Beschreibung

What influence do we have on our health? This book arose out of my own incurable illness, while an alternative practitioner brought me back to life so casually. That made me wonder and so began this path of healing, because we are all more ill than healthy. Real health has little to do with what we understand by health. Somehow the earlier knowledge of healing has been lost, so that we can hardly help ourselves. Yet this valuable knowledge is still there, albeit scattered in books, films and on the internet. This forgotten knowledge actually enables us to heal ourselves and thus build up our health, which (finally) allows us to live a healthy and timeless life again until the last day. Everything in this book is set up in such a way that we can apply the therapies without deep knowledge and thus get our health back year after year and stay healthy with it - forever.

Leseprobe

The older weget,

the less we want to growold

[We do not grow old; we get sick]

Diseases are hardly ever a little morecomplex,

they are just labelled asincurable

[Everything has a cause and everything has a solution]

Illness is only a lack ofhealth,

like darkness is only a lack oflight

[We promote health, but do not fight diseases]

How our healthreturns

PROLOGUE

There is good and extensive literature available today that covers pretty much every health issue, but my friend Alex encouraged me to write this book, a book that describes all the little, inconspicuous things that improve our health, whose value we misjudge in our extremely fast-paced life, and thereby despise. Yet, these very things, often overlooked and seemingly inconsequential, can have long-lasting effects and are vital for our physical and mental recovery.

The aim of the book is to offer a knowledge base that we can apply in (almost) all situations in order to make life a bit easier, while keeping a little of our independence from all the experts around us.

The goal here is to get healthy because we are all more or less sick. Of course, we have almost infinite explanations about why we are not, but we will still see that health – as we generally understand it – has hardly anything to do with health in an absolute sense.

Health is our greatest asset; unfortunately, we only notice this when it is dwindling and we simply can no longer do what we used to. Then we run to the doctor and hope to be healthy the next day – it is the same with me.

The development of this book began from my own incurable illness many years ago. Official medicine could not help me, so I had to deal with the grim reality of an early death. An alternative practitioner who came out of nowhere saved me, as if by a miracle, and made me fit for work again 4 days later.

We hear about such miracles again and again and now I have learned enough to realise that not only do miracles have to happen, but that sound knowledge can also be helpful, because our health experts simply know far too little.

Knowledge from different fields flows together in this book. This includes, of course, information from the field of official medicine, which keeps us alive in emergencies. Building on this, we deal extensively with naturopathy and its great possibilities, which will give us back our health for the rest of our lives.

We also want to bring spiritual healing into the mix because it represents the strongest force, again and again, casting a spotlight on miracle healings that we do not really want to believe – thereby the spirit rules over the body. And so, we will still see that our health can only fully develop when our consciousness leaves the ego level once and for all and ascends into the world of spirit.

Our appearance is also a reflection of our state of health. If I am healthy, then I look good. Most of the time we are unhealthy, but we think we are and wonder why we are looking so old.

And now enjoy reading this book.

How our health returns

STOCKTAKING HEALTH

HEALTH IS DECLINING

We constantly read and hear it in the media that our health has been improving for decades and we are therefore living longer and getting older and older.

More and more clever diagnostics discover more and more potential to regain health, but also the tireless work to finally defeat cancer, give us the hope to finally become healthy all over again, until the moment that we have our own cancer and the cycle of chemo, radiation and operations begins.

When a cold makes me bedridden and I have to go to the doctor in the morning because I need a sick note, then I see the reality of medical miracles. It hurts me deeply when I see all the catastrophic clinical pictures in the waiting room and I can be sure that these people will come out just as they went in. ‘Again he has pumped me full of cortisone, I can't stand it any longer,’ said a patient in the waiting room recently. A year before, another tearstained patient said: ‘I don't care if I don’t have an appointment, I'm staying here until I’m seen.’

When I walk through the cemeteries and look at the ‘average’ life expectancy, I just don't see this promised longevity. Dying appears to start at about 45 years of age, hits a peak at about 70 years, only to flatten out again decisively after that. Pension funds nowadays expect an average of 90 years, but in the cemeteries, the average is under 70. It almost looks as if we are paying too much for 20 years. How can that be?

Health has a low priority in our society; there are so many young ill people who are unlikely to recover if there is no fundamental change in the current healing strategy for people. Although many things are so obvious, taking appropriate action and providing relief to those who suffer seems to be a constant problem for our health industry. It’s not just the much-needed healing we are having to wait for, but also the responsibility for this healing is still being passed on to our genes, to our parents, even our grandparents. Not to mention all the many incurable illnesses that exist, from which, by definition, we cannot hope to be rescued.

On closer inspection, healing seems to me to be almost a matter of luck, according to the motto: ‘Unfortunately, I have bad luck, because my mother and grandmother died of intestinal cancer, so I’ll probably also die of it. At least I have a tendency, called a disposition in medicine, to fall ill with this disease and, consequently, to die of it.’

Do we not feel powerless and perhaps a little angry that God has put us into this world in such a vulnerable state?

Who actually has the right to classify a disease as incurable? What are these institutions that are allowed to say things just like that, in order to print it anywhere on paper, so that we humans accept it as a God-given truth and lie down to die?

Again and again, the lack of knowledge in all areas of the health system is striking. Physical discomfort is often diagnosed incorrectly while actual emergency situations are either dismissed as ‘all fine’ or are not recognised at all, which is always the case when we run from Pontius to Pilate and no one can find anything wrong with us, so that at some point we already believe ourselves to be confused.

After realising that many people were healthier and more powerful than me, I was convinced that there must be rules, that my sad state could not be God-given. So, I started to read books on this subject and tried to build my health up with simple therapies. Although these therapies all had a degree of logic to them, it took me a while before I made my breakthrough. Then, from one day to another, I felt a little fresher somehow and even the hair on my head appeared to grow thicker.

In the meantime, my interest in the subject and my wish to have an official healing permit has meant I am now an alternative practitioner. The most loyal and resilient person that I test is myself, as I am always willing to try some absurd therapies in the view of normal mortals.

Until today, my health successes have not ended. I recognise this outwardly in many small details and in my increased strength and endurance during sports.

My somewhat delayed mental activity has increased again, and my younger appearance has given me joy.

Being close to success now, I deal almost exclusively with the regeneration of the body. I consider it to be an area that fills surprisingly little space in the literature, but it promises unbelievable success for all of us personally, because regeneration actually means that we get a little fitter every year and, at some point, we will even begin to look slightly younger.

HOW DO WE RECOGNISE OLD AGE?

We say he or she has grown old, but if we had to describe the small, individual changes in words, we would have to briefly consider what actually motivates us to use the word ‘old’. We would probably soon get the idea ourselves that ageing is actually only a process of the body decaying and so it has less to do with the ageing that exists in our imagination. Weird, isn’t it?

What is still the attraction of old age, to know that we are all degenerating, simply falling apart?

Several people know this, many people assume it and find ageing anything but funny, but unfortunately, they are still too far away conceptually to ask the all-important question of why. So why do we degenerate?

Ageing means that the functions of the body are visibly reduced. Only rarely do these functions disappear completely. Close up we can see it: missing hair, white hair, incorrect posture, a collapsed body, a hunchback, missing teeth, receding gums, too big ears, noses, hands and feet, pale skin, age spots on the hands, arms, face and décolleté. The buttocks become flat and lowered, women's breasts too, and bloated bellies complete the picture of the figure's derailments. Wrinkles all over the body, the white in the eyes has gone, an ‘old’ murmuring voice, a hearing aid, apathy, shortness of breath during light exertion, narrow-mindedness, and missing facial expressions. But above all, I recognise that the joy of life is missing in people. Actually, glasses are also part of it – they should also be a sign of age, but even small children wear glasses. How can we explain that?

Where exactly is the wisdom of age that we can discover here? Hence, we should really avoid ageing, wherever possible. Our body should always be the most important thing to us in our stay here on Earth. No job or any other life pursuit should be allowed to cause us (excessive) degeneration. Youthfulness is the joy of life, everything else is a compromise that costs us our health and later, our life.

Ageing is only a collective term for bodily decay, the excessive degeneration of our body. The word ageing only came into our lives because we no longer believe in our immortality. We no longer believe that we are infinitely more than just repair-intensive robots.

So, it was said in the time of the ‘Golden Age’, before the decisive ‘fall of mankind’ many thousands of years ago, that none of the people suffered from the infirmity of old age, that the day passed quietly and happily, that people lived equally with each other, and then when the time came for them to go, they simply passed over, in a gentle and soft sleep, to the other side.

WOMEN LIVE SEVEN YEARS LONGER

Often, we hear that women live, on average, 7 years longer than men and that this is a privilege of women. And this seems to be the case; women are often the ones who are left in a relationship, even when their male partners are a little older.

I think no one has the official answer as to why this is. Alternative practitioners seem to know more and name menstruation as being the main reason for this phenomenon, because the ejection of 20 to 50 millilitres of blood after a monthly cycle would correspond to a small bloodletting, which allows the body to get rid of all the bad substances and old burdens of about 40 years of its life on Earth.

This downright ingenious idea of menstruation was taken over in the Middle Ages and practised as bloodletting on the rich, as they also struggled with heart and circulation diseases hundreds of years ago. Today, it is out of fashion, only alternative practitioners offer it partially.

But there are other reasons for a longer life too; because the general way of life is also decisive. Unfortunately, many people misjudge this and so we do not use our potential. Only a few decades ago, men tended to live in a rather excessive way, usually at the expense of their health. To take time off from your working life, as it is easy to do today, was seen as a sign of weakness. Furthermore, they rightly feared they wouldn’t be taken back into the workforce after a break and would drift off into long-term unemployment.

Since then, the world has changed rapidly and now the behaviour of men and women has become similar. It almost seems that the classic housewife is only found in rural areas. Career men are rare to find due to a lack of alternatives, so the professional life has been devalued and become a mere source of income, and thus fallen behind our private life. Private life is now becoming more important, which is probably a new experience for men.

In contrast, women today are more exposed to a more stressful life as they balance their work and family, so women’s health has become tense and men’s relaxed, so it is likely that, on average, we will see no significant difference in the life expectancies of men and women over the next few years, unless we approach health completely differently.

WHAT CAN WE DO?

We are now doing a lot for our health. We are working on our nutrition, avoiding stress, going to yoga and we have even started doing some sports again. And when all this becomes too much for us, we tell ourselves that we are not young anymore and tend to give up again because we think it all has little impact anyway.

The issue of health is fuzzy, no matter how we approach the subject. The health freak dies before us, the chain smoker after us. Somehow, we are going around in circles, not understanding the rules. There is much discussion and writing on health – it’s a growing, billion-dollar market, a bastion of the economy. Diseases are exploding, especially cancer, as a lingering warning to us, but there is no turnaround in sight. Why not?

There is much confused reporting about healing, so it took me a while to separate the wheat from the chaff and take the right steps at the right time. Mostly, success arises from our own suffering, in cases where illness almost wiped us off the planet – and it was the same with me. Strangely enough, whenever we are forced to think, to decide on whether to live or die, we develop the right ideas to free ourselves from our decline.

If there is one thing I have learnt in my life, it is there is nothing more important than having a healthy body, and only that makes life fun. Surprisingly, at that point, we don't care about ageing, because we act the same way we did when we were young – we just live our lives full of energy, full of curiosity.

In reality, we are usually far away from a healthy body. We do not even have a concrete idea of what healthy means at all. Are we healthy when the doctor says we are healthy? Or are we simply healthy when we feel healthy? By redefining not-sick as healthy at some point in time, we have clean forgotten what the original meaning of health was.

Thereby it is quite simple: we are healthy when we look 30 but we are actually 60 – and feel the same way. End of story. Health means nothing else other than: to have the power of youth and to still look as fresh. The reason we are so far from this today is simply that we have aged ourselves by mistake. The decline of we humans is therefore not a law of nature, it is purely homemade, made by ourselves.

Restoring this state of youth is anything but easy. Nevertheless, there is an unexpected number of 100-year-olds who already have a good idea of how the game works, as was once shown in a documentary on television. New knowledge and a renewed motivation to maintain health seem to be building and strengthening this trend. Moreover, ageing cannot even be proven scientifically.

Indeed, there are a number of approaches to what our mortality might ultimately be attached to, but these ideas have only short half-lives; so, after a few years, no one wants to hear them. So, it remains as it always has – no serious scientist can define ageing and it seems that our potential for good health is much higher than we generally think.

After achieving remarkable success with my modest activities, I would like to share the good news. I am certainly not interested in eternal life, but ‘only’ in a healthy life until the last day – a life without diseases, a life of health.

The German book, ‘! Stopp Die Umkehrung des Alterungsprozesses’ (STOP! Reversal of the ageing process) by Andreas Campobasso, which I got to read 10 years ago, left me speechless. He already had the knowledge that I was still searching for – man does not age, they die from their diseases. It is a popular scientific book and highly recommended, see the bibliography. For many years, I’d had my doubts about whether I would be able to gain from that. Today, almost by accident, I have found a very similar way for myself and, hopefully, for many others.

PARAGONS OF HEALTH – YOUNG PEOPLE

Purely by chance, I have noticed while travelling by train and seeing many students, mostly aged 18-30, how much loss I have driven into my body over the last few decades. So I recognise obvious points every time, like how much brighter, cleaner, smoother and firmer their skin is. Also, the hands with the mostly perfect smooth fingernails, which lie in flawless nail beds make me look wistfully. With the teeth, it is even more obvious; they are all white, flat and well-formed, standing neatly nicely side by side, embedded in light pink gums, which lie softly on the teeth, leaving no gaps. Their body weight is also remarkable, which is, on average, one-third lower than it is for the 50+ generation. Their hair is shiny, full, without any gaps or grey strands, and is worn in a manner that already pains me to see. Also, they don’t know how short-lived their happiness will be and pay far too little attention to their body. It is so unbelievable and meanwhile embarrassing to me how the condition is 30 years later.

That's exactly where I have to go, I keep thinking of this sight and try and extrapolate the progress of the last few years. Although I’ve achieved a lot for myself, I still realise that I am far from reaching my goal.

But in the meantime, I have understood that we don't have to look as sad as we do, and that encourages me to keep searching and working on my health year after year, so that maybe it will come true once again:

Look 30 when you’re actually 60.

ILLNESSES ARE OUR GREAT SORROW

WHAT IS ACTUALLY A DISEASE?

In Wikipedia we find the following explanation:

‘A disease is a particular abnormal condition that negatively affects the structure or function of all or part of an organism, and that is not due to any immediate external injury. Diseases are often known to be medical conditions that are associated with specific symptoms and signs. A disease may be caused by external factors such as pathogens or by internal dysfunctions. For example, internal dysfunctions of the immune system can produce a variety of different diseases, including various forms of immunodeficiency, hypersensitivity, allergies and autoimmune disorders.

In humans, disease is often used more broadly to refer to any condition that causes pain, dysfunction, distress, social problems, or death to the person afflicted, or similar problems for those in contact with the person. In this broader sense, it sometimes includes injuries, disabilities, disorders, syndromes, infections, isolated symptoms, deviant behaviors, and atypical variations of structure and function, while in other contexts and for other purposes these may be considered distinguishable categories. Diseases can affect people not only physically, but also mentally, as contracting and living with a disease can alter the affected person's perspective on life…’

So, what exactly is the definition of illness again?

In my opinion, a disease is a medical emergency that should never occur in our lifetime. In this way, a cold is an emergency because the question remains: How could this happen at all?

In principle, the human body is built in such a way that it should never, ever get sick; so it should always stay healthy. Nevertheless, it gets sick, and it gets sick all the time. The good Lord certainly did not want it that way.

When I look at the 60+ generation, 99 per cent of the people are sick – one in a hundred, at the most, is not sick. People don't get old, they get sick, really sick.

Why the many sick people don't recognise it as unnatural and simply accept their illnesses as ageing instead of searching for alternatives astonishes me. The functional limitations of those who are 60+ are already more than obvious. Is the belief in ageing and sickness so powerful that we just accept all the suffering without complaint? Since I turned 18 and became able to make my own decisions, I’ve been trying to get my ‘restrictions’ healed. At that time, I didn’t realise that I couldn’t succeed with the medical care at hand, but nevertheless, I never gave up.

When health shows even the slightest sign of deterioration, there is already a need for action. In every situation where the body cannot perform, we should investigate. Every degenerative change, whether wrinkles or impaired movement, is a serious issue. Every inflamed appendix is an emergency, because how could it get that far? How, indeed?

It is very likely that the intestinal area is damaged and must be treated until the whole body ‘flows’ properly again – this would also help the appendix to recover afterwards. It is not enough to cut it out and discharge the patient as if they were cured. The patient is in no way cured by this action, because he has just lost his appendix and who knows if he will ever be able to recover properly.

Just for reference: From a medical point of view, an inflamed appendix is appendicitis, an inflammation of the appendix vermiform at the end of the caecum, which actually contains a large part of our so important immune system.

Every cold poses a question about the immune system. How did the immune system become so weak that we ended up catching a cold? Could it be because the appendix is missing? A cold is actually a health catastrophe rather than a non-issue, because when the immune system is weakened, and this is the case in 99 per cent of all people, our health is already severely affected, so that we are exposed to the vortex of degeneration.

Every illness is a sign that our body is under massive attack. In old age, one disease follows another – here we can literally see our body collapsing, but most people put it down to ageing, the genes or heredity, and with that (explanation) everything seems to be okay again? Surely, we ourselves should at least draw a line between what we let pass as merely ageing and what substantially undermines our health, shouldn't we?

Even alternative practitioners will often miss this sensitive understanding, because they have got on too friendly terms with ageing.

If we want to get healthy, we need to change our perspective. Every wrinkle is one wrinkle too many. Every cold drags us down into degeneration. Hair loss is a serious disease and cancer is a failure of society as a social community.

The preservation of health should really become a philosophy that we integrate into our way of life. I use my free time to take care of my body and build it up year after year. My reward is I have my strength back and I am in good shape. Age hasn't gnawed at me for some time, a certain neutrality pervades my body today. The diseases have gone, but there is still a lot to do, there's always a lot to do, because as long as I don't look 30 yet, I still have potential and I still do not look like 30 yet.

Illness is the derailment of our health. Disease, in principle, is always a catastrophe, so it can hardly be our goal to only deal with illnesses when something breaks out again. We have to put all our energy into the healing of our body and do that repeatedly, every day – which means every day we should put our health first. In this way, we’ll journey from sick to non-sick to complete health, until we look 30 again.

We won’t need to be aware of all the ins and outs of particular diseases because we won’t get sick any longer. We will now be building up the knowledge that we need to regain and maintain health as well; we will be learning what health actually means and feels like by ourselves as we become steadily healthier.

WHY DO WE DEGENERATE?

Measured over a 24-hour day, we have a degenerative phase and a regenerative phase. In the degenerative phase we are active in life and overspend our mind and body. This costs energy which our body has to supply. Then, when we sleep at night, we have our regenerative phase, in which our body repairs itself again, creating millions of new cells and disposing of the old ones. This phase of regeneration continues through the whole night and then long into the morning - if we give the body a chance. But because, in advertising, breakfast is declared the most important meal, we squander this important potential.

Our body also degenerates when we take action in reality and want to build something for ourselves. Identification with reality is our energy problem and that is essentially what causes degeneration. Being everywhere, having friends, being popular, being important for others means that we continually give more than 100 per cent. Everything is more important than ourselves and that leads us to burn out and we grow old, according to the laws of reality. Ultimately, we give more than our body is able to give.

In the case of nutrition, apart from the extra-large helpings of food, it’s the variety of different ingredients within a single meal that is difficult to get along with. They react to each other in combination, as if we were only eating spaghetti with tomato sauce. This variety of combinations leads to unpleasant fermentation, which manifests in flatulence and farts or even diarrhoea in the intestines, which then floods the body with toxins. All the food intolerances, rashes, hay fever, neurodermatitis, arthritis and also appendicitis are exactly caused by such inflammatory processes in the intestine.

Sport, too, is taken far too seriously by many amateur athletes. When pushed to operate in the anaerobic range above 130 pulses/min, the cells can no longer be fully supplied with oxygen. This drives us into degeneration, which ultimately makes us old and sick.

In this anaerobic mode, we produce acids which then over acidify the body tissue and sometimes, after 50, heart attacks and cancer may make an appearance. Sport is, therefore, not always healthy; it can turn very quickly into the opposite. Even athletes do not live significantly longer, because the advantages of an active life are outweighed by the constant overload on their body which then leads to over-acidification.

Many people who do sport do not have the physical prerequisites to perform at the level they consider to be appropriate, but still do it and, in the medium term, have the degenerative problem of acidification.

So, before we dive into sports and put stress on our knees and muscles, it would be wise to first build up our body for a few months, according to the recipes presented here. If, however, we can't hold ourselves back, we should at least start very slowly, always listen to ourselves and move according to the rhythm of our body, never letting our pulse rate go over 130 in endurance performance – wearing a heart rate monitor at the beginning to check. Then the body can regenerate itself through sport. However, sport alone is not enough to fully regain our health, as we can see it also with sportive seniors.

By the way, a heart rate monitor is only advantageous at the beginning, to give us an idea of what our pulse is doing. In the end, it is only there to prevent overload. At some point, even without a pulse watch, we can feel where our pulse is. From that point on, it becomes more of a hindrance and then it’s time to put it down and work with our heartbeat in mind. This will actually increase our performance even further because we are then in harmony with our body. Our behaviour will tend to vary a little when running, but we should always remain in tune with our body so that, in the end, we can expect a good result.

The relationship between degeneration and regeneration is what defines our health. If the power of regeneration is less than the power of degeneration, then the body will slowly but surely degenerate in this way. But if it is the other way around, we will get a little fitter every year and at some point, ageing just seems to reverse.

I reached this conclusion purely by chance because I had tried every other possible way of getting my ailing health back on track. This went on for many years without any visible success until the day came, 8 years ago, when I felt increased energy from one day to another. At that time, I had no idea that this leap forward would be permanent, but today I can see how my health is continuing to improve bit by bit so that I can do a little extra every year. My body has relaxed and lost its old-age stiffness. My sports performance, too, is markedly stronger, with no special training, along with some rather inconspicuous characteristics, like my reduced respiratory and pulse rate, which have not been this low since my youth. My skin has become tighter and my belly flatter. Today, I am even beginning to like my reflection in the mirror, sometimes even without clothes. In short, I began to suspect that the continuous regeneration as a strategy for regaining health could be well worthwhile.

Of course, we cannot regenerate so easily overnight. To regenerate more than we degenerate, we first have to balance a few things, but naturopathy is ideally suited to help with this.

The first goal we should strive for at the very beginning is to reduce excessive degeneration from year to year until the moment we notice, to our surprise, that both our physical and mental health are on the up. Then we have done it and we’ve broken through; we’ve reached the neutral zone and are no longer harming ourselves so obviously. From that point on, the train of recovery starts.

When we are practising our health program daily, we will sometimes experience days when we think our health is going backwards. So-called retoxification, which is actually health deterioration, occurs when the body takes the dirt and poison from its depots and transports it via the blood to our kidneys in order to finally excrete it with the urine. Such days make us insecure and we could lose our nerve, but as there is nothing better and because we only can win this game through persistence, we should persist and commit to working on this regeneration for the rest of our lives.

Although, from this magical point of time, we will start to experience year-on-year health improvements, nevertheless we will never be entirely satisfied, because our successes only show us what we’ve lost over the last decades and now we want to have it back again – as soon as possible.

Regeneration thus becomes a philosophy of life that becomes more and more refined each year. It is tailored to us individually because we only do what seems right to us at that moment.

Before this period of obvious regeneration, all the deviating values in my blood work went back to normal, which, in the end, was a clear sign of body regeneration. Yet, this success didn’t result in any increased strength or better mental clarity. It was only when I definitely felt this renewed physical and mental power did I declare it to be recognisable regeneration. Nevertheless, these parameters, which mostly come from blood work, guide us in the right direction and show us that we are on track. We should persistently look to improve them, even if nothing else is happening yet.

The mind, too, can develop enormously during regeneration, even if this seems uninteresting to us from our current point of view, as we cannot yet imagine what increased brainpower looks like. What I have gained is a better and more detailed memory, which is quite remarkable because I never had this before. An increased wealth of ideas and a regained joie de vivre has given me new drive in my life and, above all, sense.

In general, we can access information and also use it more effectively. We can even master new skills faster; languages or handicrafts, for example. More remarkably, we might, for the first time, see the bigger picture and recognise completely new opportunities in our lives.

Nevertheless, it will take some effort to bring us into the regeneration mode. Bad things must leave the body and good things must go in. That's the whole secret. In the beginning, it’s more important to remove the bad things than increase our intake of the good things. Every day we collect about 0.6 grams of bad and lose the same amount of good – essentially minerals and clean body water. Over the course of an average lifespan, we lose about 15 kilograms (for a person of 75 kilograms) of these essential minerals and water. But we don’t just lose this mass of goodness, we exchange it for the bad: toxins, metals, metabolic products, mucus, inorganic materials, hence osteoporosis, hence decreasing water content in our old age. These are the substances that make us look bad, especially when we’re old. In particular, we lose vast amounts of calcium, which is mainly stored in bones, muscles, tissue, as well as teeth to neutralise the acids produced in our body caused by refined sugar, nicotine, alcohol, caffeine and animal products, such as meat, cheese and milk. These substances also come from the almost infinite psychological stress people face and the faulty metabolism of the gastrointestinal system.

By the way, milk is a calcium robber rather than a supplier of calcium, as is often claimed, and so contributes to osteoporosis, especially in women. Osteoporosis often results in artificial hip joints; the bones are hollowed out over decades until stability is finally lost and they break.

With old age, the process of decay increases disproportionately due to the dwindling resources of our body. It becomes an ever-faster spinning cycle, which makes us look really pale, especially towards the end of our lives. Yesterday we were fit as a fiddle, and tomorrow, perhaps, we’re in an old people's home.

WHY DOES A VOICE SOUND OLD?

We all know this phenomenon and it is probably one of the surest, most guaranteed signs of old age. A young voice in an old body would definitely seem suspicious to us. It would almost be like breaking the laws of the universe.

In principle, the sound is produced by the vibration of the two vocal cords. Air is pressed out of the lungs which passes through the vocal cords, forming the corresponding sounds with our mouth and palate movements. When we shout, we pump a lot of air through these vocal cords. When we whisper, then very little air is pushed through. If these vocal cords are inflamed for example, then people have a very rough voice. When we have a cold they sometimes fail completely. After a rough voice comes calm. The sound of the voice always has to do with the condition of the vocal cords. All the tissue around has unexpectedly little influence on the voice, which was the case with Bonnie Tyler, who, after a vocal cord operation, acquired a very deep, rough voice.

The typical old sound is therefore nothing more than altered vocal cords that produce this sound. And this sound only changes when the vocal cords change, that means when they are somehow damaged, coated, inflamed or when they recede (atrophy) and lose with that their elasticity.

The fact that the vocal cords suffer in old age is mainly due to the fact that we regard the mouth area as a pure supply channel. Food comes in from here and then travels down the oesophagus into the stomach. There is never any talk of anything wanting to go back here. And that's how it is, because something also wants to come out of us, but we have long forgotten it, because spitting is no longer presentable and we have already learned to suppress the reflex in childhood. ‘Don't do that’ was drilled into us the first time by our caring parents.

In our body, metabolic processes do not only take place in the stomach and intestines, they take place everywhere, because there are cells which are hungry and have to go to the toilet again afterwards. The released metabolic products slip into the body tissue everywhere and the lymphatic streams then try to transport these products to the veins from the bloodstream so that they can be centrally discharged via the kidneys out of our body.

But the tissue still uses other ways to get rid of something. This includes the skin, especially under the armpits and the groin of the trunk, where these metabolic products are secreted to a greater extent, which then become moist and reveal themselves to our senses in the form of a slightly aromatic smell.

In principle, all openings and surfaces that we find on our bodies are intended to be used in both directions. An excretory organ is not necessarily only an excretory organ. A supply channel is therefore not necessarily only designed for supply. Every day the lungs transport dust upwards, which then ends up as booger in the nose, but also a lot of dirt and mucus is transported along with it, which also wants to leave our body. However, because we had to give up spitting, we have blocked this possibility and no longer feel this urge as strongly as we should in order to relieve ourselves. The dirt then accumulates in the throat area, here especially in the larynx, and causes, for example, over decades of suppression, throat cancer. Likewise, the important thyroid gland cannot cope with dirt and becomes ill. We only have to watch how often soccer players spit snot out in a game to slowly understand how much dirt we hold back in our body.

With old age the neck gets very wrinkled with almost any number of folds. Any ideas why? A strong accumulation of this dirt and toxins with an increased disposal through the skin, activated by the sunlight makes it happen. The sun pushes the dirt onto the skin, but we don’t dispose of it sufficiently enough and we only think that age has struck again – thereby it's only an unfortunate misinterpretation. Causes are very often misinterpreted which finally ends in a wrong belief construct, and then we simply overlook good, alternative options.

It is not only smoking which can cause cancer of the throat, but also our own waste, which rots down and puts the cells in this hopeless situation. Lacking oxygen, they have to switch to a million-year-old program of fermentation, because that does not need oxygen. The doctor then calls it cancer and we get in a panic.

CONSTRUCTION SITE OLD AGE

When I look at the 60+ generation, I usually see a large construction site in front of me. The damage to their bodies is so massive and obvious that it hurts me again and again. Flabby upper bodies with missing butt muscles and much too thin legs, shock me. Also, the skin with its wrinkles, spots and inflammations, tell me that the tissue underneath looks even worse. With their eyes behind glasses, which have possibly been worn for decades, and hearing aids in one ear or the other, the problems of age become abundantly clear.

When they are sitting down or standing up from a chair or even a sofa, we see the clear limitations of the musculoskeletal system. The gait is crooked and stiff and moving is often burdensome and painful. Riding a bicycle becomes more and more difficult, the entry has to be deep, and you know that this too will soon no longer be possible.

In terms of organs, the gastrointestinal tract is the first complaint, which can be seen in those typically bloated bellies. These are not affluent bellies, as they are often referred to in jest. This is a real emergency and their lives are at stake. Likewise, the kidneys and cardiovascular system aren’t working as they should. The doctors, who they now visit more often, can do little for them and so they resign themselves to making the best of their lives and looking for a nice retirement home.

There are so many possibilities for giving the body its life and spirit back, but nothing happens. The healing experts have no ideas but also, we – the obvious victims – have no desire at all to break this cycle of ill-health. Why on earth not?

Maybe it's because I am constantly asking ‘why’ – something I do when something goes against the grain – and it often does. Maybe that's how change came about for me, by thinking it over, again and again, and observing more closely, day after day, until I was able to achieve unexpected success for myself.

DISEASES IN THE METAPHYSICAL WORLD

We are always talking about sickness and health and have our very own ideas about them. The world has generated a billion-dollar market out of it, which actually has zero effect. Thereby the topic could be explained in a few pages and the suffering would be over forever.

Diseases are not normal for humans. There is no scientifically based reason why a person should get sick at all. Man is virtual, an illusion, a software program where only our mind is real in it. We have created this universe with our thoughts and yet we get sick in our own written program? How embarrassing is that? I'm sure that wasn't our plan.

The world we call reality consists only of electromagnetic waves. Different frequency patterns and their energy around us form this world before our eyes and we think, because of our lack of knowledge, that this is real. Nothing is real. When we dream, we are also in a different world every time. Where does this dream world suddenly appear from?

What we call reality, i.e. we assume to be ‘real’, is only as real as the world in a video game with 3D glasses – in short, it is unreal. Reality exists only in our heads. Everything consists of software which we constantly write with our thoughts. We are doing this all the time, over and over.

Diseases therefore, only arise from interference with different frequency patterns and their inherent energies. If these become too strong for us, we lose out and our appearance falls apart, which medicine has documented in thousands of different diseases. That’s all.

If we really want to surpass ourselves, then we should do our own research because what is offered to us in schools and universities is full of mistakes and information gaps.

We are creators of this world, so we should never become part of our own program. It's like we’ve created a game character in a video game and at some point, we believe we are the game character – no, we only operate the game character through this non-real reality.

Reality does not determine us, we determine reality and, consequently, our health, and we do this with our thoughts. Thus, spiritual healers use their thoughts to focus their inner energy towards a goal and dissolve diseases in record time. We, too, can heal ourselves with our mind. No special talent or other prerequisite is needed for this; it is only necessary to know how to do it, but unfortunately, we all know far too little.

So, diseases are really only the interference of frequencies and this raises the decisive question: Where do these interferences come from?

In our world, there are many disturbances because the harmony that is necessary for a healthy and happy life was broken at some point. Active frequency transmissions from all the transmission masts in the world are responsible. So, microwave technology is a catastrophe for our existence. From microwaves for food to wireless communication, our body is under enormous stress. It has grown into a plague that generates cancer on an enormous scale, but we still don't want to understand.

Likewise, many interfering frequencies are generated by people’s negative thinking. Negativity transforms this world, bit by bit, into a social wasteland, so people feel defensive and isolated, which results in further disease. Where does all this hate and madness, which drives people so crazy, come from?

Also, aluminium with its vibrations (in the metaphysical world, everything consists of vibrations) is now everywhere: in the air, in food, in medicines, in crockery, and in almost infinite food packaging, destroying our minds and, therefore, our bodies, slowly but steadily. But we still do not recognise the danger of aluminium.

Likewise, plastic, in which the whole Earth is now slowly being wrapped, will keep taking lives on a grand scale. It is the next big plague, and it will hit us very hard.

THE COSTS ARE EXPLODING

Health insurance companies try to keep their premiums as low as possible in the interest of the insured, but nevertheless, the turnover of the gigantic health industry still reaches new records every year. For a 60-year-old, private health insurance generally costs between 500 GBP and 800 GBP per month, which corresponds to 6,000 GBP or 9,600 GBP per year.

I have dedicated myself to this topic and have considered whether it could be cheaper. And lo and behold, it could be much cheaper. That’s because most of the costs are caused by our excessive degeneration, which again and again causes various diseases in our bodies.

‘A healthy tooth doesn't get sick.’ This advertisement, probably from the 80s, came back into my mind and motivated me to work constantly on my body.

Today, after about 15 years of personal initiative, my body is (finally) in a state of health where I hardly ever need a doctor for the whole year, but this does not mean that I am already healthy.

In order to maintain this proper level, at the very least, I get blood work done and/or an ultrasound examination of selected organs approximately every two years in order to get an overview of the progress I’ve made and to reveal any remaining weaknesses.

With each tiny measurement, I can see that my health has improved visibly over the years; I have even been able to break free from the annual cold. I used to wonder how some people managed this, but now I know – it’s the immune system that has to do the work, but this is in a desolate state for most of us.

Later, we will not only register every health improvement with a new strength, but also that reassuring feeling of not having to get anxious about every bacterium right away.
