Following on from my last entry, my question to you is what’s Your destination? Where are you going? Based on the results of your assessment from the Square of Life, lets look at your Health in your Life. Can you actually ascertain how to get to your destination instead of where you are now? What was your assessment? What scores did you give yourself?
Firstly, what’s your health like if you were to score it out of 10? Would you say that it’s an 8 out of 10, a 2 out of 10, a 5 out of 10? Give yourself some sort of mark, you don’t have to be perfect, but it’s a mark that enables you to be honest with yourself about where your health is right now.
Many people have come to accept that having colds and having the latest flu or any of those things is standard, is normal. We’ve come to accept that’s just the way it is. We’ve come to accept the cancer is a thing that exists in our world. Do you simply accept that getting sick is normal and all these different diseases are inevitable? We’ve come to accept a level of health that’s far less than we should, because human anatomy, cells are literally ageless. They just rust away from many different things but most of all they rust away from the way we think.
The way that we think about disease, in fact the word disease is the biggest clue to the major cause of disease of illness, of un-healthiness. It’s that we create a state of dis-ease. In ancient China they had a process or system of looking after their people. A doctor in those times would actually go from village to village and he would prescribe to people a way of life that would promote health. Then villagers would follow his or her direction, living according to those directions. If they got ill then he was made to pay large sums of restitution because of his prescription.
They had a better understanding of what health really is. It’s about equilibrium if you like. It’s not necessarily much about being perfect, it’s not so much about never being sick. It’s about recognising any physical symptoms, any physical disease is in fact a reflection of an upset or discord that abounds somewhere in our lives.
Tomorrow, the Louis Pasteur versus Antoine Bechamp story and why our society is at the mercy of the Big Pharmaceutical Companies…….
