You Are Already Healthy

Hi, this is Dr. Daniels, and you're listening to Healing with Dr. Daniels. This is the Sunday, October 3rd, 2021 edition. Yay! Welcome, October. And depending on where you sit, there might even be some chilly weather. Today's title is "You Are Already Healthy." Yep, that's right. Today, I'm going to share with you the good news that you already have everything you need to be healthy. That's right. And as always, things happen.

But first, we'll give the update on mom. Mom is actually doing well. She's kind of status quo, just hanging out there, chilling. There's been some staff changes at the house, and she's handling those well. Everyone is extremely excited about her newfound independence. It's like she's starting a whole new chapter in her life. So we're all extremely happy for her. Go mom.

And then we have, of course, Vitality Capsules. Yay! Vitality Capsules. We have Vitality Capsules regular and Vitality Capsules extra strength. Vitality Capsules are the internal cleanser that is comfortable and safe enough for everyday use. They promote your circulation, clean out those bile ducts, and we really love how they clean out those intestines. Yay! So you can find out more about Vitality Capsules at Vitality Cycles. That's vitalitycycles.com. And if there's anything you notice on the website that's out of place or difficult, please let us know. We're in the process of improving it. You can contact us at info@vitalitycycles.com. Yay!

As many of you know, I am 64 years old and shocked to find out that I am officially elderly. I guess it can happen to the best of us. However, I have been progressing on my journey. As you may know, I've mastered my left front splits, my right front splits, and now I've got them even where they're square. So my hips are square, and I'm sitting on the ground comfortably. I'm working on my center splits and backbends. My latest accomplishment is that I have managed the throwdown leg lift. Yep. Google that. Throwdown leg lift. This is an exercise where the person helping you stands at your head as you lay on your back. You lift your legs up, and they take your legs and throw them down. Your legs are not supposed to touch the floor, and you bring them right back up. I can now do 10 reps. And that's for a lady who four years ago could not even do one sit-up. Yes. So there is hope. Stick with it. Don't give up. You can do it. Absolutely.

Next is turpentine. I am going to take my turpentine, and you, of course, are welcome to join me. We're going to use a United States teaspoon. This is five cc's or five grams, depending on how you count it in your country. We're going to use white sugar. You should always label your containers. This could be white sugar, salt, or vitamin C, but we've labeled it so there is no doubt. I take a heaping teaspoon, not too heaping, just modestly heaping, like a teaspoon and a half.

Then we have turpentine. Again, label your bottles so people can tell it is not a beverage. It is turpentine. I use a three cc pipette. At the neck right there is two and a half cc's, which is half a teaspoon. Squeeze out the air, suck up the turpentine. Yay. Oops, that's a little bit too much turpentine above the neck. Since this is natural healing, we need just the right amount. More is not better. Everything is just right. So we're going to squeeze this right here. There we go. Bam. Done.

We have our water standing by. As you can imagine, turpentine is not the tastiest. I have tasted worse, but just saying. To find out more about turpentine and how it can be a part of your natural healing plan, go to vitalitycycle.com and get the Candida Clean Air Report. Yes. Definitely read it, I would say, three times before you take any actions. Make sure that you understand it and have it sorted out.

Next, we're going to take Shilajit. Shilajit is a trace mineral supplement. The best quality comes from Russia. Here it is, Shilajit. This little container is enough for a year and a half. Yes. And as you can see, I've been using it for some time. It is quite black and quite dark. It's a blend of about 80 trace minerals. We're going to take this chopstick, pull out a small amount. The amount you want is 200 milligrams. That is a bit more than 200 milligrams, which is a fifth of a gram. So we're going to take that, scrape off one side. There we go. Bam. Okay. That's pretty close to 200 milligrams. We're going to take that, put it in the water. As you can see, it does not readily dissolve. So we're going to be patient and just let that sit right there. Actually, I will be drinking that after the show off camera. All right. We're going to put the top back on our various things here because you are looking at the housekeeper, and we don't want to make too big a mess.

That brings us to today's topic. Yay! You are already healthy. Yes. This may sound odd, even silly, but hey, listen up. If you had enough juice to even listen to this, then you are already healthy. I got this from a book title that really irritated me at the time. Some get-rich-quick guru said, "You are already rich." Huh? I said to myself, well, how come I'm broke? Well, you might feel the same way about your health. If you're already healthy, how come you feel sick? Maybe you have arthritis, hypertension, diabetes, or depression. Who knows? Well, the secret is that you have everything you need to be healthy. You have a tremendous amount of resources and value. You just need to convert that value into health. The same way that even though I was at the time quite broke, I had lots of value and simply needed to take a portion of that value—not all of it, just a portion—and convert it into finances to be wealthy. It's the same with being healthy. You have all the resources you need. You just need to convert a portion of your resources—not even a lot, just a portion—and that will become health.

So here's the thing. It's like the seven hermetic principles. You can look those up too. Seven hermetic principles. They say all is energy, all is frequency. Opposites are different degrees of the same thing. Health and unhealthy are actually different degrees of the same thing. All things can be converted into their opposites. So if you are alive, then you've got control of some energy and what you do with that energy. Your health is determined by what you do with that energy. If you're ill, it's because you need to convert some of your energy and frequency to one that manifests the health you want. It's just that simple.

Now, caution: define health as a functional outcome, not a laboratory test. You can destroy your life chasing numbers. Here are some health definitions. My definition of health is a condition of your body and mind that permits you to achieve a state of physical, mental, and social well-being you desire. That's it. So health is defined by your desires. No one else can define health for you. This is an important concept.

The World Health Organization and the Center for Disease Control have a different definition of health. They say complete physical, mental, and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, along with a range of World Health Organization partners, endorse this definition. Being healthy, in their view, excludes having any disease. I don't agree with that. Not at all. Many people, I would say actually 100% of people, have parasites. Parasites could be considered a disease, but people with parasites can still be healthy. You can't go chasing and excluding every disease. Most of my life, I have had abnormal laboratory values. I don't get lab tests done, so I don't know the situation now, but when I was in my 20s, 30s, and even 40s, I had quite a few abnormal lab values. My position was, "Hey, I'm doing everything I want to do with my health, with my life. I feel fine." So we're going to just leave these abnormal lab values alone and ignore them. Here I am, 64, and doing quite okay. So complete physical, mental, and social well-being is not going to work. If you have one leg shorter than the other, does that mean you need surgery to make one leg longer or cut the other shorter? No.

The definition I like is a condition of your body and mind that permits you to achieve a state of physical, mental, and social well-being that you desire. And that's it. With that definition, many of you listeners probably are going to have to sit down and think and redefine what you are thinking of as health. For example, for one person, hanging their laundry out on the line without pain might be health. Another person might define health as the ability to pick up their three-year-old child easily and without any difficulties. For someone else, it might be the ability to read the print in a book. For another, it might be going for a walk without needing a cane. For one person, it might be a 10-minute walk, for another, a 30-minute walk. You have to define health for you. What is the thing that you want to do that would be an indication of health to you? It's not possible to have a one-size-fits-all definition of health.

More examples: maybe you want to attend a child or grandchild's graduation. Maybe you want to attend your child's wedding. Maybe you want to dance at the wedding or simply not wet your pants at the wedding. Whatever your ambition is, this is different for each person, again based on personality and stage of life. Try this sentence: "If I can [fill in the blank], then I'm happy." That's one way of figuring out what your health target is or what health is to you. If it seems really far away, pick smaller targets. For example, if what you really want to do is walk independently without assistance of any kind, maybe you could set your goal to walk with one cane instead of two. Once you hit that goal, maybe try a straight cane, not a quad cane. Once you hit that goal, maybe you can try 50 feet with no cane, and so on, to finally get to left and right front splits if you want to go that far. You get the idea.

So you've decided what the marker for health is for you. Next, check your resources. Always check your resources. Nothing in life is free. If only the price could be paid in money, it would be so simple. But no, this is not just a matter of money. If only it were, you could take out a loan and be healthy, but no. You're doing an assessment of your resources. Let's walk through this together.

First of all, you're already drinking something. I don't know what it is, but you're drinking something. Let's say you're drinking some water. Change the water you're drinking to purified water that does not bring in disease and drink it in amounts that make you feel better. That would be, if you ask me, distilled or reverse osmosis water, for example. Maybe you're drinking something that's not water. No problem. Dilute it with water or replace it with water. There you go.

Hot tip: replacing is far, far easier than quitting. It's much easier to replace something than to quit. In my case, for example, I wanted to get stronger so I could do more things. I was already eating food. Turns out, in order to get stronger, you need to eat beef, pork, and rice. Yeah, beef, pork, and rice. So I changed what I was eating. Instead of chicken, I started eating more beef. Now, there's a big price difference between beef and chicken, so I eliminated all of my fish and chicken and replaced it with beef and pork. If you're trying to get weaker or lose weight, just reverse that: cut the beef and add more chicken and fish, or go vegetarian. Either way, you have more than enough resources to transition to your definition of a healthier lifestyle or life.

In the food area, just identify what is helping your health goal and eat more of it. Identify what's worsening your health goal and eat less of it. That's right. Now, you already have 24 hours in a day. Use more of them toward reaching your health goals. I recommend starting with like 15-minute changes in a day. If that's too much, start with three minutes a day. You could just think about your health goal—how to get purified water, for example. After enough thinking about it, you're bound to come up with some solutions or a few prospects.

These 24 hours you have in your day, set aside some hours for sleep. That's a pretty easy place to start. Turns out that as far as getting healthy goes or making your body stronger, if you can just make sure you're in bed doing absolutely nothing from 10 p.m. to 2 a.m., that's the first step. Now you can expand on that. Personally, I like to go to bed at 8 or 9 and get up at 6 or 7. That's just me. A different situation might work for you. The reason I share that with you is to let you know there's a broad range of what could be acceptable and to encourage you to adjust wherever you're at now in one direction or another and see if you actually feel better the next day.

Now you've got your sleep time taken care of, let's call it 8 to 10 hours a day, at least your 14 hours. Then there's your activities, right? If there's something that you have to do, use some of that 24 hours a day that you have and do more stuff that brings you closer to your goal and less stuff that keeps you from your goal. Again, start small. I say three minutes, five minutes, or even more. I actually built up to three hours a day of walking. And of course, I started with 10 minutes. I was able to walk, well, actually five minutes. I built up to three hours a day of walking. Now I've built up to one hour a day of gymnastics. In your case, it might not be gymnastics. It might be cooking at home or other activities that could improve your health, for example. If you're trying to read the print in a book, maybe you want to rinse out your eyes with some ginger water or ginger tea.

Some days, even two hours of gymnastics. Again, start where you are. Most things that I do, I literally start with zero reps. That would be like a half a rep. That would mean maybe getting in the position to do the exercise and giving it a try. Can't do that one. Then eventually build up, build up, build up. Once I get to 10 reps easily on an exercise, I'll make it more difficult. For example, I started with zero reps on sit-ups. All I could do was lay on my back and make my belly tense, but nothing happened. I didn't lift up off the ground. But I kept at it. Now I can do 10 reps of throwdown leg lifts, which is pretty amazing.

So what's the point here? The point is you have all the resources you need to be healthy. You just need to deploy those resources differently. The resources that it demands for you to be healthy, you already have them. You just need to deploy them differently. We're not talking about necessarily acquiring more resources or spending large sums of money. You can just transfer what you're already spending in a different direction. Instead of coffee, alcohol, soda pop, or fruit juice, you can just maybe get a water purifier and purify your water.

Again, it's simply a change of where you are putting your energy, identifying those things that are lessening or destroying your health, and doing less of them, and then doing more things to improve your health. The good news is that you don't have to be perfect. A lot of times, once you get to even 50%, where you get rid of half the stuff that's interfering with your health and add stuff that is improving your health, a lot of times you will find that you get to your goal very quickly. So go for it. And remember, you're already healthy. You've got everything you need. All you have to do is just get going. As one lady on the internet says, "Ain't nothing to do but do it." I love that. Ain't nothing to do but do it. So you can do it.

That brings us to questions, which reminds me. Occasionally at the end of the show, I can answer questions. You can send your questions to jdaaniels@gmail.com. That's jdaaniels@gmail.com. Yep. We can't guarantee we'll answer all the questions, but we're going to try and get to them. And today's a good day, so we've got nine minutes here. Yay! And we can answer questions.

A listener asks about perimenopause. At 42 years old, they get hot flashes and sweat a lot. Intense menstrual pain subsided after starting Vitality Capsules. To address hot flashes and sweating, first, ensure you're getting three or four bowel movements a day with the Vitality Capsules. Next, eliminate dairy entirely, cut meat in half, and you'll see improvement.

Another listener asks about athlete's foot, finding relief from burning with castor oil foot soaks but not itching. Consider changing footwear to something more open, as athlete's foot thrives in warm, moist environments. Address your diet to get tougher skin and reduce sugar, bread, and fruit juices to help combat athlete's foot.

Lastly, a listener with fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, and joint pain is advised to add connective tissue foods like pig's feet, cow feet, pig ears, ham hocks, beef tendons, and chicken feet to their diet. For chronic fatigue, liver is the answer—calf liver, ideally, half a pound to a pound a day.

That's it for questions today. We'll see you again in a week. And as always, think happens. Remember, you are already healthy.
