The Western medicine community lately asked the question: Will Alternative Healthcare, a.k.a. Holistic, Metaphysical, Energy or Mind, Body, Spirit healing and Western Medicine (WM) merge? This question implies there is cause to wonder and/or we require to think of the advantages a merger may well build. The consideration of merging Holistic, Metaphysical, Energy or Mind, Body, Spirit healing and Western Medicine is analogues to comparing apples to oranges. The only comparison in between apples and oranges is that they are both fruit--but the comparison ends there. Holistic, Metaphysical, Power or Thoughts, Body, Spirit Healing and Western Medicine is diametrically polar opposites with absolutely nothing in normal, except the topic (you). I will explain.
In order to recognize the ideology of Western Medicine, you require to examine the language used by doctors and researchers. Their alternative of words reveals their belief systems and the models they use to understand the way they think healing works. When observing the state of Western Medicine and the unprecedented influence of pharmaceuticals and over-the-counter (OTC) drugs, an interesting paradox arises. The drug organisations claim that pharmaceuticals and OTC can do wonders for consumers: lower cholesterol, finish clinical depression, reverse osteoporosis, eradicate allergies, remedy cancer, cure MS, calm children and numerous other related promises.
If prescription or OTC drugs are so fantastic for men and women, exactly where are all the wholesome medicated customers? The truth is, there are not, any. There is nobody taking twelve prescriptions or OTC drugs with a clean bill of health. In reality, the much more prescriptions a individual takes, the worse their overall wellness. And if you approach the healthiest individuals you can locate and ask what prescription drugs or OTC drugs they are taking in order to be so healthy, they'll give you a confused look: Wholesome folks do not take prescription or OTC drugs!
This sort of language is not uncommon from researchers in Western Medicine. They perceive the human body as a battleground on which wars are waged against invaders (viruses, bacterial infections and tumors). Starting with the Victorian era, Western society has come to be addicted to swift fixes and results with no effort. Western Medicine has in some instances supplied this result. When Western Medicine does not create a 'quick fix' result the answer is: "Sorry, it couldn't be helped--the surgery was a success, the patient died." It is intriguing to note the AMA reports a dismal good results rate--around 250,000 individuals die each and every year due to misdiagnosis and/or the treatment does small or absolutely nothing to improve the person's wellness. In other words these folks did not die due to an illness they died due to the incorrect treatment.
Western Medicine's theory and doctrines fail to recognize that diseases are not separate from the person. In fact every single illness can be even more accurately called an expression of the patient's lifestyle, beliefs, and energies. Cancer is not a tumor, for example: it is a systemic disorder that can only truly be cured by helping to support the body, not by attacking it with chemical bombs or knives. The tumor is merely 1 physical expression of the systemic disorder, and basically removing the tumor does absolutely nothing to remedy the illness. The body is designed to heal itself--given it has the right care--nutrition, herbal supplements, spiritual and emotional nicely-getting.
The body is designed to heal itself supplied it has the suitable help to do its job. Standard Chinese medicine (TCM) is based on a concept of balanced qi (pronounced "chee"), or vital power, that is believed to flow throughout the body. Qi is proposed to regulate a person's spiritual, emotional, mental, and physical balance and to be influenced by the opposing forces of yin (negative energy) and yang (positive energy). Illness is proposed to result from the flow of qi becoming disrupted and yin and yang becoming imbalanced. Amongst the components of TCM are herbal and nutritional therapy, restorative physical workout routines, meditation, acupuncture, and remedial massage.
Holistic, Metaphysical, Power or Mind, Body, Spirit healing has existed considering that the starting of time amid religious beliefs and practices, along with the mystery, superstition, fear, and misunderstanding. Holistic Healing is now becoming recognized regardless of what any individual chooses to believe or feel. Ask nearly everyone about their spiritual nicely-getting and they will in all probability tell you, "Yeah, I am a spiritual individual, I go to church often." Therein, the confusion arises out of the association of healing with religion. The majority of people, such as religious leaders, do not realize the difference.
Definition: "HEAL" 1. To restore to wellness or soundness, 2. To set appropriate, repair, three. To restore a individual to spiritual wholeness, 4. To turn into complete and sound, to return to well being.
Definition: "SPIRIT" 1. The very important principle or animating force inside living beings, Incorporeal consciousness. There are about twelve alot more elaborations largely to do with numerous religious implications.
Definition: "RELIGION" 1. Belief in and reverence for a supernatural energy or powers regarded as creator and governor of the universe, 2. A set of beliefs, values and practices based on the teachings of a religious doctrine.
Thus, based on Western Medicine's frequent interpretations of how points 'ARE', a great number of paradoxes are made. The resultant effect is confusion and un-wellness. The Truth, as Carl Jung and other people have cautiously worded in their writing, is this: Every Factor in the universe is Power and Consciousness. How any person thinks or feels about that Fact can not transform it. The objective of All religions is the recognition that humans have a part of themselves that is not physical and there is a require to discover and expertise this aspect of themselves. Component of the intent is to uncover one's objective and to reside in the very best way probable. Yet another component of that objective also contains the attainment of Truth and Spiritual Wellness. Then again, the result of religious teachings with regard to our Spiritual well being has been an abysmal failure. If the most valuable aspect of our becoming is our Spiritual self, and it has been neglected, it is a miracle we have existed this long.
A large number of churches are in a state of extreme confusion in an try to stay away from accepting the "Truth." The greatest struggle is how to incorporate all the now known expertise and assimilate it into the religious dogma and theology. The situation is the impossibility of reconciling the obvious flaws in most theology and doctrine. The apparent shortcomings and how political and nationalistic and other specific interests and agendas have resulted in a history filled with disappointment, tragedy, confusion and religious wars.
In quite a few cultures it has usually been believed and/or identified that we are spiritual beings, the biggest exception is in western industrialized cultures that we believe we are persons who occur to have a soul. Eastern philosophy believes we are a soul initial, housed in this thing named a 'body.' The most spectacular and straightforward interpretation of how every thing 'IS' can be identified in the Native American tradition. "Everything in the universe is Spirit, every single factor in it is of the similar Spirit and it is all Connected." This is exactly what we are starting to understand in science and quantum physics, that almost everything in the universe is produced of the similar thing and has a consciousness about it. The two factors that frustrate scientists the most is the truth that all these
issues operate across time, space and dimensions they do not yet recognize, and the capability of issues to operate on inter-dimensional and multi-dimensional levels. A high degree of new understanding about the science and physics of what spiritual really indicates is now mostly coming from independent researchers. High-tech and aerospace research physicists and scientists, all appear to have a additional concise and accurate understanding of Spirit and the Spiritual than those from a theological background.
The Reality and The Truth of Spirit--In plain language, there is only 1 God or Universal Energy that Is Every thing. There is only 1 Consciousness. We are only one particular individuated expression of The 1. All the dogma, theology and religious beliefs everyone chooses to pile on this truth is frequently referred to as Bunk. It is the lack of correct knowledge and the application of these distortions, which have been the source of all emotional, physical and spiritual concerns. Spirit is alive, it is a thing that is lived and experienced, the surest way to destroy or suppress it is to organize it and institutionalize it.
Spiritual Experiences teach us: Every thing we think or feel impacts oneself and others. We have to have to comprehend each feeling--anger, worry, hate, sadness, judgment--are mind generated emotions and require to be modified or eliminated. Left to fester--anger, worry, hate, sadness, judgment, creates physical reactions. For each physical reaction, a.k.a. symptoms--i.e. colds, cancer, MS, and every little thing from A to Z, there is a direct link to mind generated emotions. When these thoughts generated emotions are eliminated and the wounds produced from extended term and dysfunctional expressions are healed, the physical manifestation labeled as illness by Western Medicine is eliminated.
The bottom line is Health and Nicely-Becoming is affected by two factions--Physicians and Ministers. Physicians are trained as mechanics who operate on the physical mechanism. They are in the Company of "Remedy." They are Not Trained in the "Art of Healing". Most physicians do not even fully grasp the most rudimentary concepts of Healing. Most do not comprehend how they can produce damage and even induce death sentences on their patients.
There is small difference in the effects made by an intentional damaging curse or a prayer prayed improperly, negative tips or just some random negative thought. Ministers are trained in classic theosophical dogmatic perceptions certain to the cultural religious views they ascribe to. Most consumers have small idea about True Spirituality or how the universe certainly operates. As a consequence they convey misinformation, half-truths, superstitions and fears along with a multitude of associated damaging information and facts into a person's consciousness. The result of which is Confusion and Paradox--which leads to distress, disease and un-wellness.
Each the fantastic in our lives and the dis-eases we have are the results of our experiences, conditioning and beliefs. It is the experiences, conditioning and beliefs that are counter to our correct nature that causes the damage. No matter how dire a client's predicament seems to be, I Know if they are 'Willing' to do the emotional and spiritual function of releasing old habits, beliefs and forgiving, every thing can be healed. The word 'incurable' applied by Western Medicine genuinely only means that the person can not be 'cured' by 'outer' techniques and that they need to Go Inside to effect their healing. The condition was created as a way to cope--it came from within and can be healed from within. Reference: Heal Your Body, Louise L. Hay
Given that Holistic/Metaphysical Healthcare focuses on supporting the Mind, Body, Spirit to heal itself as it is designed to do and Western Medicine perceives the human body as a battleground on which wars are waged with chemical bombs and scalpels against invaders, how can these divergent ideologies be merged?
The answer: They cannot be--i.e. water and vinegar does not mix--it is metaphysically impossible. Likewise, it is metaphysically impossible to merge Holistic, Metaphysical, Power or Thoughts, Body, Spirit healing and Western Medicine. Any one who would take into account such a merger does not know the laws of Holistic, Metaphysical, Power or Mind, Body, Spirit healing.
