As soon as we are born, we immediately begin to breathe, freeing the body from unnecessary gases and enriching it with oxygen. It is free breathing that can be considered a symbol of life, but when it is disturbed, the cause should be sought not only in the defeat of the body by viruses or bacteria. It has long been proven that almost all violations of the organs are associated with the psychological state of the person himself at a certain point in his life. Lack of real air may well be related to the psychosomatics of lung disease.
Definition and features
Psychosomatics is a branch of medicine and psychology that studies the impact of psychosomatic phenomena in life on the course of somatic diseases. The relationship between the spirit and the body has long been known and is carefully studied to this day. Against the background of certain psychological factors, migraines, peptic ulcers, disorders of the heart and blood vessels, tumors, problems with the endocrine system, and much more can occur.
Drug treatment in such situations only helps to temporarily alleviate the condition. Since the cause of the disease is not solved in this way, the disease soon recurs again and even then the treatment is carried out by searching for the cause in psychosomatics. Pneumonia refers to those ailments that can occur due to psychological dissatisfaction with one's own life. Many psychologists have created their own tables that describe the causes of diseases and how to eliminate them, but the most common is the work of an American specialist. Dr. Louise Hay considers the psychosomatics of pneumonia as a consequence of despair, fatigue and inability to withstand the difficulties that arise.
Disease factors
The psychological side is manifested in many diseases of the body and most often the causes are similar situations:
- neuroses;
- stress;
- psychological trauma.
Depending on the characteristics of such moral shocks, the impact on specific organs is determined. Constant nervous tension most often provokes the development of peptic ulcers of the digestive system, disruption of the cardiovascular system, weakened immunity and, as a result, many infectious diseases.
Depending on the characteristics of a person's perception of the same situation, the effect on the body also depends. Psychosomatic factors of organ dysfunctions can be:
- short-term (death of a loved one or other serious news);
- prolonged (misunderstanding of loved ones, problems in the family);
- chronic (malformation, inferiority complex, etc.).
Serious stress can also lead to cancer. Everything also depends on heredity, character and emotional type of a person.
Causes of disease
Pneumonia according to psychosomatics occurs in those who are not able to completely relax and breathe life to the fullest. Many psychologists interpret this phenomenon in their own way, but it always boils down to the fact that the patient considers himself unworthy of a better life, is afraid to please others and is simply tired of his life both physically and mentally. Hidden grievances, anger and dissatisfaction affect the state. It is under such factors that it is advisable to talk about the psychosomatics of pneumonia.
By the way, a disease caused by psychological disorders always manifests itself as chronic. For the first time it may occur in an acute form, accompanied by high fever, pain and chills, but after the cure it returns in the form of a prolonged cough.
Help for illness
Even if everyone around is sure that the disease is the result of psychosomatic disorders, it is impossible to refuse medical treatment. Untreated pneumonia can be fatal and only medication can help to cope with it. You can solve the problem on your own only for the purpose of prevention, eliminating the riskthe transition of the disease to a chronic form and its subsequent relapses.
According to the interpretation of the famous psychologist Louise Hay, the psychosomatics of pneumonia in adults should be solved with a detailed analysis of their own problems, which could cause the disease. After realizing them, it is necessary to find ways to solve stressful situations, even if they seem unrealistic, they should still be considered and included in the list of possible solutions. It is imperative to forgive everyone who is offended, or those who are angry and accuse from the outside. Anger, complaints about life and other bad thoughts should be immediately stopped and not accumulated in the soul.

Features of childhood illness
Psychosomatics of pneumonia in a child differs significantly from adult factors and repels mainly from the personalities of the parents and psychological discomfort. Reasons may be:
- misunderstanding on the part of adults;
- despond;
- frequent humiliation;
- offense against adults;
- uncertainty;
- unawareness of self-importance.
Very often children witness family conflicts, insults, screams and quarrels of adults, which also affects the psychological state of each child. Regular humiliations, phrases: “Why did I give birth to you”, “You are not capable of anything”, “You are a disgrace to the family” and the like have a strong emotional blow to a fragile soul.
Of course, the cause of the disease can really be a weakened immune system or clothes that are not suitable for the weather, but such cases are actually very rare.
In general, such negative factors are often the causes of many respiratory diseases - asthma, tuberculosis, bronchitis, pneumonia. The Louise Hay Psychosomatics Table confirms this, considering the causes of each ailment in only a little more detail and depth, but they can all be generalized.

Be sure to hold family conversations, where the child can share his desires and explain his own behavior, and the parents, in turn, talk about their dissatisfaction. Ways to resolve conflicts with children must be sought jointly, but adults cannot be involved in family relationships.
Unrealized interests and restriction of freedom should also be considered as the cause of the disease. Psychosomatics of pneumonia is also defined as a ban on visiting certain sections, unaccounted for children's opinion in choosing clothes, constant comparison with peers.
