Self-Healing

You pay attention to every little ache and pain, do you not?  In most cases you take action to make the pain go away.  In some cases you put a band aid on it, but you do not get to the root cause.  We wish to tell you today that you do the same thing with your emotions more often than you are aware.  And that is the problem.  You can ignore your emotions and remain unaware of them until they come back to bite you, as you are wont to say.  Painful emotions can be just as powerful of a symptom as a bleeding wound, yet you can ignore these or simply push them down and refuse treatment.  Oh, but they will come back up again,  we assure you, and often in the most unfortunate ways. 

Do you not realize that painful emotions are doing you a favor?  They are there to show you a wound that needs healing.  When you ignore them, the wound festers and grows.  How do you treat a painful emotion, then?  You thank it for showing you that something is wrong.  Then you ask it what it has to teach you.  Then you listen carefully and ask for certainty to make sure you are not just putting a band aid on the issue.  Then you work to heal the root cause.  Yes, get to the bottom of that wound and clean it out well.  When you have done your work, thank the pain again and release it.  Self-healing.  It is a powerful tool in your arsenal to raise your consciousness and bring more joy into your life.
