Understanding Illness In The Body

How Illness Manifests Our own thought patterns effect the health of our body. Each emotional thought pattern is really an underlying "cause" of a physical illness. Understanding the illness can help you address the cause and thereby riding the body of the disease. That doesn't mean that you can forgo mainstream medicine all together. Sometimes when you don't listen to the messages of your body; the issue progresses and requires medical attention. These metaphysical concepts can help you understand why the illness formed, and how you can include metaphysical practices to help support the medical treatment from your physician.   These thought patterns we set up within our consciousness find their control over our subconsciousness through a form of grief. Even if it seems to be a tiny issue, there is an element of loss and grief within the situation. By identifying what the grief component is, we can begin the process of healing from the loss and find a better way to think about who we are, our life and our place in the spiritual universe.   There are many books on the market that describe this system of belief and understanding, but for me, one of the best books on the market for healers is called "Heal Your Body" by Louise Hay, from Hay House Publishing. Ms. Hay has created one if not the definitive source for emotional causes, their corresponding illness and a metaphysical affirmation to help the individual deal with the originating cause.   The following is just a brief example of how the Usui systems describes this same concept.   The Chakra Centers & Energy Flow Each part of the body has a corresponding emotion that relates to the way you think, feel and react to situations. If you know the positive and negative aspects of these areas, you can direct healing energy to that section of the body that will need healing the most.   As a healer, you can assist your client in understanding the underlying cause of their illness and use healing energy to bring that issue to the surface. But the wonderful thing about spiritual healing is that the Divine already knows this to be the process. So even if you don't feel comfortable explaining your perceptions, then that's fine too. Just let the healing energy do what it needs to do, and if the Divine energy is coming to this person with the intent of raising issues, then that is between the client and his or her God.   You might also like to review our posting on the Chakra Centers to learn more about these energy vortices.
