MIGRAINE

Easing the Storm Behind the Eyes!

When a Migraine Is More Than Just a Headache

Migraines are not ordinary headaches — they are energy storms that disrupt life at every level. The throbbing pain, light and sound sensitivity, visual disturbances (aura), and nausea can feel unbearable. But beneath these physical symptoms lies something deeper: unprocessed emotions, ancestral patterns, and energy imbalances that medication alone rarely addresses.

Many clients come to me after trying conventional treatments yet sensing something “unseen” is contributing to their pain. Holistic migraine healing explores those deeper layers — emotional, energetic, and systemic — offering relief that is lasting, not just temporary.


The Energetic and Emotional Roots of Migraine

In my healing work, I’ve observed migraines often arise from yin‑yang imbalance in the body — an inner seesaw between overactivity (yang) and depletion (yin). When this balance tips, prana (life‑force energy) becomes congested in the head — particularly around the Ajna (brow) and crown chakras — forming what I call energy knots.


Patterns I Commonly See

  • Left‑sided migraines: Linked to suppressed grief, rejection, loneliness, overthinking, or unmet emotional needs connected to the mother.

  • Right‑sided migraines: Often tied to anger, trauma, inner emptiness, feeling unsupported, or unresolved father dynamics.

  • Both sides: Can involve looping thoughts, apathy, and deep exhaustion.


TCM Insights: Meridian Connections

  • Liver/Gallbladder (anger, frustration) → Migraines behind the eyes or temples.

  • Spleen (overthinking, worry) → Heaviness in the head, dull throbbing pain.

  • Kidneys (fear, insecurity) → Tension at the base of the skull or neck pain accompanying migraines.

These meridians reflect how unspoken emotions show up as physical pain in specific areas.


Mother/Father Wounds and Ancestral Patterns

Migraine patterns often echo unresolved family dynamics:

  • A child unconsciously carrying a parent’s grief or anger.

  • Hidden loyalties (“I will hold this pain for them”).

  • Generational trauma (rejections, losses) influencing energy flow in the brow and crown chakras.

When these hidden dynamics are honored and released, the body no longer needs to carry them — and migraines begin to soften.


BACH FLOWER PERSPECTIVE

Bach flower remedies recognize the different emotional tones behind migraines:

  • Explosive frustration vs. heavy hopelessness.

  • Silent pressure to hold everything together vs. despair at being overwhelmed.

  • Suppressed grief or fear beneath the pain.

(Bach flower remedies are gentle plant-based essences that harmonize emotional patterns, helping restore calm and resilience without suppressing feelings.)


PRANIC HEALING PERSPECTIVE

Pranic healing works by clearing congested energy in the head and replenishing depleted areas. Migraines often show as heavy, dense energy knots around the brow and crown chakras. Cleansing these areas restores prana flow and balances yin and yang — clients often describe the shift as moving from “tightness to lightness.”

(Pranic healing activates the body’s innate self-healing, easing both pain intensity and emotional stress linked to migraines.)


EFT (EMOTIONAL FREEDOM TECHNIQUES) PERSPECTIVE

EFT tapping helps release emotional charge and looping thoughts that fuel migraines. By tapping on meridian points, it calms the nervous system and resolves underlying stress patterns:

  • Overthinking or mental spirals leading up to attacks.

  • Emotional triggers like anger, grief, or pressure.

  • Hidden fears about when the next migraine will come.

(EFT gently rewires stress responses, helping the body find calm and prevent future flare-ups.)


FAMILY CONSTELLATION INSIGHTS

Family constellation work reveals hidden ancestral grief or unspoken pain that may manifest as migraines:

  • A grandparent’s sorrow silently carried by later generations.

  • Unacknowledged family losses (miscarriages, estrangements).

  • Unconscious loyalty to someone who suffered before.

By bringing these patterns to light and honoring them, migraines often lose their grip — bringing profound emotional and physical relief.


Relief Beyond Symptom Management

When energy knots dissolve and emotional patterns are released, clients often experience:

  • Reduced frequency and intensity of migraines.

  • Greater clarity and mental calm.

  • Less fear of “when the next one will come.”

  • A renewed sense of safety and emotional balance.
