Religious Guilt--The Silent Killer

MIAMI BEACH, FL, July 21, 2012 (Press-News.org) Illness seems to often strike out of nowhere. One day all was well and then a shocking call from the Doctor's office hands us a card we were not prepared for.

But what if we were more than prepared for it? What if we did the actual preparing? "Guilt effects people in a detrimental way and often leads to self punishment." says Dr. Roth who has used Hypnotherapy to successfully cure many illnesses in his own practice. "Many of us have grown up with strong believes of wrong or right, and our interpretation of these rules can leave us feeling tainted. This feeling then translates into actual harm to the body."

Roth believes a technique called "re-framing" during a hypnotherapy session can undo patterns of self-punishment and even result in releasing the disease itself.

A divorce, for example, can create tremendous guilt in people who took the oath "till death do us part" and the emotional toll of the breaking of a holy promise can raise havoc in the body. Here Roth suggests adjusting the story we tell ourselves and for example interpreting that the relationship "died". The promise of "till death do us part" was therefore honored and this notion helps the person resolve the inner conflict. "There are many ways of re-framing a story. You are not lying to yourself, you are simply taking one point of view and exchanging it for another."

Sexual Guilt is another hot topic, often resulting in premature ejaculation or in females the inability to orgasm. Guilt about an abortion can cause fertility issues and here once again helping the subconscious to re-frame and let go of the self-punishment often reliefs the physical symptom.

Another effective remedy to many self-inflicted illnesses is to talk to an imaginary friend. Usually considered a fantasy child's play, this technique actually helps to utilize our own inner wisdom and integrate our many levels of conciseness.

"Deep down we often know what is good for us, but we are not tapping into this wisdom. Separating ourselves from our fears and weaknesses allows for this inner wisdom to be channeled and accessed."

Roth believes Western medicine often effectively deals with the symptoms, but doesn't address the root cause or seed of the problem. Through guided Hypnotherapy the patient is guided to find the underlying cause and remove the seed, which often results in the relief of the symptom. " I don't want to promote the notion that all illness is our fault. I do however believe that we have much more power in hand to return to health than we are aware of. Hypnotherapy gives us the tools to achieve this access. "

Dr. Steven Roth is available for private sessions.
