Many of us experience various ailments throughout our life. Generally, when we have something that is hurting or bothering us physically, we rush to go see a healthcare practitioner who specializes in treating that ailment. The doctor or specialist reviews our symptoms and makes a best guess assumption (based on their expertise) as to what is causing our discomfort. A treatment plan is devised, which may include surgery, medication, or some other hopeful cure. Usually the prescribed treatments help alleviate our symptoms. Other times the treatments have very little impact on our body, and we continue with our ailment. On rare occasions, the treatment harms our body even more causing us to have additional ailments, such as an allergic reaction.
What often goes unrecognized by specialists, is that the ailment is triggered by something deeper. The imbalance of mind, body, and soul. An imbalance of energies has occurred. Emotions are thought to be energy in motion, and these energies sometimes get out of balance. When our emotions are running wild within us, our energetic state is in chaos. We are very much out of balance. Treatment plans should focus on bringing all of our main factors (mind, body, and soul) back into alignment and balance. For example, people who have neck, shoulder, and back pain often experience these ailments due to the “load” that they must carry each day. Perhaps they are carrying a heavy load of stress, responsibilities, and internal baggage. When these people are freed from their stressors, and their responsibilities are lessened, the ailments that they were experiencing tend to improve on their own.
When others are telling us about their ailments, we may need to think slightly different about the causes of those ailments. They may not necessarily be due to a malfunction of the body. The body itself may be manifesting the ailment, which is actually triggered by an imbalance within. Someone may suffer from throat or sinus problems because they have a difficult time expressing themselves. Perhaps they are holding in their emotions, thoughts, and ideas which manifests as an ailment in the throat area. These people need to be heard. They need the confidence or reassurance to speak their truth.
Stomach issues can be due to things the soul is having a challenging time accepting. Many heart issues are due to deep emotional voids, such as feeling unloved, neglected, or lonely. When someone is filled with unwavering love, their heart issues may improve. An abundance of love, companionship, humor, and minimal stress all help alleviate many of our mainstream ailments. Doctors and specialists do not prescribe these things to help cure us. Pharmaceutical companies cannot package nor bottle these known treatments. Good health comes from loving ourselves as well as others. Having solid connections with others, where the person knows they have many people who “have their back” no matter what. This is worth gold in terms of longevity and health. Laughter has been scientifically shown to improve the natural state of the physical body. Deep breathing is known to help heal our inner and physical self. Even the simple act of smiling, triggers positive and healthy chemical reactions within us. Reducing stressors is yet another technique that helps the body naturally heal. We need to do better in helping others with their lengthy to-do lists and other stress inducing factors.
Ultimately, we are in charge of our own self. We must take responsibility to minimize or eliminate stressors from our life. We need to engage more with others, and this is especially true when love and laughter are to be shared during those engagements. Elevate positive states within yourself through movement, such as exercise. Seek humor and laughter. Find humor in any situation that you can. Basically, our task is evaluating ailments to reduce the negative factors that are acting as triggers for imbalances within the mind, body, and soul. One way to do this is to evaluate our emotional energies. We need to work to bring ourselves back into flow and balance. Once we are aligned internally and energetically, then any remaining physical ailments can be addressed accordingly.
