Good morning Angelo! [emoji41]
Hi Flint
I am reading a book called The Ultra Mind Solution written by Mark Hyman M.D.
There is a lot of information about functional medicine which i find really interesting.My mother died of Altzimers , and my Dad died of depression,he fell into a dark hole after he found out about my Mom,and basically starved himself to death.
So i have been doing a bunch of reading about our brains and this is one of the books that i have read that makes a lot of sense.
In it he explains that we need to quite treating people with drugs for a disease which a bunch of different people get grouped into.Every person is unique and requires different treatment then everyone else that has been labeled with the same disease.Sometimes the treatment is simple like what you are or aren't eating.And sometimes it's a buildup of heavy metals in your system from environmental causes.
In a nutshell we are all different,and cures for what ails us are different than the guy with the same symptoms living in a different state.Most of the time the Doc's will give you a pill to mask the symptoms instead of finding the cause of the symptoms.If you have a tack in your foot and take a hand full of painkillers the pain will go away for a while.Then you need more painkillers.But if you take the tack out the pain will disappear without taking painkillers
I highly recommend the read.You might find something that works for you that doesn't require you being a doped up zombie,and back to enjoying life.
Good luck,and don't forget that there is lots of help out there ,don't be afraid to use it.
Thomas made some good points here. Dr. Hyman is a wealth of information, as is Dr. Mercola. Both have an approach that seek to remove that “invisible” tack as opposed to ignoring it and treating the pain. These tacks can be created from nutritional deficiencies, but most often they at least have an emotional (mind) component. Whenever we experience a mood shift, for the better or the worse, that happens without any perceived outside influences, it is caused by an anchor, (trigger) in our mind. It can be anything, a smile, a scowl, a smell, a taste, a color, etc...
We most often do not consciously connect our mood change with these anchors, we don’t even know they are there.
Obviously it is good to create positive anchors that lift us up, but the hard part is finding, and deleting the negative anchors that bring us down. They become so intertwined in our lives we just think it is us with the problem. The truth is we, that is our minds and body, are working perfectly with the “data” that it has and believes. When you change the data the entire mind/body shifts.
Of course we cannot just hook up an OBD2 reader to our minds and find the error codes, so it is important to find a guide. And the methods for removing this bad data are not widely known.
I have found 2 methods to be the most powerful NLP (neuro linguistic programming) and Meridian Tapping techniques.
There is a lot you can do for yourself when learning these techniques, they are actually very easy to use.
But it is always good to have a guide, sometimes we all get stuck in the box. Knowing the right questions to ask to find the problems are the tricky part.
