TOXIC EMOTIONS

An explanation of how our thoughts make us ill! We know about positive thoughts and how to empower but do we understand the downside of these thoughts

Since the late 1960s, western psychotherapists working with people suffering from serious, even life-threatening illnesses have acknowledged the power of emotions as a contribution to the disease process.

Since the 1970s research in the field of psychoneuroimmunology (mind to immune system) has documented direct links between emotions and biochemical events in the body, thereby establishing - on a scientific basis - what folk healers have always known - emotions can manifest themselves as physical symptoms!

Christiane Northrup - noted women's health expert, coined the term 'toxic emotions' to indicate the powerful, strongly held and often unconsciously active beliefs and emotions that help generate symptoms that keep illnesses in place.

She explains that if we fail to work through our emotional distress (which includes damaging beliefs and strong, unexpressed emotions), we set the body for physical distress.

Our personal histories are 'lodged and stored' throughout the body in the muscles, organs and tissues. That is why, in her view, as well as in the view of many of us as alternative practitioners - beliefs and emotions can be legitimate toxins, contributing to an overall weakening of the immune system.

The subconscious lack of self-esteem can be the most dangerous of all toxic emotions. It can prevent therapy from being effective. Some of the worst emotional stresses contributing to cancer involve events (such as incest or childhood sexual abuse) that the cancer patient experienced as a child and that are 'remembered' only at the subconscious level. Many patients cannot recover until these memories are discovered and treated.

I choose to diagnose at the subconscious level, using state-of-the-art software developed by an ex-NASA scientist. At this level I am able to uncover what is deeply buried in the subconscious mind and by my questions and pathways I bring it to the fore to be released. Thereby releasing it also from the conscious mind and the physical body.

The results are amazing.

Remember - we are what we think - we are what we have been led to think - we are what we have buried in the subconscious mind!
