Psychosoma – A Computer-Assisted Secular Method of Psychosomatic Healing
A computer game that may assist in the eradication of diseases and the obliteration of some!
Given that I have thrown this idea out into the world in the hope that it will reach critical mass, it will probably now have to come from some public sector boffins rather than some business engine.

Psychosoma is an adventure that takes places inside the human body. Not just any human body but the body of the player. Its primary purpose is to assist the player in the healing and repair of any mechanical damage or disease. This is done by creating a reproduction of a part of a brain or body from an actual cat/bio scan which maps the area local to the disease or damage and provides a complete cross-section 3d photograph. That image is then uploaded onto a computer or onto a platform like The Sony PS3 and when integrated with the software, once again becomes a fully fluid representation of the body at the moment of scanning, complete with injury and/or disease.
There are many cases where psychosomatic input can have a significant, if not, profound effects in assisting the eradication of something like a tumor or the time and effectiveness of injury repair through conventional means.

In such cases, however, it is helpful if the person is able to make massive lifestyle changes, diet, environment or more rarely, a massive a paradigm shift. Read more…
