Revision as of 06:50, 9 June 2024

While I have gotten sick and injured along the way, every issue since getting out of the infantry in 1987 over the past 37 years (as of this writing) has been resolved without the use of alternative medical remedies (chiropractors, salves, herbs, lotions, supplements, tinctures, essential oils, etc.), or so much as seeing a doctor.

Because I'd grown up doing much hiking and camping, spent three years of my early teens hitchhiking back and forth across the US, and then, as an adult, spent 14 months out-of-doors on a walk-about across the US with no credit cards and no cash in my pockets; I've often not been near medical facilities when sick or injured. That, coupled with being self-employed since getting out of the military, and so never a part of any health plan(s) or able to afford (and/or not wanting to spend the money) to see doctors; I've been shown through all manner of self-experimentation the knack of going inside and listening to my body for ways and means of self-treatment. Usually, that acute injury specific treatment comes at that moment, but, there have been times when it comes in advance of injury! I've often noted but not realized the significance of some tidbit of knowledge, only to have an aha-moment later when illness or injury occurred. Someday, that treatment might require going the "standard" care route for one acute injury thing or another, but that's not been the case for nearly four decades so far. This "going inside" is something anyone can cultivate in themselves.

The links below represent a sampling of multiple hundreds of hours of watching (conservatively) a thousand videos over a couple of decades trying to find words to share these concepts. They embody clearly worded principles I gleaned and have implemented (more of some aspects, less of others [except when experimenting on myself to resolve health related issue for others]), and are provided here so you have them in mind to aid you as you pursue your own self-realizations (and to save you from having to spend the same amount of time pouring over so many videos like I've had to do).

Of the two broad categories of injury, acute and chronic, the links address the latter, the chronic. Why? Because, while the acute is usually evident and so can be dealt with at that moment on a case by case basis, the chronic injury is not readily apparent. By its nature, the chronic injury creeps up on you, and so might not be recognized before it's too late.".

I see the selected links as important and applicable for this reason: they represent the basis of a number of recurring complimentary dietary general principles I've noted. Examples being, 1. "The body, fed only what, and in the form, nature's God intended, has the building blocks required to self-heal, and then is superbly equipped to do so"; 2. "Unless and until the matter of one's diet is addressed, virtually all attempts to maintain health or heal are reduced to mere vain pursuits - only to have to be repeated, ad nauseum" (pun, not intended); (to wit), 3. "If whatever one is eating (and/or not eating) doesn't keep them well, then whatever they're eating (and/or not eating) is incorrect in either their understanding and/or their application"; and, conversely, 4. "Whatever one is eating (and/or not eating) to make oneself well, should, by definition, be what keeps them well."

There are, of course, exceptions to the above; but, again, general principles...


It has been said that, "One's life choices (which include one's diet) are not for their benefit alone, but effect, and, therefore, ought be made with the great-grandchildren in mind." (Or, words to that effect.)
