Everyone is born with almost the same body. Yet, each body reacts differently to the environment as we grow up. For example, If two people got sick, and both don't consume medicines, one could still take longer than the other to recover. It works on the concept of cause and effect. What you put into the body is what it would become. If you feed it with raw food with live enzymes, it would be full of energy as against eating animal products which make our system sluggish as it takes longer to process and get out of your body. The person eating raw, fresh and non processed food will recover quicker than the other. This is not a coincidence but is something we can witness on a daily basis.
Our body is programmed to heal automatically. Even if we try, we can't stop the natural process. When you get a cut, you do practically NOTHING to make it heal. It does heal by itself. The body's first reaction to any sickness or bruise is to make the owner of the body aware about it by giving pain, runny nose, bleeding, puss, pimples, etc. This is a sign of the underlying condition - Not the problem itself. You need to identify the sign to bring about change your lifestyle, if necessary.
For example - most of us are dehydrated as we don't consume enough water. 2/3rd of our body is water- when our body isn't getting enough water, it takes all measures possible to reduce water loss in the body.
The maximum amount of water lost from the body is due to respiration as each time we exhale, we release water vapour. So, in order to preserve water, the body blocks the bronchial tubes to restrict breathing. This can cause the condition called asthma.
Modern medicine only treats the symptom and let's the problem persist. It is essential to understand the root cause of the problem. If we were to tell an asthama patient to consume more water to be free of this dis-ease, what do you think they would choose - medicines or water?
We all need to become more aware of our bodies - made of the most advanced technology in the world!!
Lets treat this gift given to us (free of cost) by the almighty with love and respect. Let us not abuse it just for a month by feeding it with things which aren’t for our highest good! After a month, your body itself will teach you to refuse it!! Help your body help you to lead a fitter and fulfilling life! You’ve earned it - just by being born in this world!
Love and Light,
