Manipulating the Mind-Body Relationships to Achieve Behavioral Change

There are several attitudes developed towards understanding and manipulation especially this connection.It is the mystical approach that strives to spiritual or religious as Yoga or even experience the Kabalistic meditation. States science and philosophy yogic which is a human being, but a fragment of a huge universe, and when that human being learns to "communion" with this vastness, while it reaches union with something that is greater than him. This attachment or tap into something bigger and allows walking the true path of happiness. The objective of the Yogist is mental set. Yoga is not a system of meditation - or a religion - how many people is misled to believe. Meditation is that part of the process we all bring back in the field of spirituality.Yoga is focused on the connection of the mind and body. This body-mind harmony is ensured by three things: postures (asanas) proper breathing (pranayama) méditationCorps and spirit draw inspiration and guidance of practices combined asanas, breathing and meditation. Relaxation of the body postures include pranayama, which is a necessary condition for meditation. Imaging guided is a process by which the frontal lobe of the brain is taken control and produce a State of mind that simulate the process of change or life after the change.

Hypnosis is the process by which change resistance is reduced and selective thought becomes more efficientSelf-hypnosis always starts with relaxation as a means of penetrating sub-conscious and create a State of mind of suggestive.Hypnosis and self-hypnosis works well because the body reacts to the commands of the spirit, as a car meets the driver.

It can occur as a result of the mental change. Parts uses imagery and self-hypnosis, guided practice of yoga to achieve a State of mind which makes possible behavioural change.There are psychologists who tend to explain the behavior without the use of the sub-conscious concept.

Guided imagery can empower self-hypnosis by look like the power of visualization of suggestion.
