Common Diseases, Thoughts, and How to Heal Them

Are our thoughts linked in any way to our physical body? Can habitual thought patterns make our health better or worse? I recently saw the documentary HEAL, in which scientists and spiritual teachers discuss how the mind, beliefs and emotions impact our health. Some diseases have “no known cause”, such as Parkinson’s, Fibromyalgia, Neuropathy, and Chronic Fatigue. I wonder where do they come from? What thought patterns are linked to them? If we can change the thoughts at their root, can we heal the disease?

Louise Hays left us a legacy of tools to heal ourselves. One of my favorites is what she calls “The List”. Through her mindful techniques and positive affirmations, millions have learned to create more wellness in their bodies, minds, and spirits. Louise authored over 20 books and founded Hay House in 1984 to publish her first two books, Heal Your Body and You Can Heal Your Life, both of which became international bestsellers. In fact, You Can Heal Your Life has sold more than 35 million copies worldwide and established Louise as a leader in the transformational movement. Louise was able to put her powerful words into practice when she was diagnosed with cancer. She considered the alternatives to surgery and drugs, and instead developed an intensive program of affirmations, visualization, nutritional cleansing, and psychotherapy. Within six months, she was completely healed of cancer. Below is “The List” as Louise referred to it, diseases A-Z, their common embedded emotions, and the new thoughts to heal them.

Oh, I’m not saying that disease is CAUSED by thoughts or emotions. I AM saying that our habitual thoughts may contribute to our illnesses, hiding near the root. And when we change our thoughts, the disease often becomes a thing of the past. Louise transitioned on August 30, 2017. Hope this list is useful.

Self righteous persona hides their self wrongness persona. Fear in not believing in what you do and say.

Now, how do we understand the emotional component to teeth? Well, a great place to start is by first understanding the relationship between emotions and organs. This organ-emotion system is analogous to the circuitry in your house. The electric panel will supply energy to each part of your house along a particular path (i.e. circuit). Now, if a circuit breaks in your house,
everything on that circuit goes out as well. This is similar to what happens when a tooth site is traumatized by decay, abscess, or gangrenous tissue. The energy meridian (i.e. circuit) associated with the tooth site is disrupted and this disruption travels along the breadth of the meridian affecting everything along the way including organs. Even if a tooth has been removed there still may be an infection in the bone (i.e. cavitation) at that location that could cause the same disruption. It is also important to note that there is an area located behind the wisdom teeth called the ninth space. These areas are evolutionary remnants which were occupied by teeth at some point in our history. Some individuals may develop primordial cysts (i.e. an undeveloped tooth) in these areas. These cysts can disrupt the energy meridians located in the 1, 16, 17, and 32 tooth site.
Please feel free to use the interactive chart located at: http://www.holisticdentistillinois.com/for-patients/interactive-meridian-chart/ to learn more about each tooth’s relationship with the organ system.

Sleep apnea (disturbances of breathing while sleeping) can be attributed to disappointment, bitterness, unforgiveness and resentment of being overworked. There can be a sense of guilt about wanting to express these feelings but holding back so in effect the person is suffocating themselves.

Nutrition plays a large role in the healing process. Over a period of time our systems get clogged with junk and can use a good cleansing. What we do and do not put in our bodies in the way of food and beverages has a lot to do with the ability our bodies cells have to regenerate themselves. I suggest going to a good nutritionist for a supervised body cleansing and to find the best diet and nutritional plan for your particular body. Doing this is an act of love for yourself.

Wounds                 Anger & guilt at the self.         I forgive myself & I choose to love myself.

 

Wrists                     Represent movement             I handle all my experiences with wisdom,

and ease.                                     with love and with ease.

Yeast infections         Denying your own needs.     I now choose to support myself in loving, joyous ways.
