These rituals, could however be interpreted to work on the level of pure suggestion. If a woman has once had a stillborn child, with her next pregnancy she would probably be very nervous. Her apprehension on a psychological level would lead to imbalance in the functioning of her nervous system, to disruption of her metabolism. Which, in turn, would have a bad effect on the fetus. Encouraged by Baba Vanga’s “magic” the woman would accept the new pregnancy calmly and confidently, and this would be critical for the normal development of the pregnancy and for the birth.
In my opinion, in case (9) the mechanism is one of pure suggestion and this is supported by the fact that ”the man was instantly healed” . Probably, this man was worried. If the incident happened once, he started worrying that it could happen always and it did start happening due to his negative auto-suggestion. Baba Vanga managed to break that vicious circle by distracting the man’s attention with the ritual actions she asked him to complete and especially, by reassuring him that this would help.
Yes, Baba Vanga was indeed a good psychologist, as many of those, who knew her well, would say!
