Forgiveness and Good Health



"How forgiveness can positively affect your health - “Anger, bitterness and resentment are natural human emotions. But holding a grudge against your sister for not having arthritis, or hanging onto jealousy over a coworker for snagging your well-deserved promotion may negatively affect your health,” states an article in Arthritis Today, a consumer health magazine published by the Arthritis Foundation......Integrative medicine is just now exploring what our grandmothers have been telling us for centuries – how you feel emotionally, affects the way you feel physically. There is an entire field of study devoted to this aspect of healthcare called “psychoneuroimmunology,” which looks at how our neurological and immune functions are intrinsically linked. So how does forgiveness fit into our overall health? Does forgiveness improve our well-being?" - - http://blogs.timescolonist.com/2012/04/17/the-forgiveness-project/

Tom sez - In my research in preparing to make The Virtual Healing Machine, I learned that forgiveness is a big part of learning.  Therefore, I included words to encourage forgiveness in the self-hypnosis scripts.  If interested, see the scripts on the VHM site.  

It's amazing how much emotions affect us physically.  We're just beginning to know about this.  There's so much that could be done, but is not for various reasons.  I'm hoping my work will stimulate individuals to take charge of their own health.....and encourage innovators to springboard off my work.

Happy Healing!
