Hi, I continue to read "You Can Heal Your Life" by Louise Hay. She explains now how the mental patterns create illnesses. What are these "bands of steel"? Thank you.
"THE HAIR represents strength. When we are tense and afraid, we often create those bands of steel that originate in the shoulder muscles and come up over the top of the head and sometimes even down around the eyes. The hair shaft grows up through the hair follicle. When there is a lot of tension in the scalp, the hair shaft can be squeezed so tightly that the hair can no longer breathe, and it dies and falls out."
