A Simple Lesson On Appreciation

January 26th, 2006


What a great relief as my husband finally came home after his long stay at the hospital.

I was quite amazed at how calmly and composed he had adapted himself to the whole procedure he went through.

This especially because he was never one to just sit around and do nothing. Not that he did anyway!  What with his laptop and a stacked-up files of documents from work to see him through the long stretched out hours!

I have always prided myself for being able to release tension and fear of insecurity before they can overwhelm me. So when I noticed a new surge of energy and inspiration flooding through me, after my husband got back home, I shared my experience with him.

This made me realise that even though I ‘d thought all along that I was fine and had managed to get things done on daily basis, I was far from being ok.

A big part of me was blocked off. I couldn’t write, or work effectively. It took me twice the amount of time and effort to do the things I normally would have done in half the time.

And although I knew what was happening, I wasn’t able to influence it. This has given me a completely new perspective and appreciation of how fear can reduce one’s scope of functioning.

I am truly grateful and thankful for all that I’ve been blessed with. I think that sometimes you need to experience certain hardship to become more appreciative of life and what you have.

Learning Valuable Lessons From Health Conditions

January 12th, 2006


Wishing you a prosperous, happy and healthy New Year!

Mine started off with a big challenge.

As a Naturopathic Doctor and Psychotherapist my entire life motto has been: solid health first and everything else shall follow. This all the more renders my present predicament very unsettling.

Since mid-December 2005 my husband is dealing with the possibility of losing a kidney and even though I’d seen it coming all along, having tried to get him to change his eating habits and way of life, all to no avail, this does not make it any easier to process.

I have been asking myself repeatedly over and over again, what lessons am I to learn through this experience? What have I failed to recognise or still need to recognise? And what it is that I need to change to turn this learning into a creative and valuable gift?

I like to believe that that every ill-health, whether ours or someone else’s, challenges us to look deeper into ourselves and make changes to better our own health. This is exactly what I have been doing and I came across a very interesting book which I feel might be of interest to other people as well.

The title of the book is: You’re Not Sick, You’re Thirsty: Water for Health, for Healing, for Life by F. Batmanghelidj, M.D. This was a Medical Doctor who cured various illnesses with simple Water cure. You can find out more about this by clicking on the link: www.watercure.com and www.watercure2.org

I’d like to know if anyone else has heard of this treatment and has used it successfully?
