Awaken the Inner Doctor: Norman Cousins, Laughter Therapy & Healing from Within

Each patient carries his own doctor inside him. They come to us not knowing the truth. We as doctors are at our best, when we give the doctor who resides within in each patient a chance to heal him.

This was a controversial theory propounded by Norman Cousin and proved by himself on his own body.

Later lot of research was done in USA and this theory was proved right. But most of the mainstream medicine does not want this theory to go mainstream... Wonder why?

Norman Cousins was given a small chance of recovery with a diagnosis of Collagen vascular disease and Ankylosing spondylitis. But Norman Cousin refused to accept the poor prognosis. And started his self treatment with massive doses of Vit-C and laughter therapy and yes, Kindness therapy. He said to heal the body, the mind needs to be healed and the Inner doctor needs to be in charge.

And loo, he was healed. And he documented it in his best seller book, Anatomy of a Illness. And research proved him right.

And this was the origin of Laughter therapy famous all over the world. Kindness therapy became the basis of many wellness programs all over the world.

True, most doctors don't believe this and don't want this research to go mainstream.

Live from inside, out. Allow the true healer inside each one of us to truly heal us. Haven't you heard the old saying, " doctors heal, But God cures".
