  • Visualize your recovery by turning worries into healing imagery.
  • Surround yourself in love of family and friends to feel calm before surgery.
  • Using healing statements, words spoken during surgery that can reduce the use of pain meds up to 50%.
  • Meeting an anesthesiologist to request the use of healing statements.
