After way too long off the radio, Amy and Janet returned to Angels and Archetypes to talk about the connection between your body and your mind:   To heal the body, first heal the mind.  The program aired live on blogtalkradio.com on Thursday, January 14th.

It is a tenet of many belief systems from Christianity to Taoism.  Most aboriginal cultures.  Ayurvedic beliefs.

From the Healing Cards by Caroline Myss and Peter Occhiogrosso:

The more spiritually centered and balanced you are, the less chance you have to accumulate the stresses that are destructive of the body.  Negative mental states such as anger, jealousy, and dishonesty, which all spiritual traditions teach us to avoid, also cause severe stress and, ultimately, illness.  By healing the mind of its destructive thoughts and impulses, we stand a much better chance of keeping the body whole and healthy.

It is an immensely powerful time in our world right now, where we need healing.  Seeing this connection between the mind and the body can be a tool for bringing calm back into our lives.
