“Seeing is believing.”
What would you think if we changed that idiom to “Believe it, and you will see it?”
Too often such shifts in thinking present challenges many find difficult, if not impossible, to believe and accept, especially those who suffer with chronic illnesses while wondering how they can find a cure, relief or acceptance of their “lot in life” that can, or will, ease their daily miseries.
There are various methods one can use, but biofeedback probably is the one healthcare professionals use the most to motivate their patients.
However, as a retired holistic healthcare professional, I was one who went out of my way to instill in my clients the importance of mind over matter, plus the extraordinary influences of using one’s voice to program how the body, mind and spirit react to positive affirmations. Those clients, who used vocal affirmations, improved faster than those who were skeptical. One affirmation most clients liked and used is “I am getting better every day in every way.”
There is a mysterious quality, plus value, how vibrations of the human voice can program and effectuate positive cellular reactions.
May I direct you to “The Power of Spoken Words” wherein Dr. Zahed says, “Words have energy and power with the ability to help, to heal, to hinder, to hurt, to harm, to humiliate and to humble.” Furthermore, it’s been said those who sing hymns during church services, actually pray twice! Interesting?
One of the ways I encouraged individuals to use affirmations was to structure their spoken words toward specific health-affirming certainties so their bodies, minds, life energy meridians, Chi, and spirits can relate with positive assurances. By that I mean addressing the specific health issue, problem or chronic disease you want to be healed, e.g., heart disease, arthritis, cancer, specific acute or chronic health problem. That distinction, I found, can work wonders, especially when positive affirmations are used during prayer and meditation on a regular daily basis. One affirmation to start your routine could be “Today is the day the Lord hath made, I rejoice and am glad to receive blessings of health.”
If we can change our attitudes to be grateful, joyful and forgiving in spite of our sufferings, I contend we will experience special graces that put our minds at ease; program us to be relaxed, less nervous; and eventually we experience positive health changes that will be occurring in our bodies, even if they only are acceptance and peace of mind.
Esoterically there’s acknowledgement that disease first manifests within one’s aura, and eventually ‘downloads’ into the physical body at some point in time when we probably are most vulnerable, i.e., during stressful situations; engaging in addictions; or caught in an unrelenting condition known as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Stress of any type adversely affects our adrenal glands, which allopathic medicine still is up in the air about whether it exists or not. However, if you feel you have adrenal stress, do your homework; seek out an integrative or holistic healthcare physician to discuss your symptoms; and find out what type of ancillary supplementation would be recommended for you.
Incidentally, humans manifest “several bodies”: physical, emotional, mental, spiritual and astral bodies.
