It seems that there are as many
opinions on what is healthy and what is not as there are people who speak or
write on the subject. Most of it seems to make sense – at least in the moment.
So how can you determine which is right and which is wrong for you? The answer has four
parts:
1. Don’t
just “believe” anything or anyone,
2. Test and
evaluate everything,
3. Prove it
beyond reasonable doubt, and,
4. Continue to be skeptical, even after you have proven it.
Fortunately,
our creator built some very effective testing capabilities right into us. We
have come fully equipped to naturally know what is good for us and what is not.
The bad news is that most people have un-learned how to recognize and trust
these inherent abilities. The good news is that it is easy to learn some simple
techniques which apply them.
Did you ever
wonder how grazing animals know to avoid poisonous plants such as nightshade,
rhubarb leaves, etc. yet they will nibble on every edible plant right up to the very edge of the
toxic plant? It is because they have not forgotten to “feel” and interpret the
electromagnetic field
that each plant radiates. Here is a brief explanation about that:
Quantum
physicists tell us that there really is no such thing as “matter” as we
think of it. Although knowing this still doesn’t enable us to walk through
trees, in reality all a tree or any other object consists of are space and
energy fields. The energy just happens to be so tightly focused and selective
that other energy fields are not able to easily pass through it. It is like
attempting to press like fields of very powerful magnets together. Even though
it seems that there is nothing between them, it is extremely difficult to do.
Forcing them together
With magnets
it is very easy to notice and identify the magnetic field, even though it is
invisible to humans. What is not so easily noticed is that everything has
a composite electromagnet field. It is because of these fields that our bodies
can detect whether or not something benefits or harms us.
Few people
have managed to retain the wisdom they were born with to naturally know what is
best for them. There are simple techniques that will amplify our awareness and
enable us to make good choices. Following are
portions of a reprint of an article by Dr. Regan Golob explaining one technique
called “Applied Kinesiology (a.k.a. "Muscle Testing"):”
“…
Kinesiology has been around since the ancient
Egyptians, and is derived from ancient Chinese systems of acupuncture and the
energy flow of the body through the ductwork of the meridian systems. In Western
medicine, applied kinesiology has been adapted and developed by an osteopathic
physician, Dr. Frank Chapman, and several [others] … Kinesiology is based on the
discovery that muscle weakness can be caused by any stress in the body -
chemical, physical or emotional. The stress overrides the body's priority and
allows the testing muscle to weaken. …
When performing a muscle test, be sure the
person being tested holds their arm straight out from the shoulder with the
elbow locked in and the hand open. This is so the person does not bring in more
than one muscle group. This test is really not a muscle strength test but one of
neurological function. So you are looking for how fast they respond to the
command of "Hold" at the same time you push down behind the wrist with a steady,
gentle pressure. What you are looking for is an immediate strong lock-in for a
positive response. If this test is negative, the person's arm will give to the
pressure.
One can use this to find anything from a sore
joint to a nutritional imbalance. So once you find the area of weakness, you
start looking for what will make that area test or lock-in strong. How does it
work to just hold the product in the person's other hand against their stomach?
The body senses the magnetic field of the product (yes, even through the bottle)
and that will change the energy within the body. Remember, the challenge is to
be creative without being judgmental. The more you get your conscious mind in
the way, the less accurate your tests will be. Most of the time I just pick up a
product to test without even looking at it, so I can stay completely out of it.
There is much more to applied kinesiology. If
you have further interest I recommend the book, "Touch
For Health" by Dr. John Thie. Muscle testing can be a valuable tool to
enhance your health and knowledge of your body's needs, including supplement
choices.”
My personal favorite resource for understanding
and learning how to implement the
amazing capabilities of muscle testing is the book
Power vs Force
by David R. Hawkins (see link at page bottom).
By learning, then applying muscle testing and other simple testing
methods you will be assured that your decisions about specific
foods, activities, medicines, and even life choices will support your perfect
health goals.
