Learn The Simple Truth to Achieving Optimum Health

"If there were such a thing as an incurable disease, humanity and every other living creature would have been exterminated ages ago. But no matter how virulent and life destroying the so-called fatal diseases may be, there comes a time when their poisonous activity ends. Nature’s creative forces are more than equal to her destructive forces."

The above statement came from the book, "Advanced Treatise in Herbology" by Dr. Edward E. Shook, Enos Publishing Co., 1992.

Let’s take a moment to think about this statement. If there really were "Incurable Diseases" I guess Dr. Shook would be right, that all living creatures on Mother Earth would have been wiped out by now. Right? It makes sense to me.

So, since we inhabitants of earth are still here, I guess that would mean that the medical community, those who originated the term "Incurable Disease", may feel that a disease may be incurable by medical science standards, but lucky for us, Mother Nature feels differently.

In my opinion, if I were told that I had an incurable disease and that nothing more can be done for me to help me recover. I guess I would look at what Mother Nature may be offering. On the other hand, I do not think I should wait until some doctor tells me that I am dying of advanced heart disease or a rare form of cancer or some disease which they consider as incurable, before I would look into what Mother Nature has to offer me.

. . . Failing does not bring you down, a negative mental attitude does. Not setting positive goals does. Whether you like it or not you wind up in life where you put yourself, with your actions and inactions, there is nobody to blame or praise, but yourself. Start out with a small goal that you can accomplish with ease and gradually set goals that are a little beyond your current reach. As you accomplish your goals you will gain confidence which will propel you to setting and accomplishing even bigger and harder goals than you had ever imagined.

Many people need support from others, if you can, get together with one or more friends or family members. Use each other as a support group. Why do you think one of the reasons Weight Watchers is so successful? They have support groups. When someone feels the need to go off of the program because of negative thoughts, they call one of the members from their support group to turn their negative thought into a positive thought.

I heard on the news recently about a women who travels across the country helping people lose weight simply by praying and turning to GOD whenever they have negative thoughts that are getting them away from their goals. From what I saw, many people were benefiting from this positive, spiritual approach to losing weight.

One thing to keep in mind, positive attracts positive. Before you go to bed at night write down your goals and visualize your self as already achieving that goal. Periodically recite to yourself your goals in the present tense as if you had already accomplished them. After 21 days of doing the same thing you train your subconscious mind to develop a new habit. Once this new habit is accomplished your subconscious takes over. So, by setting positive goals you will develop positive habits and accomplish positive things in your life.

"Gee, that all sounds great, but how does all of this affect my health?" It seems that when the body is immersed in positive energy waves it functions more effectively. Have you ever had a day when you got up in the morning feeling terrible, but you had so much to do that day that you just kept going. Then when the day was over you realized that in the morning you had felt terrible but you did not have time to dwell on that negative feeling. So, what does this mean? It means that you set out to accomplish what you had to do (which was a positive thing) and you did not think about how terrible you felt in the morning (which was a negative thing).

The bottom line is, you are what you think you are. If you think that you are a failure, you will be a failure, but at the same time when you keep saying to yourself that you are a failure you are actually setting a goal for yourself. And when you reflect about your life and agree with yourself that you are in fact a failure guess what, you actually set a goal and accomplished it, which means that you succeeded in accomplishing that goal, which means that you are actually a success. WOW, I bet you never thought that you were so successful.
