A turn-around in medicine
has
been occurring over the last ten or more years - and that is: People are
taking a stance when it comes to their own bodies and investigating alternative
forms of healing, many proven over hundreds of years and still prevalent in Europe. Many are not
taking at face value the advice of Medical Doctors, but are seeking additional and other
opinions about their health. The use of complementary care in the United States has grown in recent
years. A recent study by Stanford University showed that 69 percent of respondents said they
had used such therapies (chiropractic, massage, acupuncture, herbal and vitamin therapy) in the past year, up from 34 percent in a
separate 1990 study. You too can take responsibility for your own health. DO IT!
Our bodies are our own and in the opinion of this author body, mind
and spirit are integrated completely - it's just that most of us don't,
can't or won't believe this because the opposite has been drilled into
us by our parents and the medical establishment. Living as long as we can should delight each of us;
we can see the world change before us, we can make a worth while contribution,
get connected to our own Spirit, learn to love more passionately and
longer and be a part of the changes now taking place!
"Medical science, in spite of mistakes, faulty diagnosis and much
error, humanity cannot do without its doctors, its surgeons, and its hospitals.
They are urgently needed, and will be for centuries to come. Modern medicine
must become far more open minded, more ready to endorse (after due professional
proof) that which is new, which is in the nature of innovation and which
is unusual. The barriers erected by specialized medicine must come down,
and the new schools must be sought, instructed and investigated, and finally
be included in the orthodox ranks.
The new schools, the dietitians who claim to cure all diseases through
right foods, and the rather eccentric naturopaths, plus many other cults
and schools, must not be so arrogantly sure that they have the whole story,
that their approach is the only one, or that they have a universal cure-all,
which is unique and definitely sure. These groups, particularly the chiropractors,
have definitely damaged their cause, and crippled their effort, by their
loudly shouted surety (in a field which is yet experimental), and by their
constant attack upon orthodox medicine. The latter, in its turn, has limited
itself by its failure to recognize what is good and right in the newer
schools; it has been antagonized by their clamor for recognition, and by
their lack of scientific methods. The desire of orthodox medicine is to
protect the general public. This they need to do in order to avoid the
disasters which fanatics and untried methods would bring about, but they
have gone too far in this respect."

You never do die. You simply change form. You didn't even have to do that.
You decided to do that, I didn't. I made you bodies that would last forever.
Do you really think the best God could do, the best I could come up with,
was a body that could make it 60, 70, maybe 80 years before falling apart?
Is that, do you imagine, the limit of my ability?"
(The above from Conversations with God - An
Uncommon Dialogue.) |
This information is not to make anyone an
expert, but merely to give an idea of various approaches having to do with
the body. Thus, any healing technique must treat the whole person - body,
mind and spirit. Today, there are so many new techniques and approaches
that we may have left one or two out. This is not designed to be a complete
list by any means nor provide diagnostic direction.
