Because all actions and expressions stem from the mind, it is vital to know the mind as well as decide in what way we’ll use it. Everyone has heard of psychosomatic illness, and most of us acknowledge that psychosomatic sicknesses can and do occur. But what about psychosomatic wellness? How many of us have considered if it’s possible to stay healthy or cure various maladies with the positive use of the mind? And if we have thought of this, have we done much more than simply consider the idea? .H.E. Davey
About This Quote
Psychosomatic illness is a term used to refer to sicknesses that do not have a physical cause but stem from the mind. Certain illnesses such as the flu and the common cold are considered psychosomatic because they are often caused by a physical ailment in a person's body. There are also illnesses that have no physical cause, but psychosomatic illness simply refers to any illness that can be thought of as mental rather than physical.
