First Things First. Action Priorities. Mastery Newsletter August 4, 2025
Life is a challenge.
Modern life even more so.
It seems there is no end of “stuff” to deal with.
Let’s more clearly identify the problem(s).
That should clarify what needs to be done and in what order.
Natural healing takes a different approach to disease, dis-ease, chronic conditions.
Instead of waiting until a health challenge surfaces…
The natural healing approach considers that all conditions arise from one or more of the following…
1.Not delivering the nutrition we our systems need in the right amounts. (food, but also energy, love, nurturing…)
2.Buildup of toxins (from man made sources, but also from nature…)
3.Stress. It’s a good thing when we are under actual physical attack. Chronic stress means all other systems are shut down…for example, the digestive system is not needed when we are fighting off a bear, cougar of other predator. So…as long as we have stress, nutrients in our food is not getting delivered to the cells. See #1.
4.Electromagnetic radiation. A modern malady. We are awash in EMF (Electro Magnetic Frequencies).
How bad is it? In the 1950s, Radio station CKWX in Vancouver boosted their signal from 10,000 watts to 50,000 watts. That signal was so powerful folks reported hearing the station from their dental amalgams or just sitting in a bathtub. True Story. I lived through it and read the news reports in the local newspapers.
Now? Not only are all AM stations at the maximum allowable 50,000 watts, but FM stations (which did not exist in the 50s) are at 100,000 watts.
And we now have a vast array of signals…a quick search reveals this: “Common sources include mobile phones, cell phone towers, Wi-Fi routers, smart meters, Bluetooth devices, cordless phones (DECT), television and radio broadcast signals, microwave ovens, and satellite stations.”
Whew.
Easy to get overwhelmed?
First, we need to be mindful that overwhelm is an emotion.
It is not really created by anything outside of ourselves, but by our reaction to events and situations.
This is key. Because this understanding empowers us.
We can reframe all of these challenges.
In other words, we can clarify what actions we can take.
Action is the antidote to overwhelm. Key idea.
That is a good place to start…
If overwhelm in an emotion, how do we release or neutralize it?
How about by addressing the four sources of dis-ease?
Which one first?
It should be obvious that #1 is not the one.
Why?
Because if we have chronic stress, cleaning up the diet just means we are just getting better food that is not being digested.
Underline this: We do not digest food, deliver nutrition to the cells when we are stressed. This is an impossibility.
Are we making progress?
We can now see that addressing the stress is more critical.
In reality and I am sure you have already connected the dots…
We need to focus on all four of the contributing factors to dis-ease.
It’s just that we have to start somewhere.
And releasing stress is a great start.
Because…
When we release stress, we now have access to more of our inner resources…
Joy, energy and love not to mention fun.
