THE RHYTHMS OF THE CHAKRAS

Over the thousands (???) of years that man has been living on earth, certain belief systems have developed, based purely on their ability to heal. Have you ever heard the word chakras, with a soft "c"?

I have found this form to be a valuable way to bring people into their bodies. There are 7 primary chakras, starting at the base of the torso. Each area has with it a corresponding sensibility. There are also corresponding colors and sounds.

Most of humanity tends to operate with an awareness of the first three chakras. Rare indeed is the person who has moved into the 4th chakra.

What do I want to say about this work? That it's still a theory to me. I honor it and believe in it, but I don't have a total experience of it. I have felt the kundalini energy rise through my spine, and I have a kinesthetic sense of the 7 areas of the body, but it is the least palpable, for me, of the systems I have explored in this book.

It is a valuable map.

Knowledge of our Bodies as Essential in the New World

I know so many people who are dealing with symptoms that refuse to be conveniently diagnosed. There are more and more "syndromes" cropping up in medicine. A syndrome is basically a group of symptoms that have been showing up in people, and yet there is no known illness. The medical profession does not understand its workings. And often there is no known cure.

My sense is that our lives are so complicated at this point, there are so many powerful and divergent inputs coming at us each day, that it would be very difficult for a doctor to be aware of what is causing our problems. The average visit with an allopathic doctor (MD) is 6 minutes long. And there are about 20 drugs that are prescribed for about 85% of all symptoms the doctor sees.(what are they???).

 It is my sense that I am the only one in a position to really know what is affecting me. "...." is my favorite resource for when I have unexpected symptoms occur. It is well laid out, easy to follow, and it works!

So what do you do when you get unusual symptoms? What do you believe about your body? Do you trust the medical profession to be always be guided by what is best for you, their client?

NUTRITION

The importance of nutrition on our daily well being is only recently receiving its due recognition. We have been ruled by the edicts of the medical profession. Let's face it, we love to have "Daddy" tell us what we should do. I am constantly flabbergasted by how readily people ingest pharmaceutical drugs without batting an eye. And they will continue in that vein. The average doctor's visit is 6 minutes. And there are about 16 drugs that make up 90% of a doctor's prescriptions. All that training so they can see as many people as fast as possible and be whores for the drug companies. If you have a strong constitution, this information will not seem as pressing as for those of us who are constantly fighting for our health.

Of all the diets out there, if I were to recommend one that provides the most benefit, it would be found in the book "Body Ecology" by. ??? was ???? die, and so she went on her own journey of self discovery and found...
