The human body
is a remarkable biological system that can heal itself
and is genetically designed to achieve perfect health for
us. All that goes wrong is that we get in the way of this
natural process by not giving our body what it really needs. All disease is caused by some type of blockage or deficiency,
whether it is circulatory, lymphatic, digestive, nutritional,
elimination, or emotional. Getting well is just a matter of
stopping what we did to make us sick and eliminating the
blockage or deficiency.
The key to the
body's inner wisdom and the principle reason that the body can
heal itself is the genetic system. It can be thought of this
way....when your mother and father conceived you; they each gave
you a seed. The two seeds fused and you started to grow. The
growing process was controlled by the 46 chromosomes with their
approximately 30,000 genes. Of course these could produce you
only in the unique environment of the womb.
But the story
does not end there. You see, in almost every cell in your body
there are exact copies of those original seeds with their 46
chromosomes and 30,000 genes. And the genes in those cells of
yours are still working. Night and day, without ever stopping,
they work and work and work, rebuilding your cell structures
when they are damaged or worn out, manufacturing hormones,
immune system components, cellular enzymes and so forth. And
they still have the same goal they always have... to build you
exactly according to the original parental instructions in the
genes. This process accounts for the body's amazing capacity to
heal itself and to maintain its internal equilibrium and
harmony.
But in order for
all this to happen, your cells need to be provided regularly,
almost continuously, with fresh, adequate supplies of the right
building materials. When the genes specify selenium, as they
do for certain of the body's molecules, then only selenium will
do. No substitute or synthetic can do the job. So, if
your cells don't get selenium, you cannot be completely healthy,
and you won't have wellness.
This is true for
more than 50 essential nutrients, including zinc, chromium,
manganese, copper, iron, indium, many other minerals, and also
vitamins, amino acids, and the essential fatty acids. If all
of these are not in your diet, you are destined to have chronic
degenerative illness.
Our body is composed not only of
physical elements such as muscles, bones, nerves, arteries,
organs, glands, etc.; it also has a subtle energy system through
which 'life force energy' flows. Our physical body is alive
because of the 'life force energy' that is flowing though
it. This subtle energy system is composed of energy 'bodies'
which surround our physical body and assist us in processing our
thoughts and emotions. We also have energy meridians. These are
like rivers, or streams which carry our life force energy
throughout our physical body, to nourish us and assist in
balancing our body’s systems and functions.
One thing that disrupts and weakens
the flow of 'life force energy' is stress.
Stress to the body can be caused by poor nutrition but also by
conflicting thoughts and feelings that get lodged in one's
subtle energy system. These include fear, worry, doubt, anger,
anxiety, etc. Medical research has determined that continual stress can block the body's natural ability to repair,
regenerate and protect itself. The American Institute of
Stress estimates that 75%-95% of all visits to doctors
are the results of reaction to stress.
If you believe
that what you feel and think impacts your life as much as what
you eat or drink, then the Natural Healing information here will
be of great benefit. However, healing naturally doesn’t
provide the quick fix of an antibiotic and sometimes they
take longer to work. This is because natural remedies address
core problems, rather than mask symptoms or provide
temporary relief.
When people tell
me that it is too difficult to incorporate a healthy lifestyle
in this day and age, I ask them to consider how difficult
life will be when they become very ill. If you do have the
desire to explore the concept of natural healing, I know you
will enjoy the information you find here.
