As A Man Thinketh So Is He?

Transformational Thinking

Human thought is the action or process of mental activity or thinking which includes reasoning, imagination, contemplation, meditation, intention, consideration or reflection. Thoughts are not "made of" anything because they are abstract, non-concrete things that occur and are stored in the brain. The Greek word for thought is “logizomai” and comes from a word that means to take an inventory, to consider or estimate either literally or figuratively.

Science has not found any correlation between one thought and a particular set of cells. Thoughts are considered a process of the brain and are based on electrochemical reactions of signals interacting with neurons within it. Science has yet to provide a complete physical theory on the experience of thoughts and where they come from.

Everything a person perceives in the physical world has its origin in the invisible, inner world of thoughts and beliefs. Human perception is linked to stimuli. Thoughts are not tied to stimuli. However, they do allow the brain to picture things that are not perceptible.

Many researchers have suggested that as much as 80% of all disease is psychosomatic in origin. Webster's Dictionary defines the word "psychosomatic" as "of or relating to a disorder having physical symptoms but originating from mental or emotional causes" and "relating to or concerned with the influence of the mind on the body, and the body on the mind, especially with respect to disease." 

A person’s health is made up of their every move, function, and thought that are affected and influenced by what they eat, how they exercise, and their emotional state. 

Growing evidence supports the theory that stress and anxiety can affect the immune system’s response to viruses and bacteria. Any disruption of communication between the brain and the immune system can lead to increased immune complications.  When a person is depressed or anxious, their immune cells produce large amounts of inflammatory molecules and cytokines.
