I need one of those healing flashbacks.

I have been kind of absorbed into action films lately and have identified a commonality that I think could be beneficial to our society. I am talking about the 'Super Healing Flashback'. Call it a gimmick used by directors who don't want to show you how long it actually takes for a bullet hole or a stab wound to heal. Call it whatever you want. I'm gonna call it an idea that has reached it's prime. With the recent difficulties we Americans are having with health care, with it becoming so economically unavailable, we have to start looking to alternate health sources. the Super Healing Flashback works, you just have to know how to do it properly. Today I am going to tell you the secret Hollywood and the medical industry, don't want you to know.
The only things you need to perform the flashback are, yourself, of course, a dark or poorly lit corner to lean into and a traumatic memory that you can look back at. Now the setting does help you heal so, dirty your face up a bit if you can and if you aren't sweating from your pain, by all means, dab some water on your face to simulate sweat. Next, lean against the wall and try to look at the part of your body that is effected by your illness or injury, you may need to use a mirror for this and for the sake of ambiance, try to use a shard of a pre-broken mirror. Now cover the painful area with your hand, grit your teeth and suck air through them and slowly slide down to a sitting position, whimper a little bit and cringe. You are ready, at this point, for the flash back. Think about the tragedy you have set aside for this particular occasion and allow it to come to you, montages are okay but for best results a simple strobe effect is the way to go. After only one, maybe two minutes, you will feel the healing pass over you, your bleeding, the pain, the inoperable cancer, they all will have gone away and you can hop up and continue on with your day. A warning for you though, when you get up, you may feel the need for revenge, this is normal and will pass. This is a daring new way to cure the sick and infirmed and you can do it yourself. Don't be fooled by the doctors that try to tell you that, you need a medically approved corner, or you must use broken mirror parts that come from some expensive broken mirror distribution company. You can do this yourself, in your own basement or back alley. You have been lied to enough, now let the healing begin.
This exercise is not meant to be done while holding firearms or explosives of any kind, the object here is to get healthy and not to go blow away the guy who ran over your cat when you were ten.
