Rheumatism
Rheumatism is a collective term for many illnesses that go along with pain and restrictions of movement in joints, muscles and connective tissue – chronic conditions that should be treated by a rheumatologist early anyway. At the Kyborg Institute we consider the theme additionally on a soul-related level.
Our reading
In our reading, we read rheumatism symbolically as a hardening and tension of the organism – and sometimes of the inside too. Themes such as lasting bitterness, a lack of attention (at times already from childhood) or the difficulty of letting go and yielding can resonate in this image. From our spiritual view, with some people experiences from earlier lives play into it too. No one is “to blame themselves” for a rheumatic illness.
What does that mean in practice?
- Relaxation methods, a benevolent basic attitude and a loving environment can do good.
- Attend to a balanced diet.
