Pancreas
The pancreas is an organ of metabolism: it forms digestive enzymes and the hormone insulin, which regulates the blood sugar. At the Kyborg Institute we additionally read the organ on an energetic-symbolic level via the 3rd chakra.
The 3rd chakra – how we read it
The 3rd chakra we connect with strength, self-assertion and the element of fire – that is, with the theme of putting one’s own energy to good use. In our symbolic reading, themes around power, pressure and self-worth invite us to look at our own balance. We understand this as an inner image: metabolic illnesses arise physically and are medically researched and treated. No one is “to blame themselves” for an illness.
Calm and composure
Many people find it good to bring more calm into their life – through meditation, breathing exercises or relaxation. That supports general well-being and reduces stress.
What does that mean in practice?
- With diabetes, which as a chronic illness is under medical care anyway, do not discontinue prescribed medication (e.g. insulin) on your own initiative.
- A calmer rhythm of life does good.
- Clarify questions about diet and lifestyle with a dietitian.
