Emotions have been scientifically proven to have a powerful effect on the immune system.
Researchers in medical schools in the United States and other countries have discovered that immune cells such as T-cells, B-cells and macrophages (the white blood cells) have receptors for neuropeptides.
Neuropeptides are created in our body every time we have a thought, and our immune cells listen for and react to the emotional dialog. Positive thoughts such as love, joy, happiness, forgiveness, and so forth, create health-promoting neuropeptides that boost the immune system, while negative thoughts such as fear, hate, jealousy, possessiveness, and so forth, create neuropeptides that candepress the immune system and lead to disease.
Negative emotions have also been shown to cause acidity in the tissues while positive emotions create alkalinity in them.
Tony Buzan explains in his cassette program, Brain Power, “There are thousands of documented studies of people who have recovered from illness simply through the power of the mind.” He goes on to say, “Children can make themselves ill, and give themselves nose bleeds merely at the thought of an upcoming test” and, “Many people give themselves rashes in stressful situations.”
Dr. Richard Anderson, N.D., N.M.D., states in book one of Cleanse & Purify Thyself: “Another factor in the ability to adapt a raw-food diet is emotions.
Remember, thoughts and feelings are the primal directive forces that control our bodies; this includes appetites and desires. Some people will never be rawfooders until they have transmuted certain emotions.”
Stress has been scientifically proven to cause many health problems due to its effects on the nervous system. A few of these problems include insomnia, poor digestion, a weakened immune system and cellular repair system. Stress dulls the sense of touch, lowers IQ, can be a factor in cancer and heart attacks, and makes people generally meaner.
The human mind is the transmitter of Consciousness.
As such, human consciousness functions much like a band of stations one might find on a radio set.
Some of the stations are easily identifiable, easily detectable with the tuning dial. The most commonly used and loudest channels would be analogous to the function of the conscious mind.
We are generally accustomed to listening to and communicating with a set number of channels of perception that we call “awareness”.
The human mind has an amazing capacity for storage. We immediately record everything that we experience. However, these memories, experiences, thoughts, behaviours, are not stored in the most commonly used channels of awareness.
The mind stores this information in a variety of sub channels. These channels are not commonly used and for the most part, are left to their own devices and forgotten unless some external stimulus triggers their resurrection.
This stored information has a profound effect upon our behaviour our health and the state of mind to the way we react to the world, our friends, family, even to ourselves is largely determined by the information that we store within the mind.
If you could only remember one thing from reading this is, If there is someone in your life towards whom you feel animosity and refuse to forgive, you are not hurting them, you are hurting yourself.
Forgive them and your health will benefit.
