The purpose of medicine is to help you shift your consciousness from unhealthy to healthy thoughts, to shift dis-ease to ease. Illness arises from an imbalance in the body’s energy. The creative process works in this order: thought, word, action/experience. So if you can choose your thoughts carefully and support them in word good health will be the result/experience. Of course this is a cycle, so the action/experience then leads to further thought and the cycle repeats. At least two in the cycle must be changed in order for shift to occur. “Wow, this medicine works great”, for instance (whether it actually works or not). And as long as thought is aligned with the words the result will be positive.
Medicine in our modern allopathic system treats the symptoms and not the dis-ease. This does work, esp. if you believe that it does. However the process involved in the medicine working is much like a filter on a movie projector lens. The source of the illness stays the same, but your view of it changes and thus as you believe you are well, the symptoms are gone, your thoughts then shift the source to align with healing. Just as the filter on the projector alters the image on the screen, medicine alters your perception of reality. Medicine need not be prescription to work, however the stronger the belief it does work the better the result and this goes for mass consciousness too. Meaning the more people believe a certain drug works, the more powerful the effect.
Your relationship with your doctor is vital to your recovery. Why? Because your thoughts about any situation determine the outcome. Positive loving thoughts aid the situation and negative or doubtful thoughts hinder the healing process. So if you like your doctor and think he/she is the greatest and/or the most capable, your healing experience will reflect this in the positive.
Now sometimes higher powers are at work and no matter what you do the outcome has been decided. This is often the case when a person is set to leave this world. Your method and time of death has already been chosen. So some things are not up to you! What is up to you always is how you handle it, so having a positive loving outlook produces less pain and more benefits for everyone involved. There is nothing more inspiring than to watch a loved one handle a dire situation with poise, courage, and dignity.
I trust you now know the importance of the saying “Attitude is everything” and why we take medicine, even if it is only a sugar pill (healing goes way beyond the placebo effect). By the way, surgery works in much the same way. Like rearranging the items in a room for a different Fung Shui, surgery shifts the effects or removes symptoms to allow the mind to balance the thoughts to healthy! So stay focused on being healthy even if the evidence seems contrary.
