Download or read book Mind Body Healing Stories for Children written by Carl Brahe and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-04-27 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mind/body healing stories are a different kind of healing story. Most healing stories for children are written to help them through hard times and to gain concepts that help them cope with their lives through empathy with story characters. Mind/Body healing stories provide concepts and skills to teach children to directly interact with their own immune systems in a way that accelerates or improves healing outcomes, also using empathy for story characters. Healing and curing are different. You may cure a bacterial caused disease using antibiotics, but a broken bone must be healed. Healing is an ongoing process that may last a lifetime and bring healing far beyond the scope of the original intent. Curing is an action caused by outside resources, such as a doctor prescribing antibiotics. Healing relies on your own innate resources as well as outside resources. Your mind/body provides guidance for action that may be used over and over again for many kinds of healing throughout a lifetime. Mind/body healing stories provide a way for children to be actively involved in their own medical treatment or other healing activity. The more a person feels involved the more empowered they feel and the better the outcome. Feeling involved relieves some of the fear, and stress, that is natural when a person interacts with medical, or other healing, professionals. Stress inhibits natural healing function, empowerment increase it. Stories and rhyme are appropriate for children as young as 9-months-old. Each time a child listens to these stories fantasy and rhyme help her discover her own innate healing tools that will be useful through her entire life. These techniques can help in healing any disease or injury regardless of origin or type. These stories are helpful for healing physical, mental, emotional and spiritual challenges. In the late 1950's a small boy lay in a New England hospital bed while his family and medical team waited for him to die. An orange size tumor squeezed against his brain crowding his tiny skull. The tumor was inoperable. Conventional medicine offered no help at the time. Left alone late at night he played a game. He imagined white space ships flying in his head. They circled the tumor blasting away at it with beams of white light. As the tumor disappeared in his game it disappeared in his skull. The use of mind/body healing has grown since then to be utilized, in some form, in the treatment of virtually every known aliment. The NIH has established a branch dedicated to research in the field of mind/body medicine. While mind/body healing are relatively new in this country it has been used by other cultures for thousands of years. The Taoist Priests of China have compiled over 1200 volumes on the use of mind body healing in the last 2000 years
