilt in order to be punished. This belief is a form of self-sabotage.

Guilt is associated with hip problems, migraines, weight issues, venereal disease, osteoporosis, Parkinson’s Disease, insomnia, sinusitis, impotence, hernia and heart disease.

UNWORTHY / LOW SELF ESTEEM

Feeling worthless can create depression and fatigue, because of your belief that you can not do anything of value. This often creates severe self-criticism and judgment.

When we carry low self-esteem and unworthiness the body tends to break down, which can lead to acne, weight problems, diabetes, genital herpes, ovarian cancer, scleroderma, ulcers, warts, and memory loss.

REJECTION

Rejection is an emotion that can stay with a person for many years and cause detriment to their relationships and wellbeing. Often, people take rejection personally, thinking that they are not good enough or that there is something wrong with them. So instead of going forward and changing, they give up, close down and feel sorry for themselves.

Feelings of rejection contribute to many diseases and dysfunction such as; anorexia, arthritis, multiple sclerosis, endometriosis, paralysis, numbness, cold sores, and frigidity. It can also create breakdown, stress, nervous anxiety and tension.

These are just some of the challenging emotions we need to deal with. In my book The Secret Language of Your Body, I explain about many more dense emotions and teach you how to release them. Below is a general process you can begin to use to clear negative or destructive emotions.

PROCESS

Place your hands on the part of the body where you feel the feeling most intensely. Breathe into that area for a few moments, and allow any emotion to rise to the surface with little resistance. Then relax your hands.

Divine Healing Intelligence, using the orange-red flame of purification please dissolve all destructive, limiting, stagnant,________________ (put in the emotion you are working with.) emotions from my cellular memories, mind and energy field. Help me to release limited points of view and let go of all hardness in my mind and emotions.

Work with me to release patterns of strain, struggle, effort and resistance. Please melt away all blockages in my mind, body and emotions which obstruct my flow of energy and circulation. Thank you.

Observe the orange-red flame move through your body, mind, emotions and energy field and begin to dissolve all negative thoughts, words, feelings, memories and images associated with a particular person, place or experience that has bound you.

The Morning Mindfulness 2

     When attempting to change or remove programs or behaviors that no longer serve us (or never did) there is one element that must be attained: awareness; and there are two elements that must be reinforced daily: persistence and consistency.  Think about it, some of these programs have been operating within our life since the age of five or seven and are still being played out today.      For example, I have a friend that grew up impoverished and food wasn't always available, but when it was, he would eat until he felt sick because the next meal was unforeseeable. This programming continued into his teenage and adult years causing a life-threatening onset of obesity.  When the awareness arrived as to why he felt as if he must always overeat and that the circumstance(s) in life that brought about that programming were no longer relevant, he was able to make the proper adjustments to remove that program from their life.      Bec...

The Journey is the Destination

Ruba and I started a journey roughly four months ago, bringing only what we could fit in our 2017 Civic.  Reducing two lives into a Civic isn't the easiest task, but when adventure calls...you answer.  What we're doing will be shared in future blogs, but before we go any further, allow me to introduce myself.  My name is Nick Nelson and I am a seeker of knowledge.  I believe knowledge is what separates or compartmentalizes us within Time. For example, a child is a child and an adult is an adult due to knowledge.  The more knowledge one retains, the greater their responsibility in this place.  I am one that believes the greatest responsibility is one's self, therefore knowledge of the self is of great importance in this place.  As this journey unfolds, so will I.        Bob Wentz Park - Austin, Texas                     

It can get worse. It can get better.

A good friend of mine reached out to me with the following: "My favorite massage teacher in the whole world used to say, "If it can get worse, it can get better." and I want to hear your story about that." This is where my understanding is at the moment: How we see a situation is based on our judgment of it. And, whether we know it or not, we’re always judging. Consequently, we give a situation a path to a certain outcome based on the energy we give it with our judgment. So, if we see a situation as bad, then we give it permission and momentum to develop in that direction. And if we see a situation as a doorway to better possibilities, then our thoughts direct creative energy to the situation; guiding it to evolve in the direction of our beliefs. Over the last few years a creed developed for me that still stands unchallenged by my experiences. A set of three “rules”. The first two don’t pertain to the topic at hand, but the third is: ...

We're Doing It!

Waking up to a new reality. Waking up in Austin, Texas. It wasn’t an overnight whim nor was it entered into lightly or simply. It took courage, introspection and Soul growth. It took many smaller steps towards an uncertain vision that held the possibility of adventuring into new experiences. Trading fear of the unknown and the comforts of the familiar in exchange for the possibility of finding something new out there and, more importantly, something new within ourselves. I could not have fathomed this odyssey long enough for it to become my reality nor could I have taken the first steps that lead to it without Nick. He holds the space for my outward thoughts and my inward meditations. His stillness calms me and his companionship keeps me brave. He keeps vigil over me that I do not regress into the previous versions of me. It takes new thoughts to shift paradigms. It takes new thoughts to make new choices. Thoughts and choices alone don’t bring about change - taking action brin...

At the Age of 30...

On the beautiful afternoon of August 6, 1988 I,Nicholas Nelson, entered this physical realm of being.  After 30 years and a few months of Life experience, I feel as if I finally have the privilege to "talk some shit" or "speak some knowledge" about Life. If I could go back to 18, 21, hell even 24 year old Nick and sit him down to explain how little he knows about Life...what a conversation that would be.  He would fight me so hard with his 18,21, or 24 year old knowledge because he is so very sure "he knows".  Man, that dude didn't know shit.  Have you ever listened to someone speak and you knew damn well they had no clue what they were talking about?  That would be 30 year old Nick listening to 18-24 year old Nick talk about his knowledge of Life.  Of course he may have a general understanding of Life at those young ages but, the knowledge of the detailed intricacies of Life don't come until later on (hell they are still coming). At the ag...

12 Strands Of DNA - Our Spiritual Heritage

For years science has recognized that we have two active physical strands of DNA. We also have a further ten energetic DNA strands which have been dormant within the Human Being for many centuries. These dormant strands of DNA have been discovered by scientists, who not knowing the function of these strands, have identified them as ‘junk’ DNA. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a nucleic acid that contains all the genetic instructions used in the development and functioning of all known living things. The main role of DNA is the long-term storage of information. DNA is often compared to a set of blueprints since it contains the instructions needed to construct other components of cells. The DNA segments that carry genetic information are called genes, but other DNA sequences have structural purposes or are involved in regulating the use of genetic information. Our DNA is therefore our personal blueprint and as such holds all our mental, physical, emotional and Spiritual information. The or...

Akashic Records And Physical Healing

Sometimes people ask me whether energy clearing work in the Akashic Records can resolve physical illness and dis-ease. The short answer is "no." Our body is the densest aspect of ourselves. If our body is displaying pain and dis-ease, it's because of something we are doing, or not doing, that is blocking the flow of vital force energy to our physical aspect. But the problem is being created at the physical aspect of our experience. This means that we have to change what we are doing, at the physical level of our experience, in order the resolve the problem. Whether that's changing our posture or sleeping position because we have back pain, or getting out of a toxic relationship, or changing our diet ... we have to do something different. Energy clearing isn't going to change our physicality. Having said that ... the Akashic Records can contribute great understanding as to how we created illness and dis-ease in the first place. I had a client who was...
