Living with an autoimmune disease can feel like a constant battle. Your body, which is supposed to protect you, turns against you, attacking your own cells and tissues. It can be a confusing, frustrating, and even lonely journey. But here at Inner Journeys, we’re dedicated to helping you explore and heal the root causes of autoimmune conditions in a compassionate, holistic way.
Autoimmune diseases, over 100 of them, prominent Rheumatoid arthritis, Lupus, Crohn’s disease, Rheumatoid arthritis, Psoriasis, Psoriatic arthritis, Thyroid diseases, including Graves’ disease (hyperthyroidism), Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (hypothyroidism), Type 1 Diabetes and Multiple Sclerosis (MS), represent a complex relationship between the body and mind.
Autoimmune diseases can impact every part of your life, from your physical health to your emotional well-being, relationships, and sense of identity. We understand the struggles you’re facing, and our goal is to support you on every level—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Together, we’ll uncover the underlying imbalances and emotional blockages that may be contributing to your condition and empower you with tools to bring your body and mind back into harmony.
At Inner Journeys, we recognize that true healing goes beyond symptom management. Our approach integrates evidence-based hypnotherapy with profound spiritual and emotional healing modalities to address the whole person—mind, body, and spirit.
Many clients who come to us for autoimmune support have tried conventional methods without fully finding relief. We believe this is because autoimmune diseases are often tied to deep-seated emotional wounds, stress, and unresolved traumas. By blending hypnotherapy with Inner Child Healing, Past Life Regression, Akashic Records Healing, Somatic Therapy, and more, we help our clients tap into the root causes of their ailments, offering transformative insights and promoting profound self-healing.
Exploring the Deeper Causes of Autoimmune Disease
Autoimmune diseases are complex conditions in which the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own cells, perceiving them as foreign threats. This can result in chronic inflammation, fatigue, pain, and various systemic issues. Autoimmune conditions often stem from a complex blend of physical, emotional, and psychological factors. Many of us carry unhealed emotional wounds, unresolved traumas, and limiting beliefs, sometimes going all the way back to childhood. These hidden stresses can create disharmony in the body’s systems over time, eventually showing up as physical symptoms. Understanding the potential root causes of autoimmune conditions helps us develop a more effective, holistic treatment plan. While the exact cause of autoimmune diseases remains elusive, several factors have been identified that contribute to their development:
1. Genetic Predisposition: Individuals with a family history of autoimmune disorders such as lupus and multiple sclerosis (MS) are more likely to develop them. However, genes alone don’t determine the outcome—environmental and emotional factors also play a key role.
2. Inherited Patterns and Ancestral Wounds: We may unconsciously carry unresolved traumas from our ancestors, passed down through generations. These unresolved issues can shape our thoughts, behaviours, and even physical health.
3. Chronic Stress and Emotional Suppression: Persistent stress affects immune function by disrupting hormonal and nervous system responses. Chronic stress can weaken the immune system over time, increasing susceptibility to autoimmune reactions.
When we suppress emotions like anger, sadness, or fear, it takes a toll on our bodies. Over time, this emotional energy can get “stuck,” potentially triggering or worsening autoimmune responses.
4. Early Childhood Experiences: Experiences during childhood, such as neglect, abuse, or a lack of emotional nurturing, can create deep-rooted beliefs about ourselves that lead to ongoing self-criticism, self-doubt, or a sense of unworthiness. This can make the body turn against itself, as it aligns with our internal beliefs.
5. Unresolved Emotional Trauma: Trauma from any period of life—whether from an accident, loss, abuse, or any other life-changing event—can impact our immune system and can lead to self-attack mechanisms. Many individuals with autoimmune conditions carry subconscious patterns of self-blame, unprocessed grief, or feelings of inadequacy, which are stored in the body. The unprocessed emotions associated with these events can linger and affect our health in unexpected ways.
6. Environmental Toxins: Exposure to certain chemicals, heavy metals, and pollutants can trigger autoimmune responses in genetically susceptible individuals. Environmental factors such as diet, pollution, and lifestyle choices influence our health and immune responses.
7. Mind-Body Disconnection: For many people, autoimmune diseases are a manifestation of disconnection between the mind and body. Over time, this can lead to unresolved emotional stress stored physically in the body, resulting in an overactive immune system.
6. Past Life or Karmic Imprints: From a spiritual perspective, unresolved karmic lessons or past-life experiences can manifest in the physical body. Past Life Regression and Akashic Records Healing explore these soul-level factors, helping individuals release energy from past lives that might be influencing their current health.
7. Other causes: Weight, smoking, certain medications etc.
Understanding these deeper influences allows us to approach healing in a way that’s both powerful and transformative, addressing not just the symptoms, but also the root causes.
Inner Journeys is here to help clients explore and address the root causes within a supportive, holistic framework. By integrating mind-body therapies, we work to gently uncover and release these underlying emotional and energetic blockages, allowing the body to experience a new level of balance and healing.
Integrated Hypnotherapy for Autoimmune Healing
At Inner Journeys, we combine the wisdom of ancient healing practices with modern, evidence-based therapeutic techniques to create a holistic treatment approach to address autoimmune diseases comprehensively.
1. Hypnotherapy: Reprogramming the Subconscious Mind for Balance
Hypnotherapy is the core of our approach to autoimmune healing. In deeply relaxed states, we guide clients to release stored emotions, reduce chronic stress, and foster a balanced immune response. Research shows that hypnotherapy can help decrease inflammation, promote relaxation, and create positive mental frameworks that encourage healing. By guiding clients into a state of deep relaxation, hypnotherapy helps reduce stress, balance the immune response, and reprogram the subconscious mind with positive beliefs. Read more
2. Inner Child Healing: Addressing Deep-Seated Emotional Wounds
Many autoimmune conditions are linked to unresolved emotional wounds from childhood. Through Inner Child Healing, we guide you to connect with, understand, and heal your younger self. This work can help you release feelings of unworthiness, guilt, or self-blame that may be impacting your health. Autoimmune diseases often correlate with childhood experiences where unmet needs or emotional wounds were left unaddressed and learnt to internalize stress. Inner Child Healing enables clients to revisit these formative years, release stored pain, and nurture self-compassion. As they heal the inner child, clients often find relief from physical symptoms as well.
Example: Maya, who struggled with psoriasis, discovered during an Inner Child Healing session that she had repressed feelings of inadequacy stemming from childhood experiences of rejection. By reconnecting with her younger self and providing the love and acceptance she never received, Maya began to see improvements in her skin condition.
Inner Child Healing offers a safe space for clients to reconnect with their inner child, release past pain, and establish a foundation of self-acceptance and compassion. Read more
3. Past Life Regression Therapy: Releasing Karmic Patterns
Sometimes, the root of our physical issues lies in unresolved experiences from past lives. Through Past Life Regression, we explore these deeper layers of your soul’s history, helping you release karmic patterns and blockages that may be manifesting as physical symptoms in this life.
Past Life Regression Therapy (PLRT) allows clients to explore karmic blockages that may be contributing to their physical symptoms in this life. By uncovering unresolved patterns from past lives, clients can release emotional or energetic attachments that may be impacting their current health. Past Life Regression allows individuals to explore experiences from previous lives that may be impacting their present health. This can include unresolved emotions, karmic debts, or patterns of self-sacrifice and guilt. By releasing these patterns, clients can alleviate symptoms related to the immune system. Read more.
A client dealing with chronic fatigue related to an autoimmune disorder discovered a past life where he carried the burden of caring for others at his own expense. By releasing this karmic attachment, Daniel started feeling lighter and more energized, experiencing fewer symptoms over time.
4. Akashic Records Healing (Karmic Healing): Understanding the Soul’s Lessons
The Akashic Records hold the history of our souls across lifetimes. By accessing these records, we can understand and heal karmic imbalances, release energetic blocks, and gain insights into how past experiences are impacting your current health.
For those who believe in the soul’s journey across lifetimes, the Akashic Records offer a powerful way to understand the soul-level origins of autoimmune symptoms. Accessing the Akashic Records provides a deeper understanding of one’s soul journey, revealing any karmic lessons or patterns related to the current health condition. By gaining insight and healing through the Akashic Records, clients can release patterns of self-attack, opening up a pathway for physical healing. Read more
When a client struggling with Multiple Sclerosis accesses their Akashic Records and uncovered patterns of self-sacrifice and unresolved anger from previous lives. As we work to heal these patterns, they found a renewed sense of peace, which positively impacted her physical health and well-being.
5. Somatic Therapy: Releasing Trauma Stored in the Body
The body holds memories of trauma and emotional pain. Somatic Therapy helps us release these stored tensions through gentle physical and energetic practices, reconnecting you with your body in a safe and healing way.
Autoimmune diseases are often linked to trauma held within the physical body. Somatic Therapy involves mindful techniques to release these stored tensions and trauma, which can ease physical symptoms and improve emotional well-being. This approach helps clients reconnect with their bodies and release cellular-level tension. Somatic Therapy enables the release of this trauma at a cellular level, helping clients reconnect with their bodies and reduce physical symptoms. Somatic practices encourage emotional release through breathwork, movement, and gentle body awareness techniques. Read more
Jaspreet, who experienced frequent autoimmune flares, used Somatic Therapy to process unaddressed trauma from an abusive relationship. By reconnecting with his body and releasing stored pain, he gradually experienced fewer symptoms and greater resilience in his physical health.
6. Shadow Work
Shadow Work helps you explore and integrate the “shadow” parts of yourself—those parts that you may have suppressed or judged. When we bring these aspects to light, it can alleviate stress and inner conflict, helping your body feel more aligned and less reactive.
7. Integrated Eye Movement Therapy (IEMT): Releasing Emotional Imprints
IEMT is highly effective for reducing the emotional intensity of traumatic memories. In autoimmune cases, unresolved emotional memories can be at the core of immune dysregulation. IEMT allows clients to release these memories and build a healthier emotional landscape, which supports physical healing. IEMT uses eye movements to process and neutralize emotional responses to traumatic memories. This technique is helpful for individuals whose autoimmune symptoms are connected to unprocessed memories or past traumas. By easing the emotional intensity of these memories, clients can experience relief from physical symptoms. Read more
8. Mindfulness and Meditation: Fostering a Calm and Balanced Mind
Mindfulness practices and meditation encourage clients to develop an awareness of their thoughts and emotions, enabling them to remain present rather than reactive. Research indicates that meditation can lower inflammation and reduce stress, which directly benefits immune function.
9. Dietary and Lifestyle Adjustments: Supporting Physical Health
Although our focus is on mind-body-spirit healing, we also guide clients toward dietary and lifestyle choices that support their immune system. Reducing inflammatory foods, managing stress, and embracing supportive routines can complement the spiritual and emotional work they do with us.
