    About this ebook

    Featuring stunning colour illustrations of the energy of human organs and other body parts, this book is perfect for anyone interested in learning about the self-healing properties of the body and the psychic, emotional, and physical elements central to existence. The book provides a deeper understanding of the wider psychological function of each organ, including eyes, hands, hips, knees, shoulders, spine, and teeth, and explains how they act in concert within the body. The illustrations further enhance how to receive the message of each organ on an intuitive level, and a chart of healing crystals corresponding with each organ brings further information on how to interact with the organs energetically.

      Let Your Body Speak - Ewald Kliegel

      Preface

      When in 2008 the book Reflexzonen und Organsprache (Reflexology and the Language of the Organ) was published I had taken a new step into spiritual psychosomatic medicine. The organs do not only want to admonish us and remind us to do something better or different; they have so much more to say to us. Above all, though, they want to reveal themselves to us in their infinite beauty and perfection. Thus I knew that my archetypal approach to the organs via stories and symbols could be no more than a beginning. Indeed, the essences of the organs have much deeper roots.

      When a consciousness of spiritual and soul principles wants to manifest into reality it leads us through inspirations, coincidences and encounters. Thus in May 2009, during the authors’ meeting celebrating twenty-five years of the publishing company Neue Erde, I met the painter Anne Heng. I already knew her wonderful paintings from The Tree Angel Oracle and so I put my request to her – that together we could present the organs as beings in words and pictures. She was immediately enthusiastic, and from that point on this work has been characterized by, and allowed to develop an unbreakable group of, Us: the organs, Anne and me.

      Our organs want to be perceived as spiritual and physical base elements of our existence, as elemental beings.

      At the Frankfurt Book Fair in autumn 2009, Andreas Lentz of Neue Erde publishing was the fourth person to join. This Us has been continuously enriched by further people: by Hilde Fuhs with her translations of the organs into music from ancient sources; by Veronika Berkenhoff and Catrin Benecke with their inspired work on translating our contemplation of the organs into kinesiological terms; and by friends who have added to the alignment of the project with their thought-provoking input.

      A further valuable contribution to the events was made by Walter von Holst and Sita Andrea, who offered their know-how and their experiences in the field of crystal healing.

      For a long time as we worked on the book, when our friends asked exactly what these organ beings were we were not able to give a satisfactory answer. We were able to describe them though, which meant we could convey a fairly good impression of them. But several aspects of our explanations still remained cloudy. This changed instantly when we showed the paintings to our friends or had them read the texts. They all, without exception, responded by saying that the pictures and the words touched something within their soul.

      This confirmed to us once more that we were on the right track. Admittedly, the organs did not always make it easy for us. There were times when we did not manage a single line nor a single brushstroke, when adverse winds prevented us from writing and painting, when everything seemed to be blocked. Then again, there were (fortunately) plenty of times when everything seemed to flow effortlessly, when word nestled next to word and where a painting seemed to create itself, beautifully, more or less by itself. These differing experiences were of course created, or at least enhanced, by how in touch with ourselves we were, how far we trusted our inner guidance and how much room we gave these elemental beings to exist and develop within our own inner worlds.

      Our first work meeting in Anne’s studio was powered by an enormous joy. Through our work, the beauty of the essence of the organs was finally being perceived and appreciated. Our next task was to transfer this appreciation into a visible and readable work of art.

      We agreed that the spiritual beings of the organs would speak in first-person statements in order to best introduce and disclose themselves. We also realized that their personification could not serve as a vis-à-vis confronting the reader; instead, the beings of the organs want to invite the observer to tune in to their qualities and experience them directly. To facilitate tuning in to them more closely, the organs allowed us to depict them sometimes from the side and sometimes from behind. Thus was created a pull for the reader/viewer into the organs’ consciousness fields that lends the words and illustrations an even greater power.

      We then decided which organs would be represented in the book and selected the corresponding text and pictures; this process was often accompanied by inner conflicts. Through all these examinations of the deep inner processes we had gained the insight that we as humans are able to sense and experience the essence of the organs, that it is possible to describe and paint them. But there remained still something that worked on the mind but that was not tangible, something that we could not label.

      We finally realized that this is actually the most profound part of our whole project. Our mind is just not able to access this level of existence. Now, after finalizing the first selection of organs, we feel confident in agreeing with what a dear friend, Gottfried Hermann, said: that it was not us who created the illustrations and texts but that our task consisted in providing the organs with a means of expression. This did all happen through us, but it was not us who brought it into being. This also explains why every time we pick up the illustrations or the manuscript we are amazed all over again.

      We wish you much joy, health and a life of being in harmony with your organs.

      Introduction

      The body is the translator of the soul into the visible.

      CHRISTIAN MORGENSTERN¹

      Orientation Towards the Healing Field

      The languorous hush of the organs – that is how H. G. Gadamer defined health.² However, healing moves beyond this. Beyond the absence of physical and psychological discomforts, being whole is an experience or a state of being in which we are in touch with our deepest inner being. It is a lifelong process with many paths and one of these paths touches on the body and its organs. With what they have to tell us they enrich us: with self-respect, with the discovery of our potential, with a wonderful inner attunement and, of course, also with health.

      However, it
