==Healing and modern vitalism==

==Healing and modern vitalism==

A distinction can be drawn between the "classical [[vitalism]]" and a "modern vitalism" that can be accommodated by conventional biomedical science and the body's ability to heal itself. This modern vitalism is best described by the phrase ''[[vis medicatrix naturae]]'' – the healing power of nature. Nature, or more specifically, the body's natural healing mechanisms, is the principal mechanism by which any healing process occurs. Without these natural mechanisms (our immune system, our wound healing capacity, and countless other regulatory and corrective systems), life itself is barely possible. Some healing practices have taken to naming these natural mechanisms. [[Chiropractic]] often uses the term innate intelligence to describe the body's inborn ability to heal itself.[http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?artid=1185558 available online]

==Healing in games==

==Healing in games==

Other forms of healing in games exist, and the aforementioned example seems to apply only to a specific genre. Health packs, or First Aid packs are used more generally in games to heal characters. Health packs can come in many different forms- syringes, icons or briefcases. Games differ in the way in which health is added to the character: some games require only the character to walk over a health icon to heal; other games require the character to physically administer the health pack contents to themselves (this is usually achieved by choosing a health pack from an [[inventory]] and selecting it).

Many features of [[human]] life afford abundant [[evidence]] that the [[phenomenon]] of [[mortal]] [[existence]] was intelligently planned, that organic [[evolution]] is not a mere [[cosmic]] accident. When a living cell is injured, it possesses the ability to elaborate certain [[chemical]] substances which are empowered so to stimulate and activate the neighboring normal cells that they immediately begin the secretion of certain substances which facilitate healing [[process]]es in the wound; and at the same time these normal and uninjured cells begin to proliferate--they actually start to work creating new cells to replace any fellow cells which may have been destroyed by the accident. This chemical [[action]] and reaction concerned in wound healing and cell reproduction represents the choice of the [[Life Carriers]] of a [[formula]] embracing over one hundred thousand phases and features of possible chemical reactions and biologic repercussions. More than half a million specific [[experiment]]s were made by the Life Carriers in their laboratories before they finally settled upon this formula for the [[Urantia]] life experiment. When Urantia scientists know more of these healing chemicals, they will become more efficient in the treatment of injuries, and indirectly they will know more about controlling certain serious diseases.[http://urantia.org/cgi-bin/webglimpse/mfs/usr/local/www/data/papers?link=http://mercy.urantia.org/papers/paper65.html&file=/usr/local/www/data/papers/paper65.html&line=100#mfs]
