It looks at the balance ....

Hi

Each chapter in this book is dedicated to the health of the organs
of one emotional center. For example, Chapter 4 looks at the
organs of the first emotional center—the bones, blood, organs of
the immune system, and skin—and helps you interpret what illness
in each of those organs means. It looks at the balance in your
life surrounding the core emotion associated with the organs. So,
in essence, if your sense of safety and security has been thrown
out of balance, you will likely become ill in your first emotional
center organs.

I have problems with figuring out what the author wanted to say in the bolded part of the sentence. I know it says that chapter 4 focuses on the balance in our lives, but I'm confused about the following part of the sentence?

I think the sentence following the bolded part explains it by giving an example. I confess I'm confused as to which is the cause and which is the effect. Either the illness in the specific group of organs causes an unbalance in the associated "emotions," or the unbalance in the specific group of emotions causes an illness in the associated group of organs.

In that sentence I read "surrounding" as "associated with," but unfortunately your author had already used that term. Emotion: smile
