Awareness -> RE: A humble request (5/9/2011 3:19:12 AM)

I do not. All I have to offer is the possibility of alternatives. The one which immediately comes to mind is Brandon Bays. Diagnosed with a stomach tumour Bays undertook a form of NLP-based therapy and allegedly caused her stomach tumour to disappear within a very short time. Since that time, she's re-invented herself as a New Age spiritual guru - something I suggest you ignore. The practical usefulness is the possibility that there may be something in her method which aimed at healing past emotional hurts using a very specific therapy. Thus, what I offer to you is the very real belief that mind and body are intimately linked in a way which is not fully understood and the suggestion that undertaking an active examination of that possibility may be fruitful in a number of ways. While I'm not a believer in mumbo-jumbo, I do have a somewhat whimsical belief in the following passage from Shakespeare's Hamlet, wherein the title character states: "There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy." In a very real sense, our current understanding of the universe and ourselves is always in flux. While I would not suggest you avoid conventional therapies, I believe that supplementing them with those which acknowledge and utilise the mind-body connection to advantage is a course well worth undertaking. Regardless of the path you undertake, I wish Miryam a speedy recovery.
