&lt;p&gt;      Welcome to healing through mindchange. You are right that emotional causes of illness have been largely neglected. I think that over 80% of doctor&amp;#39;s visits are related to emotional problems, which are manifesting in the physical. Every body knows about emotional or stress associations to headaches, back pain, migraine, indigestion, pain syndromes, and similar problems.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Heart disease has long been associated with stress personalities and most medical problems have been linked to some kind of stress response. Books on psychosomatic medicine, such as &amp;quot;Molecules of Emotions&amp;quot;, by Candice Peart and &amp;quot;The Balance Within&amp;quot; by Esther Sternberg and the field of psychoneuroimmunology (google) explain some of the connections between chronic illness and the stress hormones. The book &amp;quot;Messages from the Body&amp;quot; by Lincoln ... is still on my wishlist.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Through the successful application of &lt;a href="http://www.emofree.com" target="_blank" title="EFT"&gt;EFT&lt;/a&gt;,&amp;nbsp; we can confirm practically that even allergies, asthma, hypertension, Multiple sclerosis, Lupus erythematodes, and other serious chronic problems can be considered to be manifestations of emotional conflicts. If you count accidents, which happenn usually through mindlessness due to emotional conflicts or cirrhosis of the liver and other afflictions through substance abuse (smoking and lung cancer), which is caused by emotional traumas from childhood, I wonder if any health problem can be understood without looking at the underlying emotional factors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you consider that stress is nothing but a wrong, fearful, or negative expectation, based on fearful, negative thinking, you can see how important and healing a change of mind will be: a change towards peace of mind through positve thinking and affirmations, mindful breathing and meditation, letting go through EFT and letting Good take over, which means a trustful reliance on Spirit, the (Life) Force, or the Intelligence of the universe, which always heals if we don&amp;#39;t resist it. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;      Hi&lt;br /&gt;I am interested in this pod because my life has been decicated to understanding and working with change; most recently through creating a website on emotional health www.bigwhitewall.com&amp;nbsp; Through personal experiences i have become passionate about how little interest is given to the emotional health compared to physical health. Yet one in third of visits to family doctors are to do with emotional rather than physical health. I would like to explore ways of enabling people to pursue strong emotional health states in the same way they would take care of their physical body.&lt;br /&gt;Thank you for listening.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;      Hi All,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am a student of consciousness who serves humanity&amp;nbsp;using life path consultation and hypnotherapy. My belief is that one can instantly, totally, and permanently&amp;nbsp;change their reality (including physical, emotional, and mental health) simply by changing their mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a great forum, and I would like to read stories&amp;nbsp;about the&amp;nbsp;experiences of others who have healed through mindchange.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Be well,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Donald &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;      Welcome , welcome, Don!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have been waiting for people to come in and share their stories. I think that&amp;#39;s what really teaches the best way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Go right ahead.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Michael&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;      &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Hello again ,&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; I would like to say more, about what I would like to see on this pod. I would like to see more personal experience stories, I see that on alot of pods people are just writing about what someone else has done or said. I have learned that we can do what ever someone else has done, I mean because I personaly have done some of these things. I am not talking about talking to dead spirits, I have never did that or have been interested in doing so but I would like to some day, talk to a live spirit, I think there is a differents.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; I would like to see more people talking about something that they&amp;nbsp;learned and share what happen when they pratice what they learned. And share how we learn to share with others. &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Like you said, learn about the nuts and bolts.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Your Friend, Don &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;      &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Hello Everyone,&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; I would like to share with you from my personal experiences what the cause of depression is, I have learned that depression is caused from being told that we are only human and believeing this is enought to depress anybody. I found out what I was depressing, I had been depressing who I AM, I have been searching for a pod like this. I have the most amazing story to share here, and it&amp;#39;s all true, today I am who I think I am not who somebody else thinks I am. I am a spirit in a body I do not only say I am and act like I am but I REACT like I AM. It&amp;#39;s getting late I will write more later I just wanted to say hello for now.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Your Friend, Don &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;      &lt;p&gt;Welcome to the pod, Kat, and thanks for asking . I have been considering recently to ask the members of the pod for help by asking me questions, because i don&amp;#39;t know how to share what i want to share if I don&amp;#39;t have a specific question. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the other hand I needed some time to clarify my own understanding and over this summer things have fallen in place. (See my blog on Avatar). So much so, that today&amp;nbsp;I would question that there is any incurable disease at all. In any case if you&amp;#39;re suposed to have&amp;nbsp;one you must consider it curable if you don&amp;#39;t want to give up. And giving up surely never cured anything. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;And with the myth of the noble doctor you&amp;#39;re right. We&amp;#39;re usually just covering up our helplessness. But even that is beginning to change since we have &lt;a href="http://www.emofree.com" title="EFT"&gt;EFT&lt;/a&gt;, Quantum touch, and some other new techniques.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, I am not very experienced with a dietary approach, but healthy nourishment and exercise is only the beginning of the necessary willingness to make the change for healing. The real change comes through a change of mind, not so much the conscious mind as the subconscious. And the ways I know that can achieve that are EFT and emotional clearing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don&amp;#39;t know what disease you are talking about, but I can tell you that once&amp;nbsp;I treated a woman suffering from weakness an d partly paralysis through Multiple Sclerosis with EFT, and it was so successful in the first session that she said: &amp;quot;No, I can&amp;#39;t do that. I cannot afford to loose my disability payments.&amp;quot; So she never came back for more treatment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the same time this shows what usually keeps people sick&amp;nbsp; in the first place: &amp;quot;They become sick because they have some benefit from it, some way they held on to self destructive patterns rather than face their fears and change. Some way where they betrayed their spirit and succumbed to fear and turned to blaming the outside world and be a victim.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Usually that&amp;#39;s the original emotional trauma that&amp;nbsp;led to the disease and it has to be uncovered and treated. Which is no proiblem at all with EFT. Check the website for reports on the kind of disease you&amp;#39;ve been diagnosed with and for a practitioner in your area. I am sure especially neurological disorders will respond wonderfully. Even on Alzheimer I would try it. Intention plus persistence can heal just about everything.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let me know how you progress or drop me a line and I&amp;#39;ll help you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mikael&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;      This morning under the shower I was laughing and thinking: &amp;quot;I better keep laughing, because when I&amp;#39;m not laughing,&amp;nbsp;deep down I&amp;#39;m crying, and that means depressed about life.&amp;quot;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;So let&amp;#39;s keep laughing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And then I saw clearly how laughing would be the answer to all problems if we just keep it up.&lt;br /&gt;Even the politicians would crumble if we people would just laugh about them how they deserve. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;      My experiences with doctors has been frustrating. Five doctors, after a cursory review of my records and taking the easy route by agreeing with&amp;nbsp;to my previoius physicians&amp;#39; opinions&amp;nbsp;have diagnosed me as &amp;quot;having&amp;quot; a serious &amp;quot;incurable&amp;quot; neurological disease...impressive...but I know that my mind and my oneness with the Creator of everything and the designer of the&amp;nbsp; human vessel is more powerful than any numbers of so-called professional healers. Meditation on and visualization of my perfect health and&amp;nbsp;returning to my body&amp;#39;s Divine blueprint&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;are tools for restoring my wholeness. I am wanting to change my nutritional support for this blueprint. Any other modalities that you might reccommend? I KNOW my mind can heal my body! &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;      I have emerged from a sheltered place, only to find that the coccoon does not contain the changes~ I do.&amp;nbsp; I am happy to learn from you Mikael, I am happy to remind.&amp;nbsp; I am happy that we have both opportunities all the time.&amp;nbsp; As we share our growing and our gnowing, we become more of what we forgot we were, and less of what we thought we were supposed to be.&amp;nbsp; I laugh.&amp;nbsp; That might&amp;nbsp;sound like a load of bologna if I hadn&amp;#39;t just realized that it was true!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am a gnostic mystic, a spark of divine laughter, and&amp;nbsp;a dark feathered servant of the light.&amp;nbsp; I&amp;#39;m glad we are playing here, together.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Namaste, &lt;br /&gt;Crow &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;      &lt;p&gt;I started this pod to help people grow spiritually, developing from fearful, addicted, or depressed earthlings into free soaring spirits. Thinking that I had been through a lot of&amp;nbsp; recovery I figured I could be a teacher or something.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Only to find that it doesn&amp;#39;t work that way, and that I am the one who needs to be reminded of the principles of spiritual growth, such as patience, humility, open minded ness and wilingness to service. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So please forgive me where I got off on the wrong foot and let me try again.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thank you, Mikael&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
