Your psychology and your biology are deeply and intrinsically linked.

Your tissues experience every thought you think, every emotion you feel, and respond accordingly.

More than just “stress causes disease”, your body is a better interpreter of your environment and survival needs than you could possibly imagine.

There is a language your body speaks and precise ways your body tissues seek to aid your survival.

The growing breasts of a pregnant woman, fingers that wrinkle when in water, eyes that dilate in darkness, hands that callous with use, red blood cells that increase at altitude, sweating when it’s hot, shivering when it’s cold.

Your body is constantly responding to every situation you find yourself in.

It is perfectly calibrated to change your blood pressure when you stand, release glycogen from muscles and liver when running, increase your heart rate under stress, perfect adaptation always.

Your emotional and psychological life is not separate from your body.

They are more closely linked than you realize.

Every emotional/psychological trauma/conflict is interpreted in a biological way by your tissues.

If you feel attacked or “soiled” you don't just suffer in your mind, your body builds cells of protection.

If your have lost your self-worth your body starts renovations to reinforce and make you stronger.

If you are “scared to death” your body builds extra lung tissue to take up oxygen.

If you are worried about your injured child your breast glands proliferate to provide nourishment for them.

If you are experiencing a situation that is hard to accept your digestive cells proliferate to better process the indigestible morsel.

Your body responds to every threat in its own way, in its own ancient language.

We have misinterpreted this language for a very long time.

We have decided that the body is messing up, that it is doing something wrong because we have failed to understand this language.

“Disease” is an error in communication and translation not in biological function.

The science of Germanische Heilkunde is the Rosetta Stone of health symptoms.

When you learn this ancient language you will understand how perfectly calibrated this biological system is.

Analyze your fears. Call them out into the light of your conscious attention. Examine them.

Are they worth sacrificing your freedom?

Other people use your fears to dominate you. Predator and Prey. The oldest game.

When you fear: disease, debt, death, sin, invaders, terror, germs, genes, god, evil, disaster, accidents, loss of freedom, poverty, judgement, or ANYTHING else someone, somewhere will exploit you.

When your perspective is limited you fear the things you cannot grasp.

Those with a bigger perspective use your fears as a way to extract resources from you.

Expand your view of the world and of yourself.

Dissolve your fears.

Live boldly.

Discover who you really are… when you do you will be fearless. 😉
I highly recommend this super fun and wholesome card game!
