Duodenum
The duodenum is the first section of the small intestine, directly following the stomach. Here the food is mixed with digestive juices. At the Kyborg Institute we consider complaints in this region additionally in soul-related terms, expressly as a personal, worldview-based view.
Our reading
In our reading, complaints here can point to someone engaging with the outer world with difficulty and suffering under annoyance, stress, haste or criticism – and to this pressure then reinforcing itself. We understand this as an invitation to come to rest and gain distance from everyday problems, for instance through yoga or autogenic training. That is a sensitive observation, no claim about causes and no attribution of blame.
What does that mean in practice?
- Have complaints in the upper abdomen clarified by a doctor – ulcers belong in treatment.
- See to relaxation and distance, defuse sources of stress.
Note: This article renders a personal, worldview-based view and is not medical advice. It replaces no medical diagnosis or treatment. For health questions please turn to a doctor or pharmacy; do not discontinue prescribed medication on your own initiative.
