Spiritual component of physical conditions
Since we are spiritual as well as physical beings, our thoughts, attitudes and emotions affect our health at least as much as the physical world. Profound healing becomes possible when we address both the spiritual and the physical aspects of a condition. Use the descriptions below to address the spiritual component, and seek medical attention from your professional healthcare provider to address the physical. For more in-depth information, check out Why do we get sick / suffer injuries / have accidents?

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
A | Back to Navigate | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Abdomen | Since the abdomen contains many of our organs, the spiritual condition of our innermost thoughts will manifest there Issues that can arise Abdominal aortic aneurysm, Abdominal bloating, Abdominal distension, Itchy abdominal, Abdominal pain | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Abdomen bloating | Putting too much, or too little, emphasis on self. See ego, self-importance | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Abdomen distension | Excessive thoughts of ego, self-importance, or self-condemnation, or shame. See self-esteem | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Abdomen pain | See distress | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Ability to learn | Results from our feelings of worthiness to be alive, to receive nourishment, to receive focused, loving attention, and to participate meaningfully in the family Issues that can arise ADD / ADHD, Learning disorders | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Absence seizure (Generalized) | Feeling extremely vulnerable ("I want my mommy!"). Trying to "seize" someone's attention. See Anger, fear | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Absenteeism / Tardiness | Absenteeism and chronic lateness are passive/aggressive forms of abandonment in which we are unable or unwilling to meet responsibilities. It is the source of many of life’s difficulties and can infuriate those who are waiting for us, and sometimes that is the whole point. See avoidance, dawdling, defiance, silent rebellion Spiritual effects Unable or unwilling to follow through on commitments, depression Physical effects Arrhythmia, hypothyroidism Change the pattern Meditate to find and resolve the reason for the pattern. Visit WikiHow to Learn how to prioritize Note: Do you know someone who is always late to meet you? Try setting a limit for how long you will wait for them (your choice whether to let them know). Maybe it will be 15 minutes, maybe 30, but stick to whatever you decide and leave after your time limit | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Accident proneness | Guilt or shame can make us unconsciously seek punishment, or wish to prove we are not as good as everyone thinks, or we ought to be punished for doing well if a loved one is a failure. This can manifest in physical as injury-causing accidents that often occur just before our performance is to be judged or tested (fear of failure/success). Injuries are a way to show we are in pain and distress and in need of nurturing or sympathetic attention. See bruises Change the pattern Build stable self-esteem to enable expression of our emotional needs in a mature way | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Acetylcholine (neurotransmitter) | Issues that can arise Deficiency Denial our actions have played any role in our negative or painful life experiences. See associated conditions: Alzheimer's disease, dementia, myasthenia gravis. See blame, self-righteousness, victim, What is acetylcholine? Excess Unsure as to what, if anything, we want to bring into our reality. See associated conditions: headaches, hives, insomnia. See despair, fear of failure or of success | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Achenbach syndrome (Paroxysmal finger hematoma) | Fear of having to stand up for self and having an unsuccessful outcome (fear of confrontation). See birth abnormalities (including genetic disorders), legacy family pattern | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Acne | Too much friction in our emotional environment and not knowing what to do about it. Chronic feelings of embarrassment, guilt, perfectionism, shame Change the pattern Next time you break out, try to recall what was happening for you during the previous three or four days. Look for anything that might have upset you emotionally. Maybe there was an argument, maybe someone suffered an accident or got sick, maybe something happened at work, etc. Unless you were personally responsible for whatever it was, resist the temptation to blame yourself, and most importantly, do not accept blame from anyone else. If you were responsible, then you can take steps to make changes. Building stable self-esteem will help your skin to clear up faster and, gradually, the length of time between breakouts will get longer and severity will decrease | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Acne excoriée (Acne excorie, Pickers acne) | See acne, obsessive/compulsive behaviours, skin-picking disorder | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Actinic keratosis | Old emotional injuries we thought long-forgotten bubble to the surface of consciousness, triggered by incidents that make us feel as we did when we were young and defenseless | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Acute adrenal failure (Addisonian crisis) | Can occur upon learning a cherished belief system is false | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Acute bacterial prostatitis | Sudden and severe self-criticism over an action taken or not taken within the previous day or two, such that it manifests in physical | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Acute compartment syndrome | Results from a physical injury that follows a traumatic event we have ignored or minimized. See Why do we get sick / suffer injuries / have accidents? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Acute gastritis | Look to recent events for something that was shocking or sickening, that triggered an extreme emotional response in us, even if we did not say anything out loud | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Acute myeloid leukemia | Sudden suspicion our childhood fear of God’s wrath and/or retribution is true. While ultimately in the hands of the Universal Intelligence, justice is always tempered with forgiveness and mercy. See birth abnormalities, karma | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Acute pancreatitis | Occurs within two or three days of receiving a devastating blow to our ego, like someone criticising us or suddenly withholding their approval for no apparent reason | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
ADD / ADHD | Means literally being unable to hold our focus for any longer than a few seconds, and it means literally we received too little or too much attention as a child. Hyperactivity is a physical response to a desperate need to get - or avoid - focused attention Looks like Habitually over-reacting to life experiences as an excuse to ensure we receive lots of attention. Attempts by others to soothe us are like an addictive balm, but the risk is they will eventually tire of soothing us. If we do not get the desired response (favourable attention), our agitation can increase to the point of tears or even temper tantrums disguised as a fear response, in the hopes they will give up and comfort us. Even if that 'comfort' comes in a negative form like yelling or shaming, it is preferable to going without attention Spiritual effects Can manifest as a chronic need for validation from others. See co-dependent relationships, self-esteem Physical effects Ear and hearing issues, eye and vision issues, comprehension and memory problems Change the pattern Work on building a relationship with your inner child. By paying better attention to our needs, we find it easier to pay better attention in daily life. Doing these things gives us something meaningful on which to focus... our happiness. The more we meet our needs, the easier it becomes to maintain focus - an extra benefit! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Addiction to pain | If unable to express our emotional needs, telling others we have physical pain is one way to get some much-needed attention. This can be addictive | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Addictions | Result from a spiritual desire to avoid pain or run away from truth, from responsibilities, from our thoughts and emotions, and even from life. Can be to a chemical substance (also called (Substance abuse disorder or Substance abuse dependence) like food, tobacco, drugs or alcohol, or to any behaviour (like gambling, shopping, overusing a cellphone or personal device, etc.). See abandonment, obsessive/compulsive behaviours. Spiritual symptoms of addictions vary from telling constant stories about how everybody has 'done me wrong' (victim pattern) to pathological lying, to using guilt trips to manipulate others, to avoiding making decisions (see hoarding). We think we are sustained by our addictions, but truly, our addictions are sustained by us, by our thoughts. Change the pattern ... 'Break' the habit | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Addison's disease | Can occur if we habitually play victim whenever someone tries to hold us accountable for our words or actions. The alternative, accepting responsibility, is out of the question since we believe doing so would be devastating | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Adenocarcinoma | Withholding spiritual nourishment from self (joy, contentment, optimism, pleasure) because after all, we really do not deserve to be happy... we should suffer Spiritual risk factors Feeling like a martyr and/or victim, and wishing someone would, just for once, finally give us their undivided, loving attention, yet unwilling to give that to others. See blame, guilt, shame Physical risk factors See addiction, obsessive compulsive disorder Change the pattern While changing our physical diet can be challenging enough, changing our spiritual diet requires even more effort.

Adiposis dolorosa (Dercum's disease) | Belief or fear uninhibited expression of our innermost thoughts will lead to disaster. See lipoma, affected area and birth abnormalities / genetic disorders, plus autoimmune diseases, brain, hormones | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Adrenal glands | Represent our ability to regulate our reaction to emotional stress Issues that can arise Acute adrenal failure (Addisonian crisis), Adrenal cancer, Addison's disease, Primary adrenal insufficiency, Secondary adrenal insufficiency, Congenital adrenal hyperplasia, Cushing syndrome, Hyperaldosteronism, Adrenal glands - other infections, Spread of cancer to adrenals, Tuberculosis | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Aggressive anxiety disorder | Pattern of lashing out at others either physically or verbally when feeling unable to control a situation. See intermittent explosive disorder, stress | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Aggressive/passive behaviour | Obnoxious behaviour designed to force others into submission. This childish, abusive pattern results from growing up in an extremely controlled household or an environment with no boundaries at all. The aggressive phase can manifest as shouting orders, criticisms or guilt trips, throwing temper tantrums, threatening physical or financial assault, or abandonment. When the victim submits and becomes obedient and docile, the passive phase then begins. The aggressor shows mercy by showering the victim with affection, warmth and praise, giving gifts or rewards and generally being sweet and attentive... until the next time. The passive phase lures the victim into a false sense of security, and can even create a guilty feeling for ever having doubted the aggressor Spiritual effects Pathological lying, greed, self-righteousness, distrust Physical effects High blood pressure, dental problems (can result in total tooth loss), laziness or hoarding Change the pattern If this behaviour is an issue for you, either as aggressor or victim, visit Section 2 to start changing your life | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
AIDS (Autoimmune deficiency syndrome) | Many believe this condition is a punishment sent by God. It is not (see unconditional love). Can occur in the presence of utter despair or deep shame, or where there is a complete lack of self-esteem or sense of self-worth. Can occur if we have been deprived of approval from our caregivers and/or loved ones. Can occur when we are the victim of someone's selfish lack of regard for others. See genital herpes, HIV, sexually transmitted diseases (STD's), tuberculosis | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Akathisia | Can be triggered by antipsychotic drugs used to treat mental illness. See birth abnormalities (including genetic disorders).

Allergic fungal sinusitis | Unable or unwilling to acknowledge to others we have suffered an incredibly painful experience, and there are reminders of it everywhere, making us feel it will be impossible to forget. We have built a spiritual dam to prevent our tears from flowing | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Allergic reactions | Represent an unspoken plea for help in dealing with an on-going traumatic situation. See Multiple Chemical Sensitivity Issues that can arise Allergic fungal sinusitis, Allergic reactions as a side effect, Anaphylaxis, Histamine intolerance, Seasonal hay fever | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Allergic reactions as a side effect | Adverse reaction to a medical intervention to help the problem, such that the problem is solved but a new one is created - a vicious cycle we feel powerless to change. The solution? Find and resolve the root spiritual component of the original issue | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Alopecia | Chronic self-condemnation for every mistake we have ever made | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Alzheimer’s disease | Chronic self-deception. Habitually denying we played any role in our negative experiences, yet feeling guilt over choices we made that we know had devastating consequences, and/or a strong desire to make everyone believe we are innocent. In other words, wanting to live in a fairy tale and escape being held responsible (see fear of retribution). The underlying guilt and shame can create a victim mentality and a constant need to blame. See dementia | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Ambiguous genitalia | Can occur as a life lesson for those who may have - in a previous existence - made less-than-considerate choices for someone in their care who was fully dependent. See birth abnormalities, required life experiences, What is karma? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Amenorrhea | If not caused by breastfeeding, pregnancy or menopause: Deep and possibly unrecognized fear of any or all of the following: being an adult with responsibilities, being a female adult, attracting sexual attention, becoming pregnant, giving birth, becoming a parent | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Amniotic fluid | Represents protection. Too much, or too little, amniotic fluid reflects the mother’s ability or willingness to provide the child with balanced care and protection. For example, too much amniotic fluid represents a tendency to be over-protective, while too little represents a tendency to be inattentive. Can also indicate both the incoming soul and the family require certain experiences for their learning. See birth abnormalities including genetic disorders, breech position, legacy family patterns | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Amyloidosis | Feeling like a prisoner in our life situation. See victim See associated conditions Enlarged tongue, Rheumatoid arthritis, Tuberculosis | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, adult-onset (ALS) | Denying our chronic, desperate need to avoid discussing painful issues or sensitive subjects, yet yearning to bring them out into the open. The issue here is fighting with self over whether to discuss something that is important to us or keep it hidden. Of course we all have reasons for wanting to avoid discussing some subjects; often it is because we think others will react poorly when we raise topics they themselves wish to avoid. This not knowing which topics are safe to discuss - the indecision - creates a push-pull effect on the body. Nerves and muscles are unconsciously tightened and relaxed at a furious pace, creating unimaginable strain on the systems. After many years of living with this pattern, damage occurs at cellular level. The body is eventually unable to cope and ALS results. Not everyone with this issue develops ALS (see Primary Lateral Sclerosis). For those with ALS, the behaviour is severe, chronic and long-standing. It is not just one topic that is avoided - the indecision manifests in all choices of topics to share or avoid discussing. Those that are discussed that meet with negative responses or reactions cause us to judge, criticise and condemn self for making trouble. Those that are kept hidden remain in the thoughts creating further damage. The challenge is to change the pattern, that is, to share and discuss what is important to us and to keep hidden that which we do not yet wish to disclose, in the knowledge we cannot control how others react. Their reactions are just that - their reactions If inherited See birth abnormalities, legacy family pattern and What is karma? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Anal fissure | Blaming someone for pressuring us to hurry up and perform but not seeing the pressure - the stress - comes from our own need to win their approval | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Anaphylaxis | Frustration with feeling it is unsafe to share our true thoughts about the current troubling situation. See Allergens, Angioedema | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Andropause | Major physical life change that can create challenges to our self-esteem. Can show how well or poorly we adapt to change.

Meditating to understand the spiritual component of the physical issues arising can reduce frequency and duration of symptoms | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Anemia | Giving up. Feeling powerless and angry everyone else seems to have so much power. See blame, victim See type Sickle cell anemia, Thalassemia | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Anendophasia | Does having this condition mean one has no spiritual guide/angel/teacher? Not at all. Each soul in human form is accompanied by a divine representative.

Arteriosclerosis and Atherosclerosis | Unable or unwilling to "go with the flow". Arguing with anyone who challenges our authority, in the belief self knows best - about everything. See blood clots | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Arthritis (Degenerative joint disease, osteoarthritis, OA) | Over-compensating for a perceived weakness in a particular area. Can develop after a joint has been injured, but releasing anger and blame over the injury can help to prevent arthritis from forming, or at least reduce its painful and sometimes disfiguring effects See type / affected area Arthritic ankles, Ankylosing spondylitis, Collar bone (AC joint) arthritis, Bone spurs, Arthritic feet, Arthritic fingers, Gout, Arthritis hands, Arthritis hips, Arthritis knees, Arthritis neck, Psoriatic arthritis, Reactive arthritis, Rheumatoid arthritis, Arthritis shoulder, Arthritis spine, Arthritis toes | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Breast cancer | There are more than 80 types of breast cancer, hence the many possible spiritual components. Can be any or all of the following factors: Taking on a persona we feel was thrust upon us by others or by negative life experiences. Belief how we treat self and others is nurturing, when it is not. Feeling unloved or unlovable. Nursing grudges (resentment). Needing to mother or be mothered. Feeling unloved or unlovable.

Breast size | Although not a problem as such, breast size creates much turmoil for our lives no matter our gender. The most important consideration in breast size (or any part of the physical body) is our thought patterns. Some people with breasts sized larger than their frame might suggest can be either very nurturing or kind, or very cold and cruel. The opposite also holds true, some with smaller breasts than their frame might suggest can be among the kindest, most nurturing - or coldest, cruelest - people. If someone has smaller breasts and gains a substantial amount of weight, their breasts might get bigger, but that would not necessarily mean their thought patterns had changed. Likewise, someone with larger breasts might have reduction surgery, and their thought patterns may or may not have changed at all. But the breasts do represent nurturing and kindness, so if problems arise, the place to start looking for the spiritual component of the issue would be our nurturing and kindness, either need for, lack thereof, or provision of. Do we receive enough nurturing? Are we kind to others? Do we feel worthy of receiving kindness or nurturing? Do we provide others with care and consideration? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Depression | Rather than being a constant state, depression tends to be more like waves on the ocean. Just as we are recovering from a bout, a new experience can trigger another episode. Depression can become a reflex reaction to a specific experience, like making a mistake (whether anyone else knows about it), disappointing someone, or someone saying "no" to us. Until the root cause has been recognized and dealt with, the condition can only be managed. Depression is based in our self-worth and self-esteem. A wave of depression often occurs if we feel we have lost the approval of someone who is very important to us. If our sense of self is completely wrapped up in that individual, as can happen when living or working in co-dependent relationships, we feel we will lose our identity without their approval. We will do almost anything to cope with our sense of loss and deprivation. Usually this means doing any number of negative behaviours in the hope of getting that person to help us recover and buy back into the relationship. Then, we tell ourselves, everything will be ok again. And it will be, for a little while. Until, almost from out of the blue, another experience will trigger another wave of self-hatred. Then we are right back where we started … punishing and hurting self ... going on a binge of alcohol or drug usage, starving ourselves or overeating / purging, withholding communication, shopping for things we do not need with money we do not have, cutting ourselves until we bleed, contemplating or attempting suicide, stopping doing the things we truly love to do … oh, the list is endless. There is another way to live, but it means changing how we relate to others, and more importantly, how we relate to ourselves.

Each of the neurons consists of not only a personal, physical memory, but a spiritual or "quantum" memory. The personal memory is stored in the brain, while the quantum memory is stored in the akashic or soul record. Upon physical death of the individual, the life experience is reviewed and the soul is prepared for its next set of required life experiences.

Can help us better understand the challenges facing adolescents as they experience puberty (see compassion). Like the flu and the menstrual cycle, menopause is often used as an excuse when we need a rest and yet feels unable or unwilling to speak up for self. It is also used as an excuse to under-perform or to be 'bitchy'. Those who have severe problems with menopause may have a victim or martyr mentality. Pain or discomfort can be reduced, or even completely eliminated, by just saying "No" without guilt. The uncomfortable effects of hot flashes can be reduced by paying attention to our critical or condemning thoughts. The uncomfortable effects of frequent urination can be reduced by decreasing worry (see Section 9, How to stop worrying) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Menorrhagia | Results from a legacy family pattern of cyclic emotional and/or physical abuse toward the family’s female members or its children.

See premenstrual dysphoric disorder | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Menstrual cycle | Signifies the start of a new cycle, a new way of life, or a new opportunity. Can represent recognition of our limitations, or of a pattern of fighting any change suggested by others (see defiance), refusing to go with the flow, or arguing just for the sake of being disagreeable. The cycle can be a guaranteed week or two every month when we can blame o our body instead of admitting we have needs. Like the flu and menopause, this process is often used as an excuse to under-perform or to be mean. Those who have painful cycles may have a victim or a martyr mentality. Such pain, discomfort and other effects can be reduced, or even eliminated, by not allowing self the luxury of using this as an excuse. After all, the Universal Intelligence cooperates with our desires. Some lie and say they have painful cycles even if they do not; this can arise from a desire to play on the sympathies of others, or to escape responsibilities.
