FIGURE 1Selye’s General Adaptation Syndrome updated to emphasize the mind-modulating role of the limbic-hypothalamic system on the autonomic, endocrine, and immune systems. The state-dependent memory and learning theory of therapeutic hypnosis is illustrated by the limbic system “filter” (square box) surrounding the hypothalamus.

FIGURE 5Mind modulation of the
endocrine system, with three examples at the cellular level
of the still theoretical “mind/gene connection.”
FIGURE 4Mind modulation of the autonomic nervous system and its two branches, the sympathetic (activating) and the parasympathetic (relaxing), down to the cellular level.

FIGURE 6Mind modulation of the immune system: some of the neurotransmitters of the autonomic nervous system and hormones of the endocrine system that communicate with the immune system, and the immunotransmitters that “talk back.”
