Does this sound mad?
Well, it’s not and the whole new science of
psychoneuroimmunology is testament to it.
Your body, and especially your immune system
literally ‘hears’ and ‘responds’ to the
deepest feelings and beliefs you send it.
More: Each cell and organ is acutely attuned to
the vibrations emitted by these beliefs, good or
bad.
In bare terms: What we think directly affects
our immune system.
This very radical concept has
now been substantiated by medical science. At
Harvard Medical School, researchers discovered
receptors on our immune cells for neuropeptides.
In simple terms, neuropeptides are chemicals produced by the
brain that vary with your emotions. The results of
this study point to the simple fact that your
immune system is actually listening to your mental
talk.
How you think is how you feel. When someone
tells you that you’re only as old as you feel,
believe it!
When you really believe you can achieve your
weight-loss goal, your body literally responds to
this reality in real physiological and chemical
terms.
For example, we now know that the body
automatically transforms every mental impulse we
generate into biological information. In fact, we
can all see the proof of this from a simple
experiment.
Imagine any experience vividly enough, say, a
time when you were really frightened, and all
kinds of involuntary reactions – blood pressure,
heartbeat, respiration, body temperature will
start to conform exactly to how you feel now- just
vividly re-living that experience.
