Psychoimmunology: The study of the connections between the mind and the immune system.
The basic concept of psychoimmunology is the concept that the mind and body are inseparable. It follows that stress affects the body's ability to resist disease. The brain influences all sorts of physiological processes once thought not to be centrally regulated. There are effects of psychological factors on many diseases including rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, and inflammatory bowel disease.

This is just one paragraph, check the site
So the psychoimmunology part is a part that's very important, to understand how your biology responds to your thoughts, so then you can navigate with your thoughts. Because one of the things that happens is that our nervous system is geared to function at the speed of the moment. If you do what mystics do, which is to compress time, it's very dangerous. You can actually burn out. This is why some people will get enlightened and they die.

This is connected to the channeling part of the brain that transmits messages. This deeply interactive pattern transfers energy to the psychological part of the brain from the physiological part. Channeling energy correctly is essential, otherwise imbalance occurs.We have 7 chakra levels within the body, these are our balancing mechanism. 1.Sacral Plexus,Physical body, Earth, Red. 2. Lumbar plexus, Emotional body,Water, Orange. 3. Solar Plexus,Mental body, Fire, Yellow. 4.Cardiac / Heart Plexus, Astral body, Air, Green. 5. Thyroid Plexus, Ethric body, Ether/Metabolism, Blue. 6. Carotid Plexus Nirvannic body,,Inner Sound,Indigo. 7. Casual body,Brain, Nervous system, Violet. The mind and body are inexplicably linked and they have to be in perfect balance to maintain health .

It is the study of the connection of the immune system and mind. For instance, stress can affect the ability to fight off diseases. That is why people get sick more when they are stressed out. Therefore, happy people are healthier people! Good Luck on your test!
