No one with the IC bladder pain syndrome(interstitial cystitis, vulvodynia, chronic prostatitis, IBS, GERD, and fibromyalgia) would argue that having this chronic problem is not stressful As a matter of fact chronic disease of any form is stressful and wears on the physiology This is because living with energetic imbalances that don’t allow for the free flow of physiologic energy produces dis-ease
When one is in a state of ease everything including bodily functions becomes easy and unconscious Urinary and rectal elimination is automatic and almost taken for granted There is no disruption or alteration of consciousness because the mindbody is just humming along So stress is the opposite Small things such as going to the bathroom become monumental tasks and therefore stressful
As I’ve discussed in the past the only way to understand the mindbody as being one is to see the mind and body as both energy fields We cannot see the mind and body as intimately spliced from a molecular point of view since the mind is primarily an energy field not a molecular field
It’s not surprising then to say that the most molecular refined expression of mind is our DNA Behaviors and herbs all cause shape shifting in our DNA on a daily basis So when Canadian researchers have shown that change in DNA(see link below) occurs in cancer patients who took up a 3 month practice of meditation it’s clear that the mindbody energy connection is demonstrating itself
What this says is that reducing the stressful effects of chronic disease is important and the way we can do that is to quiet the mind for 20minutes or more daily One can choose mantra or breath awareness combining it with SoHum(so on inhalation hum on exhalation)
As I’ve discussed in the past in energy science work it’s not just one thing that you do that will bring about healing with the IC bladder pain syndrome Rather it’s a multiplicity of things that are done by the physiology in order to change the chronic imbalances that have created the symptoms Here are 4 key ingredients in a health plan that can bring about healing and recovery of IC
Meditation is a technique to quiet the mind In the course of meditation there can be lots and lots of thoughts In this setting these thoughts represent stress that needs to be released Meditation provides the context by which this stress can be released The mindbody becomes like a 4th of July sparkler with stress exuding from it
Pranayama as we talked over the last 2 weeks is not only a meditation but also improves agni of all the tissues but also helps eliminate ama
Nutrition that does not bring on more toxicity or helps support burning off toxicity is foundational
Improving and Normalizing Agni is a major part of getting our health back because in chronic illness agni always suffers
