Guest guest Posted July 24, 2000 Report Share Posted July 24, 2000 Hi gang, I heard yesterday from a good friend about two people she knows (one a friend, and one a neighbor so it's not like reading it in the National Enquirer or anything :-) who had so much cancer the doctors could do no more. One of those people did have chemo, then spent a couple months at some clinic in Idaho learning to do visualization. The other just learned to do imagery on his own, taught by his wife who knew how to do it. They did this very, very consistently and today neither person has any evidence of cancer. My thinking is -- you know where this is going -- if it could work on something as bad as cancer, what effect might it have on a degenerative disease like arthritis? Just a rhetorical question to kick off this week!! --Louise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 24, 2000 Report Share Posted July 24, 2000 Louise, Thanks for those words of hope. I am a believer. I strongly believe that we can control SOME things with minds. I am willing to look into it. Thanks again for the info.

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2000 Report Share Posted July 24, 2000 Hi, Louise: This is not a foolish question. At the NPF " conference " I attended in Seattle in early July (or late June, I don't remember which), one of the presenters talked about a study currently underway with someone who does creative visualization on arthritis. You would have to get ahold of the outfit in Portland to find out what the study is, but the person talking (I think it was the NPF director) said that they were getting some promising results.

Guest guest Posted July 25, 2000 Report Share Posted July 25, 2000 Louise - where can we find out more about visualization? Moderator note: I do know there is a book out written by Harp about three minute meditations. Might be worth a trip to the library to see if there is more Pat B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
