This weeks question comes from a former health coach and colleague.
Good health probably tops my chart as one of life’s most important matters how does living consciously create good health?
Let me begin by introducing you to a term we use around the office, our Total Holistic Integrated System (T.H.I.S.).
We describe T.H.I.S. as your mind, spirit, emotional and physical bodies, expressed an integrated self-support system.
T.H.I.S. produces waves in the quantum field, electromagnetic signals, brain waves, and energy signatures. When we live consciously we recognize that we are the expression of life through trillions of cells, thoughts, perceptions, beliefs, attitudes, personality traits, emotions, and fields of awareness. Each one of us is a unique whole self-support system, and eco-system combined into T.H.I.S.
Health is important because we, as human beings, function best when we are healthy. Symptoms of imbalance show up one or more of our expressions of T.H.I.S. become unhealthy. A symptom might be a cold, but it could also be an unhealthy thought, an argument with a loved one, a defining moment of drama or trauma in your life, a financial struggle, numbing out to television, addictions, hurting yourself, a car wreck, losing your keys or cancer, the list goes on.
When you are in perfect health you are in the flow of life we are empowered to live fully, and our experience of life is enriched beyond measure. Louise L. Hay says you can heal your life with your thoughts, Biology of Belief author Bruce Lipton agrees and tells us in detail the biology. I however, think it is only one aspect of the living consciously.
Yes, we can change our mind and transform our life. But we can also recognize that we are working with the consequences of past agreements in our present state of mind. By removing old habits that amass toxins in the body, mind, spirit and emotional bodies we begin to express ourselves in healthy ways. Living consciously allows us to understand our thoughts, perceptions, agreements and action can either break down our optimum health or achieve it. Recognizing we are not our past, we can stop adding to our toxic burden. Forgiveness is a key factor in letting the detoxification process clear out old agreements and start building new healthier expressions of T.H.I.S. Grace and gratitude begins to add to a healthier mindset.
When we understand what thoughts, for us (it is unique for each person) are toxic we can begin to add new healthier thoughts to our emotional diet. For instance anger can be healthy, or it can be a toxin depending on the user. Yes, at GreenMountain Enrichment and Empowerment Center we see emotions as tools, but used improperly they can cause unwanted damage, like using a jack hammer to fix a windowpane. We achieve success when we use the right tool for the right job.
Our body is a very complex system. To maintain optimum health, for example, being aware of how foods interact with our unique system is to understand what foods are good for us individually. For instance one person may love peanuts and crave them from time to time as a way to get essential nutrients the body needs. While another person may die from eating a single peanut. Each person is uniquely different, and self-knowledge gives you the awareness of your uniqueness as an expression of T.H.I.S.
The first step is to recognize what is, and what is not working for you. The next step is to accept what is, and begin to address what isn’t working, while giving deep gratitude for what is.
Living Consciously allows you to become aware and make choices based on what is best for your unique self-support system.
Our emotional body affects our physical body. The physical body affects our emotional body and so on with T.H.I.S. We are beginning to see a trend with a select few elite cancer centers around the USA who recognize cancer can be affected by emotional and spiritual health. We know that if we are emotionally “stressed” it can cause physical stress, etc.
At GreenMountain Enrichment and Empowerment Center we teach through our classes that ego allows us to decipher signposts to reveal what needs to be healed. We give people tools to understand the signals of emotions, and feelings sensed in the body. These tools allow us to decipher information that cannot be spoken. We use reality checks and perspective checks to test the validity of the information deciphered. In my opinion we as a race have a lot to learn about being human.
