ALL ABOUT EMOTIONAL HEALING




The word “emotional healing” might sound dramatic but it is a common process which we ought to practice and go through. As the life of ours is an expert in throwing us into unexpected situations at unexpected times, to survive it all emotional healing is a must.




Loss of loved ones, failed relationships, broken friendships, family issues, sickness, financial crisis, termination of a job, betrayal, backstabbing, any of these could get anyone broken.







Just like when we get physically hurt, we put on a band-aid, apply some ointment and give the wound some time to get healed, when we are emotionally hurt, we have to do the necessaries for it to get healed, and yes, of course, time plays the main role here too.




In this, we will read about how emotional pain leads to physical pain, what to do to heal us emotionally, and also the signs to find whether we are getting healed or not.



EMOTIONAL PAIN LEADS TO PHYSICAL PAIN:


Well, it might be shocking to know that emotional pain has the power to give us physical pain, but unfortunately, it is true. Emotional pain from any of those life situations which I mentioned in the intro part, (or it can be something else too) when bottled up inside as secrets become emotional blocks.





The most common reason we don’t say it out to anyone is because of our defense mechanism: It tries to prevent us from getting judged or looked down on. Or something we can’t find the right words to express our pain and sufferings, so we hide it from others.








The unexpressed emotions get trapped inside our body and drain our energy and also leads to emotional imbalance, burnouts. It gets stored in our muscles, organs, and tissues and eventually leads to inflammations, chronic health problems. ( all biological terms, right? yeah, I know )



Dr. Bradley Nelson, a renowned holistic physician says that “90% of the pain that the body feels is due to trapped emotions”.
