About Friedreich’s ataxia

"By the use of willpower we reject the unwanted and do everything possible to maintain a healthy balance."

Friedreich’s ataxia is a neurological behaviour, a reflex/reaction triggered when we react with extreme emotion to certain situations.

Highly complex mental processes drive us to high emotional levels where we become vulnerable to the pressures of emotional influences and deem ourselves inadequate.

Friedreich’s ataxia is a mental preoccupation that develops into a complete shutdown.

The fear and lack of understanding of the emotional reactions force the body to weaken. The more the body slows down the stronger the symptoms for Friedreich’s ataxia appear.

Peer pressure and having the wrong perceptions of criticism trigger a feeling of isolation where we become unable to express ourselves naturally.

Causes of Friedreich’s ataxia

Emotions play an extremely influential role in Friedreich’s ataxia.

Although it is believed that Friedreich’s Ataxia is a genetically inherited condition, no other family members are affected. The gene is stable at birth. The Friedreich’s ataxia gene is triggered between the ages of 5 and 12 years.

The extreme emotional reactions and reflexes of experiences during this time trigger the gene associated with Friedreich’s ataxia to become active.

This behaviour may be present in many but it does not necessarily need to manifest to create the physical symptoms that most sufferers of Friedreich’s ataxia develop.

Friedreich’s ataxia is a dis-eased mind where the mind perceives events and experiences as emotional traumas.

An overload of emotions fuses the nervous system where nerves begin to shutdown. Depending on where the focus and attention is directed determines the area of the physical body that is affected.

Emotional reactions develop and manifest into a severe influence creating a twisting action on the physical body where we lose focus and co-ordination.

Understanding Friedreich’s ataxia

The desire to overcome Friedreich’s ataxia requires absolute commitment to achieving set objectives to implement a new behaviour that will improve quality of life and wellbeing.

At The Mind Clinic the mind instruction process for Friedreich’s ataxia begins with counselling to explain the results of emotional perceptions that cause physical deterioration. Once understood and applied, behaviour alters and deterioration is halted through mental-physical rehabilitation.

As physical improvement takes place, what is believed to be weakness in the heart becomes void. As the whole muscular system becomes reconnected, this allows the heart to function more naturally.

Once focus is established co-ordination and balance regenerate and improve.

The combination of mental-physical rehabilitation and counselling creates a balance between mind, brain, body and emotions.

Questions and Answers for Friedreich’s ataxia

Q. Friedreich’s ataxia is a degenerative condition. How can you stop the deterioration?

A. As in all conditions, when Friedreich’s ataxia becomes active it influences behaviour. The physical response to situations begins with small unnoticeable alterations. Once it repeats itself it begins to magnify, taking over and changing the body’s natural behaviour.

After the onset of any alteration in behaviour, the body must be brought back under control rather than continuing to comply and accept. This will force you to maintain a balanced control over your body and stop deterioration.

If Friedreich’s ataxia is dealt with immediately after diagnosis you will learn the mechanics and apply the necessary changes to create a new way of life.

Q. How can I increase my energy levels so I am not so tired and fatigued?

A. When you have a condition of this nature your natural breathing pattern from the physical demands is reduced, making the slightest effort in anything that you do will feel tiring.

You must ensure that you increase the depth of your breathing to create more energy. Deep breathing exercises activate your mind to give more powerful thoughts, which drive the mind to respond to the physical behaviour. When you demand power, you must breathe objectively to attain power.
