Emotional Release How Emotions Get Stuck in the Body
Using both emotional release and Psych-K, your body and mind can be freed from negative emotions and thoughts, which can then lead to healing on a physical level in ways you never thought possible.
-Dr. Alicia Armitstead
How do you release the blocks that hold you back from creating the life you want? Not just blocks to health but blocks to joy, appreciation, and love, which should all be part of your daily life. There is a way to create the life you want and be fully satisfied with it. The purpose of wanting certain things in our lives is to create an emotion. The purpose behind our desires is to feel something. We want the new car because of how it makes us feel. We want the pretty dress because of how it makes us feel when we wear it. If you want something, you hold that desire because it is achievable; otherwise, the desire would not resonate with you.
For example, if you think you will be happier if you are skinnier, there are specific steps to take. Eat healthily, exercise more, and you should start to see results. If you want love, you look for someone to love you. If we want joy, we look for fun events we enjoy. But emotions are not created outside of ourselves. We create them. Our body has a physical reaction that then stimulates our brain to have specific thoughts and emotions. Thoughts create emotions, emotions give us feelings, and feelings create our reality. This is how you can become what you want to attract by being aware of the thoughts that lead to the emotions you desire, so you can experience the reality you want.
Thoughts don’t rise out of thin air. Your body has a response first. This is the mind-body connection. Our thoughts are a result of biochemical reactions occurring inside us. The decision about what becomes a thought rising to consciousness and what remains an undigested thought pattern stuck at a deep level in the body is mediated by cell receptors. Dr. Eric Kandel at Columbia University has demonstrated that biochemical changes at the cell receptor level are the molecular basis of thought.
Candace Pert was a scientist who discovered the opioid receptor on brain cells, which is the binding site for endorphins. Her work helped us understand the mind-body connection and the role that stress plays in our health. Endorphins are molecules found throughout the body and brain, constantly sharing information. Endorphins are a specific group of molecules, known as neuropeptides, that affect our minds and emotions. The body produces other peptides that serve as messengers for the immune system, digestion, and various other functions. In this way, the cells of the body communicate simultaneously.
Neuropeptides were thought to be only in the brain and nerves, but Tomaas Hokfeldt, a Swedish scientist, showed that neuropeptides were not only found in the nerves and brain but also in the cells of the organs. Emotions can either enhance or suppress the immune system through the release of neuropeptides. Since our cell receptors stimulate thought, which gives rise to emotion, we needed a technique to help regulate negative emotions. I was delighted when I discovered an emotional release technique that helps release negative emotions from the body.
Emotions are constantly regulating what we experience as reality. The decision about which sensory information travels to your brain and which gets filtered out depends on the signals the receptors receive from the peptides. If peptides become stuck in the body, your biochemistry can react in a way that is disproportionate to the actual situation. We have all had situations where we know we are overreacting. We can’t help ourselves, and that is true. The body reacts, and you are the victim of your emotional reaction. This is the science of being triggered.
If you are easily triggered, have a situation that is triggering, or stress in your life that feels overwhelming, then you can benefit from emotional release. If you have PTSD, you can benefit from emotional release because the reason you are in post-traumatic stress is that you have a lot of peptides stuck in your body, and there is a lot of triggering going on, overwhelming both your mind and your body. To help remove stuck peptides from the body, we use magnets. We first use muscle testing to identify which emotion is stuck in the body. We have homeopathic vials containing 90 different emotions.
Once the emotion(s) are identified, one magnet is placed on the organ where it is stuck while I run the other magnet down the spine to reset the nervous system. When the nervous system is reset, neuropeptides are released at the cellular level. Patients feel less anxious and less depressed, have a sense of clarity and calm, overall general well-being, and can sleep better after emotional release.
We look for outside stimuli for love and joy, thinking that they are the reason we feel a certain way, but it is truly our biochemistry that causes the feeling. Yes, the stimulus helps our body react in a certain way, but what if we have more control over our feelings than we think? What if we can stimulate our biochemistry to be in states of joy and peace? What if we can give ourselves the love we are looking for?
If we want to experience more of a particular emotion, we need to learn how to cultivate it. If you want more love in your life, learn to love yourself. If you want more joy, be more joyful. If you want more respect, learn to respect yourself. Now, money is not an emotion, but it is an energy in motion in a different way. If you want more money, think of yourself as if you already have it. Money is just an energy that needs to flow. If you have it, comfortably spend it in good judgment, and more will come to you. Do not hoard it out of fear. The stagnation kills its energy.
Learn to become that which you want. Once you hold the energy of love, joy, money, or anything else you desire, you will attract a situation or person that embodies it, for like attracts like.
The emotional release technique works on the organs and the neuropeptides, but what if it is our thoughts that are stuck? Our thoughts can bring health to a sick body, and they can also bring disease to a healthy body. Suppose your thoughts are not in alignment with the life you want to create. In that case, Psych-K is a technique that changes beliefs through muscle testing, identifies which beliefs are holding you back, and utilizes neurological exercises to alter how neurons fire in your brain. Healing with Psych-K is when that inner voice that used to tear you down is now the voice that lifts you. If you have a negative inner voice, then you will benefit from Psych K.
Using both emotional release and Psych-K, your body and mind can be freed from negative emotions and thoughts, which can then lead to healing on a physical level in ways you never thought possible. If happiness eludes you daily, then try these techniques to remove whatever blocks are hindering you from the joy and health you deserve.
