Heal Your Heart: Address the Emotional Root of Disease

Heal Your Heart:  Address The Emotional Root of Disease

In today’s modern world filled with stress, many people are struggling with many diseases which are mainly psychosomatic in nature. Heart disease, to a greater extent, is one of them. People do everything known to them to avoid or get out of the heart problems- change the diet, reduce oil and salt intake, start walking, doing yoga, even meditation.

Doctors prescribe tests, investigations, and give you medicines. You start taking the medicines- probably for life- and suffer from their side effects. And that inner fear remains..   someone close to you, healthy, looking, active, full of life, suddenly collapsed one day and you asked, “Why? What went wrong?”

It is necessary to understand that the heart issue is not just in the body, it’s much deeper. It’s root causes are emotional, energetic and spiritual. It is rooted in your unresolved pain, unexpressed emotions,  hidden fears and suppressed grief. It is also rooted in your greed, envy and frustration.

And yes, you created this, through years of emotional pain you never got to release. You had the choice to let go, to forgive, to choose peace over ego and control. But you held on. You buried anger, you silenced your grief, you smiled outside but broke inside and your heart felt it all. Every suppressed emotion became a weight on your heart.

In this article we will discuss the emotional and psychological side of the issue.  We are not going to talk about cholesterol, arteries, or ECGs. We are  going to discuss that aspect of the heart which no scan can detect. Emotional wounds that weaken your heart, block free flow of fluids, and take away your joy. Heart diseases are not just physical conditions. They are manifestations of an inner emotional imbalance. This is an emotional healing method meant to support your well-being. But heart issues are serious. So please keep taking your regular medical treatment. Never stop any medicine without talking to your doctor.

Suppose you are given a stone weighing just about 2 kilograms and told to  hold it straight with one hand- out in front of you. For the first minute, it feels easy. It’s just a small weight- manageable. Hold it for 5 minutes and your arm starts to ache. Keep holding it for an hour and now you start feeling pain in the arm. Your muscles burn, your hand trembles, and if you are forced to hold it for an entire day, then it becomes unbearable torture. Not because the stone got heavier, but because you never put it down.

Now, think of that weight as a negative emotion.

Anger, guilt, fear, resentment. A little bit of it for a little while.

We all carry that. It’s human, but hold it for days, months or years and it begins to hurt you. Not just emotionally but physically! Your nervous system gets overloaded, overworked. Your body tightens, your heart suffers. You lose your sleep and your peace disappears. The weight doesn’t change, but your choice to hold it on or let go does. Sometimes healing is not about fixing the emotion, it’s simply about knowing when to put the weight down.

You must have known someone, maybe a colleague, relative, or even a fitness coach who looked completely healthy. They ate healthy food, went to gym daily, took morning walks, followed every healthy habit in the book. And yet one day they had a heart attack. Everyone around was shocked. How is that possible, they asked. He looked so fit, always smiling, always disciplined. And then people said, “Maybe it’s just bad luck! Maybe nothing really helps”.

What no one saw was the emotional storm growing inside him. What no one asked was what pain was he carrying? What sorrow was he silently swallowing? What anger, fear, loneliness, or burden was locked deep in his heart, never expressed, never healed. Because you can have a strong body, but a bruised spirit. You can build muscles but suppress tears. You can run on a treadmill while running away from your own emotions. That man didn’t die of just a blocked artery. He died of a blocked heart,  an emotionally congested heart that was never allowed to feel, to forgive, to let go. And that is why today’s article matters more than anything else. Because we are not just healing your physical heart, we are unlocking the emotions buried within it.

Here is a simple process to heal the heart-

Part-1 What you did wrong without realizing

Let’s begin with the hard truth. Your heart problems didn’t begin in your arteries. They began in your emotions. Now it’s time to gently take responsibility for the five silent mistakes you have been repeating for years without even realizing how deeply they were hurting your heart.

1. You carried emotional burdens that were not yours. You took responsibility for others’ happiness. You became the fixer, the giver, the one who held it all together. But silently your all needs were crushed. That unspoken pressure on your chest, it became your normal. Until one day your heart couldn’t hold it anymore.
2. You suppressed deep pain. Maybe you lost someone, may be you were betrayed, may be you never felt truly loved. But instead of grieving, crying or releasing, you stayed strong, you smiled and you moved on. But inside, your heart quietly cracked, and and it’s that unprocessed grief that is still sitting in your Heart Chakra blocking the flow.
3. You closed your heart. After being hurt, you built walls. You stopped trusting, You became defensive, worried, afraid of intimacy. That emotional closing of the heart also restricts the energy flow in your physical heart.
4. You chased achievement over fulfillment. You worked hard, you stayed busy, you achieved things. But were you truly joyful? Or did you always feel like something was missing? When the soul is neglected, the heart starts to protest.
5. You forgot to love yourself. You were kind to everyone but not to yourself. You didn’t rest, you didn’t forgive yourself. You just hated and regretted your body, your past, your choices, and eventually, people around you. That self hate becomes poison and is emanated outside to everyone who comes in contact with you.

Part-2 The science behind emotions and heart health

 Now we will see Part 2, the science behind emotions and heart health.

Your heart is not just pumping blood, it’s thinking, feeling, remembering. It holds 40,000 neurons. A little brain of its own, pulsing with intelligence. Your heart sends more messages to your brain than your brain sends to your heart. Every emotion you feel- love, fear, joy, anger literally changes your heartbeat, your blood pressure, your rhythm. Your heart listens, it remembers, it responds.

So the real question is, what are you feeding it emotionally. When you are angry, your heartbeat turns wild and erratic. When fear takes over, your blood vessels tighten like a fist. In loneliness, cortisol, the  stress hormone, surges through your body. And with every lingering grudge, resentment fuels silent inflammation.

Now imagine living in those emotions day after day, year after year. No wonder your heart feels heavy. No wonder it struggles. But the moment you shift just a little, everything begins to change. Feel love and your heartbeat finds its natural rhythm- smooth and correct. Feel gratitude- and your blood pressure begins to settle like calm sea. Let go through forgiveness, and stress hormones drop. Friends, healing doesn’t always begin with pills. Sometimes it begins with the courage to feel and release.

Part-3 Frequency of emotions and the heart chakra

Every emotion you feel has frequency. A vibration, a pulse. And your heart is not just an organ, it is the epicenter of that emotional energy. It feels everything, every joy, every ache, every unspoken grief. Now let’s go deeper into these frequency of emotions.  

The feeling or emotion of Shame vibrates at just 20 Hertz, guilt at 30, grief at 75 hertz, fear climbs to 100 hertz, and anger peaks at 150 hertz. But love– explodes at 500 Hertz, gratitude hums even higher at 540 and pure joy that soars beyond 600 Hertz.

Now, be honest with yourself. Have you been living in the lower zones, dwelling in grief, guilt, fear or quiet resentment for years? Because that is what closes the heart. That low dense frequency constricts your chest, blocks your energy, and slowly invites diseases in silence. But something beautiful happens when you shift, when you begin to forgive not just others but yourself. When you choose joy even in the small moments, when you practice self love not as an idea but as a way of being, your frequency rises. Your heart begins to open, blood flows freely, energy moves, and that is when real healing begins-not through force, but through flow.

Part-4 how to heal from the heart

Now we will discuss Part 4, how to heal from the heart. Not just the symptoms. Here is a powerful healing road map. Not just to prevent the heart attack, but to reset your emotional heart.  

1. Radical self responsibility.

   Repeat this in your mind again and again-. I take responsibility for the emotions I have carried. I allow myself to feel released and heal. I forgive myself and open my heart again..

2. Emotional grief release Every night, place your hand over your heart, close your eyes and whisper- Say it’s OK. I am safe now. I allow myself to feel the grief I have buried. Let the tears come, they are healing you. They are releasing the blocked emotional energy.

3. Heal the heart chakra.

   And now the Third Point, heal the heart chakra- which is also known as Anahata chakra.

The heart chakra is green in color, it governs love, compassion and connection. When it is blocked, you feel lonely, defensive and weak, but when it is healed, you radiate warmth, peace and flow. To open and heal your heart chakra- Place both of your hands over your chest. Breath deeply. Now chant the seed mantra for heart chakra. It is. . Yam. Yam.

Feel the deep healing vibrations in your chest.  Repeat the mantra- Yam- 108 times daily. And for best results, you can also visualize green light filling your chest. Now repeat these affirmations with yourself- I am love. I give and receive love freely. I deserve to feel safe in love.

Feel that warmth. That’s your heart, remembering who you truly are.

4. Let go of emotional armor.

   You don’t need to be strong all the time. You are human, you are allowed to feel. Say this to yourself-. It is safe for me to be vulnerable. I release the armor around my heart. I trust love again. This opens the blood vessels, calms the nervous system and brings harmony to your heart rhythm.

5. Practice heart coherence.  

Do this simple technique every day. Also follow this- Sit calmly, and breathe three times into your heart slowly for five seconds of inhale and five seconds of exhale. Now bring up a memory that fills you with love or gratitude. Feel it in your heart!

These practices can reset your heart rhythm and heal years of emotional stress.

Heart disease is not just a physical condition. It is an emotional call for love. A desperate call from your soul asking, “Can I feel again?, Can I trust again?, Can I be loved again?” And the answer is, “Yes!”.  So don’t fight your symptoms. Don’t numb your feelings. Instead breathe into them. Speak kindly to your own heart.

Your healing starts Now. With one thought, one breath, one softening of the chest. The heart doesn’t heal with pills, it heals with truth, love and permission to feel.
