The Latent Emotions That Lie Behind Each Symptom Or Diagnosis
Every illness or ailment we go through carries an unhealed, unresolved, unheard emotion.
Symptoms are the great messengers in our lives messengers that we must register to know what they are coming to say and to be able to heal the pain of the soul.
The organ that gets sick is related to an emotion that causes such ailment, which accompanies us without healing as a trauma throughout the history of our life.
The diagnosis or illness that manifests is not accidental; It has a meaning, a cause and a saying that was not expressed in words in a timely manner generating an imbalance in the body, resulting in the appearance of the disease.
As a therapist, I see that patients come to my office suffering from one diagnosis after another, having already gone through the extensive medical pilgrimage with the current medication and without being able to generate the emotional question that such pain entails, without being able to talk emotionally about that pain.
Why is it difficult for us to talk about what we feel?
This difficulty arises because Every question we can ask ourselves leads us to search for an answer and an action that accompanies said answer knowing that we must take responsibility for what we find, leave already known areas and take action.
We are not used to change; Change is scary, it causes discomfort not knowing what we are going to find or what the new thing will be like. And many times we remain in situations or relationships that are not good for us, that generate pain, unhappiness, that are toxic.
That continuity over time, the lack of a question and the absence of an action are the sum of what could manifest as a disease, where the body first whispers, then speaks and finally screams through a symptom.
Connecting with our emotions
Entering the emotional field will lead us to a process that is necessary to go through even with pain to achieve the changes we want. This process requires courage and honesty with ourselves, being absolutely necessary to be able to walk the new path.
We are used to carrying heavy backpacks, mandates that we no longer want, not listening to what is happening to us; sometimes, We are afraid to choose what we want because of the greater fear of breaking those rules imposed culturally and familiarly.
And so we stop observing ourselves and knowing ourselves authentically; We forget that we have the obligation and responsibility to take the path of our dreams.
To do?
The first step is to be able to become aware of what is happening to us observing so that the next step is a rethinking, a reset of what we want and where we want to direct our lives.
Knowing that choosing means leaving something behind, and this entails an accompanying grief, but also knowing that without this process, without this choice, without this change, the symptom will always manifest, being an acute condition at the beginning and becoming chronic if it is not attended to.
Sometimes we cannot take this path alone, requiring listening and accompaniment from a professional, who with neutral and active listening guides and supports those anxieties that will surely appear.
Only when we can look inside ourselves, get to know ourselves, generate a question and search for the path we want Even if this means leaving things, situations or relationships behind, it will be time to begin to heal emotionally, giving rise to words and helping the symptom begin to ease its course.
I invite you to ask yourself if you are living the life you want or the life that others wanted for you, taking this question as a starting point to reach the be what will happen when you find the answer and can go through your own process.
My name is Andrea Gabriela Boullon, I have a degree in Clinical Psychology, and a specialist in holistic therapies. I have been developing my activity in the Institutional field for 24 years with adults and seniors, and in the private sector for more than 27 years I have been working with adolescents, adults, seniors and couples.
I chose holistic therapies as a way of working because I consider the Be from its completeness, body, mind and soul, weaving in each consultation a network of action with a complete and comprehensive approach… Without forgetting the social factor of accompanying each patient, in many cases dialogue with the members who accompany is necessary. in your daily life.
My therapeutic work is based on the integration mentioned above and applying the approach in therapy from there, trying to create a connection with feeling, saying and doing. Generating congruence between these factors. Accompanying the patient in their pain, to discover, to remove the veils that do not allow them to move forward and reach the other shore together, healing the emotions that impact the body.
