There is a well-established link between our emotional state and our physical wellbeing that shows how stress can impact our health. Learn about the effects of stress and how to manage it with coMra.
The link between our mental state and our physical well-being has been well-established and shows that various stressful emotions can affect our health. Researchers including Norman Cousins, Hans Selye and Lyubov Garkavi have built a compelling body of knowledge on this topic, and allow us to outline some of the connections in the following way:

To understand the direct link between emotional stress and the hallmarks of disease, we need to keep in mind that each emotion is a call to action and that it is registered both in your human awareness and also within your physical body.1
COMRA AND EMOTIONAL WELLBEING
Knowing which hallmark of disease is manifesting in your body gives you an important clue to your emotional state. But what to do about it?
Using coMra therapy, one can at first, stabilize and resolve the immediate mental “emergency,” calming the nervous system and preventing stress from overwhelming the body.
Then, coMra works at the cellular level to harmonize this effect with the physical body – stimulating ATP production, improving circulation, and supporting tissue repair.
This ensures that the physical impact of stress is actively addressed in the immediate short term and helping prevent unresolved emotions from embedding themselves as chronic pain, inflammation, or illness in the medium term. By restoring both emotional balance and cellular function, coMra therapy helps break the cycle whereby continuing emotional strain fuels physical deterioration, allowing for true, lasting well-being.
How The Body Responds
Our bodies respond to stress and external stimuli in different ways:
- Building Resilience – Small amounts of stress help the body grow stronger and more adaptable.
- Healing Activation – When exposed to the right support to manage its stress levels like coMra therapy, the body is able to make beneficial adjustments in bringing about the healing it needs.
- Overload and Burnout – Too much stress can lead to two types of strain:
- Short-term stress kicks the nervous system into high gear.
- Long-term stress weakens the body over time, making it more vulnerable to illness and negatively impacting its healing ability from existing chronic conditions
coMra therapy supports the healing activation response, helping the body adjust and recover naturally.
