IBS affects as much as 20% of people globally. Symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome are abdominal pains associated with altered bowel pattern and bloating. Rectal symptoms such as irritation, pain or urgency can be present. There are also non-colonic symptoms.
Treatments of IBS fall into four categories. Patient education, medication, dietary modification and behavioural and psychological therapies are the four categories. Experts now agree that psychological and behavioural therapies provided better long term results.
The law of Attraction suggests that you attract into your life whatever you think about. The simple explanation of the Law of Attraction is that your thoughts determine your destiny. The Law of Attraction has built up an enormous momentum after “The Secrets”; a documentary film, was shown on Oprah. It has been used for some time for personal growth, achievement and financial gain.
In medicine, does the Law of Attraction work? In 2004, a study of 196 young people and 314 elderly subjects associated with rumination and negative thoughts concluded that negative thoughts may be detrimental to health independently of effects. In Reikii, all processes of healing or personal and spiritual development is associated with elimnating from a person’s energy field negative KI or life forces, and removing negative feelings and thoughts that have created it.
Negative thoughts, following job loss, relationship break ups and poor assessment, affect self-esteem. These people can feel worthless, insignificant, unsure and easily defeated. A person with high self-esteem has positive thoughts and their level of success is determined by these thoughts.
In Irritable Bowel Syndrome, does the Law of Attraction apply? What information is given to a person when first diagnosed with IBS? Here are a few. We do not know why you have IBS.There is no one treatment that works for everyone. Your gut is normal. Stress can trigger IBS symptoms. A cure is not an option. With IBS, you have to live with it. Most IBS sufferers complain that they do not get the support they need from health professionals.
Is it not likely these negative facts can affect the mind of IBS sufferers and produce negative effects? Recently experts are recommending treatment that focus on the mind for IBS treatment. These include psychotherapy and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). Moss-Morris at the University of Southampton, UK said, “Patients who have ongoing IBS symptoms might benefit from a simple, early intervention of CGT, a means of changing thought processes from negative to positive that has been shown to be helpful.” At the State University of New York, Dr. J. Lackner reported that there was an improvement in 73% of patients with IBS after four short sessions of CGT and home study manual given to patients.
When an IBS patient tries a new treatment, expectation may well create significant improvement. This improvement is short lived because of the negative underbelly (There is no cure.) in the subconscious mind. Soon the benefits may wear off.
There are cases of refractory Irritable Bowel Syndrome patients following gut directed hypnotherapy enjoying normal lives, eating foods that were previously triggers. Nothing works anymore in refractory IBS. During hypnotherapy, negative messages about IBS are plucked from the subconscious mind and postive thoughts are added. This is the Law of Attraction working at its best. After hypnotherapy, positive thoughts produce positive results and before hypnotherapy, ingrained negative thoughts make symptoms severe.
Using the Law of Attraction, how can you improve your symptoms of IBS? Keep the positives in the forefront of your mind. Make them your reality and eventually your thoughts and feelings. In IBS there are many positives. There is no abnormality in your gut. Your IBS will not lead on to other illnesses. If stress is a trigger, you can control it. You can improve your IBS by getting a better balance in your life. You can lead a full life even though you have IBS. Whatever IBS treatment you are on, keep your dreams and aspirations positive.
