Just as disease doesn ' t appear overnight, but builds up for years before becoming manifest, so do the patterns and problems that result in chronic anger( whether internalized or externalized). Dr. Bigelsen points out the fallacy of the " germ theory " of disease, or the idea that health problems are the result of an " attack " by a virus or bacteria that assaults our otherwise healthy body. As Pasteur acknowledged on his deathbed, it ' s the condition of the " biological terrain " that leads to disease, not the germ.
The word " terrain " derives from the Latin for " earth " or " soil." Plants will thrive in healthy soil, and survive insects and disease, which are just fulfilling their role in the larger ecosystem. They are meant to take out the weeds and weaker plants, allowing the healthy plants full access to all the goodness in the soil and environment. Bacteria and viruses, or " germs " fill the same role in the ecology of the body. It’ s easy to see that when the health of the body deteriorates, they will grow in number to try to keep up with the ever-increasing workload.
Our emotional state doesn ' t go from happy and open to sullen and angry because of one upset or event. Rather the " emotional terrain " is years in the making, starting out in the earliest years of our development. It can be impacted by traumas and life events that throw us off kilter. This state is evidenced in our communication, just as health is reflected in the eyes and complexion.
We see a range of pharmacological solutions, from Ritalin given to children to anti-depressants seemingly given to everyone. But in most cases, re-establishing healthy communication is the key. Even when a family member or loved one is uncommunicative, we can still seek to better understand the circumstances or context of the problem, and examine how we are contributing to it in an unwitting manner. We can begin to loosen up the " scar tissue " in our relationships and allow space for the proper flow to resume.

opposed to the dead cultures used in conventional medicine. He has validated the ancient scriptural teaching that " the life is in the blood," as it reveals a world of information about the health of the individual. In the same way, the life of our relationships is in our communication.
Amazingly, our bodies will tell us the source of disease, when we understand the language it speaks. This was widely understood in the past, but largely forgotten in our modern world. Our communications will tell us what we need to know about the health of our relationships, if we will take the time to listen.
