Emotions and Health

Emotions have a huge impact on our body and our body fights hard with its own chemical factors as well as with our psychological factors to solve any dis-ease that occurs.  Most of the cases, when the psychological factor is identified and solved, resetting of the chemical reaction becomes much easier.

 Whenever a “dis-ease” happens to our body, one of the major cause is an obstructed or incorrect thought patterns which happens inside us.  When it accumulates over a period of time, it leads to major issues.  If we can identify the incorrect thought pattern and correct it, the “dis-ease” which we face would move out of us and would help us to lead a healthy and happy life.

 Fortunately, a lot of people have done research in this field and have identified illness which are related to certain type of emotions and have suggested ways (both psychological and physiological) which could help in our body to heal itself.

 I have tried to put together information which I have gathered from various text to provide one consolidated list for some of the “dis-ease” which we face often in our daily life.
