a classic is what happened to andrew weil, some of you may know him hes author of the natural mind, and many health books. LSD cured his allergies. He claims to have had many allergies especially to cats, then during his LSD trip a cat approached him very closely and he displayed no symptoms of an allergic reaction and never has since. in the psychedelics encyclopedia they mention a few cases, one where a woman, after participating in an LSD research, came back and told the investigators that her headache was gone.. " what headache?" they asked, " oh the headache ive had for the past 10(?) years" (something like that) another case i think it mentioned was somebody after taking LSD being cured of a skin disease they had had, i cant remember too well the details. I have a friend who in the summer got water deep in his left ear after bathing by a waterfall and had it sort of clogged for a long time and he couldnt hear very well through that ear. months later he took 2ci for the first time and during the trip his left ear opened up and was fixed, he could hear again. in shamans drum, i read about a man who had cancer of the colon i think, the doctors gave him less than six months or so to live, but after taking ayahuasca many times in the shamanic setting his body began to naturally control the growth of the cancer. . it can be easy to understand how a psychedelic drug can help you fix some psychologial or emotional problems but you have to take more speculative leaps to understand it when psychedelics spontaneously fix something in your body thats been wrong for awhile. my opinion is that everyones body naturally wants to be healthy, but sometimes certain pathways get mixed or confused or become inactive or maybe some genes for healing have been turned off. and somehow or other psychedelics may work in opening up, or activating those areas, somehow bringing it all to the light so that the immune system can understand what is really going on and now know how to go about fixing it. the indigenous shamanic models suggests that certain physical ailments maybe spiritual or magical in orgin, taking psychedelics allows people to travel through magic/spirit realms and literally extract magical poisons, retrieve lost souls, or summon spirits to do healing. for them healing of the body with the help of plant hallucinogens is not rare at all, many times it is the only way to save a persons life from illness. anybody have any stories of spontaneous healing of the body from psychedelics? they are rare, but they do occur.
