Many of you are in a stage of looking for deeper
answers to your ailments and diseases. It can be very frustrating if certain
symptoms and ailments keep on surfacing, with a supplement here and there that just
isn’t doing the trick anymore. That is why I have decided to re-post “The link between
your emotions and disease” with slight modifications that I wrote about a year
ago.
Most of my blogs have been about food related illnesses and irritations, how
you can apply changes to your dietary lifestyle, and with hopeful improvement
on the horizon.
But the penny is dropping as God is taking us into a deeper revelation of how
He has put us together. It is not just about how food can affect our health. I did
an in-depth study on "Healing through sanctification of the heart" by
Dr. Michelle Strydom, and I’m still learning so much! I have definitely found
freedom in a few areas.
Disease, sickness and ailments can be rooted in fear, anxiety and stress, to
mention a few. We must be rooted and grounded in God's love for us.
Unfortunately, we are not born into a perfect world. As people go through
childhood, teenage years, young adulthood and progress through life, our
"hearts" get bumped, scratched and bruised, even frightened. People
go from one generation to the next, carrying the brokenness and heartache.
These are all captured in the brain, and are stored as memory. Good experiences
and memories can make you flourish, while bad experiences and memories can
cause a manifestation of many diseases and illnesses that can steal your joy.
This can make you a prisoner in your own body. It might have happened in
childhood, and only starts manifesting in adulthood.
Some people go through years of searching for answers to their symptoms. Your
answer can be an emotion or memory away.
God has created you so intricately. Your brain, emotions and experiences all
work together and can have an effect on the body. With your memory almost being
the beginning of your health, and having a ripple effect throughout the rest of
your body.
Chemicals and hormones are the driving force in your brain. These are
constantly being released, enabling different functions in your body. God has
made them to be perfectly in balance. But emotions through experiences and
circumstances can cause an overproduction or underproduction of these hormones
and chemicals, causing your body to be out of sync.
Unforgiveness, rage, rejection, resentment, anger, bitterness, control, fear,
anxiety and stress, rebellion, lies and deception, jealousy, loss, fear of
abandonment etc. are some of the things that can cause you to be sick with
physical and mental illness as a result.
There are many case studies out there where people with debilitating illnesses,
sickness and disease were healed as soon as healing was received on an
emotional level. The starting point is God. Through a process of repentance and
forgiveness, and releasing those situations and emotions back to God, they have
been freed from being a prisoner in their own bodies. Then inviting God into
that area of your life.
God does not want us to be heavy burdened for a reason. He does not want His
children to be sick!
The following are just some of the sicknesses and diseases that can be rooted
in brokenness, fear of abandonment, rejection, fear, anxiety, stress, strife
and anger:
- Asthma
- Fibromayalgia
- Osteoporosis
- Cancer
- Allergies
- Acne
- Diabetes
- High blood pressure
- Depression
- Heart disease
- Irritable bowel syndrome
- Weight gain or not being able to lose weight
- Thyroid problems
- Cysts
- Abscesses
These studies are based on research and
testimonies by medical doctor, Dr. Michelle Strydom, Dr. Caroline Leaf and
pastor Henry Wright. This gentleman wrote an amazing book called “A more
excellent way.” This evidence is also backed by years of emotional and inner healing
sessions and courses that I have been through.
Abandonment and fear can make you sick. Many
cases of asthma have been dealt with by addressing and healing the root
emotion. Were you or your own children taken to ICU and placed in an incubator
straight after birth? Were you left with a day mother/nursery at a very young
age? Or were you sent to boarding school at a young age? Many cases were done
where children developed asthma after going to boarding school. Forgiveness is
key. Remember, many parents didn’t have a choice at that stage. Did your father
maybe leave you and your mother? You may have "forgotten" or learnt
to cope in the situation, but the "file" with the emotion is still
stored in your body. Allergies can even develop as the body goes into a state
of stress.
A father/child relationship also plays a very
important role in many illnesses. Sicknesses can be rooted in how your
relationship was with your father.
Did you or your mother, while in a fit of rage
or in a hurry, maybe say to your children that you were going to leave without
them if they don't hurry up? (I was personally guilty of this one on one or two
occasions and had to repent.)
Medically, you get three phases of stress. If
you are calm and relaxed and loved, your brain gives off- the correct amount of
chemicals and hormones. Phase 2 and 3 are when your body goes into a state of
stress, or fight and flight mode. Fight and flight mode is a built-in system
that God has placed there for short bursts of energy, for when you are in a
dangerous situation.
If you have long term stress, anxiety and fear
in your life, then you are constantly in phase 2 and 3. High levels of cortisol
hormone is then constantly released. Overproduction of this hormone end up supressing
your immune system. If your immune function goes down, them something else gets
out of balance etc. This means inflammation happens due to long term histamine
that is being released. Sickness and disease settle in.
Many people have learnt to cope with their
sickness and disease, controlling it with medication and elimination of certain
things. It becomes a way of life. Your identity should not be rooted and based
on your sickness. Your identity should be in Christ.
If you are currently in a place of great stress,
you should maybe consider using the product “Composure” by AIM while you are
dealing with all the emotions that are surfacing. It is a blend of whole herbs
and extracts that can help soothe and calm the nervous system while you are in
your process of healing.
Go to myaimstore.com/healthamplified to find AIM’s
Composure.
I will be elaborating on this topic over the
next 2 weeks. Let this be food for thought for this week.
Blessings.
