“After discovering Wilhelm Reich's insights on natural motility and blocked spontaneous movement, I connected IBS to his concept of Vegetative Equilibrium. Reich taught that neuroses arise when the body and mind lose their balanced energy state, stifled by social and religious repression. This creates physical armoring. The imbalance blocks natural energy discharge and fluid expression. It breeds psychological strain and physical ailments like mine.”
