In my early 30’s my throat had been hurting regularly for years. It usually hurt for smaller periods of time which still made up about 200 of my days in a year. My children had been really young and I constantly worried that they would catch some sickness from me. Our general practicioner couldn’t find the source of the sickness and I was sent to several tests and examinations. I went to at least 6 different specialists but they all said that from their professional viewpoint, I was completely healthy. At that point in my life the thought of getting a divorce had been on my mind more and more, the concept of which seemed so absurd to me that I couldn’t even admit to myself how seriously I was considering it. I did not dare accept the intensifying feeling let alone talk about it to anyone. Back then I had not known anything of psychosomatics. Being a rational engineer, I probably would have dismissed the idea entirely, saying it was folly. There was still no cure for the sickness, however, when I finally got the courage to look the deep and serious spiritual issue I was facing in the eye and what’s more talked about it with my then-wife and my best friend, the symphtoms simply dissappeared.

Today, it is clear as day that my body was sending me signals about the suffocating spiritual state I’d been in due to all the unaccepted and unsaid things within me. Since then, at the times of my spiritual crisises, I had all sorts of different symphoms. I learned how to understand them more and more and gained deeper self knowledge through of it. My view of the world widened and progressed more and more and after a while I came to an understanding that there are psychosomatic diseases where unsolved spiritual issues manifest themselves in physical symphtoms on the body. There are of course sicknesses that have nothing to do with spiritual issues. Today, I still believe this, however the proportion changed. Today, I know wiith absolute certainty that most diseases, either in a direct or indirect way, are psychosomatic. Of course when your children bring the flu home from school and you catch it from them you needn’t search for a psychosomatic explanation. But in most other cases you can find an obvious connection between the source of the disease and the spiritual problem behind it. Some time ago a colleague of mine, who I respected very much and was very dear to me, lost his wife who he had loved and cared about deeply. He could never really process this or even accept her death. It was as if he didn’t want to acknowledge that it was over, didn’t want to hear that his wife was not around  anymore. He spent the rest of his life in this state and buried himself in his work. Soon after he got cancer. If you are well versed in psychosomatrics you can guess where the tumor was... that’s right, on his ear. He didn’t want to hear that his wife was no more. The tumor grew where they couldn’t operate on him, so our beloved colleague followed his dear wife soon after her death.

That’s how big of a connection there is between spiritual and physical issues. Burying and carrying our grievances, pains, uncured spiritual wounds for years on end is bound to result in diseases sooner or later. Your body is signaling you and it is telling you this: Please help, we are in distress! Don’t be blind! Look your soul in the eye and stop running from yourself!

Ever since I’ve been looking at people this way, I have come across hundreds of examples I could mention. I’ll write about one more for you. An acquaintance of mine had been through a divorce and hate bloomed between the divorced couple. The divorce hadn’t been finalized yet, they had long been arguing about the question of property. The woman wasn’t willing to let go of the wealth she was used to living in, even though in terms of law, she wasn’t entitled to much of it. She became so obsessed with it that all of her energy and hate were turned toward clinging to that wealth tooth and nail. Naturally she developed an extremely progressed case of hemorrhoids, one that could only minimally be cured even with surgery. This is a typical physical consequence of not wanting to let go of something that should be let go of. Her body warned her that she was in too deep and that this wasn’t her path. But that stubborn ego wouldn’t let go of the obsession it had formed.

There are cases when we can’t make clear conclusions about spiritual issues from physical signs. The main reason behind this is our own ego. It has developed for this exact reason, to hide our spiritual wounds and protect us from the things that we have not accepted in ourselves. In most cases this makes us blind when it comes to finding connections between our own physical and spiritual state. However, an understanding partner or friend, a good therapist or kinesiologist can help with this. Sadly, in order to get around our ego we need to be on a very advanced spiritual level. Few people can do this. But that doesn’t mean we should just accept the mirages created by the ego. With a little outside help, you can see behind it as well!

The way diseases work has also become obvious to me in the past years. As an engineer I instinctively look for reason and connections between everything. Spiritual problems have the power to change the vibration level of the spirit, which, after a while, causes physcial alterations in the body.  This is the physical explanation of the process happening inside us. Spiritual problems first cause spiritual alterations which present themselves in the form of negative emotions. The regular appearance of these emotions and their continuous repression further conservates the altered vibration level of the spirit, to which the body reacts by changing. The first level of change is not harmful. It’s purpose is to relieve the body of negative energies (these can be things like crying, gagging, vomiting, frequent urinating, diarrhea, acid reflux, or the opposite of these like constipation, convulsions, etc...). If these don’t help, there comes the next level, which is filled with inflammations, physical pain, convulsions (e.g. migranes, lymph inflammation, stomach pain, etc...). If these still don’t bring a positive change in the soul’s vibration level, more serious physical alterations begin. Continuous muscle or joint pain, hemorrhoids and so on. The area in question can help determine the kind of the spiritual problem that is causing it. The final stage is that of chronic diseases (peptic ulcer, skin alterations, heart and vascular diseases, cancer...). I believe cancer is psychosomatic in most cases as well. The problem is that if the spiritual problem is causing alterations of this magnitude, the patient has repressed the causing spiritual pain for so long and so deep that they have learned to live with it and they cannot face it by themselves. I have consulted about this with a cancer-specialist who said that she accepts that behind sicknesses like these there is a spiritual reason. However, she also said that by the time these patients arrive at the hospital their states are so progressed that there isn’t time for this approach if the patient wishes to continue living. So they have no choice but to attack the disease with more invasive methods. She also said that at the hospital she workes at there is not one psychologist who could be asked for this kind of help. I completely agree with her opinion. But how many cases have we seen where patients who were cured of cancer relapse again few years later. That’s why treating the spiritual problem is crucial, to ensure that people don’t fall back into their past states of sickness. It would help reduce the amount of people who relapse while increasing the given person’s general level of happiness.

To those who are more seriously interested in psychosomatrics, I will write about it from multiple aspects later on this blog. You can also find a lot of quality literature in the topic. One which provides a great start into psychosomatrics is Encyclopedia of Ailments and Diseases by Jacques Martel. What’s important to know about the author is that he has spent his whole life exploring the spiritual problems behind sicknesses.

Two more pieces of advice! First, if you recognize the reason behind psychosomatric symphtoms in one of your loved ones, but they don’t want to accept it, please DO NOT force it upon them! For some reason it is not time for them to start their journey on the path of spiritual awakening yet. You can go a much longer way by peacfully accepting the situation than you ever could by rational reasoning or persuasion. The second piece of advice is, if rational medicine can’t find a connection between two or more physical symphtoms, then they are 100% psychosomatic. I had a friend with such symphtoms and naturally the solution for his problem was spiritual healing...

I currently have a few mild symphtoms as well, which I don’t fully know the spiritual cause of yet, despite having payed attention to these new signals of my body. What I would like to show you with this is that you need to be able to truly look into yourself (which also requires immense self-knowledge) to be able to find spiritual connections. This takes time. You can’t do it fast. If in another few weeks I still haven’t figured out the solution by myself, or my symphtoms will have gotten worse, I will definietly reach out to someone and ask for help. But since my body has a reason for signaling me, I am sure it will help me find out how to help myself...

I wish you great success in getting healthier and getting more in tune with yourself through figuring out your body’s signals and healing your soul!
