• Anger (also resentment, irritability and frustration) affect the liver.  This can result in headaches, dizziness, high blood pressure and stomach/spleen problems.
• Fear and fright affect the kidneys and can also cause problems with the ears.
• Sadness and grief affect the lungs.
• Pensiveness or over thinking (using too much mental effort) affects the spleen.  This can lead to worry, fatigue and an inability to concentrate.
• Joy (over-excitement or agitation) affects the heart.  This can result in agitation, insomnia and palpitations.

Cleansing the emotions acts as a catalyst for cleansing the body.  When we suppress emotions, the spiritual law of transformation indicates the emotions do not disappear without a trace; but rather, their energy transforms internally into something negative.  We react to negative emotions in several different ways and each of these ways can lead us to very different outcomes.  Each emotion carries a certain charge of energy and if this emotion is negative as well as unexpressed, the vibration of these emotional energies will settle in and block our aura as well as attract and form similar negative vibrations.
