Psychosomatics: kidneys
Filtering out toxic influences
The kidneys filter and flush toxins out of the body. In the framework of scientific psychosomatics, kidney trouble can mirror the body's inability to 'filter out' what is toxic in your life — whether that's an environment, a relationship, or a habit.
Possible psychological causes
- An inability to filter out toxic influences
- Long-term exposure to the wrong environment
- A build-up of unprocessed emotional and situational 'waste'
- Ignoring the body's warnings that your surroundings are toxic
Self-reflection questions
- ?What in your life is poisoning you?
- ?Which influences can't you filter out?
- ?Which relationships or situations are poisoning your life?
