I would appreciate very much if a debate could take
place about the significance of "psychological
processes".
I remember a conversation wih a colleague and the
"pause" that took place when I mentioned the impact of
our emotions and thoughts on our body.
She finally replied:"Oh,you mean pathologies of
psychosomatic origin?
I paused and replied: "Well, no. Not in that sense.
I mean the impact of our emotions and thoughts on our
body."
She repeated: "Yes, that's what I mean,
psychosomatic".
I felt that we were going nowhere and that, somehow,
something wasn't quite clear.
I ask: what is a health problem of psychosomatic
origin?
Or, said otherwise, what is a health problem of
emotional and cognitive origin?
This is my first question.
My second, on a totally different subject would be:
Are you aware of any histological or physiological
study concerning the "reaction" of a cell membrane
(any cell) to an outside stimuli ( touch with a tool
or otherwise)?
Would you, please, also point me out a reference
(book, article or anything else)?
Thank you.
