The emotional cause of asthma

Asthma is also influenced by certain emotions like laughing, crying, anger, panic etc. But many in the medical community believe there is no evidence that people with asthma are more psychologically disturbed than their non-asthmatic peers. However, it is not possible to have a disease without an associated emotional or traumatic component. Our brain and body is not a divided organism where our brain and body function independently of each other.

Having asthma is most likely related to birth trauma where the newborn suffocates during the birth process or has difficulty getting out, weakening the lungs and bronchioles. Or, possibly, where the parents were overprotective or domineering, or demanding to the point of, in a sense, smothering the child.

And, there are many other asthmatic scenarios that could weaken a person’s lungs and bronchioles during childhood. Maybe you know which one is yours.

In his book, How to Get Well, 1974, Paavo Airola, Ph.D., says: “Extensive studies show that there are two basic causes of asthma: one, the typical allergic reaction to one or more allergens; two, psychic factors. Doctors agree that many young people with asthma (about 25% in studies) have in common a ‘deep-seated emotional insecurity and an intense need for parental love and protection,’ and nutritional treatments can be effective.”

Emotions and feelings, such as apprehension, worry, anxiety, and panic, can cause muscle tension and contraction around the bronchioles. Over a long time, these stresses can cause muscle spasms and weakening of the bronchioles, which can lead to asthma in adulthood.

In his book, Cleanse & Purify Thyself, 1998, Richard Anderson, ND, NMD, says:

“Our own research indicates that Love is the great key. When we understand that Love is the natural state of our being and when Love is not flowing through our being at all times, then some other emotion or concept interferes. These interferences They are usually emotions of great intensity or some peculiarity in our point of view, such as the habit of judging conditions, things or people in a negative way, and most of the time they are conscious and unconscious negative emotions so that Love flows through. us. Herein lies one of the most important points of this book.”

For many healers of the past, it was clear that childhood trauma and lack of love provided an atmosphere in which illness could develop. Asthmatics need to find and heal that emotional component that prevents them from healing so that they can start healing asthma.
