Releasing our Pain

Tuesday, May 25th, 2010

Did you know that emotional issues can cause physical pain? It is also referred to as cellular memory. When a traumatic event happens in your life the emotions from that experience gets locked in the cells of your body and causes dis-ease, illness, or a restriction. It may not present itself initially in your body, but over time it will show up. I’ve seen people who have taken on fear and anxiety from their mother while still in the womb, mothers who never released the pain from a miscarriage, and adults that still hold the trauma of physical abuse. How is this possible? Have you ever felt someone else’s pain? Tensed up from the sight of a child falling? Take that to the extreme. The emotions of a traumatic experience stay lodged in the body until we are willing or ready to release them. If you have an illness that just isn’t going away it may be an emotional blockage. My daughter’s molar had been causing her a tremendous amount of pain. I remembered that when she was ten the dentist was to replace the sealants and I was sent out of the room. There was a cavity and they never advised me that they would freeze her and fill the tooth. It was her first filling and traumatizing. That trauma was surfacing now, five years later. I walked her through a few steps to release the emotional pain and there was relief and surprise in her face afterward. If the emotions hadn’t been released she may have eventually endured a root cannel. Healing is powerful.

What is a Healing Crisis?

Tuesday, May 18th, 2010

A healing crisis doesn’t always happen after a treatment, but when it does some people confuse it and think the treatment has made them feel worse. Which is kind of true, but it’s a good thing. The majority of people start holistic healing as a last resort, although this has changed in recent years. Their body may be in a weakened state or they may be ill. Maybe they’re not sick, but something needs to change. Either way their body is working at less then an optimum state and toxins are trapped in their tissue. Circulation increases in the body when tissues and organs are worked on during a session. Because of this, toxins are released and enter the blood stream, then are eliminated by the liver, kidneys, bowel, and skin. What some would call a healing crisis are the physical symptoms of a runny nose, cold, diarrhea, stomach aches, aches and pains, headaches, or fatigue. These symptoms are actually part of your recovery as you enter a more deeply healed state. Please keep in mind that this is actually a good sign and indicates that healing is taking place. Once the toxins have released, the body adjusts and feels much better. When healing takes place your system will begin operating on a higher level of efficiency and you will have less ailments and more energy. Drinking water is the key to helping this process move along more quickly.
