Awaken the Healer

Listen

Listen, Listen to your body...

Our when our daughter was just three months old we could see that she was really talking to us. She would move her hands and arms and "coo" and sometimes cry to get our attention. She was communicating with us how she knew how to do at the time. Your body is no different. It talks to you constantly. It talks though shivers, headaches, all types of pain, butterflies, belly aches, congestion, colds, sore throats, and much, much more... In fact all symptoms are actually just communication from your body. It is a result of your body trying to tell you that you need to look with in and understand what emotions you need to face. What changes in what you are doing in life need to be changed. Who are you holding feelings inside against. Those repressed feelings and that lack of forgiveness leads to much communication from the body. Releasing those feelings and truly forgiving leads to a quiet body and health.

Protection Mechanism

Many times you will find that the body is trying to protect you from something that it perceives as a physical or emotional danger to you, or feels you are not ready to face consciously.

Case in point:

I was working with a wonderful woman who is very happily married. She had very strong sinus and asthma issues. The cause was the protection mechanism kicking in to have an excuse not to do things with her mother, who would call her and ask to do things all the time. The daughter did not mind doing things with mom once and a while, but not all the time. So her body would produce symptoms to give her an excuse for getting out of doing things with her mother. If she was sick she did not have to go out with mom all the time. It was protecting mom's feelings from being hurt, and allowing my client not to do the behavior of going out all the time that she did not want to do. Consciously she had no idea this was happening. When she decided to face the emotion and gently tell mom the truth that now she was married and they could not go out as much. Mom was ok with it and her symptoms (communication form the body) ceased. It ceased because she did not cover up the communication with prescription drugs, but instead listened to what her body was trying to tell her.

Discovery of symptoms being communication

The Awaken the Healer Within process was developed by my very good friend Paul Aurand. Paul got the truth about healing of from talking with the higher selves of his clients. They let him know that illness is really just communication from the body.

This is quite possibly the most profound discovery in medical history. Yet not many people know of this discovery yet as Paul is not an MD. I also am not an MD. Nor would I go to medical school if it were offered to me for free. Why?

Treating the symptom is not the cure

See for the last few hundred years here in America doctors are taught in medical school. Most doctors practice what they have learned in medical school. They are taught to diagnose a patients "condition" based on past patients or on what they have learned in school. They then treat the symptom of the condition with prescription drugs. If they get the symptom to quit they consider the treatment a success. The "condition" to begin with still exists. Just the physical part of what was bothering the patient is gone (for the time being) by treating the patient with drugs. There are a large amount of different drugs to quiet the symptoms of almost any condition a person can have. Just turn on the TV (here in America) at any given time wait a few minutes and the drug commercials are there in your face telling you how they are what you need to feel better.

Now here is the big problem:

The symptoms are actually communication from the body trying to get the self to stop running away from what ever emotional or physical issues they are not facing. Most of the this comes down to a lack of forgiveness for others and your self. Many times the protective part of us does not want us to know what is bothering us and is happy to allow the self to take drugs. The body however is not ok with this. When you cover up this communication from the body with drugs, it either gets louder or the symptoms will switch to a new communication, or as most doctors call them, symptoms. May times this new communication is much more louder (severe) than the first condition. When a doctor chases a condition and can not seem to get it to quiet they label them a chronic pain or chronic illness. In all actually it is the body not giving up on trying to get you to listen to it and make the changes you need to make not cover up the communication with drugs.

Eric B. Robins, M.D. is a board certified urologist and surgeon from Rancho Palos Verdes, California. Dr. Robbins and Master Stephen Co wrote a book called "Your Hands Can Heal You." (I highly recommend reading this wonderful book!)

Dr. Robins and Master Co have been on TV in California a few times now for the amount of success they have had in helping people through health issues.

Dr. Robins speaks frequently on emotions and their role in health issues.

Many times as I previously said "that protective part of us is at work and doesn't feel you are ready to face the emotions that are repressed." See what Dr. Robbins has to say about this below:

Dr. Eric B. Robbins:

Many times the initial traumas are so deeply buried inside the body that they cannot be easily accessed by the conscious mind. When I was going through therapy, it took me 6 months to even get in touch with my deeper emotional pain and with the early memories that caused it. For the first 6 months of therapy, anytime I got close to the pain I’d either fall asleep or “check out” and disassociate. My point here is that oftentimes patients will present with a physical disease or illness, and not be consciously aware of any emotions that could be contributing to this. I can’t tell you how many times I’ll work with a patient in the office and I’ll tell them, “Yes, you have a real physical ailment, but this is probably secondary to stress or negative emotions which have physicalized in your body.” And the patient will say, “But I’m not aware of any stress or negative emotions in my life right now,” and I will reply,

“If you were consciously aware of the stress or emotions, you wouldn’t have the disease. Your body is doing such a good job of keeping the emotions or traumatic memories deeply buried that they are not coming to conscious awareness.

Robins Rule---“the presence of the disease you have PRESUPPOSES the existence of these emotional issues”.

Dr. Robins has wrote a section in a book that has just been released. The book is called "The Heart of Healing." I am very excited to read this new book. below is an e-mail from Dr. Robins about this exciting new book.

Hello All,

I recently wrote a chapter for a remarkable book called "The Heart of
Healing," and the process catalyzed for me some profound new ideas on the effect of emotions on health. I truly believe this is the best thing I have ever written and in fact, have been out giving talks based on this topic and audiences have been transfixed.

This book gathers, in one volume, powerful strategies for getting well
and staying vibrantly healthy, from some of the greatest figures in the
healing world today (I was of course honored to be included). Concise chapters by Deepak Chopra, Dean Ornish,
Joan Borysenko, Andrew Weil, Bernie Siegel, Larry Dossey, and many
others, explain their most powerful ideas. The book also unearths many
little-known but powerful therapies from new, previously-unpublished
practitioners, with approaches that give relief to people who have not
been helped by conventional medicine--and it gathers the most advanced
thinking about the future of medicine. On the book's web site at
http://www.NewHealer.com, you can read sample chapters, view the table
of contents, and also see some of the co-authors' heart-felt
inspirational quotes about the healing journey. All royalties from this
book go to charity, and by purchasing this book you make a holiday
donation to a worthy cause.

If you are so interested, you can purchase this book off of amazon.com. It would make a great gift. I have been so enamored over what the other healers have written, and learned more than I ever hoped to.

Namaste, and wishing you all a wonderful holiday season and a happy, healthy New Year.

Eric Robins
