Accelerated Healing

Recipe for Accelerated Healing Through Guided Imagery

You should practice relaxation before doing these exercises so that your subconscious brain is less resistant to the suggestions. Breathing in a regulated manner – inhale (nose), hold your breath, exhale (through the mouth) while counting backwards 20 to 1.

The key is to develop a deep belief that your muscle or joint or break will heal and be better and stronger than before the injury happened.

Key elements

1.	Program yourself to stay in the present to avoid dwelling on the past, or worry about the future. Trick: when you feel like you're getting anxious or worried, say the word "NOW". Repeat to refocus to the present.

2.	Be very diligent and disciplined in doing what is required to enable your body to do its healing job: - eat well, drink plenty of fluids - get your therapy - get good sleep - stay off alcohol as much as possible (and drugs absolutely) - take extra vitamins E and C (rebuilding and inflammation) 3.	Learn to relax completely: use breathing exercises, contracting and releasing muscles, imagining that you're relaxed (mental guided imagery).

4.	Through an affirmation (I am completely healed, My leg is stronger and healthier than before, etc - NOTICE THE PRESENT AS IF IT HAD ALREADY HAPPENED) that you have written and read aloud twice a day (repeat the affirmation 5 times), you install a new belief that eliminates anxiety and worry about not healing properly. In doing so, you will release your mental energy to guide the healing process. You will also remove the unconscious tendency to favour that part of your body when you go back on the field.

5.	Visualize your injury healing. Starting with a relaxation exercise, prepare your subconscious brain to accept the suggestion. Then, close your eyes and focus on the injured area in your mind. Imagine the healing process; some picture, sound or feeling will appear in your mind's eyes. That's the representation of how your body is healing the injury. It may be a laser beam out of the sky, crackling sound, a feeling of warmth or whatever your imagination creates to represent the process. Entertain that image or video for a few seconds each time you imagine the healing. Preferrably, you'll want to apply the technique when you're getting physiotherapy.

Imagining the healing should be an exercise that you do at least twice a day.

RESULT:	healing accelerated by as much as 50 percent. Belief is very effective in guiding autonomous processes such as healing.

The reader is encouraged to ask questions in order to deepen the understanding and belief that supports this effective mental action.
