The
everyday thoughts we think, and the emotions
we feel directly affect our health.
It's
quite common now for meditation and alternative health
classes to be offered to cancer patients in hospitals
(which consists of some of the work I have been involved
in), whereas this was rarely offered 30 years ago.
With
the huge increase in popularity in alternative medicine,
it has put the emphasis back upon each individual to
maintain a healthy mind, body and spirit, instead of
thinking that health is decided by mere luck.
Over
the years it has become more and more apparent that
the mind has a huge influence over the body's general
state of health.
I
am a clinical hypnotherapist who has
worked with a vast array of clients and issues over
the years, to help them overcome their challenges
and improve their quality of life.
Emile
Coue was a famous pharmacist who was responsible for
thousands of remarkable documented healings at the beginning
of the 20th century simply by instilling a powerful
belief within his patients.
He
also made them recite a powerful healing affirmation
- "every day, in every way, I'm getting better
and better" which was made famous in the 70's
by one of John Lennon's songs.
In
more recent times doctors such as Dr. Carl Simonton
have had remarkable results with cancer patients
through his use of visualization, relaxation and instilling
a firm belief within the minds of his patients that
they would get well.
He
mentioned that the very first two AIDS patients
he treated in the early 1980's got well, as
they knew nothing about the disease and were not
conditioned to think about AIDS as being 'terminal'.
Dr
Deepak Chopra and Dr Herbert Benson have also created
much attention to the whole mind/body connection and
holistic healing.
Now
an avalanche of research shows stress to be
a major cause of illness.
Recently
the Garvan Institute discovered how stress causes a
hormone to be released into the bloodstream which inhibits
the immune system and makes people more susceptible
to getting sick.
Your
Inner Health-Protector - The Immune System
All
your bodily functions and your immune system are completely
controlled and co-ordinated by your subconscious mind,
and so this is basically the source of our levels
of health, assuming that the diet is relatively nutritious
and healthy.
The
subconscious controls the functioning of all your vital
organs and processes, such as keeping your heart pumping,
your breathing regular, your circulation constant, and
your cells regenerating.
This
continues even when you are asleep, which is when your
conscious mind has basically closed down for the night.
Your
powerful immune system contains almost every chemical
you will find in a drug store or pharmacy, and when
given the correct instructions, will release the correct
chemical (in the correct dose) into the bloodstream
to attain its goal of perfect health.
The
most powerful painkiller used in hospitals - morphine,
is often used by the body's immune system
to reduce or completely numb all pain.
Interestingly,
this is often the body's automatic reaction if
someone suffers a major bodily injury - they often black
out or do not feel a thing.
Your
immune system contains the powerful T cell which are
purely designed to kill cancer cells and other foreign
cells within the body.
When
given the correct instructions, the immune system can
dramatically increase the number of T cells to fight
such diseases within the body.
The
latest scientific research shows that our thoughts can
make us sick, and they can also help us get well, and
increasingly supports the role played by the mind in
physical health.
Scientists first proved a link between stress
and disease in the early 1900's and have examined
old and new practices—including biofeedback, meditation,
guided imagery, spiritual healing and deep breathing.
This
is a field now called psychoneuroimmunology, which examines
how the neurological and immune systems interact.
It
now provides new clinical evidence of the connection
between thoughts and health.
Here
is an example which highlights the power of the mind
in healing:
Under
hypnosis, someone who is simply told they are
being touched by a red-hot object, often will produce
a burn blister, even though the object touching
him was actually at room temperature.
The
“placebo effect” is another example of how
the mind/body connection works in healing - when
a patient believes something will relieve pain,
the body actually releases endorphins that do so.
In
a recent study, Parkinson’s patients who were given
fake surgery or fake drug treatments produced dopamine
(a chemical their bodies lack) in quantities similar
to those they might have received in a genuine medical
treatment.
There
is increasing evidence also that negative thoughts
and emotions can be harmful to the body.
Stress
is known to be a factor in heart disease, headaches,
asthma and many other illnesses.
The
good news is that there is growing clinical
evidence that imagery - or visualization - is beneficial
in treating many conditions.
These
include pain, skin disease, diabetes, breast
cancer, arthritis, headaches and severe burns,
among many, many others.

Mental
Techniques Which Accelerate Healing
Mental techniques such as relaxation, meditation, visualization,
hypnosis and affirmations have shown to boost
the body's immune system and accelerate the natural
healing process.
Yes,
even relaxing activities such as taking a bath, walking
amongst nature and deep breathing can help to bring
a healing response through relaxation, which boosts
the body's natural immune system.
It
is for this reason I created a mental audio recording
which is designed to boost the body's immune system.
This
is achieved using a combination of relaxation, positive
hypnotic suggestion and visualization, which combine
to activate the natural healing response from your subconscious
mind and immune system.
This
can help to both maintain
vibrant health or to accelerate the healing process
within the body.
The
recording guides you into a deeply relaxed state, then
sends powerful healing hypnotic suggestions
directly to your subconscious - which runs
your immune system.
It
then guides you through a healing visualization,
and then brings you out - all within a total
of 20 minutes.
This
means that even the busiest of people can fit the recording
into their busy schedule, as 20 minutes is all it
will take out of your day.
This
recording deepens and becomes more effective
each time you use it. (To order
