Health & Spirituality in the New Age
Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about how to make community structures work. I’ve been reflecting and meditating on the many possibilities we could create, trying pull together the common limitations and complaints people generally have about our world and how it currently functions, and then find a common thread.
I believe that if you did have a tumor, the last thing you would want to do is crush that tumor between two plates, because that would spread it. – Dr. Sarah Mybill, General Practitioner (taken from the documentary trailer below) I think if a woman from the age of 50 has a mammogram every year, or every two years, she’s going to get breast cancer as a direct result from that – Dr. Patrick Kingsley, Clinical Ecologist (take from the documentary trailer below) Breast screening, also known as a mammogram, is a regular examination of breasts in order to detect breast cancer in its early stages. According to the Centers For Disease Control (CDC), it’s the most effective way to detect breast cancer, as […] Read More
Pain from osteoarthritis leaves many debilitated due to stiff and swollen joints. While prescriptions are readily available for osteoarthritis sufferers, they often leave patients with the choice of living between two worlds: If they take prescription pills, they may live with less physical pain yet suffer from the wide array of side effects that pharmaceuticals are equipped with. If they choose not to take prescriptions due to side effects, they will live in the chronic physical pain caused by osteoarthritis. Basically, they are forced to choose between one form of pain or another. However, this may not be the case for much longer.According to a study conducted by researchers from the University of Nottingham UK, alongside researchers from the University of Pittsburgh and Virginia Commonwealth University in the US, a […] Read More
What is the most divisive topic you can bring up? Religion? Politics? Sports? I would venture to guess that vaccines are right up there with religion, politics and sports as the most passionately argued about topics that end up dividing otherwise friendly people into camps. Those who are listened to are either passionately and vehemently pro-vaccine or anti-vaccine. The people in the grey area tend to be trampled on, disregarded and dismissed. Allegations From Credible Sources Perhaps the divisiveness of the topic is why the mainstream media has largely disregarded the revelations of the so-called CDC whistle-blower, Dr. William Thompson, Senior Scientist at the CDC. Dr. Thompson has asserted that, while employed at the CDC, he and other CDC scientists and top officials hid data […] Read More
To demonstrate the true power of our thoughts, let us consider the placebo effect. The Power of Belief and the Placebo Effect The belief that you are getting help, such as a treatment for depression or cancer, can actually cause your condition to improve. It might be easier to see how placebos influence depression with its more direct connection to thoughts, but it is also true that thoughts have an effect on something as concrete as the growth of cancer cells or blood pressure. A review of relevant literature by Straus and von Ammon Cavanaugh (1996) show how placebo effects are widespread, known in medication, psychotherapy and even surgery! Interestingly, it is not only the patient’s but also of the physician’s belief that effects how […] Read More
You’ve seen it thousands of times on Facebook and other social media outlets, there is even a song on the radio about it! Selfies have become a huge trend in social media and psychiatrists and mental health workers are linking them to mental health conditions related to narcissism and a person’s obsession with their looks. According to psychiatrist Dr David Veal: “Two out of three of all the patients who come to see me with Body Dysmorphic Disorder since the rise of camera phones have a compulsion to repeatedly take and post selfies on social media sites.” “Cognitive behavioural therapy is used to help a patient to recognize the reasons for his or her compulsive behaviour and then to learn how to moderate it,” he […] Read More
Source: Green Med Info If you have been following our advocacy work on cancer, particularly in connection with the dark side of breast cancer awareness month, you know that we have been calling for the complete reclassification of some types of ‘breast cancer’ as benign lesions, e.g. ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), as well as pointing out repeatedly that x-ray based breast screenings are not only highly carcinogenic but are also causing an epidemic of “overdiagnosis” and “overtreatment” in US women, with an estimated 1.3 million cases in the past 30 years alone. This week, a National Cancer Institute commissioned panel’s report published in JAMA online confirmed that we all – public and professionals alike – should stop calling low-risk lesions like DCIS and high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN) ‘cancer.’ There are wide-reaching implications to this recommendation, […] Read More
By Dr. Bernarr, D.C., D.D. YOUR BODY DOES THE RIGHT THING WHEN YOU HAVE BREAST CANCER Our bodies always do the right thing. We are passengers on the train of life, not the conductors. Since life began on earth, our God within, our inherent intelligence within each cell of our bodies, has learned to make the optimum adaptation and resolution, to any problem to which our bodies are subjected. Whatever stresses our bodies presently have, our ancestors have successfully learned how to successfully cope with such, previously. It is already built into our genes, our chromosomes and our DNA. Your inherent intelligence, if it chooses to produce breast cancer, it does so to protect you. This breast cancer or whatever your pathology or symptomatology, helps […] Read More
