My daughter made astounding shifts at appointments with facilitators of energy healing who helped clear out and balance the electro-magnetic energy field enveloping her body. Alternative health teaches that we store unresolved emotions in our bodies. "Emotions that we have not faced, accepted nor dealt with are stored as repressed emotional energy, waiting for a future time when we can learn from them... Since they are filed in our bodies in places of which our conscious mind is not aware, they keep us reminded of their existence in a variety of negative ways. They can cause pain, illness, disease, and malfunction on any and all levels- physical, mental, social, emotional and spiritual." (David Stewart, PhD, Healing Oils of the Bible, 116-117.) Look up "Book of Life" in the book Mormon Doctrine and you'll discover that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' teachings agree. That book states, “The book of life is the record of the acts of men . . . written in their own bodies. It is the record engraven on the very bones, sinews, and flesh of the mortal body. That is every thought, word, and deed has an effect on the human body; all these leave their marks.” Scripture also contains examples of storing emotions in the body, as a chapter in my first book shows. I learned the wisdom of seeking the assistance of 'whole person health' practitioners with integrity who employ methods that release the stored energy of negative, unresolved feelings. Otherwise, these stored emotions can create energy blocks which then contribute to illness in the body. For more information check out my book Healing Arts-A Gift from God HERE
