Perhaps you can benefit through my experiences which brought me to this conclusion.
Reviewing Childhood is Necessary
There are many things that occur during our childhood that we forget. I know that I would rather forget mine, and did. During years in therapy, I never really wanted to remember what happened during my youth, it was too painful.
Everything you carry emotionally is rooted in your childhood. If you want to be emotionally and physically well, at some point in your life, you have to examine what happened in your childhood.
During my 30's, my body broke down, I had severe and chronic pains in my back and stomach. I also remember having severe headaches where I would lie on my back in a darkened room with a cold compress on my head. To relieve the pain, I took tranquilizers and pain killers. I also drank too much wine.
My stomach hurt before and after I ate and I felt nauseous most of the time. I can remember eating chalky lozenges (Gelusil) for stomach gastritis. The doctor suggested that I have an operation. That was the last thing I wanted to do, so I went to a homeopath who suggested that I change my diet. The worst thing I can remember drinking is raw potato juice.
Heal your Emotions - Heal Your Body
I discovered that my
emotions
were the root cause of all of my aches and pains in my 50's. My anger and health were related. Since my mother was in control during my youth, I had learned to
swallow my emotions
especially anger. I carried the pain too long and didn't realize it till my mother died which led to my epiphany - my spiritual awakening.
Everything changed. I started listening to the voices that I had run from my whole life. I learned what I had to do, and this time I listened.
Even though I have training as a psychological counselor, the 'spiritual' method of healing the physical body and mind works more efficiently and much faster.
The only necessary ingredient is faith and belief in the Higher Power. This method is 'spiritual healing'.
