Repressing and suppresing your emotions weakens the life functions carried out by your brain stem.  This is also a detrimental effect on your natural healing ability, and explains why over 85% of modern people suffer from stress related problems.

Ilchi Lee says this about the brain stem.  It seems like supressing and repressing our emotions come from habits we picked up through our families and society.  Big girls don’t cry, don’t be a tattle tale, children are to be seen not heard.  These sayings have their  purpose to try to create harmony in society yet it seems that it really causes damage in the body.
