AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES AND BODY-MIND-SOUL: Spiritual Aspects of the Causes of Diseases

In Autoimmune Diseases. A Body–Mind–Soul Perspective, Dr. Ewa Danuta Białek invites readers into a much deeper exploration of illness — one that moves beyond symptoms alone and seeks to understand the human being as a whole.
Drawing on her background in immunology, years of holistic health research, psychosynthesis, and personal healing experience, the author presents an integrative perspective connecting:
• the immune system,
• chronic stress,
• emotional trauma,
• consciousness,
• lifestyle,
• and the spiritual dimensions of human life.
The author addresses the question: What challenge lies ahead of me in delving into my story, the underlying causes of my illness? The book arose from my need to understand the nature of autoimmune diseases, having previously overcome fibromyalgia.
This book is part of her model of lifelong education, developed over thirty years of scientific, educational, and psychosynthesis practice.
This book explores the possibility that autoimmune illnesses may reflect not only biological dysregulation, but also long-term inner overload affecting the entire organism:
• the nervous system,
• endocrine system,
• emotional life,
• and the deeper layers of human experience.
At the center of the book lies a profound question:
What happens when the body begins attacking itself?
The author examines how chronic stress, unresolved emotional wounds, trauma, fear, suppression, and disconnection from oneself may gradually weaken the body’s inner balance and resilience.
Readers are encouraged to look at illness not only as an enemy to fight, but also as a message inviting deeper awareness, responsibility, and transformation.
Rather than separating body and psyche, the author presents health as a dynamic state of harmony between:
body,
mind,
emotions,
consciousness,
and soul.
This book is especially valuable for readers who:
• live with autoimmune or chronic illnesses,
• seek deeper causes behind recurring symptoms,
• are interested in psychosomatics and holistic healing,
• wish to understand the impact of stress and trauma on health,
• or feel that healing must involve more than symptom management alone.
A book for those who feel that true healing begins when we stop seeing ourselves as fragmented — and start rediscovering our wholeness.

The author cites dozens of scientific papers and studies, but dives much deeper into the topic, including not only the body but the mind and soul. From this great synthesis emerges not only a picture of ourselves as multidimensional but also the reasons we get sick and what we can do to prevent it for ourselves and for generations to come. Ignorance of these problems is already taking a "toll" on the so-called "broken brain" that is already gripping trillions of people worldwide.
