Your Mind, Your Healer and Doctor

If you think about the various kinds of illnesses and fear their onslaught, your brain, nervous system and every cell in your body get a corresponding awareness which may produce what you fear in some form or other in the immediate future. Every cell in your body is aware how you think and feel about yourself. There is no biochemistry outside your awareness. The cells of your body understand and change as per your sustained thoughts.

Fear of failure and anxiety about diseases, guilt feelings, despair and negative attitudes will bring diseases of various hues. Peace of mind, happiness and contentment will lead to perfect health. As stated, body’s chemical and biological processes are influenced by your awareness. Healthy thoughts and beliefs can keep your cells healthy and young. Fearful, anxious and guilty ones will make them sick.

When you go after cherished goals with an intense and persistent desire for long life and perfect health, diseases keep away. Even contagious viruses and bacteria cannot break the immunity your system builds up. New knowledge, new skills, new ways, new aims keep your mind and body renewed and healthy.

Your mind (brain) is the greatest healer and doctor. The type of thoughts you engage in keep away from you or bring to you diseases of all kinds.  Keep always an intense desire to be perfectly healthy and to live long and youthful.  No drug or medicine can match the power of your mind and its attitudes. The body follows its orders and things happen as per your thoughts, dreams and desires.  

In practice, how do you translate what is described here? Have an intense desire to live long and healthy.  Tell yourself every day -preferably when you meditate –‘I am perfectly alright both in body and mind. My life begins today and my entire future lies ahead. I love this life and everyone I come across.’ When you speak these words to yourself in your Alpha (relaxed) State feel you are perfectly alright and let this feeling permeate every cell and organ. Feel you are like a kid who is just preparing to explore this world and its wonders.

Sure Recipe for Perfect Health

  Every cell of a new born baby is pure like a dew drop. Its blood vessels are transparent like a clear glass. How does it then become sick later? Eating more fatty food stuff like red meat, fried items, burger, pizza, more salt and sugary aerated drinks is one; non-exercise is the other. Children are not trained to eat fruits, peas, lentils, vegetables and nuts. Instead, they get ice creams, cold drinks and fast foods. All these with alcohol, drugs and smoking bring in a host of health problems. 

Almost 90 percent of all diseases are related to the lifestyle of man. If one takes more food, fat gets deposited on the walls of blood vessels or elsewhere. Overweight, non-exercise and the intake of more salt coupled with the genetic propensity leads to BP, diabetes, cholesterol and heart diseases. Excess food-even carbohydrates- get deposited as fat in the body. If you are overweight your heart has to pump more blood,  lungs has to provide more oxygen to more cells; stomach, liver, pancreas intestines, blood vessels and all have to work more exhausting  vital organs and the entire system. 

If a disorder sets in, every living thing has a natural ability to get well. If a bone is broken it will be joined if the broken pieces are kept together to heal. Doctors simply keep the broken bones in position and plaster to ensure they do not get disturbed during the healing process. If a blood vessel is cut, blood clots to prevent blood loss and the spot get OK without any outside help. If the cut is large the clotting may not work and hence the wound need to be closed for the body to do the healing.

If an animal is sick, it does not eat (but drinks water) and rests completely until it is healed. If humans get sick, we do not fast, we do not take complete rest for natural healing to be effective and complete. The disease worsens and we approach a hospital or resort to medicine to get cured.

Generally eat less, that too whole grains, vegetables including leafy ones and deep colored fruits. Take less sugar and salt; avoid fast food and fired stuff, take at least 8-10 glasses of water daily. Do aerobic, muscle building and flexibility exercises and meditate for 15 minutes. Keep your memory and brain exercised.  Be purposefully engaged and, become grateful to the universe for this life and love your dear ones. This is a sure recipe for perfect health.
