The belly, situated in the lower, front part of the human trunk, primarily houses the intestines. Similar to everyday life, overindulgence in food can lead to a "full belly," resulting in drowsiness and discomfort. To avoid impatience and frustration, one must learn to approach life changes gradually, adapting step by step. The abdomen is where a child develops before transitioning from solitude to a more social existence, symbolizing the realm of relationships. Challenges within this area often represent conflicts or barriers between oneself and the surrounding universe, which manifest through personal relationships. It is crucial to recognize one's thoughts and emotions through interactions with others and the world around them. The abdomen harbors one's deepest intentions and moral compass; diseases here provide insight into one's inner life and emotional state.

Adenopathy is characterized by the enlargement of lymph nodes and may result from inflammation, tumors, or infections. Since lymph nodes play a role akin to the kidneys of the lymphatic system, this condition indicates emotional stress or shocks related to affective fears. It reflects feeling blocked or trapped on this emotional plane. The specific region affected provides a more precise indication of the aspect of life being affected, whether it's the thorax, abdomen, neck, armpit, or groin. Empowering oneself with greater autonomy and self-confidence is essential to taking control of one's life.

Colic refers to abdominal pain characterized by a persistent and uncomfortable background ache. It can encompass the entire abdomen or be localized to a specific point (distinct from colitis, which is inflammation of the colon). Colic often brings an urgency to use the restroom and, when more intense, can be accompanied by painful diarrhea. For further details, see diarrhea and gastrointestinal issues.

The abdomen, or belly, contains the intestines and can experience unexplained pain unrelated to other discomfort or diseases.
When the upper abdomen hurts, especially in the solar plexus area, it suggests excessive worry about others and fear of them.
When the lower abdomen hurts (below the navel), it signifies excessive concern about the present moment and self-fear. It may feel like someone wants to harm you for their gain.
In the first case, your body is telling you to stop believing that your purpose is to constantly worry about the happiness of others. Compassion is valuable, but making yourself sick for their sake is not required. Learn to let them live their own experiences and help only when asked, respecting your boundaries.
Regarding the lower abdomen, your body signals that you think worrying excessively will protect you from the current fears. However, releasing that worry improves your chances of finding the right solutions. Worrying takes you away from your center, leading to decisions based on fear rather than genuine needs.
Recognize the role of your stomach in digesting, absorbing, and integrating life events. Stomach issues often relate to a need for emotional nourishment and comfort. Food represents affection, security, reward, and survival. During times of separation, loss, or financial scarcity, people may attempt to fill emotional voids with food. Fermentation occurs when emotions are suppressed, leading to bitterness and stagnation. To overcome this, release past emotional baggage and embrace change, even if it's uncomfortable. It's important to accept life's experiences and allow them to shape your growth. Acceptance leads to transformation and relieves pressure and tension.

Ileitis refers to inflammation in the last part of the small intestine, the ileum, which can cause severe pain. In cases of bacterial or viral diseases, it may resemble an appendicitis crisis. Infections related to AIDS and tuberculosis can also lead to ileum inflammation, but chronic cases often point to Crohn's disease. Crohn's disease might manifest as a form of self-punishment following intense guilt. This stems from low self-esteem, feeling inadequate, and harboring self-disdain, thinking of oneself as worthless or less than nothing. Such individuals may believe that nobody loves them and that others want them to feel inferior. These feelings are compounded by experiencing a lack, whether material or emotional, and feeling that the object of that lack has been unjustly taken away. Fear of death can exacerbate these emotions, leading to inner rebellion. This, in turn, increases the fear of rejection by others. People with Crohn's disease often use the illness to gain the attention they feel they lack, filling the void in their self-esteem. Their low self-esteem leaves them energetically vulnerable in the abdomen area, allowing them to absorb negative energies from their surroundings. They reject themselves to the point where their abdomen becomes like a receptacle for negativity from others. They fail to occupy their space and resist situations, resulting in diarrhea. The severity of Crohn's disease reflects its impact on a fundamental aspect of life, signaling a need to work on self-esteem, personal identity, and one's place in the family or society. Improving self-esteem and finding one's rightful place can restore calm and harmony to life. Discovering one's true place provides natural protection from the environment. Life is beautiful, and everyone deserves to live it!
