  The word Dianetics comes from the Greek dia, meaning through and nous, meaning soul , and is defined as what the soul is doing to the body. Dianetics is a methodology which can help alleviate unwanted sensations and emotions, irrational fears and psychosomatic illnesses (illnesses caused or aggravated by mental stress). It is most accurately described as what the soul is doing to the body through the mind. The mind is basically a communication and control system between the person and his environment. It is composed of mental image pictures, which are recordings of past experiences. The individual uses his mind to pose and solve problems related to survival and to direct his efforts according to these solutions. What is the Reactive Mind? The reactive mind is the portion of a person's mind which works on a totally stimulus-response basis, which is not under his volitional (willing) control, and which exerts force and the power of command over his awareness, purposes, thoughts, body and actions. The source of any negative emotion, attitude or feeling is fully revealed in Dianetics . The causes of a person's feelings of grief or loss are buried in the person's reactive mind, able to influence and control the person. Dianetics technology guides a person through his or her reactive mind to locate - and permanently eradicate - the actual source of the upset. With the cause of the upset handled, the person is once more able to live a happy, healthy life.
