The meaning of symptoms
Body, mind, and soul are inextricably linked, forming one entity. It is a simple fact that psychological symptoms affect the body, and physical symptoms affect the soul. A toothache affects the whole person, not just the tooth. The same is true of back pain and sleep disorders, which can alter your mood and overall well-being.
Not understanding the meaning of physical symptoms causes stress and helplessness. This disconnect is common in our Western, success-driven lifestyle, where the will is believed to dominate the body. Treating the body as a machine to be repaired offers only short-term relief and is ineffective in the long-term. True wellness is achieved when all parts of our being are in balance and harmony.
Harmony between body, mind and soul initiates a feeling of strength and silence.
Symptom constellations are the key to understanding what the body is trying to tell us through symptoms. This method helps to uncover the messages behind symptoms and empowers individuals to take meaningful action. It links symptoms to a person's life, providing insights into chronic symptoms, illnesses, functional complaints and major health events like cancer or heart attacks.
By grouping symptoms together, new perspectives emerge, showing clear steps to take next. This method allows you to test how actions affect the system, including the symptom, offering an external view of the symptom and circumstances. It links the symptoms to the person's life, providing helpful insights into long-term issues like chronic symptoms, illnesses, functional complaints, and major health events like cancer or heart attacks.
Consequently, this approach enhances the effectiveness of additional treatments and helps people take an active role in their healing process.
