What is true health and wellbeing? 

20/5/2016

​What is true health and wellbeing? Some people regard this as an absence of cancer, heart disease, diabetes or any other major form of illness. Many people live with compromised health, this maybe exhaustion, depression, headaches, IBS, constipation, painful periods, poor digestion, the list goes on and on. Have we resigned ourselves to just accept these symptoms with a sense of relief that at least we don’t have a ‘major’ illness?  
​With statistics in illness and disease skyrocketing out of control we have to ask the question – what is the reason for our declining health?
Is it not important to stand back and evaluate, feel what we may be doing that is causing our body to send out these warning signals? Our body is always communicating with us, it is up to us if we listen or ignore these little or not so little messages. 

Twenty years ago as an acupuncture practitioner, I encountered patients that were aware that they were contributing to much of their illness. Given this understanding, you would imagine they would want to choose to live in a way that no longer contributed to their health issues. Not so, some would make changes for a short period of time, but others, for whatever reason did not feel able to change their lifestyle at all. So what is this saying about us and about human beings generally?
  •  Do we not think we deserve true health?
  •  Is it not important to look after ourselves in a way that honours our body?
  •  Why is it that a supposedly intelligent species carries on in this most un-intelligent way? 
  •  Why do we abuse and disregard our bodies and choose to continue living in this way knowing we are contributing to our own ill health? 
  • Do we not want to live a life of joy, harmony, love and true vitality?
​
Beneath our illness and disease rates there is more going on. There appears to be a restlessness in the continual searching or the comfort of the next food fix, or it manifests in constantly trying to escape from what is being felt. Have we been educated to know ourselves and understand this restlessness and the energy behind it? 
What if we have the potential to know a deep contentedness and joy. What if that is in fact our natural state?
We come from love and hence we are love.
Therefore, it should hurt when you are not joy-full,
it should hurt when you are not gentle.
Why wait for an injury, for a disease
before you admit there is pain?

​
​If love is our natural state then anything that is not love has to be cleared from our body by illness and disease. If the way we live makes us sick, it is a blessing to be offered an opportunity to change the way we live.
 
What if changing the way we live to be more loving is in fact our best medicine?

Great blog Lorraine and very timely as I, at the age of 35, am just being educated now on learning to feel my body before stuffing my face to automatically numb it! All day I'm fine as I keep busy with the doing but when I get home to an empty house with no distraction almost every second is about food! So for two days when I got the craving instead of auto eating I sat and felt and was blown away by how much physical pain my body was in but also the emotions that came flooding up! I'm only at the start of my feeling life but can already see what a huge impact it stands to have on my life if I commit to feel instead of numb.
