Can our attitudes create disease?
Published on 11th December 2009

People rarely choose consciously to create an illness, rather illnesses develop as a consequence of our behavioral patterns and attitudes that we don’t even realise can make us biologically toxic until they have already become so. Only when illness forces us to review our attitudes do we come close to comprehending that our day to day fearful or bitter attitudes are, in fact, biologically negative substances.
We all have negative feelings, but not all negativity produces disease. To create disease, negative emotions have to be dominant, and what accelerates the process is knowing the negative thought to be toxic but giving it permission to thrive in your consciousness anyway. For Instance, you may know you need to forgive someone, yet you decide that remaining angry gives you more power. Remaining obsessively angry makes you more likely to develop a disease because the energy consequence of a negative obsession is powerlessness. Energy is power, and transmitting energy into the past by dwelling on painful events drains power from your present day body and can lead to illness.
Power is essential for healing the body and for maintaining health. Attitudes that generate a feeling of powerlessness not only lead to low self-esteem, but also deplete the physical body of energy and weaken overall health.
It sometimes takes a concerted effort to shift your mind to allow yourself to heal. Accepting the idea that every part of your life – from your physical history to your relationships to every attitude, opinion, and belief you carry inside yourself – affects your biological makeup is only part of the healing process.
