One gentleman called up. He shared that daily he gets stomach pain. So after taking so many medicines and visiting so many doctors, he visited a hypnotherapist. There he realized that he was extremely anger at his mother for sending him to the hostel. He loved his mother and did not want to leave her. But his mother was working and all the time he was clinging, so she sent him away, which fuelled his fears and made him very angry. Over the years of unresolved anger, he started developing stomach issues.
His business did not work for 10 years. They saw a very tough time. But he developed a fear. His business finally worked. But he kept having fear. He was feeling angry at his brother because his brother had kicked him out of family business. He shared that daily he cant sleep out of fear, that fear leads to anger against his brother and daily he wakes up groggy. He has body ache and head ache. Over few years, this has become kind of ailment as he is contracting some hypertension issues. Doctor has asked him to relax or else he would be permanently on medicines.
Her husband cheated on her, when she was busy giving birth to their child and raising child for him. She was less available physically and emotionally. (I have seen lots of extra marital affairs happening at that time). Everyday, she slept cursing herself, her life and her husband. One day, when she woke up, she realized her eyes looked dark, her head looked balder and she realized her kids were also living with a distance as she was always snapping at them.
There could be any reason for being angry and we may be justified for that. Our loved ones might have wronged us. But holding onto anger is like, someone, threw away trash at our home and we keep holding onto that saying he threw it. Because it is at our home, it becomes our responsibility to clean it up. Or else, it would make our home dirty, rotten and eventually we would get affected. We would have to live with the stink and finally many diseases will erupt because we did not clean up the home. We need to clean up . the home. Same way, we need to clean up the mind or else whole body would stink and we would get many diseases.
What do we do to do that? take a decision to forgive and move on. take a decision that life would pass justice not us. Take a decision to focus on future not repeat past in mind and revisit it everyday. Take a decision to be grateful.
