Enjoy as you read about this research story 

Eyeballs and Health

Quit smoking, and your eyes will thank you  An in-depth study of smoking and eye health in Wisconsin, The Beaver Dam Eye Study, yielded some eye-opening results 

Those who quit smoking for at least five years had about the same risk of developing macular degeneration as those who had never smoked at all 

In another study, former smokers who had quit at least 10 years earlier had a risk of cataracts 21 to 17 percent lower than those subjects who currently smoked 

Stop Listening To the Mind

It's been said that the mind where we encounter thoughts, feelings, emotions, beliefs, and judgements is a pothole of trouble

The reasons for this are many but a couple are salient with respect to health  The mind is that part of us that creates errant behaviors that we maintain that we call addictions such as the one to smoking as above

The mind's incessant activity is responsible for anxiety and all the ramifications of such activity

The mind's fear keeps us in the status quo and preventing us from taking on new more productive patterns of health

Healing:  "Getting Out of the Way" Said Many Different Ways

What the eyeball story shows us in a behind the scenes way is that if we get out of the way we can acheive increased wellness  In this case the addicted let go of the habit and the body searched for balance  In this case the eyeballs got better

What's this mean?  If we insist that the mind be quiet, we can let go of everything and acheive optimal health  This is also called the pathway to least resistance

Another way of saying the same thing is, "If we insist that the mind get out of the way and not interfere with the natural processes of the physical body, healing naturally takes place"

Above all else the body yearns for its natural state of balance  Unfortunately our minds mess it up

The Mind Creates Disease

"Why did I get sick doctor?"  From the above it's clear we do it to ourselves

This is a very powerful place to be  From a position of responsibility we can then move forward without being a victim to deal with our imbalance

Sometimes we need guidance as to what are the best choices to make because we are so laden down with past experiences that cloud our ability to make good healthy choices

This is where the energy science medical discipline can help  It can offer time honored guidelines that can lead to life sustaining choices such as around nutrition

Until next time Ciao                                                 To health as a Skill    Love DrBill
