It’s very similar to what John Sarno (author of Healing Back Pain and The Mindbody Prescription) preaches, as well as Howard Schubiner. There’s also a rationalist-adjacent dude who started a company (Axy Health) based on these principles. Fuck if I know how any of it works though, and it doesn’t work for everyone. Congrats though TurnTrout!
If you want to try out the hypothesis, I recommend that he (or you, if he’s not receptive to it) read Sarno’s book. I want to reiterate that it does not work in every situation, but you’re welcome to take a look.

My Dad it seems might have psychosomatic stomach ache. How to convince him to convince himself that he has no problem?
