Natural health practitioners propose that eczema
skin symptoms are not just triggered by environmental or food factors; they can
be triggered by repressed emotions. What happens is that when you have pent up
anger that you feel inside and do not find a way to release it, your body will
seek ways to release them elsewhere. An overload of repressed feelings can then
cause outbreaks that manifest as eczema skin symptoms.
Here is an analogy to help you understand the relationship between emotions and
what can be observed at the skin level. If you feel a sense of warmth and love
in you, your skin blushes and show a pinkish and radiant hue. If you feel fear
or anger, you break out in cold sweat and your skin looks flushed. Hence it goes
to show that if eczema skin symptoms show up as red and inflammed rashes, there
may well be an underlying fire fuelled by suppressed anger.
Dry skin and even cracking of your skin can be a sign of feelings of tiredness
and emotionally spent. On the other hand, overwhelming overwhelming feelings of
grief and anguish orself-hatred can result in rashes or red blemishes.
Repressed anger exerts pressure on you and you suffer from other related effects
as well. It easily triggers migraines and ulcers, and in the long term, to
strokes or tumours. Prolonged fears and repressed angers increase tensions and
stresses. You may have observed that increases in stress levels have been tied
to an increase in the intensity and frequency of your eczema outbreaks.
In fact, natural health experts propose that the first body system that reacts
to repressed anger is the gastro-intestinal or digestive system. If this is the
case, it is not hard to imagine that you will experience difficulties in
swallowing, nausea, vomitting, diarrhea, constipation, or gastric ulcer from not
letting go of your emotions. Also do bear in mind the repressed anger is the
most common cause of ulcerative colitis.
An interesting study of 128 patients in a hospital outpatient department was
conducted to determine the relationship between repressed anger and the twelve
symptoms or diseases. The study showed that among the 27 patients who suffered
eczema, eczema flared up whenever they were not able to handle the intense
frustration of being prevented from doing something or simply interfered with.
Hence, if you are keen to reduce eczema skin symptoms, then take a moment to
consider if you are also having some form of repressed anger. If you are fanning
some deep seated anger inside, then it is important to find ways to address
them. It is far better to talk to loved ones about your problems, and to find
creative ways that can help you unleash the emotions that have been suffocating
you, without your realization.
