Do you believe it's possible? |
Sure. All of us change our bodies all the time with our thoughts. Depending on the thoughts, the changes may or may not be positive.
For many people, it is relatively easy enough to think thoughts that:
(a) raise your blood pressure;
(b) slow your heartbeat;
(c) cause an erection;
(d) make goosebumps appear on your skin
Etc etc. And if you google around, you'll find many more interesting examples of how thoughts affect the physical body. There is for instance a Harvard study which demonstrates how patients with broken bones or flesh wounds are hypnotised with "healing thoughts" heal much more rapidly than patients who aren't.
A variety of skin conditions are also well-known to be treatable with hypnosis eg eczema and psoriasis. There are also some studies about how visualisation of imaginary gym workouts will lead to increased bicep strength.
