All business is looking for a customer and a repeat customer is always the best kind!
When we are ill or develop a disease, the western medical doctor is usually ready and willing to prescribe a pharmaceutical drug that may help alleviate symptoms. I don’t think any of us wish to be on a drug for months or years, but that would certainly be a great profit potential for Big Pharma wouldn’t it?...making you believe there is no cure but only treatment…long-term treatment. That may sound fine to you but let’s be clear – do you want to be treated or healed? What is the difference?
I’ve personally known the difference for some time now but David Hawkins puts it quite eloquently, “The difference between treating and healing is that in the former, the context remains the same, whereas in the latter, the clinical response is elicited by a change of context so as to bring about an absolute removal of the cause of the condition rather than mere recovery from its symptoms.” He goes on to add…”It’s one thing to prescribe an anti-hypertensive medication for high blood pressure, it’s quite another to expand the patient’s context of life so that he stops being angry and repressive.”
So, knowing that “healing” is the more logical, appropriate and desired choice, why does Big Pharma only offer drug “treatments” (listen carefully for that word in TV drug commercials!). The answer boils down to TWO reasons…
1. MONEY
2. Big Pharma’s products (drugs) are incapable of “healing” – only the body heals itself but it must be given the right tools and/or circumstances
First, let’s talk MONEY. Remember, a repeat customer is always the best kind! If you keep your disease but can manage the symptoms, you will likely be a longer-term customer. The only problem is this…without removal of the cause (healing), the disease may worsen or negative side effects may occur and you may require more drugs or possibly surgery. Big Pharma and the Western Medical Establishment are counting on that – believe it! A good surgeon and hospital care do not come cheap these days – MONEY is their main goal.
Secondly, drugs do not heal – never have and never will. Only the body heals BUT!...it must be given the right tools and/or circumstances. Nutritious foods, rest, exercise, herbs, supplements, detoxification, acupuncture, meditation, chiropractic, fresh air, sunlight, avoiding stress/toxins/EMF’s , overcoming negative emotions and living a fun, loving and fulfilling life can all be important aspects of prevention and cure (healing). Remember, what prevents can also cure! Pharmaceuticals are a short-term (band-aid) solution and in most cases of dis-ease (lack of ease) should only be used as such (if at all!).
So, in conclusion – being your OWN doctor may be the best solution to healing. You care about your health more than anyone else – don’t give up control of your body to someone else! Learn how to live well with some of the methods in the above paragraph so you can avoid the “treatment” trap and keep/get your body healthy and healed!
