What if a huge percentage of modern health symptoms – from hemorrhoids to heart attacks – trace back to one thing: not being able to say “no?”

Special biological programs relaying from the temporal lobes of your cerebral cortex are all about either:

• Masculine territory – problems with providing for and protecting what is so important to you that you’d give your life in devotion to it
• The feminine principle – problems feeling the container of devotion; feeling provided for and protected so that you can relax and flourish.

A “boundary” is the limit or edge of territory, and a boundary problem is an inability either asserting the territory (masculine), or feeling the existence of secure territory (feminine).

So a boundary problem is, for the masculine, an inability to say (or assert) “no.”

For the feminine, it’s an inability to feel the “no” (which makes it impossible to feel any “yes”).

Not having good boundaries means having biological conflict that express as both physical symptoms (bronchi, larynx, coronary vessels, stomach/ducts, rectum lining, urinary tract) and mental/behaviour symptoms (depression, mania, compulsions, constellation patterns).

Poor boundaries are so widespread in western civilization right now, that almost everyone has at least one temporal lobe conflict going on, and most people have two or more, in schizophrenic constellation.

But every one of these temporal lobe conflicts is underpinned by a self-devaluation of not being able to clearly sense or state “no.”

You’re not “fated” for this. You can be different from the norm, and a lot healthier! But you need to have good boundaries.

• good masculine boundaries: practice judging and discerning—make your “no” reliable enough to become a law.
• good feminine boundaries: practice feeling without judging—learn to sense contraction vs. expansion so you can trust the edge and relax into the yes.
