Even though the link between your mind and body is not always obvious, there is no doubt that is very much there. For instance, a person with a positive outlook on life tends to look at things with a better attitude, which makes it easier for them to tackle their problems the right way and create a happy and healthy lifestyle.

The opposite can be said for those with a negative attitude. If a person constantly has negative thoughts and insists on drowning themselves in sorrow, this means they’ll end up going down the wrong path in life, ending up with n unhealthy lifestyle.

Each and every emotion a human feels gets stored in his or her body’s cell memory. This is why unresolved issues and past trauma that hasn’t been dealt with keeps popping up throughout ones life, and will continue to do so until they’ve been fully healed. Take a look at the chart below to see which emotions affect which areas of the body.

If you’ve been experiencing bodily pain that wasn’t caused by physical activity, it’s time to listen to what your mind is telling you. Physical pain is one way your mind conveys painful emotions, so you need to look into them and try and find peace.

The best way to resolve such issues is to take a step back and evaluate your attitude. How you go through life and how you perceive things directly affects your experiences. Train yourself to think first before reacting, and remember that you are the one in control even if it feels like you aren’t.
