In our Western culture we generally separate emotions from the body; however, modern science has helped us realize that nothing can be discussed in isolation. Everything is connected through energy. More than five thousand years ago, high-level spiritual masters had already discovered this principle of the inseparability of body, mind and soul through spiritual technology. They downloaded the Five Element Consciousness Framework and the amazing blueprint of Nature’s elements, organs and associated emotions, as well as other correspondences.
Although Eastern and Western cultures use the same vocabulary for ‘mind’ and ’emotions’, the TCM concept is different. Your mind is like a gun, but it’s your emotions that pull the trigger. Your mind digests and processes your thoughts as emotions. Sometimes these emotions are hidden in the body; sometimes they are visible on the body in the form of physical conditions. It is easy to identify which emotion is involved in a condition by looking at the related organ in the Five Elements Consciousness Framework.
If an emotion is experienced excessively or chronically, it will unbalance the function of the associated organ. If you continually worry, you will eventually see a change in your stomach function. If relentless stress is part of your life, your liver function will falter. If you constantly feel anxious or respond to anxiety-driven messages, your kidney function will eventually become depleted. And, depending on the severity of these problems, so do other body structures related to these organs.
Also remember that energy flows in both directions. The physical problem of an organ has the power to influence the associated emotion. If these energetic frequencies of emotions can influence physical functions, we need to talk about metabolic function in a different way. We must consider the mechanism by which these frequencies affect the body. The physical body is a 3D screen that shows the state of metabolic function. It will also show whether or not the more comprehensive concept of metabolic function works.
