Emotional Memory Storage

[Guest guest]

I am hoping for suggestions to sources of information on two similar subjects.

First is a reference that may list what types of emotions may be stored in

certain muscle groups. Example: when you have shoulder stiffness it is a

precursor to respiratory problems, but it may also be anxiety or fear.

 

The next question is information relating to the life nerve and the sex nerve

(and a list of others) and what they do and how we should keep them healthy with

exercises and what are indications when something is wrong with them. Any books,

websites etc. would be helpful if you already have done this searching.

Dear David,

 

Louise Hay is famous for putting together this kind of information. But

personally, in my healing practice I find that using this one size fits all

approach can be quite misleading. The client can obsess about it and it never

really seems to get to the truth of the matter. It works sometimes, but in my

opinion there is not enough detail to really be uselful, and sometimes that

information is quite different from what is actually the cause of their

difficulty.

 

Here are two things that I prefer to do:

 

1. In a meditative state, looking at your third eye and breathing deeply, relax

completely, and let your Soul, your consciuosness whisper the root of their

difficulty to you. Check with your client to see if that " rings a bell with

them. " Don't just tell them that this is the case.

 

2. Ask you client to close their eyes and relax into long, deep breathing. When

you see that they are relaxed and " not in their head " ask them what color (of

energy) is at that painful or tight spot. It is usually dark or black. Then

let them know that that stuck energy has a voice. Ask them what the emotion of

that energy is, and finally what does that stuck energy wants to say. Be slow

and patient with this. At this point, your client can go into deeper healing

using your modality as the cause and remedy unfold, or you can give them kriyas

and meditations to change that energy, to heal it.

 

Now, I am so sorry to say that the teachings have not yet been completely

systemitized to be able to retrieve just the right Kriyas or meditations,

although I understand that you can perform searches at kriteachings.org , I

believe.

 

Every blessing in your healing, Dear!

 

Lots of Love,

David,

 

There is a rich tapestry of information relating to emotional-muscular

" storage " , or shielding in the body. Obviously massage work is one of the first

and most obvious practices that addresses this commonplace physiological

condition.

 

Storage, shielding or, more more appropriately " binding " occurs at the muscular

level when as muscles tighten due to stress and emotional tension. Tension

causes collagen fibers between the muscles to actually grow together and form

connective tissue cross-links; where normally the strands of muscle would slide

across each other, they now have bridged connections that prevent them from

moving smoothly as before. This is what is called physical " armoring " - a form

of emotional protection - which in turn, due to the growth of tension and pain,

continues to cyclically cause further armoring and damage to the body as it

worsens.

 

Yogic Neuromuscular Therapy, a system originated by Nate Shulman & Mark Lamm,

and refined and developed to its current state by Dyal Singh Khalsa, is one of

the first (in our branch of yoga) to directly and immediately work right at the

source of the connective binding. Through deep tissue release of the binding

fibers, deep emotional healing begins.

 

In this system of NMT, there is a sufficient amount of attention focused on the

related causes which are creating these symptoms of pain or discomfort. This is

not the only system to develop these relations, but there are some guidelines in

NMT to certain underlying causes.

 

The shoulders for example, specifically, the musculature between the shoulder

itself and the neck (the trapezius area) relates to responsibility, or the

taking on of too much by oneself (almost literally like Atlas, carrying too much

on ones shoulders). Moving up to the area right behind the neck (C7 Cervical

Vertebrae area), is related to feelings of disconnection. It can also relate to

the 5th chakra and blockages there dealing with communication. Moving down to

the shoulder blade area, in the upper back and nearby, we are discussing

childhood abandonment issues and childhood trauma.

 

Also important to note is that the left side is related to the feminine and

spiritual issues. The right side is related to the masculine and material

concerns.

 

This is just a scratch on the surface. I would recommend a book in our system by

Yogi Bhajan and Waheguru Singh Khalsa called " The Miracle of Healing Hands " as a

great place to start learning more.

 

As for your questions on the sex nerve and life nerves, I don't have that

information at hand, but I will see what I can do to get back to you with more

at a later date. My first and most obvious recommendation for keeping them

healthy is keeping an alkaline diet, and practicing forward bends, forward

bends, and more forwards bends (and throw in some plow poses in there for good

measure). When you do splits, elevate the spinal column as much as needed, and

bend from the hips and not the back.

 

The key concept here is that the little joints and muscles pay for the sins of

the big ones. So, it's always more productive to work the bigger core muscles:

back, legs, psoas, life nerve, sex nerve, hips and spine.

 

Hope that helps.

 

Yours with blessings,

Fateh Singh

Sat Nam David,

 

When, I posted on my choking problems, I got several paragraphs sent to me

referring to this book, they were really accurate, as to the family I grew up in

and what was happening. I highly recommend this book.

 

Dr. Narayan's book

 

Messages from the Body " - created by Michael J Lincoln (aka Dr. Narayan Singh). 

http://messagesfromthebody.com/

 

A description of the interaction of physical, emotional, mental, symbolic and

sacred processes as they precipitate outcomes in the form of diseases, disorders

and disruptions. There then follows a dictionary of the psychological and

sometimes sacred meanings of hundreds of disturbances ranging from sneezes to

cancer. In addition, there is an extensive section on the meanings of a number

of body structures and characteristics.

 

Heal Your Back Now! & #8232;Nirvair Singh Khalsa

 

Explanations of the emotional causes of back pain, vertebra by vertebra,

http://www.kundalini-yoga-info.com/kundalini_yoga_books_H-I.html

 

Both books were very helpful, in understanding, and in using the 3-min a round,

meridian finger tapping, EFT at www.emofree.com free pdf manual
