Becoming aware of our inner song can reduce the intensity of its negative effects, leading to less stress, better health and more harmony in our lives.
by Dr. Rajan Sankaran
Sankaran explains that our experience and perceptions of life’s stresses are shaped by an inner pattern, or “song,” connected to one of the three kingdoms in nature — animal, plant or mineral. Revealing itself as a constant underlying sensation felt in both the mind and the body and expressed through illness and chronic ailments, this inner song of recurring reactive patterns — be it that of a competitive lion, a sensitive daisy or structured phosphorus — drives our emotions, dreams, ambitions, careers and relationships, and is the underlying factor behind why stress affects each of us so differently.
Explaining that there are seven levels to our experiences, Sankaran provides techniques to decode the words and gestures we use to describe our pain, emotions and health conditions, allowing us to probe deeper into our experiences of stress and illness to determine what animal, plant or mineral is “singing” within us.
He shows how this core identity — the Sensation Method of diagnosis he developed — can be used by homeopathic physicians to treat our problems at their source. Becoming aware of our inner song can reduce the intensity of its negative effects, leading to less stress, better health and more harmony in our lives.
