Doctors cause one third of deaths
I just came across this website promoting the book: Silent Betrayal
Ilooks like teally explosive stuff:
DO WE HAVE A HEALTH CARE OR DISEASE CARE INDUSTRY?
"Medicine as an organization, acts more out of economic motives than scientific ones."
Dr. Robert Atkins - author of 'The Age-Defying Diet Revolution'
Did you know?
· Doctors Are The Third Leading Cause of Death in the US, Causing 250,000 Deaths Every Year (Journal of the American Medical Association, 2000 Jul 26;284(4):483-5)
o 12,000 -- unnecessary surgery
o 7,000 -- medication errors in hospitals
o 20,000 -- other errors in hospitals
o 80,000 -- infections in hospitals
o 106,000 -- non-error, negative effects of drugs
· In 2000 there is a doctors strike in Israel. The death rate fell so sharply (50%) during the strike that the Israeli funeral parlors and burial associations began complaining. The last time the mortality rate dropped that low was 20 years previously during the time of the last doctor's strike.
· One of the reasons the Japanese live so long is that prescription drugs are "last resorts" in Japan.

Death is caused by self destructive behavior
A look at the figures of causes of death in the USA demonstrates that it's mostly what we do that leads to the ultimate consequences.
In other words we could say:
We are always doing it to ourselves.

Interesting research findings
Here I would look for infos like the docotor's strike causing the death rate to go down. Or anything else that throws a new light on the health news we usually get and illustrates the need to depend on oneself rather than the doctor and medicine.

Healing Techniques
Healing techniques are really self healing techniques. No doctor ever healed anyone. It's just that we like to defer the responsibility, because we are scared of it.
So let's get started and share what worked for us. Or anyone we know. So we can encourage each other to pick up the responsibility again.

Emotional trauma and the consequences
Researchers claimed that over 80 % of mental illness, from depression to anxiety disorders, substance abuse, eating disordersand and even half of the cases of schizophrenia are caused by emotional trauma.
Minor traumas cause fears, anger, and resentments and lock us into patterns of thought which make us repeat the trauma through revenge, jealousy, pride, or other dysfunctiopnal behaviors, which I hope we can identify here.

Recovery of the Spirit
Many recovery professionals claim that self destructive behaviors as well as violent behavior can only be cured by a spiritual awakening or a spiritual experience.
So what is the spirit and how do we grow spiritually? I would like to discuss the nuts and bolts, the tools that everybody can use and what they did for you.

The Mind Change
Recovery taught me that I can only be happy without relying on outer sources when I realize that I am spirit, and not the ego perdsonality I used to refer to as me.
That I need a spiritual experience or awakening and that I need to constantly grow along spiritual lines.
So what is the spirit, and how do we do spiritual growth?
Let's tsalk a botu the nuts and bolts here, the tols everybody can use and should be aware of to connect the higher Self or true Self, which they say " is always happy, joyous, and free." (Recovery slogan)

Introduce yourself
Welcome to the mindchange pod.
Please give us an idea why you are here and what you would like to see in this pod.

The mindchange pod wants to explore how a change of mind can change reality, -perceptions, experiences, sickness, life and all.
Since we are living according to what we think, a change of mind can change our reality, and by changing our minds about our minds and our lives we can find a new way of being in the world.
The willingness to change the mind has been found to be the main tool for healing addictions, compulsions, self destructive habits and behaviors, anger, fears, anxiety, depression, as well as diseases related to stress and emotional trauma, from stomach ulcers to asthma, and from allergies to multiple sclerosis.
Claiming health instead of suffering diseases together with the willingness to
make the change appear to become the new paradigms of medicine and healing.
By sharing our thoughts and experiences, as well as insights from wisdom traditions, we collect tools for changing our minds so we can help others in their process.
Letting go of old concepts and of our story about our lives sets us free to living healthy as free spirits and to experience us as original expressions of the universal spirit and learn to live continuously healthy, happy, joyous and free.
