Basic Tenants in Wholistic Kinesiology® Part 1

Basic tenants in Wholistic Kinesiology® are these:

1. The body has an amazing ability to be well if it’s given the right tools. The power that made the body can heal the body.
2. The body can tell you through muscle testing where imbalances are.
3. The body runs on food, (carbohydrates, proteins, fats), vitamins and minerals and if it gets the proper amounts of these and the proper kinds of these, it will run smoothly and you will be healthy. If you ignore any of these elements, it will begin to malfunction and disease processes begin.
4. Lack of the above nutrients can come from variety of sources: Lack of nutrients in our diets, improper supplementation, excess stress (emotional, physical and chemical), active disease processes, (parasites, yeast or fungal infections, viruses) and hereditary factors.
5. The body can tell you what it needs through muscle testing and how much it needs in a very accurate way.

I know that this must sound a little too simple and easy. It is! I have seen these techniques work their miracles over and over again in the many years that I have been using Kinesiology. The power and beauty of the human body still constantly amaze me. It is truly a miraculous system. And I am amazed at how well these techniques work at helping to restore the body back to balance and health. I see people get their lives back daily.

The time has come for us to reclaim our power in the health care field. There is an explosion in the medical field of new scientific advances and technology. This takes us even further from the way nature intended our bodies to work. We need to go back to the beginning, and understand how our bodies work.

The basic requirements have not changed for eons. We still require good food, with proper nutrients for our bodies to function properly. We will never be able to replace that basic concept. To deviate from this is disaster. Technology would have us believe that we can create the stuff of life in the laboratory. We constantly try to achieve bigger and better yields from our crops by bioengineering with less and less nutritional components in the food we are eating. How can we have healthy bodies at this time? It is very difficult to achieve. We are also bombarded daily with pollutants and challenges that we are as yet unable to adapt to. Witness the explosion of cancerous conditions. Cancer threatens to overcome heart disease soon as the number one killer. Where is this coming from? A breakdown in our basic nutrition coupled with exposures to foreign substances that are wreaking havoc on our immune systems. Because we ignore the basic needs for clean air, pure water, and basic nutrients, vitamins, minerals. We expect our bodies to put up with incredible amounts of abuse and still keep performing. We fill our bodies with junk, take drugs, travel miles to get to work in polluted environments, don’t replenish our nutrients and then wonder what happened when we suddenly get sick. We then expect to go to the doctor and take more chemicals in the hope of curing us. We have so overlooked the obvious answer. Back to the basics!! Let’s treat our bodies right and then we have the right to expect good health. Modern science will never replace this concept.

The modern method of medicine is not that old. We have a relatively short history with allopathic medicine, but it has so invaded our consciousness that we can’t even think about how it may have been in the past. We think of the past of medicine as the dark ages. What did People do when they had cavities, heart disease, osteoporosis, cancer. The fact is these diseases are of modern origin also. None of this existed before the advent of modern nutritional practices. Our technology has been our demise and now we expect technology to come to our rescue. But believe me, headaches never have been and never will be an aspirin deficiency.
