A psychosomatic illness has, as its name implies, a psychological
cause. However, it is not something one can 'want'. It is not because
one wants an endogenous eczema (but who would?) that one has it. The
reason for this is that such an illness originates in the subconscious
mind. Now, psychosomatics encompass at least 70% of the reasons why
people consult their physicians. However, medicine has no good answer
to this. Autosuggestion is a good answer. In fact, it is rationally
the only real answer to psychosomatics, because it works
on the same level.
Addictions like smoking behavior and overeating are conditions that
originate in or are perpetuated by the subconscious mind too. One cannot
make oneself addicted through sheer will power (again, who would
want to?). Likewise, one cannot cure completely and efficiently from
an addiction through sheer will power. Contrary to this, autosuggestion
is a very strong cure if you know how to use it. In fact, the
same subconscious power one struggles against in order to overcome any
addiction is turned from an enemy to a collaborator through the appropriate
use of autosuggestion.
Miracle cures do happen. Sometimes people do cure from severe
illnesses through the power of their faith. But having real faith (whether
in God, in science, in alternative explanations...) is a strong autosuggestion.
In fact, autosuggestion is the central theme behind all kinds of miracle
cures. One can say that if God exists and wants someone to be cured,
the subconscious of that person, thus: the power of autosuggestion,
is more than probably God's preferred method.
It is well known and scientifically documented that the placebo effect
of medication easily attains more than 50% of the total desired effect.
In many cases, the success rate is even much higher. The placebo effect
mainly comes through the belief of the patient that he will become
better by taking his pills. Again, it is the faith/belief/expectation
that cures. In other words, the healing power comes from autosuggestion.
Medication has many dangerous side effects. If one can get to the placebo
effect without the placebo, it would be a huge improvement for millions
of patients. AURELIS as a project is being developed to accomplish this.
In matters of health, people are looking for more than present-day
allopathic medicine can give. They rightly sense that a kind of medicine
purely based on experimental science can only help in restricted domains
(but there of course, it can help very much). For most of what is intrinsically
human, more is needed. Therefore, in the US people already spend more
dollars on alternative medicine than on the totality of 'classical'
medicine. In European countries the trend points in the same direction.
AURELIS and the ideas about autosuggestion open up the whole domain.
This provides a very plausible explanation of what is happening and
leads people toward looking for healing power where it truly resides:
inside themselves.
