USING CREATIVE IMAGERY TO BATTLE VIRUS INFECTIONS

Posted under Herbal by admin

If you carried out the hand warming technique just described, you have already used creative imagery successfully. Creative imagery consists of making clear, mental pictures of what you want to happen. You accompany the pictures with silently-worded suggestions. These powerful thought-images then make a clear statement to the subconscious of whatever you wish to achieve. Through regular repetition of these images, you send pictures of your goals deeper and deeper into your subconscious. Gradually, the subconscious releases powerful inner forces that work subliminally to make your goals a reality.

Although we intend to use creative imagery here to speed recovery from a cold or flu, the same techniques can be used to attain any kind of goal, whether it be financial prosperity, or owning a new home or car, or becoming whatever you want to become.

What actually happens is that we circumvent the conscious mind, with all its critical and analytical functions, and we communicate directly with the subconscious. The subconscious uncritically accepts all the thoughts, images, feelings and beliefs we feed into it. All we need do is to give the subconscious a clear, vivid picture of the goal we desire. The subconscious will then motivate the mind-body to make these images real.

In this case, we are asking the subconscious to fortify the immune system and increase its aggressiveness in destroying invading viruses. So for maximum success, it’s best to prepare your mental pictures and suggestions in advance. Write down exactly what you want to heal. Make a rough sketch of each mental picture and write out each suggestion.

For example, you will wish to visualize your B cells multiplying into huge armies and then manufacturing billions of antibodies. Imagine a B cell as a white bean. You need only visualize a dozen or so at one time. See each “bean” cell split itself in half and form two new cells. Then see each of these cells divide and become two more “bean” cells. And so on. Then visualize each B cell spewing out small antibodies shaped like darts. Each B cell can manufacture hundreds of antibodies.

Along with this mental image, you can silently suggest “My B cells are multiplying rapidly.” Later, as you picture the B cells manufacturing antibodies, silently repeat: “My B cells are producing billions of antibodies. Each antibody will destroy a cold (or flu) virus.”

You can also picture macrophages as large white cells. These, too, you can visualize as dividing and multiplying. Make a similar picture of killer T cells replicating. They are about the same size and shape as B cells.
