From the point of view of academic medicine, insulin resistance is a condition in which the body's cells lose sensitivity to insulin – a hormone responsible for lowering blood sugar levels. The pancreas, wanting to "open" the cells to glucose, produces more and more insulin, which leads to its overload and increases the risk of type 2 diabetes. Glucose, instead of powering the cells, circulates in the blood, causing high sugar levels.
However, Recall Healing view this condition differently. According to Recall Healing, every disease is treated as a biological survival program. According to this perspective, our automatic brain does not analyze whether our beliefs are correct – it simply reacts to them, trying to help us survive a situation we perceive as threatening.
Keyword: RESISTANCE
In insulin resistance, the most important concept is resistance. Since cells "do not listen" to insulin, it means that biologically they resist some authority or situation. Why does glucose remain in the blood? Because glucose is energy for fight or flight. The brain blocks sugar storage because it feels threatened and wants you to have fuel in your muscles, ready for immediate use.
This also explains the chronic fatigue that often accompanies this condition. If you subconsciously resist something 24 hours a day, you use up huge amounts of energy on it.
Remember this:
Insulin resistance is not a malfunction of your body, it is your subconscious, biological protection program against something you have to constantly fight against.
4 Main biological conflicts of insulin resistance
According to information contained in sources, we distinguish four key emotional conflicts behind insulin resistance:
Conflict of resistance and defense: A feeling that you must defend yourself against something or "dig your heels in". An example could be a child forced to go to kindergarten or an employee under constant pressure from a boss.
Fear and disgust: A situation that arouses your revulsion, but you feel that you cannot escape from it (e.g., a toxic relationship or a difficult work environment). You then put up passive resistance because you feel trapped.
Loneliness in the fight: The belief that "I have to do everything myself" and no one will help me. The body accumulates maximum glucose so that you have the strength to fight for survival on your own. This conflict is strongly linked to the development of type 2 diabetes.
Conflict of sweetness and love: In recall healing, sugar symbolizes love, tenderness and the sweetness of life. If you subconsciously believe that love is dangerous, hurtful or you do not deserve it, your cells will close to sugar (love) out of fear of pain.
Why is Your Body Holding Glucose in Your Blood?
From a biological perspective, insulin resistance is not a mistake, but a survival strategy. Your brain believes you are in a state of permanent threat (you are fighting someone or resisting something).
The "Fuel-in-Readiness" Mechanism:
Cell Blockade: The brain orders cells to "close the door" to insulin so that sugar is not stored (burned for current energy).
Sugar in Circulations: Glucose circulates in the blood, being instantly available fuel for muscles in case of a sudden fight or flight necessity.
Healing begins at the moment when you feel and realize that "you can finally lower your guard."
Why is it so hard to lose weight?
With insulin resistance, there is often difficulty in losing weight. This is due to the fact that for the brain fat tissue is protective armor. As long as the emotional conflict is active, the brain will block weight loss, treating extra kilograms as a defense mechanism against a perceived attack.
How to deprogram this process?
The healing process begins with realizing the conflict and precisely locating the "enemy" in your environment (it could be a boss, mother-in-law, partner, and sometimes your own unfulfilled ambitions). It is worth asking yourself four key questions:
Mini-Self-Coaching
1. What or who am I defending myself against so much?
2. In what situation do I feel forced to do things against myself?
3. Whose authority am I subconsciously trying to reject?
4. Where in my life is there a lack of a sense of security and "sweetness"?
The key to working with the symptom is acceptance. It does not mean giving up or agreeing to injustice, but acknowledging the facts: "it is what it is, it was what it was". Often, realizing that we are fighting windmills instantly changes the tension in the body. We take off the armor because we understand that the danger has passed (or we can set a boundary directly, and not through the hidden resistance of the body).
Only when you accept the situation, you stop using energy for resistance and can make a conscious decision about what to do about it and how to move forward, and the blood test parameters naturally return to normal.
Challenge for this week
The next time you reach for something sweet "out of nerves" or feel a sudden energy drop, pause for a moment. Take a deep breath and ask yourself: What or who am I fighting today? What is currently missing in my life? Write down the first thought that comes to your mind.
