Shoulders: Bearing the Burdens and Responsibilities
In the medical world, we often feel like we are labelled with our physical problems, then given synthetic medication to manage our symptoms. That is, until the side effects catches up to us, which leads to more medication. I’m grateful to the medical technology that saves lives and allows us to be pain-free when we have a temporary emergency, but not the kind that slowly kills us with a different disease. Our health doesn’t just become an issue physically, I believe it stems first from our emotions.
Let’s focus on our beliefs and how it affects our physical body shall we? Beliefs—>Feelings–>Thoughts—>Actions—>Results. One leads to another, in that order. Now, I know that most people don’t believe in how an emotion for belief, can actually cause our body’s afflictions. Many of our emotions are linked to certain parts of our body and our organs. For example, burden can be linked to our shoulders, lack of support to our backs, fear of the future to our legs, stubbornness to our stomach, anger to our kidneys, irritation to our skin, grief to our lungs etc. Sounds a bit strange? How about these…. ? They may be familiar to you….. Having headaches due to stress and when over-thinking, needing to pee due to fear in the bladder, vomiting due to disgust or over-eating when craving closeness.
