Our body functions, both controllable and uncontrollable are
all directed by our brain. This scientific fact is known to everyone, but we
tend to forget this fact when face some serious situations. In many cases when
a patient is being diagnosed by a deadly disease, panic and negative emotions
makes his case even worse.
Both mind and body are interdependent. If one is affected,
the other will automatically show some changes. You would have experienced this
in occasions when you were extremely worried and suddenly got diarrhea or fever.
The signs of stress and anxiety gets reflected on our face in form of wrinkles
and dark circles. Even doctors emphasizes more on the state of patients mind
and advices him to be happy and positive.
The self healing power of our mind has shown amazing
effects. Oscar winner David Seidler is one such extraordinary example. Seidler learned that his bladder cancer has returned even after his
initial treatment. With a strong will and positive imagination he visualized
that his cancer has been healed. He did not only imagine a clean bladder but
also believed that this happened. Surprisingly his cancer disappeared after a
scheduled surgery and he has been leading a cancer free life since then.
A lie when told a number of times tends to become true- a
statement that has changed many lives and showed them a wider horizon. When we
repeatedly tell something to our self after a while we start believing the
same. Acceptance becomes easy and our body reacts accordingly.
In one of the article I read about an American woman who suddenly
fell ill and was hospitalized. She came to know that she has been diagnosed
with breast cancer and doctors thought that she would not even live for eight more months. A colleague of
hers from office visited her with a small envelope the next day. When she opened it she found
seeds of tulip. Her colleague asked her to plant that seeds and assured her
that she would live to see the tulips the next spring which she thought would
never come for her. Her colleague’s positive message gave her a new spirit and
she not only saw the tulips but also lived for another ten years.
There are number of people who are living examples of
healing power of mind. They are the true legends who have survived because of
their strong will and send the same message to others in form of small anecdotes.
