It's blowing my mind that there can be an emotional reason behind every disease and that we are not taught this as a basic life skill since we are kids!! This needs to change! This knowledge needs to be shared with everyone!!

J'avais oublié de noter ce livre. Alors l'approche est intéressante, et on sait tous que certaines réactions physiques sont dues à des problèmes psychologiques plus ou moins faciles à comprendre, mais ici j'ai trouvé que certaines explications étaitent tirées par les cheveux.

This book helped me with my own health, our physical body is a container for the rest of our bodies, bodies of energy that make up the mind, the soul, the emotions. Issues with these will be reflected on the body, sometimes we carry ourselves unconsciously about our day to day lives, eating wrong or unappropate amounts, not being present and therefore careless and then tripping or cutting ourselves, acting out of... out of precisely our emotions and our mind and thats what this book is refering to. A lot of people mistake it in the sense that you can cure yourself with just thought, sometimes we let the sings in our bodies be there too long without doing anything about it and then yes it becomes an important illness. This book is for understanding and preventing.

I found some of the links the author makes between psychosomatic disorders and our emotional lives interesting, but I do overall think that many people with serious illnesses, or who have children affected by one, might find this book quite offensive. Not sure about this one. Gave it 3 stars, but would have given it 2.5/5

If you want to read a comedy book, than that's a good choice.
Really, this cannot be a serious medical book, it's a joke.

I give you an funny example from this book. When reading about "sprain" there I got some explanation about that I have some inner problems and some limits, and that's why you can get a sprain (???).

Je mets la note moyenne car je suis plutôt mitigée : oui je suis certainement convaincue de l'origine peut être "psychologique" des maux et des maladies, mais je suis très dubitative de certaines explications.

C'est intéressant certes, mais l'auteur va beaucoup trop loin. A prendre avec des pincettes donc.

With over 550 pages of emotional causes for the roots of illness, this book far surpasses Louise Hay's one-liners in "Heal Your Body." Martel offers multiple explanations and nuances for each ailment, allowing readers to customize the information to their unique situations.

[Mira]

Not a scientific book one, yet it shows the reader the simple explanations of diseases. From a spiritual and organ-mind-body view.
Really good for someone too focused with a mindset of conventional protocols and disconnected from their pacient.
Also, if you, as a person, are brave enough to look for yourself the causes and want some awakening hard truth, there you have it. A possible answer to your concernes. It might be uncomfortable for some of you.
