Conscious Health – does illness have a function?

from BEING with Sally Wilson Hosted by Sally Wilson

How does what we've lived through, affect what our body does? What is the ‘meaning’ of illness? Could it be something to be understood rather than fought? Does illness have a function? For the first 6 years following her medical training recently retired GP, Dr. Catherine Fyans, adhered strongly to the Western Medical belief system and perspective. Following a stint as a medical volunteer in India, however, the idea that we can treat the body separately to the mind seemed ridiculous. In this episode, Dr. Fyans shares her perspective on health and approach to illness which may just guide us to personal growth and understanding.
