Emotional Health and Psychosomatics

As part of the “Mental Health” lecture series at the Academy of Thinking, a salon talk will be held with Maia Khositashvili.

Topic: “Emotional Health and Psychosomatics”

This meeting will explore the relationship between emotional well-being and psychosomatic conditions.
We will discuss how unprocessed emotions, chronic stress, and early trauma can contribute to the development of health issues.

Modern research confirms that the mind–body connection is not just a theory — it’s an empirical reality studied by psychoneuroimmunology.
Attendees will gain insights into psychosomatic mechanisms, emotional regulation strategies, and psychological resources for restoring inner balance.

Topics to be covered:

• The key psychological factors behind psychosomatic illnesses

• What emotional health really means and what our emotional life looks like

• The price we pay — with our health — for suppressing feelings or masking them with emotional "makeup"

• What messages our body sends through illness, and how to interpret those signals in a psychosomatic context

Event partner: Integra — the Mental Health Center of the Academy of Thinking.

Participation is available both in person and online via Google Meet.

A light reception and a welcoming atmosphere await you.
Duration: 2–3 hours
