How to Heal Yourself of Heart Disease

On a physical level, the heart acts as a two way pump for the circulatory system. As such, it is the life giving organ that regulates the flow of life force throughout the body. Coronary Heart Disease is the most common cause of death in North America. As is reiterated in my previous articles, traditional medicine has a hard time identifying what causes disease and why some people get them and others don’t.

The Traditional View

Traditional medicine, or current mainstream medical practices, teaches us that all illness is the result of some physical cause. For heart disease, the cause is most commonly attributed to factors such as smoking, genetics, hypertension, obesity, diabetes, high alcohol consumption, lack of exercise and stress. Research has shown smoking appears to be the cause of about 36% of cases and obesity roughly 20%.

According to what is happening on the physical level, these are the most identifiable causes of why it manifests in a person’s body. Unfortunately, there is never a reliable, solid cause that can be pinpointed by traditional medicine and its counterparts. Why? Because the physical body is not the source of illness and disease and until the actual source is understood, the confusion will remain.

The Body Has No Power of Itself

According to our traditional thinking, we believe that all illness and disease are caused by something going wrong physically in our bodies. For heart disease, the physical cause is mainly attributed to hypertension and genetics. But these are not the real causes. Why? Because the physical level, including our bodies, is the level of effect, not the cause itself. If this is true, and if nothing physical is the cause, then what is? In the general sense, it is the mental and emotional levels, as all things exist in the mind before they become physical.

Quite practically, the physical body can do nothing in and of itself. It does not have power to create anything, including illness, sickness and disease. Power comes from being at cause, and seems the physical level is the level of effect; it has no power to create. The physical body merely reflects the mental. In other words, our physical bodies are no more than a mirror of what is taking place within us on a mental and emotional level.

The Actual Cause of Heart Disease

As unfortunate as it may be, traditional medicine is seeking the causes of illness and disease in the wrong places. In reality, something physical, like smoking for example, cannot cause a physical effect in the form of an illness or disease. Put another way, an effect cannot create another effect, only cause can create an effect. With that being so, why are there similar physical actions or symptoms shown in people who share an illness or disease? Essentially, it is because they are seeking to find a way to alleviate the mental and emotional pain and imbalance taking place within them.

It’s interesting to note that the heart is placed virtually at the centre of the body. If a person is centred, they are living from the heart in a balanced state of love and trust. A heart disorder is the manifestation of the opposite mindset. This person is fighting the current of life to the point of physical and emotional exhaustion. Often the person with heart disease seeks love through what they do for others. Essentially, heart disease is an urgent message from your body to change your perception of yourself.

As I have stated in my previous articles, this new paradigm of thinking requires us to let go of the belief that illness and disease is an enemy that serves no purpose. Everything in our life is either an expression of love or a call to love. Illness and disease, in whatever form, is a call for us to love ourselves, because we are not living out of love in an area or areas of our life. It is all designed to lead us forward in life, not to lead us backward or to destroy us.

All illness and disease is a message from our bodies, helping us be conscious of what we are not conscious of. Heart disease is a specific message that you are not allowing for the proper flow in your life; whether it’s the flow of ideas, of love, or of your very lifeblood. To bring about healing, you need to tap into the wellspring of love within you by changing your belief that love can come only from others. Give yourself the love you seek and it will always be there. Start believing that you deserve love and affection from others and that you are just as loveable as everyone else.

Once the beliefs and perceptions that cause heart disease are changed and balanced, it will disappear automatically. There is no need for any type of physical intervention, although it is encouraged that you still seek such intervention as your beliefs necessitate. All real healing requires no pills, no diet, no exercise, or any other physical treatment. This is how it works for every single illness and disease a person experiences, without exception. When we understand the real purpose of illness and disease, our lives will be changed forever. The question we need to constantly ask ourselves when we experience illness and disease is this: “My body is sending me a message, am I listening?”

The ONE Thing You NEED To Know About Illness and Disease

There is a belief system prevalent in the western world today that says illness and disease is caused by something physical in the body and that physical illness is caused by physical means. This belief is one of the greatest misconceptions, or more accurately, misperceptions, that exists in relation to health and medicine in the western world today. It is the main reason why medicine is not making any headway on any of the major illnesses and diseases currently prevalent in the world.

Somewhere along the way we developed an incorrect view or perception of what sickness really is and why it exists in the first place. Unfortunately, we are presently locked into the belief system that says we are at the mercy of all illness and disease and that there is nothing we can do about it. This is mainly due the belief that illness is caused by strictly physical sources and means and by them only.

We get the flu because we are infected with the influenza virus; we develop cancer because of cancer cells in our body; we have repetitive headaches because we do not drink enough water; or we have a sore back simply because we sat incorrectly on a chair. These are just a few examples of causes that we ascribe to our physical symptoms. In most of these cases, we are told that these physical ailments are separate from us and that we have to suffer the effects until they disappear, either on their own or through the help of medication etc.

Fortunately, we do not have to believe this any longer. Knowledge of a better way is beginning to flood the earth like rays from the sun as it rises above the horizon. It is becoming clear to many that there must be more to sickness than what is commonly believed and taught in the world as a whole.

As was introduced in my article, 3 Misconceptions About Illness and Disease, the body, in reality, does not have power to create. The belief that it can, a fundamental error, is the source of all physical symptoms produced in our bodies. As hard as it may be to accept, the body is nothing but a machine, and like a machine, it receives its directions and messages from a higher source.

What is that higher source? It is the mind, which is the only level of creation. Nothing physical is able to create anything else that is physical. The level of mind is the level of creation, aka the cause, and the physical level is merely the effects of this cause. It may seem hard to accept at first, but this is how it works. There can be nothing physical unless it first existed in the mind. For something to be in the body, it must first have been in the mind, if it hadn’t, it wouldn’t be there.

This leads us to the one thing we all need to know about illness and disease: You cannot cure it via physical means, because it is not caused by those means. What does this mean for us? It means that we do not need to seek outside ourselves for healing; we are the cure we have been looking for. Our perceptions and corresponding beliefs are what drive our physical symptoms. In this way, illness and disease is a call to lead us back to a balanced perception, to help us let go of beliefs that are hindering our moving forward in life.

Until we understand and acknowledge this, nothing will change in our health & well-being. No one will be completely free of illness and disease in the world until they realise that it is not a physical problem. The symptom may seem physical and appear in the body as something physical, but the symptom is NOT the real illness or disease. All illness and disease stems from the mind, and this is the only place it can be cured or alleviated. Therefore, the problem is not physical, it is mental. All types of physical healing or treatment are forms of magic, being based on magic principles.

Again, as hard as it is may be to accept, until it is accepted, no progress will be made in overcoming illness and disease, no matter its form. It is not something to be despised or avoided, as it contains within it the very seeds for its reversal. Every illness or disease is designed to teach us a specific lesson, to lead us forward and ultimately back to wholeness in the mind. It is futile for us to hold onto the belief that these things are separate from us, that illness and disease are out to get us.

There is nothing out to get us, because it is all just us in the first place. When we know how this works, we can begin taking back control of our lives, including our health & well-being. To know that we create our lives, including our physical symptoms, is essential to our liberation from illness and disease, as contradictory as that may seem at first. Physical symptoms exist for the very purpose that we will overcome them, so that we will learn the lessons the symptoms were designed to teach us.

Are Illness and Disease What We Think They Are?

If someone said you will catch a cold from being in a cold wind, would you believe them? How do you know you will catch a cold from the cold wind? How do you not know? In the same vain, how do you know what illness and disease are? Do you know because your parents told you? Maybe your Doctor told you? Or was it your school teacher? Whoever it was, ask yourself this question, who told them and how do they know?

Have you ever stopped to think about how you know what you know about something? Do you ever question the things you learn or hear, or do you just go along with the masses and believe whatever is popular at the time? Consider this for a second. Just because the masses believe X causes Y, does it make it true? Does the mere fact that the masses believe a cold wind causes you to get a cold mean that a cold wind causes a cold? If most people believed eating chocolate makes you fat, does that mean chocolate makes you fat?

In case you haven’t noticed, the health industry is constantly changing their tune on what is healthy and what is not, what causes a disease and what doesn’t etc. For example, a few years ago, all forms of chocolate were declared unhealthy and people were told to stay away from it at all costs. Yet, this year, the year 2012, we are now told that dark chocolate is very good for us and we are now being encouraged to eat it. How does that work?

Now, I am not saying this to beat down on the health industry, they are doing the best they can with the beliefs and resources they have. But, for all who have eyes to see and ears to hear, there is more to health and illness than what we hear through the masses. There is a simpler and clearer answer to what causes a cold and to how people get cancer.

Typically, when we think of illness and disease, we imagine something physical as being the cause of our ailment. For example, we traditionally think we can catch a virus from being coughed on or coming into physical contact with someone who is “infected” with it. We ascribe DNA and genes as being the source of our heart problems, weight issues, diseases etc etc. We blame our parents, grandparents, neighbours, pets, microwaves and so on and so forth for our health problems.

You may notice that this paradigm of health is based on one thing, “blame.” In our current society, everything else is responsible for our health and we are the victim. Nothing is our responsibility; it is all because of an “external” thing. Is it any wonder there is so much confusion and fear in the world today?

We act as though our DNA is something separate from us, even though it is part of us and within us. Huh, how does that work? It may seem humorous, but this is how illness and disease is currently viewed. When we develop an ailment or disease we are told, “There is nothing you can do about it”, “it is in your DNA”, “it is the dog’s fault”, “you smoke too much”, “take this pill and hope that it goes away,” and on and on and on it goes.

In our current framework (belief system) of dealing with illness and disease, we treat it as though it is 100% separate from us. The ailment or condition is “out there” and we are told it is trying to harm us, destroy us etc. But is this really so? When we really think about it, does this make any sense at all? Surely there is a piece of the jigsaw puzzle that we are missing?

Thankfully, there are many jigsaw pieces that are missing in mainstream medicine and the masses beliefs around health and well-being. I wrote about three of these in my previous article titled, “3 Misconceptions about Illness and Disease.” The reality is we are not separate from our health issues. They are but outer manifestations of internal causes within us. Instead of us being 100% at the mercy of illness and disease, we have 100% control over it. This may come as a shock at first, but this how it really works.

Although not intentionally, the current health framework promotes fear, hate, anger, sadness, and confusion. It reinforces the “victim” mentality and keeps people disempowered not thinking they have any power or ability to directly influence their health and well-being. As you might expect, the exact opposite of this is true. We are not “victims” to anything, let alone our illnesses and diseases. This new paradigm of looking at health promotes freedom, love, peace, power and clarity.

Have you ever considered this before? Instead of illness and disease being an enemy, it is a friend. Instead of it being separate from us, it is one with us. Instead of it being negative, it is positive. Instead of it being a nuisance, it is a gift. Instead of it being a physical problem, it is a message from our bodies reflecting our unconscious thoughts and emotions within us.

From this perspective, illness and disease is nothing but a tool to help us become conscious of that which we are currently unconscious of. It is a reflection of our internal thoughts and emotions. This is all it is. There is no need to examine DNA or any other physical thing to find the answers and cures. The cause is not physical; therefore the cure is not physical. There is nothing separate from us that we experience. Somewhere along the way, we adopted an incorrect perception of what our health issues really are.

Nevertheless, this is no longer important, as we each now have a choice. It may be a choice you didn’t think you had until now, but, yet, it is a choice available to us all. The choice is this: Will you continue to believe that illness and disease is there to attack and destroy you? Or that it is there to help and support you? One will keep you in a state of fear and confusion, while the other will liberate you and allow you to experience love and freedom. The choice is in front of you, and there is only one question that remains, what will you choose NOW?

You Are Your Life

You are the centre of your universe; as I am the centre of my universe. What you see in the world around you is, well, YOU. Hang on a minute, you are probably thinking. Did he just say what I thought he said? Yes ladies and gentleman, you read it right. YOU are what you see in the universe around you every second of every day. As an individuated conciousness, you are the centre of every thing that is happening in your life. In essence, you are your life.

Most people think in a very limited sense as is conditioned in us as we grow older in this world. We are taught in school that everything in the universe is separate and independent of everything else. Traditionally we think that no one can be the center of the universe because everyone cannot be the center at the same time. Again this is based of the thinking that consciousness is separate from itself. But in actual fact, consciousness is projected from where you are. All conciousness exists in one place and time and that is where you are.

You as a human being are consciousness itself. Every single human being is an individuated aspect of conciousness within the One conciousness. Every single one of us as an individual conciousness in connected through the One great conciousness, that which is often referred to as God. As such whichever point of view you are experiencing within a certain point of time and a certain place is a projection from you. It is this way so that you as an individuated conciousness can experience everything else from that point of view. Essentially we experience what we choose and we choose what we experience. This is the object of this physical life. The appearance that everything is separate is an illusion. In reality, every human being as conciousness is connected with everything and as such exists in a state of Oneness with all that is.

This truth holds the key to understanding why things happen in your life. Essentially what this means is that you are the creator of your own reality. God, the Source, the First Cause, or however you prefer to define Deity, has intentionally organised the universe in this way. And when you come to understand how it works more fully, you begin to see how perfect it really is. This universe is perfect in every single way possible. Why? Because the Grand Cosmic Director who organised it is perfect. A perfect universe is a reflection of a perfect conciousness.

This amazing truth applies to all areas of your life. You notice positive qualities and attributes in another because they are within you. When you get angry at something someone says or does, it is because you do that very same thing and it makes you angry. You project from your conciousness every person and every circumstance in your life. All illness is created from within, as nothing outside of you can effect you unless you let it. Essentially, every experience or situation in your life is an extension of your conciousness. The universe, or more specifically, your world, is a mirror of who you are at any given moment or point in time. It has been designed like this intentionally and purposefully, and is certainly no accident.

In order for you to fully experience yourself as the creator of your reality, you first need to be aware. Awareness means being fully concious in the moment, not lost in thought or dulling your senses with TV, music or anything else that distracts your attention. As you become aware, you will realise that you are the centre of all that is taking place in your life, your universe. By thinking that something or someone outside of you is the centre of what's taking place in your life, you are essentially giving your power to that thing in the external world.

The reality is we are concious creators, we cant be conciousness and not create. The very fact that we are conciousness with choice means we by nature and right create the reality in which we live. We therefore are the observers and the observed. We observe the very things create, and we create the very things we observe. When you truly understand this your world and universe begin to change accordingly. No longer are you a victim of circumstance or at the mercy of chance. There is no longer any room for luck, as you are the luck in your life, both the perceiver and the perception of it.

When you live from this mindset you realise that no longer do things and people move around you without your approval. It quickly becomes apparent that you are able to cause the things and people around you to move according to your will and desire. You are the centre of all that happens to you. The more you move closer to living from this reality, the more power you will have of the world outside of you. You will find that you are the master and creator of your own reality. And in a very real way you will begin to experience the reality that you are your life.
