Cancer can be used as an example of a symbolic disease where blocked emotions may play a causative role along with other factors such as genetics and environmental toxins as described in the November Let Magic Happen newsletter, Symptoms as Metaphors. Similar mind-body-spirit connections can also be found with other more minor symptoms such as musculoskeletal pain, hemorrhoids, and postnasal drip. Examples from my own life are explored in this 8 minute video and listed below with symbolic causes from Louise Hay’s Heal Your Body book:
Heal Your Body: The Mental Causes for Physical Diseases and the Metaphysical Way to Overcome Them
by Louise Hay
Symptom: Symbolic cause
Lower leg pain: Not wanting to move
Hemorrhoids: Fear of deadlines
Post nasal drip: Inner crying
Face skin lesion: What we show the world
Shoulder pain: Carrying the burdens of life

If the throat chakra is functioning well there is a balanced flow of energy from the heart to the higher chakras. Caroline shares five rules for working with the will in the 5th chakra including: 1) Make no judgements; 2) Have no expectations; 3) Give up the need to know why things happen as they do; 4) Trust that the unscheduled events of our lives are a form of spiritual direction; 5) Have the courage to make the choices we need to make, accept what we cannot change, and have the wisdom to know the difference.
