Our body constantly talks to us, indicating what we need to work on:
- dreams warn us
- poses during sleep,
- pain and illness.
You just need to learn to hear your body and understand its signals.
I greet you, friends, on the site about the phenomenon of sleep, health, quality of life. Today I propose to talk about the connection between emotions and diseases.
Any even minor pain or unpleasant situation is a product of negative emotions and thoughts of a person.
When health problems occur, each of us is faced with a choice:
Back in 1981, leading neuropsychologists led by Roger Sperry established scientifically:
But, as you know, our thoughts begin with emotions that cause a physical and mental response in the body.
The body's response to emotions. How to react correctly
What emotions do you feel most often? Observe how you feel.
If you are often irritated, fear, angry, annoyed, make plans for revenge, or experience resentment and anger, in what form will you receive the response from the Universe?
The answer will be conflict, misery, poverty. The body will respond with pain and disease.
Aggression and anger provoke an increase in blood pressure, problems with the cardiovascular system.
Annoyance can lead to the development of allergies.
Irritation will result in dry skin, skin diseases, problems with nails and hair, and stomach problems.
Anxiety will disrupt the coordination of movements, slow down reactions, diseases of the heart and blood vessels.
By the way, constant anxiety is one of the causes of night food syndrome, in which people wake up at night from hunger and are not able to fall asleep without a snack.
Stinginess will lead to stomach problems, dehydration, edema.
Resentment causes colds, runny nose, sore throat, respiratory system diseases. For example, snoring intensifies if a person is offended by something.
Stubbornness leads to hearing impairment, joint disease, decreased body flexibility, muscle spasms.
Anxiety can lead to hormonal imbalance, diseases of the pancreas.
“Everything is fine, I trust the process of life! Worry is unnecessary."
Dissatisfaction with oneself, belittling oneself, self-criticism are very harmful, they provoke gynecological diseases, arthritis, hormonal disorders.
Indecision - problems with gums, teeth.
A feeling of hopelessness and defenselessness, there is no one to rely on - osteochondrosis, scoliosis and other back diseases.
Anxiety about the past, unwillingness to look into the future - visual impairment, more often myopia.
Fear - infectious diseases, insomnia, disorders of the kidneys, in the solar plexus area.
Psychosomatic theory of the origin of the disease
"Psychosomatic" means: soul (psycho, Greek) and body (soma, somatos).
This term was introduced into medicine by the German psychiatrist Johann Heinroth, who believed that negative emotions that have stuck in a person's memory or are often repeated in his life poison the soul, undermine health, and shape the corresponding events.
This pattern was noticed by Plato, the ancient Greek philosopher. His opinion: soul and body are one. The authors of Ayurveda, doctors of the Ancient East and China adhered to the same views.
The psychosomatic idea was supported and developed by famous psychiatrists - Franz Alexander and Sigmund Freud, they believed that
The theory of the psychosomatic origin of diseases was scientifically proven by the Nobel laureate English neurophysiologist Charles Sherrington.
Doctors often state the fact that all physiological indicators in a person are normal, but he does not feel well. Doctors call such conditions functional, you can get rid of them without medication, by changing your inner mood and revising your lifestyle.
When negative emotions give way to positive ones, pains go away by themselves.
Most likely, we need to change our attitude to the problem that causes us anxiety (resentment, anger, fear), to work on our emotions and thoughts.
The main thing is to hear this signal of the body and find the source of anxiety in time, until health suffers.
Many, unfortunately, dismiss these "bells": the head ached - they drank the painkiller, the neck or back hurts - they used the ointment.
Nobody cancels the drugs, but it is better to supplement them with "debriefing", to understand the cause of the pain, until it turns from a harmless psychosomatic into a more serious illness.
