Since We Know That Negative Emotional Behavior (E.g. Grief, Fear, Anger,) Has Negative Effects on the Body…?

Question by Black Tensegrity Warrior: Since we know that negative emotional behavior (e.g. grief, fear, anger,) has negative effects on the body…?
Is it a stretch to comprehend that positive emotional behavior (e.g. interest, cheerfulness, enthusiasm, serenity) can have positive effects on the body- including health & healing, mental acuity and intelligence, enhancement of senses, etc.?

That is, modes of behavior- deliberately planned beliefs, thoughts, words, and actions- can have predictable effects on the mind and body, which enhance or degrade life by triggering and guiding the body’s ability to generate natural stimulants and medicines, or toxic poisons as the case might be.

Would the same beliefs, thoughts, words, and actions invoked repetitiously, not max out the body’s ability to produce such substances, and produce effects unknown to people not used to prolonged exposure to the emotional moods or state of mind and body evoked. (Who would know what would happen if someone recited, for instance, Psalm 23, Isaiah 53, or “The Lord’s Prayer” 1,000 times a day? For instance, what if said person had just suffered a debilitating lung disease? Or had dyslexia?)

Would those who practiced such things have the same opinion and knowledge of the limits of ability of mind and body as those who never had done nor seen them done before? Would it be unrealistic to expect that such people as practice such disciplines might attain, relative to those who do not, *superHuman ability,* or at the very least, extraordinary skill?

What would be a suitable name to describe such repetitive activity?
