Welcome to Healthy Being!

New Anniversary Message for Dr John Whitman Ray

Hello everyone.

21st April 2012 marks 11 years since Dr Sir John Whitman Ray, founder of Body Electronics, died, and so once again I take this opportunity to reflect on his contribution to humanity. Body Electronics is an incredible teaching that continues to delight its true students. Who are these “true” students? They are those who, although they may not understand every nuance of every principle, are yet dedicated, in their way, to applying what they have, while searching for more.

There are two pitfalls for the sincere student:

1. “Forever learning but never coming to a knowledge of the truth,” which, as the Apostle, Paul, indicated, can reflect a lifetime wasted looking for intellectual satisfaction before being willing to stand up and apply what one already has. It is especially true in Body Electronics that application at whatever level you are outranks knowledge unused, for a small amount of knowledge put to work in faith will produce fruits far beyond any idle genius. It isn’t what you’ve got, but how you use it, that counts.

2. “I have enough; I need no more,” which seals one from illumination by the Light of God. When one feels one has “arrived” and thus requires no further effort to acquire more, then one has ceased seeking, asking and knocking and therefore cannot expect the flow of spiritual blessings to attend one. This person may be well versed in the principles, but because they have closed their eyes to wider possibilities has ceased in their growth. Whatever understanding we may feel we have, especially that derived from our own intellect, we are truly ignorant without the Light of God, which alone illumines the mind and warms the heart. No matter what one has attained to in the past, without this Light, all will become lost. A human understanding can be awesome but we do not comprehend more than a small fraction of what can be understood through the spiritual eye.

Mission Statement

At Healthy Being we are dedicated to addressing the true causes behind all health conditions. While we can help with the relief of symptoms, we also recognise that symptoms have an internal or external cause that, unless rectified, will tend to result in the eventual reappearance of the symptoms.

What is Body Electronics?

Contrary to what may be suggested by the name, Body Electronics, there are no gadgets or electrical devices used. The name simply refers to the innate electrical or electronic nature of the body and the method and benefits of removing blockages and alterations to the flow of nerve impulses and other forms of communication in the body.

What is Pointholding?

Pointholding is one of the main therapeutic aspects of Body Electronics. It usually involves applying finger pressure to a region of the body with the intention of helping dissolve crystals underlying that area. These crystals interfere with nerve impulses and other forms of communication in the body.

Featured Book

Written by my good friend and Body Electronics icon, Dr Doug Morrison, this is essential reading for Body Electronics.

Originally titled, "Body Electronics Fundamentals", it was actually the first BE book ever published. Now extensively revised and updated and in its second printing, this one has appeal to a much broader cross-section of the public.

Coherently written, Doug uses analogies that everyone can relate to, even as he explains concepts that most find radical. How We Heal is where most people start their Body Electronics education.

What is a Healing Crisis?

Healing Crisis is the reversal of a previous disease process, entailing the temporary reappearance of old symptoms as the body heals itself. These may be thought of as "cleansing reactions" but may extend far beyond physical symptoms into the re-experience of emotional and psychological states that accompanied various traumatic experiences in life.

What May Happen During a Body Electronics Healing Crisis?

During the reversal of previous trauma or degenerative conditions, absolutely any symptom that has been previously experienced may surface again until such time as the healing crisis is completed. For example, if there have been headaches, nausea, pain or constipation, etc, these same things may re-appear during healing crisis. Emotional and psychological states, such as anxiety, depression, anger, etc may also resurface, typically unexpectedly and without seeming explanation until such time as the healing crisis is complete.

Environmental Toxicity

The environment we choose to live in may have a significant effect upon our health. In particular, there are a number of toxic substances we may be exposed to, which can cause severe disruption of bodily functions. These may include heavy metals such as mercury and fluoride, commonly added to drinking water by well-meaning health authorities, to name but two. Pesticide use in farming is in a similar category. The novel science of Genetic Engineering also poses a significant threat to life.

Organics

You could be forgiven for thinking that organic farming is a new fad, but in fact it was the only way food could be grown until around the 1930's, when petrochemical fertilisers, pesticides and herbicides came into use. Traditionally, if you wanted a big profitable crop the only way to do it was to invest in the inherent health of the plants and soil, which of course means greater nutrient density in our food.

Essential Books

A book can often provide only a small insight into what may be a person's life work, so a truly comprehensive treatise on health can be hard to find. The only answer is to seek out books and lots of them, to compare approaches, "join the dots" between researchers, discover success stories and glean the sometimes rare tidbits to round out your understanding.

At first you may find only contradiction and look for the "right" and "wrong", but as you begin to understand the uniqueness of each person, the possible causes of illness, the true path to health and that there is more at work than diets and techniques you may gradually perceive a much bigger picture.

Ok, I'm a bookworm and proud of it! But the fact remains that the richness of any practitioner's skills comes from their diversity of understanding, not just a single dogmatic belief. The same is true for anyone on the path to self-healing. You need to research until you find what works for you - it may take a combination of many things to unlock your unique health picture.

So visit Essential Books, my recommended reading list, or you may wish to go straight to Amazon.com in USA or to Fishpond in NZ or Australia if you want to do your own searching.

I write my own books to fill the gaps where others have not written. You can see some of them here on my Products page.

 

Fertility, Pregnancy and Childbirth

If you were going to run a marathon or go on a long journey, you’d prepare for it, right? In fact, you know that the better your preparation, the better the experience. Fertility, pregnancy and childbirth are no different.

The prevailing "wisdom" seems to be that conception, pregnancy and childbirth are mere biological processes to be "optimised" or controlled. These wonders of life are thus relegated to “mechanisms” and chemical cycles, with a bit of random chance thrown into the mix. Biology and physiology are elevated to excessive proportions, but what about timing, readiness and other realms beyond normal perception or consideration?

My perspectives on fertility, pregnancy and childbirth may surprise you.

Christchurch Earthquakes

As I write this, a city of around half a million people is traumatised, but, in my view, this is no ordinary trauma and in fact may be some sort of blessing.

On September 4^th, 2010, a 7.1 magnitude earthquake struck Christchurch city in my home country, New Zealand. Remarkably, while there was widespread damage, not a single life was lost. Compare this to the Haiti earthquake last year, where a 7.0 magnitude event killed tens of thousands.

After some 8000 aftershocks, on February 22^nd, 2011, just 3 days ago, a 6.3 quake has struck Christchurch, this time killing well over 100 people, with perhaps another 200 as yet unaccounted for. If in September we had widespread damage, now we have absolute devastation. How is this a blessing and how could anyone who has lost a loved one contemplate this? For my own part, after deep introspection I wonder how it could be anything else.
