Deep Joy Through Service

 

Imagine a deep feeling of happiness, joy, strength and fulfillment.

http://joyenergyandhealth.com/2016/09/05/deep-joy-through-service-mastery-newsletter-september-7-2016/

 

Do you think we can achieve that from sensory delights? Things like eating delicious food, drinking alcohol, doing drugs? Or even sex?

 

All these can give us momentary pleasure. But are they not fleeting?

 

What can give us a more solid, a deeper sense of satisfaction? A feeling of “deep joy?”

 

Have you not found that doing something nice for someone else gives a good feeling?

 

In the book The Blue Zones, author Dan Buettner tells of a vibrant woman in her 90s. She gets up early every day to make the drive around providing service to other elderly folks. She keeps going all day with lots of energy. She feeds people, talks to them, reads to them, listens to them.

 

And she remains young at heart. Does helping others give her energy? Does helping others feed her own health? And longevity?

 

When Dr. Shigeaki Hinohara was profiled in Japan Times, he was 97. He has written about 40 books…since the age of 70!

 

He works 18 hours a day…seven days a week!

 

Where does he get the energy?

 

He says people have it all wrong. It does not come from food or sleep. It comes from feeling good.

 

And how do you suppose he gets to feeling good? Not from food. He eats sparsely. Not from alcohol. Not from drugs. Not getting massages or any other sensory delight.

 

No. He gets it from contributing to others. Teaching, lecturing, writing for the benefit of others.

 

What can you do today to help someone else?

 

Helping others may actually be the most selfish thing we can do. Why? Because of the sense of satisfaction and fulfillment we enjoy when we do so.

 

So, your challenge: Do something truly selfish today. Help someone else. Spend time talking and listening to an older person. Email someone letting them know you appreciate them. Smile at someone on the street. Think of something. Do it.

 

To Your Joy, Energy and Health,

 

 

Matti Anttila

P.S. So far as I can tell, Dr. Hinohara’s books have not been translated into English yet.

THE APPRECIATION GAME

I am in the process of developing a unique, and very social, “conversational” game that I am currently play-testing with as many different people, and combinations of people, as I can.  If you like free-flowing conversations that are full of laughter and life, silliness and seriousness, entertainment and enlightenment check out a Game Overview and other information here: www.AppreciationGame.ca then…come play!

SHARI ULRICH– IN OAK BAY

 

A two time Juno Award winner, and member the BC Entertainment Hall of Fame, Shari was first known for her multi-instrumentalist skills with the Pied Pumkin and on as the voice of the Hometown Band.  Her career as a singer songwriter brings her to her latest release “Everywhere I Go” (Borealis Records) – engineered and produced by her daughter Julia Graff, also a multi-instrumentalist. It is Shari’s 8th solo album, and the 21st including her work with Ulrich Henderson Forbes, BTU with Barney Bentall & Tom Taylor, and The High Bar Gang.

A Blissful Drink.

Thanks to Will for this.

Yesterday Sandra brought home a kilo of cacao beans, which she toasted. I peeled most of them and decided to experiment with making a “dessert beverage.” The recipe: a handful of beans ground in the coffee mill, a teaspoon of raw sugar, a tablespoon of butter, and hot water to fill the cup. I used a whisk to froth up the butter. Delicious, and for the second cup I even add a bit of chipotle powder which gave a lovely finish.

When I went to bed, I noticed that I felt unusually blissful and nice, so this morning I looked up why this might be so. Here is what one article said:

«Cacao is considered a teacher plant on its own, and when consumed in sufficient amounts induces a very distinct state of mind. Cacao brings a warmth and light-heartedness, it makes you smile and feel good – similar to what chocolate does, but much stronger….

Cacao may be available from Mexican House of Spice 2022 Douglas street. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Mexican-House-of-Spice/183858648319332

This is for whenever you feel anxious, depressed, stressed or any of those other states you may want to exit from.

Inhale slowly to a count of 4. Hold for 4. Exhale for 4. Hold for 4. Even a few rounds can be helpful. Do ten times is kind of ideal.

Your body will respond and slow down the entire system: body, mind, emotions, spirit. It’s as if the message received on all levels is: “It’s all right. Everything is OK.”

When you want, you can move up to a count of 5, then 6 and so on to a count of 10 and eventually a count of 12. You’ll get there…in time. Give it time. Don’t strain. No need. Your body will adapt as you continue to do this a few minutes every day…or every other day…or whatever schedule you want.

 

As Nicholas Boothman says in Convince them in 90 Seconds or Less: “You’ll take this incredible skill with you to the grave. The only thing is that the better you get at square breathing, and the more you do it, the farther away your grave’s going to be.”

Pathways to Bliss by Joseph Campbell

 

“The thing that turns (us) into a poet or an artist, a person who can give humanity the images to help it live, is that the artist recognizes the imperfections around them with compassion. The principle of compassion is that which converts disillusionment into a participatory companionship…This is the basic love, the charity, that turns a critic into a living human being who has something to give to—as well as to demand of—the world…

 

The world is a constellation of imperfections, and you, perhaps, are the most imperfect of all. By your love for the world you name it accurately and without pity and love what you have just named…this discovery can help you save your marriage.”

 

 

“This is why I am troubled by some of the things I notice in the young people who I have been teaching—the idea of unisex; you know: same hair, same clothes, same activities. You lose tension. I think it is a greater charity to life to maintain the tension than to release it, because vitality comes from tension. The electricity that carries our voices though a telephone wire is both positive and negative; if you didn’t have that opposition, there would be no echo.

 

The important thing, however, is not for the masculine to be the dominant or the feminine to be dominant; what is to be dominant is the conjunctio oppositorum, the conjunction of the two.

 

In a marriage, for example, what is the precious thing? Is it the marriage, or is it Tom, or is it Jane? If Tom thinks it’s Tom and Jane thinks it’s Jane, you don’t have a marriage. But if the two of them, though all their agony of opposition, can maintain the idea that the precious thing is the marriage itself, the precious thing is what lies beyond the pair of opposites, then you’ve got a good position to start from…

 

The Zen master Dogen…said that duality is recognized, but that does not obstruct the realization of the unity. That enriches your humanity…

 

…the fanatic is a person who has lost that balance and thinks he’s right. R-I-G-H-T. And that’s a fierce kind of monster to have to face.”

Those who want to make it so are missing something.

 

When we have a partner, it is not about sharing the chores equally.

 

It is about giving.

 

When both understand this, life becomes joy and even bliss.

 

 

 

There I was in my first apartment after leaving home.

 

Every morning I would wake up to a sink full of dirty dishes.

 

It took a little while to realize I may be doing dishes for some time. (It was true. I still wash dishes.)

 

So, I made a decision. Why not just choose to enjoy doing dishes. So I did.

 

I took me years to realize I could choose joy in other areas of life. (In fact, I wrote a book about it: The Zen of Joy. How to Rewire Your Brain for Happiness and Success. http://zenofjoy.com/ )

 

 

 

Back to our “social justice” issue.

 

In a partnership, if we try to share our workload 50/50 we are doomed to failure.

 

When both partners give it 100%, the relationship becomes magic.

 

Joy, love, happiness and bliss abounds.

 

Partly, it has to do with realizing that the act of giving is joy in and of itself.

 

When we give from the heart we receive more than the recipient.

 

Part of that is realizing that any so called chore can be made into joy.

 

It is just a choice.

 

What chore can you reframe and make into joy today?

 

 

 

To Your Joy, Energy and Health,

Bliss is the “carrier” for our life energy.

 

Here is what Deepak Chopra says in QUANTUM HEALING:

 

“…it can alter the heart rate, blood pressure, hormone secretions, or anything else for that matter. This is what allows bliss to be useful medically…What is happening is that the body is receiving a signal from its own blueprint, not a material blueprint but the one that exists in consciousness.

Because the blueprint it invisible, it has to find a way to cross into material existence. To do that, nature employs bliss—it is a vibration that bridges mind and matter, allowing each bit of the body to be paired with a bit of intelligence…the mind-body connection (is) like a radio broadcast: mind is sending out impulses of intelligence, DNA receives them, and bliss is the carrier signal. On paper, these three elements have to be separated, but in reality they are completely fused. The message, the messenger, and the receiver are one. Of  course, we have looked at the mind-body connection dozens of times before, but we didn’t have the ‘glue’ that keeps mind and body from flying in separate directions—bliss.”

 

 

So…how to open up to bliss?

 

Deepak Chopra says meditation. He also mentions “primordial sound” as a healing modality.

 

I use Laughter Yoga, yoga type “exercises,” meditation, music, cold showers and breathing exercises.

 

What is clear to me now is that whatever else is going on around me, it is critical to find a way to access bliss moment by moment.

 

Though I did not know it at the time, it is one of the reasons I wrote The Zen of Joy. Some of the protocols in the book are available on my site so you can sample it: http://zenofjoy.com/ and go to The 7 Step Coaching link on the right of the page.

There I was a toddler in grade one. A small town school in Finland. We did not have indoor plumbing. But, we did get lunch every day.

One time we are having lunch in the classroom. It is just soup and bread. The teacher had to leave the room. She left two girls in charge of writing down anyone’s name who was misbehaving.

I was a shy young thing and just ate my soup. There was the class clown who went up to the girls and teased them. When one of them wrote his name down, he promptly erased it.

He did cause me to chortle into my soup. That was enough. My name went up on the blackboard. The class clown’s name did not stay there.

I had to stay after school for detention. The class clown got away with it.

How unfair!

This shadow lives with me today. When something unfair happens, that shadow shows up. I feel horrible. I am good at hiding it, sometimes even from myself. It is there just the same.

I can’t make the world be fair. So, all that is left is to release my reaction to the world being unfair.

This is my work. Releasing that minor trauma from my system. Until and unless I do that, those feeling stalk me.

I use Laughter Yoga, Yoga, deep breathing, cold exposure and meditation.

What is YOUR shadow? What are you doing to release it?

 

To Your Joy, Energy and Health,

 

Matti

HEALTH

 

You, Supercharged:

 

Supercharged, the Movie. Looking forward to this one.

Imagine, a mind as quick as lightning, a body charged with energy. No, it’s not a fictional super hero.

It’s you. SuperCharged.

If you are like us and don’t accept that old adage, “We’re only human”, then read on.

The film explains the science and shows how the extraordinarily diverse biohackers in the cast went from Sickly Sludge to Super Charged. Yes, we’re only human, but that doesn’t mean we can’t feel superhuman.

This is a movie that focuses on some of the exciting research on various aspects of science relating to energy in biological systems. The aim of the movie is to educate and entertain and ultimately challenge the current view of biology in such a way as to make people more aware of the limitations in mainstream thinking therefore giving credibility to a range of novel ways of helping people with their health.

The film covers ground-breaking science on related topics such as bio-hacking, grounding, water structure; thermogenesis, bio-magnetics and how this fits into a Quantum biology model to illustrate how these exciting areas of research are opening up new possibilities in the fields of health and human performance.

A main focus of the film looks at how this new science changes our view of human physiology and how all of life is one big interconnected energy transferring machine, the implications of which will change the way we view health, aging, peak performance and endurance.

The main thread of the film is: How do we get energy?

Chemical found in red wine and chocolate helps restore defences against Alzheimer’s

FINAL WORD:

From my friend Will Smith: Gardening as a political solution.

“100 years ago, everyone did this. In the 1950’s, mail order catalogues in Canada and the US (e.g. Sears) showed hundreds of different edibles which could be grown and raised even in an urban setting.

 

One of my friends posted this today – they buy little produce at the store.

 

This informs us that the requisites for life on this planet can be fulfilled without too much effort by individuals who look at the system and don’t like the way it is functioning. If you were watching the elections, you may now understand that “citizens'” voices have been silenced by people who think they know better than we do how we should live.

 

None of us are citizens in a free state now – we are essentially chattel of the banking system, only useful as long as we produce for our “Democracy,” which destroys us, one at a time.

 

At this point, fighting these bossy people is useless simply because they shoot you or incarcerate you if you won’t do what they tell you – they demand utter fealty, even to die for their cause of creating a perfect society, their way.

 

In the end, Leibniz and Candide were right – in this best of all possible worlds, the best thing we can do is to grow a garden. It’s time to stop voting with our brains and start voting by putting our shovels into the soil and getting in touch with Mom.”

Keto Clarity. Your Definitive Guide to the Benefits of a Low-Carb, High Fat Diet.

Special Report on the book

 

“Few things are as well established in nutrition science as the immense health benefits of low-carb and ketogenic diets.” Kris Gunnars (article below)

 

Definition of Ketosis

 

WebMD.com tells us this: “Ketones are substances that are made when the body breaks down fat for energy. Normally, your body gets the energy it needs from carbohydrate in your diet. But stored fat is broken down and ketones are made if your diet does not contain enough carbohydrate to supply the body with sugar (glucose) for energy or if your body can’t use blood sugar (glucose) properly.”

 

 

Keto Diet Works for Epilepsy

 

In a separate post, Web MD says the diet works for epilepsy in children: “…the ketogenic diet is real and legitimate. (my bolding) It works very well in many people. The catch is that it’s extremely demanding and difficult to follow.”

 

 

Benefits of burning fat for fuel

 

Well, one benefit is we are burning fat! For many, this is enough. Diets for weight control are a multi billion-dollar industry. Could a low-carb, high fat diet be the answer?

 

 

10 Proven Health Benefits of Low-Carb and Ketogenic Diets

 

Excerpts from an article by Kris Gunnars, BSc. See the full article here: https://authoritynutrition.com/10-benefits-of-low-carb-ketogenic-diets/

 

“1. Low-Carb Diets Kill Your Appetite (in a Good Way)

 

2. Low-Carb Diets Lead to More Weight Loss

 

3. A Greater Proportion of The Fat Lost Comes From The Abdominal Cavity

 

4. Triglycerides Tend to go Way Down

 

5. Increased Levels of HDL (the “good”) Cholesterol

 

6. Reduced Blood Sugar and Insulin Levels, With a Major Improvement in Type 2 Diabetes

 

7. Blood Pressure Tends to go Down

 

8. Low-Carb Diets Are The Most Effective Treatment Known Against Metabolic Syndrome

 

9. Low-Carb Diets Improve The Pattern of LDL Cholesterol

 

10. Low-Carb Diets Are Therapeutic For Several Brain Disorders

 

It is often claimed that glucose is necessary for the brain… and it’s true.

 

Some part of the brain can only burn glucose. That’s why the liver produces glucose out of protein if we don’t eat any carbs. (my bolding)

 

But a large part of the brain can also burn ketones, which are formed during starvation or when carbohydrate intake is very low.

 

This is the mechanism behind the ketogenic diet, which has been used for decades to treat epilepsy in children who don’t respond to drug treatment.

 

In many cases, this diet can cure children of epilepsy. In one study, over half of children on a ketogenic diet had a greater than 50% reduction in seizures. 16% of the children became seizure free.

 

Very low-carb/ketogenic diets are now being studied for other brain disorders as well, including Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease

 

Take Home Message

 

Few things are as well established in nutrition science as the immense health benefits of low-carb and ketogenic diets.”

 

From https://authoritynutrition.com/10-benefits-of-low-carb-ketogenic-diets/

 

More benefits:

 

Effortless appetite control

 

Endless energy

 

Mental clarity

 

Increased sex drive

 

Restful, sounder sleep

 

Feelings of happiness

 

Improved immune system

 

Improved memory

 

Decreased anxiety

 

 

Documented Proof. Documentary from Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC)

 

The entire village of Alert Bay at the north end of Vancouver Island, Canada agreed to go back to their traditional native diet for one year. As it happened, that diet is high fat and low in carbs.

 

Not only did the participants lose weight, they had overall better health. Some lost their diabetes symptoms.

 

Here is the full documentary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMsh_EWFx4A

 

“The ketogenic diet was likely the diet of hunter-gatherers for most of our existence on Earth, except possibly in tropical areas where fruit was available much of the year. In has been known since the early 1900s that nutritional ketosis occurred in many of the Inuit people living in the Arctic, in whom chronic disease was a rarity. Therefore, it is safe to presume that ketones have been part of a healthy human metabolism for millennia.”                                                                                                      -Dr. Keith Runyan

 

 

How to do it:

 

Limit carbs to 20 grams or less. Each of us is individual. Testing is essential.

 

Keep protein intake down to 1 gram per 1 kilogram of body weight.

 

Increase fat consumption (the good kind, of course) to 50-80%!

 

 

Devil’s in the details:

 

Start at 20 grams of carbs per day and adjust from there

 

Test your triglyceride levels. The optimal goal is below 70. Doctors think 135 is within normal levels…just so you know.

 

“When carb cravings hit, your body is really screaming for fat.”

 

If your glucometer shows you are not in ketosis yet, decrease carbs more and/or decrease protein intake.

 

 

“Fat is the key to being full and satisfied…Fat is your friend.”

 

Note that the ketogenic diet may not be appropriate for type 1 diabetics.

 

We don’t have to count calories. (Tim Ferris blew apart the theory of “calories in/calories out” in his book The Four Hour Body.) The keto diet regulates appetite.

 

 

Testing is Critical

 

“When someone tells me that they have tried the ketogenic diet and ‘it didn’t work,’ they usually haven’t attempted to measure their ketones and aren’t really in ketosis. It’s important to follow this diet for at least four to six weeks to evaluate it fairly.”                                                                                          –Dr. Dominic D’Agostino

 

 

Diet, not Medications

 

“Medications can ‘manage’ chronic illnesses like diabetes and obesity, but they cannot prevent or reverse them. But following a ketogenic diet is a potent way to prevent or reverse these common chronic diseases. As a clinician, I like having safe approaches that work with my patients. If you start by focusing on your diet, then the rest will be merely window dressing.”  -Dr. Bill Wilson

 

 

Manage Stress and Get Your Sleep

 

“Chronic lack of sleep, leading to circadian rhythm imbalances and/or chronic levels of significant stress, can drive up cortisol levels in a way that can make getting into a state of ketosis essentially impossible.”  -Nora Getgaudas

 

 

Old Habits Die Hard

 

“I think the obvious temptations that are around us are the biggest problem with maintaining adequate ketosis. One slip with too much carbohydrate will interfere with ketosis, and it can take several days to get back into it. Old habits die hard.”

-Dr. Mary Newport

 

 

Best Cancer Prevention?

 

“A ketogenic approach is the single most effective dietary treatment for any and all cancers and other immune related illnesses. By robbing cancer of its needed fuel source (sugar) and relying on ketones and relying on ketones and free fatty acids instead (which cancer cannot make use of), you can create an internal and epigenetic environment conducive to keeping cancers under control or even preventive them from being able to get a foothold in the first place.”                           -Nora Getgaudas

 

 

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Reversed

 

Dr, Terry Wahls reversed her advanced MS by going into a mild state of nutritional ketosis, allowing her body and brain to function well on fat and ketones.

 

“In ketosis, I have more mental clarity and energy throughout the day.” –Dr Terry Wahls

 

 

Slow the Aging Process

“I believe that what we are really doing with the ketogenic diet is slowing the rate of aging and, especially, increasing the rate of repair. Therefore all the symptoms of aging, which we are calling the disease of aging, can be very effectively treated if not totally reversed by this diet, and I believe it is currently the only way to do so.” (Bolding mine)

–Dr. Ron Rosedale

 

 

Ketosis and Ketoacidosis are Two Different Things.

 

Careful if you plan to ask your doctor about the ketogenic diet: Your doctor may think that ketosis is the same as ketoacidosis. Not so:

 

“Ketoacidosis cannot possibly happen in anyone who still makes even a little bit of insulin. And, even if you are Type 1 diabetic who makes no insulin, ketoacidosis does not happen eating a low-carb diet–only a high-carb diet.” — Jimmy Moore

 

 

Sugar and Processed Foods are the Culprits

 

“People are now living longer but are sicker, destined to experience decades of poor health before they finally kick the bucket. And it’s all because they have lost their connection to ketone bodies. Virtually every chronic disease that physicians deal with every day is caused by eating a diet high in simple sugars and processed food.” –Dr. Bill Wilson

 

The Ball is Now in Your Court

 

You mission, should you decide to accept, is to get on the path to optimal health.

 

 

Last Word

 

“Nutritional ketosis may not be required for general health, but it may very well be a conduit for optimal health.”  – Dr. Bill Lagakos

“I believe that what we are really doing with the ketogenic diet is slowing the rate of aging and, especially, increasing the rate of repair. Therefore all the symptoms of aging, which we call the diseases of aging, can be very effectively treated if not totally reversed by this diet, and I believe it is currently the only way to do so.” –Dr. Ron Rosedale

“Nicholas McCarthy (@NMcCarthyPiano) was born in 1989 without his right hand and only started to play the piano at the age of 14.

 

He was told he would never succeed as a concert pianist.

 

Fortunately, the doubters were wrong. His graduation from the prestigious Royal College of Music in London in 2012 appeared in press around the world, as he became the only one-handed pianist to graduate from the Royal College of Music in its 130-year history.

 

Nicholas has now performed extensively throughout the world, including the U.K., U.S., South Africa, South Korea, Japan, Malta, and Kazakhstan. He has also played alongside Coldplay and given a rendition of the Paralympic Anthem in front of an audience of 86,000 people and half a billion worldwide viewers.

 

His first album, entitled Solo (Warner Music) features 17 stunning pieces of left-hand repertoire spanning three centuries and has been released around the world to great acclaim.

Trauma is Affecting Our Health and Happiness

 

We are all Traumatized

 

Trauma can Wreck our Health

 

How do we get over it?

 

The Iceman Solution

 

Yogic Type Breathing May Resolve Some Trauma

 

Look at the research from David Berceli, author of The Revolutionary Trauma Release Process:

 

“Consider the fact that life begins traumatically. We come into the world through the painful process of birth—an experience where we are squeezed out of shape, pushed, and even sometimes pulled with hard, metallic instruments. It’s not a pleasant welcoming at all.

                Bursting into the light for the first time in our existence, our entry into the world is a shock to the human organism. A room filled with cold air, bright lights is a drastic change from the dark, soothing warmth we have become accustomed to in the womb. Making our debut in such a hostile atmosphere, it’s no wonder we begin life by bellowing our lungs out…

 

we are guaranteed to get bumps on the head, cuts, grazes…

 

our culture presents us with considerable psycho-emotional trauma…

 

When we are very young, trauma often accompanies even the most enjoyable of experiences…there’s always someone who wants the toy we are playing with…fun turns to tears, tantrums and trauma…we are threatened, yelled at, and perhaps even physically assaulted with a spanking…

 

When we begin school, we are likely to encounter bullying…Repeated bullying can be extremely traumatizing for a child…

 

As adults, we face new stresses and different sources of anxiety…a boss makes life difficult. A coworker betrays us. Or…we are let go…

 

Juggling career and family…can be especially anxiety-provoking…

 

(one report shows) that 40% of workers find their jobs to be stressful, and in many cases, extremely stressful.”

 

 

Trauma Can Wreck Your Health

 

As David Berceli outlines in his book, unresolved trauma can be at the root of a lot of chronic pain for which a cause has not been pinpointed.

 

When we are in a situation of life or death, or even a perceived situation of life or death, our system pumps up our fight or flight hormones. This is a survival mechanism. We need the adrenalin to get out of danger and save our lives.

 

The problem is if those fight or flight hormones are not turned off, we can be thrown off balance internally.

 

This is what many refer to as “being stressed out.”

 

Stress is recognized as being a major factor in illness. We are not meant to be in a continual state of stress. The stress hormone production turns off other systems in our bodies.

 

For example, digesting food is not on the radar when being chased by a saber toothed tiger. All our resources are focused on survival. The food digestion enzymes are not being produced while running. Nor are a host of other functions that deal with keeping us healthy.

 

If we don’t turn off the stress or fight or flight hormone production, our bodies can pay a high price.

 

These include “…anxiety disorder, depression, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, gastrointestinal troubles, some cancers, and premature aging.. Stress also seems to increase the frequency and severity or migraine headaches, episodes of asthma, and fluctuation of blood sugar in diabetics.

 

Additionally, there is evidence that people experiencing significant psychological stress are more prone to develop colds and other infections that those who are less stressed. This is because stress reduces the efficiency of our immune system, which would normally fight off infection.”

 

“Gut and chest-related symptoms include irritable bowel syndrome, cramps and diarrhea, and gastro-esophageal reflux.

 

There is some evidence to suggest that fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome may also be connected with the freeze response…Multiple chemical sensitivity…Asthma…a stutter…premenstrual syndrome, and postpartum psychosis ca be exacerbated by trauma. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and sleep apnea can also be related to trauma.”

 

In fact, any condition can have trauma as a contributing factor.

 

 

The Iceman Solution

 

Meanwhile, the Iceman, Wim Hof, is helping many with their trauma. Here is one post in his Facebook group:

 

“Duncan ten Kate · Veendam, Netherlands

 

I am diagnosed with Autism and in november it was too unbearable for me.

 

I knew I had to do something so I started with the Wim Hof inspiration. Using the cold to get stronger and later I was learning the Wim Hof breathing excercise.

 

I can do more things now, but sometimes I can do nothing. What is wrong with me? I made a big discovery about myself.

 

It turns out I have a bunch of trauma’s also called Post-Traumatic-Stress-Disorder.

It turns out all of my Autism symptoms are actually the behaviour of trauma’s.

 

I met Wim Hof in November with the Ice challenge event.

I talked to him and he said:

This guy is cured from his Autism!

I knew that it was not meant seriously but more like a motivation.

 

Last days I felt a pain in my chest. What is wrong with me? Why I feel that broken heart of 8 years ago again?

 

When I was a child. I felt alone. I had no friends. I didn’t understand people. At home there where fights and we where poor. We had almost no money.

 

At the age of 15 I felt in Love. But she didn’t liked me. She rejected me. I felt terrible and because I had no friends to talk too and my parents had other problems it was too difficult to handle the emotions. The broken heart evolved in a PTSD!

 

My autism behaviour was born. For more than 8 years I feel the same broken heart. Turns out that trauma’s actually behave with Adrenaline. When they see Danger you get a stress reaction, Fight, Flight or Freeze.

 

When I see actractive girls I get insecure. I get the same stress reaction. Because the Adrenaline my heart and stumache get’s not enough blood. That maked me tired and I can do nothing and I feel butterflies in my stumach.

 

I was quiting school and never started to work. People always finded me lazy and bullying me. In simple words I had no energy because the trauma’s.

 

Now with the Wim Hof breathing method I am learning to control my blood circulations and the adrenaline to handle broken heart syndrome and trauma reactions.

 

What he said is true. This is the cure for Autism.

 

Of course children are born with Autism, but that only means they have another working brain!

 

I am not good in social things, but I am very smart and creative.

 

Nobody is born with a stress disorder!

 

Children that are less social they are bullied and left alone.

 

All those childrens get small trauma’s on young age because the world is built for social people or they had other bad things happened in the past.

 

At later age they all have the behaviour of what people see as Autism stress and that are actually trauma’s. It is blocked in there mind. They don’t know the cause, but I discovered mine because I am Stronger now.

 

Thanks Wim Hof this really is changing my Life.”

 

 

How much of our dis-eases, conditions are caused by trauma? If not caused, have trauma as a contributing factor?

 

Have a look at this Vice documentary on Wim Hof, the Iceman. http://www.icemanwimhof.com/vice-documentary

 

 

Personal note:

I was inspired to take his course. As of this writing, I am on week 8 of Wim’s 10 week course.

 

My energy level is improved. I would say at least double the energy.

 

It is a step by step process. His system builds up the immune system over time. I expect and hope to continue to increase energy. I hope to improve my health more and more as time goes on.

It can make all the difference

 

I was packing up the night before my flight to London, England last month. Couldn’t find my passport anywhere. I knew it was around as I remembered slipping into one of these new RFID protected passport cases. (Passports and credit cards with microchips need to be protected as criminals can buy cheap machines for scanning all the info off them)

 

As the evening wore on, I was getting more and more agitated. Anything else but the passport and I could still fly. But they won’t let you on the plane without the government stamp of approval that the passport conveys.

 

I had gone through my suitcase a few times but to no avail. Eventually I went to sleep trusting and hoping it would show up in the morning.

 

On the morrow and in desperation, I pulled everything apart in the suitcase and voila, there it was…huge sigh of relief.

 

Why had I not seen it earlier?

 

Because I was afraid to mess up my suitcase! You see, I learned this trick from Arthur Frommer’s book “Europe on Five Dollars a Day.” (yes, a long time ago). By tightly rolling up shirts, one can arrive and have them not be wrinkled. I had been afraid to unroll them. I didn’t want to have to roll them up again.

 

It was only when I was willing to make a mess that I discovered my treasure…my passport.

 

It occurs to me that this may be a wonderful analogy for life.

 

What treasure am I not finding because I am afraid to mess up my neatly ordered life?

 

Hmm…thought to keep in mind.

This is the protocol I used to decide on a career. It works like a charm and you won’t need any expensive courses or seminars. This takes care of it all. Ready?

1) Brainstorm….that means no allow no restriction to enter while you do this. Write out everything, but EVERYTHING you like and/or love to do. Do not try to connect it to making money or to anything else. Just write down EVERYTHING you like to do…in any order…just write and don’t stop, keep going until you have written down absolutely everything you like or love to do. Don’t take the pen off the page or your fingers off the keyboard. Just keep writing until it is ALL down.

 

2) Now (and only now) prioritize them, giving them numbers from 1 to 20 or whatever.

 

3) Take #1 and brainstorm what you could do to make money from the thing love most to do. List at least 20! Again, this is brainstorming. The definition of brainstorming is that there are no wrong ideas. If it sound silly or impractical or both, it doesn’t matter. Just keep writing and put down everything that comes to mind. Do not allow your inner censor into the game at this point. There will be time for that later. One crazy and nuts idea might lead to another one and another one and it may lead to light bulb idea or a connection of ideas put together that may be JUST the ticket.

 

4) Take #2 and do the same, and

 

5) Do the same for #3.

 

You now have 60 things you can do to make money from stuff you love to do. Brainstorming means TURNING OFF the inner voice that interjects things like…”Oh but you can’t do THAT” BE TOTALLY FREE whilst listing each list of 20.

 

When I did this decades ago, I couldn’t find anything I really wanted to do from my list of 20 for the thing I like most to do (sex), so I went to #2 (making money) and that, boys and girls, is the true story of how I had a 15 year career as a financial planner…and quite a ride is was too. 🙂

 

Let me know how it goes. 🙂

 

Love, Laughter and Smiles.

Update of a Mastery Newsletter Special Report from 1998.

 

THERE IS AN INTERNATIONAL BANKING CARTEL THAT HAS, OVER CENTURIES, SEIZED CONTROL OF THE CREATION OF MONEY AND ARE USING THIS POWER TO ENSLAVE US.

 

Documentation: “THE CREATURE FROM JEKYLL ISLAND” book by Edward Griffin, available on the net: “realityzone.com”.

 

This creation of money is totally out of thin air!!! The result: huge government, corporate and personal debt, created out of thin air!! Yes, the entire federal and provincial debts have been created out of thin air.

 

The implications of this situation are that, according to some researchers:

 

THE INCOME TAX YOU PAY TO THE GOVERNMENT, FOR THE MOST PART, DOES NOT GO TO SOCIAL PROGRAMS, BUT IS SIPHONED OFF BY THE INTERNATIONAL BANKING CARTEL TO ACCUMULATE AND CENTRALIZE MORE POWER IN ITS HANDS.

 

Some researchers in this field say that, in Canada, the interest on our national debt is not 34% as officially published, but closer to 90%!!!! If true, this means that 90% of your tax dollars go to empower the international banking cartel to reach their STATED goal.

 

THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF THE INTERNATIONAL BANKING CARTEL IS TO SEIZE CONTROL OF THE PLANET AND ITS INHABITANTS, WITH ONE WORLD CURRENCY AND ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT UNDER ITS SOLE AND TOTAL CONTROL AND A CASHLESS SOCIETY!

 

Some researchers say they intend to do this by implanting a microchip in each person’s wrist that carries, not only your ID number, but also your money. In other words, the chip replaces not only your social insurance card, but also your debit card. No more need for bank accounts. Unfortunately, this would also mean they would be able to a) track you wherever you are by satellite, b) wipe out your money if you displeased them and c) send impulses to the chip to cause you to have the thoughts and feelings they want you to have.

 

Fanciful? The technology for this is already here, has been for awhile. They already have implanted cats and dogs (if Fido gets lost, why when we find him, we just swipe him by a scanner and we know who the owner is!!) And they have already implanted chips in some human babies, to the delight of their mothers!!

 

Taking money from us through taxation and the hidden taxation of inflation is only one way that we have our life blood sucked from us. If we are to be truly free, we must discover if we are being enslaved in other ways, if forms of energy other than money are being siphoned off from us and, if so, what can we do about it?

 

THE MEDICAL SYSTEM IS A SYSTEM, NOT OF HEALTH, BUT ONE OF ILLNESS, ON PURPOSE!!  THE INTERNATIONAL BANKING CARTEL RUNS THE DRUG COMPANIES, WHO USE DOCTORS AS THEIR UNCONSCIOUS SALES AGENTS TO CONSCIOUSLY SUCK ENERGY FROM US. ENERGY IN THE FORM OF MONEY FOR DRUGS, FOR UNNECESSARY SURGICAL PROCEDURES, FOR UNNECESSARY RESEARCH AND ENERGY IN THE FORM OF VITAL ESSENCE THROUGH KEEPING US MISINFORMED ON THE TRUE NATURE OF HEALTH!!

 

Documentation: “MEDICAL MAFIA” by Dr. GuyLaine Lanctot. Lanctot was a doctor in Canada, the US and France for 30 years. Her research is nothing short of astounding. It led her to the international banking cartel through the medical system. As a doctor, she had all of the misinformation, propaganda and yes, brainwashing that the system could throw at her. She independently researched and found:

 

THREE GREAT LIES OF THE MEDICAL SYSTEM:

 

1) VACCINATIONS ARE GOOD FOR YOU.  A LIE.

 

Lanctot’s research shows that vaccinations are a conscious and cynical initiative by the international banking cartel for control of people. An unhealthy populace is easier to control than a vital and energetic peoples. Vaccinations are also a population control initiative by the cartel.

 

2) AIDS IS CONTAGIOUS. A LIE.

 

Joseph Goebbels, the Nazi Propaganda Minister, used a technique called the Big Lie. Tell the people a big enough lie often enough and they will believe it. Nowhere is this more evident than with the AIDS story.  AIDS is actually a virus that was concocted by the American military as part of germ warfare research. It was then injected into the gay population in six American cities, into Haiti and, as a World Health Organization supposed Hepatitis vaccination program, into a large part of the population of Africa.

HIV actually has nothing to do with AIDS. There are many cases of HIV positive people living in perfect health for well over a decade and there are many cases of AIDS patients who do not have HIV!!!!

 

3) CANCER IS A MYSTERY. A LIE.

 

Cures for cancer exist. Those who know about it and try to help others, whether they are doctors or lay people, are hounded by the system, defamed in the media, ruined, jailed and sometimes killed. In Her book, Lanctot tells of a group of researchers who discovered a cure for cancer in 1934. The then President of the American Medical Association demanded a cut. He was refused. He then quashed the cure and one of the researchers was killed in a car accident.

 

The route to freedom is:

 

1) Research with an inquiring mind. Believe nothing anyone tells you (including me!!) until you check it out with your gut instincts.

 

There is NO substitute for your own personal knowledge. Read “CREATURE FROM JEKYLL ISLAND” as a starting point. Read MEDICAL MAFIA. There are many other sources.

 

2) Implement. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a first step. BEGIN.

 

KEEP YOUR EYES FIRMLY FIXED ON THE GOAL: FREEDOM AND YOU WILL REACH IT.

 

One of the ways the cartel keeps us enslaved is to keep us so busy we have no time to look around and see how things really are. I KNOW you are busy. That is the way it was planned. But, no one else can create freedom for you, but you!  If you truly desire freedom, ONLY YOU CAN MAKE IT HAPPEN.

 

THE RESOURCES YOU HAVE ARE INFINITE. YOU KNOW IT. YOU MAY JUST HAVE FORGOTTEN.

 

Have a great life. Always remember Oscar Wilde: “Living well is the best revenge.”

 

 

Love, Laughter and Smiles.

 

 

Matti

HEALTH

 

The great cholesterol scam finally begins to unravel. A study from researchers at the Universities of North Carolina and Illinois confirms that avoiding saturated fats in the diet to reduce cholesterol levels provides zero health benefit. There is no connection at all between polyunsaturated fat consumption and risk of heart disease. Statin drugs to depress cholesterol levels may be the next scam to be exposed. http://www.naturalnews.com/053786_cholesterol_statins_death_risk.html

FINAL WORD:

 

Canada’s Food Guide should seek inspiration from Brazil: researcher

 

“The Brazilian guide, released in 2014, says the cornerstone of people’s diets should be fresh, unprocessed food…

 

It moves beyond a do and don’t list and calls for people to cook their own meals from scratch and eat with friends and family.”

 

 

This  last bit may be a missing link: eat with friends and family. See the work of Lissa Rankin for more info. She has a TED talk.

Update and Caution on The Sugar Fix Report.

This report has some important updates to pay attention to. Specifically, the role of glucose, which the author of The Sugar Fix says is benign. Fructose is the culprit in his study of sugar.

My naturopath, Dr. Kevin Jackson, corrected me when I mentioned it. He pointed to studies he has access to showing glucose to be a culprit as well.

Further study of the Ketogenic Diet points out that the burning of ketones by the body instead of glucose has produced vibrant health for many.

With that in mind, here is the Special Report on The Sugar Fix.

Release of trauma

 

This is what the Iceman course is doing for me. Wim Hof’s 10 week course: week 4 day 2.

 

We all have trauma. See David Berceli’s THE REVOLUTIONARY TRAUMA RELEASE PROCESS.

 

Three sets of muscles contract during trauma and stay contracted: the psoas, the iliacus and the diaphragm. Other muscles can get and stay contracted too.

 

This tension creates lack of nerve flow, blood flow and vital energy flow or “chi.” This tension also cuts off sensation. In other words, the pain contained in that tense muscle is so intense that the body, as a defence mechanism, cuts off the sensation of pain to the brain. This is so we don’t have to feel the pain on a moment by moment basis.

 

Note that the pain is still there.

 

Example: decades ago, I slipped on an icy concrete step in the middle of winter and landed right on my tailbone. This caused a long term tightening of the muscles surrounding the tailbone as well as the three muscle group: psoas, iliacus and diaphragm.

 

The yoga type exercises we are doing in week 4 are making me aware of that pain, breathing into it and helping to release it.

 

The Wim Hof Method is not the only system that does this. Berceli has a system. Other writers do as well. Yoga and tai chi also release these from the inside out.

 

It’s just that Wim’s method of breathing exercises, not to mention the cold showers, is a proven formula now for really digging in deep and releasing that trauma.

 

Further, Wim trains folks to get control of their nervous system. So it is more than trauma release. It is trauma release aligned with mental training. Gaining control of the mind and using it to open up hidden energy blocks in the body.

 

The resulting mental toughness can bring about a sense of inner calm as well as allowing energy to flow to areas of the body that have been starved of nutrients, nerve flow and blood flow.

 

Wim has made it a step by step process, slowly increasing the challenge level.

 

This is such an exciting program. Thank you Wim.

Main Points:

 

We all have some programming/conditioning

 

How can we undo the conditioning and be free?

 

Wim Hof, the Iceman, has done it by training his body AND mind and gained control of his autonomic nervous system

 

He has trained others to do it. Researchers have confirmed this is a trainable skill

 

This means we may be able to overcome the modern dis-eases: cancer, diabetes, heart disease and others

 

 

 

Question: How does a person know if they are brainwashed?

 

Answer: BY DEFINITION, one cannot know. That is included in the definition of the word.

 

Therefore, the only safe assumption is that I am brainwashed.

 

Accepting this, what can I do to do undo the programming/conditioning I have been subjected to?

 

(Notice how it can be easier to accept if we use gentler words like “programming” and “conditioning?”)

 

I have been struggling/working with this challenge for years now.

 

Interim solutions have included tai chi, yoga, meditation, NLP or Neuro Linguistic Programming, EFT or Emotional Freedom Technique, Donna Eden’s energy work, various breathing techniques, Laughter Yoga, rebirthing and a host of other techniques, many of which I wrote about in my book The Zen of Joy, How to Rewire Your Brain for Happiness and Success. http://zenofjoy.com/

 

Wim Hof’s Iceman course is the latest and greatest.

 

Wim has shown it is possible to gain control of our autonomic nervous system. He has earned himself a chapter in the latest biology texts.

 

Not only can he withstand cold, hiking Everest in shorts and boots only and running a marathon in minus 20 degrees in shorts.

 

He also sat in a tub of ice for an hour and a half and his skin temperature remained the same.

 

Researchers in Holland, his home country, concluded he must be a one-off. So he trained 12 others and they were tested and were able to pull off the same control of their autonomic nervous systems.

 

Scientifically proven now that this is a trainable skill.

 

Wim says “We are going to win the greatest war ever…the war of the bacteria, viruses…”

 

What this means is we may have the potential to heal ourselves of the maladies and conditions of modern society: cancer, heart disease, diabetes and…fill in the blank with your most feared condition.

 

All the while having fun and living life more fully, enjoying it deeply.

 

See if you feel the call to join me on this adventure.

Love, Laughter and Smiles AND Strength and Happiness,

That is what describes the sensation and feeling of week 3 of the Iceman course.

 

Wow. I am blown away. What I have been searching for and moving toward all my life. (but then I feel that about every new discovery 🙂 )

 

http://joyenergyandhealth.com/2016/04/13/vibrant-energy-and-peace-mastery-newsletter-april-13-2016/

 

Main Points:

 

• The Iceman, Wim Hof, has gained control of his autonomic nervous system and his immune system
• He trained 12 others to do the same and they were tested by researchers
• It is a trainable skill
• More energy, more immunity against colds, flus and other conditions
• Wim’s system includes breathing and cold showers
• Cold showers are hard work
• We are meant to work harder as we age
• By contributing more, we gain more energy, health, joy and happiness

 

The Iceman is Wim Hof who has defied conventional thinking and gained control of his autonomic nervous system. The medical texts say that is impossible.

 

Further, he trained 12 volunteers how to do the same.

 

Results from that study show that gaining control of our autonomic nervous system is a trainable skill!!

 

“…studies show that the immune system can be influenced by the consciousness in many ways, which could mean that our thoughts, beliefs and mood can affect the physical state of our body.

 

Knowing that, you can learn to control your thinking and thus your immune system and health.

 

Focus on the bright side of life, visualize yourself being happy and healthy, meditate every day, and soon you will see positive changes not only in your health but in your whole life!”

 

The Science Behind Consciously Controlling Your Immune System: The Mind-Body Connection

 

http://themindunleashed.org/2014/07/science-behind-consciously-controlling-your-immune-system-mind-body-connection.html

 

My experience so far: nothing short of incredible. Best couple of hundred bucks I have spent for many a moon, buying his course.

 

At age 69, I figure there are two pathways: either accept older age and the health challenges that come with it: potential slowing down and all the modern dis-eases: cancer, diabetes, heart disease and who knows what else.

 

Or

 

“Rage, rage against the dying of the light”

 

I choose the latter. Wim Hof’s method seems to me to combine many modalities:

 

Exercise, yoga, stretching, breathing techniques, meditation, energy work, inner smile from tai chi and qigong, trauma release work and even emotional freedom.

 

It has elements of all those and Wim adds working with cold. He says “cold is a noble force.” I am experiencing that with daily cold showers, now up to two minutes at a time.

 

The awakening of vibrant energy is astonishing. What a wonderful addiction to have…being addicted to your own energy. Wowee zowiee. Such fun.

 

Cold showers too much for you?

 

Here is the discovery: We are meant to work harder as we age.

 

We are NOT meant to take it easy. That is the programming that modern society imposes on us. You know: work hard so you can retire and take it easy.

 

What crap!

 

With all the experience, knowledge and yes, perhaps some wisdom that we have acquired throughout our lives, we as elders owe it to ourselves to continue contributing to the wellbeing of others.

 

Why should we be denied one of the great treasures of life, giving and contributing?

 

It is an open secret that when we help others, WE are the ones who benefit more than they do!!!

 

Learning how to give more, contribute more and love more leads us to our own joy, happiness and salvation.

 

So yes, the Iceman course is hard work. But oh is it joyous. Yes yes yes.

 

-Matti
