The Five Rules for Mind-Body Healing

The Five Rules for Mind-Body Healing

William Braud outlined five major mental techniques that he believed have important effects on the self-healing processes.

They include:

1. The need for relaxation and quietude.
2. Learning to focus your attention on one thing (e.g. breathing), which allows you to develop mental self-control and avoid distractions.(The above two points are achieved through meditation).
3. Learning visualization or imagery techniques since pictures are the preferred language of the mind.
4. Incorporating intent into the process, a wish for some goal to be reached and an expectation that it will.
5. The evocations of strong positive emotions during the healing process.

The Technique for Self-Healing

The following is the basic technique. The more advanced techniques are beyond the scope of this e-book.

The Basic Technique

1. Go to your alpha level of mind.

2. Visualize Your Current State of Health on Your Mental Screen.

We explained the mental screen in Chapter 4
Visualize the current condition of the body, including the ailment or pain that is bothering you. You do not need to memorize or know what each component of your body actually looks like. Simple pictures are enough to speak to your mind. A lung can be imagined as a balloon. A kidney can resemble a kidney bean. Create a representative picture of the ailment. Feel the emotions associated with this problem.

3. See Yourself Healing and Getting Better and Healthier.

Now visualize the ailment disappearing. Create, with your imagination, a system to remove the ailment.
Examples:

• Kidney stones can be crushed into harmless powder that is then excreted.
• Tumors can be visualized as large black blobs, while your immune system and white blood cells are visualized as tiny soldiers attacking the tumor. On each attack the tumor shrinks.
• A sore muscle can be bathed in an imaginary healing light that alleviates the pain and restores the muscle to a healthy state.

The exact image you use is irrelevant – create something that speaks to you. It does not have to be scientifically correct. It only has to be symbolic. Your subconscious mind will get the message.

4. Let the final picture be one of perfect health.

Feel the joy and energy of having perfect health. Imagine it to be true and already occurring.
It helps to say an affirmation such as:
“I have a perfectly healthy body and mind”
or
“My ______ is now functioning perfectly and is in a state of excellent health.”

5. Let Go.

Let go and trust your body’s self-healing ability. You can now come out of the alpha level. Trust that the healing action is taking place.

Please note that mental healing should not be used as a replacement for a visit to your doctor. Always consult a doctor first for serious health conditions. Mental healing is a type of complementary medicine – as the name suggests it is to be used alongside but not as a replacement for modern medicine.

No matter what type of healing you use – conventional medicine, surgery, or more holistic therapies such as acupuncture, yoga, or massage – the Silva Life system can speed and smooth the normal healing process amazingly.

Silvalifesystem.com - I have not tried this program but I do know that this works. Our minds are very powerful!

With natural healing you can use your mind to heal yourself from within.

Every time I walk past a pharmacy or listen to ads on the TV about a new drug, it makes me shudder.

Just the mere sight of shelves and shelves of pills stacked upon pills... it makes me annoyed!

Have a headache? Pop an aspirin.

Want to lose weight? Pop a diet pill.

Can't focus at work? Pop a Ritalin pill.

Every possible thing you can think of has an over the counter pill solution.

And with society accepting that pharmaceutical companies are the experts, we've become a pill-popping culture.

I think this is one of the saddest things about modern society. 
We have been trained to believe that our bodies are against us.

I know about the power of natural healing, and I know that pills are not only often unnecessary... they can even be harmful.

I am sure you know that drugs only fight the symptom - not heal the cause. Plus they will always have side effects. Even if you don't see it yet, the side effects will accumulate and cause more harm to your
body in the long run.

But the mind-body connection to heal from within is both strong and powerful. And there's no such thing as side effects with natural healing.

With natural healing you can use your mind to heal yourself from within.

In Gratitude - sometimes you just need to take a break

I've found, that in life, sometimes you just need to take a break. 

Take the time to Exit out of this "world" and be by yourself. I've spent the last day and a half in bed under the covers, sleeping and thinking, and sorting out all those loose thoughts into some order. I like to call it The Bigger Picture. I lay there and visualize the outcome of my hard work.

Take the time for expansion of self-discovery, prayers, healing, thoughts, and goals all about you or about the world at large. Meditate and think. Spend time quiet, in a relaxed state. Keep positive. Sleep. Take time to be away from all the responsibilities of life. 

When I was young, I learned that being sick was like a break from the madness to heal. I spent a lot of time sick as a child.

Sometimes we wear ourselves out. 

Take a time out to heal. 

It’ll do a body good.

In Gratitude - Say Love

So many thoughts 

puncture our world!

 

Everyone: start focusing once a day on really saying the word love in everything you do and think positive and healing thoughts for everyone in this world. 

If you stop those destructive thoughts and replace it with the word love, you might find yourself smiling a bit more.

 

The power of the mind is more than we know so sometimes you have to have faith.

Did you know, you are praising the Source?   

We are all the Source. 

We are all one. 

We are a collective.

So enjoy the ride you got … you might get to go on different ride again … but just as Santa knows if you’ve been good or bad … so does the Source. Every bad thing you do counts against you … karma’s a bitch they say.  But you can reverse the bad by doing good and acting good and forgiving yourself and others, bringing love back into our families and communities and thus for our world and everything that exists....

It’s easy as 123. 

That’s what I see. 

I love you.
