Psychological problems and illnesses. Psychology of diseases - psychological causes of various diseases

Thought is material, it is embodied in our affairs, in relationships with people, in our illnesses and general well-being.

This statement in Lately surprises almost no one and finds many supporters. The thinkers and healers of antiquity shared the same opinion.

Psychosomatics is a science located at the intersection of medicine and psychology, believes that the connection between soul and body is so strong that unstable emotions and unbalanced human behavior lead to the appearance of diseases.

Who is Louise Hay?

One of the authorities in psychosomatics is Louise Hay, an American researcher of this problem. She experienced first-hand the mechanisms of disease occurrence.

She was diagnosed with uterine cancer, which this woman dealt with in a few months. Such a successful cure was preceded by a long journey of reflection and analysis of one’s own life.

Louise Hay knew about the negative impact of unresolved problems and unspoken grievances on even the strongest organism.

Louise Hay, who turned to psychosomatics, came to the conclusion that her illness arose as a result of her inability to let go of the situation, due to her beliefs in her own inferiority as a woman.

She chose affirmations as her beliefs - beliefs compiled according to special rules.

These affirmations, repeated over several months, made her a healthy person and a confident woman.

Louise Hay did not stop there, she decided to help other people and began to promote her experience.

Based on the results of her research, she compiled a table of the causes of diseases, known as the Louise Hay table, which draws a connection between the disease and a person’s emotional problems.

Louise Hay table - what is it?

The stereotypes of our thinking are formed on the negative experiences received by a person. This postulate of psychosomatics and the table of diseases are closely related to each other.

If you change these old beliefs, you can completely get rid of many problems and illnesses. Each incorrect setting leads to the appearance of a certain disease:

  • cancer is an old grudge;
  • thrush - subconscious rejection of your sexual partner;
  • cystitis – containment of negative emotions;
  • Allergy – reluctance to accept something or someone into your life, perhaps even yourself;
  • problems with the thyroid gland - dissatisfaction with the quality of life.

Louise Hay believes that the cause of the disease will disappear after a person realizes the emotional problem. The disease does not appear just like that; it is sent to every person so that he thinks about its psychological causes. Louise Hay's table is intended to facilitate these searches.

Table of diseases Louise Hay

  1. First you need to find your problem in the first column, where diseases are arranged in alphabetical order.
  2. On the right is probable cause leading to illness. This information should be read carefully and be sure to think and comprehend. Without such elaboration, you should not use this table.
  3. In the third column you need to find an affirmation that corresponds to the problem and repeat this positive belief several times throughout the day.

The positive effect will not be long in coming - the established mental balance will lead to an improvement in health.

In this book, Louise Hay writes that we create all diseases for ourselves, and we ourselves are able to treat them with our thoughts. Thoughts are material, this is no longer a secret to anyone. But it’s not enough to know that thoughts are material, you also need to learn how to constantly direct them in the right direction, not to let negative thoughts in your head, try to always be positive.

With the help of the techniques and affirmations that the author of the book reveals to us, we can gradually get rid of many negative stereotypes that are firmly entrenched in our heads and prevent us from living calmly and happily, without illness.

Metaphor of bronchial asthma – inability to “breathe” full breasts" Early relationships between mother and child with AD are built according to the “love and hate” type. The child feels this ambivalence and begins to worry and cry, but the expression of feelings is blocked by the mother “don’t cry, stop screaming,” which causes fear of pushing her away even more. Exacerbation of asthma in adults occurs when one needs to show courage, responsibility, independence, or be able to survive sadness and loneliness. The aggressive behavior of asthmatics may mask a strong need for love and support. Often aggression is experienced as dangerous, so the patient cannot express it by “letting out his anger into the air,” but this manifests itself in attacks of suffocation. In asthmatics, there is a dysfunction in the function of taking and giving. With a tendency to retain. A person wants to appear stronger than he really is, because he thinks that this will arouse love for himself. The body asks you to recognize your weaknesses and shortcomings and let go of the idea that power over others can give them respect and love.
11) The trigger for the development of bronchial asthma can be a negative work stoppage, in which the employee’s “oxygen is cut off,” or the arrival of relatives, because of whom it is “not possible to breathe” in the apartment. Also, asthma attacks can occur in a situation of “suffocation” by care, “tight squeezing in one’s hands” (for example, by parents of their child). V. Sinelnikov, a writer, doctor and psychotherapist, claims that it is quite difficult for asthmatics to cry, since such people ordinary life often hold back their sobs and tears. In his opinion, asthma is a clear attempt to express to people what cannot be expressed in any other way. A. N. Pezeshkian – doctor medical sciences and the professor is firmly convinced that asthmatics come from families in which achievements and high demands were in the first place. In such families they often say: “You need to try!”, “Finally get your act together!”, “Don’t let us down!” Along with these requirements, the child could be prohibited from exhibiting negative emotions, express dissatisfaction, aggression. Emotions are suppressed, since it is not possible to enter into an open dispute with parents. The child remains silent, but his body remembers everything and takes on the mental burden.

As a rule, diabetics also want for their loved ones. However, if the latter get what they want, the patient may experience strong envy. A diabetic is a very loyal person, he wants to take care of others, and if something does not work out as planned, it develops strong feeling guilt. Diabetics behave measuredly and thoughtfully, as it is important for them to bring their plans to life. All this is caused by deep sadness caused by dissatisfaction in love and tenderness. Diabetes means that it’s time to learn to relax and stop controlling everything. Let everything take its course, a person’s mission is to be happy, and not to do all this for others, neglecting his own desires.

In other cases, the conflict is expressed in a feeling of guilt due to the desire to take something by force from another. The reason why gastric functions so vulnerable to such conflict is that food represents the first explicit satisfaction of the receptive-gathering desire. In a child's mind, the desire to be loved and the desire to be fed are very deeply connected. When, in later life, the desire to receive help from another causes shame or shyness, which is not uncommon in society, main value considered to be independent, this desire finds regressive satisfaction in an increased craving for food absorption.

Psychosomatic mutual influences, as well as psychosomatic illnesses, are an objective reality. It is no coincidence that new definitions of the disease increasingly emphasize the role of the mental factor. Any scheme is conditional, so the identification of psychosomatic diseases is also conditional. However, in some somatic diseases, the importance of the mental factor, mental overstrain is so great for their occurrence and development that they can and should be classified as a group of psychosomatic diseases. Psychosomatic medicine (psychosomatics) is a branch of general pathology that studies somatic disorders and diseases that arise under the influence or participation emotional stress, in particular mental influences experienced by the individual in the past or present.

A third of diseases are from humans, the other third from nature and another third from demons.

Tibetan treatise of Zhud-shi

A healthy Spirit means a healthy Body

Illness is not cruelty, and doctors’ mistakes are not God’s punishment, as most people are used to thinking. It is a correction and a tool that our soul uses to show us our mistakes, to prevent us from making even greater mistakes, to prevent us from doing more harm to ourselves, and to return us to the Path of Truth and Light. The Path of Truth and Light is always the Path to the knowledge and realization of the integrity of life, internal unity with all being. The symptom of the disease shows us in which area we have strayed from this path. If you think differently, that's your right. We don't insist. Everyone is free to gain their own experience and draw their own conclusions.

Sufi parable. The Last Judgment is coming. A line of righteous and sinners, believers and unbelievers, passes by God at his feet. The all-merciful God directs everyone to heaven. Now it’s the turn of the doctor, who has devoted almost 50 years to healing the sick. And God commanded: “To his hell, to eternal torment.” The unfortunate doctor prayed: “Oh, God, why am I going to hell, when I worked for the good of people, tirelessly and without closing my eyes, to reduce their pain, get rid of suffering, to prolong their lives?” God answered him: “I sent illnesses to people to correct their mistakes and delusions, to enable them to correct themselves and take the right path, and every time you deprived them of this opportunity.”

Healing and treatment are different concepts. The treatment process is passive, i.e. the patient transfers responsibility for his illness to the doctor and turns into a victim, suffering from a virus, microbe, or simply unfavorable circumstances. By receiving symptomatic treatment, he may get temporary relief. But, because the cause is not eliminated, after some time the ill health manifests itself with renewed vigor, perhaps with other symptoms.
Reiki - healing. Healing is an active process that involves the healer and the person seeking help. Thanks to joint efforts, a person becomes saturated energetically and realizes the root cause of the disease and, through changing patterns of behavior and thinking, recovers.

We don't do treatment. Doctors provide treatment. We don't even use the words "patient", "treat". We are engaged spiritual healing . This means that we are trying to help you understand your problem - and perhaps help. It is impossible to solve a person’s problem for him. We won’t be able to make him healthy against his will; we won’t give him pills for stupidity, greed, etc. Even the healer in the advertisements in the newspaper with “a history of thousands of years, in the 12th generation, who will remove hexes, damage, and at the same time cast a spell” - this is not all about us. We are learning understand this world and live in it correctly . About such people at all times there was such a word in the Russian language: RIGHTEOUS - KNOWING THE RIGHT. We will LEAD ourselves, we will be able to convey to others how people can find their way, how they can learn live in harmony with the world , and therefore be healthy. No one can make a person healthy except himself.

Most often, in our practice we notice that the disease is very beneficial to the patient. He uses it as a shield, as a deception, as a way to evoke pity from others, provoke them to take some action and gain some benefit. When a person says: “I’m so sick, no one can cure me...!” - the man is playing. When we put a mirror on him and it reflects back to him everything he does, he gets offended at us. There is a proverb for this case: “There’s no point in blaming the mirror...” Sometimes you have to be very tough. But! We do not seek to offend, we seek to open a person’s eyes to himself, to his relationship with the world.

Most often we are dealing with lost souls or bodies abandoned to the mercy of fate: the body is doing one thing, the soul is doing something else. Such a person cannot be healthy. That is, it also happens that the fault is not always in the person. They often try to mislead us with phrases: “it’s our own fault,” “like for like,” “we created this problem ourselves and then got ourselves into it.” Is not a fact. Not everything is so simple. Of course, most often we ourselves are to blame for our troubles, but not always.

Do you think the broken bottle is to blame for being broken? Guilty because I got caught under the foot or under the arm. Does the bottle have freedom of choice? She can’t change anything, everything has been decided for her. Often people are an empty vessel (or not so empty), which some forces use as they wish. But that's a completely different topic. She is from the realm of manifestations of dark worlds and their creators on our Earth. In order not to give them a lot of energy with our attention, today we will talk about the causes of diseases that a person creates for himself.

Emotions anger and hatred affect our liver and, as a result, our heart. Herbal COLLECTION OF THE HEART.

Grievances deposit stones in the liver, ducts and gall bladder, also affecting the heart at the same time. Sometimes the consequences of these destructions cannot be corrected. If a person is not ready to be offended and does not intend to do so, he will not be reached. The most best job dealing with grievances is meditation. Herbal COLLECTION FOR LIVER.

Offense against a man in a woman, this is immediately the thyroid gland, mammary glands, and uterus. Most often, oncology. If there is no harmony in a relationship with a man, then this is also - women's diseases. Dear women, you just need to love men! Don't judge, don't evaluate - just love. A man offends a woman when she does not give him love and confidence in a woman’s ability to love, in a woman’s charm, warmth and comfort. Herbal FEES FOR WOMEN'S DISEASES.

Feeling of guilt, sense of duty - load the bladder. There are people who deliberately try to offend and cause guilt. The so-called provocateurs. This must be monitored and not allow those who are pulling these people to pull you too.

Melancholy and despondency - reflect the powerlessness of the Soul and its reluctance to change the situation. These emotions generally prevent efficient work with soul.

Fear- hits the kidneys, weakening the adrenal glands (the center of prenatal vital energy). In general, fear is a normal indicative reaction. But fear is manageable.
