The connection between our emotional healing and the state of our mindset and bodily health is emerging as the new main areas of focus for self-healing and holistic health. The cause for our disruptive emotions appears inside of our body first as an imbalance on the level of our organs. This has been known in Traditional Chinese Medicine for millennia, and is now bridging together with western science to present new possibilities on the level of healing negative emotions and past trauma. It is our heart consciousness that becomes blocked and this is often overlooked in many paths of traditional emotional healing. When we unblock the emotions in the body, we can then return to a holistic heartfelt state, this is done before we work on any emotions at their current face value. At the same time if our mindset is leaning towards the negative and our outlook is not generally progressive then we are trying to swim against the river upstream in an attempt to overcome these negative emotions. A negative mindset and self-image can inflame and re-enliven any progress to the emotional work we might achieve.
