You Made Your Body Sick, Now Make It Well... Here's How
Regaining Health:
Disease is a condition of Dis-ease within the body. A vast and complete system such as the human body, that normally operates mostly on instinct has developed some sort of wrench in the works. A mysterious invader has entered the body, or perhaps a system no longer operates in the fashion that it used too.
In times of health we take for granted the infinite natural processes of the body and mind that operate seemingly without any control on our part. It is a process that is just taken for granted as the sun rises each morning and the tide reverses direction each day. When contemplated, this concept is quite mysterious and truly beyond comprehension.
Each white blood cell knows its own purpose in life and fulfills this purpose without being told what to do by the host. A scratch on the arm is only temporary as new tissue is formed and in time will be as good as new. Blood knows when to clot to stop the loss of blood. The digestive tract digests food extracting all nutrition and expelling the waste in a process that was surrendered by your conscious mind after you finished eating it. Skin is constantly renewed and replaced by cells that have served their life cycle and now offer protection by becoming a part of the largest human organ.
These processes are truly magical, in that they take place of seemingly their own accord. Millions of actions, reactions, interactions taking place in any one moment within the human body. Each cell being part of a much larger system as the nervous system, the lymphatic system, muscles, blood and veins. These systems being part of a much larger system called the body.
The body is also a system working with other systems that create a vehicle of systems that allow human interaction with the physical plane; the mind, the subconscious, the emotional body, the spiritual body, etc. These elements blend together to create a tapestry known as the human being. It would not be rational to assume that this pattern ceases at this point simply because our verifiable evidence does, but that it in fact continues further with all souls being a system that fits into yet another larger system, and so on.
Atoms create molecules, as molecules create minerals, as minerals create planets, as planets create solar systems, as solar systems create galaxy’s, as galaxy’s create infinity. Atoms are of course not the beginning of this cycle as scientists have realized that atoms are simply energy particles that are actually intangible. These particles of energy creating the atom are separated by relative distances not unlike planets of the solar system. The planets of the solar system are separated not unlike molecules.
It seems everything about life is part of a pattern, both lower and higher. The human being, being a pattern of its self, is snuggled somewhere in-between all these other systems and tends to take pride on being the only system that has any consciousness. Yet it would not seem logical to assume that in the whole of the universe with an infinite number of systems that we are the only one, which is aware of its self or at least possesses some type of instinctive awareness.
Every system affects other systems both above and below, on levels not reserved to the physical alone. The moon affects billions of water molecules as it swings around the earth, pushing and pulling the tide. The sun warms and feeds the life force to the planet earth. The earths own rotation affects weather and places the polar caps at their respective ends.
The earth’s weather system affects all creatures on the earth, providing water or drought. As we have learned, we humans have far too much affect on our own planet earth. We can move the earth, the water; we can affect entire eco-systems.
Our bodies can be affected by many things that are obvious. Our bodies are affected by many things that are not obvious as well. As the moon passes between the earth and the sun casting shadows on hemispheres, so do we cast shadows on our own cellular systems with our thoughts and emotions. Study after study has shown that attitude affects the body in numerous ways. Mere thought affects the immune system accordingly, by the intent or feeling. The thought of sucking the juice from a lemon, fills the mouth with saliva. Watching someone consume various parts of rotten meat from a reality television show makes the bodies gag reflex respond. A chronic worrier develops digestion and sleep disorders. A low self esteem may be the culprit behind obesity in someone. A lifetime spent harboring guilt or hatred could manifest in the body in numerous ways. In fact any non-harmonious emotions that are sustained may become evident within the body as disease.
Sometimes, people are born with disease before even having a chance to cast an evil spell on the natural occurring processes of the body. In fact, some disease has originated from a source that would be from God to some, as a valuable life lesson in a pattern of reincarnation to another, and just the luck of the draw to another. As past events as and circumstances have shaped the present, this is also the point of power from which we can shape the future. Regardless of the source of disease, the disharmony that exists can be affected and even reversed. There exist countless “miracle cases” that have no medical explanation for recovery.
Medical knowledge is surely an essential element in recovery from disease. This science is best left to the PhD’s and requires no validation from me. However, a doctors approach to medicine and health is from a purely physical viewpoint, a complicated science which is really beyond the scope of the average person unless he has 7 to 12 years to spend in college.
One tool that the doctor cannot posses is the mental state of his patient. A valuable tool that can only be controlled by self. A person who is diagnosed with disease immediately suffers from the blow of any negative news. They are informed of what they have, how it works, and what can or cannot be done about it. But only, in terms of science.
Mind is the builder, spirit is the life, the physical is the result - Edgar Cayce
Physician heal thy self - bible
Regardless of a persons faith or religion, every person has at their disposal a magical, yet very real power that only requires understanding and belief. If you believe in a fundamental Christian God, then you must believe that it is God that created your ability to heal yourself. If you believe that God is the sum total of all things yet more than the sum of his parts, or if you or agnostic, you simply believe that forces exist all around us that are not perceived by the physical senses. There are physical as well as spiritual laws of nature, principles that exist for everyone regardless of their theology.
If you look into the sun, you may become blind. If you lay in the sun to long, you will become burned. If you take a deep breath under water, you may not like the result. If you dwell on negative things you will become depressed.
Among the countless outward things that you may influence, the inner systems are just as valid and real. It is in understanding that everything is intertwined with everything else that the possibility exists for cause and effect within the human body. Basically all things are simply different forms of energy acting through forces of attraction and repulsion. Not reserved for only physical properties and elements, but even thought as energy interacts with a world full of thought-energy. In its simplest terms, a pessimist finds that life really is a negative place chock full of bad luck and accidents. An optimist finds that life validates his views of a carefree life full of opportunity. In fact, everyone who has a belief of any kind will find that life is consistently validating what is believed in spite of everyone else who maintains the opposite belief.
I would ask you to write down 10 things that you know to be true about the world. When you have finished, I can show you 10 things that you BELIEVE to be true about the world. These facts may be contradictive to any number of other people who believe something different. The world will validate what you believe. It seems the dynamics of thought energy are for the most part influenced by belief and desire. In fact, it may be that all physical experience is a future manifestation of thought-energy.
With regards to health, an understanding that all bodily functions are self functioning and healthy while the mental attitude is such that it does not stand in the way of the natural harmonious rhythms, then health is the natural consequence.
The proper mental attitude takes a beating from all sides. On the one hand, harboring negative attitude/attitudes affects the body over time, thereby validating the attitude or belief. Hearing bad news; that of illness, knocks the wind right out of you, and makes one feel victimized. As one feels victimized, in any circumstance, one is a victim. Bad things happen to good people. - That too is a belief. When the attitude is reversed, into an empowering force of belief that thought does influence the body, then there is no longer a victim. Now you have a force to be reckoned with. The body no longer feels powerless to mysterious forces of the universe - which by the way the mind absolutely believes is a mysterious, ethereal, unseen force affecting the body when it believes in illness. Why then is it so hard to believe the unseen ethereal forces of thought can have the reverse affect as well?
The proper attitude is a process, that begins with the casting away of the victim identity and recharging the body with the right thoughts. A process of breaking the habit of habitually searching for evidence, that validates the illness; Such as a new pain here, a discoloration there, an x-ray, whatever. Life will validate what you want to believe!
The power to influence and change the future is always and only in each now moment. If that moment is spent in mentally reviewing past “bad news” , searching the internet for statistics on survival, feeling sorry for self, or adding up all the validations that prove you are sick, then you have forfeited a now moment that could have been a pivotal point in your life. This process only validates that you are a victim. Belief will lead you through the whole thing and find all the evidence that you desire, thereby further increasing your belief towards a negative outcome.
In the beginning of altering the belief system, the proper mental attitude is held, in spite of what is observed. Some time will have to pass before events catch up to the new thought process. What is important to remember is that an event noticed that is in alignment with the victim mentality, is allowed to pass right on by. For it is not the new evidence or event that is nearly as important as the “now-moment” in which you are in the right frame of mind. The point of power is in the now-moment. Each and every now-moment.
As you steer the mind into positive frameworks, the evidence will follow. It’s simply a natural law of the universe.
“faith the size of a mustard seed will move a mountain”
Faith is belief, true belief. In the beginning of altering the attitude you speak the words in your mind, or picture the events, feeling as if you are lying to yourself. That’s ok. Because a consistent barrage of this, will began to affect the subconscious mind AND events will began to validate the positive attitude, which then gives a giant punch to your new belief, that of health. First, only a snowball rolling down hill, gaining strength and momentum of its own accord turning into a giant snow ball.
Every thought that enters the mind that is not in harmony with health, should be allowed to pass right on by. “I’m having more pain here than usual” , well tell your doctor when you see him, but for now replace that thought with “ I’m sending my body loving thoughts, healing thoughts, and I am feeling pains of regeneration”. You replace negative thoughts with a positive twist. You do this, over and over. If an area of your body is affected with disease, think of someone you love so much and feel that feeling. Bring that feeling to the area that is affected. Send that area love. This is one of the most powerful things you can do. You can feel it. It vibrates, it feels like energy, it feels light, active even hot. Loving thoughts have a wonderful effect on your entire body. Even more so when concentrated to a local area. Sound like child’s play? Sure it does! Kids naturally know how to use their imagination, until we teach it out of them. The imagination sets off a whole train of events in the same way as the mouth waters at the thought of sucking that lemon. White blood cells get a boost, as if they are fired up from a pep rally. Processes adjust themselves as necessary. The body will respond to loving thoughts like your very best friend, your dog.
Some people believe that only humans have a soul, even a consciousness. Personally I believe that anything that is alive and renewing has some form of consciousness or awareness on some level. To me, that is the driving force of life. Why does a plant grow? Why do all animals and plants adapt to their environment to survive? How do all species evolve over thousands of years into a better species? Random genetics? Or is there an underlying force, that of life that we all have, that survives it all?
Human cells will respond to emotions and thoughts. They will become ill, and they will become well. It is your job to direct them in the harmonious way that is natures way. Here is an exercise to get everyone on the same page.
As the primary consciousness occupying your body, you are as the general of the army. The army includes your cells, your bones, your organs, your blood, your thoughts, your hair, your muscles, and don’t forget your heart. These are the guys who work for you, they are your army, your team; a part of you. Everything about you, affects them. If you are sad, they are sad. If you are scared, they are scared. If you are strong and empowered, then they are strong and empowered.
It is time to have a talk with your army and get things right. You are starting the most important battle of your life and you don’t want there to be any miscommunication. First, you get a notebook and write down as the heading, “to my cells, blood, muscles, bones, hair, etc. “ Add as many things as you wish, think about it. You are connecting with yourself on a deeper lever than maybe you ever have. After the heading, began writing about how you feel about them, everything must be positive. Tell each one that the past is the past, now you love them more than life, for they are a part of you. Speak to them as you would want “God” to speak to you. Send them love, feel it!
Then tell them what the new plan is; your goals, your expectations. Tell them that you are changing your beliefs into that of health and well being. Realize that you are speaking to the most precious parts of yourself. Began to feel good, that these parts of you are yours. As you feel with your children. Be proud.
Then, find your positive attitude regardless of what you observe. Patiently understand that the transformation will take time. Perhaps only weeks or days, in some cases even hours. Understand that you will find what you earnestly seek. If you seek health, then health is what you will find.
Liken your body to that of a computer. You program your computer, and the output is a direct result of that programming. Program your computer with data that sends loving thoughts of health and positive expectations, replacing fear and doubt. Remember cells can react instantly to your thoughts and emotional feeling. Sustained loving and positive thoughts / feelings / and expectations are very powerful. Never allow a now-moment to be sacrificed with that of fear or doubt. You are the programmer. Begin programming now !
This is a general format and you may change it into whatever best suits you to connect with all these parts of yourself. Soon after this, began a quite meditation and imagine that your body is receiving light from the heavens and it is shooting out of your eyes and fingertips and toes. Think of the illness or area affected and imagine that it is being burned with the white healing light that is removing all illness and promoting healing.
Yes, this is a mental fantasy; yet a fantasy that is based on dynamic energies that are invoked with the use of imagination. This is one of the most powerful tools you can posses beyond scientific or herbal remedies. This is naturally our first line of defense and offence, in healing our bodies. And the moment is now!
