Transform Fear to Hope and Sickness to Health
Transform Fear to Hope and Sickness to Health
Introduction and Topic Overview
(0:00) Hi, this is Dr. Daniels, and welcome to Healing with Dr. Daniels. You are listening to the Sunday April 11th edition. Yay! And today's title is "How to Transform Fear to Courage, Despair to Hope, and Sickness to Health." Yep, you heard it here. Today I'm going to simplify my journey by referencing a life of an individual who was born a slave in 1833 and achieved worldwide acclaim and fortune. It is my hope that this will inspire you to happiness, health, and wealth. And as always, think happens.
Mom's Progress and Vitality Capsules Update
(0:54) So first, update on mom. Yay! Mom continues to do well. We are just totally amazed and thankful. She just improves every day, and it's just really going well. So those of you who have old elderly people in nursing homes, do not write them off yet. I tell you. You know, it's really possible they can turn around, but not in the nursing home. So you have to take the big leap, huge leap, of getting them out. But really, she's an inspiration, I think, to us all actually. So that's mom's progress.
(1:32) Then vitality capsules, yay, are entering production. So we're really hopeful, cross our fingers, that in about three months we will have capsules.
Turpentine and Shilajit Routine
(1:51) Then, of course, we need to take our turpentine. Yay! Unscrew the tops here, get ourselves together. We have here, yay, white sugar. My screen here is not complete, so I'm not really sure what I'm showing you. Let me make my screen a full screen. There we are. Okay, so we have here sugar, yep, and we're going to get a spoonful of sugar and it's going to help our medicine go down. And our medicine is, yay, turpentine. I love turpentine. I would just say it is one of my most, really most important discoveries.
(2:45) And this is a dropper, about 2.5 cc, which is about a teaspoon. And that's what I take. I try to take it every day. Honestly, I do miss about two days a week. All righty, we have our water. I want to make sure we get it all the way down. Now, whenever I have a little bit of turpentine on my mouth, I do not lick my lips. It doesn't taste that good. First, I get the turpentine off. The sugar, okay, I can handle it.
(3:35) All right, then we have shilajit, aka momyo, aka destroyer of weakness. Yes. So this is a combination of trace minerals that act as cofactors to the enzymes your body's making. What does that mean? That means that many enzymes in your body cannot do their job or be activated or become fully active without trace mineral. And so that's what this does. This provides the trace mineral, which is that last little bit that helps your body to really function at peak effectiveness. And so there we go. And we're going to take that.
Shilajit Usage and Availability
(4:13) As you can see, that is some gooey stuff. Now, we only need 200 milligrams. This is clearly more than 200 milligrams. So what I'm going to do is put a bit back. And that looks like a good amount. Like that. Put it in there. As you can see, it does not easily or quickly dissolve. So we're going to let it sit and dissolve. I'll take it at the end of the show or after the show. All right. We're going to put some toss back on here. This goo really went outside the container, so I've got to put it back in. There we go.
(4:59) Now, this is available at the moment on eBay from the Russian Federation. It's a Russian shilajit. Shilajit is from different places in the world, but Russia is the moral owner. Okay. That's that.
Introduction to Today's Topic
(5:05) That brings us to today's topic. Yay. Okay. So the book that I'm reading, this has just been an amazing book. So the name of the book is The Beautiful Jim Key. I'm going to show you the cover because it can be hard to find. And so when you find it, The Beautiful Jim Key. And I picked it up because I heard about this person who was born a slave. Yeah, right. Lots of people. Long time ago, we were born slaves. But he was born a slave. He fought in a war. And as a prisoner of war, became a millionaire. Really?
(6:07) And when the war ended, this is the Civil War we're talking about, he went back to his slave owner, only to find the poor slave owner had lost everything in the war because the Confederate, of course, lost the war. And so he bought the slave owner's property back from the bank. So the slave owner could live on that property the rest of his life. I said, Wow, that's an amazing story. There must be more to it. I've got to find out about it. So I got the book and started reading it. And sure enough, it is just an amazing, not only amazing book, but is a big, I think, inspiration for the present times that we're going through.
Story of William "Bill" Key
(6:57) Okay, so he was born in 1833. Now, try and follow this because I know I had to think about it a while to get it straight. And I realized why the families, so many families are so confused and difficult to sort out, like who's related to who. But he was a mulatto, half African and half Caucasian. So his master, his father was also his master, and his mother was a slave. Now, his master died of drunkenness, and he was inherited by his uncle, who was not only a kind soul, but an incompetent businessman, and owned a very small farm and really didn't have any slaves until he inherited Bill Key and his mother and siblings.
(7:52) So not having any children at the time, William's new slave owner, which was his uncle, by the way, just raised William as a son. And he and his wife went on to have many children, but continued to treat Bill as their son. Now, when he was about eight or so, his uncle, which was his new master, fell on hard times. Actually, he'd been on hard times for a while. And the wife said, hey, you know, we've got these slaves here. We're not doing anything with them. And, you know, we're all poor here going down the tubes. Why don't you lease them out to my brother, who we owe all this money to?
(8:33) So he then allowed the brother-in-law to lease Bill, his mother, siblings, and these are the slave siblings, out in payment of the debt. Now, during the 10 years that he was leased out, he gave this some thought. He said, well, you know, 10 years of being leased out, might as well learn as many skills as I possibly can. And so he mastered so many really valuable skills. He mastered the skill of healing horses, healing people. And he also made himself this premise. I'm going to read this a couple of times during today's show.
Bill Key's Vow and Freedom
(9:00) So it says, something fundamental changed in his sense of self, a shift. Bill vowed to have no masters other than God and himself. And whether his legal status was made free or not, he would become free in his mind and come to be responsible for whatever good or evil befell him. It's an important concept. He decided that he would become free in his mind and, more precisely, be responsible for whatever good or evil befell him. So in other words, if something good happened to him, he would examine what party he had it in. If something bad happened to him, again, he would take responsibility for that, treat them both the same.
(10:07) I think it was Hamlet that said, success and failure are both imposters. You should treat them both the same. But here, Bill, this slave, figured that out for himself. So what happened after his 10 years of being leased out, the debt was paid. He returned to his master, assessed the situation, and said to the master, look, why don't you let me make as much money as I can with all the skills that I've acquired, and I'll pay all the bills around here, and we'll just make this thing work. And his master said, sounds good to me.
(10:54) Meanwhile, his siblings, which was his master's children by the master's wife, considered Bill to be their brother because he'd been so before he left. And so they set to work treating, teaching him to read and write. And meanwhile, though, the war broke out. The war between the North and the South broke out. And so Bill figured out that this war was not worth anyone getting involved in. It was just, the whole thing was just a little bit shady here. And before he could stop them, his two half-brothers, or basically, I guess they were his cousins. They were his master's biological children by the master's wife.
(11:43) They joined the Confederate Army. And he's like, ugh. So he went down and signed up to join the Confederate Army to watch over them, assist them, and make sure they didn't die. And he got them non-combat positions based on their ability to read, which back then was a very rare skill. And he basically fought on the side of the South in non-combat positions, again, because he could read and write and had other skills. But while he fought for the Confederate, he helped countless slaves escape to the North to freedom. However, his luck ran out and he got captured.
Bill Key's Capture and Survival
(12:24) So now he was not only a slave fighting for the Confederate, but he was now captured by the North. And of course, well, they figured only one thing to do with this person, put him, got to put him to death. So they were going to kill him, but he saved himself because he says, whoa, whoa, whoa, I can cook. And so he became the cook and he cooked so well that they allowed him to live. Now you might say, oh, cook, come on. But imagine you're on the battlefield, there's no proper kitchen, and you've got somebody to actually cook food that tastes good. Like, okay, he gets to live. But he also knew how to play poker, taught himself how to play poker.
(13:09) And so as the cook and a very good poker player, he won all of the possessions of the commander of the unit. He ended up owning everything, owning the guy's land, his animals, all of his possessions, jewels, everything. And I guess a few other people as well. So what he decided to do, so he had all this stuff. So he bartered his, I think he actually started a business too while he was being the cook and winning at poker. But he took his winnings, went to the commander and said, hey, look, here's the deal. I'll forfeit all my winnings to you, yours, if you give me my freedom. And the guy said, yeah, sure.
(14:01) So he got his freedom. He started a horse limit business, veterinary business, and just business after business. And so by the time, even before he left the war, before he got his freedom, he had over a million dollars in today's dollars in winnings. But he didn't stop there. He started these businesses and he went back home to his master's farm. It wasn't a plantation. This is a very modest slave owner. And he finds his uncle has lost the farm. He's lost the farm. And so he, a former slave, he's free now, buys the farm back from the bank. So his uncle, his second slave owner, can live out a life in days of comfort.
(14:52) And he sends his two brothers. These are the 100% white children of the slave owners. He sends the two of these boys to Harvard, pays their tuition. And he marries four times. And he sends his brother-in-laws to vet school. Now, very, very accomplished person. And after he made quite a fortune, he, at that point, had a horse that he had trained. And the horse was doing a horse show and selling horse limit, among other things. And a person named Mr. Rogers, the son of a wealthy family, and he was the heir apparent to a railroad fortune, wasn't interested in railroads. So what he said was like, you know, I just want to publicize, you know, entertainers.
The Beautiful Jim Key's Success and Legacy
(15:34) And so he learned about the wonderful Jim Key, this horse that could do math and spell and give change. And his family, of course, disapproved of this. It's a terrible thing. But he and Bill got together and they toured the country and became famous for this particular horse act. And also, it really was an important milestone in the development of the animal rights groups and humane societies.
(16:32) So over time, what happens, though, is the family loses the fortune due to the automobile, and the promotion business grows and restores the family fortune. So what can we learn from this? So we have this pivotal person, Bill Key, who, born a slave, became a prisoner of war, fought for the confederate, was a double spy, liberated countless numbers of slaves. And everyone's life he touched, regardless of their complexion, slave or free, whatever, he enriched them. He enriched his owners, he enriched his relatives, his in-laws, everyone in his life. But if we look at his credo, he vowed to have no masters other than God and himself, and whether his legal status was made free or not, he would become free in his mind and come to be responsible for whatever good or evil befell him.
Lessons from Bill Key's Life
(17:44) If you listen to that, then it becomes obvious you need only change your expectation, and this fear becomes courage. Why? Because fear is just expectations of bad things appearing real. And so if you change your expectations of bad things, then you can have expectations of good things, and they can appear equally real. Fear, gone. So people ask me, like, how do I have so much courage? And of course, I didn't understand the question, because I didn't understand that fear was something that's self-generated. It's simply a product of your expectations. So of course, I didn't have expectations of negative or fearful things happening.
(18:40) So I expected and planned so that the things I valued, the positive things, would happen. Now of course, I had fears, everyone has fears, and so I arranged my life to avoid those things that I feared. So my day-to-day life wasn't filled with any fear.
Converting Sickness to Health
(18:47) Now the next thing is, well, how do you convert sickness to health? How does that happen? Now here is a very important thing. Listen up. This is critical, because if you miss this one, it's a biggie. So you gotta grasp this one. So if you become free in your mind, well, first of all, you have to vow to have no masters other than God and yourself. That's the first part. No masters other than God and yourself. That means you don't accept the doctor, or the nurse, the hospital administrator, or any of these authority figures as a master. The only master you accept is God and yourself. And if you don't believe in God, hey, that's fine, I get it. At least be your own master. That makes you the master.
(19:35) And then whether your legal status is made free or not, in other words, whether legally you have the status that says you're not free to make your own health decisions, you've got to become free in your mind and come to be responsible for whatever good or evil, whatever health or illness befalls you. Now if you can do that, you are way ahead of the game. Way ahead of the game.
(20:13) So in other words, if you realize that you have no masters other than God and yourself, then you realize that you're not obligated to follow or do what any health individual might tell you, that really the decision is totally yours. Then legal status. So whether there's a law that says you have to take this drug, that drug, this shot, the other shot, or whatever, you realize that that law is not an issue. So whether his legal status was made free or not, in other words, whether the law says he was free or not, he would become free in his mind. That's what you have to do, become free in your mind and come to be responsible for whatever good, in this case, health or evil, in that case, illness befalls you. That goes a very long way.
Freedom and Responsibility
(21:08) So once you realize that you're the master and once you realize that you're responsible for whatever health or illness you have, then it becomes super obvious that healthcare, hospitals, doctors, drugs are irrelevant. They don't matter. They don't matter. And laws saying do this, do that, again, they don't matter. And the ultimate responsibility lies with you. This saves you tons of money. So the average American is going to save between $3,000 and $20,000 a year just in health insurance premiums by understanding this itty-bitty principle here.
(21:53) Then if you're into research, you can go to my website, listen to the radio archives, anything 2018 and earlier, and it explains to you the death toll from the medical industrial complex. Short story is at least 40% of all deaths in the United States are caused by interaction with and obedience to the medical industrial complex. So this is an amazing philosophy and it can, for most people, make them pretty darn wealthy overnight.
(22:56) So Bill vowed to have no masters other than God and himself. And whether his legal status was made free or not, he would become free in his mind and come to be responsible for whatever good or evil befell him. And this one thing allowed him to take responsibility and take ownership to such a degree that he was able to become extremely wealthy. He was able to become a famous horse healer. And they called him Dr. Key, Dr. William Key, because he healed, was a healer for humans and for animals, horses in particular alike. So this is super, super important. And I would recommend anyone really get this book.
Comparing Historical and Modern Times
(23:26) Now, you might say, oh, Dr. Daniels, Mr. Key or Dr. Key lived in different times. And, you know, we have so much going on nowadays and life is so complicated. I thought so, too. Then I got to this one page in the book and I said, oh, my God. So here it is. This is pretty, pretty brief. So this is 1903. Well, in the decade between 1896 and 1906 alone, human ingenuity created everything from jello gelatin dessert to the engine powered airplane. So they went from no airplanes to airplanes. The radio was invented in 1896. Electric stove, 1896. We're still using electric stoves today, by the way. Aspirin invented in 1897.
(24:47) Telephone with answering machine, 1898. Anesthesia, 1898. Flashlight battery operated portable, 1899. Tape recorder. Wireless telephone. And you thought cell phones were new. Wireless telephone was around in 1899. Wait, the list? That's only half the list. Radio telephone. The Zeppelin blimp, there were no blimps, 1900. Electric vacuum cleaner, 1901. Electric typewriter, 1901. Air conditioning, which we still use today, 1902. Crayons, 1901. Electrocardiogram, 1903. Silicon. We use silicon everywhere now. Invented in 1904. Animation of motion pictures, 1906. And radio amplifier, 1906.
(25:12) Now, imagine a world without any of those things. None of those things. And then in 10 years, boom, all of those things appear. That's a tremendous transition and a lot of change. And so in that particular time period, it was a tremendous amount of people, just like it is today. And when you read the book, you'll hear political statements that sound just like they sound today. Like, uh, nothing much has changed. And guess what? They got through it back then with a lot of prosperity and happiness and health. And you can too.
Conclusion and Q&A
(26:02) So that is the, so the big thing that we can learn from this is what we are experiencing today in 2021 in terms of upheaval or change is not something new. Humans have handled it before and you can handle it now. And definitely, certainly reading a book like The Beautiful Jim Key will make it a lot easier for you to be inspired and realize just how capable you are and that you really can do it. Okay. That takes us to today's questions. Yay. Let's go find them.
(26:49) I found them without having to click a thing. I'm so excited.
(26:49) Okay. So hi, Dr. Daniels. I'll bet I'm not, I think I answered this question before, but what the heck? I'll answer it again. I bet I'm not the only one that has this question. I'm wanting to get more collagen into my body. I put pig feet in the slow cooker. What part do I eat? Everything. Everything. Everything. Except the actual bone. So the rubbery part, chew it up and swallow it. Everything. Same question with ham hocks. Same answer. And if I'm successful finding pig ears, pig ears, everything. The only thing you might want to do is maybe shave the hair off with one of those disposable dick razors.
(27:25) When I first started eating pig ears, the hair, I thought the hair was really gross. Like, oh. And so I would shave the hair off. I think the only thing more gross than eating the hair and the pig ears is shaving it off. So what I do is I try and get the pig ears with the least amount of hair on them and I scrub them. But that's personal preference. Whatever you decide, whether you shave the hair off the pig ears or not, it's still going to be beneficial for you. So yeah, the whole thing. I sure do like your suggestions. You have all the information. You are welcome. Thank you for being there to help and guide us on our health journey, Sue.
(28:17) You're welcome, Sue. Hi, Dr. Daniels. Thank you for your voice of reason. Truth happens. Yeah, sometimes. My wife is 63 and has varicose veins. She's been wearing compression socks to help. My question is, what causes varicose veins? So varicose veins are caused by incompetent valves in the veins. So the veins have valves in them. And what happens is as you walk, your calf muscle and your other leg muscles squeeze the veins, pushing the blood back up to your heart. And over time, what happens is those valves become incompetent. And they don't hold. And the blood falls down and pools in the vessels. And it looks like these big, fat, ugly snakes. That's the theory.
(29:03) As a practical matter, what I found is when I met my husband, he had varicose veins, I mean the size of small snakes. I couldn't believe it. I'm like, well, geez, that's pretty dangerous. I mean, if he got a nick, he'd bleed to death. But just by changing his diet and eating more vegetables, his varicose veins, the caliber, first of all, half of them disappeared. And the ones that remained were maybe the size of a pencil or less. Are compression socks helpful? I don't think so.
(29:54) Sylvie says, Dr. Daniels, I so appreciate your work. Could you talk about the British NHS? Is it safer than the American system as there are no insurance companies involved? Or is the system as appalling corrupt as in the US? Doing medical interventions are not needed, stealing body parts from the organ donation industry and so on. Who gets money from the NHS? Many things. Okay. So actually, obviously the NHS is just as unsafe, maybe even more so than the American system. The reason for this is the patient has no input. The patients are irrelevant because it's the government that decides what you get, how it's done and whatever. So that makes it much, much more dangerous.
(30:34) In the United States, at least the patient says, I'm not paying for this or I don't want this or something like that. So who gets the money from the NHS? So this is happening in the United States. Now the money is shifting away from the doctors. The doctors no longer, that's not where the money is. The money goes to the administrators who coordinate things and receive the payments from the government. So that's where most of the money goes and also to pharmaceuticals. But I've worked with many people from the UK and there's no evidence that the system is any safer.
(31:31) So I'd like to start, hi Dr. Nance, I'd like to start off by saying thank you for helping my father with the discovery session and the appointment. I just want to know how often should I use the sugar turpentine? So I use it every day. So if you're using half a teaspoon or less, you can use it every day. If you're using anything more than half a teaspoon, then you should use it twice a week. I've had a high reading of potassium from my labs. So the question is how high is it? So the body dumps potassium. Potassium in, potassium out. Potassium in, potassium out. So if you have too much potassium remaining in your body, that means there's not enough potassium out or too much potassium in.
(32:06) So potassium is dumped basically in the intestines. So simply increasing your bowel movements and increasing your water intake will lower your potassium substantially. I would start with that. As far as what you're putting in, if you're taking supplements, look at them very, very carefully to make sure you're not taking any supplements that have potassium as an ingredient. Avoid foods with potassium. So the highest potassium foods are refined foods. So if you stay away from refined foods, you'll be just fine. For example, orange juice, very high in potassium. Real problem. But if you're just eating oranges, not a problem. So if you can just leave refined foods alone, you should do okay as far as that goes.
(32:55) Just want to know, can anyone take vitality capsules? Anyone who's not on blood thinners, yes. Okay, that brings us to our 30 minutes here. And so we will see you again in a week. And as always, think happens.
