Soul Sustenance

Overcoming Acidity And Stomach Ulcers Through Meditation

A diet rich in chilies and oils as well as mental tension increases the stimulation of the specific nerves responsible for acid secretion in the stomach. The continued acid secretion over a period of time destroys the delicate linings of the stomach resulting into an ulcer. Antacids and other medicines which neutralize the acid or reduce stimulation of nerves help a person for a short period. For long term benefits a change in diet and transformation of one's outlook and mental state are essential.

Regular practice of meditation definitely makes ones outlook towards the day-to-day events positive. It also motivates a person and provides enough mental power to adopt a healthy life style.

The following short visualization, practiced for a few minutes every day, would help in reducing the stimulation of the specific nerves and in turn the acid secretion. This would also promote healing of the ulcer:

In a deep meditation state, visualize that soothing and relaxing white subtle rays of peace are falling from the Supreme Soul (who is in the incorporeal world or shantidham) on to the soul...

Focus these rays on the stomach; visualize that these peaceful rays, like a laser beam, are have a soothing effect on your stomach...

Now, in the middle of this experience: Picturize that the stimulation of nerves going to the stomach is reducing... Picturize that production of acids in your stomach is also reducing and the ulcer is gradually healing…

This type of visualization can be used to heal other illnesses in other body systems (parts) as well.

In Spiritual Service,
Brahma Kumaris
