Saw a video on the Isha Kriya page and Sadhguru talks about external and chronic health issues

Whereas infectious external ones are caused by something on the outside , chronic ones develop from within the body and has to be quelled from the inside

Sadhguru explains that while the body and cells r designed for health, sometimes the body develops these chronic conditions as something fundamental has gone off balance, or there is a certain understanding or misunderstanding about things within the system itself, at the cellular level, at the elemental level, so instead of creating health its creating ill health . And we may be incubating this misunderstanding in many ways

So this can be altered by bringing about a certain level of balance in the system, activating a inner energy and accessing the innermost dimension of who you are, which is the very maker of this body

If there is a repair job to be done on this body, should you go to the manufacturer or the local mechanic?

Because the problem is generated from within, it is very important that an inner solution be found for this—->

the inner engineering process is about this, that you find access to the deepest dimension of intelligence and competence within ourselves which is capable of generating this body

The simplest step that one needs to take is that one becomes open to the possibility first of all.

I look at myself and ask what causes the keloids and cyst

The keloids, as I have read, is a result of overhealing. The cyst, absorbed water from the surroundings.

Over active!

Hardened.

The first idea that came to mind, was that I have perhaps (mis)understood that in the face of difficulties, I have to harden up, toughen up in order to survive

I jumped the gun.

Rather than to be as it is, as I m. I reacted overzealously by toughening up. I thought that was the only way.

Expanding on this, the (mis)understanding is to be perfect (when I m not). There was no compassion or empathy towards myself , no respect no acknowledgement of myself

I did not cherish myself and always relegated myself to something else

With this understanding, I have to rework myself and see how this can help my body.

Learning to slow down, learning to be aware, learning to break the circuit of overreacting, of jumping the gun, or the habit to toughen up or stiffen is so so important.

Learning to be soft, malleable, flexible, learning to be fluid. Learning to accept.
