Mind Body Disorders
Mind Body disorders are a category of health condition which has plagued mankind throughout history. Symptoms caused by mind body interactions have always existed and almost every medical system, regardless of how primitive, has recognized the mind’s influence over the physical body. In order to be an effective and successful healer in any art or science, it is vital to understand the methods in which the mind can and does influence the physical anatomy.

Background on Mind Body Disorders
The human organism is not a machine. A human is defined as a physical body, an intellectual mind and a emotional spirit. The intellect and the spirit are closely linked to their functional organ, the brain. However, the intellect resides primarily in the conscious mind, while the spirit resides both in the conscious and subconscious minds at once. These facets all work together to create every aspect of that individual. When it comes to matters of health, injury and disease, the mind and body work hand in hand to create and cure symptoms of all varieties. The
psychosomatic
process is the name for the ability of the mind to influence the workings of the physical body. Psychosomatic conditions can affect physical health for better or worse.
Common Mind Body Disorders
The already lengthy list of
psychosomatic pain syndromes
grows longer by the day. It seems that humans have over-evolved to the point where their own minds are actually working against their physical bodies. As we have created a stronger intellect and a more complex emotional process, we have also paved the way for the mind to become ever increasingly the general over our submissive soldier bodies. The subconscious mind takes emotional threats far more serious than the mere annoyance of physical pain. It is for this reason that unresolved emotional issues residing in the subconscious mind are often the catalysts for the creation of physical pain syndromes used to preserve their subconscious anonymity indefinitely. Psychosomatic pain syndromes are universal in humans, but do vary greatly in location, severity and duration of experienced symptoms. Every person I have ever met has experienced
psychosomatic pain
of some type. I have. You have. We all have. From common stress induced
headaches,
to anxiety related
digestive tract sensitivity
to chronic debilitating
psychosomatic back pain
and
fibromyalgia,
mind body conditions have permeated every level of society and affected every single human life.
Recommendation on Mind Body Disorders
Overcoming the
psychological pain stigma
is the most important part of curing these mind body pain syndromes. Until they are recognized as being caused by a psycho-emotional process, they will never go away. Medical
back pain treatments
might help to relieve the symptoms of some psychogenic pain conditions, but will never cure the underlying causes for the pain. The symptoms will always eventually return in the same location or some new anatomical target. This scenario is called the
psychological symptom imperative
and is the reason for the millions of cases of
back pain substitute symptoms
experienced by patients with hundreds of different physical diagnoses. The one an only true cure for any mind body condition is
knowledge therapy.
This simple and direct approach has demonstrated proven results for defeating psychogenic pain, regardless of the nature or location of the symptoms. It is the same cure which beat my back pain, stomach pain, wrist pain and knee pain after 18 long years of suffering. I pray that it can provide you with the same relief.
