What I have come to realize after working on well over 100,000 client visits in over 25 years of doing B.E.S.T. is – for you to truly heal, that is mind-body-soul-memory, I have to re-contextualize how I see myself and life. Another way of saying this is I need a paradigm shift to truly move forward out of the physical, mental, emotional, financial, spiritual rut I may realize I’m in right now.
If you can look at your life and see no negative repeating patterns this article is not for you. Or you could choose to read on and move out of denial.
A paradigm is a way of looking at yourself; how I perceive myself, others and life. It’s the rose colored glasses I look subjectively at life through and how I interpret and respond to life.
A perspective or re-contextualization I could choose to entertain would be: “I am a spiritual being, undergoing a temporary physical experience.”
When I begin to see life this way, I no longer view myself as just a body. I may have a body, brain, spouse, child, car, home, possessions, talents, etc., however I am not that, the matter, the physical, the temporary, the transient or passing. This is not to trivialize the physical, rather to see it from a higher perspective.
We know that the physical body is created to survive: what comes at it and what we do to it. It will, by intelligent design, create temporary solutions to habits that in the long run create dis-ease/lack of ease and eventually disease.
However the soul, the spiritual being is here to grow, evolve and to serve. So to only address the body, the matter, at the exclusion of the spiritual is at best a dog chasing it’s tail, at worst a prescription for soul suffering.
Here at Desert Dove Health & Wellness Center, we recognize we are all spiritual beings undergoing a physical experience and we address correction of cause at the highest level to the most physical in its easiest priority sequence according to intelligent design.
