Yoga and Meditation-II

[Guest guest]

'Psyche' and 'soma' are Greek words meaning the mind and the body

respectively. So psychosomatic diseases are those diseases which,

while they have their origin in the psyche, are clinically diagnosed

through somatic symptoms manifested in the body. In simple words, they

are 'mind-body' problems which have simultaneous interaction and

mutual influence. Generally, it is believed that it is the emotional

effects, caused by the stress and tension of modem life which are

translated into somatic disorders. Ulcers, nerve and heart disorders,

migraines, headaches, asthma, colitis, eczema, diabetes, disorders of

the digestive system, etc., are among the common psychosomatic complaints.
