Hi ldr's i believe one could heal himself using altered states of consciousness be it hypnosis , lucid dreaming or meditation . Recently hypnosis have been used in healing different kind of diseases with varying success, in the process one variable in particular proved to be the most important in the outcome of healing which is the ability of the hypnotized subject to go deeper and the skill of the hypnotherapist to do so. The theory is that while dreaming the dreamer is already in a very deep state similar if not better than the state reached by hypnosis , suggesting that healing is more likely to occur using a lucid dream than hypnosis (which as we said has been proved to be effective in many occasions ) am 22 and suffering from stage 2 kidney failure and will try to heal it using lucid dreaming with a strong believe it would and should work so wish me like and ill post all my healing lucid dreams in this thread along with any effects i notice on my kidney condition .
