Mind Your Health, Heal Your Body
Mind Your Health, Heal Your Body explores why people become ill, the mind/body connection, and alternative methods for healing. The modern day health care system has a difficult time treating the cause of many illnesses, most often treating only symptoms. Because Western health care operates under a misguided paradigm regarding health, it has become one of the largest causes of illness and death in the United States, largely due to excessive use of drugs, surgery, and unnecessary diagnostic tests. The book, in contrast, looks at Eastern medicine, examining the holistic approach of treating mind, body, spirit, and emotions, and the proper flow of energy. Western science is beginning to understand the principles underlying Eastern medicine. Optimum health depends upon a good immune system that can be adversely affected by the mind, emotions, and stress. For example, the book gives clear evidence that most back pain is caused by repressed emotions. If our mind can cause illness, the mind can also heal the body, as demonstrated by the placebo effect, biofeedback, and hypnosis. Western medicine ignores the spiritual relationship to health that the book explores, suggesting that there may be a spiritual meaning underlying many illnesses. We are never too old to change our life style in order to achieve optimum health.In fact it is possible to slow down the aging process through proper diet, exercise, and positive thoughts. Techniques are discussed on how to change emotions and attitudes that can optimize one s health. Science is slowly giving credence to the benefits underlying holistic health care that is discussed in Mind Your Health, Heal your Body.
