Feelings contain information. In many respects feelings are condensed information. When this information is not worked with piece by piece, it stays held with the feelings and our bodies hold those feelings until we can receive the information.
If we don’t ever have anyone in our life who can help us to understand the information contained in our
feelings, eventually those stored feelings, which can also be called blocked energy, cause an accumulation of physical cells that aren’t able to function properly, and this becomes illness and disease.
Our culture tells us negative feelings are bad and positive feelings are good, without any understanding that all feelings contain information we need. What true healing means is collecting, understanding and bringing into the wholeness of our being, the information contained in all our feelings.
An example of how feelings contain information is when a child runs out in the street and the mother dashes out to grab the child. What information is contained in the mother’s fear?
Another example could be a child in the process of being potty trained and she pees her pants. She gets a spanking and scolding from mom. What feelings might be a part of this and what information is contained in those feelings?
