Rheumatoid Arthritis According to Germanic Healing Knowledge (GHK)
Conflict Basis:
Rheumatoid arthritis is linked to self-esteem conflicts or feelings of devaluation tied to specific parts of the body. The nature of the affected joint corresponds to the perceived failure or self-worth issue in a particular area of life. For example:
- Hands: Feeling inadequate or clumsy in work or personal tasks.
- Feet: A conflict of “not walking away” or feeling stuck in a situation.
Phases of the Biological Special Program (SBS):
- Conflict-Active Phase:
- The joint experiences tissue degradation as the body adapts to the emotional conflict.
- Symptoms may be mild or unnoticed during this phase.
- Healing Phase:
- Once the conflict is resolved, the tissue undergoes regeneration, leading to inflammation, swelling, and pain as part of the repair process.
- The intensity and duration of symptoms depend on the severity of the conflict and its resolution.
Examples:
- A teacher suffering from polyarthritis resolves a conflict related to her controlling mother during wedding preparations, leading to the healing phase symptoms in her knee.
- A tile layer, constantly torn between perfectionism and tight deadlines, develops arthritis in his hands and feet due to repeated self-devaluation conflicts.
Key Insights:
- Recurring Conflicts: Chronic or recurring self-esteem issues may cause repeated cycles of inflammation, leading to joint deformation over time.
- Healing Crisis: Acute episodes, or “attacks,” indicate active repair processes, which can be supported through emotional resolution.
Therapeutic Approach:
- Resolve Emotional Conflicts: Identify and address the specific self-devaluation triggers.
- Guidance for Resolution: Use affirmations such as “I trust myself” or “I am strong” to rebuild self-worth.
- Support During Healing: Gentle movement, dietary adjustments, and natural anti-inflammatory remedies like CBD oil or herbal compresses can aid in managing symptoms during the repair phase.
Rheumatoid arthritis, as per GHK, is not an inevitable degenerative condition but a meaningful biological response to emotional stress. Healing occurs when the emotional roots are addressed, and the body’s natural processes are supported.
