This book explores the concept that you can use your mind to heal your body and explains how, even though we are all born with the same kind of brain, made up of the same biochemical elements, we don't all react in the same way to events and experiences. That's why some of us become ill, while others seem almost invulnerable to disease. Doctors are now realizing that your own best doctor is yourself. Through your ideas and feelings, you are capable of strengthening your immune system, and giving it power to fight disease. Part One describes easy-to-learn techniques such as visualizations, healthy breathing, alpha relaxation, meditation and self-hypnosis, which activate the body's natural defences. Practice these regularly and you can use them to combat a whole host of problems, from the common cold and indigestion to more serious complaints such as cancer and heart disease. The second part looks at different health problems and gives simple but effective steps you can follow to bring about prevention or cure.
