If we had the knowledge and absolute control of our brains, we could defeat disease. But fuck me, we're in the dark ages of medicine given what we know vs. what's unknown. We might never be able to control our physiology that finely.

structural damage in the body wont go away by thinking it away.

Diseases based on dyregulations and problematic pathways might be helped if we manage to control the ANS but the ANS is by definition not capable of being controlled by thoughts.
