Stuck with Chronic Pain
This potential cause may astonish you

Some years ago, I had a very illuminating experience.
I’d been attending a weekly meditation group led by a psychic healer and mentor for a while. It was a wonderful group. Each week, we went on a different inner journey, which gradually acquainted us with the workings of the spiritual realms as we learned to trust our inner guidance.
In each meditation, we experienced amazing healing and magnificent connections with the higher beings of the Divine.
Even though I never wanted to miss a meeting, there were times when the heaviness within me felt so overwhelming that I wanted to stay in the comfort of my home.
One night, I felt particularly miserable. My chronic abdominal pain was intense, and I felt emotionally drained. I wavered about whether to go. It would have been so easy to stay on my couch, coddling my discomfort.
But the burden gnawed at me, and I knew staying home wouldn't fix it.
Somehow, I knew I was meant to be there, and I had to trust, even though there was no guarantee I would be set free of my misery.
The meditation's purpose was to cut etheric and astral cords with the support of Archangels Michael and Raphael.
I didn’t understand how the cords worked or how they affected me, but I wanted to learn.
I was looking forward to seeing my friends, but all I could do was sit there, trying to hold back tears that flowed by their own will.
As we began the mediation, our mentor guided us to bring our awareness to a cord ready to be removed.
She assured us we didn’t need to know where the cord was located or its origin. Our intention to be free of it was enough.
Under her guidance, we called on Archangel Michael to cut each of our cords. Once severed, we were invited to help remove them.
As soon as I focused on mine, to my amazement, I realized I could see that the cord’s root filled my entire abdominal area, and its stump protruded from my lower back.
It was a massive, solid, dark brown (almost black) tree-like root ball lodged within my body. Its stump was about six to eight inches wide and about ten to twelve inches long.
I was shocked at what I was seeing.
I immediately knew it was a cord between me and my alcoholic mother.
It looked and felt slimy, sticky, and heavy. Negative, energetic layers of my toxic relationship with her had created it. (If you’ve read my previous work, you’ll remember our relationship left much to be desired.)
Once it was out of my body, Archangel Michael dissolved it with his divine light.
It no longer existed.
Tears of gratitude poured freely. I was finally free from this hidden attachment to my mother.
But we still had one more step to complete the process.
With the help of Archangel Raphael, we needed to fill the space the cord had occupied with healing energies.
These appeared to me as a sparkling galaxy filled with green and white light. Their healing and soothing vibration was unlike anything I had seen or felt before.

My relief was immediate. My chronic abdominal pain was gone, and a sense of incredible lightness filled its void. For the first time in my life, I was free from the painful bloating and pressure inside my body.
I had no idea such relief was possible. I had felt so blocked and weighed down all those years. No amount of traditional talk therapy had come near this degree of physical and emotional freedom.
My self-esteem seemed to be perpetually in the gutter. I had always thought I was not good enough to receive love, feel happiness, or be free from inner suffering.
But this experience showed me that it wasn’t my fault. The damage caused by constant berating, emotional abandonment, and the chronic stress of my mother’s need to control me and keep me in my place had created this awful etheric structure that kept me stuck in those feelings long after I was an adult and living my own life.
After this experience, I understood beyond the shadow of a doubt how significant toxic cords can be to our health and well-being.
I also understood the power of setting an intention to heal and the importance of taking action, as well as the responsibility we have for our own well-being.
We are not taught how energy works within the human system (Or that we are energy beings to begin with).
In our Western world, we approach healing from a purely psychological and physical perspective, unaware that unseen damaging energetic ties are present and require severing to achieve deep healing.
My more than twenty years of conventional therapy had failed me in so many ways, and I hadn’t understood why. Later, I found out that according to Dr. Samuel Sagan, in his book Entity Possession, where he explains this phenomenon,
“…as long as the etheric cord remains with its inappropriate transfers of etheric energies and emotions, it is quite difficult to reach a real resolution...”
It’s no wonder that I couldn’t dig out from under my chronic pain and inner suffering.
Thankfully, my seemingly endless turmoil from years of living in a dysfunctional home had pushed me to seek with all my heart to find a way to be free of the heaviness of fear, insecurity, co-dependence, low self-esteem, and chronic physical discomfort.
Knowing it was removed and dissolved through healing meditation and the help of higher, divine beings is priceless.
Where there is a will, there is a way. If we genuinely yearn to heal, our spirit guides provide us with the right people and circumstances to show us a solution.
Years later, when I began studying entity clearing (more on that in a future article), I gained a better understanding of why that cord had formed within my etheric body.
But if you are new to this, here’s what you need to know:
Since we are beings of energy, on the metaphysical level, "…a cord is a kind of etheric/astral pipe through which energies and emotions circulate more or less constantly.”
The creation of etheric or astral cords is nothing to be feared. They naturally form when two people have strong emotional ties, such as between mother and child, siblings, friends, and romantic relationships.

"Any emotional exchange between two people creates a flow of astral energies. However, a cord is more than just a flow; it is a permanent circulation linking the two. It not only transmits emotional waves, but also life force, that is, etheric energies."
The etheric cord bond can be a pleasant, nourishing, and supportive aspect of a loving relationship.
Or, the cords can be harmful to one's well-being, highly suffocating, energy-draining, and even physically debilitating.
Without the meditation group and our mentor’s knowledge and expertise in calling on the Archangels to help, I would not have discovered the existence of such a cord, much less have had the tools to clear it.
Part of the value that comes with doing the work of awakening includes becoming aware of the inevitability of toxic energy and toxic people in our lives.
Once we are aware of them, it is our responsibility to heal or remove ourselves from them.
If something seems impossible for you to overcome, I invite you to consider that there may be invisible ties binding you to toxic people and situations, even if they are no longer a part of your life.
They don’t have to have left this world for you to be free of the poisonous connection. They can still be part of our lives, just in a less toxic way.
For me, it was as if, now that my mother had passed on from the physical world, the cord was unsustainable. It had nothing to support it.
But it still existed on my end, and it was still affecting me.
My soul’s task (one of them, anyway) was to become conscious of it and remove it with the help of the higher beings (Archangels) so I could live my life free from the weight of that unseen, festering tether.
This same promise of support from the Divine beings is just as accessible to you with the right support and guidance; you, too, can cut detrimental attachments between yourself and another living person.
Does cutting detrimental cords completely separate us from our loved ones?
My answer is no; it does not.
No harm will come to them or you. Under proper procedures, the cords will be cleared, and the remaining space will be filled with love and light.
Your relationship may change for the better, or it may naturally dissolve. Whatever is best for your and their souls' growth and evolution will happen.
When we are ready, the healing path presents itself like a winding road, bringing us to the people, places, and events that teach us and open us to a higher consciousness at work in our lives.
Sitting here as my future self, I am grateful for the courage and perseverance of my younger self in pushing through her fear and uncertainty and walking her path of the unknown.
If you choose, your chronic pain and suffering can be an incentive to learn more about healing on a metaphysical level and to take charge of your own health and well-being, opening you to the realization of your spiritual existence.
It might seem scary to take that first step, but I am here to light the way and show you it’s worth it.
If you want to live your best life and end your chronic pain and suffering, cutting cords to toxic people may be an essential key to improved health and well-being.
