Healing Notes
IBS often reflects chronic hypervigilance and sympathetic nervous system dominance. GNM associates it with indigestible fear, layered conflict, digestive identity stress, self-devaluation, and territory-related conflicts that alternate between suppression and urgency. Louise Hay links IBS to fear and difficulty letting go, while Karol Truman emphasizes hypervigilance and self-abandonment. Developmental trauma and emotionally unpredictable environments frequently contribute. Spiritually, IBS reflects inner instability, difficulty surrendering, and feeling emotionally unsafe within one's own inner temple.
