3 Ways to Cool Off During the Summer Months
From this famous equation we are told that energy and matter simultaneously coexist What is matter is energy, what is energy is matter Biologically that means that your body is both and an energy and matter fields This fundamental law of Nature is important because it shifts the way we think about healing the body
Currently using the allopathic model we have a disease detection and treatment program....it's not built for a system of prevention It's like trying to drive a Model T in a Formula One race classic like the Indianapolis 500 But this is the 21st century and consumers of health care are finding that their visits to the doc aren't cutting it any more They're looking for a Formula One race car and getting a Model T
Wave or Particle View of the Human Body
Everything that we observe whether it's our body or the world around us can be viewed as either a wave or a particle When it's a particle we see the world as reassuringly solid and palpable From this world view we see things around as molecules; but when the world is seen as a wave our view changes The world is seen as vibrating pulsating energy
These vibrational frequencies are identified as money, struggles, obstructions to what we want, the passion of life itself Biologically vibrational frequencies are what make us up as an identifiable body in space
In the allopathic medical tradition measurement of molecules or their molecular arrangement is how disease is both detected and serves as a monitor for the effectiveness in treatment In contrast in the energy science medical disciplines imbalances that lead to disease is based on a disturbance of vibrational frequencies in the body called qualities
As I've written in the past the qualities prominent in the IC bladder pain syndrome are hot and mobile(of the total of 20 contrasting qualities, eg hot and cold, mobile and static, heavy and light etc) So in all diseases these qualities play important roles in the disease process
The Hot Quality of Summer
So from the above it would not be surprising that hot weather is problematic for IC You see, the quality that affects the physiology from a energy science perspective doesn't have to be ingested If you are exposed to hot weather the energy body absorbs that quality as if you ingested it
The difference between ingesting the hot quality and being environmentally exposed to hot is that when ingested that hot qualitya remains with you to be processed over a 35 day period whereas if you're simply exposed to the quality and its effect goes away after exposure
But what happens if you work in a hot kitchen for your occupation Then day in and day out, week after week, month after month the hot quality exposure is consistent and persistent Then over time it will be like you're ingesting the hot quality every day and indeed it will have a physiologic impact
Compounding Influence of Qualities
So you feel pretty good after that cup of coffee so no big deal....didn't have any influence on you, right? Well, the energy science would say that anything that is taken in has an effect and that there is a compounding effect that takes place when coffee is taken, hot weather is thrown into the equation, perhaps a cheeseburger with ketchup,etc etc This compounding effect produces the flares
You see, it's not just one choice that brings about the flare but a multitude of choices that go back 35 days That's why it's actually quite fallacious to say that the choice made yesterday caused the flare today The flare is actually the cumulative body response of many different choices that have been made over at least the last month
And this doesn't take into consideration the level of the say the hot quality in the body before the ingestion Say the level of the hot quality is a 5 and it takes a 10 to get a flare Well then, you have a cushion You could do a number of different things to provoke and not get a flare until you reach 9 then the hot day is the straw that breaks the proverbial camel's back
Lastly for some the flares for the above reasons don't occur during the hot time of year They occur after the summer mounting up time and in the fall one is more predisposed to the flare It's much like the spring cold which is just a physiologic release of all the buildup of the heavy qualities that developed during the winter months
Staying Cool
1 The obvious is not to expose yourself to heat unnecessarily, whether it be at the beach, work, or at home Look for ways to cool off your local environment
2 Pay close attention to what foods y0u are taking in during the summer months(icdiet.com) and particularly use cooling foods such as fresh cilantro or coconut
3 Use cooling herbs such as mint, cumin, coriander, fennel, turmeric, wintergreen in cooking foods
Just being aware of the hot quality can go a long ways to prevent buildup of the hot quality and the flares it produces
