Alternative Medicine and Energy Healing - NLP Neuro Linguistic Programming

NPL Neuro Linguistic Programming is a form of Alternative Medicine that uses Quantum Medicine forms of energy healing methods, which is simply using pure potentiality, consciousness, thought, mind, awareness, language and intention to effect change and transformation. NPL was ahead of its time and finally being recognized for it's power to effect change with thought.

Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) is a very unique and effective use of alternative medicine and energy healing methods. This technique is becoming more and more popular as it is better understood. NLP uses images and attitudes towards disharmony and illness to affect change and encourage the healing process.

NLP uses presuppositions as part of the treatment to help one see that one can effect change in self. Alternative treatments and methods work, however hope, faith and prayers of the person using them does in fact help the healing process.

NLP uses the power of thought and language. It works! If you give up on yourself or speak negatively of yourself, than it is very likely that your body will give up as well. There are so many medical and alternative health methods in the world today that there is no need to give up. There is a need to be responsible, be accountable, investigate, do research and find a method that will be productive and effective for you.

Neurocognitive testing helps clinicians evaluate and quantitatively measure the health of the higher functions of the brain and central nervous system “vital signs”. The three most commonly cited domains of cognition are attention, memory and executive function. Objective neurocognitive evaluations are an important adjunct in the evaluation of a patient’s neurological, psychiatric, and psychological health.

Computerized testing offers accurate recording of reaction times, electronic capture and processing of data (minimizing human error) and standardization of test administration (minimizing sources of response bias).

The test battery measures the speed and accuracy of nine basic mental functions, which are indicators of the health and integrity of the brain's higher functions. The battery generates some 15 primary scores, which are used to calculate 5 domain scores that include memory, psychomotor speed, reaction time, cognitive flexibility, and complex attention, all producing a summary score or "neurocognition index."

Quantitative Electroencephalographic Assessment of Brain Function (qEEG)
Quantitative Electroencephalographic Assessment of Brain Function (qEEG) is a scientifically established method for evaluating brain function based on brain electrical activity mapping. In this form of functional brain imaging, your brain's electrical activity, as measured in 19 sites on your head, is analyzed using complex mathematical and statistical tools in comparison to norms or averages. These norms are based on the electrical activity of thousands of individuals with no known neurological, developmental, or psychiatric disorder. This method of assessing brain function provides information about patterns of brain activation and communication that can then be related to difficulties in daily life functioning such as problems with attention, anxiety, mood, learning, or behavior. The results of these analyses can then be presented in graphical form, resulting in topographical displays of brain electrical activity - sometimes called “brain maps".

Research using qEEG has provided substantial evidence of a significant relationship between EEG abnormalities and a variety of disorders of behavior, emotion, thinking, learning, and development. Simply put, this body of research demonstrates that the EEG signal is a good indicator of patterns of cortical activation that play a role in many forms of psychological disorder, including ADHD, anxiety, depression, learning disabilities, and autism and other neurodevelopmental disorders. Much of this research has been amply cross-validated using other neuroimaging techniques.

Each qEEG is compared to a normative database (Neuroguide) that compares the EEGs of normal brain functioning with your brain waves. Using this analysis tool the neurotherapist has at their disposal a sound, objective measure to help determine what is the possible source of symptoms. This is especially true with those sensitive to psychiatric illnesses, often characterized by disturbances of brain organization rather than brain structures.

NLP is one of the strongest methods to effect change in a person in the world today. This is a method of change that anyone can learn and anyone can take advantage of. There are many things in life that people are successful at and many others that they are not. What the process of NLP suggests is that you can take the strategy you use for your successes and transfer them to the activities that you are not successful with. This process can be used for the healing process as well.

As stated earlier, if you do not believe that you can be healed, than you cannot be. Belief is a powerful factor in healing and one needs to have faith, faith in your healing source and faith in your body to heal itself, however, once you lose faith, your body will then lose faith as well.

Finding a great NLP practitioner is easy! This is of course one of the most vital factors you should consider before beginning your quest for NLP treatments. These types of treatments are not like conventional treatments. You need to ensure that you are choosing a qualified practitioner. If you do not, you could be putting yourself at a risk. Research is key before beginning an alternative medical treatment such as NLP.

Begin trusting in NLP and its processes. NLP is reliable and effective. There are thousands of people who practice this form of treatment on a daily basis. This could be for you. Take your healing into your own hands and try the NLP process. I know many people who use this method including some of my mentors: Have you ever heard of T. Harv Eker - Google him!

ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE - MEDITATION

"Meditation is quantum medicine and energy healing - the practice of using consciousness and pure potentiality to focus attention on the realization of our inner state of being to know self - "I am". - Saquina Akanni

Meditation is an Alternative medicine, energy healing medicine and mind-body intervention technique used in all of the natural and traditional medicines such as Ayurveda medicine, Chinese medicine and Native American medicine just to mention a few. There are hundreds of different meditation styles and techniques, most of which fall into one of five categories: concentration, mindfulness, transcendental meditation, Qi Gong meditation and Quantum meditation.

Meditation is one of the energy healing medicines that use pure potentiality, consciousness, thought, mind, awareness, attention, focus and intention to tap into the deeper realization of the multifaceted layers of ones being and ones life.

Meditation has been practiced for thousands of years by many different cultures and traditions and is one of the ultimate energy healing medicines. It is both an art and a skill. Meditations to those who have spent time doing it know the benefits it can bring about into our life affecting the quality of health, mind, body, spirit and soul. Benefits include more energy, positive state of mind and a sense of being centered. Studies have shown that meditation increases the level of melatonin - a hormone that supports your immune system. Therefore making your immune system stronger and making you healthier. This hormone also slows down the signs of aging, increases sleep patterns, increases energy levels and may even inhibit cancer cells from growing. One of the more well known forms of meditation that may come to mind is Chakra Meditation, which is a method used to aligns the energy centers called Chakras in Chakra Therapy. Meditation is also an effective means of treating stress and managing pain.

During concentration meditation, attention is focused on quieting the mind and uses methods of focusing on a single sound, an object or one's breath, to bring about a calm, tranquil mind.

During mindfulness meditation, the attention is concentrated and focused on disciplines where the mind becomes aware, but does not react to the variety of sensations, feelings, images and environment tied in with a current activity.

During transcendental meditation (TM) the focus is on stillness of the mind, where the mind is allowed to settle inward beyond thought to experience the source of thought or pure potential awareness to bring about a state of deep relaxation, in which the body is totally at rest, yet the mind is in a highly alert state. This is known as transcendental consciousness or experiencing the unified field.

During Qi Gong meditation many disciplines are available and all the previous methods and techniques mentioned can be used with the focus always on using Qi or energy to bring about the desired state of being: tranquil mind, calm emotion, relaxed body, highly alert and energy healing.

Quantum meditation uses the same approach as Qi Gong with various additional methods and techniques including bio electric devices such as; CDs, mp3 downloads, guided sessions, enlightenment sessions, success, and of course energy healing.

Meditation allows the body to switch to an alpha (resting) or theta (relaxing) brain-wave state, during which the brain's rhythm slows and endorphins, the body's natural painkillers, are released. Studies have shown that during meditation, metabolism is lowered, resulting in a slower heart rate, decreased blood pressure, and slower breathing. In the seventies, Dr. Herbert Benson, a cardiologist at the Harvard Medical School, formulated the theory of an inborn "relaxation response" that can be cultivated to counteract stress. Eliciting it, Benson wrote, "… can help counteract the effects of repeated insults of stress on the heart and other organs."

There are so many amazing websites, blogs and pictures depicting the many different type of meditations methods and techniques. There is one that will resonate with you and I recommend you do some research and start today.The education may cost you a few dollars, but meditation is FREE - you are the source of pure potentiality and can transform your life with a little practice!

Thank you for your websites, blogs, insight and contribution to Meditation.

ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE - Kinesiology Therapy

Kinesiology is an Alternative Medicine and energy healing approach to health care. It is the scientific study of human movement and the word Kinesiology conventionally means the study of motion, in particular the study of how muscles act and coordinate to move the body. However, in the natural health field, the term kinesiology is seen and used in a different way. Here, muscles become monitors of stress and a feedback system. "Muscle Testing", the key technique in Kinesiology, is used as an effective and versatile tool for detecting and correcting various imbalances in the body, which may be due to stress, nutrition, learning problems or injuries.

Kinesiology encompasses human anatomy, physiology, neuroscience, biochemistry, biomechanics, exercise psychology and sociology of sport. The relationship between the quality of movement and overall human health is also studied. Kinesiological information is applied in such fields as physical therapy, occupational therapy, chiropractic, osteopathy, exercise physiology, kinesiotherapy, massage therapy, ergonomics, physical education and athletic coaching. The approach of these applications can be therapeutic, preventive and high-performance sport medicine.

Kinesiology also known as human kinetics, is a regulated profession that uses applies science-based medical principles to the analysis, preservation and enhancement of human movement in all settings and populations. It is a therapy where a practitioner will assess a patient's health by using touch as well as testing their muscles. According to this Alternative Medicine any imbalance of physique, chemistry, nutrition or emotion can be detected by the variation of stress resistance in various muscle groups. The practitioner treat using verious methods by employing methods including acupressure. Kinesiology draws from Chinese Medicine and uses meridian points of the anatomy to balance energy flow and readjusts the nervous system.

The study of Kinesiology cannot really be attributed to one specific person. It is thought to date back to Aristotle and his studies of the human muscular system, but many anatomical thinkers and doctors have contributed to its development over the years. Since 1988, Dr. Neumann author of Kinesiology of the Musculoskeletal System directs a four-day human gross anatomy dissection course for a wide range of medical and health professionals. This very popular course, presented on the campus of Marquette University, combines anatomy dissection and lectures on kinesiology.

Kinesiologist use techniques in which they test the muscles in order to determine the imbalances in the body. They then used a number of various techniques to restore balance including acupressure and chiropractic muscle manipulation.

Kinesiology not only works on the body-there has success restoring balance and order to the mind and spirit as well. The muscle testing techniques used in Kinesiology are non-invasive. The limbs of the body are placed in various positions and then light pressure is applied. Very often there is no pain, some discomfort if there is blockage or stagnation of energy. If the muscle does not respond properly then it is an indication of the patient needs therapy. The condition is then treated on all levels use the appropriate method to relieve pain: acupressure, chiropractic to realign, if something out of place or therapeutic massage to address the caused the problem and to develop or strength training for a stronger muscle.

Kinesiology’s practitioners believe that each muscle is linked to a variety of mental and emotional imbalances as well as the more obvious physical problems. In the practice of kinesiology a condition is diagnosed by the use of the body’s natural feedback system. By using "Muscle Testing" and touch these technique the practitioner can not only determine the treatment(s) but the order in which they should be received in order to holistically and completely alleviate the pain and control or cure the problem. The permanent solution is rooted in treating the source of the disharmony. Besides, muscle conditions Kinesiology are effective for various other conditions, such as allergies, digestive problems, arthritis and depression as well as learning problems. Of course it is well known for muscle pain (which is usually the original complaint most seekers of kinesiology treatment present with), postoperative pain and acne.

Consider an example: the patient presents to a Kinesiologist with symptoms of itching, sinus problems, headache, and irritability. These are the symptoms, which need to be alleviated and the cause is an allergy. If the patient went to a conventional physician, he may prescribed allergy medication that reduces the physical symptoms, however unless the source of the allergy itself is treated, the patient would have to continue taking the medication indefinitely, which could affect the emotions and or mental state as well as other side effects.

Treatments are specific to each individual, but usually include reflex massage. Other types of treatment are sometimes preformed such as what is referred to as a mechanical adjustment wherein massage or gentle chiropractic is used to bring the original skeletal structure into alignment. Because there are 206 bones in the human body and they are attached to muscles by ligaments, realigning the skeletal structure eases the pressure of the tension on the muscles, causing everything from energy flow, blood flow to nerve impulses to self correct.

Nutrition and diet play an important role in Kinesiology Therapy as well. The patient’s current mineral and vitamin intake are charted and adjustments made to the diet in order to ensure the proper food is getting to the muscles. This chart is also used to determine possible food allergies.

Herbal remedies are also used to treat various emotional imbalances like depression and anger management issues. These treatments are used as preventative measures along with treating problems presenting at the time of the initial consultation.

Kinesiologists work in research, the fitness industry, clinically, and in industrial environments. Studies of human motion may be supported by computer using stereo camera systems for pose recognition and motion modeling.

Kineseology should not be confused with Applied kinesiology (AK) which use different methods. While an understanding of kinesiology is fundamental for the analysis and treatment of problems in the musculoskeletal system, it is not - unlike "applied kinesiology" (AK) - a method for the treatment or diagnosis of illness.

ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE - Journal Therapy

Journal Therapy is a form of energy medicine as it unleashes your pure potentiality from consciousness.

Journaling is Alternative Medicine and Quantum Medicine a form of energy healing as it gives one an opportunity for self discovery by simply putting thought and feelings down on paper. It opens the mind and puts one into a state of awareness allowing one to put ones attention and focus on self.

Journaling allows you to "Tell Your Story" and to be fully self expressed without concerns of judgment. My mentor says it best:

Journaling Helps You Understand Your Thoughts and Beliefs By Mark Victor Hansen

"If you’ve never done it before, I can assure you – Journaling can open up a whole new world to you. It’s not just for the weak or lily livered either, so get that thought out of our mind immediately. This is not a Jane Austen endeavor – this is your life.

Just writing down your thoughts, ideas, plans and goals can open the window to your mind. It can show you the train of your thoughts, your fears and your hopes so that you’ve got something there that shows you, indicatively, what you’re really thinking.

See, journaling lets you release the thoughts in your mind that you might not even be consciously aware of. When you start journaling, don’t be self-conscious about what you write – just let it flow.
After a week or month or so, take some time to review your entries. Note your hopes and your fears. Don’t let those good ideas get away from you – they’re there in paper, now put some action to those ideas. Get clearer on your hopes and goals, and note where you need to deviate yourself from any negative self talk.

Action Step:
Keep up on your journal entries, jotting just a few words every day if possible. Over the next year, you’ll see the difference a personal journal can make."

Yours in goal-setting success,
Mark Victor Hansen

- Mari McCarthy

"Visual journals are essentially "art diaries." They often contain both images [usually drawings] and words. Like an actual diary, their contents may be rough drafts that may later become finished artworks. And like an actual diary, they are meant to document day-to-day experiences, activities, and emotions and are often autobiographical in nature. Although they are defined as an art form, visual journals have been used for centuries as records of ideas and imagination. Da Vinci's drawing journals of flying machines and physicist Stephen Hawking's diagrams of the space-time continuum are just a couple of well-known examples."
- Cathy Malchiodi
- Visual Journal by Juliana Coles

"In 2007, Health Net Federal Services launched a children’s initiative in an effort to provide additional resources to help children successfully navigate the unique challenges military families face. My Life, a kid’s journal, was developed to help children with a parent or loved one deployed easily express complicated emotions and serve as a tool for children and parents to establish important dialogue before, during and after deployment. This journal can be saved as a keepsake or completed and sent as a gift from a child to his or her deployed loved one.

Health Net Federal Services created My Life Continued, a bereavement journal for military children who have lost a parent or loved one who served in the military. The journal is a private place to write down thoughts and feelings and was created to help children remember and honor their loved one and help them apply that love in a productive way as they move forward in their lives.

ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE - IRIDOLOGY

Iridology also known as iridodiagnosis, is an Alternative Medicine and the scientific analysis of patterns and structures in the iris of the eye in which observation of patterns, colors, and other characteristics of the iris are examined for information about a patient's health.

Practitioners match observations using iris charts. The eye is divide up into zones that to correspond to specific parts of the body. The iris is the portion of the eye showing color. It reveals body constitution, inherent strengths and weaknesses, health levels, and transitions that take place in a person's body according to ones lifestyle.

Iridology is potentially an integral part of preventive health care. It has the ability to forewarn of approaching difficulties or signs of "dis-ease". Iridology can be a powerful tool, allowing one to determine what is transpiring inside the body from a simple, painless, and economical external vantage point. In effect, iridology will reveal how well your body functions and reflects areas and stages of inflammation throughout the body.

Improper nutrition and lack of exercise undermines the body's integrity until eventually it becomes unable to reverse damaging toxic conditions through its own natural self-healing mechanisms, becoming susceptible to ailments of a chronic nature. Therefore, nutrition and iridology are inseparable in one's pursuit of a healthy way of life and holistic health care program. iridology helps us understand our weakness so we may become aware of dis-ease and take preventive action to avoid disease. We can cleanse, balance, strengthen and repair our bodies to obtain our maximum our health potential. It brings to us an awareness of how to prevent illness, by observation thus allowing us to earn us to maintain and improve physical, mental and spiritual health.

Iridology originated in Europe, when a physician from Hungary and a Swedish pastor both noticed iris markings in connection with disease. The physician-Ignatz von Peczely accidentally injured an owl as a child, breaking its leg. While nursing the owl back to health, the young von Peczely noticed that the thick black mark that appeared in the owl’s eye after the injury began to lessen as the owl healed. He never forgot it, and as an adult practicing his profession, he recoded that patients with bone fractures experienced the same black mark across the iris.

In 1950, a chiropractor from America named Bernard Jensen began teaching students about the necessity of using natural foods to detoxify the body. He developed a method by which the color of the iris was used to indicate the presence of different toxins. American iridology was born.

The complex iris is composed of hundreds of thousands of nerve endings which are connected by impulses to every tissue of the body through the brain and nervous system. The nerve fibers, or trabecula, respond specifically to tissue and organ conditions with a corresponding physiological reflex manifested in the iris as lesions and color variations. The iris chart, which is the result of many years of clinical observation and intensive research by Dr. Bernard Jensen and others, represents the basic placement of body organs and tissues similar to a map. An accurate iris analysis is possible by superimposing the chart over an iris image projection, allowing detailed observation of the valuable and reliable data recorded there.

Iridology is not used to directly diagnose specific diseases. It is a self-care approach to identify health problems. Iridology can help one identify the source of a problem and what needs to be done, with regard to stress, diet and lifestyle. Iridology can help identify possible organ and system weaknesses, which can attribute to conditions such as:

• Stress
• Skin Issues
• Digestive Problems
  
• Fatigue
  
• Moods changes, Anxiety and Depression
• Hormonal issues – PMS, Menopause and Fertility Issues
• Inflammation, Arthritis and Joint pain

Practitioners of iridology use it to help patients as a preventative measure to understand basic health problems in order to refer them to specialists if needed. The belief is that if a disease is detected in the very early stages, it can be prevented from spreading further. The colored part of the eye-the iris-is studied for markings and color changes by isolating the iris and taking pictures of it with a very strong lens. The process takes about an hour and is painless. The photos are then blown up and gone over with a magnifying glass by the Iridologist and used to determine and identify potential ailments.

When seeking an Iridologist, find one who has been certified by the Institute for Applied Iridology or by the International Iridology Research Association in Solana Beach, CA.

Consider this, Western Medical doctors usually can't tell you the score until the game's over--until you actually have a disease that has a name and label. Iridology lets you walk in at the first inning--and that's why it will probably play a staffing role in preventative medicine at the bioelectric level: Quantum medicine which is well on its way to becoming the medicine of the future.

Thank you for you insight and contribution on Iridology
