Self-healing and self-restoration of the body is a wonderful gift that nature has given us. Sooner or later, bruises and scratches heal, colds go away, wounds heal. The body has a natural ability to heal itself. Our body and mind, physiology and psyche are closely connected with each other and represent a single system. For example, if you imagine yourself cutting a yellow juicy lemon, feel its smell, the sour juice that flows down your fingers, hear the creak of a knife on the lemon peel, you will probably swallow saliva. Your salivation has increased. The fact is that for our brain it makes no difference whether we actually cut a lemon or just imagine ourselves doing it. The endocrine glands respond to brain signals, regardless of whether the image is real or only in our imagination. The central nervous system, where our memories and emotions are located, is connected to the endocrine and immune systems through a network of neurotransmitters and biochemicals. Using this ability of our brain, we can activate our internal resources for self-healing. So, let’s encode the image of our illness so that the body begins to receive subconscious signals for self-healing. Identify your illness or injury that you want to heal. Imagine that you are already healthy. What will you see, hear, feel when you achieve the result? How will you know that the healing process is underway? Remember your illness or injury, which is similar to the current one and went away on its own. For example, scratches, colds, sprains. 4.Imagine this image. Where do you see him? Is there movement or is it stationary? How far is he from you? What colors are dominant? Can you hear sounds? How do you feel when you know that everything will work itself out? What does your inner voice say? What does it sound like? The answers can be written down. Imagine an image of your illness or injury and answer the same questions as in paragraph 4. Find the difference in how you see these two images. Recode your illness for self-healing. Move the image of illness to the image of self-healing. So if you see healing of a scratch on your hand on the screen, then place your illness, for example arthritis, on the screen too. Make the image of healing the disease completely coincide with the image of self-healing in color, size, distance, movement or lack thereof. Add the same feelings, the same voice. 8. Check again whether there is a difference between the two images in encoding, and achieve complete coincidence in sensations with the image of self-healing. 9. Pay attention to the sensation in your body when you think about the disease. And having walked along your life line into the past, find the first event, with the same sensation in the body, that triggered the disease. What is this event? What beliefs and beliefs did you take away from it? What did you think of yourself? 10. Accept yourself as you were then. Agree with all labels. Tell yourself: “Yes, I am, so what?” Change your beliefs to positive ones. 11. Check if there are secondary benefits to your illness. Relax, go within yourself and ask what positive things the disease gives you. It is quite possible that in this way part of you wants to get love, attention, rest or something else. Then agree with yourself how you will receive it in a different, more useful and convenient way. 12.Ask your unconscious mind what lifestyle changes need to be made to support the healing process. This could be a change in diet, sleep and rest time, inclusion of relaxation exercises in your daily routine, and more. Thank your unconscious for a job well done and expect changes. Now, when you think about your healing, imagine it only in a new way. You may feel changes immediately, or maybe after a while. Your unconscious mind chooses its own pace of recovery. Good health to you! Clinical psychologist Lyudmila Tomashevskaya.
