10 deeper spiritual meanings of diseases

Insights into understanding the deeper meanings of diseases

I am aware this is a very sensitive topic. Every journey is different so this serves as inspiration only for all who are seeking for deeper answers. This is not a generalisation that applies to all nor a general answer. It serves as inspiration for you to reflect deeper how it may apply to your own life or can help you enhance or even support your healing journey.

I channel texts and write intuitive books. What does that mean? My spirit guides give me topics to talk about. I simply write down the topics as they are revealed to me. This week the topic was about diseases. I wrote down 10 points. I felt guided to share those points.
In the past I didn’t always feel comfortable sharing the guidance from my intuition, as I am aware that those are highly sensitive topics.
But this time I just trust that some of you may be reminded or can get some inspiration from it just like I did.  I've also recorded this in a 30-minute session. There's a link to the recording at the end of this article if you prefer listening rather than reading. This is a 30-minute session focused on exploring the deeper meanings of a disease and its true spiritual message that came through.

Connecting back to yourself. To your soul blueprint. To who you truly are.

That was the key message I perceived in those intuitive messages. Please note my work doesn’t replace any medical treatment or consultation with a doctor. It rather provides insights on the root cause and the emotional as well as subconscious and spiritual messages, which can support your healing journey. As I spent years understanding, learning, and navigating the subconscious mind, I found great healing in it myself, and I'm learning each day.

Everything I share comes directly through my intuition. This approach serves as inspiration to look at diseases from a different perspective. When I first did, the way I now deal with diseases has entirely changed. I no longer see them as a curse; I see them as a way to release and expand and explore deeper layers of myself. That’s what I invite you to do as well. Go within yourself and explore yourself and different facets. That is—if you ask me—where the true healing starts.

I encourage people to activate their self-healing power from within and give them journal prompts to reflect upon so they can start rewiring their own subconscious minds. So far I have done a lot of self-reflection and journaling on different life categories, challenges, or disbalances that have appeared in my life, which brought me healing, clarity & balance.

Here are the 10 deeper meanings

The path you‘re currently on doesn‘t make you feel at ease

When I say “the path“ doesn‘t mean it‘s wrong. But the thoughts, emotions and patterns don‘t reflect who you are. This is not judgment. This is your body speaking. Your body is signaling something to you. The body signals to you something is not in alignment.
So healing a disease is not just treating symptoms. That can be one aspect and obvisouly is part of the healing journey. But what caused it? Either the path you‘re on is no longer exciting you. Or you‘re on a path that excites you but you have old thoughts and emotions that don‘t suit it.

The disease teaches you to remember who you are

Sometimes a disease reminds us who we are when we forget, especially during times when we get too busy with life and often overwhelmed by stress and struggle. A disease can teach you if you forgot who you truly are: A powerful energetic being co-creating worlds. Imagine yourself as a pure energy being. This is your unique soul blue print. Throughout lifetimes, you may have picked up beliefs, trauma or emotions that are not true. You consider them true. They overshadow your light, your original soul blueprint. Your body mirrors that.

A disease can mirror your shadow aspects

Sometimes a disease can show us shadow aspects, patterns, trauma and anything old. Things we hide. Things we suppress. Things we wish no one would note. Things we don‘t want to deal with. It can be our own emotions, our own dissatisfaction, our negative thinking patterns, our habits that are long outdated etc. It can sometimes be karmic. Many souls are not here for the first time. This is not punishment. It‘s the energetic law of resonance. Everything you send out you get back. So the clear message is, don't look away. Face your own shadows.

Healing a disease can trigger a reality shift = an identity shift

It‘s not that you have to become someone new or someone you‘re not, but that you become a little more of who you truly are.
This journey can mean different things to different people: 
Maybe if you have a heavy past and deal with pain and regret, it may mean making a little more peace with the past. Turn regret and pain into wisdom. To others, it can mean you finally move out of your daily dull routines and do more of what brings you joy.
To others, it can mean you finally give up the pattern of being angry at the world all the time and start seeing the beauty that is all around you. If you focus on the ugly, you will find a lot of ugly things. If you focus on the beauty, you will find a lot of beauty.

Remind yourself of who you truly are

For a moment, close your eyes and focus on your breath: Ask yourself: Who am I beyond my disease, my roles, my identity, my thoughts, my worries, my fears, my doubts? Come back to your awareness and ask yourself: Who do I choose to be right now moving forward?
That alone can be healing. Do this exercise for a longer time or repeat it each day and you‘ll be surprised how your perspectives can shift.

Expand and don‘t make your worthiness dependent on it

See the disease as an experience that makes you realize something, that makes you expand. Even if it‘s uncomfortable, every challenge can teach us valuable lessons. Don‘t identify with the disease in the sense of feeling like a miserable person. See it as a temporary experience. That‘s how you can move forward with more ease. Ask yourself: How does it expand my awareness? E.g. you are here reading or listening to those words. That can already expand your awareness. You become conscious. Even if the outside can feel dark, focus on the inside now. Focus on how you can get out of it as a stronger version of yourself.

Focus on what can go well, not what could go wrong

Focus on your healing. When you no longer see it as a signal your body gives you, not a curse, you no longer ignore the signal. You note it. You can take action towards it. Now support your body. Focus on what can go right. Focus on the healing and how your body is recovering well. Don‘t focus on all the things that can go wrong. It‘s not helping. The more you focus on what can go right, the more you can shift toward that path.

Be gentle with yourself

Yes, depending on the disease or its grade, it can evoke fear or other emotions. But it‘s exactly that moment to remind yourself to be gentle with yourself. To practice a little bit more compassion with yourself. Sometimes we‘re so harsh with ourselves.

Become aware you shape your reality

Become aware that you shape your reality. You see the world through your unique eyes. Sometimes it‘s time to change your perspective. To challenge how you see the world and yourself. Remind yourself what you already know deep down. You shape your reality. What you believe in becomes your reality. Go from “I can‘t“ to “I can“. Go from “It‘s impossible“ to “I believe there‘s a path.“ That doesn‘t mean the journey isn‘t always smooth. But you open the path to possibility. It doesn‘t mean to never have fear. But you no longer let fear rule your reality.

Become aware of your interactions

Especially during a disease, the interactions with others can be important. Some relationships nourish us, some don‘t.
Surround yourself with people who uplift you. Build your own sunshine. Ask people for help if you need to. Ask for support.
But remember that some people may also be overwhelmed. They may sometimes not know how to deal with it. So open communication can help. Imagine it would be the other way round. How would you most likely react? This is not a time to blame others for your disease. It‘s more about using it as an opportunity to create harmony within yourself and your relationships and make peace with any person from the past that still lingers in your subconscious mind.
