[...] True grace of the body is not something learned, but part of the natural man as equipment one of God's creatures. However, once you have lost, it can recover only by restoring the body of his spirituality. To do this, you should understand why and how its charm was lost. But since you can not recover the lost items, if we do not know precisely what we lost, we must begin by studying the natural body - a body in which movement, feeling and mind melt into graceful steps. We will explore the body as a self-sustaining energy system, which współreaguje the environment and whose survival depends on the environment. A look at the body from the perspective of energy will allow us to understand the essence of grace without falling into mysticism. This leads us to the knowledge of emotional connection with grace. In the absence of feelings movements become mechanical, and thoughts turn to abstractions .. Załamanemu human spirit, whose soul is full of hatred, of course, we compliment the sermon about love, but it is difficult to expect that the reference is an effect. But if we can restore the spirit, love of neighbor will shine in it again. Therefore I will investigate some of the disorders that violate the human spirit, will reduce his body and undermine the charm of his health. Centering attention on the charm as a criterion for health, will help us understand a lot of emotional problems that plague human beings, and to develop grace, which promotes health.
[...] Consider what happens to a child who is taught that crying is not acceptable behavior. Reflex tears is in the body and must somehow be blocked if it can not be expressed. To learn this reflex, the muscles involved in the crying need to shrink and remain in the busy state until the reflex tears do not expire. This reflex, however, did not cease, but merely withdrawn into the body where it lies in the subconscious. Can be activated after years of therapy or through a very powerful experience. Until that happens, the right team muscle - In this case the muscles of the mouth, jaw and throat - remain with chronic tension. The fact that this is a common problem, shows the prevalence of jaw stiffness, which in severe form is known as temporomandibular joint syndrome jaw.
Whenever the body has chronic muscle tension, natural reflexes are inadvertently blocked. A good example is the case of a man whose shoulder muscles were so tight and contracted, that he was not able to lift your hands above your head. That was a case of lock braking impulse increase the parent's hand . When I asked him whether he was ever able to get angry at his father, he replied that he never. The thought that he could hit him, was for him just as unacceptable as for his father. However, this inhibition was a consequence of the destruction of the natural graceful arm movements ...
