The mind-body connection
- Molecules of Emotion: Why You Feel the Way You Feel (external link)
- Neuroscientist Dr Candace Pert explains why we feel the way we feel and how our thoughts and emotions affect our health. Proof-positive that our bodies and minds function together as parts of an interconnected system.
- Your Body Speaks Your Mind: Understand the Link Between Your Emotions and Your Illness (external link)
- Debbie Shapiro highlights the often striking ways in which our bodies echo or somatise our emotional state: for example, if you have a physical pain in your neck, ask yourself who or what in your life is a pain in the neck. Sounds simplistic, but is often only too true!
- You Can Heal Your Life (external link)
- Similar to the previous book, but Louise Hay suggests affirmations to repeat to change the way you think, and therefore heal your body and your life.
