What is Alternative Healthcare?
Has traditional healthcare failed you? Have
you tried every pill on the market and you're still in pain? Have you been to see every doctor in town and now one can tell you what to do to get your life back on track? Are you ready to try something new?
Alternative healthcare (also known as energetic healthcare, non-traditional healthcare, contemporary healthcare, or integrative healthcare) is based on the idea that the body is inherently healthy and that all healing is actually self-healing. However, the body will sometimes experience blockages, whether they are emotional, mental, physical, or spiritual, that cause a disruption in the form of pain.
This pain, which is occurring because the body is trying to tell you something, will only get worse if it is ignored or covered up, which is the basis of our traditional healthcare system. (This is why pills all have negative side effects. Have you ever noticed how a pill will take care of one problem and cause 5 others?) In alternative healthcare, it is our job to help you express, not suppress, the underlying blockage so that your body can heal.
How does this work?
You have to start by understanding that the whole paradigm of alternative healthcare is very different from traditional healthcare. Alternative healthcare is actually based on the new knowledge which is explained by Quantum Physics, while traditional medicine works on the old paradigm which embraces Newtonian Physics. In this way, alternative healthcare is truly the medicine of the future.
Alternative healthcare understands that everything in the universe is composed of energy, including the human body. The part of you that you experience as your physical body is actually slowed down energy that becomes what we recognize as form or "matter." But even in this slowed down state, only about 1% of your body can be identified as matter. This, however, is where most of us, including traditional medicine, focus our attention. Because it is so dense and because we can experience it through our 5 senses, we believe that we ARE our bodies, and we often forget that first and foremost we are energetic beings.
When you focus on the party of of you that is energy, however, you will soon realize that the body is actually an electrical being. It works by carrying information from the unseen world into your body through what is essentially an electrical grid. This grid is made up of what we call chakras and meridians. This grid carries information to the various parts of your body, feeding it what it needs to stay alive and healthy. When you get a blockage anywhere in the system, the body will not get enough energy to keep it functioning optimally and you will experience some sort of signal, whether it is pain or anxiety or aging or whatever. Its sort of like a kink in an electrical wire or a kink in a garden hose. If you block the flow of energy, you will get a reaction! Our job is to find that blockage and eliminate it on the energetic or causal level.
What causes these blockages?
To understand why you have blockages, you have to start by understanding that you actually have FOUR bodies: the physical body, the emotional body, the mental body, and the spiritual body, all of which are intricately connected to make up your experience of who you are.
Again, the physical body is the most obvious because it is more dense than the other bodies, which means that you can experience it as your reality. You can see it and feel it and smell it and so it seems very real. The other three bodies, however, are vibrating faster than your 5 senses can perceive, which means that they are easy to ignore or overlook. In other words, you can't see them so you assume they don't exist. But just because you can't see them with your eyes, doesn't mean that they aren't there.
We all know that we have a part of ourselves that is emotional. And we all know that we have a part of ourselves that is spiritual and so forth. Have you ever wondered where those parts are? Modern science can tell you that information is not actually stored in the brain, it is only processed through the brain. And your emotions are not stored in your heart, they are only processed through your heart. So where are they?
Surprise, surprise. They are actually electrical impulses that are stored in the energetic fields (or bodies) that surround your physical body. These fields, which are often referred to as your aura, are where you get blocked. Moreover, because everything in the universe is energy before it becomes matter, all physical level blockages in the body (like a blocked artery for instance) START as a blockage in the energy field. If the blockage is eliminated in the energy field BEFORE it becomes a physical block, you do not have to experience the actual damage to your physical body! Exciting, huh?
So lets say that you have a traumatic experience in your life. Perhaps you are in a car accident or you are raped or your parents divorce...something like that. That trauma, if left unresolved on any of the 4 levels, will cause a blockage that will ultimately cause you physical, mental, or emotional pain.
That's why when we at the Self-Health and Awareness Center see a "symptom" we don't automatically look at that specific body part and say "oh, the problem must be right here." For instance, lets say you have a shoulder that is hurting. We don't automatically assume that there is something wrong with your shoulder and give you a pain pill or schedule you for exploratory surgery. Instead, we might ask, "what kind of responsibilities are you carrying right now that are weighing on your shoulders?"
By looking at all four of the bodies and then addressing the blockage energetically, the pain will often go away and stay away without ever invading the physical body in any way.
Is Alternative Healthcare for me?
For many people, alternative healthcare is very new. As a result it sounds weird or scary. Some go so far as to call it "evil" or "the work of the devil" which is really just an indication of how scared they are. We understand that. From this perspective, however, alternative healthcare requires an open mind. If you are one of those people who is really scared by something new and different, we really aren't the place for you and traditional healthcare remains your best option. If however, you are open-minded, bright, and really ready to heal, then alternative healthcare is definitely the place for you.
