We are told to have a reaction and problem to pollen and dust, and for the most we go ahead and do so. When you have an allergy and sinus problem, it's something that is there in your face, a nuisance (telling you to react). We gladly take the medications, which controls the situation without necessarily clearing it. We settle for this without looking deeper and realizing that sinus and allergy problems are nearly always about deeper issues that have long needed to be recognized and resolved, not simply controlled. I have helped many clients understand their allergies and sinus problem to the point of no longer needing any outside product (See Joan's story: Buying time - Chapter 10). By getting down to the bottom of the issue, you can too relieve yourself from these allergies.
Another example comes from the over 8 billion dollars food supplement industry. If you listen to a professional nutritionist or the maker of food supplements, it is easy to accept that there is nothing left to eat on the planet, which will adequately sustain us. Somehow we seem to have forgotten that the Earth has hosted for hundred of years millions of people who have lived healthy and strong with nutritional levels far below what we have access to at our local supermarket. As a consequence, many people, including health professionals, are giving their children and are taking themselves sometimes over 30 different vitamins, mineral and other products every day without having any real idea of the reactions this is causing to their body and the long term effects. Meanwhile, as reported in The Washington Post in March 2000, "mounting evidence suggests that increasing number of Americans are falling seriously ill or even dying after taking dietary supplements that promise everything from extra energy to sounder sleep". And since this industry is not regulated by the FDA, food supplements manufactures are under no obligations by law to reports products problems to the government.
What do you do when others recommendations and theories do not work? At this point, there are two choices: give up and accept the worst, or give yourself a chance and get back to yourself, start listening to you, your body, and give yourself what you need. The Essence of Self-Healing is not only for people in such a position, but for everyone in all stages of good and poor health. It is a tool to give back power to where it belongs: you! After you have read the book once, you will feel great. After reading it twice, you will know that you too can use self-healing to heal. Use it then as a reference book, and a guide. Discuss it with others; share it with your loved ones, friends, family and co-workers. Each time you delve into The Essence of Self-Healing, it will make more and more sense.
Remember, no matter how bad you feel, or how dire your situation, you can bring positive change. Others have, and so can you. Remember also, whether you can see it right now or not, you have real reasons to become ill. You also have good reasons to become well, and you can make the switch.
