In Continuation on the subject of belief ,The story below will give more insight on this .
In 1981, Insurance boss Morris Goodman was piloting a plane when
it crashed. His injuries were extremely severe: his neck was broken
in two places (the first and second vertebrae), the nerves to his
diaphragm had been severed and his diaphragm itself was crushed so
badly that he lost his ability to swallow, to speak or to breathe without
a respirator. The rest of his nerves were damaged so badly that he
suffered a disfunctioning of the kidney and liver and was paralyzed
from the neck down.
His doctors gave him a 1 in 1000 chance of surviving. Even if he did
survive, they were convinced that he would never regain control over
his bodily functions and would have to remain in a wheel chair for the
rest of his life.
What saved Morris’s life was his belief and faith that he would find
a way to cure himself and walk out of the hospital with no mechanical
aid. His doctors and nurses tried to convince him that it was
impossible and that he was not being realistic about his injuries.
‘I didn’t care what medical science expected. I cared what I expected.
And that was to beat the odds and walk out of the hospital a normal
man.’ Morris said.
Through the use of creative visualization and intense physiotherapy,
Morris’s recovery baffled his doctors as he started gaining control
over his breathing & swallowing reflexes. He then started to gain
control over his limbs and the rest of his body. Within six months,
he had attained near full recovery and was able to walk out of the
hospital without the use of any mechanical aid.
To this day, Morris Goodman still goes around the life insurance
industry, giving inspirational talks about the power of beliefs on
performance. Many books and audio programs have been authored
on this person they term the ‘miracle man’.
Another Miracle Man, so dubbed by Newsweek International
(Australian Edition) in their cover story in 2003, is Australian vet
Dr Ian Gawler.
Gawler, who cured himself of final stage cancer (he had one leg
amputated below the kneecap), went on to help others with a 10-day
Cancer retreat program where ‘creative visualisation’ is one of the
techniques he teaches his cancer clients (many of whom cancer
specialists had given up on), with incredible success. Now in his fifties,
Gawler also recently climbed Mt Everest with his one good leg.
In Gawler’s retreat, the holistic and natural approach to cancer also
utilizes yoga and/or qi gong, both of which use breath control and
meditation (mind control) to heal and boost the immune system.
And last but not least, an organic vegetarian diet.
