Your body knows. . . How to heal itself. Think about that. It's the essence of Access healing. |
| Everyday Miracles Have you ever wondered why some people enjoy perfect health, and others don't? For most of us, health is our natural state of being. Although doctors diagnose disease, they do not know why it affects certain people and not others. They cannot explain why certain people survive against all odds, or go into remission. They accept death and loss as expected aspects of their work. They also know that non-medical factors are key in the effectiveness of their treatments. After surgery a patient with 'nothing to live for' does not recover the way another, with a 'strong will to survive for her family' does. And bedside manner has been proven a factor in the recovery of patients. Many years ago the Placebo Effect was discovered. Doctors in one study successfully eliminated warts by painting them with a brightly colored, inert dye and promising patients the warts would be gone when the color wore off. In a study of asthmatics, researchers found that they could produce dilation of the airways by simply telling people they were inhaling a bronchiodilator, even when they weren't. Patients suffering pain after wisdom-tooth extraction got just as much relief from a fake application of ultrasound as from a real one, so long as both patient and therapist thought the machine was on. Fifty-two percent of the colitis patients treated with placebo in 11 different trials reported feeling better -- and 50 percent of the inflamed intestines actually looked better when assessed with a sigmoidoscope ("The Placebo Prescription" by Margaret Talbot, New York Times Magazine, January 9, 2000) While we tend to think that it has application with others, but not with us, that would not seem to be true. Jesus may have been the first to truly understand that no disease is incurable, no condition too far gone. His miracles were misunderstood, attributed to him as proof of divinity. But his own words tell us that we could perform healing just as he did. That we were expected to. Disease is not a failure. It's not your fault. In fact, guilt and blame are blocks to healing. But health is a choice, and the body wants to assist us in achieving it. The healing processes of Access are about assisting the body. Aging, deterioration, and death are not the inevitable path of your life. You have choice. Any decision, judgement, conclusion, or compilation that you've made that's locking disease in your body, would you like to destroy and uncreate it now? |
