Another View Point of the Emotional Baggage we Carry.

Here I place before you two videos that speak about Emotional Baggage and the effect it has on our health. Within these two videos is also embedded so to say the idea of how we could deal with our Emotional Baggage.

The First Video is Joseph Murphy. I am sure many of you have read his books. 

This second Video is Dr. Hegde speaking at Mediquest. It's quite likely you have listened to him on your WhatsApp messages.

Our Lives are precious. I hope and pray that our will to be happy and fulfill our mission on earth is much stronger than our fear of the past. Often we give more power to our fears than to the Love of the life that God has given us. We absolutely must give up our victim roles and take up inspirational and leadership roles. No one can make us happy and no one can make us sad. We need very badly to take responsibility for our happiness and health today.

This blog post is only an interim post. I have not had time to write. I will write. Blessings to all of you.

Sickness – A physical reality, of the Emotional Baggage We Carry!

My Experience.

Emotional Baggage! In all my years of counseling, I have never met a physically sick,  person who is without Emotional Baggage. I have great compassion for people who are sick. At various stages of my life, I have cared for them with much love. But also, with a lot of regrets. 

In life, there are neither rewards nor punishments. There are only consequences.

Sickness is the consequence of the way we live. You just repeat this to anyone, and you will see how vehemently they will deny it. To most people sickness “just happens”, or they believe they picked it up from some unhygienic place or situation or person.

Our beliefs, our emotional baggage – that is, the memories of hurts, rejection, traumas, death of a dear one, or whatever have created fear and insecurity in our lives. These eventually act on our glands, heart, organs etc. And so we fall sick.

Drop your Emotional Baggage

Among the sick persons, I have come across, there were those who were eager to get well and they were very much open to thinking out of the box. These soon learned and understood that their sickness was a result of the emotional baggage they were carrying. While taking the help of medicines and Doctors, they also worked at healing their memories, their relationships, and mending their lifestyle and food habits. (Bad lifestyles and food habits are a result of hanging on to emotional baggage.) These went into counseling, meditation, yoga, walking, exercising in general, and corrected their eating habits. They detached themselves from their emotional baggage and quickly returned to good health and happiness, no matter what their sickness.

People who often don't heal!

The other group of sick people I came across was basically made up of people who were themselves victims of society, born of abusive parents, children of broken families, or simply had had traumatic experiences, like severe accidents, loss of parents, sexual abuse, etc.  They were angry, moody, depressed, dependent, chronically sick, etc., etc. These people rarely if ever recover. They generally blame anyone and everyone, including God for their conditions. Perhaps with help, they could heal. And this is the goal of my article. They must be encouraged to introspect. They must be helped to understand that by looking at their own lives they could make new choices. 

Sickness - A Gift to complete Healing!

Sickness is like a red flag, warning you that it's time to take a look at yourself. Please! Whatever be your sickness, even if it be Cancer, or rather I’d say, particularly Cancer, be sure you can be cured. Yes, you heard me correctly. Cancer can be and is cured. Every sickness can be cured including the so-called incurable sicknesses. There is enough evidence to that effect. Choose to ask yourself; what is my sickness telling me about myself, my life. Choose to live a healthy and happy life.
