What is a healing crisis?
A healing crisis is the opposite of a dis-ease crisis yet in many ways feels the same,
and
symptoms are often similar. It's very important to make the distinction between the
symptoms of dis-ease process and those of the healing process.
Healing crisis usually occurs after a period of increased well-being, and may last a
few days. Each healing crisis releases physical problems from the past. When a healing
crisis comes, do not attempt to stop it! This confuses most people because, "If I
feel sick, I must be sick," when in actuality, the discomfort of the healing crisis
is an indication of your own body working to heal itself, from the inside, out.
The fastest, easiest and most effective method to promote healing is to detoxify the
tissue.
Colon cleansing is an all important step in this process. A cleansing program
ultimately leads to the beneficial and important healing crisis, which manifests as the
recurrence of old physical problems, such as a runny nose, flu-like symptoms, and fever
which occurs to burn out toxic waste. The ills that were once suppressed by drugs are now
released. As one continues a healthful pattern of living through good nutritional practice
(the science of food combining known as Trophology), one may experience several healing
crises, each time releasing past problems. This is a sure sign that the right path has
been taken and that the body has gained the strength to heal itself naturally. Our body
does its best with what we give it, therefore, we must learn to work with nature and not
against it.
Typically, as a condition proceeds toward the chronic stage, the allopathic approach
calls for powerful drugs to suppress symptoms. To begin the reversal path and get back to
a higher level of health, we must retrace the path back, from illness back to wellness. To
bring about a reversal, and a healing, we must understand that suppression is the wrong
way to go. Rejuvenation cannot be accomplished by using drugs or suppressing symptoms.
Elimination of toxic material must be assisted rather than repressed.
"There is a tremendous need to make a distinction between the symptoms of a
disease process and those of the healing process." Dr. Bernard Jensen
Herings Law of Cure explains the distinct differences between the development of the
disease process and the healing process. There are differences between the symptoms
manifested by disease from the symptoms of healing a disease.
Herings Law of Cure states, "All cure comes from within out, from the head down
and in
reverse order as the symptoms have appeared in the body." As we adopt right
eating and
living habits, our body reacts to these new behaviors. The state of health will
retrace backward via the same path that led us to disease in the first place.
By working toward a healing crisis you can activate the location of chronic
settlements and toxins that create weakness in the body. When the old waste matter is
activated, or stirred up, it returns to the bloodstream and begins the process of being
eliminated from the body. It isn't pleasant to experience, but necessary for healing to
occur. As the toxins become free flowing, they work their way out through the eliminative
channels and orifices of the body. Don't settle for short term suppression, reach for long
term tissue rejuvenation through bowel cleansing. Toxins can be eliminated by colon
cleansing and good nutrition, which is a more natural wholistic approach to make us whole
again.
Dr. Bernard Jensen sums it up well by stressing that what's important for elevating
your good health is not the cleansing program, but the nurturing and healing of body and
soul that takes place after the cleanse. He said, "As you have built up conditions in
the body through foods, pollution, overwork, enervation, lifestyle, etc., we have to learn
our lesson and go back over them and relive them, so to speak. You can expect all of those
problems to return as you get well."
