The way to cure yourself is -
First - tell your mind that you are well.
Second - tell your mind you are cured.
It is true.
This is well understood amongst martial artists.
Training in combative arts you very often sustain injuries.
This is also one of the things that we use meditation and pressure points for.
But a more westernized example is to...
Simply look at Triathletes and Marathon runners and the strong correlation between health and fitness levels amongst that demographic group of
people.
Why ?
It has much to do with the individual's mental attitude and the type of workout.
The long distance workouts flood the brain with natural pain killers called Endorphins creating an uplifting "runner's high" for extended lengths
of time , telling yourself and your mind that you are healthy and well over and over again even after they're done working out.
On the contrary
Simply look at the high levels of illness associated with sedentary individuals often leading to depression, over eating, obesity, diabetes and heart
disease. Primarily due to a negative mental attitude and poor outlook of themselves and life in general.
This type of lifestyle only reinforces negativity day after day leading to poor health.
