751. Self-Induced Healing - the pulse of You Just Have To Laugh.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn's experience with self-induced healing refers to his recovery from near-fatal testicular cancer in the 1950s, which he attributed to both spiritual conversion and a potential folk remedy. While in the Soviet Gulag, he experienced a profound inner transformation, later documenting the concept of "self-induced healing" in his novel Cancer Ward. Solzhenitsyn stated that his illness and prison experiences led him to a "deep awareness of God" and a spiritual cleansing, which he viewed as crucial to his recovery. He discovered the psychological and spiritual aspects of experiencing spontaneous or "self-induced" remissions of tumors. You Just Have to Laugh replaces the chronic thinking of sadness and fear to joy and happiness - using humor, laughing music, faith and helping others.
