This blog is about providing information that is helpful to people who have heard of but are not very familiar with alternative types of healing. This will help you make an informed decision about which path to take, traditional or some call it western medicine or holistic or natural health or maybe you'll choose a combination. Today I’m going to provide you with some information, in order to start you on this process.
I looked up the definition of medicine and found this description: The science or practice of the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of disease. I’ll let you decide if you think that is really what traditional medicine does. I’ll go along with the first two, but I personally don’t think they’re into prevention, but that’s just my opinion.
I also looked for the definition of holistic health and found what I thought was spot on: The definition of holistic health is simple and inclusive. It is your overall state of wellness on all levels of your being: physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. It covers the health of your entire being and extends to your relationships, resources and environment.
Although we've become accustomed to examining and treating each of these areas separately, holistic health or wellness implies the health of the whole. In reality, your body, mind and spirit are completely intertwined and cannot be separated. They are aspects of the whole, not separate entities. To affect one level, either positively or negatively, influences your entire being.
Once you truly grasp the importance of the mind-body-spirit-relationship, and address well-being on all levels, the more likely you are to see remarkable changes occur.
There is much more to come, so please join my little community of followers and stay tuned for my next post.
Before I sign off, I'm offering Body Code sessions for $55 per session until the end of March. If you're interested in making an appointment for a session, please use my "Contact Me" tab on my website and I'll get back to you as quickly as possible.
Until next time----
