What seems spontaneous and without cause for us needs deeper study and understanding. In my experience and study, there is a consistent process at play in the connection between body, mind, and soul that manifests in chronic sickness and healing. I hope that this field of study and understanding can improve in the coming years to help make this spontaneous healing something understood and quantifiable so that we can guide people through to resolve soul/mind trauma and conflict and find healing at all levels of the person.

I’ve always thought it a strange idea to go to a professional stranger (doctor) to ask him to find out what is wrong with you.

Thus, the diagnosis.

Assume you’re good and healthy, and whatever might be troubling you will eventually go away on its own.

So far this has worked for me.

Much to learn about quantum physics, spiritual connection, and the observer effect. Why do active sun spots pipe down when facing Earth? Why do prayers work? Why does focusing of what you want, tend to get you there? Why does faith, love, and empathy calm the soul? What a wonderful mysterious creation we live in.

Wonderful share. You will help so many people with this video. Thank you! As so many others have, I left allopathic medicine behind after healing via more traditional/holistic modalities. That being said, my most remarkable (spontaneous) healing happened via a dream for which I will forever be grateful.

1. Even if it’s a supernatural cause, or a wholeness cause it is still a “cause”. But it would be more useful for us to know the connection between the causes and the effects. What if there was a reproducible formula for bettering our chances of preventing or recovering from illness.

2. As it stands we’re taking the proverb “healthy body - healthy mind” and turning it on its head to “healthy mind - healthy body”. Or perhaps we should even say that there’s a relationship between mind and body which is reflected in our health.

3. But in claiming mind health can affect body health we’re speaking anecdotally; we’re saying there are real life examples of spontaneous healing through improving mind health. We can’t claim we know why this relates to that. Until our miracle working medical researchers gain a more intricate understanding for how one cause results in a seemingly unconnected effect we can only think of it as a magical relationship. We must simply take it for granted.

4. Fortunately though improving all aspects of health turns out to be beneficial for many things, not least of all the improvement of our experience of life itself.
