MELDING MIND AND BODY: NOW IT’S UP TO YOU

When the examination is complete and all the impressions and data have been collected and evaluated, I sit down with a patient to begin summing up. The patient is given copies of my findings and impressions, test results and other information. We review the material, and I explain the various options or programs I have worked out to enhance their health. We meet again to review their progress and fine-tune their health program, if necessary. My friends, you’re at the same point as my patients: you’re at a crucial turning point in your life. You’ve learned about your “doctor within,” the immune system, Super Foods, affirmations, stress handling, “wogging” and more. You’ve digested the ins and outs of the Immune For Life program. I’ve given you the information: the rest is up to you.

I could write a library of books on the immune system and the “doctor within.” But all the words, arguments, principles, lists and diagrams in the world won’t do a bit of good until you decide to take the steps necessary to protect and strengthen your “doctor within.” I’ve given you the pieces; it’s up to you to assemble them into a beautiful picture of lifelong health and happiness.

Yes, you may have to make many changes in your diet, your outlook on life, your exercise habits and so on, and that can be intimidating. I tell my patients to take it one day at a time. For example, every time you sit down to eat, think about how food helps or hurts you. Are there Super Foods on your plate? Which items should be removed from your diet? Which healthy foods can you eat instead? When you feel yourself becoming angry, ask yourself if this blowup is absolutely necessary for your safety and well-being. Review your progress before going to bed at night. Have you improved your diet? Are you becoming more of a stress handler? Did you exercise vigorously today? If you’ve made strides today, pat yourself on the back. If not, don’t get upset. Remind yourself that the changes I’m advising you to make are vital, and think of ways to make tomorrow a positive day for your health and happiness.
