Sickness is a pattern. A negative pattern in the body that repeats and reinforces itself due to physical, mental, emotional, psychological, spiritual and energetic reasons.
Sickness can permeate every part of your being and people who are always ill have a pattern, a seed in them that seems to grow and multiply. Often there is a duality involved where the person seeks help and then does the exact things to negate all the help they receive. So the pattern gets deeper and deeper like a groove you burn into a CD. The good thing is that, just like a CD that has been burnt wrong, you can overwrite that pattern and turn negativity and sickness into a happy, healthy lifestyle. However, it takes work.
Work needs to be done by the person who is suffering from sickness. They must want to become well. Often there are negative subconscious reasons that a good therapist can help you alter to alleviate your sickness, but you need to be prepared to change. Change can sometimes be scary. It may mean you have to give up your security of those old habits that kept you in the sickness but at the same time scared you. Often people form negative habits because they are scared. Scared of being alone, scared of not being loved, scared of not getting enough attention, scared of being unheard, scared of losing their job … fear, fear, fear. Fear and sickness go hand in hand. Letting go of your sickness may also mean you need to let go of your fear.

Often I get people here at the clinic who say they want to get healthy. We start a course of action to address their issues and sickness. They start to recover and their life starts to change, in a positive way. Then the subconscious fear sneaks in. They may realise that they will have to let go of the kids who are getting older and live their own lives; they need to stand up to grandma who invades their boundaries and marriage and calls them 7am on a Saturday morning when they are trying to sleep in; they may need to let go of trying to look after parents whose health is failing so fast they need to be in a nursing home because daughter or son is running themselves ragged trying to play nurse. We can never be more than we are. You may be great as an accountant but you cannot be the heart specialist your father needs. You may be a good mother but you can’t be the boss to give your son that new job and get him off the couch.
Sickness builds for many reasons in our lives but you can be assured that there is a pattern. It’s the way you do things, the way you think, the input you have, the program you are running. Not only in your head, but also in your heart. Often I get clients telling me they have ‘dealt with it’. They may have dealt with it mentally and intellectually and told themselves to move on but emotionally the sickness is still in their heart. The sickness of mum having died when they were only 10 and now they are 45. The sickness caused by dad coming home drunk and screaming at them, 20 years ago. The sickness of the boss bullying them at work. The sickness of their kids demanding more than they can really give and emotionally wearing them out. And so it goes on and on and people get sicker and sicker.
Break the pattern now! Move on emotionally. How? Book in to see a good therapist who can help you and teach you new tools to deal with it. Your parents can’t be your therapist, they are your parents. Your husband, your kids, your best friend, your friend at work can’t be your therapist. We all have baggage and we filter our life patterns and advice to our friends through the mix of our baggage, education, upbringing and environment. To change your pattern and get rid of your sickness you need an unbiased, new input to teach you how to do that. It’s smart thinking to see someone who has that training. So get a good counsellor, a Reiki practitioner, a massage therapist, a psychologist, a good doctor, a nutritionist – whatever it is you need to get rid of your sickness. Have the stamina to see your treatment through to the end and just watch what a wonderful new life the universe has in store for you, and your loved ones.
