QUESTION OF THE DAY:

What can we DO to help our body cope with the physical, mental, emotional and stresses resulting from pollutants, chemicals, and toxins we deal with everyday?

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Homotoxicology is a non-allopathic paradigm through which to view overall toxic load.  The Homotoxicology model views acute illness as an actual healing response appropriate to your body’s defense against homotoxins.  Quantum EPFX unconscious biofeedback utilizes Homotoxicology without having to consciously interact during session or to take homeopathic remedies.

ARTICLE: As you can see, we’re on a roll about overall or total toxic load.  We know that living in our modern world puts us in daily contact with industrial pollutants, degraded and “treated” foods, and allopathic suppressive drugs, and many other toxic “cocktails”.

But just how bad are they?  How can we view this with a different paradigm?  Is there a “gentle” non-allopathic solution?

It’s interesting to see how different non-allopathic worlds view this issue of total toxic load.  Today, we’ll consider the Homotoxicology model.

Let’s build a bit of a base first so we’re all on the same page.

Homotoxicology is a theoretical and practical model developed by Dr. Hans-Heinrich Reckeweg (1905-1985), who integrated modern scientific principles with Homeopathic principles. The Homotoxicology model views illness or dis-ease as your body’s defense against toxic substances (homotoxins).

According to Homotoxicology, duration and intensity of toxin-loading determine the type and severity of your illness.   I.e., when your body is unable to detoxify, disturbances occur which eventually manifest as illness or dis-ease, which, in turn is viewed as the body’s attempt to restore balance.

So then, in the Homotoxicology model, acute illness represents an actual healing response and is a good thing.  (E.g., fevers under 103 degrees increase enzyme activity.)  This model further shows that suppression (especially allopathically) can lead to chronic degenerative stress.  Therefore, in Homotoxicology, virtually all symptoms of mental, physical, and emotional stress are regarded as signs that your body is attempting to rid itself of homotoxins (substances toxic to humans).

Reckeweg identified and classified reactions against homotoxins and identified 6 phases of disease and various levels of tissue classification to visually show progression of disease.  In building this table, he also considered miasmatic (predispositions) and constitutional tendencies and environmental influences.

Homotoxicology, like homeopathy, understands your healing to be
• From inner to outer
• From above to below
• From most to least vital organ
• In reverse order of symptom appearance

This model also shows that allopathic (or other) suppression often leads to movement in the opposite direction of healing.  (E.g., steroids given to suppress eczema might lead to asthma.)

So Homotoxicology views your body’s response as an appropriate biological resistance to toxic substances (homotoxins).  Disease is your body’s expression of its battle against toxins in an attempt to counteract and expel them.  When your body can’t expel them, it then tries to make up for damage already incurred. 

The Homotoxicology table shows 6 phases of this process:

1. Excretion Phase – Your body’s defensive system is intact.  It excretes homotoxins. (E.g., diarrhea, runny nose, etc)

2. Inflammation Phase – Your body has an inflammatory response because excretion is insufficient to neutralize toxins.  (E.g., fever)

3. Deposition Phase – Your body begins to store toxins because it can’t sufficiently excrete them and/or they continue to flow into your body.  (You often have no symptoms during this phase.)

4. Impregnation Phase – Toxins have invaded cells and become part of your connective tissue and matrix.  (You may experience severe symptoms because of organ cell damage.)

5. Degeneration – Toxins in your cells may destroy large cell groups in organs which may result in organ degeneration.

6. Differentiation – Your cell genes are damaged.  (Malignant diseases are at the end of this phase.)

This model show phases 1-3 as naturally “reversible”; phases 4-6 as more difficult to deal with because of organ damage.

Ok so where the heck does that leave us and what does it all mean?

Maybe this means nothing to you and it doesn’t resonate with you at all.  Then just consider this an “interesting read”.

If this makes sense to you, however, and you’d like to pursue the topic further, there are plenty of experienced practitioners that adhere to the philosophy of Homotoxicology. 

Homeopathic combinations are designed to restore health by eliminating homotoxins.  They are designed to flush toxins out of the matrix of your connective tissues, to improve your individual organ functionality, and to strengthen your immune system.

The Quantum EPFX unconscious biofeedback also utilizes the homotoxicological approach without having to “take” homeopathic remedies.  In addition, it works on an energetic / electrical level without you having responsibility to consciously interact while in session or to “take” remedies after session.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
An article posted by Dr. Cary Rothenberg, D.C. in his January 2008 newsletter posed the question of potential addictions to stress.  Some general symptoms he noted were
• Better performance under stress
• Better performance related to tight deadlines
• Habitual procrastination
Dr. Rothenberg’s advice?  Deal with stress before physical symptoms occur by first admitting to stress, second identifying it, and finally dealing with underlying causes.

ARTICLE:
I read Dr. Cary Rothenberg’s January 2008 newsletter regarding his thoughts on potential addictions to stress.  It got me thinking.

Ever find yourself procrastinating till the last final moment? 

You started with plenty of lead time but…

The project is now due tomorrow… 

The task is now “do or die”… 

People are now breathing down your neck for your contribution…

You originally had plenty of time to comfortably and leisurely do a great job.

But not now…

Nope…

Now you’re governed by the minute-hand of that clock… each tick brings you closer to deadline and doom. 

But you LOVE it! 

You THRIVE on the pressure!

You actually work BETTER this way…

Truth be known, you actually CREATE this type situation…

The EXCITEMENT…

You find it somehow easier to concentrate…

Nothing exists except completion of this task…

It’s as if you finally created the perfect situation to give yourself permission to ignore all distractions…

Now you HAVE to concentrate in order to make deadline! 

No choice! 

Is this you?

Not once in a while… that happens to everyone…

But if you find that this is your “normal” operating mode, you may want to explore this topic a bit…

Stress can kill… repeated, constant stress can actually create unhealthy mental, PHYSICAL, and emotional disease. 

That’s proven…

So think about this a moment.

Could you be an adrenalin junkie?

A stress addict?

Even though the “Logical You” realizes that you’re pulling your hair out over impossible deadlines that are self-exacerbated - or worse yet, created by your own choice to procrastinate - the fact remains, that you’re running “crazy” to finish this task on time.

Yeah, I know… it’s pure craziness.

Ever wonder what drives some of that “craziness”? 

You start out TRYING your darnedest to “Begin that project”… “Do it now”… “Schedule schedule schedule”… “Keep lists”… All this well-meaning self-advice boomerangs inside your scull like a private symphony!  … (Or is that “cacophony”???)

All YOU know, is that you’re tired of ALL the clichés, right???!!!

In fact, part of you actually THRIVES on the excitement of that looming deadline… the possibility of NOT making it! 

Researchers such as Dr. Joe Dispenza (Rutgers University) and others have conclusively demonstrated that this outa-control “craziness” may not be ONLY all in your head…

Don’t fret more… that’s GOOD NEWS…

The story goes something like this: when you have an experience, your body produces a chemical associated with that experience… sometimes, your body becomes addicted to that chemical… when this happens you may be driven to re-experience whatever might be associated with that chemical in order for your body to greedily get its fix. 

So you see?  You truly might be addicted to stress in a physical sense!  And feeding that addiction may be driving some of your “craziness”.

Doesn’t that make sense?

Now the EVEN BETTER news.

Because that chemical is a “physical” thing, it has an associated resonant frequency.  If the body can be trained and re-educated to deal with the stress of that chemical in a bioresonance session, you may experience release from the “addiction” to adrenaline (or other stressors related to self-created stressful situations).

Now you can choose to train and re-educate the body to deal with the physical, emotional, psychological, and environmental stresses which may be contributing to or exacerbating your addictions to stress - virtually standing between you and that blissful PEACE you so deserve.

Bioresonance offers gentle, noninvasive, chemical-free, protocols to train and re-educate your body to deal with stressors of addiction – even emotional ones.  

Wouldn’t it be great if bioresonance would help you hang onto your sanity while dealing with projects well within deadline?

What a novel concept, huh?

Don’t you owe it to yourself to handle some of the real stresses that might be exacerbating your behavior patterns? 

Hmmmm…. Kinda like a “root cause” solution…

Interested?

Yeah… you can thank me later!  (For now, don’t you have a deadline to meet?)

After you complete that project, let us know what you REALLY think about this.

Executive Summary:
An article courtesy McGill University and World Science staff (May 6, 2008) entitled “Brain’s molecules may tell of child abuse / Finding could lead to treatments” discusses a cause-and-effect link between Epigenetics and victims of childhood trauma who decided to commit suicide.

Researchers note that chemical responses to traumatic and abusive childhood experiences may affect heritable traits which contribute to poor decision-making and other behaviors. 

While scientists debate this further, an immediate consideration is bioresonance / biofeedback which may re-educate and train the body to deal with mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual responses to these chemicals.

Article:
A friend recently asked my opinion about an article courtesy of McGill University and World Science staff (May 6, 2008) entitled “Brain’s Molecules May Tell Of Child Abuse / Finding Could Lead To Treatments”. 

The McGill article reported that researchers found key differences in brains of folks who experienced early childhood abuse.  It discusses a possible cause-and-effect link between Epigenetics and early childhood abuse which subsequently might contribute to their decisions to commit suicide. 

My friend further requested an opinion from the perspective of bioresonance / biofeedback and its ability to train and re-educate the body regarding physical (including chemical), mental, emotional, and spiritual stressors. 

Let me start by agreeing with the findings of McGill University and the World Science Staff as well as tie-ins from studies in related areas. 

When researchers examined brains, although genes showed no significant differences, chemical differences were noted in epigenetic markers which are influenced by life experiences. 

Simply put, we have an “experience” with its associated “chemical, which affects the epigenetic marker, which in turn may affect decision-making.  Although, DNA is not changed, the trait is heritable. 

Let’s fill in some background.

Modern usage of the word “epigenetic” usually references attempts to explain heritable traits NOT involving changes to underlying DNA structure. 

This is significant because all cells within an organism inherit the same DNA sequence.  Yet scientific studies consistently point to “something else” which contributes to heritable traits; modern scientists now talk of chemicals which “turn on” or “turn off” traits without affecting DNA structure.

The McGill article, discusses, in particular, a possible cause-and-effect relationship between child abuse and suicide.  

Examination of brains of childhood abuse victims who committed suicide focused on pro¬teins crit¬i¬cal for learn¬ing, mem¬o¬ry, and build¬ing new con¬nec¬tions in the brain because researchers reasoned that pro¬tein pro¬duc¬tion can af¬fect decision-mak¬ing and oth¬er behaviors.

Their search found that rRNA, a key piece of the cell’s machinery to make protein, can be governed by Epigenetics. 

Further, knowing that brain molecules, which may have been altered due to childhood abuse or trauma, are contributed to a zygote both by mother as well as father, we quickly realize that we are no longer considering a single generational affect,

Let’s keep in mind that these are “real folks” being discussed, not computer models, and not lab animals.  So, although science proved chemical existence of a cause-and-effect relationship - namely that traumatic experiences can be responsible for heritable traits - at this point of the argument, we’re no closer to being of actual practical assistance to anyone living this nightmare – nor are we any closer to stopping the heritable chain.

With this end in mind, let’s examine another side of the equation for a bit. 

When a person has an experience, the body produces a chemical associated with that experience. (This has been proven by researchers such as Dr. Joe Dispenza (Rutgers) and others.)  In fact, there are times the body may even become addicted to that chemical… when this happens a person may be driven to re-experience whatever might be associated with that chemical in order for the body to greedily get its fix.  In this sense, a person may be truly addicted to negative emotions and decision-making behaviors in a physical sense. 

In simplest terms, we have a negative / abusive childhood experience, a chemical resulting from that experience which may affect decision-making, may be addictive, and in addition, may be heritable to subsequent generations.

We just added another dimension to the issue. 

In fact, Mo¬she Szyf, one of the researchers from McGill Uni¬ver¬s¬ity in Mont¬real, wondered if these chemicals could be identified in blood DNA, perhaps leading to diag¬nos¬tic tests, which, in turn might lead to treat¬ments that might “erase these dif¬fer¬ences” and the re¬sult¬ing stress re¬s¬ponses.

The “stress responses”, Mr. Szyf described might be addressed within the existing field of bioresonance / biofeedback.

Because the chemical, resulting from a particular experience (in this case –early childhood abuse) is an actual physical “thing”, it has an associated resonant frequency.  Bioresonance / biofeedback communicates with the body on an electrical level - that “discussion” being in the frequency realm – in order to train and re-educate the body regarding its choice to react or not react to the chemical stressors noted in this discussion. 

Therefore, at least one practical and immediate course of action already exists. 

In addition, because there are no known deleterious side affects to the client, discussion regarding contraindications becomes moot 
• there are no chemicals involved;
• the session is non-invasive, gentle, and pain-free;
• communication with the body occurs purely on an electrical level which negates necessity to re-traumatize by requesting a re-living / re-telling of the abusive experience. 

In addition, because the modality communicates with the body on a purely electrical level, it also eliminates consideration of secondary trauma which may be associated with cognitive, allopathic, and / or chemical attempts to deal with this issue.

My question to researchers now becomes empirical proof in the following arenas: 
1. If the body might be re-educated and trained to not respond to these chemicals, could the “automatic” response to them be “turned off”? 
2. Further, after the body alters its response, and no longer has use for the chemical, would it “un-glue” and no longer be part of the heritable chain?

Summary
1. Victims of early childhood abuse and trauma might benefit greatly from immediate addition of bioresonance / biofeedback as an adjunct to their existing mental wellness plan. 
2. I strongly urge all mental health practitioners to refer existing early childhood abuse clients to seek bioresonant / biofeedback sessions as an adjunct to their present mental wellness plan.
3. I urge continued empirical research in the area of bioresonance / biofeedback and how it relates to this issue from a heritable perspective.

What’s the most effective thing you do to maintain positive mental health?  How did you discover this?  What stop-gap measures do you use when you feel yourself slipping into a not-so-good emotional space?  What’s your “Plan B” when nothing seems to help?

Dear Friends: 

Did you know that May is Mental Health Awareness Month? 

And for you “foodies”, May 11 is Eat What You Want Day.   

(Yeah…I KNEW you’d like that one… totally depend on me to keep you updated with this kind of earth shattering info!) 

This month, rather than me tell you stuff, I’d like to hear from YOU…  

Tell us about the positive things you do to keep a balanced mental outlook on life… what works for you?  What doesn’t work for you?  What things do you swear by?   

Share the physical, mental, spiritual, emotional tools that you swear by… natural herbs and supplements… things like that… (No drugs, chemicals, illegal, or illicit practices, please….)   

When you feel yourself slipping into a less-than-positive space, what do you do to get yourself out of that?  How effective is it?  What do you do if your “Plan A” doesn’t work? 

This month’s message from me is short, sweet, and directly to the point.  (Ok so I lied about not having a message this month… but it was just a teensy one to get you thinking and sharing your thoughts… can you blame me?!!!) 

Go ahead… take a deep breath… (Oh yeah… remember to let it out…) 

Think pleasant thoughts… (Some of you are grinning…) 

Ready?  Here goes…  

Although at times we may joke about our “senior moments”, Mental Health is a serious issue.   

Your Quantum EPFX Mental Health biofeedback session can be designed to re-educate and train your body to more positively deal with the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual stresses related to your emotional concerns and stressors.

Let me say that again… you may be able to quite literally RE-EDUCATE and TRAIN your body to deal with everyday stresses in a more positive and more healthful way!!! 

And here’s the kicker: It’s non-invasive… No drugs… No pain…No discomfort… Not even any expensive, time-consuming lifestyle changes! 

No kidding!

 Yep!  We’ll get you smiling yet!!! 

Let’s hear from you!    

Continued wishes for a happy and healthy May 2008!

Stressed To The Max?       

Ready To Burst Your Seams??? 

Did you know that April is National Anxiety Month and Stress Awareness Month? 

Did you also know that April 16 is National Stress Awareness Day?   

And for you “egg fans” – April 16 is also National Eggs Benedict Day!!   

(Hey! You never know when that kind of information might come in handy… yeah, I know… sometimes I’m a veritable wealth of information!) 

I know we’re all busy, so I’ll just cut to the chase: 

In this day and age, we’re ALL stressed!  Some more than others… some in different ways than others…but generally speaking, our bodies are ALL dealing with stresses on a 24-7 basis!   

We know that stress can adversely affect so much of our balance – mental, physical, emotional, spiritual…  

In fact, some of us are so anxious and stressed we’re practically bursting at the seams…    

Here at Next Wave, we appreciate how this modern world can affect our stress and anxiety levels… 

Unfortunately, as much as we’d like to, we can’t blink it all away. 

So here at Next Wave we’re doing the next best thing to blinking it away… 

Ok so take a deep breath…  

Relax…  

Just for a second or two…  

Go ahead…  It’s ok.  Here at Next Wave, we TOTALLY understand…  

You’re over-worked, under-paid, out of time, stretched to the max… in fact, you’re often anxious and stressed-out beyond belief. 

You finally hit a point, however, where the discomfort of staying anxious and stressed is worse than the effort to do something about it. 

With that in mind, wouldn’t you like to re-educate your body so it can deal with anxiety and stresses in a more positive way?  

Are you aware of Quantum EPFX Advanced Biofeedback Anxiety and Stress Programs?  This may be a start to a whole new paradigm regarding behavioral strategies to help you toward more balanced health. 

Quantum EPFX technology can help re-educate your body to deal with your physical, emotional, psychological, and environmental stress and anxiety concerns!  

As always, the Advanced Quantum EPFX technology is a gentle, noninvasive, chemical-free, protocol.

With the media hyping this holiday for all its worth, it’s hard to get away from the constant “reminders” of all the “love” that’s supposed to be in the air… 

In fact, if you’re part of a “couple”, and if you believe the whole media hype argument, your Valentine Day decisions are so stupendous that they could possibly jeopardize your very future as a couple… yeah well, that’s their story and they seem to be sticking to it… 

On the OTHER hand, if you DON’T have someone special… you may feel like THAT’S being pushed in your face… 

I mean it’s great if you’re into the hearts… the frills… a whole other reason to give and receive gifts and cards, ya know? It’s tons of fun for some of you, right?  (Yeah, own up… you know who you are!)   

I bet even YOU guys, however, know a couple of folks who roll their eyes and do the daily double to get away from the whole Valentine issue…  

Ok so whichever side of the proverbial fence you’re on regarding this issue… it can be EMOTIONAL… know what I mean???   

Unfortunately, the constant reminders serve to exacerbate sometimes already raw emotions… (Sound familiar?)   

Say you’re one of the “Emotionals”…Even though the “Logical You” realizes that you’re pulling your hair out over emotional issues that are simply exacerbated with all this crazy hype, you’re still ready to bite the head off the people that do surround you… and you miss the ones that aren’t around you…

Yeah, I know… it’s craziness.

Ever wonder what drives some of that craziness?  I mean you’re TRYING your darnedest to “stay in control”: “Stay in the moment”… “Keep a positive mental outlook”… “Stay busy”… “Keep active”… All this well-meaning advice boomerangs inside your scull like a private symphony!  … (Or is that “cacophony”???)

All YOU know, is that you’re tired of ALL the clichés, right???!!!

Short of making the month of February disappear from the universe… read on for another perspective…

Researchers such as Dr. Joe Dispenza (Rutgers University) and others have conclusively demonstrated that these outa-control emotions may not be ONLY all in your head…

No no… don’t fret more… that’s GOOD NEWS…

The story goes something like this: when you have an experience, your body produces a chemical associated with that experience… sometimes, your body becomes addicted to the chemical… when this happens you may be driven to re-experience whatever might be associated with that chemical in order for your body to greedily get its fix.  So you see?  You truly might be addicted to negative emotions in a physical sense!  And feeding that addiction may be driving some of the “craziness”.

Doesn’t that make sense?

Now the EVEN BETTER news.

Because that chemical is a physical thing, it has an associated resonant frequency.  If that frequency can be balanced on an electrical level in a bio resonant session, you may experience much the same feelings of lightness and success reported by folks who choose to balance “physical” stressors.

Remember, if you’re under medical or mental health supervision, continue your present course of action.  However, in order to maximize your potential for peace of mind, you might consider adding bio resonance as a partner to your present plan of action!   

Yep!  Allow sophisticated Quantum bio resonant technology to balance the physical, emotional, psychological, and environmental stresses that may be exacerbating your emotional concerns and virtually standing between you and that blissful PEACE you so deserve.  

Bio resonance offers a gentle, noninvasive, chemical-free, “Emotional Concerns Protocol” to communicate with your body and balance on an electrical level.  

Wouldn’t it be great if bio resonance would help you hang onto your sanity while dealing with the emotions surrounding Valentine’s Day?  

Don’t ya think you owe it to yourself to balance some of the stresses that might be exacerbating your emotional concerns?  Hmmmm…. Kinda like a “root cause” solution… 

Interested?

Yeah you can thank me later!

But in the meantime, what do you REALLY think about this?

The accuracy and reliability of the EPFX/SCIO bio-resonance system is based on decades of research conducted in the field of bio-energetic and bio-response medicine. 

Science has shown that the body is indeed electric.  With that in mind, the EPFX system is the best energetic medicine analysis possible.  In fact, this device is unique in its field because it measures electrical reactivity in the body via sixteen standard electrical parameters as opposed to most other standard systems which only measure a single parameter.   In addition, the EPFX, after measuring the body’s frequencies, also feeds back its own frequencies to redress or neutralize destructive wave patterns. 

The data provided by the energetic assessment and balancing of over 10,000 items offers an understanding of the body’s possible needs, dysfunctions, and vulnerabilities. This information is different from that provided by most standard medical tests (e.g., blood tests, X-rays) because it includes physical, emotional, psychological, social, and environmental aspects, which offers a more complete view of each facet of health. 

The Quantum bio-resonance system analyzes and redresses issues such as

• Nutritional Deficiencies
• Toxicities, Fungi, and Parasites
• Physical Body Organs, Muscles, Glands, Blood
• Brain Wave Patterns
• Emotional Blockages and Mental Stress

There are over 250 formal protocols available to address health challenges such as

• Lyme Disease
• Fibromyalgia
• Arthritis
• Pain
• Weight Loss
• Anti Aging
• Detoxification
• Addictions (such as Alcoholism)
• Emotional Concerns and Stress Management

Quantum bio-resonance sessions are completely chemical free, non-invasive, and they don’t hurt!  (In fact, some clients actually enjoy a blissfully regenerating nap while experiencing their session!)
