“The Biscuit Analogy”
In my family practice, I've stumbled on an additional couple of steps in this recipe of wellness and healing. It has to do with the body and how it has to be include into the 5- elements, mind, body, spirit and soul paradigm.
I’ll use my “The Biscuit Analogy” to explain … it is Simplistic, Practical, Scientific but very Accurate.
Note, The human body has thousands of chemical reactions going on each second. Without the proper ingredients, amounts, ratios and timing of vitamins, minerals, trace elements to fuel and catalyze all these enzymatic reactions, faults or errors will occur.
To get a golden brown batch of flakey biscuits you need;
1. Fresh and wholesome ingredients.
2. Measure all components carefully.
3. Mix or Knead so the ingredients marry into the dough which begins the chemical reactions.
4. Bake the ingredients at the right temperature for the right amount of time.
Ingredients = Diet,
Proportions = Life-stress-work balance,
Mixing or kneading = 2 types;
A. Exercise, yoga. Hands on with chiropractic adjustments and massage.
B. Mixing with a metallic wire such as with an acupuncture, dry needling and trigger points.
(In some people the flesh is so dense and tight that manual labor will not completely blend or marry of all elements, so you get an incomplete healing cycle. In this case you must use a different tool to blend and mix to ignite the chemical reaction for an effective process. An acupuncture or hypodermic needle are the only modern tool available because the steel wire will depolarize tense, tight stubborn muscles. The more relaxed muscles allow for better energy flow/blood flow which invites the best environment for a more complete healing cascade.) This needle therapy has been in practice but marginalized for a half century and it’s called Myofascial Release Therapy with Travell/Simons protocols for pain and dysfunction.
The Oven = Sleep hygiene.
You can not cheat the process or recipe because every cell in your body will know.
