The Vancouver-based Dr. Gabor Maté argues that too many doctors seem to have forgotten what was once a commonplace assumptionthat emotions are deeply implicated in both the development of illness and in the restoration of health. Based on medical studies and his own experience with chronically ill patients at the Palliative Care Unit at Vancouver Hospital, where he was the Medical Coordinator for seven years, Dr. Gabor Mate makes the case that there are important links between the mind and the immune system. He found that stress and individual emotional makeup play critical roles in an array of diseases.
The Mind Body Connection. How original. Did anybody else notice how gaunt this cat looks?

So glad someone is talking about this. As Rubenfeld Synergists we address this connection between emotional health & physical health. We use a combination of gentle touch & talk to support a client's process.

Anger is not evil, it is always healthy to express anger, just not fear and anger together.
Man or Women people need stand up for themselves and say NO I WILL NOT TURN THE OTHER CHEEK!!! "the first one is free" ;)

This comment has received too many negative votes show
I believe that what you say about health should line up with what your body says. This man appears exhausted and his countenance is VERY dark . I'm not tossing out the baby with bathwater but this man appears he needs to soak with Jesus, get some joy and healing from him and then maybe I will listen to you.
I believe very much so that the mind body connection is very real.
