There is not one day that goes by without talk about poor health and diet and the role of prescription drugs. People are generally afraid to take drugs, but more afraid not to take them because of their doctor's insistence that they might "help them feel better".
I would never suggest not taking prescription drugs... not my place. However, as a holistic practitioner with knowledge of the body, I teach people how to make that decision themselves by listening to their body's needs through Body Centered Hypnotherapy.
The mind-body connection is not a mysterious, new-age concept reserved for the mystic or wannabe "healer". It's an art and science that takes practice and can be learned by anyone who really wants to learn. By that, I mean if you really want to tune in to your body to find out what it needs, you'd be surprised at how easy it is with the right tools.
Just Nutrients
Our bodies are designed to be healthy and vibrant if we simply allow it. Through my practice, I teach people how to listen to their body's need for nutrients. In all cases, they're cravings turn to healthful, wholesome foods, not drugs or supplements (surprisingly). They become energetic, focused and motivated to take care of themselves through little outside intervention. Of course, there may be a need for supplementation depending on age and lifestyle, and for that, I recommend naturally derived ingredients for cell nutrition... supplementation that's easy to assimilate and nourishes down to the cells of the body.
Up Your Mileage
What if you put something in your car's gas tank because it claims to give you better mileage? However, you notice it makes your engine sluggish. You then put something in your engine to "optimize it". Now wait, that knocked out parts of the electrical system. Would you then pay thousands of dollars for rewiring?
It amazes me how many people go through a similar scenario with their body (and car, actually). There's a tendency to want to "fix" ourselves by adding, applying, or taking more in. If we can learn to step back and think about the situation as a whole and map out different scenarios, we can usually find a much simpler solution that may involve doing less, or at least different. Isn't your body and health worth the time for that kind of study?
What if you simply drove less and changed the way you handle your car? Wouldn't that have saved you time, money and hassle? What if you found a way to reduce your stress levels, change your diet, and move your body more to say, lower cholesterol, reduce hypertension, control diabetes, depression, etc.?
One Thing
All you need to use mind-body tools effectively, is a real desire to change parts of your lifestyle, rather than bandaid one thing after another that may be going "wrong" in your body. The result is a strategic mindset with better focus and the ability to place your health and well being at the top of your priorities. No prescription drugs, otc supplementation or electrical rewiring necessary.
