Hello Fellow Seekers, I found this very interesting, from an ex-cancer patient point of view. Maybe you will also?

The Mind/Body Connection

Greetings!

A few weeks ago, a friend in Florida sent me a link to an interesting website on the mind/body connection. Jerry wrote: "I've been reading a great book lately (Outsmart Your Cancer by Tanya Pierce), and I came upon a most interesting discussion on some research from Germany on the mind-body connection. You may be aware of Dr. Hamer and the "German New Medicine', but if not, I think you'll find the physical research fascinating in light of Ellen White's statement that 90% of disease has its origin in the mind. The correlation of emotional trauma to specific brain scan patterns at locations indicative of the affected organs is most interesting."

Before we take a look at the mind/body article, let me point out that certain negative emotions can affect specific body organs. For example, anger is the negative emotion associated with liver prob-lems; bitterness with the gallbladder; low self esteem and feelings of rejection can weaken the pancreas; a broken heart or grief can affect the heart and lungs; depression, loneliness, and anger all take their toll on your cardiac health; and feelings of abandonment can have an effect on the large intestines. The Bible supports the mind/body connection: Lamentations 2:11 says: "Mine eyes do fail with tears, my bowels are troubled, my liver is poured upon the earth." Furthermore, science has discovered that the brain and gut communicate through an impressive network of hormones, peptides, and neurotransmitters. When emotional stress disrupts this dialogue, the effects can be seen on a brain scan. An area known as a midcingulate cortex goes into overdrive--and the gut suffers potentially devastating consequences." Not only do negative attitudes in the mind affect certain body organs, but Dr. Hamer's research revealed dark spots in exactly the same place in the brain for the same types of cancer and a specific type of unresolved conflict. I hope you enjoy the article.

The New Medicine
The Body-Mind Connection
by Hanne Bom

"Psycho-somatic therapy (psyche = mind; soma = body) theorizes that there are psychological and emotional factors involved in both the onset and healing of cancer and other diseases. One of the most recent studies on psychosomatic cancer therapy comes from Germany. Over the past 10 years, medical doctor and cancer surgeon Ryke Geerd Hamer has examined 20,000 cancer patients with all types of cancer. Dr. Hamer wondered why cancer never seems to systematically spread directly from one organ to the surrounding tissue. For example, he never found cancer of the cervix AND the uterus in the same woman. He also noticed that all his cancer patients seemed to have something in common: there had been some kind of psycho-emotional conflict prior to the onset of their disease, a conflict that had never been fully resolved.

After having examined 20,000 cancer patients with all types of cancer, Dr. Hamer has come up with some revolutionary information. X-rays taken of the brain by Dr. Hamer showed in all cases a "dark shadow" somewhere in the brain. These dark spots would be in exactly the same place in the brain for the same types of cancer. There was also a 100% correlation between the dark spot in the brain, the location of the cancer and the specific type of unresolved conflict.

On the basis of these findings, Dr. Hamer suggests that when we are in a stressful conflict that is not resolved, the emotional reflex center in the brain which corresponds to the experienced emotion (e.g., anger, frustration or grief), will slowly break down. Each of these emotion centers are connected to a specific organ. When a center breaks down, it will start sending wrong information to the organ it controls, resulting in the formation of deformed cells in the tissues: cancer cells.

Dr. Hamer started including psychotherapy as an important part of the healing process and found that when the specific conflict was resolved, the cancer immediately stopped growing at a cellular level. The dark spot in the brain started to disappear. X-rays of the brain now showed a healing edema around the damaged emotional center as the brain tissue began to repair the afflicted point. There was once again normal communication between brain and body. A similar healing edema could also be seen around the now inactive cancer tissue. Eventually, the cancer would become encapsulated, discharged or dealt with by the natural action of the body. Diseased tissue would disappear and normal tissue would then again appear.

Recent research in Germany, Austria, France, USA and Denmark has confirmed Dr. Hamer's findings; that emotional conflicts create cancer, and solving the conflicts in question stops the cancer growth. Dr. Hamer is now co-operating with 100 French doctors who have formed an organization to work with his theory, and they are finding the same correlation between emotional conflict, brain function and cellular changes in the corresponding organs. These doctors are using psychotherapy as a major part of the healing process, and they claim a remission rate of 97%.

Their understanding is that cancer patients seem to be people who do not know how to share their thoughts, emotions, fears and joys with other people. They call this 'psycho-emotional isolation' These people tend to hide away sadness and grief behind a brave face, appear 'nice' and avoid open conflict. Some are not even aware of their emotions, and are therefore not only isolated from other people, but also from themselves. If we live our life in emotional isolation, our emotional centers will be under constant stress. If we then add a major conflict which we are not able to resolve, and which we may not even be quite conscious of, then emotional centers of our brain are in danger of breaking down.

We all experience 'emotional isolation', more or less. We live in a society where we want to interact with other people in a way we have been brought up to regard as considerate. There are limits to what we feel we can say and do. We often even censure what we allow ourselves to think and feel. Having to change these lifestyle facts does not necessarily mean that we need to go out and hit our neighbor or cry in front of our friends. It is a question of how we can change our emotional patterns without creating even greater conflicts for ourselves.

From his personal experience--he himself has had cancer--and from those patients he took care of in many university clinics, Dr. HAMER established over the years that there is always a definite syndrome at the source of cancer, and not just a kind of stress. It requires a strong stimulus, a brutal psychic trauma, which hits the patient as a major event in his life, an acute dramatic conflict, lived in a complete psychic isolation. This initial syndrome, which he discovered and carefully verified in each of the thousands of cases he has examined until now, he called DIRK HAMER SYNDROME (DHS), from his son's name, Dirk, whose tragic death in 1978 originated his own cancer.The experience of those thousands of individual cases diagnosed and treated in the last years, allowed him to bring out constants and formulate a law, always checked precisely, the Iron Law of Cancer, which has never been contradicted. This law, whose Dirk Hamer Syndrome is the main piece, the keystone, states as follows:

1. Any cancer starts with a DHS, that is to say, an extremely brutal shock, a dramatic and acute conflict, experienced in loneliness and sensed by the patient as the most serious he has ever known.

2. It is the subjective meaning of the conflict, the way the patient experienced it at the moment of the DHS, its coloring, which determines:

a) the Hamer focus, that is, the specific area of the brain, which, under the influence of the psychic trauma, suffers a breakdown and thus induces an ill-proliferation of cells (cancer) in the organ dependent on this short circuited cerebral area;

b) the location of the cancer in the organism.

3. There is exact correlation between the evolution of the conflict and the evolution of the cancer on a double level: cerebral and organic.

It can take time to make even small changes in our habits. The important thing is that we can start healing from the moment we have understanding of our emotional conflicts so we can start acting, even if this action if merely to start talking to somebody -- a friend, partner or professional. In this way, we break the loneliness of our isolation, and the pressure is taken off the emotional centres in our brain.

Cancer patients who choose psychosomatic therapy - whether professionally or with a good friend - are different from most other patients. They are not 'just' being treated by others, but play an active part in resolving how and why the disease occurred. The word 'patient' becomes redundant, and they enter into active co-treatment of themselves. It is not a question of trying to follow some ideal way of living, based on other people's experiences. Each one of us must find our OWN solution -- a lifestyle that works for US. We become sick in OUR OWN way -- and we must heal in our own way."

Jerry also noted: "Although some of the descriptions [from this website] may offer the obligatory reference to evolutionary origins, the correlation of emotional trauma to specific brain scan patterns at locations indicative of the affected organs is most interesting." Modern Manna does not endorse everything on the website below. Plans are in the works for health meetings and raw cooking classes in Lodi and Sonora, California. I am just waiting for the final word from two churches before launching Modern Manna's new four-day health and live food program. How exciting to bring the messages to Lodi, my home town! Wait till you see my brand new, cutting edge health series called Cleansing, Juicing, and Live Foods for Good Health.

Charmaine Daniels will be sharing her powerful testimony on how she got victory over Stage-4 breast cancer 7 years ago. She has been conducting CHIP programs and is a gifted cook and will teach you how to make delicious meals serving only live food. The raw food demonstration is amazing! People do not realize how energized you feel eating food that is alive! We will motivate you to get busy doing health evangelism in your area and bring more people into your churches. "Get the young men and women in the churches to work. Combine medical missionary work with the proclamation of the third angel's message. Make regular, organized efforts to lift the church members out of the dead level in which they have been for years. Send out into the churches workers who will live the principles of health reform. Let those be sent who can see the necessity of self-denial in appetite, or they will be a snare to the church. See if the breath of life will not then come into our churches."
We will also do a juicing and super smoothie demonstration, and teach you how you can dehydrate delicious food and still preserve it alive with all the enzymes. If you would like a similar program in your area, to motivate and teach people how they can do health evangelism in the community, simply contact Modern Manna at 800.655.3228.

God bless,

The Elijah Prophecy
 
The mind is a very powerful thing. I hope Travis doesn't mind me talking about this (I don't think he will), but his mother passed away several years ago due to breast cancer having metastisized into her bones and brains. She has the most aggressive of breast cancer-inflammatory. The cancer was so aggressive that radiation had to be done before drs could even think about a mastectomy. She was only 50 yrs old when diagnosed. A young and vibrant mother and grandmother was given a 3% chance of survival. That would knock the air out of anybody, but not Sue. She fought, she praised GOD, witnessed, spoke to anyone who would listen....she blessed everyone who knew her. Thru five years of fight, she lost her hair numerous times, was partially paralyzed, had breasts removed, took chemo time after time, had a rod put in her back because the cancer had eaten her spine away, etc. She never once got down and never lost her fight until the very end. Even in the last couple days of life she still fought, and when GOD was ready to take her, her fight turned to acceptance and peace. This sweet lady should have never made it Five years, but I believe her attitude prolonged her life. We should never forget what a gift life is and should use every breath to further GOD's kingdom and love others.
