Gastritis

Inflammation of the stomach is read through the gut's job of taking in and "stomaching" life. One systematic framework maps the stomach, duodenum and pancreas to a single lower-thoracic vertebra and groups their disorders together, while the surrounding solar-plexus centre carries anger, control, and a particular fear - of a vicious, contemptuous, mocking or coercive person or situation one feels under. The stomach cannot stomach what feels false or domineering: anger at being lied to, or the dread of someone whose scorn or power one is subject to, inflames it. The short explanation's "anger at lies" is that refusal to swallow falsehood, with fear of the domineering close beneath. Relief is described as approving of oneself and feeling safe, and releasing both the anger and the fear of those one feels under.

Example from the findings: the inflamed stomach is read as unable to swallow falsehood or the scorn of a domineering person one feels subject to.
