Emotions play such a vital role in both wellness and illness, that to ignore them in any outlook on health is a mistake. While emotions are natural and important parts of life, when taken to excess they can be damaging to the body.
When emotions are extremely abrupt, intense or persistent, they may over time produce functional disorders of the organs by upsetting the harmonious balance of blood and energy. We are talking here of excessive feelings of Joy, Anger, Melancholy, Anxiety, Grief, Fear, and Fright. Let's take a look at each for examples.
Anger causes an adverse flow of liver energy. Under normal conditions, the liver purifies blood and sends it downward. However, during moments of prolonged anger, the liver sends blood upward, and this can cause a flushed face, red eyes, headache or fainting. This is why angry people tend to have red faces and also complain of headache pain.
