Erickson treated a couple of patients with an affective (wholly psychological) writing disorder. Neither could write but could do any number of other complex hand tasks like using tools or knitting. He was unable to treat one of the patients, but with the other, he used hypnosis to “transfer” the handicap to the other non writing hand. This finally enabled this patient to resume writing successfully, but with the effect that the other hand would go numb, every time they went to write something. So while this is difficult to label a “healing,” it is a creative workaround to the problem and was a great help to the patient. What was really happening here, why was Erickson successful with one, but not the other patient, and what is truly needed to heal such disorders?

Erickson mentioned a little-known phenomenon to folks who don’t work in extremely loud industrial settings. For old-timers in these settings, it is not uncommon for two acclimated workers to be able to carry on a “normal” conversation, at normal volume levels, when outsiders can’t hear each other even when shouting in close proximity. How is this even possible? This appears to be a phenomenon almost akin to telepathy. It certainly seems to defy our understanding of hearing biology. What can Creator tell us?
