I have always been fascinated by the power of thought, and how it possibly relates to our bodies, others, and the real world environment. I'm not sure if you guys are aware of this, but there have been hundreds, if not thousands of experiments done by respected universities and researchers involving the power of thought, and how it influences reality. Many cultures use their own terms for it's use. From meditation, to actual religious prayer, it doesn't matter what we call it, it is all essentially the same thing. It is directed thought (or intention) of either positive or negative thought either towards ourselves, others, or other physical matter (standing there cussing at your car, screaming "WHY WON'T YOU START" - Is also intention)
The general principle is this: If everything (literally everything) originally all came from one extremely small central point of matter (the singularity referred to right before the big bang), then everything is made up of the exact same thing due to a shared point of origin. Me, you, blue whales, earth, mars, every star, every planet, every galaxy, every single piece of everything including things we don't understand, all came from one central point smaller than a Quark, exploded in one unimaginable blast of energy and eventually became what we have now.
That has to be accepted (regardless of personal religious views, remember those are dogmatic interpretations of reality, nothing is wrong or right, it's all just interpretation) in order to continue, to illustrate the next principle.
Everything is connected. More and more, with every passing day/week/month/year, more and more experiments are done to verify a principle (no longer a theory) called Quantum Entanglement. I will explain this quickly from various easy sources (the actual principle and processes used to demonstrate this are so utterly complex, even Einstein didn't want to have anything to do with it. He described it as "Spooky action at a distance").
Here are some short animated film clips from one of my all time favorite movies on the subject (What The *&(*% Do We Know - Down the Rabbit Hole) to illustrate Entanglement:

And now the infamous double slit experiment, which brings me more to my point...Which is reality is influenced via observation/our consciousness, because everything is connected:

If you find this fascinating like I do, a nice cache of entertaining explanations regarding this subject, condensed into film, are the movies "What The &^%^% Do We Know", and "What The ^$&^( Do We Know - Down The Rabbit Hole". It's loaded with some of the top researchers in this area, describing their brain melting experiments and results. Including my two favorites, Professor Dean Radin from Princeton, and Lynne McTaggart. Radin and McTaggart have several award winning books on the subject:

Also, if you have the patience, you can watch the scattered full movie of What The Bleep on youtube broken up into many parts. Or just rent it at blockbuster.
Also, as I stated before (everything is connected), we (humans) aren't the only things "connected". As far back as the 60's and 70's there was radical work being done with plants, previously unknown communications between plants, and even bacteria. Since Cleve Baxter's work, there have been countless other experiments showing the same things:

One of the most amazing Coast To Coast shows I have ever listened to (It's one of only a very few in my classic Coast To Coast folder). This is Cleve Baxter talking to George Noory on Coast To Coast. He also discusses Lynne Mctaggart and others work into hidden communication between organisms, it's utterly amazing, and it's in several multi-parts on youtube, and you can listen to the whole thing:

Well if intention works one way, in a positive manner to influence cells, our bodies, and bacteria...Could it be used in reverse to harm things that are harmful to us? Apparently, yes (with citations following):
<a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.williamjames.com/Science/PK.htm

</a>
"In a study following up on his earlier finding correlating students' intentions with bacterial growth, Carroll B. Nash conducted another study looking at mutation rates. He put suspensions of E. coli into nine tubes, in a 3x3 arrangement, for each of 52 subjects. He randomly designated one set for rapid mutation into another strain, one set for inhibition of mutation rate, and one set for control. He arranged that the subjects would know the instructions but the student experimenters would be blind. The rapid mutation tubes showed significantly more growth than the inhibition tubes. The promotion tubes had nonsignificantly more growth than the controls; the inhibition tubes had significantly less."

"Determined whether the growth of the bacterium Escherichia coli can be psychokinetically accelerated and decelerated during a 24-hr period with Ss not known to be psychically gifted. Each of 60 college students was tested in a single run consisting of a set of 3 tubes of bacterial culture to be growth-promoted, a set of 3 to be growth-inhibited, and a set of 3 to serve as controls. Findings indicate that the growth was greater in the promoted tubes than in either the controls or the inhibited tubes. Post hoc analyses showed that the intersubject variance in growth was (1) greater between the 3 treatments than within them and (2) greater in both the promoted and the inhibited tubes than in the controls. Results indicate that bacterial growth was psychokinetically accelerated in some of the tubes intended for growth promotion and psychokinetically retarded in some of the tubes intended for growth inhibition. (9 ref)"
Those are just 2 or 3 experiments done to illustrate how focused thought can decrease, or increase bacterial count in a controlled group setting.
So why did I post all this? Why did I spend nearly an hour and a half of my time to post all this? How does it relate to CF? Why should you care? My point in all of this, is that everything is interconnected. If it is medically accepted that thought/emotions can manifest within ourselves physically, either negatively or positively, why is it so hard to accept that (with tons of studies to back it up) that we need to take more responsibility with our thoughts and emotions regarding ourselves and others? Continued levels of negative stress increases blood pressure, floods the body with harmful stressor chemicals, leads to heart disease, and some suspect can manifest cancers. Positive thought/emotions/laughter release healthy chemicals into our bodies, regulate blood pressure, and lead to a very positive state of well being.
Why aren't we, as chronic suffering patients, more commonly taught about such principles as focused intentional thought, how our mood and our mood towards others is so important? Why was I never told about previous work involving regulation of bacterial growth via intention? Just imagine how much better we could feel as CF patients, and humans if we realize there is zero difference between us, and everything around us. We are all inclusive to one another.
The most immediate benefit for us (CF's) would be further work into bacterial regulation via intention, but that is just the tip of the iceberg here.
I hope you enjoyed this compilation I spent time on. I find this subject fascinating, and if applied properly to the whole of the human race, and taken to heart, our problems would fully go away, because we aren't "me", "her", or "them"...We are "us"...We are "everything".
