ALL IN YOUR HEAD

Got a splitting headache? Maybe you've been too critical of yourself lately.

Stomach upset? You're deeply fearful of something. And maybe that cold is

really telling you you've just taken on too much lately.

New-age notable Louise Hay states that our emotional and mental states are

deep at the root of every ailment, and should be treated as much as the

physical body.

Many researchers agree on this mind-body connection. Emotions such as

chronic fear, anger, frustration can contribute to cancer, heart disease and

other illnesses. While we can't turn off our emotions, learning to channel

worrisome thoughts in more positive directions can go a long way towards

recovery.

In her book, Heal Your Body, Hay outlines the emotional components behind

everything from arthritis to yeast infections, and recommends " affirmations "

(or mental messages you repeat to yourself) to assist in healing. Here's a

sample:

ALLERGIES: " Emotionally allergic " to someone/thing in your life. " The world

is safe and friendly. I am at peace with my life. "

LOWER BACK PROBLEMS: Fears over money; lack of financial support. " All I

need is taken care of. I am safe. "

CONSTIPATION: Refusing to release old ideas; stuck in the past. " As I

release the past, the new, fresh and vital enters. I allow life to flow

through me. "

NAUSEA: Fear; rejecting new idea or experience. " I am safe. I trust the

process of life to bring only good to me. "

SORE THROAT: Holding in angry words. Feeling unable to express the self. " I

release all restrictions and am free to be me. "

So it's all in our heads....send her into my

old building. Standing empty now..empty

for 10 months...can't sell it...can't rent it...

She would only have to stay for a few

hours...go home ...come back for a few

more hours and I guarantee you she

would be so sick and sitting in the waiting

room at a dr's office...

Did she also know that Malinda Ballards

crew sent in several rats to live in her

house and I am guessing to examine them

after a required length of exposure but

they were all dead in 13 days...Hmmm!!

For all of you out there who are skeptics,

or to those who know it is a serious prob

lem and want to soften the hysteria, I say

to you FORGET IT....All one has to do is

talk to those who are suffering...or better

yet, get your cot and go live in anyone of

the thousands of buildings, courthouses

schools and promise you won't bring along your body suit with the face

mask.

Then report back to us....Oh and be sure

to have a witness that you entered the

sick building and witnessed how long you

stayed....

What's McDonough have to do with the 'all in your head' stuff here? The

article looks like it's promoting Louise Hay's typical nonsense where she

bashes the patient and confuses the emotional components that co-exist

with illness with causality.

Is it from an article by McDonough promoting Hay's?
