I got into this nasty fight with a close friend of more than 15 years, we hardly talk to each other now but see each other every day at work. 3 months ago I came down with a very rare and painful disease. A spiritual guide, someone who works with chakras told me that my former friend is so envious of me that it might have made me sick. Does anyone believe that this could be possible?

Bitterness is what can make you sick....it's like drinking poison and expecting the other person to dye from it. Forgiveness is a way to get rid of bitterness and any illness it may cause. Forgiveness after that long a time isn't easy. Pray and ask God to help you forgive.

It could, but it's more likely some feelings you have for them would be affecting you, just as their envy is more likely to affect them physically. You see the word disease actually originally comes from dis-ease (not at ease, uneasy) which can refer to many things other than just physical ailments.
Perhaps it is actually that you are holding onto something from this arguement that you need to let go of.

That remind me of the older ladies from various parts of the world, blessing the house with burning olive leaves, and wearing a figa to protect them from the evil eye.
No it is your own feelings that can make you sick.
Stress causes the body to produce cortisol, which causes your body to produce higher white blood cell count, which attacks various organs. Recently I learned that the adreanal gland is also affected, causing weight gain.

Could it be the other way around, that you are envious or angry enough, and bottling it inside has become a cancer? Forgiveness, that is the only way to truly heal your soul...the body is just a temple for our souls.

"A sound heart (Healthy, tranquil mind) is life to the body,
but envy is rottenness to the bones."--Prov. 14:30
Envy (and unforgiveness) in your own heart destroys physical health. Someone else's envy towards you will not harm you, only them. Search your own heart to see if you have unforgiveness toward this person.

I don't know if that's possible, but it is probably possible for YOU to be so envious of someone that YOU become sick.

I believe the stress from perhaps being envious of someone can drive you to illness!
I am very sorry about your plight. You may not be comfortable with my praying for you, but I respectfully ask for your forgiveness in doing so anyway.

I think your "healer" got a bad batch or somethin. You're sick because of either bacteria or a virus. Go see your doctor.

No. That's a silly superstition. I pray the Lord will heal you, and heal the rift between you and your friend.
