Are There Emotional Roots to Illness and Disease?
You sure wouldn’t think there are spiritual roots to illness when you look at the way western medicine treats sickness. Their primary focus is to provide a drug to deal with the symptoms. 60% to 80% of primary care doctor visits are related to stress, yet only 3% of patients receive stress management help. According to Occupational Health and Safety news and the National Council on compensation of insurance, up to 90% of all visits to primary care physicians are for stress-related complaints. There is an entire 500 page book, written by a protestant minister, detailing the spiritual roots of diseases. It is “A More Excellent Way to Be in Health” by Henry W. Wright.
