Healing is Not for Sissies, Part 2
By Bill Haggard, All About Health
In
the July/August 2013 issue of Truly Alive Magazine
(last issue), I responded to an individual who wrote
in desperation; questioning why he or she was
feeling so poorly when this person was in fact doing soooo
many good things for health and well-being. Most people are
not knowledgeable about what it takes to maintain a strong,
vibrant body, along with a clear-thinking, creative mind. Many
of us take health for granted, until we start to lose it.
At health food stores, you will see health-conscious
shoppers buying non-GMO foods, nutritional supplements
and grass-fed, antibiotic-free animal products. You may also
notice both healthy and unhealthy-looking people. The fact
is…these individuals are seeking to maintain—or reclaim—
their health. If you walk into a mainstream grocery store and
look at what most are putting into their shopping carts, you
might think the people don’t look sick, but they are: they just
don’t realize it—yet.
Our bodies have an amazing capacity to handle insult and
abuse, but they do have limits and will start to break down
eventually. Some call it aging. I call it “collecting clutter.”
If we don’t know the rules on maintaining good health, then
we think there are no rules: anything goes. You might even
boast that “I can eat or drink anything I want and I never get
sick.” But whether we like it or not, there are rules and laws for
health. We can ignore them or break them, but in the end they
will break us.
Sickness, disease, chronic fatigue, aches, pains, aging…
it’s all the same problem. We are collecting clutter from a
lifetime’s worth of bodily insult, injury and abuse from our
daily lifestyle…starting with bottled baby food all the way
to present-day choices. And it’s not just food and drink that
harm us, but our negative thoughts and emotions as well. These
create a toxic build-up that our physiology has to deal with,
along with contributions from an unhealthy environment.
Let me put it this way: if you have a nice, new house, it looks
beautiful, orderly and highly functional. There’s a place for
everything and everything is in its place. All is wonderful, until
you start going to swap meets or garage sales and bring home
things you don’t really need (because they were such great deals
and you just might need them in future). Then you begin saving
things and adding them to the inside of your house. Over time,
you only have paths from the front door to the kitchen, from
the kitchen to the TV room and to the bedroom and all the
rest is clutter. The outside of the house still looks great, but the
inside is a mess and in desperate need of cleaning.
This is a good analogy of what we do to ourselves if we insist
on feeding only our pleasure centers and taste buds, with no
regard for the trillions of hungry and thirsty cells that make
up our beings. If we don’t nourish our cells, eventually we
degenerate, age and die. And who wants to die prematurely or
live many years in constant pain?
Now is the time to clean up your house while you still have
energy. A plant-based diet is a good starting-point. Juicing,
blending and low-heat cooking are also helpful. Colon hydrotherapy
(colonics) is an important adjunct to the cleansing process
and will help minimize the discomfort of detoxifying as
you reclaim your health.
Colonics are an anti-aging therapy. It requires a lot of
energy to manage all the clutter accumulated in our bodies over
time. Colonics remove the clutter, little by little. One colonic is
equal to 30-40 bowel movements. That is a lot of waste removal!
This frees up energy to do more than just waste management;
such as cellular repair, clear-thinking abilities, vitality, better
sleep, and healthy skin and nails and more.
So start your house-cleaning today and reclaim your health!
It’s not always easy…but you’ll be glad you did.
Love, Bill
