Healing emotions and feelings

Posted on Apr 8, 2013 in Healing

Unprocessed emotions – those you suppress, deny, or hide – don’t simply disappear. They stay lodged in the physical and subtle energy bodies, often settling into the tissues, muscles, or organs. Over time, this emotional stagnation can manifest as physical discomfort, chronic tension, or even illness.

Modern somatic wisdom and ancient spiritual teachings agree: emotions are energy in motion. If you don’t allow them to move, they become stuck. The most powerful way to clear these energies is not to analyse or suppress them, but to feel them fully and allow the body to release them in its own natural rhythm.

If, like me, you’re primarily an intuitive Tarot reader and tend to avoid the older decks, this book will open up a whole new avenue of appreciation and interpretation for you.

I’ll be honest and say that it’s not the easiest, lightest read in the world. The author, Christine Payne-Towler, is a serious Tarot researcher and scholar of many years and this is apparent immediately just by the size of the book. It looks like a text book and almost demands to be laid open on a desk and pored over intently, not curled up with casually on a sofa (although I did take the latter approach occasionally with the result of aching arms)!
