HOLISTIC SUCCESS FOR LIFE!

Mon, 13 Feb 2012 13:49:17 +0100

Short term quick fixes like ‘managing stress’ do not last long and we revert back to old patterns. Prolonged stress leads to poor work performance, a drop in productivity & an unbalanced lifestyle.

The long term answer lies in a holistic approach. This means that we acknowledge all parts of your well being and create a balanced approach to attaining the goals you set for yourself.

We need to find the cause of the cause! We have to gain a deeper understanding of how our conscious & subconscious minds interact according to the laws of Quantum physics. This is why Einstein made his famous quote, “No problem can be solved by the same consciousness (thinking) that caused it!”

Through the Just Being™ Healing Program I will show you how your conscious mind & subconscious mind can cooperate & align, allowing you to make the changes you desire, utilizing your whole brain to achieve your goals and good intentions.

RATE YOUR STRESS LEVEL, ENERGY LEVEL & PRODUCTIVITY

ON A SCALE OF 1-10 (1 is Poor & 10 is Excellent)

1. What is your current stress level? 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

2. What is your energy level at? 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

3. What is you level of productivity? 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

4. Perform this Life Assessment

On a scale of 1-10 (1 = poor; 10 = excellent) rate yourself in each life area below and then state what you need to do in order to BE a TEN!

HEALTHY & HAPPY CHOICES FOR 2012

Tue, 10 Jan 2012 05:28:18 +0100

Happy 2012!!! 2011 was a tough year for most people around the world, but 2012 is looking good! Major shifts and changes are going to occur around our world during 2012 – So, you better prepare as many of these shifts will be happening within you!

The Power that we have as human beings is CHOICE. We hear about this from everyone but we don’t understand it and realize how powerful it actually is. Let me explain. Just stop and think for one moment. Think of the many negative ways you have reacted to situations through your negative thought programming and emotions. It’s an impulsive automatic reaction, which was learnt through choice many years ago – You just have not realized it!

Yes, we cannot control everything in life that happens to us, certain incidents, suffering and loss. So we need to let go of the ‘uncontrollable’ in the hands of the universe and focus our attention on what we can control: OUR CHOICE! How we react and respond to these life situations.

Ask yourself, “Do I want happy & healthy consequences as a result of my choice?” Is reacting in anger going to bring you a happy consequence, no matter who you think is right or wrong? This is a conscious choice you make in each moment. You achieve this by first stopping, taking a step back, and look at the big picture of how you would normally react. Then trust your intuition, your inner voice, it knows, WE ALL KNOW WITHIN HOW WE WANT TO BE IN THE WORLD. From your heart space, you are able to make healthy conscious choices for yourself so you respond with your words, thoughts, emotions, feeling and actions in a manner which brings about healthy & happy consequences.

Please contact the Just Being Holistic Centre on 031-5731637 for an appointment or more information on how the Just Being™ Healing Program, Hypnotherapy and Matrix Energetics can assist you with creating these healthy choices and sticking by them

I will be presenting a 3 hour Saturday morning workshop in February which will incorporate the Just Being Healing Program, Hypnotherapy and Matrix Energetics, and how these consciousness technologies allow you to make healthy choices and stick to them! We all have good intentions, so why do we give up so easily or not follow through with our goals! Stay tuned!

I am giving a 20 minute free introductory presentation with Q & A after, for businesses, groups and organizations. Please email me at warrenvz@iafrica.com if your business is interested in a presentation on any health related topic that would benefit your organization to better manage stress in the workplace, create a more balanced lifestyle, which results in an increase in productivity if you have healthy happy employees! This is a holistic approach with the latest cutting edge technologies from around the world!

Enjoy a great 2012! MAKE HEALTHY CHOICES NOW!

A BALANCED LIFE!

Tue, 06 Dec 2011 07:24:27 +0100

We all desire a life of good health and vitality. In order to realize this we need to incorporate a balanced lifestyle! Our goals in the areas of mental & emotional health; spiritual well being; exercise & nutrition; personal & social development and financial & business goals need to be well balanced.

Stress and a downturn in the economy can throw our lives out of balance. We often then opt for quick fixes which is detrimental to our health, well being and longevity!

These are five of the most effective ways of dealing with stress and increasing your energy!

1. Chiropractic: Chiropractic works from inside out, treating the cause. Your spine houses your nervous system which affects your immune system, blood flow and your energy flow. Chiropractic adjustments ensure your nervous system is functioning optimally, allowing your immune system to be optimal & energy & blood to flow.

2. Acupuncture: Acupuncture is so effective in stimulating energy flow and blood flow. It can be used for the treatment of many ailments, physical & emotional, examples being depression & infertility and many others.

3. Hypnotherapy: Hypnosis is 'focussed attention'! - allowing your subconscious mind to manifest what your conscious mind desires, allowing your conscious & subconscious to cooperate in order to achieve your goals. You may consciously desire some change, but an old subconscious pattern sabotages you. These old negative patterns need to be replaced by healthy ones. Can be used to stop smoking, for weight loss, anxiety, insomnia & fear, and to focus on business and life goals!

4. Matrix Energetics: ME allows you to quickly access your natural alpha state, 24/7, so you can remain in your heart and enjoy life with love and compassion for yourself and others, allowing a space where miracles occur.

5. Just Being Healing: A Just Being Healing session incorporates all four treatments, chiropractic, acupuncture, hypnotherapy & matrix energetics into one session giving you the most optimal & unique mind and body healing for change and transformation!

Holistic Success in Business

Wed, 17 Aug 2011 07:34:46 +0100

The Objectives of the Holistic Success in Business Program are:

1. To Eliminate Stress

2. To Increase Energy

3. To Increase Productivity – in ALL areas of your life!

The long term answer lies in a holistic approach. This means that we acknowledge all parts of your well being and create a balanced approach to attaining the goals you set for yourself.

No one sets out in life to have poor health, lack of energy, divorce or financial ruin! So, why does this so often occur? We need to investigate the cause of the cause – only then can find the sustainable solutions we desire.

In most cases we are treating the symptoms and not the cause. We may think we are treating the cause but we are not - if you removed the cause you would not have the problem.

Through the Holistic Success in Business Program I will show you how your conscious mind & subconscious mind can cooperate & align, allowing you to make the changes you desire, utilizing your whole brain to achieve your goals and good intentions.

Chiropractic & Innate Intelligence!

Tue, 19 Jul 2011 06:50:14 +0100

How can Chiropractic influence your Innate Intelligence?

The philosophy of Chiropractic is based on the premise that the body has the ability to heal itself. This premise based on the innate intelligence of the human body has existed since ‘the beginning’, long before Chiropractic came along in 1895. Therefore, whether you ‘improve’ on your innate intelligence by getting adequate sleep and rest, through proper nutrition, a positive mental attitude, prayer, laughter, a chiropractic adjustment, a de-stress massage, experiencing unconditional love in your life, doing a kind deed for someone etc. - These will all have a positive impact on your psychoneuroimmunology. This much has been proven!

In fact research has shown that laughter increases the size of your arteries and stress decreases the size of your arteries – very important information to know I’d say!

But, let’s go back to innate intelligence and chiropractic. Chiropractors hypothesize that an adjustment or manipulation to the spinal column which houses your central nervous system may have a positive effect when one releases fixations and subluxations of the spine. A reduction in pressure from the facet joints and surrounding tissue may allow for an increase in blood flow, nerve flow, energy flow and as a result a greater expression of your immune system response. This allows for a greater ability and freedom of expression of your innate intelligence. When chiropractors get some amazingly unexpected results from adjusting the spine, then you realize the power of the body, mind and spirit when it is free of restriction, attachment and fear. However, one cannot always reproduce the same results on everyone. Everybody is different and has a unique make-up of genes, cells and nervous system. So, as chiropractors we cannot claim to cure anything. We can only facilitate and let the body respond and do the rest.

Chiropractic philosophy is based on this theory, premise, assumption, principle, - that the body has the ability to heal itself through this life force, this nerve impulse, called innate intelligence, physis, vitalism, chi and the bio-electrical phenomenon, said Jim Parker. Chiropractors stimulate this life force by way of manipulation and adjustment to the spinal column, which houses the nervous system.

Parker went on to suggest that one could not analyse, predict or measure the immeasurable i.e. the life force, energy, innate intelligence - this is what medical science has difficulty with. Although we do need protocols and standards to practice by, it needs to be seen in a holistic framework, that the human body is not a machine, and that there is an infinite innate wisdom at work that cannot be measured or fit into any fixed framework or paradigm.

The Power that made the Body Heals the Body!

How to Utilize your Innate Intelligence?

Tue, 21 Jun 2011 07:48:32 +0100

What is Innate Intelligence?

Hippocrates, the father of medicine described it as physis where the word physician is derived from. The Greeks called it vitalism, the Chinese call it chi (energy) & in medical science it is referred to as the bio-electrical phenomenon. In the Chiropractic profession we refer to this creative healing life force as Innate Intelligence.

We all have ‘felt our energy’ or lack of it. It’s like electricity, you cannot see it but you know it’s there & it’s alive. We may feel a certain energy when we enter a room or when we meet someone. We recognize ‘team spirit’ – that certain something that is magical & can lift any team but is difficult to define or always replicate.

Most of our world is disconnected from our natural Source energy. When we are created, when egg meets sperm we are pure energy & consciousness. As young children we enjoy this pure energy of possibility experiencing wonder, excitement, no fear, unconditional love, peace of mind, creativity & endless joy in every ‘ordinary moment’.

Our separation from this pure consciousness begins when our left brain ego mind begins to develop & we are taught fear & judgment & this pulls us out of our centered & grounded heart space of the present moment into our head space of anxiety & stress & living in future & past illusion.

Some of us may spend the rest of our lives trying to reconnect back to our natural Source. Most of us however, are so hypnotized or indoctrinated by information we chose to ‘believe’ that we are not actually aware how our egoic mind has tricked us into living a ‘false reality’.

I received an email from Neale Donald Walsch (author of Conversations with God) this morning & it read, “Dear Warren, Does this describe you? Are you, like most of us, in an exhausting endless cycle that often leaves us wondering (even in what would seem our best moments), isn't there more to life than this?”

How to utilize your Innate Intelligence? Here is a spiritual practice taken from Eckhart Tolle’s book ‘A New Earth’ –

“Make a list of everyday routine activities you perform, including what you may consider uninteresting, boring, tedious, irritating or stressful (don’t include anything you hate or detest – that’s a case for acceptance or stopping what you do). The list may include travelling to & from work, buying groceries, waiting while your computer is slow, shaving, anything you find tedious or stressful in your daily routine. Then, whenever you are engaged in these activities let them be a vehicle for alertness. Be absolutely present in what you do & sense the alert, alive stillness within you in the background of the activity. You will begin enjoying the inner dimension of consciousness that flows into the action.”

Practice it. Being conscious will become you main aim & awakened consciousness will take over from ego & run your life. That’s who you really are! Totally present & aware enjoying ‘ordinary moments’ just like a child would.

Quantum Physics, Universal Intelligence, Source, God & many more names explain our Innate Intelligence. The Power that made the body heals the Body!

Practice this: Become totally present in this moment by dropping into your heart space. Take a slow breath and ‘feel’ your presence in the present moment. TRUST this moment 100% (remember trust / faith must be 100%,) – then simply begin to notice what’s different. You may notice you feel different straight away or maybe later today you notice some change or difference. The key is to just keep focusing on different.

What 4 factors Sustain your Energy?

Wed, 01 Jun 2011 07:49:59 +0100

Without energy, which is our fuel, we are nothing! We are made of energy according to the science of quantum physics and if that is depleted or very low we simply cannot function, enjoy life & achieve our goals!

This is the most common health problem facing the world today - our energy is being compromised & depleted in many different ways. The demands society places on us today demands more energy of us but unfortunately many people are turning to unhealthy options to 'keep their energy going' like pharmaceutical drugs, hard drugs, alcohol, sugar & caffeine.

Way before you become ill, stressed & depressed, your energy levels begin to slowly deplete. Your body is amazing & it puts up with a great deal of stress before it begins to breakdown. Once it begins to breakdown & your immune system has been severely compromised you are then susceptible to the many stress syndromes, auto immune diseases & cancers we see so prevalent today. It is so serious because once your immune system is so depleted, there is not much 'medicine' can do for you. Medicine is about treating symptoms & emergency situations. They do not focus on healing you mind & body holistically. So, there is a lot you need to do to not get yourself into this situation!

What can we all do to increase our vitality & sustain our energy levels so we keep a well functioning immune system?

4 BIG STEPS TO SUSTAIN OUR ENERGY LEVELS

Movement - To keep your energy, blood flow, nerve flow, endorphins & opiates in your body flowing you need to keep moving. If your body is in certain postures too long because of work & stress you body will become inflexible & stagnate & degenerate. This is why exercise is so important & why treatments such as Chiropractic or Spinal Manipulative Therapy is so effective because it can stimulate movement & flexibilty from within.

Enrichment - Science shows us that when your mind is stimulated & enriched with novelty & fascination, it triggers protein synthesis that creates new neural pathways & genes - very important for our well being & ageing.

Connection - This is our sense of purpose, that our lives have meaning & we feel connected to a greater whole. We don't feel separate or isolated. We are emotionally content with who we are & this may come to us in different ways.

Physiology - Through nutrition we can sustain our energy levels. We know sugar & processed foods is the enemy. Sugar in it's many forms in processed carbohydrates merely spike our insulin levels for us to thereafter have low energy & food cravings - so you become overweight & have no energy!

All of these 4 key factors are interconnected. If you are missing any one of these it will affect your health adversely over a period of time. I have noticed in my practice experience over 16 years that some people do 1 or 2 of these very well but can still have major health problems. A real life example would be someone who was an exceptional athlete & nutrition was excellent - however, enrichment & connection may have been out of balance & they had a heart attack at age 40. One would assume in our society that someone who was very fit & ate well was 'healthy' - but we are more than just our physical bodies.

The secret to ALL success is keeping yourself happy. Make choices, moment by moment, that make you happy.

TRUST your intuition. You do really know what you need to do!

What expands our consciousness?

Tue, 10 May 2011 10:01:50 +0100

Research shows us today that our inherited genes play a much smaller role in our lives than once thought. More important now is the environment we are exposed to & our behaviours that we learn.

The new science of genomics, brain plasticity & neurogenesis shows us that new genes are made in our brain & body through protein synthesis. The common denominators that stimulate new gene growth in the mind & body are: novelty; enrichment; wonder; fascination; change; different; meaningful; surprising & movement - It looks very much like the qualities & experiences of a child. As adults we become too left brain dominant & we lose these meaningful qualities.

Now, picture a stressful scenario - no movement, bad or same posture with computers, sitting or driving; no change in routines - same work, same thoughts, conversations & emotions - We become physically, physiologically & psychologically stuck, stressed & ill. Our minds & bodies need to move & change & grow & be stimulated or we will become depressed, ill or die prematurely.

I have seen many times in my practice experience that when patients of mine with some 'chronic conditions' change their routine or take a vacation, especially overseas so their whole environment & routine is different - that their 'condition' or problem completely goes away. After 1-3 weeks of returning home to their same mundane routine & stressors their symptoms start appearing again. This practical example really sums it up & science backs it up!

This is why I find integrating & utilizing chiropractic, acupuncture, hypnotherapy & matrix energetics so effective in stimulating the body & the mind. It's a great boost & kickstart but then you need to take over & create your own life of variety! Now you know why it is said, "Variety is the spice of life!"

Think back on your life. What have your life experiences been like when you have made positive changes in mind & body?

How deep is your pain?

Tue, 19 Apr 2011 06:38:26 +0100

We are brought up in a world of quick fixes and pain relief medications! It's simple - If your pain, stress, tension, headache or illness keeps returning, then you are treating the symptoms and not the real cause.

Visiting various doctors & therapists for your ailment or problem can be very confusing as each has their own diagnosis, terminology & treatment protocol depending on their area of expertise.

Your neck & shoulder problems can be diagnosed as: muscle tension; stress; cervicogenic headache; subluxation; vertigo; dizzyness; tendonitis; sprained ligaments; slipped disc; shoulder dysfunction; arthritis; muscle spasm; fibromyalgia; fibrositis etc.

Your lower back problems can be diagnosed as: sciatica; back spasms; arthritis; herniated disc; facet joint syndrome; sacro-iliac syndrome; bursitis; piriformis syndrome & many others...Sound familiar?!

And then you have other made up names & diagnosis like chronic fatigue syndrome; ME; polymyalgia; multiple sclerosis; motor neuron disease; autism; ADHD; many 'cancers' and if you look in the medical merck manual you will find the 'etiology' - cause unknown?

The big question then is: How can we treat something effectively if we do not know what is causing it?

So this is the major problem we are facing in modern medicine today - that the real cause of our problems & 'illnesses' are not being identified.

From my 16 years of private practice experience integrating chiropractic, acupuncture, hypnotherapy & matrix energetics I have noticed that most physical pain & symptoms have a strong mental, emotional & spiritual component to it.

What do you think? What have your experiences been when visiting a doctor or therapist?
