A Situation We Cannot Control
I find that whenever we are in a situation we cannot control, we find resources we never have used before. Our habits are associated to who we think we are, but in a situation where the conditioned you becomes useless, another part of you emerges from deep within. Of course, we would never choose to be in that situation, but when you are, let go of the conditioned you and allow a spiritual you to emerge. When you feel defeat seems inevitable, use that situation to have a greater you emerge.
After 29 years of dealing with a chronic illness that has no cure, I was forced to venture into a wonderful reality I had ignored. Simply to deal with this struggle, I had to tap inner resources that I had not had to use before. For instance, I learned a confidence that enabled me to deal with a disabled body as I kept contact with the world I grew up in. I learned that my brain created the reality my body responded to and that I had the ability to control that. I had to grow and adapt to a new reality; I was legally blind with several other handicaps, but I felt connected to family and friends.
Now, as I approach the third decade of this struggle, I am applying the skills I learned to better the quality of my life. Imagine if you had confidence in your relationships, spiritual aspirations and the way you worked; your struggle could be seen as an incredible gift. I propose that we have the power to turn our greatest challenges into an incredible opportunity to grow. By doing that, we become better able to deal with the challenges before us.

The Blind-Zone is where your thoughts and perceptions are not as important as your life and deepest inner wisdom. - Ultimate Healing; Mind/body
When you look at an ultimate healing; you have to consider the mind of the patient as you focus on healing the body. If you heal the body without healing the mind there really isn’t a complete healing. In this article we look at how thinking habits can easily be changed so the way illness is interpreted supports the healing process. What we think in our mind has immediate effects on the experience of the body. Our interpretations have the ability to increase the stress we feel and stress has an influence on our immune system and how we respond to medical treatments. We have the power to control our interpretations and if that helps our medical treatments only 10%; it is a good idea to look at that part of our life seriously. The creations of our mind aren’t how we can cure our illnesses; but if the way we use our mind limits us in any way we have to correct that to heal at our full potential. We have the power to create new thinking habits so we interpret reality differently. If the way we think can influence our health only 10%, that increase is nothing to ignore. 10% of a million dollars is significant and a 10% in healing is significant also.
