All about healing..........
Does anyone know either:-
a) what is it in the human body that makes us 'heal' (physically, or mentally) ? - is it something totally biological, or must there be some other mechanism, the one that monitors the state of the body ? b) of any research and literature on this ? I ask, because it strikes me that that is one thing a computer (at our stage of knowledge) could never do.......... "help, my CPU is running a bit hot; fan's ok, but I can tweak the speed a bit.....hmmmmmmm voltage on that part of my circuitry is a bit high.....ah hang on , faulty condenser methinks.........O.K repaired that, now how's things ? - hmm not bad; not perfect, but I guess that's because I am feeling low at the moment, because my owner kicked my tower yesterday when I took too long to boot up, and I guess I am still upset with him..got a bit of a bruise in the 'feeling good chip"..well, I'll get over it"

 hardwarebased I don't know it a computer can fix itself, software based however, if my computer gets a virus, it will repair itself.About the healing that would be something like stamcells duplicating themselves or so.. we're working on that

If my computer stops working I just turn it off and then on again.
It's the same with my body. When it stops working I just turn it off by getting plenty of sleep. I feel refreshed in the morning. My foot has healed quite nicely this way. I have been sleeping 10 hours a day while injured. Turning your body off, by getting plenty of sleep, will heal it both physically and mentally. Thank goodness I don't have a job. I am trying to make up for 15 years of lost sleep. My body is repairing itself of 15 years of abuse.

I believe it is totally biological (and that includes psychological). I also think that energy healing is also totally biological (and mostly psychological).

It is true that positive thinking will aid in the healing process and negative thinking will actually make you sick.
We can slso aid the body in healing itself by eating foods that are not processed by man. Fresh ruits and vegetables. Whole grains, beans, nuts and fish. These all have healing affects when eaten regularly. Carrot juice, taken in large amounts can heal the body of cancer. Whole grains can stabilize blood sugar levels, and even help the body heal itself of damage, which causes low blood sugar levels, as in a hypoglycemic, and helps to slow down, and even reverse, some diabetic symptoms. www.MakersDiet.com God has designed our bodies to automatically heal themselves of certain injuries and sicknesses. When the body cannot heal itself properly, as with a serious injury or disease, we can ask God for a miraculous healing. This takes faith. Last edited by FFH; 01-17-2006 at 01:48 AM.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/006...Fencoding=UTF8 Dr. Norman Shealy http://www.normshealy.net/ anything by Dr. Deepak Chopra is good but you might want to check out... Quantum Healing: Exploring the Frontiers of Mind/Body Medicine (Paperback) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/055...Fencoding=UTF8 Also if you want to learn energy healing (just in case) this is a good book to be able to teach yourself... Quantum Touch: The Power to Heal (Paperback) By: Richard Gordon http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/155...lance&n=283155 I would also recommend going to the quantum touch website at: http://www.quantumtouch.com and ordering the CD. It's only a dollar and is very interesting. Let me know if I can be of any more help!

it's a very interesting topic. I can post a little article I wrote if you want. most of it comes from info from A Practical Guide to Vibrational Medicine : Energy Healing and Spiritual Transformation. I will anyway...
Scientific Validation for Hands on Healing Practices Paraphrased from A Practical Guide to Vibration Medicine By: Richard Gerber M.D. The increased acceptance for therapeutic touch-type therapies is due partly to a growing body of research that tends to validate some of the physiological changes and healing benefits claimed by TT (therapeutic touch) practitioners. Scientific research has shown TT healing to be effective in reducing anxiety, producing states of deep relaxation, and accelerating the healing of surgical wounds. One of The earliest pioneering scientists to study hands on healing was gerontologist Dr. Bernard Grad. Dr. Grad sought a way to disprove that hands on healing was just a psychological effect, (or the so-called placebo effect). To do so he watered barley seeds with a saline solution, since salt is a known inhibitor of plant growth. If a healer could positively affect the germination rate of saline-treated seeds, as well as the subsequent plant growth, the healers influence would have to come from something other than the power of belief. Grads Results showed that hands on healing produced real measurable effects in living systems beyond effects due to the power of belief. The barely seeds watered with the healer treated saline solution sprouted more frequently and produced taller, leafier plants with higher levels of chlorophyll at statistically significant levels, beyond the control group. Dr. Justa Smith, a biochemist who had studied how strong magnetic fields could accelerate enzyme activity, wondered if hands on healing might actually result from the healer’s ability to influence the body’s enzyme systems. The experiments proved rewarding, both the healer’s field and a strong magnetic field could accelerate enzyme activity. Oddly enough, Smith observed that certain enzyme solutions either speeded up or slowed down in their activity or in some cases remained unchanged. Since the healer never knew exactly what s/he was, holding the healer intentionality could not be responsible for the different changes in activity. Puzzled by the findings, Smith studied a biochemistry flow chart, and instantly realized that when the “bigger picture” of cellular biology was taken into account, the change in enzyme activity was always in the direction of greater energy reserve and increased health of the body’s cells! This finding seems to suggest that healing energy possesses some kind of innate biological wisdom! Dr. Dolores Krieger, a professor of nursing, decided to carry out research into hands on healing on a “complete” human being. She took patients with a variety of illnesses and split them into two groups. The only difference between the experiences of the two groups was that one received daily hand on healing session’s wile the others did not. Dr. Krieger searched for some parameter of body function whose change might indicate a healing response, in reviewing Dr. Grad’s work she noted that plants exposed to healing energy were richer in chlorophyll, a key molecule that is structurally similar to hemoglobin in human beings. Krieger measured hemoglobin levels in both the healer treated and control groups. When compared with the control group patients receiving healing showed rises in there hemoglobin levels and at statistically significant levels. The part that most surprised Dr. Krieger came after reviewing the files of her patents, many of whom had cancer and were taking drugs that tend to, lower hemoglobin levels. In Summary of these cases, hands on healing has been proven to do much of what its practitioners say it can, it has been proven in the medical world to be of use in providing a cost effective and non-invasive way to help people recover from a wide verity of ailments. Hospitals in other countries have many hands on healers on staff. By allowing volunteers to work in the hospitals, the United States is following suit although our progress is slow. Hands on healing is proving to be a truly powerful and fascinating phenomenon that cannot be easily explained solely based on the placebo effect.
