The Emotion Factor & The Hidden Cause of Illness
I mean really...something that happened when you were two years old could be behind an illness or physical symptoms 20, 30, 40, even 50 years later??  I can personally attest that YES, this is not only possible, but probable.  My 15 year journey to find healing from a debilitating chronic illness has led me down many paths, and I've tried just about every treatment, technique, and supplement I've come across.  But what has had the greatest impact is the discovery of the trauma and emotion behind my symptoms...and the patterns and behaviors that resulted from them. 

I won't bore you with the details, but I can tell you that events and circumstances that occurred when I was two and three years old established patterns of thought and behavior that I can now see were contributing factors in the development of the chronic illness I suffered with later in life. 

Thankfully we live in a time when there are so many knowledgeable and talented people who have the skill and ability to help us to identify, release, and move past these traumas and emotions.  If you have "tried everything" and have been unable to identify the cause of your illness/physical symptoms, or your instincts tell you that emotional blocks could be behind your physical challenges, I would recommend you consider the following:

1.  EFT: Emotional Freedom Technique
This technique involves tapping on acupressure points on the body, and can offer profound results. This does not require practitioner assistance, although working with someone experienced in EFT can greatly enhance results. While I use EFT on a regular basis on my own, it was the work I did with Ruth Stern that really helped me make the most of this powerful technique.  Read more about EFT

2.  Consider working with an energy healer/intuitive.  The work I have done with Cranio Sacral Therapist Charlene McLachlan, as well as others who do energy work, have provided amazing insights & results.  Releasing and letting go of blocked energy allows healthy chi to flow through the body, mind & spirit...and create an environment of healing so the body can do what it was intended to: heal itself.  Read more about Cranio Sacral

If you need help locating a practitioner feel free to email me and I would be glad to share the names/contact info of the energy healers I have worked with, or try to help you find someone in your area: andrea@healwithhope.com
