IMMUNE HEALTH
In indigenous healing cultures, heart problems signal discontent and unhappiness. Discontent emerges when we make all of our decisions from a rational or logical place. Making decisions from our heads and not our hearts leads to disconnection. Each time we override what we feel in our hearts with logic and reason, our hearts shrink more.
Our bodies store away unexpressed grief and sadness in our lungs. Grief is persistent: Though we may not communicate it, it continues to exist, held in our bodies. Unprocessed familial grief does not disappear; it travels through the generations.
Having a general understanding of fundamental health concerns and knowing how to treat them is empowering. An impetus for my healing journey was understanding my body and knowing that I could heal myself, not turn my power over to a doctor to tell me what was happening in my body. It’s essential to know our own anatomy.
In Chinese medicine a large part of the immune system is our wei chi, the protective layer and energy force that guards our bodies. When your wei chi is healthy and nourished, you are impenetrable to viruses, pathogens, and other outside invaders, whether physical or spiritual.
Healing Our Relations
Nourishing Anger
Listening to Spirits
Following Your Gut
SKIN HEALTH
LIVER HEALTH
NERVOUS SYSTEMS
DIGESTIVE HEALTH
Our skin, the body’s largest organ, reflects our inner being. It is a revelation of the entire body’s health and our relationship to the world, our families, our communities, and ourselves. On our skin, the truth does not get hidden. Our vulnerability, rage, exhaustion, and emotional capacity to deal with issues all show up on our skin.
Anger is a catalyst to change. When nourished and directed, it motivates us to grow and create change for ourselves, our families, and our communities.
If our nervous system is not cared for and functioning correctly, we are not getting our messages from Spirit. We can receive messages in many forms, including through hearing, vision, colors, images, intuition, wind, physical changes in the body, symbology in the environment, synchronicities, dreams, and movement in the room. I have also heard that individuals feel Spirit when they are relaxed, have a clear mind, and feel connected and embodied, heightening their senses.
Our instinct, awareness, and innate intelligence lie in our gut. I have heard many say, “I knew it! My gut told me!” The question then is, why didn’t you listen? We are conditioned to listen to when our mind speaks, but what we feel is often considered secondary or ignored.
