The Health of Us

There is a way to live that is most healthful and in harmony with nature and the universe. That way is Holistic and Natural. Holistic is the method of living that works for the well-being of every aspect of yourself - mind, body and spirit - without causing harm to any. When we balance all of the natural health laws and guidelines, and incorporate these into our lifestyles, the natural result is health and healing - in essence, this equates to your optimal wellness. 

Holistic Natural Health is a lifestyle where you eliminate all that is destructive to your good health in any way, and add that which is life-giving, healing and creative. In fact, anything that appears to help one aspect of a person while causing adverse conditions in another aspect is contradictory to Holistic Natural Health & Healing.

Your body is a complex system of checks and balances called, 'Homeostasis', which works to keep everything just as it needs to be. Holistic Natural Health is about learning how your body works, learning your body's individual health balance needs, and supplying the materials that support your body's natural functions to keep you in optimal health. 

Holistic Natural Health (Naturopathic) uses modalities that help to restore and maintain your natural healthy balance by addressing health issues at the source.

Intergrative Medicine is a myth! Because Naturopathic and Allopathic medicines are based on two entirely opposing philosophies, the two cannot mix! Allopathic medicine is a modality that focuses on treating symptoms, generally utilizing pharmaceuticals, invasive treatments, therapies, and surgery. And, it does not focus on the root cause or source of the problem. 

Holistic Natural Health (Naturopathic) uses modalities that help to restore and maintain your natural healthy balance by addressing health issues at the source.

Holistic Natural Health is not about taking herbs instead of pharmaceuticals or doing something alternative instead of medical treatments. It is not for people who relinquish the responsibility for their health & healing to others. It is not for people who do not take care of their bodies, minds & spirits equally. 

There is a place for Allopathic Medicine in our world. In my opinion, that place is reserved for a select group of people: those who have no real knowledge, interest nor desire to become pro-active about their personal wellness, illness/disease prevention and healthy lifestyle choices. 

There will always be those who choose to 'eat, drink and be merry' regardless of the consequences health-wise, and who prefer that others rather than themselves would take responsibility for their health. 

As a pro-choice advocate, I believe everyone has the right to make choices in multiple areas of their life, including the right to choose Naturopathic or Alllopathic medicines, remedies & treatments.

Other situations where Allopathic Medicine could be the appropriate choice is in cases of congenital defects or diseases or other acute conditions such as accidents or unexpected illnesses.

For instance, when a person experiences a heart attack or an aneurysm, their best chance at life and recovery is to move quickly to a reputable hospital with qualified physicians and nurses who are ready to offer life-sustaining medications & treatments. 

Babies with debilitating or disfiguring congenital conditions deserve health options that will offer them a chance at a normal, higher quality of life - options that are usually only available at professional medical facilities.  

An accident can erase one's independence in a split second, and since it's always unexpected there's generally no time to prepare - usually there's no time to choose. It's good to know that there are qualified surgeons, nurses and additional medical personnel available to make the tough decisions - time-sensitive decisions that all too often mean the difference between resuming an independent lifestyle or lengthy debilitation; many times, it can even mean life or death.

I firmly believe that each individual should learn as much as possible about the smooth, efficient functioning of the human body, it's basic requirements that enable the body to perform those normal, daily functions and metabolic processes, the best means of maintaining our individual health & wellness and living a holistic natural lifestyle. This way, we can each create a strong, healthy body that is able to defend us against just about every attack on our health - even COVID-19!

To your good health!
