Whole Body Healing
By
Paula Muran
In the western medicine world we have lost touch with the basic
concept of true healing. We substitute a band-aid for a cure and
wonder why we don't feel better. People get ill for many reasons
and each diseased state tells us that we are ignoring some part
of self and change is necessary. While many factors contribute
to healing, and it happens on many levels, all require attention
throughout the entire healing practice – ignoring the emotional
and mental bodies would not provide adequate and long-term good
health.
We can no longer look at one body part and heal it without incorporating
other systems. For example if our toenails are infected with fungus
it is ineffective to just treat the tips of our toes, rather we
must look at the blood and spleen along with eating habits for
the final cure. Physical symptoms like headaches, swollen glands,
sneezing and colds including more serious diseases like cancer
communicate that there is a disturbance in the emotional body.
Emotional traumas like fear, guilt, doubt and worry stop the normal
flow of energy and over the course of time they cause unexplained
and crippling diseases that end up controlling us.
The physical body falls apart because we fall apart emotionally.
When we don't care for the 'whole self' the physical
body simply mirrors those effects. Over the course of a lifetime
negative emotions take their toll. Repressed anger diminishes
the liver. Hopelessness and despair play havoc with the
gall bladder. Long-standing negative emotional beliefs deteriorate
the entire physical being. Mental patterns like worry and a constant
string of looping words weaken and exhaust the entire physical
body. For true and long lasting healing to occur we must look
at all the systems: emotional, mental, physical and spiritual.
Recent scientific studies have shown that emotions sabotage everything
from simple success to kidney failure. As we unlock this stagnate
energy in the body we identify the root cause of many diseases.
We then begin to experience freedom from aches and pains, stiffness,
inflammations and gain clarity, better self-confidence and more
get-up and go.
Strengthening the physical body is the key to healing the other
bodies. Imagine how difficult it is when a cold and sore throat
take over - do you feel like seeking out the emotional patterns
that caused it? Or constant fatigue there would be little or no
energy to search for the negative patterns that are crippling
the body. Healthy nutrients that are easily digestible are necessary
to strengthen the physical body and rebuild.
I prefer liquids to tablets like Buried Treasures for minerals
and vitamins and Emergen-C with MSM for vitamin C. MSM is a natural
anti-inflammatory and it helps reduce any swelling in the intestinal
tract. I highly recommend Green- Magma and other green drinks
because they assimilate fast enough to see results.
Diet is the number one contributor to disease. Processed foods
are poison to the digestive tract. A good mix of vegetables, proteins,
and carbohydrates along with fruit is important to healing the
body. Remember to eat fruit first because it digests in the small
intestines. If at all possible eat organic food or foods grown
in community gardens or the backyard. Know where your fruits and
vegetables come from. The longer the travel time to the stomach
the less nutrient value the fruit or vegetables have.
Pesticides, coloring additives, parasites and other chemicals
in food cause sinus problems, allergies, constipation, diarrhea,
diverticulosis, malnutrition and hyper-type symptoms to occur.
Acid reflux disease and heartburn are common symptoms of improper
digestion causing an irritant in the stomach and upper digestive
tract. Candida, a friendly bacterium, oftentimes becomes a nuisance
growing wildly and causing organs and systems to literally shut
down. The most common foods that cause allergies are corn, wheat
and dairy. Making simple changes means a lot to the body.
Supplements: We are a pill-popping society and proud of
it. Supplementation is important because emotions, food, chemicals
and a hurried lifestyle play havoc on our digestive systems. An
overdose of natural supplements can also cause a list of new symptoms
to occur. If you are taking more than five different supplements
you are taking too many.
Water: Only 5% of the American population gets sufficient
water each day. Diet drinks, high corn-syrup drinks and
coffee do not count towards proper hydration. In fact many of
those drinks cause gastrointestinal inflammation, kidney and liver
problems. To properly hydrate we need to drink at least half of
our body weight in purified water per ounce each day.
Exercise: Lack of exercise is the number one killer today.
It stagnates energy causing the lymph system to back up and this
congestion causes an array of other problems. Daily walks, yoga,
and chi-kung are good exercise programs and are essential for
the whole body.
To turn disease around takes time and should include alternative
healing, organic diets, pure water, natural supplements and exercise.
Wellness of the whole body provides accurate good health for the
entire being.
