The Paradigm Shift in Healthcare

The Paradigm Shift:

A definite shift is taking place among medical doctors in North America and other industrialized nations from the specialized areas of practice toward a more holistic approach to health and healing. Many MDs are becoming disillusioned with their limited field of expertise, which mainly consists of conducting blood tests, giving EKGs, using scalpels, or prescribing pills for diagnosed symptoms of illness.

Interestingly, a significant number of U.S. medical schools are now adding courses on holistic and alternative medicine, subjects that were considered taboo in medical circles not long ago. Medical attention is indispensable during situations of crisis when organs have failed, when injuries caused by accidents require surgery or when someone is fighting a life-threatening infection.

The vast majority of illnesses, however, are chronic in nature. They include high blood pressure, heart disease, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, depression, and other acute disorders that become chronic, including cancer and AIDS. Patients are becoming increasingly disenchanted with the endless high-tech scans and tests provided by modern medicine. They offer none of the personal care and encouragement which an ill person, in need of a positive so badly needs. This feeling of alienation and helplessness drives many into the hands of alternative practitioners who spend more time with their patients and offer them approaches that include self-help programs like meditation, yoga, dietary advice, and natural remedies.

The shift from a conventional doctor to an alternative doctor or to one who really cares, however, may not be enough. Exercising your will and desire to take your health into your hands and to take responsibility for everything that happens in your life is perhaps the most powerful method of healing there is.

The most profound and continuous guarantee of good health is the taking of responsibility for your own health and life. This includes the search for and application of natural ways to improve the body, as much as avoiding those factors and influences that cause it harm. Once you know what causes disease, you will be able to lay the foundation for optimal health.
