Allergy Relief Therapy - Calm like a Clear Sky (15 min)

Allergens confuse your body. Your job is to clear up that confusion. Let’s take dust. Dust mites may seem like a scary invading army. And if you’ve every seen a picture they look every bit the frightening sci fi monster. But each part of nature plays its role in the greater whole. There is one species of dust mite, for example, that lives in the ground and its powerful enzymes break down the organic matter in soil. This enrichment actually enables life on earth. Unfortunately, similar enzymes, when they enter our eyes or nose or mouth from the dust in the air, can irritate and begin to break down the tissues within our body. So to our cells they look a lot like an invader that will harm us. And so, even though they are harmless, these sensitive tissues call forth the body’s powerful defenses against a fake threat and the recurring inflammation creates its own sort of sickness within us. But there isn’t a virus or killer bacteria behind that initial irritation. The enzymes in the dust are just doing what they do. So we need to get our bodies used to these visitors. Just like in immunotherapy, we can do that in our minds, bit by bit. If we regularly practice these allergy meditations, our bodies learn to become less afraid of these visitors, they learn to welcome and accept them instead of fearing and attacking them.
