An In-Depth Discussion On Natural Health And Healing

• Overall Wellbeing and Health – Conventional medicine / common opinion aims to attack and kill disease, and it often becomes so engrossed in dealing with what it deems as a disease or condition, that it forgets the main purpose of healthcare – the health and wellbeing of a person.

For example, in the case of cancer, it tries so hard to cut, poison or burn a tumor out that the poor patient often ends up suffering very badly and then dying anyway.

In the arena of natural health and healing, the fundamental basis is NOT to attack, kill or remove disease, but to provide the right circumstances to get a person as healthy as possible, and let his or her body decide on how to heal itself.

Natural health and healing looks to the overall wellbeing and health of a person; in the example of cancer, it is not the worst thing if a tumor remains in place, as long as the treated person remains alive and well.

• First Do No Harm – in harmony with how the human body works – Conventional medicine / common opinion methods almost always do more harm to the body in the long run.

For example, if you suppress a runny rose or a cough, you are denying your body the opportunity to get rid of unwanted chemicals, particles or organisms; if you suppress a fever, you are stopping your body’s attempt to kill unwanted invaders.

So, where do these unwanted enemies go? They remain in your body, doing more harm. Worse, over time, your body may give up or forget how to create a cough or a fever; i.e. your immune system gets damaged.

In addition, a sick person’s body is already weak and loaded with toxins and impurities, yet drugs, which are poisons for the body to process, are taken, thereby increasing the toxic load on the body – in the long run, it then becomes harder to effect a cure. These methods violate the Hippocratic Oath of “Do No Harm”.

One of natural health and healing’s core mental models is not to harm the body in any way. Natural health and healing always seeks to first do no harm and to WORK WITH the body to heal itself, for the body has an innate wisdom and ability for self-preservation, to keep well and GET well.

One thing here to note, is that in working with the body to heal itself, one’s condition sometimes has to become worse before turning for the better. This is sometimes termed a “healing reaction” or a “detox reaction”, and is due to the body’s attempts to clean, detoxify and heal itself.
