Ancient Indian Holistic Wisdom: Treating the Root Cause of All Dis-ease
by Vera Kaur
The human body is a
latticework of energies,
vibrating at different
frequencies, encompassing the
physical, mental, emotional
and spiritual aspects. It has
been perfectly created to
function optimally, providing
we observe the laws.
When we divert from these laws through
breathing polluted air, eating food far
from its natural state, drinking chemical-laden
water, ingesting toxic medication,
smoking cigarettes, drinking alcohol, using
inorganic body and household products,
being exposed to electromagnetic pollution
and even thinking negative thoughts,
energy imbalances result within our
physical, mental, emotional and spiritual
body, creating dis-ease.
The symptoms of our dis-ease are merely
the body’s innate method of correcting the
imbalances within, to allow us to return to
our natural state of wholeness.When we
attempt to treat our dis-ease through the
administration of medication, we are merely
temporarily suppressing the symptoms.
We are not addressing the root cause of
our dis-ease. The medication causes further
imbalances, disrupting the body’s natural
immune system, which is rarely given the
opportunity to fulfill its role.
Over a period of time, our initial dis-ease
re-appears with more serious symptoms,
our body, once again is attempting to correct the imbalances within, to restore
the healthy flow of energies. Our new
symptoms are diagnosed as a new dis-ease,
stronger medication is administered and
the vicious cycle continues.
The traditional energy healers of India had
a wealth of knowledge on how to diagnose,
treat, and cure dis-ease by natural methods,
and through the generations, a great deal of
this ancient wisdom has been kept alive.
Ancient Self-healing practices include:
Acupressure
Diagnosing and treating the root cause
of dis-ease, by applying intermittent
pressure on areas of the hands and feet
that correspond to specific glands, organs,
nerves, etc. This regulates the vital energy
within the body part, empowering it to
function optimally.
Mudras
Balancing the vital energy throughout the
body by joining different combinations of
the fingers and thumbs. This allows the
elements to regain equilibrium to encourage
our body’s natural healing response.
Pranayama
Controlling the breath by different
techniques, to increase the vital energy
within the body. Our breath is the life force
that flows through each cell of our body,
and by expanding our life force, we can
harmonize with the life force of the universe.
Meditation
Quiet the body and mind through
awareness, to enter a deep state of
tranquillity. This allows us to re-connect
with our true selves, to release negative thought processes and deep-rooted
emotional pain to experience inner peace
and contentment.
Chanting
Repeating a mantra (word or sound) to
detach from the external world, bring
our awareness to the present moment, to
experience the essence of our being. This
resonates with the physical, mental and
spiritual aspects of our body to awaken our
latent healing energies.
Chromotherapy
Applying specific colors to the body to
heal imbalances. Each color possesses its
own unique energy vibration and carries
its own healing property. Color can be
absorbed by our body through our chakras
by sunlight, water, the earth’s natural
stones or visualization.
Crystals
Placing the earth’s stones within the body’s
magnetic field, to restore the flow of
healthy positive energy within and around
the body, by removing toxic, negative
energy. Each crystal possesses a unique chemical make-up that determines its
healing property and appearance.
Barefoot Walking
Walking on natural earth, barefoot to
draw upon the unique energy source
that lies within the earth. The earth is
composed of minerals and its energies
resonate perfectly with the body’s energies.
Walking barefoot charges the entire being
with the vital healing force of the universe.
Yoga Asanas
Physical postures, each of which has specific
physical, mental, emotional and spiritual
benefits to unite the body, mind and soul.
As our physical body becomes relaxed,
flexible and open, this promotes a similar
effect on our mental and emotional body.
Healing Visualizations
Creating positive images of healing within
the mental body, which allows the emotional
body to respond by becoming receptive to
healing, which subsequently initiates the
healing process in the physical body. Our
body and mind are intricately connected,
which allows our thoughts to have a direct
influence on our physical health.
In today’s fast-paced world, as we strive
to create balance within our bodies and
harmony within our lives, we can benefit
enormously from these ancient selfhealing
practices to instill physical, mental,
emotional and spiritual wellbeing.
