PHILADELPHIA,  PENN.  May  23,  7937
Your  Infinite  Opportunity,  Oh  Children  of Earth,  is
filled  with  a Charged  Glory,  yet unknown  and  experienced
by mankind.  Yours  is the Joy,  the Happiness,  the Power  of
having  come  to know  your  own  God-Self,  the "Mighty  I
AM."  You  may  wonder  why  so many  times  the expression
is used—"Your  'Mighty  I AM  Presence'";  because  It is the
Mightiest  Intelligence  in the Universe—the  Governor  of
your  worlds,  if you  please,  and  the Governor  of the Whole
Universe!  It has provided  for you  a Higher  Mental  Body,
Your  Own  Christ  Self,  by which  It releases  Its Powers  to
YOU  WITHOUT  LIMIT.
When  you  will  once  set aside  human  desire,  or call your
Presence  into  action  to give  you  the Strength  to set aside,
your  human  concepts;  and  allow  the Light  of your  Presence
to illumine  your  Mind  and  charge  your  feeling  world  with
Its Mighty  Harmony;  then  you  will  quickly  enter  into  all
Freedom  which  is yours.
Do not longer  allow  your  human  concepts  to dominate
your  world  and  limit  you!  There  is no limitation  in all
the Universe,  but that  which  Individuals  create  for them-
selves ! I say to you  tonight,  every  one of you  has the Power
to release  yourself  at once,  if you  will!  We  see and  know
within  your  Heart  the Light,  the Power  and  Ability  which
61 62 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES
are there!  I say to you,  assert  your  Dominion!  Do not allow
your  human  self longer  to dominate  you!
Because  you  might  have  made  mistakes;  and  because
you have  surrounded  yourself  by your  own  human  creation,
still they  have  no other  power  except  what  you  give  them!
I say to you tonight:  Assert  your  Dominion  in the Power  of
the Acknowledgment  of your  Presence;  and  no longer  al-
low the outer  world,  to limit  or deprive  you  of that  which
your  Great  God-Self  holds  ready  to release  at any  given
moment;  when  Enough  Love,  Enough  Kindness,  Enough
Harmony  go forth  from  your  feeling  world  to that  Mighty
Presence.  Then,  will  the Door  be opened  wide—the  doors
of doubt  and  fear  swept  aside,  by the Hands  of your  Pres-
ence;  to glorify  you  and  send  you  forth  a Glorified  Being  of
Freedom.
No longer  need  mankind  remain  in chains  of its own
forging!  Only  as the people  refuse  to accept,  apply  and  con-
tinue  to apply,  until  the results  are there,  may  they  be de-
prived  of Freedom.
You are  Beings  of Light!  Do  not  allow  yourselves  to
linger  longer  in the world  of human  creations!  You  have
learned,  you  have  found  your  Source!  You  have  found  and
have  the Scepter  of Dominion  in your  hand,  by the Accept-
ance  of your  Presence,  your  "Mighty  I AM."  Allow  It by
Harmony  maintained,  to flow  forth  into  your  world  like  a
Mighty  River  and  produce  Its Perfection  there.
On the Planets  whose  Light  has expanded  more  than  the
Earth,  there  are those  Beings  of Natural  Light  and  Free-DISCOURSE  VIII  63
dom.  On your  Beloved  Venus,  whose  Assistance  has so long
come  to the Earth,  They  know  what  Peace  and  Harmony
mean.  They  live  in the  Glory  of Its Infinite  Expression
naturally!  So you  of Earth  shall  come  to know—notice
Those  Words—SHALL  COME  TO  KNOW  your  Do-
minion,  in the  Acceptance  of your  "Mighty  I AM  Pres-
ence."  There  is no power  of human  creation  or otherwise,
which  will  longer  have  power  to detain  you,  in your  world
of human  creation!
The Great  Cosmic  Light  has  said:  "You  must  produce
More  Light,  for there  must  come  changes  within  the Earth,
which  will  cause  It to be produced"!  Your  opportunity
is here,  Oh Beloved  Children,  if you  will  call your  Presence
forth  and  stand  by It; never  doubting  or fearing  Its Ability
to flood  your  world  with  Its Harmony  and  Perfection.
Those  who  still  insist  upon  sending  forth  discord  from
their  feeling  world,  must  reap  its result.  Make  no mistake
about  that!  How  gladly  We would  lift you  out of all those
human  creations,  if you  would  but  just  be FIRM  AND
STRONG.  Glorify  yourself  in the Fulness  of the Oppor-

Freedom  filling  your  world  and  causing  it to be the Per-

 Greg’s psychological difficulties were, I knew that
with the right hormones he could get some relief from hissymptoms. I told him that my goal was to get him off his drugsand to get his hormones in balance. He was delighted with that,since he felt foggy and uncomfortable on the medications.127 PSYCHOGENIC MEDICATION AND GREG C.  Fortunately, Greg’s psychiatrist was open to the idea of
weaning him off of these powerful drugs. He felt that Greg’snervous breakdown was an extreme stress reaction, not asymptom of bi-polar disorder, and that if Greg could addresshis issues in talk therapy he could eventually go back to livinga normal, drug-free life.
ADJUSTING GREG’S HORMONES
In my view, Greg’s weight problem was caused by a combination
of the medications he was on plus too much insulin. The factthat most of Greg’s weight had settled in around his abdomenwas a sign of over-producing insulin. So I started him onnatural progesterone right away. I did this for four reasons:
• Progesterone reduces insulin
• Progesterone regulates blood sugar levels• Progesterone is wonderful for brain tissue
(progesterone levels are 20 times higher in brain tissue than anywhere else)
• Progesterone is a natural anti-depressant
Between progesterone and the meal plan, Greg began
losing weight right away. With his psychiatrist’s help, heslowly reduced the amount of Paxil, Effexor, Depakote, andlithium he was taking. As he continuously lowered the dosagesof those lipogenic medications, his weight loss speeded up.
He got into a positive feedback loop whereby he liked the
way he was looking, which led to feeling better about himselfand making faster progress in talk therapy, which led to furthersuccess with his weight management program, and so on. Asthe weeks went by, you could see the transformation.128 THE MIRACLE OF BIO-IDENTICAL HORMONES  Eventually Greg returned to being the person he’d been
before he started the medications, minus the driven, worka-holic overlay. T oday he’s a very energetic, forward-looking manwith a lot to live for.
Greg will eventually be reunited with his wife and child.
With the help of hormones, he’ll be able to live a balanced lifethat he truly enjoys. In addition, he is now acutely aware of theimportance of balancing his son’s hormones and his wife’shormones.
Greg’s problems were strictly hormonal: too much
adrenaline, too much insulin, too much cortisol, and too littleprogesterone. Putting them back into balance gave him the“miracle” he was looking for.
THE UNDERLYING PROBLEM
Greg’s story illustrates why it is so important to understand the
background of one’s patients.
When I first talked with Greg, it was immediately
apparent that he had a classic case of ADHD. Adults with thisproblem frequently become workaholics and type A personal-ities. These people are living on adrenaline. They start out withlow progesterone levels, which causes an over-production ofinsulin. This leads to hypoglycemia and to an outpouring ofadrenaline to bring sugar levels up.
This was Greg’s underlying metabolic state. When he began
working in Las Vegas, the new element of stress was added.
Now his adrenal glands were over-producing not only
adrenaline but also cortisol (this is addressed in chapter 20).The cortisol raised his sugar levels, leading to even moreinsulin production. This led to more hypoglycemia, which ledto more adrenaline. He lost his appetite because of the high129 PSYCHOGENIC MEDICATION AND GREG C.  levels of adrenaline, leading to a body starved for fuel, which
created even more stress.
He did not have bi-polar disorder; he just had a major
hormonal imbalance. One can readily see why sometimespsychological conditions can be treated with hormones in amore effective manner than with drugs.130 THE MIRACLE OF BIO-IDENTICAL HORMONES  ADD AND ADHD—
THE SILENT EPIDEMIC
chapter FIFTEEN
I could not write a book about the influence of hormones
without making special mention of attention deficit disorder(ADD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).In my view, these two conditions are primarily related to ahormonal imbalance involving high insulin and the resultanthypoglycemia, or low blood sugar.
There are many kids with symptoms of ADD who are
struggling in school today because they have difficultiesfocusing. Often the reason they cannot pay attention in classor do homework is that they are hypoglycemic. Any time sugaris taken from the brain, the brain cannot focus. The reason forthe low sugars is that the kids are over-producing insulin.
Because of the hypoglycemia these youngsters experience a
persistent craving for foods that provide sugar, such as fruitjuice, soda, and candy. And very often kids with ADD have aweight problem, since they are continuously eating highglycemic carbohydrates.
ADHD starts out the same way—too much insulin
leading to low sugar levels. However, kids with ADHD have tocontend with another hormone: adrenaline.
131The brain cannot function without sugar, and the body
has an amazing capacity for finding ways to raise the bloodsugar level when it is low. Prominent among these regulatoryreactions is a process called gluconeogenesis, which, simplyput, creates sugar from protein. It is mediated through thesympathetic nervous system, which means the body pours outadrenaline to raise sugar levels. Adrenaline, which is naturalspeed, causes these kids to be hyperactive.
At the same time that the body is creating adrenaline, the
low sugar levels are prompting cravings for food high in sugar.Ingestion of sugar then leads to the over-production of insulin,leading to a drop in sugar, leading to difficulty focusing,leading to the over-production of adrenaline, leading to hyper-active behavior, and on and on.
Kids with ADHD are usually thin. The hyperactivity
burns up the sugar before it’s converted to fat for storage.Oftentimes the hyperactivity is masked by the child’s activeinvolvement in sports.
Kids with ADHD are treated with drugs such as Ritalin,
Adderal, and Strattera. However, approaching this conditionfrom a hormonal standpoint in most cases eliminates ADHDwithout having to resort to medication.
You can probably guess that the missing hormone that can
balance the high insulin and adrenaline levels and alleviateADD and ADHD would be progesterone. We inherit ourhormone levels from either parent. If a mother is estrogendominant, she is also low in progesterone. This can be passedon to her daughter or son. Anyone with a low progesteronelevel will over-produce insulin, thereby causing hypoglycemia,leading to ADD.132 THE MIRACLE OF BIO-IDENTICAL HORMONES  AN AMAZING TRANSFORMATION
I should mention my experience with one nine-year-old child
who had a classic case of ADHD. He had been thrown out ofevery public school in the city of Indio, California, for fightingwith other children, shoving teachers, and similar behaviors.His mother was desperate because the boy sincerely wanted togo back to school. I do not treat young children with ADHDin my practice, but I made an exception in this case.
I talked with the boy and helped him understand that the
sugar-based diet he had been eating and drinking was part ofthe problem. I told him he would be putting a cream on hislower forearm. He agreed to follow the protocol and was givena meal plan.
T wenty-four hours later, his mother told me she could
not stop crying; she had never seen her son behave so well.He did ten pages of homework—quite an accomplishmentfor someone who had never done homework before. HisADHD was gone.
In spite of his recovery, the Indio school board refused to
re-admit him into the system. I had written a two-page letterexplaining that he was better, but the educational system, notsurprisingly, proved to be blind to how simply ADHD can beaddressed.
On the positive side, he is now attending a parochial
school. His sixth-month report card was all A’s—not surpris-ing since most ADHD children are extremely intelligent.
When the boy went for his next therapy appointment, the
psychiatrist, who had been following him for his ADHD, sawright away that the signs of the disorder were gone. But whenhe asked the mother what her son was taking and she told himnatural progesterone cream, he told her to stop the cream133 ADD AND ADH D—THE SILENT EPIDEMIC  immediately, that it was a female hormone, and to put her son
back on the drugs that had been prescribed. She explained thatthe boy wouldn’t take them because they made him feel sick.He told her to do it anyway. Needless to say, the mothercontinued with the cream.
I subsequently spoke with the psychiatrist, who refused to
accept anything I was saying because there were no drug-company studies to verify it. He refused to allow his ownpowers of observation to see that progesterone was beneficial.Psychiatry developed purely as an observational science; now itis almost purely about psychopharmacology. He would ratherplace this nine-year-old boy on potentially lethal drugs, withmultiple side effects, than use a natural bio-identical hormonewith no side effects. His statement that progesterone is afemale hormone is typical of the lack of education doctorsreceive about hormones.
As stated previously, I do not treat young children that are
hyper


 better.
For ten years he’d had sex nearly every day, and the need behind this
obsession struck  him now as something like addiction. It had also never
occurred to him that other voices could speak during the act of sex. He had
obeyed the voice of desire so completely that now he found it difficult to
hear expressions  of sadness, pent-up anger, and grief. Reflecting on it, he
realized they must always have been present.
When Guy came back to Caro line, he loved her enough to be able to
thank her for having propose d a waiting period. The two started to
reconstruct a sexual relationship, beginning with simple touch. They would
lie together and easily ask each other for a gentle touch on some part of
their bodies, directing where to touch next, how long to stay in one place.Rather than finding this erotic, Guy often discovered that some touches
aroused anxiety ; at times he felt like crying. Gradually he realized that
feeling safe with women had been rare for him, and that because he felt safe
with Caroline, old wounds could be released. He found that as pent-up
emotions began to surface, he wanted to tell Caroline about incidents from
his past that he had never shared with a woman—in fact, talking to women
had never been his strong suit. He began to make links between his need to
perform in bed and his demanding, critical mother. In time it became clear
to him that at some level he felt all women were demanding, and by being a
skillful lover he could defuse  in advance their contempt for him as
inadequate.
Guy was fortunate that so much  love remained in him—many men could
have taken a decade to achieve the insight he was gaining in a few months.
Caroline did not set herself up as teacher or therapist; she follo wed Guy in
his self-discovery, allowing him to withdraw when he needed to. It became
clear to him that she had given herself permission to withdraw  as well. To
him having sex had always been a sign of intimacy; for Caroline intimacy
emer ged slowly, and agreeing to have sex with him had been only a first
step.
Some hard times followed for Guy. There were nights when he felt
aggressive or angry during sex, which led to deep bouts of guilt. His image
of himself as “lover” frayed as he came to feel the underlying rage he had
suppressed, compelling him to act out sexually what he idealized as his
inner personality. He wasn’ t the sensitive, generous, caring lover he had
fashioned himself into but a complex, and sometimes contradictory, bundle
of feelings and drives. In time this was good enough, since it was real.
Caroline realized that it was important to support Guy in his spiritual
progress; as it turned out she was quite serious about her own spiritual life,
so she was able to view this transition as more than psychological. She
believed that all the changes in their relationship were serving to bring Guy
and her into unity. To help chart their progress, she made a list of
experiences she wanted to have with Guy, noticing each one and discussing
it with him as each occurred.
I want to feel needed for who I am.
I want to feel vulnerable.
I want to feel you won’ t ever hurt me.I want to feel your strength.
I want to feel I can tell you what I most desire.
I want to feel open.
I want to feel a gentle wildness.
I want to feel one with you.
I want to feel nothing was ever better than this.
I want to feel lightness bubbling in my heart.
I want to feel profound.
I want to feel at one.
This was more than a wish list; it sent a message of desire to the universe
that she expected to be fulfille d as events unfolded. Caroline encouraged
Guy to make his own list. They didn’ t bring these lists to bed or think about
them while in bed. The point was to articulate clearly where they wanted
their path together to lead.
Marriage came a year later, by which time Guy had changed many of his
most basic attitudes toward sex. He no longer performed it without love,
and he felt able to say when his emotions made love difficult. He thought
not of sexual excitement but of being comfortable. He found that the
strongest turn-ons were silent, peaceful surroundings, tender expressions,
deep looks of desire, sparkling eyes, tentative touches, and modesty. There
were moments when he forgot about sex, lost in the sheer freedom and
openness of his own being, and these were the most sexual mom ents of all.
For someone who had spent his growing-up years drowned in sexual
experience, Guy was on his way to recovering the one thing  experience
cannot bring—the freedom of innocence.

HOW TO SURRENDER
SPIRITUALL Y, NO ACTION  is more important than surrender. Surrender is the
tenderest impul se of the heart,  acting out of love to give whatever the
beloved wants. Surrender is being alert to exactly what is happening now,
not imposing expectations from the past. Surrender is faith that the power of
love can accomplish anything, even when you cannot foresee the outcome
of a situation.
But surrendering  to another person’s ego, even your beloved’ s, is not a
spiritual act. There is a deeper, more mystical meaning to surrender. At the
level of ego, two people cannot want exactly the same thing all the time.
Yet at the level of spirit, they cannot help but want the same thing all the
time. Your ego wants material things, predictable conclusions, continuity,
security, and the prerogative to be right when others are wrong. By
definition, pursu ing these goals shuts out another person unless she falls in
line with “my” agenda or he realizes that “I” am the important  one around
here.
Your spirit is not involved in such concerns. It wants being, love,
freedom, and creative opportun ities. This is an entirely different level of
desire, and when you reach it you can share yourself with another person
without conflict. Such sharing is the core of surrender.
Most people are raised to pursu e ego goals, often without question. The
choice to remain on this level is always open. But you also have the choice
to move  onto the plane of spirit, with its very different goals. The gap
between ego and spirit is unavo idable. It would seem impossible to close
this gap, since spirit and ego are total opposites. Bringing them together is
achieved through surrender, and the only force that can accomplish it islove. Surrender, then, is the next phase on love’ s journey, whic h you enter
as soon as you choose to be in relationship.
The majority of people find themselves not in romance but in a long-term
relationship, usually marriage. This phase occupies much more of our lives
than falling in love ever could. If falling in love is a brief openi ng to spirit,
long-term relationship is the broad plateau that follows—we will simply
call this plateau commitment. Commitment is extremely difficult for many
people, and countless psychological reasons have been given for why this is
so. But the spiritual difficulty of commitment is that it throws you directly
into the gap between ego and spirit. Each person brings into a marriage a
complex bundle  of ego needs; the husband may be loving and kind, but his
ego demands that life turn out according to certain expectatio ns, and the
same may be true for the wife. A relationship based on need is not love.
Either the two egos must live in an uneasy truce or they must find another
way—surrender.
Throughout the earlier phase of romance there has been a sense of being
chosen, as if an irresistible force has invaded your heart, but in relationship
the path to love is not automatic. One must choose, day to day, to stay on it.
Rather than seeing surrender in terms of another person, we should call it
surrender to the path. The insights that arise in a committed relati onship
therefore are those pertaining to the path:
You ar e on a unique path cr eated between you and your beloved.
You find your path not by thinking, feeling, or doing but by surr endering.
Surrender r eveals the impulses of spirit beneath the mask of ego.
The path to love uses relationsh ip to move you out of your limited sense
of “I,” “me,” “mine” into an expanded identity—this is the growth from self
to Self.
DHARMA IN  LOVE
There is a fundamental mystery to the soul, that its integrity is not violated
by merging with another person. The blending of two spirits brings more to
the union than each partner started with. The process of soul-making thatused to be for “me” is now for “us.” Rumi expresses this beautifully in a
few heartfelt words:
My soul glowed from the fire of your fire.
Your world was a whispering water
At the river of my heart.
The realization that two can be as one is the essence of surrender; if
marriage were just the conjunction of two people who never departed from
the walled camp of their isolation, human existence would not be able to
scale the spiritual heights. And yet it does.
Although they may not admit it, most people secretly mourn the
transition from romance to commitment. Being in a relationship, since it
requires patienc e, devotion, and persistence, is much more difficult than
falling in love. Its spiritual rewards are won through


 from any de-struct ive
habit, you are fifty-one percent healed already. When you have a
greater desire to give up the bad habit than to con-tinue  it, you will not
experience too much difficulty in gaining complete freedom.
Whatever thought you anchor the mind upon, the latter magnifies. If
you engage the mind on the concept of freedom (freedom from the
habit) and peace of mind, and if you keep it focused on this new
direction of attention, you generate feelings and emotions, which
gradually emotionalize the concept of freedom and peace. Whateve r
idea you emotionalize is accepted by your subconscious and brought
to pass.

 195  • The law of substitution
Realize that something good can come out of your suffer-ing. You
have not suffered in vain. However, it is foolish to continue to suffer.
If you continue as an alcoholic, it will bring about mental and
physical deterioration and decay. Realize that the power in your
subconscious is backing you up. Even though you may be seized wi th
melancholia, you should begin to imagine the joy of freedom that  is in
store for you. This is the law of substi-tution. Your imagination took
you to the bottle; let it take you now to freedom and peace of mind.
You will suffer a little bit, but it is for a constructiv e purpose. You
will bear it like a mother in the pangs of childbirth, and you will,
likewise, bring forth a child of the mind. Your subconscious will give
birth to sobriety.
• Cause of alcoholism
The real cause of alcoholism is negative and destructive thi nking;
for as a man thinketh, so is he. The alcoholic has a deep sense of
inferiority, inadequacy, defeat, and frustration, usually accompanie d
by a deep inner hostility. He has countless alibis as to his  reason for
drinking, but the sole reason is in his thought life.
• Three magic steps
The first step: Get still; quiet the wheels of the mind. Enter into a
sleepy, drowsy state. In this relaxed, peaceful, receptive state, you are
preparing for the second step.
The second step: Take a brief phrase, which can readily be graven
on the memory, and repeat it over and over as a lullaby. Use the
phrase, “Sobriety and peace of mind are mine now, and I give thanks.”
To prevent the mind from wandering, repeat it aloud or sketch i ts
pronunciation with the lips and tongue as you say it mentally. This
helps its entry into the subconscious mind. Do this for five minut es or
more. You will find a deep emotional response.
The third step: Just before going to sleep, practice what Johann von
Goethe, German author, used to do. Imagine a friend, a loved one in
 196  front of you. Your eyes are closed, you are relaxed and at pea ce. The
loved one or friend is subjectively present, and is saying to you,
“Congratulations!” You see the smile; you hear the voice. You
mentally touch the hand; it is all real and vivid. The word
congratulations imply complete freedom. Hear it over and over again
until you get the sub-conscious reaction, which satisfies.
• Keep on keeping on
When fear knocks at the door of your mind, or when worry, anxiety,
and doubt cross your mind, behold your vision, your goal. Think of
the infinite power within your subconscious mind, which you can
generate by your thinking and imagining, and this will give you
confidence, power, and courage. Keep on, persevere, until the day
breaks, and the shadows flee away.
• Review your thought power
1. The solution lies within the problem. The answer is in every
question. Infinite intelligence responds to you as you call upon it with
faith and confidence.
2. Habit is the function of your subconscious mind. There is no
greater evidence of the marvelous power of your sub-conscious t han
the force and sway habit holds in your life. You are a creature of habit.
3. You form habit patterns in your subconscious mind by repeating
a thought and act over and over again until it establishes trac ks in the
subconscious mind and becomes automatic, such as swimming,
dancing, typing, walking, driving your car, etc.
4. You have freedom to choose. You can choose a good habit or a
bad habit. Prayer is a good habit.
5. Whatever mental picture, backed by faith, you behold in your
conscious mind, and your subconscious mind will bring to pass.
6. The only obstacle to your success and achievement is your ow n
thought or mental image.
 197  7. When your attention wanders, bring it back to the con-templation
of your good or goal. Make a habit of this. This is called di sciplining
the mind.
8. Your conscious mind is the camera, and your subconscious mind
is the sensitive plate on which you register or impress the picture.
9. The only jinx that follows anyone is a fear thought re-peated ov er
and over in the mind. Break the jinx by know-ing that whatever you
start you will bring to a conclusion in divine order. Picture  the happy
ending and sustain it with confidence.
10. To form a new habit, you must be convinced that it is desirable.
When your desire to give up the bad habit is greater than y our desire
to continue, you are fifty-one per-cent healed already.
11. The statements of others cannot hurt you except through your
own thoughts and mental participation. Identify your-self with your
aim, which is peace, harmony, and joy. You are the only thinker in
your universe.
12. Excessive drinking is an unconscious desire to escape. The
cause of alcoholism is negative and destructive thinking. The cure is
to think of freedom, sobriety, and perfection, and to feel the t hrill of
accomplishment.
13. Many people remain alcoholics because they refuse to admit it.
14. The law of your subconscious mind, which held you in bondage
and inhibited your freedom of action, will give you freedom and
happiness. It depends on how you use it.
15. Your imagination took you to the bottle; let it take you to
freedom by imagining you are free.
16. The real cause of alcoholism is negative and destructive
thinking. As a man thinketh in his heart [subconscious mind], so is he.
17. When fear knocks at the door of your mind, let faith in God and
all things good open the door.

How to Use Your Subconscious Mind to
Remove Fear
One of our students told me that he was invited to speak at a
banquet. He said he was panic-stricken at the thought of speaki ng
before a thousand people. He overcame his fear this way: For  several
nights he sat down in an armchair for about five minutes and said t o
himself slowly, quietly, and positively, “I am going to master this fear.
I am overcoming it now. I speak with poise and confidence. I a m
relaxed and at ease.” He operated a definite law of mind and overcame
his fear.
The subconscious mind is amenable to suggestion and is controlled
by suggestion. When you still your mind and relax, the thoughts of
your conscious mind sink down into the sub-conscious through a
process similar to osmosis, whereby fluids separated by a p orous
membrane intermingle. As these positive seeds, or thoughts, sink  into
the subconscious area, they grow after their kind, and you become
poised, serene, and calm.
• Man’s greatest enemy
It is said that fear is man’s greatest enemy. Fear is b ehind failure,
sickness, and poor human relations. Millions of people are af raid of
the past, the future, old age, insanity, and death. Fear is a  thought in
your mind, and you are afraid of your own thoughts.
A little boy can be paralyzed with fear when he is told ther e is a
boogieman under his bed that is going to take him away. When his
father turns on the light and shows him there is no boogieman, he i s
freed from fear. The fear in the mind of the boy was as real as if there
really was a boogie man there. He was healed of a false t hought in his
mind. The thing he feared did not exist. Likewise, most of your fear s
have no reality. They are merely a conglomeration of sinister shadows
and shadows have no reality.
 199  • Do the thing you fear
Ralph Waldo Emerson, philosopher and poet, said, “Do the thing
you are afraid to do, and the death of fear is certain.”
There was a time when the writer of this chapter was fill ed with
unutterable fear when standing before an audience. The way I
overcame it was to stand before the audience, do the thing I was afraid
to do, and the death of fear was certain.
When you affirm positively that you are going to master your fea rs,
and you come to a definite decision in your conscious mind, you
release the power of the subconscious, which flows in response


inescapable. By turning around and giving up the old; cleansing, rejuvenating and taking th e higher path, we can once again enjoy
the wonderful blessings of a healthy, vital life as the Creator intended us to have.

We must defy the life -robbing habits and foods by refusing to partake of them anymore. We must be willing to cut loose of the old
and like a little child once again learn the new, better ways. Surgery and drugs merely delay and antagonize the problems, rar ely
ever reaching the source of our diseases. One operation leads to another. Drugs are given to alleviate symptoms and mask over  a
deeper and often chronic condition that goes undetected and uncared for until it is often too late to correct.

There is one sure way to deal with our health problems. That is God’s way. When we follow nature, we can’t lose. It’s perfect  and
always works.  It is beyond man’s tampering and contains all the preconditions for long, healthy life. It takes a long time to develop
a chronic, degenerative disease, and it takes awhile to reverse such conditions. But it is possible if the individual can att une his or
her self to the task and have faith and perseverance in the natural healing powers of the body. I’ve worked in bowel manageme nt
all my life. I’ve tried every natural method, product or technique known to man that would care for the bowel. Of all these t hings I
can say that fasting and alfalfa tablets have done the most good of all.

Now I want to tell you that the Ultimate Tissue Cleansing System is the greatest thing I’ve ever known to detoxify the body a nd
clean the bowel. This is a recent development; o ne we have been working on all our lives. Now it is here when we need it more
than ever before. I’m not saying it’s a cure all, but that it is a very powerful beginning for a person who is working toward  an
eventual healing. Anything we can do to stop auto intoxication is going to help slow down the disease process. The Ultimate Tissue
Cleansing System is the best way I know of to accomplish this goal.

By stripping down the old, toxic mucus lining of the bowel, we remove the number one source of disease in the body. In addition,
we open up the bowel to a more efficient means of waste elimination and nutrient absorption, both of which are essential to a ny
lasting healing process. This is also the first step toward normalizing the bowel so that the friendly ba cteria will return to keep the
colon safe from putrefaction and further autointoxication. Doctor’s wishing to learn this work may inquire about classes bein g
given. Likewise, patients are being taken upon review and inquiry.

Here is a short story you migh t enjoy about one of the longest -lived men in Western history. “Westminster Abbey was begun by
King Lucius in A.D. 170. The vaults are crowded with illustrious dead whose monuments cover the walls of the vast church. One
of the smallest slabs - more intere sting than all the fine marbles to princes and poets - says: Thomas Parr of ye county of Salopp,
born A.D. 1483. He lived in ye reigns of ten kings: Edward IV, Edward V, Richard III, Henry VII, Henry VIII, Edward VI, Mary,
Elizabeth, James I, Charles I. Bu ried here November 15, 1635. Aged 152 years.’ Before Parr was interred in Westminster, his
history was carefully investigated. The parish register of his native village proves he was baptized in 1483. Legal documents  and
court entries show that he inherite d a small farm from his father in 1560, and that he took a wife three years later when eighty. He
married again in 1605 at the age of one hundred and twenty -two. When over one hundred and thirty he pled guilty, in court, to the
charge of being the father o f an illegitimate child. He was a farmer all his life. His great age attracted the notice of the King, who
invited him to the palace for a visit, as the King wished to investigate his exceptional longevity. Parr’s last days were spe nt in the
palace. Histor y says his perfect faculties and marvelous memory made him a matchless entertainer. No wonder - what
reminiscences a man, who lived in ten reigns, must have had! After Parr’s death, Harvey, who discovered the circulation of th e
blood, made an autopsy, by o rder of King Charles, to find out why he lived so long. The great surgeon’s report in Latin, still
preserved, states that Parr died from acute indigestion brought on by indulgence in unaccustomed luxuries. All of the old man ’s
organs were in perfect condit ion and Harvey describes the colon as normal in position and in other respects like that of a child.
Modern microbiologists say that in this report Harvey unknowingly reveals the secret of Parr’s long life, because his minute
description of the intestines proves that the congenital, protective flora had not been lost - Pandora’s Box - What To Eat and Why
J. Oswold Empringham, 1936

Today is a new day. We no longer have to carry skeletons in our closets. We no longer have to function on 2nd grade informati on
or even 12th grade information; we can choose what grade of consciousness we want to live in. The Muscular Dystrophy
campaign phrase “Your Change is the Key to the Cure” has more important than we realize. I would like to hand people a pair o f
invisible s cissors and ask “What is that to thee?” Use those invisible scissors, cut it off and be free. Loosen it, let it go. “He leade th
me beside the still waters...” Do you know where the stillness is? Get rid of the confusion and mental chatter that you’ve ha d in the
past. Be still and know...take a little time out...find out who you are...go forward with a sign on your back that says “Unde r New
Management!” Meet the new day with a refreshed spirit!

index is latitude, found a significant inverse correlation with solar
UVB for July.
Of the 16 types of cancer in Table 1, three have inconsistent
results in ecological studies: bladder, lung and pancreatic cancer. Bladder cancer had a marginally insignificant inverse correlation with UVB in the air pollution study,
56 and smoking is an important
risk factor for bladder cancer.48 Lung cancer is strongly linked to
smoking, but as discussed later some evidence indicates that vitamin D reduces this risk. Pancreatic cancer was directly correlated with latitude in Spain as well as in Japan.
27,34,35
The cohort study by Giovannucci et al.60 also examined the corre-
lation between a vitamin D index and cancer incidence in the Health Professionals Follow-Up Study of 50,000 male physicians. Those types with a significant inverse correlation were colorectal, esopha-geal, oral/pharyngeal and pancreatic cancer, as well as leukemia. Those with insignificant inverse correlation were gastric, lung, pros-tate (advanced) and renal cancer, as well as NHL.
Differences in cancer risk with respect to skin pigmentation can
also support the UVB—vitamin D—cancer theory because black Americans produce vitamin D from UVB irradiance at about 20% of the efficiency of white Americans.
61 In the southeastern United
States, hypovitaminosis D prevalence was 45% among blacks and 11% among whites.
62 In ecological studies of cancer mortality rates
in the United States,22,23 solar UVB was inversely correlated with
several cancers for black Americans; however, the latitudes with similar mortality rates for cancers such as breast and colon were several degrees lower for black Americans than for white Americans.
7
In the Health Professionals Follow-Up Study, black American men with additional risk factors for poorer vitamin D status had a much higher cancer incidence (relative risk = 1.57; 95% CI, 1.16–2.11) and mortality risk (relative risk = 2.27; 95% CI, 1.57–3.28).
60
For four types of cancer, UVB and/or vitamin D has directly
correlated with incidence or mortality rates: esophageal, pancreatic and prostate cancer, as well as NHL. We now examine such studies to see whether they contradict the UVB—vitamin D—cancer theory.
T wo studies reported that vitamin D was directly correlated
with incidence of esophageal squamous dysplasia
63 and esophageal
cancer64 in Linxian, China, a population at high risk for developing
esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Human papillomavirus is an important risk factor in regions with high esophageal cancer rates in China.
65,66 Human papillomavirus is also linked to risk of NMSC
and UVB irradiance.67 The finding that higher vitamin D correlated
with increased risk of esophageal cancer for men but not women in China
64 is consistent with men working out of doors more.
Several studies have found an inverse correlation between indices
for solar UVB and/or vitamin D and pancreatic cancer.10,26,27,34,35,68
However, a study of male Finnish smokers, aged 50–69 years at base-line, found that higher serum 25(OH)D at baseline was associated with a threefold increased risk of pancreatic cancer during an up to 16.7-year follow-up period (highest versus lowest quintile, >26.2 ng/mL versus <12.8 ng/mL; odds ratio, 2.92; 95% CI, 1.56–5.48; p
trend
= 0.001).69 With many articles reporting a beneficial role of UVB
and vitamin D, perhaps some unusual factors in Finland affected the Finnish study.
Prostate cancer mortality rates have a different geographical varia-
tion in the United States from that of the preceding 12 types of cancer. It has high mortality rates across the entire northern United States reasons are twofold: the surface elevation is generally higher in the western states, and the stratospheric ozone layer is thinner because the prevailing westerly winds push the tropopause higher as the air masses prepare to cross the Rocky Mountains.
One can use several ecological studies to examine strength of
association for many types of cancer: studies using an index for solar UVB for cancer mortality rates
22 or incidence and mortality rates24
and multifactorial studies of cancer mortality rates.10,33,43 Grant
and Garland’s10 multifactorial study included additional indices for
alcohol consumption, ethnic background, poverty, smoking and urban/rural residence. The associations with solar UVB remained similar to those in the original study.
22 The associations with the
other risk-modifying factors were in general agreement with the literature. However, when the study added an index for air pollution, acid rain for 1985, solar UVB was no longer a significant risk reduc-tion factor for the respiratory cancers.
56
A related study used annual average erythemal UV doses measured
by a NASA satellite with cancer incidence and mortality rates in the United States for 1998–2002.
24 Cancers with the strongest
correlations with UV were bladder, colon, esophageal, gallbladder, other biliary, prostate, rectal and vulva cancer, as well as Hodgkin’s lymphoma and multiple myeloma. Cancers with weaker correlations were breast, kidney, small intestine and thyroid cancer, as well as leukemia and non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL).
For two reasons, the cancers best satisfying this criterion are
colorectal and breast cancer. First, the statistics are robust because of the high incidence and mortality rates; second, the other risk-modifying factors, such as smoking for colon cancer and alcohol consumption for breast cancer, are less important.
Meta-analyses of observational studies have established dose-
response relations for serum 25(OH)D and reduced risk of cancer incidence for both colorectal
54 and breast54,57 cancers.
Also, in a meta-analysis of 10 case-control studies covering a
total of 8,243 cases and 9,697 control subjects in the United States, Europe and Australia, risk of NHL fell significantly. The composite measure of increasing recreational sun exposure (pooled odds ratio) was 0.76 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.63–0.91) for the highest exposure category (p
trend = 0.01).58
Consistency (repeated observation). For consistency (repeated
observation), we examined ecologic studies because several looked at many cancer types. In addition to the studies listed in the previous section, an ecologic study of cancer mortality rates in Spain used nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC) mortality rates and latitude as the indices of solar UVB irradiance and dose.
26,59 The cancers
with large significant inverse correlations with UVB indices in all four studies if iron, zinc and air pollution were also risk-modifying factors are breast, colon, esophageal, gallbladder, gastric, ovarian and rectal cancer, as well as Hodgkin’s lymphoma and NHL. Renal and uterine corpus cancers were inversely correlated with UVB in the United States but not in Spain


 an enema bag from a two gallon plastic bucket with a small plastic hose barb glued into a hole d rilled
in the bottom or lower edge. If I w ere in the business of manufacturing enema bags I'd make them hold at least one gallon.
    A word of caution to those folks who have a pattern of overdoing it, or tend to think that more is better. This is not true w hen it
comes to colon cleansing. Do no t make more than three attempts to fill and clean the colon with an enema bag. Usually the colon
begins to protest and won't accept any more fill -ups. When having colonics on a colonic machine it is a good idea to continue until
the water comes back reason ably clear for that session. It is not a good idea for a faster to have colonics that last more than three -
quarters of an hour to an hour maximum, or it will be too tiring. Even non -fasters find colonics tiring. After all, the colon is
basically a big musc le that has become very lazy on a low -fiber diet.
    I've personally administered over five thousand colonics, taught several dozen fasters to self -administer their own and stood by
while they gave themselves one until they were quite expert. In all that experience I've only seen one person have a seriously bad
result. This was a suicidally depressed water faster that I (mistakenly) allowed to administer their own colonics with my mac hine.
This person not only took daily colonics, but allowed water to flow  through their colon for as long as two hours at a time. Perhaps
they were trying to wash out their mind? After several weeks of this extreme excess, the faster became highly confused and
disoriented due to a severe electrolyte imbalance. They had to be ta ken off water fasting immediately and recovered their mental
clarity in a few days. The loss of blood electrolytes happened because during colonics there occurs a sort of low -grade very slow
reverse osmosis.

Curing With Enemas
    It is not wise to contin ue regular colonics or enemas once a detoxification program has been completed and you have returned to
a maintenance diet. The body should be allowed its regular functioning.
    But because enemas immediately lower the toxic load on the liver, I do recom mend people use them for prevention of an acute
illness (you feel like you are coming down with something), and for the treatment of acute illnesses such as a cold. I also l ike to
take one if I have been away traveling for extended periods, eating careless ly. But do not fall into a pattern of bingeing on bad
food, and then trying to get rid of it through colonics or laxative. This is bulimia, the eating disorder discussed earlier.
    The Sheltonite capital "N" Natural capital "H" Hygienists do not recommen d any colon cleansing, ever! They think that the
colon will spontaneously cleanse itself on a long water fast, but my experience learned from monitoring hundreds of fasters i s that
it doesn't really. Herbert Shelton also considered colon cleansing enervati ng and therefore undesirable. Colon cleansing does use
the faster's energy but on the balance, colon cleansing saves more work on the part of an overburdened liver than it uses up.

Chapter Five
Diet and Nutrition

From The Hygienic Dictionary
Food. [1] L ife is a tragedy of nutrition. In food lies 99.99% of the causes of all diseases and imperfect health of any kind. Prof.
Arnold Ehret, Mucusless Diet Healing System. [2] But elimination will never heal perfectly just so long as you fail to discon tinue
the supply of inside waste caused by eating and "wrong" eating. You may clean and continue to clean indefinitely, but never with
complete results up to a perfect cleanliness, as long as the intake of wrong or even too much right foods, is not stopped. Pr of.
Arnold Ehret, Mucusless Diet Healing System. [3] Cooked food favors bacterial, or organized, ferment preponderance, because
cooking kills the unorganized and organized ferments, and both are needed to carry on the body's digestion. Raw foods –fruits and
veget ables –favor unorganized ferment digestion, because these foods carry vitamins, which are unorganized ferments –enzymes.
Dr. John.H. Tllden, Impaired Health: Its Cause and Cure, 1921.

    Recently, my younger (adult) daughter asked my advice choosing be tween a root canal or having a bridge made. This led to a
discussion of her eating habits in general. Defending her currently less -than-optimum diet against my gentle criticism, she threw
me a tough riposte. "Why," she asked, when I was raised so perfectly  as a child, "when I ate only Organic food until I was ten and
old enough to make you send me to public school where I could eat those lousy school lunches" (her unfeeling, heartless mothe r
home -schooled her), "why even at that young age, (before she spent  her adolescent rebellion eating junk food) why at that point
did I still have a mouthful of cavities?" And she did. At age ten my daughter needed about ten fillings.
    This beautiful daughter of a practicing naturopath had received what, at the time, I  considered virtually perfect nutrition. She
suckled hugely at her mother's abundant breast until age two. During this time her mother ate a natural foods diet. After wea ning
my daughter got only whole grains, a little fresh goat's milk from my goat, fruit s and lots of Organic vegetables. I started my spa
when my daughter was about five years old and from that point she was, like it or not, a raw fooder. And all that raw food wa s
Organic and much of it from Great Oaks School's huge vegetable garden.
    For my daughter to develop cavities on this diet is reminiscent of Woody Allen's joke in his movie "Sleeper." Do you recall t his
one, made about 1973? The plot is a take off on Rip Van Winkle. Woody goes into the hospital for minor surgery. Unexpectedl y
he expires on the operating table and his body is frozen in hopes that someday he can be revived. One hundred and fifty years  later
he is revived.
    The priceless scene I always think of takes place in his hospital room immediately after he comes to co nsciousness. The doctor
in charge of his case is explaining to Woody what has happened. Woody refuses to believe he died and was frozen, asserting th at
the whole story is a put on. Woody insists that the 'doctor' is clearly an actor hired by his friends! I t absolutely can't be the year
2123. 'Oh, but it really is 2123,' insists the doctor. 'And it is no put -on by his friends; all his friends are long dead; Woody knows
no one at all in 2123 and had better prepare himself to start a new life.'
    Woody stil l insists it is a put on. "I had a health food store," he says, "and all my friends ate brown rice. They can't be dead!"
    And my perfectly nourished daughter couldn't have developed cavities! But she did. And if she cheated on her perfect diet, ba d
food could not have amounted to more than two percent of her total caloric intake from birth to age ten. I was a responsible mom
and I made sure she ate right! Now my daughter was demanding to know why she had tooth decay. Fortunately, I now know the
answer. T he answer is rather complex, but I can give a simplified explanation.

The Confusions About Diets and Foods
    Like my daughter, many people of all ages are muddled about the relationship between health and diet. Their confusions have
created a profitable  market for health -related information. And equally, their confusions have been created by books, magazine
articles, and TV news features. This avalanche of data is highly contradictory. In fact, one reason I found it hard to make m yself
write my own book is that I wondered if my book too would become just another part of the confusion.
    Few people are willing to tolerate very much uncertainty. Rather than live with the discomfort of not knowing why, they will
create an explanation or find some answer, a ny answer, and then ever after, assert its rightness like a shipwrecked person clings to
a floating spar in a storm. This is how I explain the genesis of many contemporary food religions.
    Appropriately New -Agey and spiritual, Macrobiotics teaches the way to perfect health is to eat like a Japanese whole foods
vegetarian –the endless staple being brown rice, some cooked vegetables and seaweeds, meanwhile balancing the "yin" and "yang"
of the foods. And Macrobiotics works great for a lot of people. But no t all people. Because there's next to nothing raw in the
Macrobiotic diet and some people are allergic to rice, or can get allergic to rice on that diet.
    Linda Clark's Diet for a Small Planet also has hundreds of thousands of dedicated followers. This system balances the
proportions of essential amino acids at every single meal and is vegetarian. This diet also works and really helps some peopl e, but
not as well as Macrobiotics in my opinion because obsessed with protein

 CHAPTER 6
:
Drinking Water and Cancer

Recently, prior to starting a 40 day fast on distilled water, I
made an
appointment with my doctor at the VA Medical Center in
La Jolla
, California.
At first the doctor was very much opposed to
a 40
-day fast, especially
since I purposed to eat no food at all,
and drink
 nothing but distilled water.
But after explaining that I have been fasting this way every
year for
 over
40 years, she seemed to be a little more receptive.  Especially after
viewing the lab results of my blood cells
, cholesterol
 levels and blood
pressure. She was amazed
to discover
 that at age 65, I seemed to have
the
“
heart of a 25-year- old
”
 – and the results of my blood test were
“
excellent.
”

My doctor asked me why I was drinking distilled water as
opposed
to
 any
other kind, which prompted me to ask her what type
of water
 she drank. I
was shocked to hear that she and her
family drink
 San Diego
’
s water from
the tap. My next question to
her was
, “Do you have any idea how many
pollutants are present
in San
 Diego
’
s municipal drinking water?” The
doctor
immediately retorted
,
“
If it wasn
’
t safe to drink, I
’
m sure they would
let
us know
.
”
 By the time I finished sharing with her what I knew
about the
chemicals and carcinogens (all at “safe levels,” according
to the
 EPA), as
well as water and its relationship to health, she
was ready
 to purchase a
reverse osmosis filter.

This is a small example of the serious problem we have
with regard
 to the
ignorance of Americans in trusting our
government with
 our health.
Regardless of where you live, if you were to
call up
 your local water utility
and ask them if there are
any dangerous
 chemicals or carcinogens in the
municipal
drinking water
, they would say yes, several, but they are all at
safe levels.  When I drink water, I would like to think that it is H
2
O
plus
nothing
: pure, clean and healthy. I do not want to be
concerned with
 many
dangerous, cancer-causing substances at “safe” levels.

Fortunately, many communities across the U.S. are voicing concerns
about the potential and known links between the chemicals found in
municipal water and cancer. Even though water utility companies are
required by law to follow specific guidelines with regard to the levels of
cancer-causing chemicals, there is much debate on what exactly are
“
safe levels.
”

As a result of much public concern, new laws have been enacted requiring
water utilities to publish the results of their water testing every year for
public review. Therein lies the problem: virtually no one reads these
reports or, for that matter, even know they exist, let alone have knowledge
of the situation. Consequently, the general public continues to drink water
that is by no means healthy or safe.

A glass of city water is not going to kill you or give you cancer any more
than one cigarette will give you cancer; it is that cigarette after cigarette
after cigarette.
O
r glass after glass after glass of tap
water. One
 of the
most serious cancer-causing chemicals found in our tap water was put
there by the water utility company,
“
for our safety and health.
”
 Chlorine is
widely known to cause cancer in humans, yet it is the safest chemical
available to control water-borne diseases. Not only is chlorine a
carcinogen, but when it comes into contact with humic acid (decayed plant
and animal matter), it creates Trihalomethanes.

 Some
THMs
 are:

Chlorodibromomethane
Chloroform
Bromoform
Lodoform
Dichlorobromomethane
Fluoroform
Chlorodifluoromethane

Now, as a result of adding one cancer-causing substance, chlorine, we
have eight carcinogens which are linked to rectal, bladder and pancreatic
cancers. Yet another chemical added to our water for our health and well-
being, fluoride, has also been determined to cause cancer. The national
toxicology program study found that fluoride is linked to cancers affecting
the pharynx, mouth and rectum. Another study published in the Journal of
Environmental Pathology, Toxicology and Oncology found fluoride directly
linked to a rare bone disease, osteosarcoma.

Most people are aware that there are hundreds of chemicals being
released into the environment every year; yet none of these is being
tested to determine whether or not they cause cancer in humans, or at
what specific level they are deemed to be safe.

With thousands of chemicals found in our nation
’
s water and food supplies,
imagine what astronomical combination of compound chemicals could be
created exponentially. If the result of combining chlorine with humic acid
can create eight carcinogens, then what can the result be of mixing
hundreds of unknown chemicals on the environment or our bodies?

No water utility has the ability or technology to remove this
soup
of
potentially hazardous chemicals from our water supplies.
Keep in
 mind that
this is true with most bottled water companies,
the majority
 of which obtain
the water they bottle from the
same source
 as the water utility.

Many experts believe that the majority of disease in the
world today
 comes
from our unhealthy drinking water in
combination with
 dehydration (not
drinking enough water). So if you want
to live
 healthier and longer, drink
plenty of pure, clean,
healthy distilled
 or purified water and eat plenty of
fresh fruits
and vegetables
.

CHAPTER 7
Does Bottled Water
Provide Health Benefits?

What’s In Your Bottled Water – Besides Water?

Twenty-nine brands have ignored California’s new disclosure law. More
than a quarter of the water bottles purchased in California did not list
certain consumer information on the label or failed to provide a water
quality report when contacted by EWG, as is required under state law.
These brands include Fiji Natural Artesian Water and Green Planet Pure
Handcrafted Water.”
NRDC
 is the nation
’
s most effective environmental action group, combining
the grassroots power of 1.3 million members and online activists with the
courtroom clout and expertise of more than 350 lawyers, scientists and
other professionals.

The New York Times
 calls NRDC
“
One of the nation
’
s most powerful
environmental groups.
”
 The National Journal says they
’
re
“
A credible and
forceful advocate for stringent environmental protection.
”

Isn
’
t bottled water safer than tap water?
2.

Can bottled water actually be unsafe?
3.

Could the plastic in water bottles pose a health risk?
4.

How can I find out where my bottled water comes from?
5.

How can I determine if bottled water is really just tap water?
6.

What action can I take to improve bottled water safety?
7.

How does drinking bottled water affect the environment?
8.

If I drink tap water, should I use a filter and what types of filters
are most effective?
9.

How can I obtain test results on my tap water?

Isn
’
t bottled water safer than tap water?

No, not necessarily. NRDC conducted a four-year review of the bottled
water industry and the safety standards that govern it, including acomparison of national bottled water rules with national tap water rules,
and independent testing of over 1,000 bottles of water. Their conclusion is
that there is no assurance that just because water comes out of a bottle it
is any cleaner or safer than water from the tap.
In
 fact, an estimated 25
percent or more of bottled water is really just tap water in a bottle –
sometimes further treated, sometimes not.

2. Can bottled water actually be unsafe?

Most bottled water appears to be safe. Of all the bottles
we tested
, the
majority proved to be high quality and relatively
free of
 contaminants. The
quality of some brands was spotty
, however
, and such products may
pose a health risk – primarily
for people
 with weakened immune systems
(such as the frail, elderly
, some
 infants, transplant and cancer patients, or
people
with HIV
/AIDS). About 22 percent of the brands we tested
contained
, in
 at least one sample, chemical contaminants at levels
above
strict
 state health limits. If consumed over a long period of time
, some
 of
these contaminants could cause cancer or other
health problems
.

3. Could
 the plastic in water bottles pose a health risk?

Recent research suggests that there could be cause for concern
, and
 that
the issue should be studied closely. Studies have
shown that chemicals
called phthalates,
 which are known to
disrupt testosterone
 and other
hormones, can leach into bottled
water over
 time. One study found that
water that had been stored
for


 of my son that was born
with Muscular Dystrophy. I started to give my own Urine to him since he was
three years old. I gave him in his baby's bottle and I was taken it normally.
Jn five weeks we started to prove good resuJts for he was abJe to move his joints
a little and every time he moves them a little more. It was possible for him to
stand up for a few second but at least that is something.

Robert { Mexico }
My name is Robert and I am 37 years old.
For approximately two years I have been having
problems with arterial hypertension due to the
excessive tobacco consumption, a1coho1 and bad feeding.
More than two years ago, one night, I felt I was going to die because my pressure
raised, raised and raised, to a degree it was a the point of a heart attach.
They took me to the hospital of the Mexican Institute of Social Security.
The first electronics that they processed, I heard them say what a serious cardiac
problem I had. I was hospitalized one week in total.
The arterial pressure did not lower (sometimes 150-90 or more) and the doctors
changed me to the floor for serious critical patients stay.
On the fourth day they controlled the pressure and on the seventh day they
released me.
Nevertheless, already nothing was the same.
When leaving the hospital they said the hypertension crisis was my fault.
Doctors thought that these problems were to the esophageal flow
and others to a problem of the brain.
I saw many doctors as cardiologists, gastroenterologists, neurologists,
irid61ogist, acupunturist, etc. All made a concerted effort, but they did not
manage to standardize my pressure to tranquilize me.
Until recently he took Tenormin every night. They are blockers of the pressure to
avoid the nocturnal hypertension crises. Sometimes J felt that J was going to die.
Already for several years a friend whom he is more than 70 years old but he
pretends he is as healthy as an individual of 50 years suggested me to take age
calmly with Urine.
Without great excuses 1 every day took a glass of my Urine in the mornings, but
not gave importance to this. Recently, I found a book and I decided to investigate.
What I read was much more interesting and I continued investigating.
I then bought the book named the Curative Power of Urine,
(the liquid gold of Health),
by May Ana, and the Water of the Life, by J.W. Armstrong.
But what I decided was to drink my Urine as to what I read in this page,
and yet really, I began the therapy 18 days ago.
It clarified that I did not need to consult any doctor.
What could I lose if the Urine is sterile and it does not produce any disease?
106 Today, after 18 days I have initiated the therapy and the anxiety and the fear
which preceeds to a hypertension crisis have disappeared 90 percent.
In general I feel far better and I am recovering my original perception of things
much better. I also encounter better flavor of foods.
J have better digestion and little by little J have been recovering my tranquiUity.
My pressure has been normal 115-80 118-80 with a pulse of 75 per minute.
That f did not even have before the crisis of two years ago.
I suppose that still I am not cured, but have taken the first step towards my
definitive treatment. 1 offer my testimony to those in case it serves to them as
something. I hope that they are animated to put in practice this therapy that is
free, in benefit of its health. Greetings and that God bless them.

In March of 1999 the last of the my three children" Lucia" I gave her birth.
I noticed that a muscle grew of considerable form in my abdomen.
I returned to the doctor. He began to examine and between analysis, ultrasounds,
x-rays, studies of bone marrow and others; they finished diagnosing
" LEUKEMIA" to me. According to the doctor, my problem took but of a year.
As it is logical, the tears came and other thousand questions.
J initiated fasting and J deaJt to face my disease with vengeance.
That disease was mine and it would be with me all the way that I had left of life.
One night I woke up contents. I deduced that during my dream my Celestial

1 put myself in his hands and 1 entrusted much to my family above.
That night I found half of my strength and other half I obtained it when I finished

After reading the book, the 19 of September of 1999, at 9 in the morning,
I did the first taking of my Urine promising to my Celestial Father that I will take it

 magnificent A wareness that you
truly are. Isn’ t it  ironic that nega tive feelings, the one thing we do everything we
can to avoid, are the very thing that will liberate us?
“What hurts you, blesses you. Darkness is your candle.”
Rumi
Use eve ry negative emotion that appears as an opportunity to permanently free
yourself from that negative emotion. As my teacher said, a negative emotion only
arises w hen you ’re ready to be free of it. W elcome the emotion,  without trying to
change it or get rid of it. Y ou are the Infinite Being, and welcoming is your very
nature. W elcome every negative feeling until you are free of them all forever.
“It is possible to be in very ‘peaceful’ surroundings and yet be tormented, and it
is po ssible to b e in dangerous, noisy, negativefeeling surroun dings and yet be
entirely at peace.”
Jan Frazier, fr om  Opening the Door
How do  you welcome feelings  about subjects that you have a strong opinion
about, or a strong stance against, like cruelty to animals?
Understand that  the bad feeling s you feel around that subject  are causing you
harm an d are not helping wha t you care about. W elcome the sensations and
feelings that the subject may ev oke in you. W elcome your disapproval, welcome
the feelings of unfairness and injustice. Keep welcoming u ntil there is no
sensation or feeling left when you think of the subject.Y ou mig ht think that you don’ t want to stop feeling the pain  about a subject,
because then you’ll stop caring  about it. But this is a story the mind is telling
you, and  the very opposite is tru e. Y our strong resistance to a subject ener gizes it,
adding a  lot of ener gy and power that makes it bigger. So when you release your
negative feeling s around it, you are releasing all the ener gy you have focused on
it, and you are disempowering  the  circumstances surroundin g the subject.
W ithout that negative emotion, your love and compassion, which will naturally
arise in place of  the negative em otions, have atomic power, and they can make a
huge dif ference in the world.
Let me tell you  about Lester Levenson. Lester became enlightened through
releasing all of his negative emotions and beliefs over a three-month period. Prior
to this, Lester had many hea lth problems, including depression, migraine
headaches, gastrointestinal imbalances, jaundice, an enlar ged liver, kidney
stones, spleen trouble, hyperaci dity, ulcers that had perforated his stomach and
formed lesions, and coronary heart disease.
One by one every disease and  af fliction disappeared as Lester released his
suppressed nega tive feelings. Lester called his method of releasing negative
emotions “The Sedona Method,” and under the guardianship of one of his
students, Hale Dwoskin, who is featured in both The Secr et  and  this book,
Lester ’ s method continues to reach many the world over.
“I was letting go and undoing t he hell I had created. By squaring all with love,
trying to love rather than trying  to be loved, and by taking resp onsibility for all
that was  happen ing to me; findi ng my subconscious thought and correcting it, I
became freer and freer, happier and happier.”
Lester Levenson
“Think o f one painful memory from early life, one terrible regret that has been
hidden. Look at all the years and years of thoughts associated with that single
event. If  we could surrender the underlying painful feeling, all of those thoughts
would disappear instantly, and we would for get the event.”
Dr. David R. Hawkins, fr om  Letting Go
When we release or welcome a suppressed feeling evoked from a memory, no
matter how far back that memory goes, all the hundreds and thousands of
thoughts attached to that memory will be released with the feeling. There’ s
nothing better than doing this! The lightness, the happiness, an d the “high” you
feel as you release the feelings a ttached to painful memories cannot be described,
not t o m ention h ow completely your life changes. Y ou will know with certainty
that thos e suppr essed feelings have been af fecting the health of  your body when
you release them. And when yo u see all the circumstances of your life begin to
change f or the better, as they most definitely will, you will know through your
own experience that those feelings were holding your life back too.
I once did this p ractice on a hurtful childhood experience that had stayed with me
all my life, and I can now no longer remember what the exper ience was; I only
remember releasing it. When I released the hurtful feeling that the memory
evoked, it took all of the thoughts of the memory with it, so much so that the
memory itself vanished!
Hurtful memori es are heavy bu rdens for us to carry; they get in the way of us
having t he life we deserve, and they’re not who we are. Y ou ca n free yourself ofpainful memories.
“Notice the feeling  beh ind every th ought and it will dissolve. It’ s a self-cleaning
mechanism. Us e the shortcut of dissolving feelings to dissolve hundreds of
negative thoughts by welcoming the feeling.”
My teacher
It’ s inspiring to know that releasing just one negative feeli ng will take out
hundreds if not thousands of negative thoughts with it. As you dissolve your
negative feelings, you take out thoughts of doubt, unworthiness, needing
approval from others, insecurity, lacking confidence, and every other kind of
negative though t that holds y ou back from a life filled with wonder and
continuous happiness. W ith every negative feeling that is released, your life will
soar.
The Super Practice
I want to share with you an in valuable practice that my teacher gave me that
changed my life, and that I continue to use every single day. This is a simple but
powerful combi nation of the tw o most important and vital prac tices in this book
—welcoming an d staying as A w areness. My teacher says that w hile you stay as
A wareness, the body is an autom atic self-cleaning mechanism. What that means
is th at while you stay or rest as A wareness, the trapped ener gy from every
negative emotion is unwinding automatically and being released from your body
by itself! Y ou can sometimes fe el the ener gy unwinding around the area of your
chest.
Step 1. W elcome Anything Negative
Open your heart and welcome any negative reactions, negative feelings, negative
sensations, negative thoughts or problems, in the moment they appear.
Step 2. Stay as A war eness
Stay as A wareness by keeping your attention wide like the lens on a camera, so
it’ s not focused on any detail.
Because A wareness is naturally welcoming, you will find after doing the Super
Practice for a w hile that the t wo steps mer ge into one. In the moment you
welcome, you’ll find that A wareness is instantaneously present.
Since do ing this practice, I’ve noticed that negative emotions an d reactions have
become much weaker and eva porate quickly. I even reached a point where I
loved a negative emotion or reaction to come up, because it not only reminded
me to welcome it and stay as A wareness, but it felt so good  when it dissolved.
I us e the same practice when a negative situation, circumstance, or problem
appears. I open my attention, open my heart, and welcome the negative feeling
about th e situati on, and then I stay as A wareness the best I can. (A way to stay as
A wareness that I have found to be invaluable is to love A wareness. Simply byloving A wareness you are giving your full attention to it.) I find that the negative
situation change s very soon af ter I do this practice. It actually must change,
because our resistance is what holds a negative situation to us!
“In the state of that awareness, all suf fering ceases.”
Jan Frazier, fr om  When Fear Falls A way
A few years ago, I went through an event that would be considered by most
people intensely scary and stressful. However, due to welcoming and staying as
A wareness, the event didn’ t af fe ct me the way it would have be fore I knew these
practices.
W ildfires were threatening to d estroy the community I live in.  I was evacuated
from my house, yet felt a peaceful state of calm about the safety of my home. I
felt calm because I was fine with whatever happened. I had evacuated, and if I
had lost my house, I absolutel y knew it would be for the b est, and that life
needed to take m e in a dif feren t direction. The fire was out of control for many
weeks, d estroying everything in  its path. Eventually it loomed closer to my home
and was burning houses in the road where I live. But I felt no fear, and no
attachment to any outcome. I knew that I would remain happy no matter what
happened. W ith no resistance to any outcome, my

undergo an 11 -day treatmen t of healing absti-
nence from food and water. Vladimir and Elena
answered that children were waiting for them in
Podolsk and they needed to return. I gave them
HA guidelines and said that Vladimir would be
able to undergo his first full treatment course at

gave my recommendations and said goodbye af-
ter a 2 -hour conversation. They thanked me and
promised to call during and after the treatment
and follow all instructions strictly. It seemed to
me then that they  really embraced hope for re-
covery.
A month later, I saw Vladimir and his wife
again. They came to Moscow especially to meet
with me. He came to the apartment himself,
without his wife’s support. Their eldest son came
with them. We went into the room and sat down.
Vladimir started talking about his HA treatment
and how everyone supported him, including his
children. His wife underwent a 7 -day course too.
The results were apparent. Vladimir began to
move around independently and his motor

that he gradually started to do housework — he
made tables, chairs, and carved wood. I’m sure
that this pastime will help him fight the disease.
A goal had appeared in his life. Vladimir and
Elena decided to undergo the next treat ment
course (11 days) together to improve and con-
solidate their results. Elena started thanking me
for her husband’s results, but I told her that he
had enough strength to help himself. I was really
happy that they had such a wonderful and affa-
ble family. Vladimir underwent several more
HA treatment courses and got a job in Podolsk.”

I believe that all of these amazing cases of heal-
ing depended only on people who tried to fight
for their lives and chose the healing abstinence

haven’t stopped them. Their exemplary courage
and will helped them fight the disease. I want to
note that the body definitely heals faster and the
treatment is more effective at the early stages of
the disease. That’s why I sincerely advise  you to
take care of your health as early as possible in or-
der to prevent the disease from taking severe
forms.
 That’s what Herbert Shelton, a great therapeu-
tic fasting promoter and practitioner, says about
the treatment of multiple sclerosis:
 “I remember one surveyor whose condition
got worse so much that he was forced to quit his
job and let others do it. He’s been under the su-
pervision of the best Western neuropathologists
for several years. They warned him from the very
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frbeginning that his condition wo uld quickly
worsen and honestly admitted that they had no
cure for multiple sclerosis. They told him the
truth. Nevertheless, after spending 7 weeks at the
Institute of Hygiene, he left it, returned home,
and resumed his job. It doesn’t mean that he had
fully recovered after a 7 -week treatment course,
but he felt so much better that he decided to
leave the Institute of Hygiene. It was a mistake,
especially if we are to consider the severity of his
disease. Unfortunately, many patients with mul-
tiple sclerosis make this mistake. They feel so
happy that the most painful symptoms are gone
that they often no longer want to make an effort
to restore their health. They decide that they can
take care of themselves. After an initial improve-
ment, they believe that they can continue

sional supervision. Sometimes they are lucky,
but in most cases, they aren’t. The results of fast-
ing can be much better under control and super-
vision.
The word "sclerosis" means coarsening or
hardening. It’s associated with the hardening of
a certain part of the body as a result of inflam-
mation. In the nervous system, sclerosis is the
excessive and unsystematic growth of connec-
tive tissues (connective tissue hyperplasia) of
nerve cells.
Multipl e sclerosis, also called disseminated
sclerosis or Charcot's disease, is characterized by
the hardening (sclerosis) that affects distinct ar-
eas scattered throughout the brain and the spinal
cord. These hardened areas vary in size between

tered throughout the brain and the spinal cord.
The autopsy revealed the damaged isolating
layer of the nerve cells, which have fused with fi-
bers. I emphasize that these data are autopsy re-
sults, which revealed that the cause of the disease
is inflammation, not sclerosis or hardening. A
person dies after suffering from multiple sclero-
sis for 15 or 20 years, and an autopsy is per-
formed. The state of the brain and nervous sys-
tem is examined very closely. It’s discovered that
the course of the disease is reversible. Patients
may have symptoms like tingling, prickling,
ringing in the ears, tremor, fever, catalepsy, in-
sensibility, numbness in different limbs and the
body. Later, when the disease develops further,
they suffer from weakness  in the legs and
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frdifficulty walking, shuddering and involuntary
sharp movements of legs, difficulty speaking,
awkwardness, and hand tremor increases when
they try to pick up or grab something. They have
constipation and difficulty urinating.
Sometimes, these symptoms remain mild for a
long time. They may even disappear completely,
without recurring for many years. This symp-
tom relief indicates disease reversibility at its
early stages. About half of such patients become
capable of working after being sick for 25 years.
This fact demonstrates how slowly sclerosis may
develop. There’s enough time for its effective
treatment. I’ve previously stated that there are
no identical cases in symptoms or disease pro-
gression. This statement is true not only for mul-
tiple sclerosis, but also for any other disease.
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frThere are no bacteria or viruses found responsi-
ble for this condition. Its cause is unknown.
However, there’s an assumption that it may be
of an infectious nature. No treatment has ever
been effective.
How can w e have successfully treat a disease if
its cause is unknown?
Medical books usually state the following about
this disease: “Its cause is completely unknown...
there is no specific or truly effective treatment...
it’s always a chronic disease... a complet e recov-
ery is very questionable...” Of course, we can’t
expect a full recovery if the cause of the disease
is unknown. Moreover, we stubbornly don’t
want to admit that we should consider unhealthy
lifestyles and the environment surrounding a
patient in search of its causes. These are true
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frcauses of organic and functional changes and
bodily deterioration. We can say that the search
for a specific cause of the disease is over. The
time has come when we must finally admit that
unhealthy lifestyles and bad habits cause this dis-
ease and impairment. When we realize and fix
that, it will be possible to cure thousands of peo-
ple who are now considered terminally ill pa-
tients.
I’ve never had any opportunity to treat multiple
sclerosis at its early stage, so I can only assume
that if such patients were treated by hygienists at
once, their recovery rate would be higher. In fact,
I could have brought some patients from a com-
pletely  helpless state back to life and restore their
work capacity. It surely proves the benefit of
