	Susto
		Widespread throughout Latin America, susto is a folk illness associated with a broad array of symptoms.
		It is considered by susceptible populations to be a sickness caused by the separation of soul and body which is precipitated by a supernatural force.
		This study takes an interdisciplinary approach, looking for explanations of susto in the interaction of social, physiological, and psychological factors.

		Susto is a folk illness with strong psychological overtones defined as a "fright sickness" and (literally) a loss of soul from the body.
		However the most effective treatment for susto is a ceremony known as the barrida or "Sweeping".
		Since an individual may be more susceptible to susto when away from home, a preventive measure is to carry a whole nutmeg during journeys.

	CURANDERISMO 2
		A key type is susto (soul loss) caused by traumatic events, ranging from the relatively minor, such as a marathoner spraining an ankle, to the devastating, such as a woman getting raped.
		Susto is especially relevant for anyone disabled by accident or disease.
		Finally, after the limpia-assisted release of the negative beliefs, attitudes, and perceptions brought out by the pláticas, a soul-retrieval ceremony reclaims aspects of ourselves we have repressed through the susto created by life’s trials and tribulations, such as injury, violation, or trauma.
