Your mind v.s. Your body- Anger v.s. Hand
Many people may have heard that your mind actually hold the key to your health. I really recommend a reference book called "Heal Your Body A-Z: The Mental Causes for Physical Illness and the Way to Overcome Them" by Louise Hay. I used to be a very weak kid. I caught a cold at least once a month even I live in sunshine Southern California. If you check this book, you will see that the cause of catching a cold is related to your compression of your true feelings. When you can't express your worry, sorrow, or even pain (in your heart), you will suffer from the cold.
Well, there are others. Just yesterday, I cut a bunch of garlic and chillies and held them in my hand. After about 5 minutes, I started to feel the burn on my fingers and paws. I cut these things many times. However, I only suffered from the burn for three times in my life. The first time was in the third year of my long-distance relationship, and the second time was in the six year of my long-d relationship ( yeah yeah, I had a 6.5 year long-d relationship. I was surreal). This is the third time of my life. Based on the discussion between my dear Grace and me, human beings hurt their hand when they create anger or even rage. If we further refer to the book I mentioned above, we conclude that feeling losing control of the situation is usually the cause of this anger or rage. Ok, I created this situation and my hand suffered from the burning and pain. What was my cause of the anger? Well, again, it's about love. I really like this guy yet he shows no interests in me. I know it sounds stupid to many people. Let me just say people do have different karma and would react to the same situation with differently. I always use this example: if you poke a crabfish and an elephant with the same toothpick, they definitely will have extremely different reactions. The elephant may not feel a thing, but the crabfish may feel like being murdered. When anything is related to love, my hear will react like a crabfish to the poke. Ok, back to my burning hand. I put my hand under the running water for 30 minutes. It didn't help much. Ok, what now? I don't feel being love and appreciated enough. So, it's about my 4th chakra (the heart chakra). If you want color theraphy for adding love, go for the color pink. If you need to increase the love energy, go for crystals in the pink color. I picked up one rose quartz and one pink calcite and hold each in each hand. After about 3 minutes, I felt the impulse of my hands. The feeling of burning was stronger. One thing I really need to declare here: if you want to get rid of some feeling, you have to experience it THOROUGHLY in order to do so. If you resist to face the pain, you are withdholing it somehow. It will still be there forever just you pretend you don't see it. Pretending not seeing it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. After about 30 minutes or so, I started to feel the pain was eased. I put down the crystals and I didn't feel the burn anymore. I said thank to my crystals from my heart and cleaned their energy afterwards.
Yeah, just want to say it again. Do clean your crystals after using them. Pamper them just like that they pamper you.
