Hand Pain
Hand pain can come from many physical sources including arthritis, joint problems, injuries or tendon issues, or carpal tunnel and other wrist problems. The dexterity of our hands is vitally important to being able to live happily. Our sense of touch paramount to our well being. Our energy always wants to express itself outward, to connect, to experience touch and relationships with others but if we become hurt through these experiences, we can turn our energy inward and withdraw our love, which can create hand pain.
Overall, the hands represent our creative potential. It is how we express ourselves by creating what we want in the physical world. The energy from our heart chakra, runs through our shoulders, down our arms, into our hands so we can touch who we want, make what we want and express our heart’s impulses. For any hand pain it is important to ask ourselves, are we creating the reality we desire? Are we holding hands with who we love? Making the career we love? Are we creating the best environment for ourselves?
Children learn through experiencing with touch and receiving information through their hands. Have you stopped learning and growing? Could you study something new and find renewed interest in life?
More specifically the Right hand represents giving. The Left hand represents receiving.
Energy of the Hands – The Right Hand
If you have a pain in the right hand, ask yourself where are you struggling to give your energy? Do you not trust the person you are giving to? Have you given too much? Are you finding it hard to commit to something? Has someone taken your energy and made you feel trapped?
The right hand is also related to the masculine. intellectual, aggressive and assertive sides. It deals with reality, practical, logical and rational things. The right hand is known as the YANG side.
It can be related to the male figures in our life: husband, father, son, male friends and colleagues or of our own issues of masculinity.
In a woman it can be the conflict of trying to balance a career with being a mother and in a man it can be the conflict of competition.
Are you acting like your father? Or do you have an issue with male authority? Are you worried about letting your father down or his judgement so you aren’t reaching out.
Energy of the Hands – The Left Hand
If you have a pain in the left hand ask yourself are you able to receive? How do you feel if someone gives you a compliment? Do you ask for help? If you ask for help is it available?
The left hand is also related to the feminine side, our artistic, creative, gentle and intuitive sides. A pain in the left hand can be related to mother issues, wife, sister or your daughter, female friend or colleague or the feminine side of yourself. This is known as the YIN side. Difficulties on the left side in a man can indicate a conflict with expressing his caring side or ability to cry or comfort. In a woman it can indicate confusion with expressing femininity or living up to expectations as a mother or wife.
Are you acting like your mother? Are you not nurturing/mothering yourself properly?
Each finger has it’s own metaphysical meaning so if the pain is worse in a specific finger it can be related to a meridian or a chakra – please see my blog on Palm Chakras for more information.
Hand Meridians
The meridians that either begin or end on each finger are shown in the photo below. A pain in the thumb relates to blocked lung energy. The index finger the large intestine, the middle finger to our sex organs, the ring finger to our adrenals and thyroid and the little finger to the heart and small intestine energy. During ENERGY RESET training we learn how to reset each meridian through the hands and feet to clear illness and stress from the body.
Gently stimulating the tip of your fingers with massage can help to release blocked energy in your hands.
If you feel that your hand pain has a psychological, metaphysical basis then please seek help from a Kinesiologist, Energy Reset practitioner or other professional to clear this cause.
For joint pain, back pain and 50 common conditions please refer to my book Your Body Has The Answer for the meaning and many natural solutions.
