Below you will find a metaphysical causes of illness list. If you are experiencing any conditions or diseases that are listed in the below metaphysical causes of illness list, read about the possible related mental pattern. Think deeply about whether this could possibly be relevant to you. When you accept and acknowledge the past, you may help facilitate a total well-being state.
I am a firm believer that every illness may be a by-product of a mental pattern that could be traced back to early childhood at times. Negative emotions leave an impact on our body, affecting different body sites and resulting in various illnesses and diseases. While this theory is not evidence-based, it is worth reflecting upon. We are not made of just the body. Our existence consists of the mind, body and spirit, and only if there is complete balance and harmony between these three can we enjoy total well-being.
One last piece of advice that should go with the below Metaphysical Causes of Illness List is to “Love Yourself” enough to forgive anyone who did you wrong in the past (including yourself), and let go of what has been. You’d be amazed if you could see what a difference letting go of resentment does to your body!
