During my last acupuncture appointment, I remember lying on the table with acupuncture needles stuck from the crown of my head to the side of my heel, I began to think about my healing. I closed my eyes and inhaled and exhaled deeply and envisioned a uterus free from fibroids, the blood supply being taken from my fibroid, the scar tissue being made smooth and healthy fallopian tubes and ovaries. With all those positive thoughts of healing, I began to think about the affirmations that I have had as far as my healing is concerned and what my current mantra was , it simply stated,“ I love you fibroids, but it’s time for us to part.” Can someone please remind me as to what I love about my fibroids? How can I love something that has caused pain, anemia, and surgery? And returned? It’s kinda like saying that you love your ex, but it’s time for you guys to part. Keep in mind that this ex cheated on you, borrowed a large sum or money and never paid it back, and to top it off made out with your best friend. SO tell me again how can a mantra like that be successful in transforming your mind and ultimately aiding you in your HEALING. I began searching the crevices of my mind in search of something that could be a turning point in my healing and it came to me, I WILL MY FIBROIDS AWAY! That’s it, that my new mantra, the key phrase to help my mind focus on healing. Webster defines will as 1) expressing the future tense, 2) expressing inevitable events, 3) expressing a request, and 4) expressing facts about ability or capacity. The word will itself is powerful, it is the actual manifestation of healing. I will my Fibroids Away ….. WOW!!!The placebo effect has been research for years and the results from the “placebo effect” is amazing! Patients with pain, Parkinson’s or IBS took placebos and because the mind believed it was receiving something to aid in healing, the mind released endorphins, dopamine, and adequate relief, respectfully for each condition. It is believed that the placebo effect is a psychosocial context effect that indicates that different social stimuli such as mantras, words of affirmation, or even rituals may change the chemistry and circuitry of the patient’s brain. When we think positive thoughts, certain chemicals are being released into the body and vice versa when we think negative chemicals are being released into the body.
Intention does have physical effect, so WHY can’t the same approach occur with fibroids? With a different mindset and change in mantra, what is my new ritual? Most of the time my ritual consists of drinking dandelion tea and lying in bed, I place my hands over my uterus with several things in mind. I tell my uterus that I love her, ask for the release of any emotional strongholds from myself and ancestors and close with I WILL MY FIBROIDS AWAY… borrow this mantra if you must, it will change the way you think about healing and transform your mind.
