Sometimes we all get ill.Then we usually go to see the doctor. Doctors know a lot about what makes us ill.They may give us some medicine to eat.And the medicine often makes us well again.

But sometimes the doctor’s medicine doesn’t work.A sick person does not get well.The pain(疼痛) will not go away.This happened to one man.He was in hospital, but he was not getting well. Then he found a new “doctor” inside himself. This doctor was his own sense of humor. He saw funny films.He read funny books.And something wonderful happened. Laughing took away his pain.Then he was able to sleep and rest.(1) His own happy feeling helped him to feel well again.And he told his story in a book.He said laughing was his best “medicine”.His doctor thought so, too.

Another man was ill, and he had a terrible pain in his back.The doctors could not stop it from hurting.So the man began to picture his pain. In his head he “drew” a picture of a dog. He imagined it as a real dog.And it was hurting him.Then the man talked softly(轻柔地) to the dog.He put his hand on the dog’s head.And he made friends with the dog.And his pain went away.

These stories may surprise you. But more and more people are getting well in this way.So visit the “doctor”inside your own head and you can keep happy and well.
