Arthritis and Joint Pain

Joint blockages or swelling usually speak to the emotion of guilt, shame or regret that is being held in the system.One case study that particularly stands out was a gentleman who complained about carpal tunnel, tennis elbow and runner's knee. I looked at him and simply said, "guilt". Again he confirmed to me, "No. I have carpal tunnel, tennis elbow and runner's knee". I explained that he could give it any name he chose, but in reality, his body was trying to get him to look at the guilt he harbored in his system. After three long layers of the flower essence, Pine, his pains in all his joints began to disappear. He is pain free in these areas today. Although at that time he was unable to understand his guilt, as we worked further on his layers, the issues he was dealing with began to be revealed, and he began to understand how he patterned his negative emotions.

Sometimes it is difficult to feel the difference between joint pain or ligament pain. Each is unique to the issue that needs to be addressed. But the flower essence Pine is the flower used mainly for the issues of guilt, which will manifest in the joint. In order to heal guilt, one must begin to speak in innocence. People who are professionals in the emotion of guilt usually feel bad if they cannot accommodate other's wishes. They are people pleasers. When a person who harbors guilt in his system feels bad that they are unable to do something for others, they must remind themselves that it is okay not to be able to do everything for everyone. We can also harbor guilt over old issues that were never healed or forgiven from the past. This is where the bigger manifestations of arthritis may begin to manifest. As these old issues reveal themselves to you through the memory cells, it is important to forgive yourself for past mistakes and behaviors. It is time to stop judging ourselves and instead learn from our old experiences. It is only through this behavior that we can grow and change, which is ultimately what we are all here to do anyway.

Circulatory issues can be attached to guilt as well because those who do guilt powerfully usually attach worry to these same issues. For further information on Circulation, visit this section of our "Healing Physical Symptoms". Magnesium helps to nourish the skeletal system. And yet magnesium can be difficult to absorb when the digestive system is not working properly. Foods that aggravate the digestive system should be eliminated from the diet. These foods are always consistently the same including fried food, hydrogenated oils, pork, cow dairy products, city water, artificial ingredients including colors, preservatives and sweeteners, oranges and orange juice as well as caffeine and chocolate, refined white sugars and flours.Supplements that have proven helpful for joint health include flaxseed oils (which can be taken in capsule or liquid form) or omega 3 fish oils. Both of which can help to lubricate the joints. Ground flax seeds, pumpkin seeds and lecithin granules help to break down accumulated matter in the body. Greek or Italian extra virgin olive oils should be used daily as your oil of choice.

A deficiency of magnesium and/or calcium can be attached to this imbalance as well, so eating foods high in these nutrients is essential. These foods include sesame seeds, poppy seeds, almonds, bitter leafy greens and dark green herbs. A supplement high in magnesium may also prove very helpful.Burdock Root is an herbal cleanser, which helps to eliminate matter that has become stuck in the body during the elimination process.There are two tissue salts that prove helpful in matters of inflammation. One is Natrum Phosphate, which is the acid neutralizer of the body. An acid state of the blood can aggravate rheumatism, lumbago, fibrosistis and associated joint ailments. The tissue salt Ferrum Phosphate is the oxygen carrier of the body and is useful for any ailment related to inflammatory pain.

The most important thing we can do for healthy joints is to cleanse our joints during the summer months when the berries and cherries are in full season. The dark blue and black colors of berries and cherries speak to the cleansing action of the fruit and help to disperse any matter we may have accumulated during the winter months. When out of season, black cherry or blueberry juice can be used as a joint cleanser.

One cream that I have seen help people handle the pain as they heal has been Natures Plus "Glucosamine Chondroitin with MSM cream. It can be applied directly on the area where the pain is focussed. Glucosamine Chondroitin with MSM is also available in supplement form, which can be taken internally. Finally, make sure that you are drinking 4-6 cups of pure water daily to help the body cleanse itself. Water should be consumed as follows: 1 cup upon awakening to re-hydrate the system and 1 cup before each meal to flush the system.
