While it might be true that we do not need to know every precise trauma that contributed to our reactions to stress and some foods.
I'm going to use a metaphor here.
What if certain foods were served at a dinner that ended up traumatic and violent? Do we notice that when we eat these foods cooked the same way, we get knots in our stomach and symptoms of IBS? Yes, this could be an unconscious reaction to an earlier trauma, plain and simple.
Our past can benefit from healing forgiveness to the offender. In addition, we can learn to cook differently and not like Mama used to cook the same foods. We can take Heather's acacia powder and peppermint tea to help control the reactions physically that are warring with our subconscious mind that has stored things of the past around many things, some unpleasant.
I believe IBS to be psychosomatic in nature, and also believe it can be controlled with some dietary changes and food choices, as well as ways of preparing them. I don't use my mother's old recipe box any more, as I can see that they are not only high in fat they bring subconscious reactions to things I didn't remember before into my conscious mind readily, after attacking my gut. Yet when I really think about it I actually CAN bring things into my conscious so that they can heal and not haunt me today in my gut.
Education brings personal power over the quality of one's life!
