  • Why does the body return to the position of injury in order to release?

    + Why does the body return to the position of injury in order to release? – November 05

    Hi John
    I have a question. In SER the body often returns
    to the position of injury either emotional or
    physical in order to release the disease (energy
    cyst) held there.  This fits perfectly with the
    founding law of Homoeopathy “like cures like’ or
    similia similibus curentur.  But I can find no
    written explanation for why this law is a law!
    What is your experience of why the body holds to
    this?. Or does it always?
    Thank you.

    >>>MY COMMENTS:

    The principal of ‘like curing like’ is the same
    in cranio sacral therapy and homoeopathy but the
    mechanics of how the ‘curing’ happens are
    different for each.

    During cranio sacral therapy the body goes to
    the position it was in when the trauma occurred so
    that it can reconnect with its underlying
    energetic blueprint.

    But hang on, I’m getting ahead of myself.
    Let’s talk about the blueprint for a minute.

    Why do plants, trees, animals etc. grow into
    the shape they do?   How do the cells in a bone
    know to become bone cells?
    Currently we are told that the answers to these
    questions lie in the mysteries of DNA.

    DNA is very cool stuff and remarkable in its
    own right. But in time, the limitations of DNA
    will reveal themselves.  The genome will be mapped
    better than Manhattan and these questions will
    remain unanswered.

    What has yet to be proven is that when a seed
    is planted it starts to unfold an energetic
    outline or blueprint of the shape it will grow
    into and the cells migrate in accordance to the
    blueprint.  DNA is the executive of this process
    and responds to the blueprint.

    Think iron fillings, magnet, paper.  The magnet
    (Blueprint) influences the iron filling (Cells) to
    form into a particular shape, the shape of the
    magnet.  You may not be able to see the magnet
    because it is hidden behind the paper but you know
    what shape it is by the shape the iron filing are
    forming.

    Most of the older traditions have identified
    different expressions of the blueprint and
    represent it in different ways.

    In traditional Chinese medicine there are the
    meridians. In Ayurvedic medicine there are the
    charkas.  In Toltec or Mexican shamanism there
    are what are called the feathers of the eagle.

    The botanist, Rupert Sheldrake has been talking
    about this kind of stuff for years, he describes
    it in terms of morphic fields.

    When a person’s system gets traumatised, the
    cells may be displaced but they return to their
    original position under the influence of the
    underlying blueprint.

    As they do this, they have a particular
    movement which thankfully for us, is palpable.
    The whole process goes to make up the auto repair
    mechanism we call a release.

    When the trauma won’t release it’s because the
    blueprint itself has been bent out of shape.

    We learned early on, that given the right
    support a body will start to move of it’s own
    volition.  If we can follow this movement and
    know when to hold it, we may be able to facilitate
    a release.

    That initial movement is the cells of the body
    looking for the blue print.  When the persons body
    returns to the position where the trauma occurred,
    the cells and the blueprint reconnect.  It’s at
    this point that all the different manifestations
    of release can occur, pulsations, trembling,
    shaking, sweating, crying, laughing and that’s not
    to mention what goes on for the patient.

    Couldn’t resist.

    Once the cells and blueprint reconnect then the
    whole system, cells and blueprint, come back into
    alignment and harmony.

    So as I said it’s a process of re-collection.

    Not all bodies need to go into the traumatic
    position to release.  Sometimes restriction
    patterns are very ripe for release and need very
    little support to complete the process.

    I’ve also found over the years that as I’ve
    gotten better at working with the blueprint,
    deeper subtleties have revealed themselves.
    I find more releases are happening at deeper
    levels and require less gross movements on the
    surface.

    Back to the homoeopathic question.  As you know,
    I’m not a homoeopath but I do know some great ones.
    So I went and checked with one of them to see if my
    suspicions about how the mechanics of ‘like curing
    like’ are different between cranio sacral and homoeopathy,
    and she confirmed what I thought.

    With homoeopathy, the remedy caries an
    energetic signature that causes the whole
    energetic structure in the system to change.

    So going back to the magnet and iron filings
    analogy, I’ll explain the difference in mechanics
    that I spoke about in the beginning.

    If a square shaped magnet gets bent out of
    shape on one side.  What cranio sacral does is
    collect all the iron filings on that side and help
    them to ‘find’ the bent shape and collect it,
    allowing it to return to its original state of
    squareness.

    With homeopathy a magnet that is normally red
    has become blue.  The homeopath identifies the
    remedy the magnet needs.  Blue.  They know this
    because in the proving of the remedy many healthy
    red magnets were given this remedy and they all
    started demonstrating blue symptoms.  So the blue
    magnet is given the blue remedy and the whole
    composition of the magnet starts to change.
    Eventually the magnet returns to its natural state
    of red.

    Who said two wrongs don’t make a right.
