Understanding the Links Between the Mind, Our Emotional State, and Our Bodies Can Bring Great Benefits to Our Health and Well Being

The body/mind is a brilliant system that is only just beginning to be recognized by western medical practitioners. IntentOnChange.com recognizes that many persistent or re-occurring aches and pains are messages from the body telling us that there is something that needs to be looked at. The body will continue to knock until we head its warnings - pain medications will only mask the underlying issue. For chronic conditions the prognosis for many is increasing doses of pain killers, with undesirable side effects, as the body adapts and continues to issue its warnings. IntentOnChange.com has shown many people that by recognizing and understanding the emotional components that affect those conditions, many chronic medical problems can be brought under control.

(PRWEB) June 9, 2005 -- David Barilla is a holistic medicine practitioner in Toronto, Canada. His web site http://www.IntentOnChange.com provides information on a variety of techniques for balancing our bodies and achieving a healthier state of being.

Davids philosophy is that in the absence of physical trauma or other diagnosed medical condition (infection, disease, hereditary factors) that chronic pains and aches can often be traced to emotional issues. His practice relies on ancient bodies of knowledge such as Chakras (http://www.intentonchange.com/Chakras.html) and Reflexology (http://www.intentonchange.com/Reflexology.html) where certain emotional conditions map to specific areas in the body. David works backwards, tracing a physical pain to the possible emotional causes.

Pains in the lower back are often associated with feelings of not being supported or financial difficulty, for example, provided there is no actual trauma to the back. Persistent sore throats and coughs are associated with a failure to express ourselves, provided of course that one does not have a cold or has been exposed to an air borne irritant.

In working with David Barilla a patient is given the opportunity to recognize and take responsibility for the underlying cause of a condition. A ninety minute consultation with an energy centre assessment, necessary to help pinpoint the bodies imbalances would include a combination of alternative therapeutic and relaxing modalities. Massage, aromatherapy, colour therapy, organ meridians, reflexology, and reiki are all some of the tools that David uses.

For those who are online for many hours of the day David Barillas website (http://www.IntentOnChange.com) has a handy Automated Chakra Balancing exercise. Anybody can do this exercise at their desk -- it takes about 2 minutes. Its a great little net-break" from our computer centric lives. And best of all its free and requires no sign up. Maximize your browser and visit http://www.IntentOnChange.com/ChakraBalance.html to check it out -- you will feel better.
