How Constant Criticism Leads To Autoimmune Disorders

By Jennifer Elizabeth Masters

Imagine a newborn baby girl. This baby is perfect, with ten tiny fingers and toes. She has beautiful skin and a rosy complexion.

When this baby is born, it is yelled at for crying. Her parents scream at her when she needs to be held and slam the bedroom door leaving her uncared for and unloved.

When she is hungry her parents yell, "Stupid baby shut up!" Her parents tell her she is ugly, a waste of their time, an idiot and useless.  When her diapers are dirty, a perfectly natural phenomenon her parent tell her she stinks and is a horrible baby. Over time, this beautiful little girl begins to believe that she is stupid,  ugly, horrible, stinky, dirty and useless. Her immune system begins to shut down because she is useless after all. Most likely this girl will become a victim, and be raped or molested. She is, after all, a victim. 

Trauma in our childhood whether it is losing a parent early, having alcoholic or addicted parents, being unwanted or unloved all help to create a background of negativity and feelings of being unlovable, unworthy and undeserving. Perpetuating these feelings with our thoughts continues to impact our psyche, body, unconscious mind and eventually our health.

My Personal Discovery of Creating Ill Health

When I began my healing journey, I began to realize that my negativity and self-loathing were killing me. My thoughts were hateful, filled with scorn and criticism. I was sick all the time. I hated myself and my body. I had repressed anger, constant bladder and sinus infections. I got colds, the flu and rashes all over my body.

I was depressed, negative, anxious; I had Fibromyalgia and Epstein-Barr syndrome, an autoimmune disease. My body was failing because I told it was ugly, useless and flawed constantly. I perpetuated what my parents said to me. I was a useless female that didn't deserve to go to college and would never amount to anything. I jumped from job to job and marriage to marriage. I was a perfectionist a people pleaser and a chameleon. I tried to be what I thought others would like. I was highly emotional and suppressed what I truly thought. I looked for happiness and validation outside of me.

What I Let Go Of To Heal

• I stopped giving energy to things that didn't matter. 
• I stopped focusing on what others thought of me. 
• I began to change my thoughts from self-defeating, critical and derisive, to loving and accepting. 
• I stopped being critical of myself and others, 
• I stopped worrying about what others thought of me. 
• I stopped being late. 
• I stopped making excuses. 
• I stopped complaining. 

I took responsibility for my happiness and my health. JEM

As I did my health began to improve. Little by little, I became happier. I stopped being the chameleon to be accepted, trying to please others and began to be authentically me. I became happier. My depression lifted without medication! My anxiety and worry eased and went away. I am now 61 and have no pain in any part of my body. 

Loving thoughts heal the body and the mind. JEM

What Helped Me Most

1. I was diligent about changing my thoughts from negative to positive.
2. I used mantras in the background of my mind to reprogram my mind. 
3. I meditated daily.
4. I became mindful.
5. I stopped multi-tasking.
6. I became disciplined.
7. I witnessed my reactions to situations.
8. I processed my emotions.
9. I stopped watching the news.
10. I stopped reading the paper.
11. I moved away from my family that was toxic.
12. I was watchful of being true to myself.
13. I was gentle, nurturing and loving to me.
14. I took care of my needs first, instead of the needs of others.
15. I cleared my energy field several times a week and more if I needed it.

Constant criticism doesn't allow our body to thrive. When our body doesn't meet our expectations, we hate our bodies. 

We make statements about this hate which destroy cells and create illness. Perfectionism, control, and fear are what lead to critiquing our every failing. Instead of making your body the enemy why not make friends with it and love it instead?

Loving thoughts send calming signals to the brain.

 

Negative thoughts create incongruent thought waves and create acidity in our body. Imagine how it feels to have someone tell you how beautiful you are. Imagine how it feels to have someone pay you a compliment on how great you look. Now feel what those thoughts do to your body. Imagine what it would feel like to have only loving thoughts in your mind about your body. Loving thoughts create perfect, vital health. 

We can just as easily create perfect vital health with our thoughts. Unfortunately, our society, big pharma, and even the medical profession do not support the positive creation of vital health. What most people fail to recognize is that every illness, pain, and disease is created by our thoughts and emotions. 

Wouldn't You Rather Have Perfect Health?

Fighting cancer

Fighting disease

Fighting fear

Fighting problems

Are not the answer!

Because you are focusing on the problem rather than the solution.

Tap in and see what you feel. 

Breathe deeply three times to tap in.

Inhale slowly and completely.

Exhale slowly. 

Inhale again completely.

Exhale completely.

Repeat this exercise once more.

Fighting illness creates poor health. We can't fight anything and win. We have to love our bodies, make friends with ourselves to create a healthy body.

Positive thoughts about ourselves create health and well-being. 

Negative thoughts about ourselves create illness, and disease.

Suppressing anger creates depression. 

Believing that we aren't in control of lives creates anxiety.

When we think loving thoughts about our body, we create vital health. Negative thoughts create negative feelings about yourself and body. Constant criticism will eventually cause you physical pain to signify you are headed in the wrong direction. If you ignore your body's signs diseases are the next level of notification. Auto-immune problems and diseases are created by your thoughts. They didn't just happen!

People that are not conscious don't want to take responsibility for their health and well-being - they believe everything a doctor tells them and dutifully take the pills prescribed without question.

(I am not suggesting that you stop your necessary medication for diabetes or high blood pressure and other serious illnesses. What I am suggesting is that you look for natural remedies when possible to heal yourself.)

Loving thoughts create congruency in the brain, like deep dreamless sleep, they heal our body and mind. Loving thoughts

alleviate anxiety and create happiness. Just like any new fitness or health regime, we need to practice thinking loving thoughts daily so that our brain will begin to make new healthy grooves and patterns. 

There is another way. Life can be hard. Honor your path and what you have been through. Heartbreak, sadness, abuse, struggle are all real and very challenging. You have done your best. Give yourself credit for what you have done and experienced. You have been through a lot. It hasn't been easy. Honor the journey you have been on. 

It is time to let go of suffering. Begin by forgiving yourself using the simple prayer of forgiveness here. This prayer is what I used to move out of shame and suffering. 

Forgive yourself for whatever you have done or said to yourself in the past that was harmful, mean or cruel. 

1. Close your eyes.
2. Breathe in slowly and completely to bring yourself into your body and the present moment.
3. Exhale completely. Repeat twice more.
4. Repeat the Ho'oponopono prayer slowly out loud until you have an emotional release or feel a shift in your energy. Sometimes this involves crying. Sometimes it involves laughter. Allow emotions come up to be released. Feeling your emotions fully is what is required to be happy and healthy.

How Your Thoughts Create Disease

By Jennifer Elizabeth Masters

I was recently discussing the fact that I used to have Epstein Barr autoimmune disease and Fibromyalgia with a friend. She remarked to me that more people need to know and understand that when we believe we will have something forever, we do. Both of these diseases are thought to be permanent conditions. 

How then could I possibly heal something thought by the medical field to be incurable? 

BELIEF

When we believe something is true, we create it. It does not matter if we believe the positive or the negative. We create with our beliefs. I recognized that my negative thoughts were killing me. I knew and believed that if I changed my negativity my health would improve. I am proof positive that if you believe you can cure something - you can. 

Self-love coupled with positive beliefs affirming vibrant health daily, I no longer have health issues. 

Our acid thoughts create an environment rife for disease. JEM

I was raised in a critical environment. My parents were doubting Thomases. They were cynical, negative and extremely hard on all of us as children. I was programmed for negativity. I worked diligently on changing my beliefs, thoughts and words to be supportive, uplifting and positive. It took me years of daily work. It didn't happen overnight. The end result for me is a healthy youthful body, mind and spirit, free of illness, pain and disease.

I KNOW IT WORKS!

I knew that if I was happy and positive that my vibration would change. Thinking positive thoughts on a daily basis changes your brain chemistry and therefore your body all the way down to your cells. Even the small act of smiling changes your brain chemistry. I have cleared thousands of people eliminating their negative programming so that they are now living happier, healthier lives.

When I began to do more activities that gave me pleasure, I became happier. I was doing work I loved, with people I loved, which raised my vibration and alkalized my body. I meditated daily. My thoughts were congruent, which eased and eliminated stress. I began to live in the present, free of worry and fears. The mantras I used changed the patterns of negativity from my childhood - permanently. 

Changing Our Paradigm

Our most impactful years are from birth to five years of age. We are actually programmed by our parents and environment very early in life. Many of the beliefs systems that are created in childhood run our lives unless we change the unconscious programming. Until the unconscious is reprogrammed, it is running the show sending out negative beliefs and emotions into the Universe returning to us more of what we don't want.

We must change the internal programming of our subconscious mind to have lasting change. How do I help my clients do this? First, I do an energy clearing (or series) to eliminate the programs running that are self-defeating, destructive and negative. Next, I give personalized mantras specifically designed to uproot the negative belief systems and change the patterns and synapses in the brain. 

How Do We Create Our Own Disease?

We respond and react to others, holding unresolved emotions like resentment, abandonment and anger in our bodies. We trust what our parents taught us even when it didn't work very well for them. We take on what we shouldn't. We aim for perfection causing untold stress and anxiety. We judge others and are harsh with self-recrimination. 

We worry about what others think of us, which causes us further stress. We push ourselves too much resisting the impulse to listen to our body. We don't rest and relax enough. We ignore our body's signals telling us we need to eat better, rest more and exercise to be healthy. We consume foods that create illness rather than support health because we think they are easier. We run from morning till night without sitting in quiet. We are constantly doing rather than being present. We don't listen to our internal compass and inner voice when it attempts to guide us to something better and healthier.

A personal story of cancer

My father read the newspaper cover to cover daily. He came home and discussed the latest findings of cancer-causing foods, like bacon, peanut butter and coffee at the dinner table. As he was eating his food that traveled through his body for approximately 16 hours digesting and feeding his body, he talked about cancer and all the things that caused it - daily! Interestingly he developed myelodisplastic leukemia from his negative thoughts and beliefs about cancer.

What happens within us that creates disease?

1. We verbally abuse ourselves by saying we are stupid, not good enough or unloved which creates an acid environment in our bodies. 
2. We don't celebrate our accomplishments. 
3. We think and feel not good enough, unloved, not validated which causes us stress, anxiety and worry. Each negative thought creates more acidity in our bodies. We may have sore joints, acid reflux and inflammation.
4. We feel unloved and therefore reach for food stuffs or drugs which make us feel loved, like sweets, chocolate and alcohol. These foods cause an increase in candida and therefore inflammation. 
5. Unconscious beliefs about missing out on the sweetness of life from childhood create a need to consume foods to comfort us. We feel we are justified to eat what we crave, rather than what is good for us.
6. We push our emotions down deep inside our bodies which cause us to create drama and chaos in our outer world.
7. We deny our true selves.
8. We become fearful of our feelings.
9. We stop trusting our guidance.
10. We allow our fears to control us, which creates more chaos.
11. We create a false persona that causes us stress because being fake isn't a reflection of our soul, or truest version of us.
12. Our fears causes us to attempt to control our environment which further deplete our energy and life force.
13. Fears keep us awake at night. We no longer trust our inner voice.
14. We focus on negative issues, creating more negativity and acidity in our bodies.
15. We push ourselves striving for perfection which causes anxiety and stress.
16. We worry about things that never come to fruition. 
17. We concern ourselves with what others think of us.
18. We become undisciplined and unhappy with ourselves, lives and others. 
19. We become the chameleon - a fake version of ourselves to be what we think others want. 
20. We make up stories about others, we run from the truth and we create illness from our negative thoughts. 
21. Over time our resentment, and other stuffed emotions create cancer, diabetes and other diseases because we didn't see the warning signs. 
22. Cancer and others diseases are warning signs to look inside and reflect on what our thoughts and beliefs are. We have to change the inner programming to cure the disease, which is where I come in. This is what I did for myself. You can have cancerous tumors removed, but if the emotions aren't cleared and the behavior remains unchanged, the cancer will return.
23. We have forgotten that the Universe works with us, guiding us, showing us the way. We don't learn from our mistakes and continue to choose people and situations that are comfortable and familiar, rather than moving into healthier beliefs and choices.

Warning Light

Our body gives us early warning signs that something isn't right. Most of us ignore these signs. It could be unruly or unwarranted emotions that bubble up from nowhere. It could be exhaustion that we combat with caffeine. We push ourselves beyond our human limits even when our body shows us something is wrong by giving us canker sores, body aches, immense fatigue or even depression. We take a pill to kill the pain rather than fixing the problem at the root. We look for the quick fix (a pill) that taxes our liver and causes more issues and side-effects like chemical sensitivity from too many medications. Everything that we put in our mouth is filtered by the liver. The liver gives out when it becomes toxic.

We surround ourselves with people who are negative and who believe that there is only one way to do things. We believe that we are not good enough. We believe that germs are what cause disease. We believe what doctors tell us about what we have and that it is incurable, never attempting to change our belief systems. Our beliefs are what govern our world even when they are self-destructive.
