Is the mind the source of all disease?

I don't think the mind is the source, I do think the mind allows disease to enter the body. People with very strict mind control can consciously control all bodily functions. Unfortunately very few of us have this control.

Hello Pose. I think that it is somewhat true that the mind is the source of all diseases. The reason why it can be so is that anxiety and worry function a lot to our health. If we always try our best to live happily without mental stress conquering us, it will be a different story. I always believe that a healthy mind works a lot in maintaining our good healthy besides doing a lot of exercises. Dear Pose, I wish you all the best.

Ummm, yes could be, you know. After all the mind is the place were we are most emotional with our decisions and analysis of a lot many things. To most people around, the brain may say something else, but they love to listen to their heart or mind (incl. me). also, there are times when we feel alone or we want to be left alone…in such times, the mind is our only friend or enemy (whichever way you see it)…like a ruminating cow, we go on pondering over the same thing till it either drives us crazy or forces us to take wrong decisions, just because we are too confused and tired to continue and would like to arrive at a conclusion.

There is so much that we still don't know about the human mind ,so is possible that can we attract bad energies composed of several negative things like depression and diseases.

"The Extraordinary Power of Your Subconcious Mind" - just look for this book and read it.It's interesting.

Hello pose. I say that the source of all diseases is worry. According to famous Mayo brothers, the cause of nervous troubles are the negative feelings such as anxiety, fear, depression, and others. Accordingly, Plato stated that "the greatest mistake physicians make is that they attempt to cure the body without attempting to cure the mind; yet the mind and body are one and should not be treated separately."

Yeah ,I agree with you that mind is the source of all diseases.Ifwe are in worry ,then the stress comes to our mind,this inturn brings the changes in our whole body,in our nervous systm and in our immune system.Due to the worries and mental pressure ,sone hormonal or different un-explanable changes occur in our body and this inturn affects our nervous system.Since ,nervous system is the engine of the body,so any symptoms in it lead to the changes in the whole body fluids and the whole body tends to behave differently which inturn leads to the diseases or hormonal imbalances which is not really good for health. happy mylotting
