Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)
ALS is a syndrome marked by muscle weakness and atrophy. This disease is caused by the degeneration of nervous tissue in the brain and spinal cord, and it results in progressive muscle weakness. It means that we believe we are not strong enough to do what we came to do here on earth. The belief in our weakness in the face of our purpose comes from fear, guilt, rebellion or sacrifice as a form of resistance. We have the mistaken belief that we have to accomplish our purpose all on our own, which, of course, would prove to be too much for us. If we ask for help to achieve our purpose then our body will not feel the strain of going it alone.

"In the Psychology of Vision, health issues can give us clues about what is going on in our subconscious minds. It is sort of like a psychiatrist doing dream analysis – physical symptoms can also be read as symbols for the conflicts in our minds. Healing the emotional conflict certainly doesn’t hurt a person’s chances of healing physically, and there is a lot of anecdotal evidence that it is helpful, but we have not done any research studies on the subject, and we do not make any claims.
The bloggers claim that us looking at the metaphors of illness with people (similar to Louise Hay’s work) is actually us blaming them for having their symptoms. This, of course, would have no value for the client – blaming a person for their illness is completely counterproductive to their healing and wellbeing. Taking accountability, on the other hand, gives the client power in their life."

Lency really doesn't get why people would be upset, does she? But at least she managed to destroy the credibility of the whole "metaphors" scam. Her statement reveals a total disconnect from real people.
