Re: Fix your broken Brain

[Guest guest]

This was a good introduction to a situation which is difficult

for friends and families to deal with. Throwing drugs at a

brain/body imbalance can be a tragedy, I think of a past episode of

Star Trek Voyager when the crew of the ship is transported back in

time to the earth in the late 90's. A time traveler from the 31st

century who landed in the 1960's was now an older homeless man on the

street of San Franscisco, crazed and eccentric. He talked about how

he was imprisoned in a mental hospital and injected with " primitive

pharmecuticals " . That image has stayed with me for a long time.

I have seen times when some drugs have helped to stabilize

someone who can't maintain themselves anymore. Ideally, that would

be a short term bandaid to give some safe time to dig deeper and make

long lasting changes. Here's where complimentary therapies come into

play. Food allergies, diet, nutritional deficiencies, I suspect

chemfoods, and a lot of other angles come into play to correct the

imbalance causing the disharmony.

Unfortunately, most people don't get that type of support.

Instead the drugs keep one person manageable and shareholders of a

corporation rolling in profits. Increasing doses of more and more

potent drugs seeking to manage rather than heal eventual ends in a

bad way for the individual in need of help. Afterwards the family

sighs in guilty relief and sadness and every one is thankful the

drugs worked for a while and are ready to accept the next miracle

drug rolling down the chemical pipeline.

I had one person I was working with who had she gone to

professionals could easily have been diagnosed with a variety of

psychosis's and schizophrenia. When that angle started emerging

(didn't see it at first) I repeatedly urged her to get help from them

while we worked the nutritional angle. Unfortuneately she refused

and this person became a long term " project " with her showing up at

my workplace and other odd times. This became quite difficult to

deal with. So while we are motivated by compassion to do our best to

help we also have to tend our own sacred fire, recognize when as

healers we are in over our heads, and be humble enough to go to

others who are used to dealing with these type problems. Develop

contacts thoughout the various healing communities to help support

each other.

Complicating the factor is mystics and lunatics frequently are

swimming in the same water. Well, one is swimming while the other is

drowning. A schizophrenia can be a door that is wide open that the

person doesn't know how to close and without knowing how to control

the mind the individual can be overwhelmed by the voices coming

through. Thus sometimes an energetic/shamanic type healing is more

effective than an exclusive physical approach. Ideally we would have

healers or healer teams trained in a variety of modalities on a

number of different levels. The lady mentioned above went to India

and got her broken brain fixed by a Guru who knew how to deal with

such things. The last I heard she was okay.

Phew, that said, here are some miracles I've seen on the herb

and alternative modality front:

Wheat and dairy allergies: Remove one or the other and the person

is fine. Eating icecream everyday for a week straight and the person

is near suicidal again. Take them off the dairy and 3 days later the

person is feeling good again. Support team was critical to helping

the person get the power to make the change in their diet.

Nutritional Yeast for depression: Depression was an indicator of

some deficiency, don't know what, but the Complete Nutrition mixes of

different types fixed them up.

St 's Wort mixed with Lemon Balm: Doc , a curendero

traditional California healer and teacher, says for cases of

depression he gets 50% results from St 's wort alone and about

90% with the two herbs mixed together. I haven't sufficient

experience to back that up but I have seen in myself and one other

person that the winter blues are chased away better by the mix than

ST 'swort alone.

Great results from incorporating flax seed meal and complete

nutrition onto breakfast cereal, daily fish oils and bee pollen, and

the panther piss mix of blackstrap molasses and AC vinegar. Again,

here's the nutrition angle and I'm now nearly always suspicious of a

food allergy involved that's been interfering with proper nutrient

absorbtion. So look for an allergy while boosting the nutrient input.

Food allergies/sensativities respond good to treatment with EFT,

an energetic modality. However, if a person is already seriously

down getting them to work the wuwu mojo can be a real bastard and

results I have seen sucked. Thus we find the culprit (wheat mostly),

get them off it so they can get their head back together, then work

the energetic stuff. If they are in a good space then the EFT works

better.

Brain Clicking: Teach a person how to trip their own brains from

a lower brain state to a higher functioning state. It's what advance

yogis do but this website: www.neilslade.com teaches you how to do it

in a simple scientific manner without the cultural/spiritual baggage

that comes along with the older type training. Best thing since

sliced bread.

I rarely get a person to do all of that but usually if they are

willing to take action making some sort of change in their life

things start getting better for them. I suspect that's more

important than the individual method we're using. Work in teams we

are vulnerable alone.
