More than a Feeling

This will be post #1 in my assessment of what’s been happening with cvd and what’s making everyone sick. There is so much to cover that I’m having to break it up into several post. First we have to understand the body systems in play and what our bodies are telling us. I’m kicking it off with one of the most ignored and misunderstood keys to our health - our feelings and emotions. Now before you roll your eyes stick with me on this one. I know I used to treat this topic like “whatever - new age hippie weirdos” but once I understood what power the emotions have over the body the doors blew wide open! Symptoms and illness that seem to have no cause suddenly made sense and the body’s messages were heard loud and clear! So let’s dig in!

We all know the effects that depression and heartache can have on the body. It’s we’ll know long term depression can cause weight gain, sleep disruption, headaches, heart effects, and much more. It is possible to die of a literal broken heart. No doubt you have seen or heard of long time married couples dying at close times - they literally cannot live without each other. The brain too can kill the body. We have worked with people that were so terrified of a certain disease, like cancer, their constant obsession with it caused their body to manifest it. What you focus on grows.
The body is wonderfully made and is always sending and receiving messages. Emotions are energy and chemical reactions in the body. Have you ever had a negative experience that triggered a physical symptom? Someone may lose their job and begin experiencing migraines or you may go through a divorce and develop acid reflux. This energy can also get trapped in the body and each organ and body system correlates to a specific emotion. Grief is often trapped in the lungs 🫁. People in mourning often describe feeling it’s hard to breathe after their loss. This is a time people often get sick with respiratory issues that can progress into pneumonia or just a cough that won’t go away. The body also has a memory. One brother came to us looking for the cause of his “June colds”. Every June he got sick and lasted almost the entire month. After some digging he revealed his first wife had died young after only a few years of marriage from cancer and he cared for until her death in June. He had tried to tell himself he was “over it” but his body clearly was not. We addressed the emotional root of his illness and he no longer experienced them. When someone experiences reoccurring illness around the same time or the anniversary of something it’s often the body reliving an event.

Another common body system to express our emotions is our back. People can go their whole life thinking they just have a “bad back” when the reality is their back is often expressing emotions. The most common is low back pain. Of course if you’ve had a back injury that is another matter. This is focusing on low back pain without an obvious cause. The low back expresses anxiety about lack of support, particularly lack of financial support. My husband was a young father of three with his first wife in the 80s. There was a recession happening and work was scarce (he was in construction trades). He worried constantly about being able to provide for his young family. One morning getting out of bed his low back just completely locked up, couldn’t even get to the bathroom on his own. He was a young, healthy man with no injuries. He was unable to work for weeks and no doctor or chiropractor was able to find anything wrong with him. One chiropractors only advice was for him to try not to be so stressed all the time. He spent several decades off and on with these episodes of back problems. He can now look back and see they were often connected to how their finances were at the time. Now he never has those back issues and doesn’t even think about his back anymore. The shoulders are another big emotional key. People will often start to experience should pain or even frozen shoulder seemingly out of nowhere. The should literally represents shouldering responsibility that is too much to bare. I experienced this for the first time caring for my dad up to his death. We were with him constantly for years and it was clear the end was near. We were exhausted and overwhelmed and didn’t want to face what was coming. That week out of nowhere my right shoulder began to ache and by that evening I could hardly move it. I could barely dress myself for days but I knew what it was and why it was happening. Within a few days of my dad’s passing I woke up one morning with no pain and could move it normally. I hadn’t done anything different but the circumstances were different, it was done. Shoulder surgeries are some of the most unsuccessful surgeries that I see. Surgeons are more than happy to perform them $$$ but often patients are no better or even worse after. Nothing was resolved and now the trauma of surgery has been added. You can’t operate on an emotion.

One of the most extreme emotional illness I dealt with was a young mother in a nearby congregation. She came to me for help with all over crippling body pain. She said her nerves felt like she was being electrically shocked all the time. She had been dealing with this for years and it was making her life miserable. She had been to countless doctors and specialist. They ran every test possible and just came up “inconclusive“ and no actual diagnosis. This left her on high pain meds, bloated, using a walker, and having to wear large Velcro mens shoes so nothing would touch her body. We did the scan with my machine to determine the cause of her pain. I was surprised to see her results were all emotional and heavily rooted with mother pain. I asked her “did something happen to your mother?” Ummm yeah. She broke down shaking and told me eight years before on the night her and her fiancé got engaged they went to dinner with her parents. As they were driving to the restaurant they got in a horrible car accident. She held her mothers hand as she died. Her father, in shock and grief, blamed her because she picked the restaurant. Her constant pain was her body reacting to the belief that she didn’t deserve to be alive and that she had caused her mothers death. The doctors couldn’t find a cause because they were literally chasing a “ghost”. We addressed her grief and the pain stopped within days.
That is some of the ways emotions affect our physical health. My next post I will cover how to read your body’s messages. BTW I’m building to what I think cvd is - this is just one piece.

Thank you for sharing this first segment of your insights. It is very intriguing and really resonates with some of the research I've been doing as well. Have you ever heard of Eileen Day McKusick? She is a researcher and founder of biofield tuning. Many of the things that you presented here I have also heard from her interviews and instructional videos.

I totally agree that we can manifest our own illness. I tell my wife this all the time. I was just talking to a friend about this last night actually. I truly believe this is why they push cancer screenings so hard. And I know I'm jumping the gun on this but this is why they are pushing the PCR covid test as well.

And it's not only our health that we can make manifest...It's literally anything that we focus our mental, emotional energies on. This is why the enemy wants us focused on their goals, even if it's in a negative connotation because we're still focusing on their goals and helping them to achieve it by giving it our mental Energies.

Thanks for.the post. Great examples! It really got me thinking about the true origins of my own aches and pains along with others around me.

EFT has been my go to solution after discovering it in 2005. Helped me get through my transition from PIMI to PIMO along with prayer. Haven't practiced it in many years now though, the EFT I mean LOL.

EFT is a powerful technique! Love it and use it often! Only gap with clients is they approach it with too much doubt. It seems too simple to actually work so they dismiss it. Ultimately people want someone else to “fix” them.

THANK YOU @Citrine for this. I am in agreement with you 100%. It sounds woowoo and silly to anyone who trusts mainstream (Western) medicine, but it's NOT. It's knowledge that has been suppressed (imagine that!). This is something I have researched over the last several years, and since I've become aware of how much emotions affect the body I have been carefully observing myself and those around me, and seeing a definite connection.

I have a couple of real life examples. A close relative of mine suffered from what most would call IBS. She had an unbearable stomach ache every time she ate. She was in constant pain. Blood in the stool frequently. Lots of blood. It was very concerning. Doctors were no help, only wanted to prescribe pills. Finally a natural doctor suggested an elimination diet to determine a food allergy, and gluten intolerance was suggested. She changed her diet and it temporarily eased. Until stressful events came up. The issue was back, despite any dietary changes.

Around this time I had discovered the Holistic Psychologist and some other rogue doctors and was learning about emotions, things I never understood before. As a child I was told emotions were bad. I was not allowed to feel or cry or express anything. So I never learned to deal with my emotions (and I'm highly sensitive). I shared this info with my relative, and she too dove into these "strange teachings" and started to become aware of her thoughts, her uncontrolled subconscious racing scenarios constantly controlling her brain. She would pause and notice these thoughts, feel how they affected her body. Her heart would race, she would get sweaty, shaky, short of breath. JUST from her thoughts. So she would regularly practice observing her thoughts and doing something daily called a "future self journal" (I was doing this daily also). It's a simple practice of writing down what shifts/improvements you would like to see in yourself, an affirmation, and gratitude. Here are the details of this Future Self Journal and how it works. It might sound silly, but this knowledge and practice was a major turning point for me and this relative.

After doing this for a few months, we both noticed we were no longer running on subconscious auto pilot. And guess what her health problem was gone. Gone. After decades. I had aches and pains, low back and shoulders that also disappeared. We both had flare ups of pain and symptoms when this trash with the GB pushing the jabs started. It was the stress taking over again. And guess what, since we were no longer on auto pilot, we both WOKE UP and saw this scam for what it is.

Just a side note that we observed. After every single convention or assembly everyone would get sick. Was it really from the germy hand rails? Or could it be that everyone was stressed and it resulted in the body having a physical reaction? I have many more examples, but I've rambled on enough.

Edit to add: @Medi-tator YES EFT! The Tapping Solution app. Looks absolutely ridiculous but I SWEAR it works. I used it to get my son on an airplane when he was having a panic attack.

You’re absolutely right about the push for cancer screenings! They’re always putting fear in people and there has to be a boogie man around every corner. Keep screening and eventually they’ll find “something”. Gotta keep the $$$ flowing. 😡

In uni I fell in love with a girl that didn't reciprocate. I ended up losing about 20 lbs. Nevermind the Atkins diet, it was a way better weight loss program...just saying...:)
The low back expresses anxiety about lack of support, particularly lack of financial support.
Fascinating! I was without work for about 1.5 years when I had a sciatica attack that was awesomely painful. Left me with a numb middle toe on the left foot too. I believe nerve damage was involved. It did get me to start a regular regime of back exercises though.

Interesting take on shoulder pain. I've never had it and have zero responsibility. :) No wife, no kids, don't care much about anything. I'm a drone at work and like it that way.

As they were driving to the restaurant they got in a horrible car accident. She held her mothers hand as she died. Her father, in shock and grief, blamed her because she picked the restaurant.
That is heart-breaking. I'm glad to hear you were able to help her.

Wonderful post and thanks so much Citrine.

“Awesomely painful“ that’s the best description! 😆 I’m stealing that - watch for it in a future post! 👍

First we have to understand the body systems in play and what our bodies are telling us.

What you focus on grows.
The body is wonderfully made and is always sending and receiving messages. Emotions are energy and chemical reactions in the body. Have you ever had a negative experience that triggered a physical symptom? Someone may lose their job and begin experiencing migraines or you may go through a divorce and develop acid reflux. This energy can also get trapped in the body and each organ and body system correlates to a specific emotion. Grief is often trapped in the lungs 🫁. People in mourning often describe feeling it’s hard to breathe after their loss. This is a time people often get sick with respiratory issues that can progress into pneumonia or just a cough that won’t go away. The body also has a memory. One brother came to us looking for the cause of his “June colds”. Every June he got sick and lasted almost the entire month.

Now he never has those back issues and doesn’t even think about his back anymore. The shoulders are another big emotional key. People will often start to experience should pain or even frozen shoulder seemingly out of nowhere. The should literally represents shouldering responsibility that is too much to bare. I experienced this for the first time caring for my dad up to his death. We were with him constantly for years and it was clear the end was near. We were exhausted and overwhelmed and didn’t want to face what was coming. That week out of nowhere my right shoulder began to ache and by that evening I could hardly move it. I could barely dress myself for days but I knew what it was and why it was happening. Within a few days of my dad’s passing I woke up one morning with no pain and could move it normally.

You can’t operate on an emotion.

Una de las enfermedades emocionales más extremas que me ocupé fue una madre joven en una congregación cercana. Se me acercó a pedir ayuda con el dolor del cuerpo lismo. Dijo que sus nervios se sentía como si estuviera siendo conmocionada desde hace años. Había estado tratando con esto esto y no se le había hecho que su vida fuera miserable. Había sido para innumerables médicos y especialista. Se habían hecho todo el diagnóstico.

Su padre, en shock y dolor, la culpó porque eligió el restaurante. Su dolor constante fue su cuerpo reaccionando a la creencia de que no merecía estar viva y que había causado la muerte de sus madres. Los médicos podían encontrar una causa porque estaban literalmente persiguiendo a un fantasma.
Esa es una de las formas en que las emociones afectan a nuestra salud física. Mi próximo post cubriré cómo leer sus mensajes de cuerpo. BTW Im construyendo lo que creo que es - esto es sólo una pieza.
The word emotion derives from the word movement,emotio in Latin,etymologically speaking. Thus,in the same way that an emotion (internal impulse) moves us to act in a certain way,our movements also affect our emotions. Example: the distressed person or the one who hides some shame,carries his shoulders forward and sinks his chest,hiding what is happening to him, while the proud person does the opposite. Hence,the first thing that is advised to someone whit these characteristics is: BREATHE. By doing so,it decompresses the chest and the muscles that surround it along with its fasciae,which makes it easier to unload through crying and talking,relieving pain and the individual begins to discard the energies that keep him in a state of negativity. Just an example.

The Tapping Solution? That is the company with the young brother/sister team who (or used to) do 3 day events with a ton of speakers and workshops? If that is them, they really know their stuff! I learned EFT from another source but subscribed for a while to The Tapping Solution folks, that is if I have that correct. Didn't know they had an app. Sounds interesting!

We did the scan with my machine to determine the cause of her pain. I was surprised to see her results were all emotional and heavily rooted with mother pain. I asked her “did something happen to your mother?” Ummm yeah. She broke down shaking and told me eight years before on the night her and her fiancé got engaged they went to dinner with her parents. As they were driving to the restaurant they got in a horrible car accident. She held her mothers hand as she died. Her father, in shock and grief, blamed her because she picked the restaurant. Her constant pain was her body reacting to the belief that she didn’t deserve to be alive and that she had caused her mothers death. The doctors couldn’t find a cause because they were literally chasing a “ghost”. We addressed her grief and the pain stopped within days.
That is some of the ways emotions affect our physical health. My next post I will cover how to read your body’s messages. BTW I’m building to what I think cvd is - this is just one piece.
In my life as a social worker, I came across what seemed like every ailment and concept of individual life experience that was possible. The cure is as you rightly conclude, enablement. I don’t know if you have read Damasio’s book, entitled “The Feeling of What Happens” but it sheds light on individual conceptual mental awareness (of “what happens” ) like no other work that I have read. It is akin in many respects to Transactional analysis but takes the human mind on a far deeper introspection of our conceptual understanding within our reasoning. It’s value is largely seen in the topics that you illustrate in reference to referred pain and responses. Ambidexterity - degrees of - is an engaging topic in this question, as are areas of interest in a savant. A professional level of empathy is a key factor in understanding perspectives of “what happens” for/within a given individual - the problem in that learning experience though, is insight. Wearing the shoes of another is fraught and littered with the burden of experience, matched in so many ways with the endurance of mental pain for the practitioner. One reason why the rate of suicide is high in the medical profession. There can be an awful price to pay in assuming advice for another. It is not a good example, because the academia required in mental reasoning is infinitely beyond their life experience, but for the sake of common understanding, the GB are excellent examples of the blind leading the blind in this regard, as the murdered souls of the abused children and wrecked families will attest to. Of interest, and in stark contrast, though spiritual, in this matter is the necessity of Christ‘s sacrifice, because it is the perfect example - in every detail - of assuming the part in depth of understanding of another and the degrees of insight, empathy and eloquence in explanation of such in reflection of human values to another in enabling them to progress. The truth of the matter is that the full extent of enablement in another is encapsulated by the word “Love” and the more that sobering thought is dwelt upon, the greater the truth of it is revealed in its intended expanse as described in so many ways by our Creator.

This article just dropped and reminds me of the hypothesis that you stated in thread. I think this backs up what you are proposing:

New JAMA study finds “psychological distress before SARS-CoV-2 infection, characterized by depression, anxiety, worry, perceived stress, and loneliness, are prospectively associated with increased risk of developing post–COVID-19 conditions (sometimes called long COVID)”

Related to the subject as well is something I saw last night. My wife and I were watching the National Geographic series called "Locked Up Abroad". This is a series where they recount the story of people who were imprisoned outside of their country usually for drug smuggling or other illegal activities and end up in very harsh prison conditions.

The subject last night was an Australian woman who ended up getting locked up in Peru for smuggling cocaine. The lead up to this tragic consequence though was quite interesting. She had lost her young son in death which was very emotionally tormenting for her, then shortly after she was raped. She decided that she had to get away from the situation so she ended up going to Mozambique to live for a Time.

While she was there she came down with bizarre physical symptoms that caused her to become weak and pass out numerous times. After going to the hospital to be treated the physician told her that she needed to get tested for HIV infection, which she did. And of course she tested positive. Interestingly, she kept repeating that before she got the test results she "just knew" that she was infected.

Many of us are aware that the fraudulent PCR test that is used to diagnose "Covid" infection is the same test that is used to diagnose so called HIV infection.

I couldn't help but think of your post as I was watching and I even commented to my wife that the woman's symptoms were not HIV but rather, due to the extreme emotionally stressful conditions that she was undergoing. My wife rolled her eyes of course.
