Your body believes in images.

[Luna Arjuna]

Medical science confirms that the body does not seem to distinguish between an imaginal event and a physical event. Imagine yourself racing down a ski slope in a blur of snow, and your body’s electrical and chemical systems will respond as if you are out there on the mountain, as was confirmed long ago when sports psychologists wired up Olympic skiers.

You are naturally psychosomatic. The thoughts, feelings, and corresponding images you entertain can bring you up or bring you down, sometimes at amazing speed, as they program the fantastic pharmaceutical factory inside your body. So you want to develop your own pharmacy of healing images. Dreams, happy life memories, and stories from mythology and folklore will be vital sources.

You also want to call in the help of the animal doctors. Connecting or reconnecting with your spirit animals, which is at the heart of shamanic practice, gives an instant boost to your immune system and helps to clarify the natural path of your energies. You will also discover that in the imaginal realm you can travel to places of healing that are altogether real.
