Getting Angry at Disease
The energy science of Ayurveda tells us that all of Nature including ourselves are composed of vibrational frequencies or qualities These qualities are arranged into energy patterns of Vata Pitta and Kapha The Pitta energy pattern is one of transformation Anything that happens in the mindbody that requires transformation is under the guise of this energy pattern of Pitta For example, enzymes that transform a piece of broccoli into heart, brain, and lung cells are expressions of the Pitta energy pattern As you're reading this your Pitta is transforming this information and changing you in a subtle way, hopefully for the better
It's a common clinical observation that when hospitalized patients start becoming ornery that they are ready to be discharged from the hospital because they have enough energy to carry on their healing at home When people get angry, upset, irritated, or impatient they're experiencing the Pitta energy pattern Often the reason why these emotions come up is because there is too much of the vibrational frequencies of Pitta in the physiology, usually the hot quality
But we can use this energy pattern of Pitta to energize us to get off point zero and take action for healing problems in our physiologies Adding this heat to our mental framework can push us in the direction of transformation Here are 9 suggestions that we can think of...and perhaps more....to help us move to transforming our problem of the IC bladder pain syndrome into health
9 Steps to Transforming Mental Lethargy
1 Decide for yourself that a new way of doing things(energy science approach) is worth a try
2 Get angry "Im fed up with this and can't take any more of this nonsense in my life" Engage your Pitta energy to get transformative about doing something about your imbalance
3 Be ready to do the work over time to make a difference Realize that there's no quick fix Nutrition is a piece of the healing puzzle Watching out for incompatible food combinations is part of the healing puzzle It's not just one thing that produces the results you're looking for in energy science work...it's a culmination of a multiplicity of things that brings about healing of IC because all the self directed work that you is synergistic in producing a result
4 Use breath techniques to energize the physiology and improve motivation The Kapha energy pattern keeps us stuck in ruts so using breath techniques to reduce this energy pattern can be beneficial
5 Use the neti pot technique to reduce the Kapha energy pattern as in the above
6 Use nasya oil to help shift mental patterns of behavior
7 Get support to help you move along in this direction The hardest thing that people undertake in their lives is changing lifestyle behaviors that don't help them in their quest to better health Having someone to support you in making these changes can be helpful It is best not to use a friend but someone who is more at a distance so that they can be rigorous in helping change patterns of behavior
8 Avoiding distractions which often take our attention away from the healing task at hand There are so many things in our lives vying for our attention Sales at department stores, the new entries on Facebook, responding to emails The more we can reduce these distractions the more we can pay attention to the work at hand
9 Use your imagination and creativity as to how to do transformative work For example, asking yourself what you can do to motivate yourself to do healing work can lead you into areas you hadn't thought of before
