The Effect of Positive Thinking on the Human Body

One of the features of alternative  medicine is its sensitivity  to all human  layers,  the  highest  of  which  is (he spiritual  layer,  (hen the mental, emotional,  and  physical  layers,  in that  order. 

All of these layers interact with and affect each other, to the extent that some sentiments reside in certain parts of the body and are linked to the symptoms that are demonstrated by these pans. 

For example, sorrow resides in the lungs, anger in the liver, fear in the kidneys, and shocks of love in the heart. and the stresses of life in the stomach (which leads 10 heartburn  due  to  the  excessive  secretion  of  hydrochloric  acid). 

By treating the sorrow, fear, anger, etc. the symptoms appearing in the related organ are eliminated. 

For instance, curing a child of fear is the perfect solution for involuntary urination.

The  divine  and  prophetic  teachings  encourage  us  to adhere  to positive thinking,  to dismiss  negative  feelings, and  to  stimulate  the latent energies at various levels through the mind, heart, and physical faculties.

So that we can continuously progress towards happiness in both the worlds. In this regard Almighty Allah says.

"So do not become weak (against your enemy) nor be sad, and you will be superior (in victory) if you are indeed believers.”(Surah AI-‘lmran: 139)

And, “…So waste not your soul in sorrow for them.” (Surah Fatir: 8)

And, “…Place not in our hearts any rancor toward those who believe.” (Surah Al-Hashr: 10)

In one of his supplications, the Prophet (Peace be upon him) used to say,

"O Allah, I seek refuge with you from worries and grief.” [Narrated by Al-Bukhari: 2893]

We thus  find  that  the  believers  are  always  keen  on directing   the powers  that  Allah  has  instilled  in them,  in order  to  achieve  serenity, happiness,  and psychological   balance.
