Mind, Body and Health

Trust reverses our disease
an article by Dr. Amrit Vallabh


The religious scriptures keep saying, "Life comes from the mind." But until a foreigner comes along with empirical data, we can't believe it.

Louis L. Hay, after in-depth study has documented mental causes and remedies for each and every disease.

The fact is, while we avoid toxins through food or water we're oblivious to when we let dangerous poisons into our minds. Criticism, anger, resentment and guilt are some of the most dangerous negative patterns.

For instance, criticism indulged in long enough will often lead to diseases such as arthritis. Long-held resentment festers and eats away at the self and can lead to tumors and cancer. Guilt always seeks punishment and leads to pain.


The good news is that we can choose to take part in our own healing process. It does not matter how long we have had negative patterns, illness, a rotten relationship or money worries, we can begin to make a change today.

The mental causes for some diseases are interesting:

Disease	Mental Causes
Lower back pain	Fear of money shortage
High blood pressure	Longstanding emotional problem unsolved
Headaches	Self-criticism, fear
Heart problems	Long-standing emotional problems, lack of joy, stress and strain
Knee problems	Stubborn ego and pride, inability to adjust
Neck problems	Refusing to see other sides of a question
Thyroid	Humiliation, "I never get to do what I want to do"
Tumours	Nursing old hurts and shocks
Ulcer	Fear that you are not good enough
Diabetes	Longing for what might have been, deep sorrow
Fibroids, cysts	Nursing a hurt from a partner, a blow to feminine ego

The best cure that can be prescribed for most of these diseases?


"FORGIVENESS"!
It releases our toxins and heals us.
