Primary Lymphedema

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone Anne Marie here,

One of my students has Primary Lymphedema her system plugs up,(her words not

mine) and her body holds on to the lymphatic fluids. Can anyone suggest any

good poses or breathing that would be beneficial to her? Sat Nam Anne Marie.

Dearest Anne Marie

 

this is typical - nearly nobody knows something about lymphedema. I really know

it because I have the same problem. I think a lot of breathwork would be good,

walking... and don't give up the trust into selfhealing.

Dear Sonja and Anne Marie,Hi, I do not know about any kundalini yoga exercises

but have you heard of a technique called lymphatic drainage? I strictly trained

therapist (usually a massage therapist that is an energy worker as well) uses

specific hand movemets to manually push the fluid and help drain it. It moves

10-20 liters i think, compared to the usual 2 a body would move by itself during

the course of a day. I am not sure if it is liters or what but i remember the

numbers. I was having it dont to help my system after i was in bed for three

monthes with a terrible case of pneumonia. the therapist working on me told me

it is also taught to people who hvae no lymph tissue and must work manually

veryday on the areas without the lympht tissue. It is very light and calculated

work. Maybe this would help. -jennifer-

Sat Nam Anne Marie,

There are many KY sets that work on the Lymphatics. Do you have

'Transitions to a

Heart Centered World

<cgi-bin/htmlos.cgi/00953.1.4488823347210940087>"

? (see

cgi-bin/start.cgi/store/shop.html?showcat=p or

 

cgi-bin/htmlos.cgi/00953.1.4371554370510940087)

There are a number of good sets in this book.

Lymphatic system has been correlated with the watery emotions

whether here or in our psychic relations. The sadness, the remorse and

also self-pity. "Self pity is a form of defensiveness as a way of

denying desires. The idea of powerlessness to cause change." To improve

or remedy the situation she needs to give, with passion, so that she may

create and fulfill her desires. This is the change in action that will

create a permanent healing and not simply temporary relief from the

symptoms. She needs to create clear mental images of her needs and

directing effort toward them with her will. We control our environment

by giving freely without condition or thoughts of being owed something

in return.

She can expand her sense of free will and capacity for choice and

with a good set and meditation. A number of sets for Lymphatics require

very powerful and rapid motions. I want to stress that part of any set

she or you choose. If in the description it says moving quickly, it

means damn near as quickly as humanly possible!! That's how the

lymphatics like to be worked and that's how Yogiji has taught it.

Sat Nam,

Dharam

Dearest Jennifer,

 

yes, I know it, but it didn't help anything.

It could be fine to get these treatments for some people, because they are

really soft and I know a lot of

people like it.

 

I had some really bad experiences with the doctor who was the founder of

lymphatic drainage. I was 19 years

young, when the symptom slowly came. And I lived near his hospital. So I

thought: Oh, I am lucky! My uncle told

me about this possibility and of course I went there full of hope, without any

doubt and no thought, that I

could have this symptom perhaps for the rest of my life.

 

This doctor told me: Come here, you will get a lot of treatments, one or two

every day and after four weeks

everything will be fine. Hahaha (hello Sat Sangeet :-) nothing was fine. It was

the same as before. And this

doctor said, he knew that before and I have to live with it. The result: I lost

my faith into doctors.

 

The good thing was, I learned a lot about healing techniques and I work with

other people to help them on their

way to more health.

 

Years ago I went to a second hospital, sometimes three times a week, early in

the morning, before I had to work

with handicaped people. And I felt much more ill at that time, because I went to

hospital, got a treatment, it

doesn't help anything, I had to come again some days later... and it doesn't

help again... I saw all these

people who were ill... again and again... At that time I often was very sad and

sometimes really depressed,

because I was a young and pretty woman, who was never ill until that time. And

now I had such a big problem. No

shoes, no clothes... I am grateful, because I am strong and my real face isn't

sadness, I love to laugh and to

have fun and I enjoy my life anyway.In the meantime I prefer to do yoga and

meditation, and I walk a lot with

our dog.

 

One big problem - the biggest perhaps! - with this symptom is really your inner

hopelessness and a kind of

weakness, you can't imagine, that you have enough power to heal yourself, and so

it's not easy to stay with

your yoga practice or anything else, because you want to see a result.

Immediatly! And I never saw only a

little result! Even if you know and tell everybody else: selfhealing is the only

way... in your own case it's

really hard to believe it and don't give up. I hope, I can do my yoga exercises

and meditations more and more

without thinking: I do it, because I want to heal this problem as quick as

possible. Instead of that I should

just do it regulary, because my soul knows and feels it is good for the whole

person. And perhaps one day

physical healing is a wonderful side effect. Then as a grandmother I will wear

leather trousers, short skirts,

bootees and other funny things...

 

Thank you for your advice, dearest Jennifer and blessings to you and all in this

group
