Someone told me one day: ''Do not always feel sick, because you'll be then really really physically sick!'' What do you think? Is there any correlation between real physical sickness and a sort of psychological self suggestion?

treeoflife43 I definitely agree with the concept of self suggestion. I often use this in the opposite. If I am starting to feel sick I continue to tell myself that I am not getting sick, and I usually can fight my cold much better. If I have an attitude that I am so sick,...

treeoflife43 I think that there is a difference between spirituality and religion. I think that it is possible for a person to be spirtual and not religious or vice versa. I also think that it is possible for a person to be both. My personal view on the subject is that...

treeoflife43 I've also heard that if you constantly wear a certain kind of lotion, soap, perfume, etc. that that scent remains on your body even after you wash and if you do not reapply it...I wonder if this is true?

treeoflife43 Yes, I've definitely noticed this with some of my ex's and have been told that I have a "scent" too. I think that many, or most people do, some are just more distinguisable then others. Isn't the scent related to phermones or something like that? LOL I'm not...

treeoflife43 This is a good question to think about. I don't think that I would want to know, because then I would probably just obsess about it. I'd rather remind myself everyday, to live each day to the fullest, because we never really do know. Like the saying that says,...
