In other words, the hypothalamus gets tickled and gives you an emotional response, every time you create a meaning!

What basically happens is that ‘feel good’ or ‘feel bad’ chemical or neuropeptide bundles are stimulated to be released and these then travel to all of the cells in the body.

They act like a key which finds and locks into the cell receptors situated on the surface of every cell in our bodies. Once the key locks in, the cell changes its physical vibration and changes it to either a higher or a lower frequency.

Neuropeptides are like food to a cell. At the same time it is the natural function of cells to split and reproduce as they feed. So as the anger or guilt or ‘sadness peptides’continue to bombard the cell in response to our angry, guilty or sad thoughts, more receptor cells for anger, guilt etc are produced crowding out the surface of the cell. So as a result, there is consequently less space for happiness, gratitude, love, laughter and ‘acceptance receptors’ to grow.

You can also think of the process as a pattern of energy flow, like water.

Habits of thinking and feeling have chiselled out  channels in the body.

The energy, like water, will flow more easily into well chiselled channels and grooves, than new and more shallow ones. It will also flow around blockages, leaving the blocked areas unfed, unnurtured and more prone to disease

Basically, as long as they are fed, your cells have the power to influence meaning, feelings and ultimately health. What you create or what you focus upon depend upon a food-oriented mechanism. They want what they are fed the most, like an addiction or a craving and will reproduce quickly to get more of the same, whatever that is, laughter or tears!

In the case of someone with depression or who is feeling stuck on the lower frequency negative emotions, isn’t it amazing to think that this is simply due to an overproduction of receptor sites on the cells of the body that have grown to feed on these very emotions which are keeping them there, as long as the basic diet doesn’t change.

Because they have previously been fed more sad or ‘angry food’ than ‘happy food’, there are more of these specially tuned receptor sites waiting to be fed than there are happy ones. So, although you can temporarily feel really good and fired up at a seminar, it often isn’t long before you end up sliding back into the more habitual sadness or anger ‘staple diet’ shortly afterwards.

There’s a difference between longer term ‘happy peaceful’ states and short bursts of ‘happy ecstatic’

It can take time to build up new change.It starts with being aware of what’s happening and once you are aware you are empowered to make a change. If you understand the process this can help you to be more kind, patient and compassionate towards yourself. Like going on a new diet. New behaviours, thoughts and feelings are needed to reinforce the new perspective and become the new more nutritious cell food.

Energy needs a place to go

Every time you have an emotional response in the body there is creation of tension (like the surface tension of water turning to ice, it must expand)

Energy wants to go somewhere and it needs release.

Energy is everywhere. It is the basic stuff of the universe and like all energy, it has a charge, a tension that needs to be released. In the case of humans, energy is transmuted or changed, charged or released, by intention, focus, attention and attaching meaning to something.

Like the wave in quantum physics, the potential of the ‘non particular’ collapses into particles, into something solid simply by observing it.

This is the basis of the Secret, the basic Law of Attraction. We get what we focus upon the most. However this law is also a law of probability so it is well to remember that there is never a 100% guarantee that what you focus upon will happen. Just an increased probability.

Self sabotage

Self sabotage is a primal instinct. Did you know that every time a baby is born, oxytocin is released which is a chemical that forces the mother to become a nurturer. Nurturing is mainly achieved through touch. Touch is the first reference a baby makes for love and connection.

It has been discovered that if babies do not receive any physical touch in the early stages of upbringing that they often fail to thrive or survive. In fact their immune systems become compromised and they die.

Touch activates the lymphatic system which is essential for immunity and thriving. So at this early stage a relationship develops between touch, connection, love and life itself. This meaning then gets carried over into the rest of our lives and influences us deeply.

Love has become externalised by an Ego that is convinced that it needs love, touch and connection from the outside and is fearful that its removal would mean death.

Self sabotage comes from the fear of death. This may even go as far as someone becoming ill in order to have a connection they feel they wouldn’t get if they were to be well. The sabotage of success, in health, career, relationships and so on is often linked to the fear that success would lead to being cut off or rejected.

So a different food is needed.

Change the diet!

Every time you see success, in whatever area, in your own life and in the life of others, praise it.

New neural pathways will be created, brimming with new meaning, more love and more connection, especially from within, the ultimate source of nurturing and through which we thrive.

Storytelling

When we attach meanings to things and to the events in and around us we are basically creating stories, Ego stories.

Stories affect all of the matter around us and influence our visual representations, what we see, hear and understand and ultimately the actions we take and our state of health.

 Have you seen the water crystals photographed by the famous Dr Emoto who compiled the book ‘Hidden messages in Water’?

They show us in a very clear and often very beautiful way just how much language and meaning can affect the subatomic world and the everpresent flow of energy.

Simply attaching the word ‘love’ written on a piece of paper to a glass of water and left overnight, or praying over the water, produced an amazingly beautiful crystal formation, when that same water was frozen and allowed to crystallize.

Equally,words of anger, derision and rejection resulted in deformed, distorted, even cancerous looking crystal formations.

When you remember that our bodies are composed of about 70% water it makes you think! Especially if it is someone who has been in an abusive relationship for most of their lives. Would it be time to go on a new diet?

Try this experiment now:

Smile …

… and say to someone next to you, or to someone in your imagination (the body doesn’t know the difference)

“I appreciate you”          

Congratulations!

You have just sparked off about 19 trillion crystal formations and flooded your cells with a mass of higher vibrational neuropeptides. You probably even feel better already and in fact your immune system has been given a bit of a boost into the bargain!

The ever existent energy resource we all have at our disposal, our ingredient for the recipe we decide to bake, has been channeled into an action that has fed the happy, feel good receptors on the surface of our cells and this higher level vibration is a good food that nurtures and sustains life and good health.

The universal energy is a high energy of love and truth and when your focus is in alignment with it, you connect and thrive and the energy conforms in line with your focus and purpose. If your focus is turned to a lower vibration you are moving in the opposite direction to the flow and so you may experience this as some kind of conflict, stuckness and poorer state of health.

What have you been brought here to give? The more aligned you are with your purpose the more likely you will receive the manifestation of what you desire. Focus on your intention. Get it clear. Align with higher vibrational frequencies and your intention is much more likely to manifest, inside the body and out. You are much more likely to live a feast of a life of vibrant health and joy!

How Do You Define Chronic Illness?

Chronic Illness: An illness, the symptoms of which continue for a long period of time without abatement. In fact the word ”Chronic” actually comes from the Greek word ‘Chronos’ which is defined as ‘lasting for a long time’.

A chronic illness is most often a painful and usually debilitating condition that tends to last for over 12 weeks or longer, often for months, which may turn into years depending on how serious the condition is.

There are many different types of illnesses, a cold could last for a very a short  time and go away on its own. Sadly, an illness sometimes doesn’t go away and it may cause a lot of stress, upset and anxiety and can even turn the whole family upside down. Because chronic illness goes on for so long it requires some major adjustments to lifestyle and even how a person sees him or herself. It can be really scary to see your life turning out much differently than you expected.

Chronic illnesses are also sometimes passed through a parent’s genes, meaning that the condition or tendency can be passed on to the children before birth. An example of this might be AIDS which might not be immediately visible and gets worse over time.

A few examples of chronic illnesses can include:

-Allergies: A state of physical allergic reaction to certain things such as food, fruits and pollen.
-Asthma:A chronic inflamatory condition of the airways.
-Cancer :A  sickness which is essentially caused by abnormal, uncontrolled cell growth.
-Crohn’s disease: A chronic condition which causes damage to the small or large  intestine.
-Diabetes:A chronic disease in which the pancreas no longer produces enough insulin or when the cells stop responding to the insulin that is normally produced in the body, so that the sugar in the blood cannot be adequately absorbed into the cells  of the body to be converted into energy.
-Arthritis:damage to or inflamation of the joints or body systems :Can be divided into osteoarthritis which mainly affects the joints such as the hips and knees, and rheumatoid arthritis which can spread throughout the body and often shows up in deformities in the hands
-Haemophilia: A bleeding disorder in which one of the essential clotting factors is not functioning as it should.
-Coeliac Disease: A permanent lack of dietary gluten
-Lupus: An immune disease where the body produces the antibodies which  damage its own tissues.
-Epilepsy: A disorder in which nerve cells of the brain from time to time release abnormal electrical impulses resulting in uncontrollable fitting.
-Chronic fatigue, otherwise known as M.E which is a condition that is still not fully understood and causes constant fatigue, despite resting.

Each of these different chronic illnesses takes a different path and has different turnouts.

The illness may get more severe over a period of time. It can cause permanent changes to the body. Chronic illnesses in general may make you feel emotionally down and decrease your quality of life.

You are often left not knowing whether it may go or if it will stay. When you are first diagnosed with chronic illness you find yourself worrying about the future and most important of all your health.

If your illness is very serious then you will worry about things that you didn’t even care about before you were diagnosed. You will often find that the smallest of things have become the most important to you now. You will find yourself being frustated, annoyed, angry, depressed, stressed, worried, anxious and most likely of all, lonely and tearful. If you are feeling like this then its always best to talk to a doctor or a counsellor or link up with a group of fellow sufferers or survivors of chronic illness for information and support.

Finding help gives you more hope and helps you to relax and it will ensure you  have hope and possibilities of a positive outcome.  What gets people down the most is the pain, aches and stiffness and usually a constant lack of sleep that is so persistent with a chronic illness and pain such as chronic muscle pain.

Unlike acute pain which, although can be very severe is over relatively quickly, a chronic condition persists and persists. For example, someone with a toothache might be in agony for a while but it would also be over in a few hours. Whereas, if someone has athritis any movement can bring the experience of pain and stiffness, you cannot walk very far and many have trouble sleeping.

If you find yourself suffering from constant aches and pains over a period of time, even though at first the symptoms aren’t so painful, more of a nuisance, its better to check with a doctor to rule out any potential chronic condition before it takes full hold and when you have a better chance of preventing this life changing illness.
