Disease, and inevitably, death, is a reality that preoccupies many of us, at least in terms of trying to put it off for as long as possible. The good news is, if you make the right lifestyle choices, you may not have to worry about facing either for a very long time, barring accidents like getting in the way of a spinning helicopter blade, or engaging in self destructive behavior.
This site is loaded with thousands of pages that can educate you about simple inexpensive lifestyle choices that will allow you to avoid dangerous medications so you can live as long as you were designed to with as much function, energy and vitality as you can possibly achieve.
Whether you believe that you are a victim of your gene pool, or master of your own life; whether you believe this existence is only a transition to the next level, or that once you die there is “nothing,” doesn‘t change the inevitable outcome of course, but it does change your frames of reference when contemplating disease and death.
The Time to Change Your Frame of Reference is NOW
One of the primary reasons behind the enduring rift between conventional medical science and natural healing techniques is the contrasting nature of their basic philosophies about what disease is.
Conventional medicine tends to view organisms as machines, made of various parts that are either functioning properly or have somehow failed.
Most who practice natural medicine, however, strongly believe that there is a vitalizing force that activates your body. Some refer to this as your soul, psyche, spirit, or life force. This pervasive divine intelligence guides every cell in your body toward health and healing, as long as you cooperate.
Your body was designed to move toward health, not toward disease.
Unfortunately, contemporary society throws many barriers in your way with its pervasive fraud, deception and toxic influences.
Several doctors and scientists, including Bruce Lipton, PhD., Dr. Geerd Hamer, and Dr. David Holt, are finally bringing these concepts out into the open, with plenty of scientific proof to back their claims; that you are not a victim of your genes or of nefarious “bugs.” That your mind in fact controls your genetic expression, which means you are in the driver’s seat; you are your own creator, and your ability to heal is ever present, provided your body’s natural functions are not thwarted by toxic substances, such as synthetic pharmaceutical drugs.
Did you know that the death rate actually decreases when doctors go on strike? How could that be? How could you heal better without medical intervention?
Well, according to Dr. Geerd Hamer’s German New Medicine, the signs and symptoms that conventional medicine views as “disease,” are in fact signs of a HEALING CRISIS; once it’s over, you’re well on your way to be fully cured and good as new. Unfortunately, conventional medicine views this healing cycle as something to be eradicated, and put you on invasive treatments, which either delays or stops your natural healing altogether…
The Art of Healing; “Allowing Health,” Not “Fighting Disease”
With that in mind, is it any wonder that up to 80 percent of people actually end up dying in a hospital? And, if you read Dr. Gary Null‘s excellent piece "Death by Medicine" you will discover that adverse reactions from prescription drugs are responsible for nearly three-quarters of a million avoidable deaths EVERY YEAR in the United States alone.
We no longer die of old age. We die from inappropriate medical interventions that derail our bodies’ natural healing capacity.
All the more reason to seek out better, safer solutions to treat your health problems rather than relying on dangerous over-the-counter or prescription medications. Nearly the entire modern health care system is responsible for allowing countless unnecessary drugs to be prescribed, which leads directly to these prescription drug fatalities.
The fact is, prescription and over-the-counter drugs, designed to “fight disease,” kill more people every year than the combined deaths of all those who die from the use of every illegal drug in existence. So although a distinction is made between legal prescription drugs and illegal drugs used for recreational purposes there really isn‘t much difference is there?
What many people do not realize is that it is possible to maintain total health by avoiding unnecessary drugs and by gaining a comprehensive, clear and researched understanding of good nutrition and proper lifestyle choices, and by allowing healing, including the healing crisis, to take place without panicking.
Because it’s not a matter of IF you’re going to die. It’s a matter of HOW. For me, dying quietly and painlessly in old age would be a “good death,” far preferred over dying from toxic poisoning, due to corporate and governmental greed and immorality.
