Psychosomatic Processes

According to the World Health Organization (1992), Health is the state of complete physical, mental, social and spiritual well-being of the human being, (WHO), is not the simple absence of disease and illness. According to the World Health Organization. Mental Illness is a morbid variation of normality, able to produce damage in the global performance of the person (social, occupational, family and personal) and / or people with whom they live. Being healthy does not mean only not having diseases, it depends on many factors, such as water, sewage in the community, health condition, having work and income, education, security, access to health services, leisure. Thus, you only have Integral Health when you have mental health, social balance and good living conditions. There is an emphasis on thinking the sick human being as a sick organ separated from himself. According to Melo Filho (1992 pg.34). We must take into account that it is not only a part of the body that is sick, but a whole, that is, body and mind, because mind and body cannot be separated.
