ACCEPT HEALING SYMBOLS Ruth White links the Adrenals to the solar plexus, whereas Monika Fell- Hagen links the pancreas.

Our bodies speak a very simple, even primitive language. Attunement to the root chakra enables us to be more in touch with our bodies and the language they speak.   Find symbols for the pain – and live with these symbols for a while… Meditate on life when you were between 3 to 12 years old and find symbols for anything that might have left a mark…   When healing concentrates only on symptoms, or at best, purely physical causes, disease may become chronic or one ailment may be ‘cured’ only to give way to another.
