Can You Heal Yourself?

The law of the universe is simple: what you focus your attention on is what you will receive. Focus on negatives, and you will receive more negatives in your awareness. Focus on positives, and you will find more and more to be thankful for.

It can be difficult, I admit, to focus on positives -- and really FEEL positive about anything -- when it doesn't feel like anything is going right. It's especially tough when it's your health that's not "cooperating." It's easy to get negative and start to believe untrue statements like, "This is the way it's always going to be;" "There's nothing I can do about this;" "I'm just going to have to live with this."

Well, I don't think I have to tell you that that kind of thinking is bullshit, even if it comes from a doctor. The fact is, what is possible is determined entirely by what you believe, whether that be continuing in long-term illness or depression or poverty, or conversely, choosing to live in abundance and Love and health. Because, after all, you can CHOOSE to be healthy by focusing on aligning your internal vibration with joy -- in other words, choosing to be happy and positive no matter, and then believing that you can be healthy.

Now, before you try to punch me, allow me to point out -- in case you don't know me very well -- that as recently as a couple of years ago, I was in chronic pain, severely depressed and sometimes suicidal, and running out of options after seeing scores of doctors. Today, I'm not only feeling better, I'm living more joyfully and abundantly than I ever could have imagined before I "got sick." The point is, if I can heal, so can you.

Still, it helps to have some support. We can't always be strong, and that's when we need someone or something to remind us that we are capable of doing anything.

That's what I wanted to share with you today: a website that I found called www.incrediblehealingjournals.com. Although I haven't dug too deeply into it yet (just discovered it about 20 minutes ago), the site features some pretty awesome stories about people overcoming conditions that are supposed to be chronic and incurable. In story after story, people tell how they got past conditions like asthma, autoimmune disorders, cancer, and so on.

Check it out. Read through some of the stories. If you're in a situation of less-than-ideal health, start to imagine yourself in a place of great health by putting yourself in the stories as the person who experiences the healing.

Remember, you potential for healing is limited only by your beliefs!

Much Love,

Matthew
