Dear Tom
This week I'd like to share with you this fascinating articlewhich discusses the link between our beliefs and disease. It asks why some cultures suffer from syndromes such as voodoo death and penis theft which other cultures do not and includes a conversation held between Julie Back (the writer) and Frank Bures the author of a book called The Geography of Madness. Here's one quote which really stuck out for me:
“Our ideas, our mindsets, and our beliefs feed back into the biology and change the biology in a way you can measure.”
It appears that no culture is immune, with syndromes such as anorexia and fibromyalgia being considered as western cultural syndromes. Research shows that your beliefs affect the symptoms you experience, inevitably what you believe as true, is what you find as true.
Recommended Book
Within the SIRPA training courses I discuss the links between childhood trauma and ill-health in adulthood, including chronic pain. If you'd like to know more I've put our current course dates on the right.
One of the SIRPA Practitioners has also recommended t his book: Complex PTSD: From Surviving to Thriving . It is written for the layperson and offers a map with treatment strategies. The author is someone who has recovered from their own complex post traumatic disorder so this gives a personal touch and demonstrates that change is possible. Well worth a read if you have experienced childhood trauma or if you'd like to help someone who has.
Best wishes, from Georgie
