The Nature of Natural Healing

Never before has there been such a great interest in natural self-healing--and such a resistance to it. Natural healing requires re-visioning. It cannot be viewed through the magnifying glass of modern medicine that sees everything in small, unconnected parts.

Never before has there been such a great interest in natural self-healing and such a resistance to it.

Natural healing requires re-visioning. It cannot be viewed through the magnifying glass of modern medicine that sees everything in small, unconnected parts. Some alternative healing methods are vehemently attacked by orthodox medicine because they are seen to lack a basis in science or because they have not undergone clinical double-blind studies. Thousands of people, often over thousands of years have shown traditional therapies work very well. Reports often verify tremendous success for patients on whom orthodox medicine has given up.

But then the goals of orthodox medicine differ fundamentally from those of natural healing. Orthodox medicine focuses on treating symptoms. Potent drugs are employed that often produce a whole list of dangerous side-effects. Mainstream medicine looks for the miracle drug, the one-shot magic bullet that will eradicate certain targeted diseases.

Natural healing, on the other hand, aims to treat the underlying causes rather than the symptoms. The goal is to restore balance to the whole system using gentle methods that work with and not against the body.

Through clever marketing and by pouring billions of dollars into advertising, the pharmaceutical industry has made us believe that health comes about through chemical drugs. Physicians write countless prescriptions every year for antibiotics, tranquilizers, diet drugs, sleeping pills almost anything, it seems, that our drug-dependent society demands. But the dire consequences of this free-flow of medication are becoming more evident with each report of unforeseen side-effects and the rampant spread of bacteria that have grown immune to antibiotics. In contrast, the safety record of natural medicines including herbs, homeopathics, vitamins and minerals, tissue salts and enzymes is excellent.

Never before has there been such a great interest in natural self-healing and such a resistance to it from some governments and medical powers. Yet it is your constitutional right to educate yourself in health and medical knowledge, to seek helpful information and make use of it for your own benefit, and for that of your family.
