The problem
Rheumatoid arthritis is a long-term condition that causes pain, swelling and joint stiffness - usually in the hands, feet and wrists. It’s a frustrating condition which can make simple everyday tasks very difficult.
Some periods may be worse than others, when the condition ‘flares’ up.
These flares can be hard to predict but it is possible with treatment for decrease their frequency and help to prevent long term damage to the joints.
Sometimes rheumatoid arthritis can also trigger general symptoms including tiredness and weight loss.

How it affects you
Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disorder in which the immune system rather unhelpfully identifies key organic tissues as dangerous pathogens and neutralises them before they can do their good work.
Over time, the condition gets sufficiently acute meaning that we end up experiencing a loss of cartilage and bone tissues and major pain in our joints.
The inflammatory response is a result of the overburdened, mistakenly hyperactive immune system.
Medicated treatments for rheumatoid arthritis can have some pretty drastic side effects, whilst more natural treatments for rheumatoid arthritis can provide all of the relief and none of the payoffs.

How can Beeja help?
Certain dietary changes and exercise can make a significant difference. But if you really want to get to the heart of the matter, then Beeja meditation will help on many levels.
It will reduce the stress which so often aggravates this condition.
It will allow the immune system to return to a more balanced mode of operation. This results in a softening of the inflammatory response and forms part of a long-term natural treatment for rheumatoid arthritis.
It is also an effective pain management tool that will release the necessary endorphins to reduce the severity of the discomfort.
Calcium balance will be restored and our bodies will be less inclined to break down too much bone structure. The additional calcium supplies will also help nourish our organs, which can be strained when we have rheumatoid arthritis.
Meditation also reduces our levels of free radicals; a significant causal factor of arthritic symptoms. It also increases our natural desire to stop smoking, which has been shown to be a crucial environmental factor, both as a cause and an aggravator of symptoms.
