Two Facts You Need To Know Aout Health
Health is defined as a condition of physical, mental and social
well- being and the absence of disease or other abnormal
condition. According to some forms of traditional medicine
practices, an ill condition develops because the individual has
violated a course that Nature wants them to follow. Whenever,
the body's natural rhythm is disturbed in some form, the body
responds to undo the disturbance. The response of the body is in
the form of symptoms that causes an illness.
One example of the symptoms appearing in response to a
disturbance is when we have an infection. Fever is a typical
response of the body when any part of it suffers with an
infection. In reality, the body is trying to kill the infecting
bacteria by raising the body's temperature. From a medical
standpoint, fever is a symptom of infection.
The two facts that you need to know about health and illness are
related to our emotions. How the emotions affect our body and
mind is a not well-known area in modern medicine. However, in
traditional medical practices all over the world, the role of
emotions in illness and health is well known.
Fact one-When we undergo any negative or traumatic emotional
experience,
the body tends to 'absorb' or 'lock up' the effects
in a mild way. The more the person goes through traumatic
experiences, the more the body becomes tense or stressed out.
This weakens the immune system. The body's abilities to deal
with any invasion by disease causing organisms is compromised.
So when the illness strikes, the medicines and drugs affect the
body in proportion to how much the body can help them in being
effective. Some people need more medicines than others because
of this reason.
Fact two- The more relaxed your body becomes, the better is the
immune system. The body's healing system tackles the problem on
its own. One does not need much medication in such a case. The
relaxed body aids in the healing process. This is the reason why
people who practice meditation, yoga or tai-chi do not suffer
with many illnesses.
