The immune system specifically refers to the thymus, spleen, lymph, bone marrow and red blood cells. The other organs assist in the immune process as well, but these body parts technically establish the 'immune system'. A weakened immune system is when you have a poor response to illness, getting one cold after another, always feeling below par. It can be accompanied by apathy and lack of vitality and energy. Concerns about the immune system are widespread

Poor diet, computer and mobile phone radiations, chemical pollutants, pesticides, extermination fluids, microwaves, ozone depletion, sun-bathing, stress - all these take a toll on our immune functions. The end result: more frequent and more severe colds, flu, allergies, mucus congestion and the fear of serious disease.

Some of the Physical causes of Low immunity could be:

• Nutrient deficiencies.

• Amalgam dental fillings.

• High, sugary diet.

• Stress.

• Cold and damp.

• Gastrointestinal problems.

• Lack of exercise.

• Lack of sleep.

ACTION PLAN WITH HOLISTIC HEALING FOR LOW IMMUNITY

PREVENTION AND LIFE STYLE CHANGES IN LOW IMMUNITY

• Get outside in fresh air and daylight every day. Daylight re-sets our daily rhythms by its action on the pineal gland .Fresh air is great for increasing oxygen levels to the brain and other organs.

• Have a brisk walk and swing your arms to get your circulation going. Cycling, Jogging and skating are also great for circulation and improving mood.

• Viruses thrive in yeasty guts, so take care of your internal garden by replenishing it with good bacteria.

• Always have some raw food with every cooked meal as the food enzymes from raw foods will help to keep you strong. Eating too much cooked food can compromise your immune system as research has shown that it puts white blood cells on constant alert which is weakening to immunity.

• Get a lymphatic drainage massage to help to move lymph through your lymphatic system, the body's drainage network.

• Practise thymus thumping. Make a fist and tap below the neck area 20 times. This will give a bit of a wake-up call to your thymus gland. If the thymus is weak, the body becomes more susceptible to immune-related problems. Getting the lymph moving through the thymus gland is like a helping hand you can provide.


CONNECTION OF LOW IMMUNITY WITH MIND-BODY-SOUL/ EMOTIONAL CAUSES OF LOW IMMUNITY

Your mind is the most powerful tool you have.

Every thought you get, causes changes throughout your body.

Neutral, calming or happy thoughts have the opposite effect.

It is always a set of emotions or an emotional state that manifests itself in the form of a disease.

When a person's Immune system is compromised, the whole body suffers. You will be affected emotionally as well. With a weakened Immune system, problems in the body become worse as the immune system is not supporting them.

As a result you might feel that your support system has failed resulting into feelings of worthlessness and insignificance.

At the emotional level, you might have been through a whirlwind of emotional experiences that have left you feeling scattered as well as emotionally and physically drained.

You never know when to protect yourself or when to relax.

There's a feeling of getting stuck up in life with fear of moving forward. This is because people in your life have been challenging your boundaries and opinions. As a result you feel insecure and unsure of your own judgement and ability to make decisions.

Your survival instincts have been activated which may cause you to see everything as a possible threat.

There may be harbouring of deep grief along with underlying despair and demoralization.

You may have been told that you are the source of all family proems and as a result there may be a sense of responsibility for everything that went wrong. You may seem to feel that no matter what you do, you may never be able to lift the burden of what you have caused to others.

As a result you may have accepted blame and the possible abuse as punishment and may feel that you have to pay for all the family problems.

Your emotions, sense of guilt, anger or shame has taken a taxing toll on your health.

You feel that the smaller and weaker you are, the lesser is a threat of being impacted by influential people. This keeps you from reaching your goals and becoming successful.

You may feel spiritually, emotionally and physically depleted, and fed-up of all the stress caused to you.

There could be a feeling of being a helpless victim of circumstance and you may have accepted this stagnant position.

You may feel like giving up on the role of life as the journey has become abusive, overwhelming and full of responsibilities.

Here are ways to master the mind/body connection to improve your Immunity levels.

1. Relax. Relaxation is an active state of deep rest where the mind is quiet and the body is physiologically calm.

Meditation, guided visualization, body scanning and slow, diaphragmatic breathing are some of the many techniques that achieve relaxation.

2. Stop taking stress. Stress is heavily implicated in any disease. Review your life and see if you can avoid the causes of stress or change your response to them. Stop worrying about the past or future and live in the present. As that is all you can influence.

3. Express your emotions. Emotions are energy. Suppressing them takes physical effort that can cause pain.

Repressed emotions cause poor health. Suppressing emotion also keeps you stuck, unable to move past what you are avoiding. By contrast, writing in a journal or talking to someone about how you feel, and even just sitting quietly and "mindfully" to fully experience and acknowledge the feeling, all lead to feeling better both emotionally and physically.

4. Try to be cheerful. When you laugh your body produces endorphins, the body's natural healers.

5. Process your trauma. There could be a connection between earlier experiences of psychological trauma or chronic pain or illness of the past.

3) At the level of Soul- Main therapy guided as per our unique SPIRITUAL WHEEL MODEL.

90% of the diseases are a result of build-up of unresolved negative emotions and pre-programming of your mind as discussed above. Your soul tries to express these unresolved negative emotions first through your thoughts and feelings. If you fail to listen to the messages that are crying out to be heard, these messages become stronger and then harder for you to ignore. They then express and manifest themselves by means of pain, discomfort or ill-health.

Along with Emotional management, Spiritual programming of your mind is a must to unwind yourself from the clutches of the negative emotions you've held so long which has ultimately led to the dis-ease.

This we achieve by means of:

1- Facilitated Spiritual Detox

2- Meditation

3- Identifying the imbalance and healing at the level of the Chakra

4- Energy healing


After-care maintenance and guidance once the goal is achieved (reversal and cure of disease)

The aim is to gain proper balance in life by achieving a permanent healing at the level of Body Mind and Soul.

We at NIDHIVAN, instead to targeting the disease or problem on the surface, aim to treat the innermost root cause of the disease, so as to achieve a permanent cure
