Every sickness or disease we get has a definite cause and effect relationship.
Be it any Mental, emotional or physical ailment. Our whole body which consists of mental, emotional and physical level of existence is bound together by an energy force/ Quantum Field or as Vital Force which Founder of Homeopathic System of medicine Dr Sammuel Hahnemann has mentioned many years ago.
Again there is also a layer in our Mind & Emotions as discovered by great psychologist Dr Sigmund Freud. These are Conscious (10%), Preconscious (10%) & Unconscious Mind (80%). It is also called the ‘Ice Berg Theory’ of Dr Sigmund Freud.
Here the most important part is of the Unconscious Mind which stores all the memories from Childhood to present age and is responsible for the reaction we give to any given situation and circumstances. Unconscious Mind is the major cause of the disease developed and the character of a patient.
Homeopathic Medicines has a miraculous power to enter the unconscious and remove buried grief and anxieties of a patient which was causing Mental, Emotional & Physical disease in a patient.
At Good Health Homeo Clinic, Dr Saswata Kundu, experienced homeopathy doctor in Siliguri, makes in depth analysis of every case to discover hidden grief, anxieties, fright and other stresses which has caused disease in a patient.
It has been observed after Classical Homeopathic treatment with Holistic approach that unconscious repressed emotions, anxieties and fears that were the cause of disease are removed together with the sickness the patient is suffering from.
The Three Layers of the Mind
Psychology has known for a long time that the mind isn’t one single thing – it works in layers, and each one does a different job.
1. The Conscious Mind
The Conscious mind makes up about 10% of our mind. According to Dr Sigmund Freud it is the uppermost part or tip of the ice-berg. This is the part you’re using right now: your current thoughts, the decisions you’re aware of making, what you notice around you. The Conscious Mind is your objective or thinking mind. It can only hold one thought at a time & it has no memory.
Conscious Mind has 4 different functions-
1. Identification- Identifies the information through six senses.
2. Comparison- Identified information is immediately compared with stored information in your Pre-conscious & Un-conscious mind.
3. Analysis- Then the information analysis occurs for further action.
4. Decision or Action- An organism acts as the final action of the conscious mind.
Here’s the surprising part – it’s actually the smallest layer. Most of what drives how you act happens somewhere you can’t see.
2. The Preconscious Mind
Below Conscious mind, Preconscious mind lies making up another 10%. It is the next slightly submerged portion of the tip of the ice-berg.
Think of this as the mind’s waiting room. It holds things you’re not thinking about at this exact moment but can pull up without much effort – your old address, a childhood friend’s name, a habit you didn’t realize you had.
Unlike the memories of the unconscious mind which are not easily accessible to our awareness, preconscious thoughts & memories can be brought into the conscious mind with some effort or by some specific triggers.
It sounds minor, but the preconscious quietly steers a lot of your conscious decisions.
3. The Unconscious Mind
The largest portion, the major submerged part of the iceberg about 80%, is the Unconscious mind. This is the deepest layer, and the one you have the least access to. Repressed emotions, old grief, fears are buried inside us from when we are in mother’s womb to your current age. These experiences shape your character and shape your personality.
When we are in a dream state, when our control over our conscious mind is lost we dream according to our repressed emotions in our unconscious mind. So taking dream symptoms for Classical Homeopathic Treatment is very necessary as it reflects our unconscious directly. It has been observed repeatedly after successful Classical Homeopathic Treatment patients’ negative dream patterns are gone together with the improvement of the physical and mental disease.
Our Unconscious mind is also responsible widely for our physical pathology and disorders. Occurrence of any physical disease is not accidental, there must be a cause for every disease we get.
If through Classical Homeopathic Treatment we do not cure the physical pathology from the root cause then it has been observed that repeated suppression of the physical pathology pushes it to the more deeper organs or the patient’s anxieties and depression increases or it the physical pathology returns again and again after repeated effort of the suppression of it. It means that this physical pathology is the body’s cry to get rid of it and to protect the deep mental-emotional level of a person.
So, in Classical Homeopathic treatment it’s always the mission of us to cure the disease from the root through healing the unconscious.
How These Layers Shape Personality
The development of one’s personality is not something that happens instantly; rather, it is a gradual process where all the three layers of the mind interact together.
Conscious Mind experiences impact and how we project ourselves and make analysis, decision and actions.
Action of the conscious mind is further modulated by our stored memories, experiences, suppressed emotions, fears and anxieties in our unconscious mind.
Preconscious associations shape our habits, inclinations, and automatic behavior making them easier to perform without conscious thoughts.
This automation allows us to perform complex tasks, like driving a car or playing an instrument with very minimal conscious efforts. Thus the preconscious mind modulated much of our learned pattern actions.
The Unconscious Mind is the main store-house of our experiences, suppressed emotions, fears, grief etc. These patterns that one is likely to acquire during childhood influence our personality attributes including being resilient, insecure, confident, or sensitive.
Also to hide a person’s grief, jealousy, anxieties, deep insecurities etc most of the person acquire the mask as described below which gradually develops their outer image which they represent to the world outside.
A person in grief is smiling and laughing to hide their grief to others.
A Jealous Person represents the outside world to be over generous and helpful. They also acquire a mask of artificial smiling and laughing to hide their darkness of jealousy deep inside their mind which originates again from an inferiority complex deep inside their un-conscious mind.
Many times a person with Anxiety and Insecurity acquire a mask of Dictatorial in their family and subordinates but submissive to their superior and over friendly and generous to the outside world to hide their deep insecurities.
In case when all these three levels function well in harmony with each other, then an individual will be having a rounded personality.
If a person without a developing mask outside of him/her accepts their negative feelings and tries to encounter it with positivity and confidence, then these repetitive actions slowly improves their confidence and develops a healthy and robust personality.
But if that same person slowly develops their mask more and more, then that inner fighting drains down their energy and that person develops sickness in their mental, emotional as well as physical level. This ‘Masking’ has been described by Great Psychiatrist Dr Carl Jung as ‘Persona’. And disorder in Persona is called ‘Personality Disorder’.
The Mind-Body Connection: How Emotions Can Contribute to Disease
One of the fundamental laws of homeopathy is that not only is good health the absence of symptoms, but it is also about balancing the mind, the emotions, and the body. In recent years, it has become clear that both repressed emotions and chronic stress, grief can be contributing factors for several physical ailments, such as:
- Digestive issues and irritable bowel patterns
- Skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis flare-ups
- Chronic headaches and migraines
- Sleep disturbances
- Fatigue and low immunity
- Hormonal imbalances
That is why in Good Health Homeo Clinic under the guidance of Homeopathy Doctor in Siliguri, Dr Saswata Kundu our mission is always to cure the patients as a whole. All his/her deep seated grief, anxieties, stress etc are explored in detail during taking case history together with which physical problem the patient is suffering with scans and pathological reports. Then the medicine is given to cure the patient’s sickness from the root of its origin.
How Homeopathy Treats the Mind-Body Connection & Unconscious Mind To Cure Disease from the Root
Homeopathy doesn’t treat symptoms in isolation – it treats the person as a whole. This is what’s known as constitutional treatment: a remedy chosen based on your whole physical, emotional, and mental profile, not just the diagnosis on paper.
During a consultation, that usually means exploring:
Physical symptoms – What you’re dealing with right now, scans and pathological reports. This helps diagnosis of the physical disease the patient is suffering from together with the prognosis of the treatment.
Mental &Emotional patterns – Recurring anxiety, grief, anger, fears, insecurities are explored in detail with their minute and individualistic symptoms.
Personality traits– Types of Personality which has been described above is explored which is the main cause of developing disease in three levels of the organism.
Past experiences – Unresolved events that may still be sitting in the unconscious.
Dream Patterns– When we sleep the control of the conscious mind above us is off for sometime and our all suppressed feeling and emotions present as dreams. So exploring the dream pattern is very important for us to explore the patient’s deep mental and emotional state. Dream symptoms are also taken to select the right remedy and treatment plan.
From all of this data & information, the remedy is chosen to support your body’s own healing response, across both the emotional and physical sides at once and to cure the disease from the root. The opposite approach pushes the disease deeper into the patient.
Why This Matters to clear the Unconscious for Long-Term Health
A lot of people come looking for homeopathic treatment in Siliguri after trying everything else – treatments that dealt with the symptom but never quite touched the root cause. Because homeopathic medicine can enter the unconscious mind and clears the suppressed emotions and stress there , it’s built to go looking for that root cause instead of managing what’s on the surface.
Understanding your own mental emotional patterns isn’t just enough to cure the disease on your own. It has been observed many times that by lots of effort through Psycho-analysis, Meditation and Spiritual practices a person is not able to resolve his unconscious fears, anxieties and grief. Here Classical Homeopathy plays a very important role to heal the unconscious and cure physical, mental and emotional disease from the root.
