Healing The Body With Light
Imagine for a moment that you are at the end of your ropes. You're feeling completely drained and exhausted from the endless cycle of blood, chemo, and cancer treatments that you've been undergoing. No longer able to take the pain of being sick anymore, you finally decide to do what any self-respecting person would do in this situation? Sleep!
Though sleep is so easy these days with all of our technology involved in it, we often overlook its potential healing capabilities. When we sleep our body is actively healing itself. We are more than likely to awaken with renewed energy and clarity; yet, this healing process is subtle. The physical body works to restore itself while you sleep. The emotional body works on releasing and clearing away the trapped emotionals that are no longer serving you.
The mind is also active at night, sorting through the day's events and memories clearing out all of the distractions that might have interfered or distracted us from focusing on a certain subject or situation. This sorting process usually happens during the REM cycle, an acronym for rapid eye movement, which is when most of our dreaming occurs.
There is a saying that goes along these lines: "The eyes are the windows to the soul." The eyes are a gateway to our inner self. They not only are the windows to our souls, but they also hold the ability to correlate with other parts of our bodies. Our eyes are the windows of the body. By looking into our eyes, we are connecting with our bodies and we can see how they connect to what is happening in our lives.
Each emotion has a corresponding organ. In the same way that we can see and feel emotion with our eyes, so too can we see and feel with other parts of our bodies when examining the eyes. The iris of your eye holds a high level of sensitivity to what is going on inside of you. It reveals your emotions. It tells a story. Your eyes reveal your true, whole self. The eyes are the mirror of the soul and as such reveal everything that is inside of you, not just on the surface.
This is also true for cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy treatment. Chemotherapy drugs are highly toxic to cells, causing major cellular damage. Blood cells in particular are targeted as they are the building blocks of life. Of course every cell in our body is important for our survival, but blood cells especially so. When these cells are damaged, it compromises our ability to make healthy red blood cells. The result is low red blood cell count, or anemia. Finding an appropriate treatment for cancer is important, but finding a treatment that kills cancer without causing major damage to healthy tissue can be very challenging.
