Allergies

Allergies give us important clues about memories of an unprocessed separation. An allergic reaction is directly related to the memory of stress due to separation. The subconscious links the moment of crisis to one or more elements present in the environment at the time. For instance, a person may be allergic to milk products because of an abrupt separation from the mother as an infant. An allergy to gluten may relate to a memory of separation in which wheat or bread was present in the immediate environment at the moment of shock. For example, parents have a fight before dinner starts while their daughter is eating bread at the table. The child witnesses her father leave and the resulting emotional trauma is connected to gluten from that day forward. Similarly, the following story offers a vivid example of how an allergy to cat hair can take root based on a separation conflict.                                                                               

The little boy and the cat

For three long years a young boy eagerly wishes to have a cat. His parents finally get him a kitten. The boy takes good care of the kitten; he plays with it and even sleeps with it every day until the end of the school year with no sign of an allergy. During summer break, he goes away to spend his vacation with his sickly grandmother who says she will be unable to take care of both the boy and the cat. Consequently, the boy and the cat are separated. The boy now experiences a conflict of separation from his cat during the summer vacation and asks for it every day.

The part of the body that records a stress—an emotional conflict based on one’s perception—will react every time the allergen is present in the environment. In this case, the boy thinks the situation “stinks,” thus affecting the sinuses.

As soon as the summer vacation ends, the boy is reunited with the cat—and that is exactly when the first symptoms of allergy appear. In this particular case, the boy starts to sneeze and develops a sinus infection. He undergoes numerous allergy tests, all of which point to a specific allergen: cat hair (of course!).

The 2 phases of illness: knowledge at the leading edge 

Certain health disorders such as allergies manifest themselves during the resolution phase of the emotional conflict, according to the origin of the embryonic tissue solicited to express the biological response. It is somewhat surprising (and perhaps unsettling) to discover this new notion.

In the conventional system of health care, the specialist recommends the removal of the allergen for the good of the child. The cat is taken away, which means the boy and the cat are separated once again. Immediately after the cat is removed from his environment, the boy reverts to the active phase of the conflict of separation, which is asymptomatic, and the inflammatory phase of the allergy stops.

After a few weeks of constant requests for the cat, it is given back to the child for the second time. The boy breaks out with allergies again at the first contact with the cat since the resolution to the separation conflict is the symptomatic phase. Caught up in a vicious cycle, the boy will react to cat hair for as long as the first moment of separation is not processed and resolved.

An allergic reaction involves the squamous epithelial tissues of the body. It may affect the skin, the sinuses, and the throat. When the separation conflict is strongly associated with fear, the allergic reaction will affect the trachea and bronchi.

Important note: An allergy can cause serious symptoms. A person should not stop medical supervision because they think they are experiencing the resolution phase of a conflict. In many cases, understanding the phenomenon described above will help in conjunction with treatments.

Freedom from allergies is possible

It is often by going back in time to the first instance of separation and bringing resources to the younger self that a person can let go of the conflict of separation so the “allergen” no longer triggers symptoms.
