Before I retired I was a medical professional and then a medical journalist for many years. This afforded me the opportunity to speak with some of the pioneers of the mind/body concepts: people like doctors Kenneth Pelletier, Joan Borysenko and Emmett Miller. I also had the opportunity to speak with famous spiritual teachers, some who were also physicians.
If I could distill their collective wisdom this is the synopsis...in part:
When a human fails to live according to their internal truth and in harmony their body and mind will express the conflicts in real symptoms
When we live a life of distractions and denial so we are unwilling or unable to listen to our spirit and our inner wisdom we pay a price with our health
Man is the only, only entity in the universe that can chose to live out of harmony
Childhood stress,being over protected or ignored will create a person with survival skills that will not work for an adult. When we carry these forward they can be in direct conflict with our True Self
While major stressors can cause health problems most breakdowns are a death from a thousand paper cuts. It is our chronic behaviors, beliefs, attitudes and cosmology that are the most destructive.
Our true self and spirit always wins – even if it kills us!
