The Mind-Body Connection…

is what science has been seeking for 300 years.  It is important for everyone, not just those suffering from anxiety or depression, because 80 percent of medical conditions have a significant psychological component.

 

Emotional expression is research-proven to strengthen your immune function.  Emotional suppression, on the other hand, can impair your physical and psychological health.

 

Some of the most common physical conditions involving the mind and emotions are:

• headaches

• neck pains

• stomach & digestive problems

• chest pain

• fatigue

• constipation or diarrhea

• memory loss

• frequent colds or flu

• fertility
