Soon

I have a couple of topics to post soon. I wrote one up, but blogger lost the last half of what I typed, so I will have to write it again, later. But for now, I don't feel like spending the time again and will have this as it's place holder. Also, this post will end up getting deleted but while it is up I wanted to declare that I will not be making any apologies about the fact that I haven't posted in such a long time because I find it annoying when others do.

I didn't feel like deleting this, but I finally published the post you've all been waiting so many years for (although incomplete). - edited June-13- 2019

I decided to google this and turned up with Pavlov's dog, meaning the physical reaction of sweating is my body's conditioned response to spicy food. And the bell in this case would be just seeing the spices applied to the food, or even just thinking about really spicy food. I have known other reactions to occur based on the anticipation of something that might happen, for instance, a person who is really ticklish might cringe and burst out laughing when someone only threatens to tickle them. So, that got me thinking about other physical reactions that could be provoked and the common movie concept that meditation can improve healing. I'm sure there are a number of cultures, religions and spiritual practices that have to do with this. And, we all know, from scientific research, that rest and sleep can have great restorative powers for the body. But, this is my question:

I don't know what my question was, this was saved as a draft May 21st of 2015, and I never finished the post. Still, sounds intriguing, right?
