Rethinking Our Immune System

2011-07-22T10:22:00.000-05:00

By: Dr. David Jernigan

Science has revealed that there are over 1.5 quadrillion bacteria living harmoniously in the healthy human body. ScienceDaily (June 5, 2008) Due to this new discovery, it has become apparent to scientists that the immune system is not the primary way in which the healthy body keeps the thousand-plus different types of bacteria in your body from causing disease.

Martin Blaser of New York University has been studying the number of types of bacteria in skin. Blaser estimates that there are over 500 different types of living in healthy human skin.

Researchers reporting on the human microbiome (a fancy term for the bacteria and microbes that virtually are the human body) estimate that healthy people who have generationally never received antibiotics may have over 1000 different types of bacteria in their intestines. Preliminary research has resulted in staggering cures of degenerative illnesses when these thousand strains were introduced into sick individuals.

With only an estimated 150 trillion cells in the human body, bacteria outnumber cells over 10 to 1.

So does your immune system really work like the simplistic Pac-man game, with your macrophages and phagocytes (Specialized White Blood Cells) going around gobbling up all the “bad bacteria”?

When we take “immune system boosters” what are we really boosting?

How can many people be highly positive for infectious bacteria, like Borrelia burgdorferi, the primary bacteria thought to cause Lyme disease, and also test very highly positive for the presence of several of the coinfections often seen in this same illness, yet never have any symptoms, year after year?

In order to answer these questions we must first answer what exactly regulates and controls what we call optimum health.

Many people think that if they are symptom-free most of their life, that they are healthy. This thought process is obviously erroneous, because of the pandemic of cancer arising in the world population, often in people who report virtually never having symptoms of any kind, never having abnormal blood tests on physical exams, and rarely missing a day of work.

Being symptom-free is not the same as having optimum health.

It must be understood that optimum health is a very rare condition in the world population. Optimum health is that point where the body, mind, and spirit can adapt instantly and correctly at all times to any change in the organism’s internal and external environment.

Optimum health by this definition describes the ideal condition of what is called bio-coherence.

It is the unifying force of coherence, within the incredible complexity of bio-communication and bio-regulation, which enables the body to adapt to every challenge to optimum health.

The immune system plays a small role, comparatively speaking, to the forces of bio-coherence regulating the vast populations of microbes.

One might say, “But the bacteria responsible for serious illnesses such as Lyme disease, Diptheria, and Strep, just to name a few, are not part of the healthy human microbiome.” While this statement is true the reality is that even these “infections” seem to merge into the total microbiome of the healthy body, once bio-coherence is re-established.

It could be accurately stated that every illness is the result of the breakdown of bio-coherence.

The restoration of optimum health is not the result of killing all the “bad” bacteria and microbes, but is at best in the conventional medical model of antibiotics, the result of the suppression of bacterial populations and the resultant polymorphism of the bacteria to less pathological microbial shapes as the bacteria morph to escape the treatments.

As the bacteria shape-shift to less virulent forms under the pressure of antibiotics, bio-coherence can often keep them from re-emerging in their more virulent form.

It is this author’s opinion, that the use of antibiotics does more harm than good in the short run and in the long run. Anti=against, biotic=life is pretty clearly stating antibiotics effects on the 1.5 quadrillion bacteria that make up the healthy human body.

With antibiotics one may win the battle, but lose the war, as the bacterial infection is defeated, yet at the cost of over 400 different strains of friendly bacteria being also destroyed, leading to profound disturbances of the microbiome and ultimately leading to the loss of bio-coherence resulting in degenerative diseases, and premature death.

Armed with the knowledge of the microbiome it is now thought that the ultimate and far superior aspect of immune regulation is the microbe regulating aspects of the bio-coherent energetic fields that naturally regulate all microbes and all the systems of the body.

In an essentially whole person, who has not been damaged beyond repair through medical interventions and injury, modalities that strive to restore bio-coherence on all levels of the body, mind, and spirit is the medicine of the future.

It is suggested that bio-coherence even plays a large role in epigenetics, the expression of our genetic blueprint.

Clinical studies reveal promising results using BioCoherence Therapy (BCT) a newly discovered health care technology developed by the author and Dr. David J. Jowdy at the Hansa Center for Optimum Health in Wichita, Kansas.

It appears through the use of BCT techniques that true bio-coherence can be largely achieved resulting in often-dramatic improvements in conditions affecting every system of the body.

After BCT treatments many patients report almost instantaneous improvements in pain, cognition, flexibility, strength, tremors, musculoskeletal alignment, emotional stability, and environmental sensitivities have often been observed. Patients often report sensations of increased sense of wellbeing.

The author theorizes that these improvements are the result of the gradual and possibly rapid restoration of optimum function and integrity of every regulatory system.

BCT seems to provide for the sick individual; the stimulus for the optimum bio-coherence that is found in the healthy individual who tests positive for potentially harmful microbial infectious disease.

The Next Generation of Wellness - BioCoherence Therapy

2011-06-13T09:17:00.000-05:00

By: Dr. David Jernigan

BioCoherence Therapy (BCT) represents an entirely new advancement in what we perceive needs to happen in the human body in order to facilitate healing and ultimately enable optimum health on all levels.

Bio, means “Life.” Coherence is that point when every cell, tissue, every biochemical, and indeed every aspect of the body, mind, and spirit are functioning at optimum integrity
and the bio-communication pathways are completely open.

In all sensitive testing, whether kinesiology-based, computerized meridian testing (EDS), or other methods outside of blood tests, the primary objective is to identify the electromagnetic frequency of the pathology, whether it is an organ/tissue disturbance, microbe, allergy, toxin, or any other category of disturbance. Then, using sensitive testing, to identify the inverse or corrective treatment, remedy, or modality to correct the interference.
The assumption for the last five decades has been that when the corrective remedies to these problems is given to the patient, the body would be able to take over and the illness would resolve. This premise seems to be correct since many people are greatly helped by this philosophy.

Our recent discovery of what we are calling BioCoherence Therapy, is based upon an advanced frequency-sequence utilizing BioResonance Scanning, a super-sensitive, frequency-sequencing type of testing.

BCT doesn’t do away with all of the sensitive testing utilized prior to this discovery; it advances the science. The amazing thing about BCT is the discovery that we can sequence a frequency test that seeks to establish coherence on all levels, instead of the “seek-and-destroy” nature of other methods of testing and treatment.

The surprising finding is that when coherence is achieved it also addresses all of the issues in the body, such as the microbes, biochemistry, emotions, mental issues, allergies, etc.

After years of using some of the top testing methods, doctors have gotten somewhat good at understanding what can be expected in regard to results. BioCoherence Therapy far exceeds all expectations in the rapidity of results and long-term improvement in symptoms.

Coherence of the mind would be perfect recall and a clear, sharp mind. Coherence in the body means one can adapt instantly and correctly to any change in internal and external environment. This would be optimum health.

The assumption, historically speaking, was that if we gave the body the energetic information and building blocks, in the form of remedies, Rife-frequencies, medicines, nutrition, and such, that the body would be able to achieve a measure of coherence and eventually take over so that no more treatments would be necessary.

In a relatively healthy person, this assumption seems to be somewhat correct, although even in the resolution of symptoms and their causes, one has to understand that true coherence is not just the absence of symptoms. In all of these sensitive tests the doctor is only as good as their best “questions” with which they can test the patient’s body.

It must be understood that, as doctors, we only get the answers to the “questions” we use to test the patient. An example of this might be if we test to find out what remedy would best restore the integrity and function of a dysfunctional liver, the resulting remedy found to correct liver function may actually cause a problem in another part of the body. Here we see that while the remedy is great for the liver, the “question” was not ultimately a very good question since you corrected one problem but caused another.

This type of testing is done all the time. Some patients come in with 65-70 different bottles of natural supplements from doctors who don’t know how to streamline their tests. Any disturbance their tests can find they frequency match to a medicine.

BioCoherence Therapy may be the most advanced form of healing found to date. Every aspect of the human condition is addressed with this form of testing and subsequent treatment with compounded remedies. Near miraculous results have been experienced by many patients who had not improved with any form of conventional or natural treatment.

In summary, BioCoherence Therapy is a specific technique using sequenced-frequencies to challenge all the bio-information systems of the body, which is frequency-matched to complex homeopathic and/or botanical formulations. Once the resulting remedy is compounded and taken by the patient, every system in the body is brought to optimum coherence and every standard testing method used to cross-confirm that the correction is verifiable and real, prove its effectiveness.

Olympics or Bust!

2011-05-31T13:55:00.000-05:00

By: Dr. Jernigan

(A good read for any parent who dreams of a college athletic scholarship for their child.)

The tall, lanky, thirteen year old girl lay on her back on the treatment table for a mandatory school Sports Physical. “She’s a really gifted swimmer!” Her mother proudly informed me.

Her large, flipper-sized feet splayed unevenly, and poor posture foretold of muscular imbalances to my trained eye.

Like so many other teenagers with dreams of someday going to the Olympics, this girl was just a good athlete, desiring to become great. Like so many other athletes I had treated, almost every electrical circuit in her body was blown!

This was manifested by how every major muscle was weak when tested individually. She was amazed, since she thought, like her parents and coach, that she was the best because of her strength! All she really had was a perfectly shaped body for her sport and good technique.

Because she was generally able to win most of her local swimming competitions, she was complacently unaware of how every major muscle was only working at about 40% of maximum integrity because of the circuit problems in her body. It was easy for her to be a big fish in the small pond of her athletic world of high school competitions. However, forty percent muscular integrity would not get her much farther than high school!

“It isn’t a problem with not working out enough.” I assured them.

It is because of circuit problems in the body. “One can work out, and even make strength gains, but it will still be only about 40% of what should be available. “Imagine how fast you would go having 60% more integrity in the muscles!” “I can help get you there and keep you there so that you can have the best chance of reaching your goals.” I said.

It seems that most people are unaware that the body is set up much like your house, on dedicated circuits. If you go to the circuit breaker box in your house you will see that there are many different circuits dedicated to the various areas of your house. The body is set up much in the same manner.

In a circuit in the body you will find the following all sharing a somewhat dedicated electromagnetic circuit… one organ, gland, certain teeth, certain nerves, joints, and certain muscles. For example, the front two teeth on the upper and lower jaw sit on the same circuit as the kidneys, ears, pineal gland, and the psoas muscles on both sides of the body.

The key to understanding how important these connections are is that any problem anywhere in the circuit will cause everything on that circuit to “blow”, much like overloading the electrical circuit in your house. Everything on the circuit will suffer the same fate! So in the above example, if the tooth has a bad infection or is being affected by a large silver amalgam filling, or even a bad root canal, it will “blow” the energetic integrity of everything else on that circuit, and the psoas muscles will reflect the problem as a loss of strength.

Athletes depend upon their muscles to ultimately perform and excel in their sport. Few people understand that it is not enough to simply exercise a lot. Not if you want to become a truly world-class athlete.

In the same manner that we have used this new technology to virtually instantly “cure” people who have been paralyzed and others who have not been able to walk for six months, we have been able to turn good athletes, such as this teenager, into Nationally-ranked athletes who eventually qualified to compete to go to the Olympics!

Once the circuits of the body have been “turned on” again, one can reach their maximum potential in all aspects of life. The only way to do this is through properly where the problems lie in the circuit and correcting them.

When asked “How can you get these amazing results so quickly?” I answer with, “When the circuit in your house blows, how long does it take the lights to come back on once you have flipped the switch back on?” “Instantly!”

Circuit Healing is a relatively new, but scientifically sound healing concept that could turn your Olympic-hopeful to an Olympic-bound athlete!

My "The Baglady's Guide" Story

2011-05-25T10:32:00.002-05:00

By: Dr Jernigan

My "The Bagladys Guide" Story

My body complained as I sat on the hard, wooden bleachers waiting for my daughter’s basketball game to start. The gym was cold from the doors being constantly open with parents and students coming in to watch the game. All that began to fade for me as I was drawn deeper into the new book I was reading.

I must have appeared quite odd, a bespectacled, bearded, very tall man reading a book at a basketball game. I would feel eyes on me and glance up every now and then and catch people looking at me or whispering in my direction. I didn’t care, the game hadn’t started yet anyway, not to mention the fact that it was going to be a long night since several other teams were going to be playing that night as well, so I settled in as best I could on that hardwood bleacher and dug into the book.

What book? I had to chuckle to myself as I sat there knowing people were straining to see what the title was…The Baglady’s Guide to Elegant Living by Dina Dove.

I set the book down on the bleacher beside me to watch the game. At half-time a woman next to me commented, “That is an odd book for you to be reading!” I loved that it caught her attention and stimulated this opportunity to share the wisdom in these pages.

“It’s a great book!” I replied. “It is filled with so much wisdom on how to live life more successfully and more joyfully.” “Oh,” She replied, “I will have to buy a copy. Where can you buy them?” Barnes and Noble have them I assured her.

The game started up again for the second half. I smiled to myself, feeling quite proud of the success of my plot to get others interested in reading the book. In some odd way I felt like I was doling out wisdom in the tradition of the wise, old, Baglady in the book.

As a teenager I used to always ask elderly people what they had learned in life that could help me. I remember being disappointed that none of the elderly people thought they had gained any wisdom they could pass on to me. I would have given anything to have been able to sit on the park bench next to this elegant Baglady and have her reach into her purse for some of the many note cards of wisdom therein and have her take me under her wing!

Haven’t you ever wished you had some part of the past to do over again? Don’t you wish you could ask someone older and wiser for advice? I definitely have!

And that is why I would recommend every man and woman read The Baglady’s Guide to Elegant Living!

You won’t regret it.

Treating Post-Lyme Syndrome

2011-04-26T11:11:00.000-05:00

By: Dr. David Jernigan

Post-Lyme Syndrome is a clinical condition where symptoms remain beyond the point where the bacteria can be detected. The damage to the body that was caused by the infections persists even though your doctor feels the medicines have killed all the bacteria.

Post-Lyme Syndrome is the most obvious problem in the idea that antibiotics are the answer to Lyme disease. It is also the problem with taking natural supplements that are touted to kill the bacteria. Killing the bacteria and even doing extensive detoxification treatments does nothing to actually repair the damaged tissues that are the source of your symptoms.

Of course eliminating the damaging bacteria and toxins is necessary. However, very often the damaged tissues of the body cannot just go back to normal through the body’s natural healing mechanisms.

Chronic Post-Lyme symptoms indicate that you have most likely dealt with the first phase of the healing process by resolving the infections. Now you must enter the second phase of healing…the repair, restore, and regenerative phase of healing.

Lyme Disease is similar to another of history’s terrifying neurological infections, Polio, whose allopathic treatment left many to suffer with Post-Polio Syndrome. Both syndromes leave the people who have been declared “cured” in spite of slowly-progressing condition marked by short to long periods of stability.

The severity of PLS depends on the degree of the weakness and disability an individual had leading up to the infection, as well as the residual weakness and disability left behind by the infection and allopathic treatments.

People originally hit hard by Lyme Disease and treated with antibiotics often are left with severe residual physical, mental, and emotional problems, and they may develop more severe cases of PLS with the recurrence of many symptoms and more periods of profound fatigue.

The prevalent thought seems to be that the human body is unintelligent and needs our help to fix its problems. The reality is that the world’s most astute and celebrated physicians cannot fix even the simplest paper cut, much less a serious illness like Lyme Disease. The human body is not dumb. The body needs the physician to see his role as a being a facilitator in the process of restoring the body’s optimal design so that homeostasis can be reestablished and true health can follow.

The following is a list of what would normally need to be addressed in a Post-Lyme Syndrome in order to restore optimum health in a two to three week intensive restoration program of care.

· Restore the structural integrity of the spine, pelvis, and musculo-skeletal aspects of the extremities.

· Reset the visceral circuitry to 100% integrity to enable the restoration of muscle tone and strength and optimize the restorative and regenerative processes within each organ and gland.

· Adjust all biochemistry, such as hormones, enzymes, amino-acids, neurotransmitters.

· Eliminate food allergies and source-reduce toxins/allergens from personal care products.

· Erase the cellular memory of trauma (physical, emotional, and chemical traumas) that were causing fascia restrictions and myofascial interferences.

· Realign the liquid-crystalline matrix with NeuroPhotonic Therapy (NPT) thereby restoring ability of the body to properly move light through the body for intercellular communication and bioregulation of epigenetics.

· Brainwave balancing addressed via NPT with Alpha, Theta, and Delta wave stimulation.

· Counseling and emotional clearing techniques to relieve emotional interferences.

· Correct bowel movement (peristalsis) by rebound activation of the Ilio-cecal valve and Valve of Houston.

· Facilitate the body’s ability to control microbial (bacteria, virus, fungus, parasitic) overgrowth through bioinformatics applications of frequency-matched botanical and homeopathic remedies.

· Detoxify microbial, exogenous, and metabolic waste, toxins, and neurotoxins.

· Restore the skin’s ability to perspire and eliminate properly (the largest organ of elimination).

· Clear miasmatic/inherited predispositions as well as drug-induced miasmatic problems.

· Correct neurological disorganization between the left and right hemispheres of the brain.

· Work to reset the thermostat of the body and improve core-temperature in order to restore sleep patterns, overall function, and increase sense of wellbeing.

· Stimulate regenerative/strengthening impulses, as well as improved overall crystalline-matrix integrity with the LUX therapy.

· Improve the lymphatic system’s ability to flow correctly

· Balance the body’s electromagnetic and photonic fields around and permiating the body, which help to regulate and restore tissue function.

· Provide the primary nutritional/homeopathic building blocks needed to address the primary regenerative processes of the body.

Flying with Eagles

2011-04-05T09:51:00.002-05:00

By Dr. David Jernigan

Have you ever been to an invigorating movie that left you feeling like you could conquer the world? You know, it is that feeling you get when you hear the Rocky movie theme song. Whatever the movie you walked away from feeling invincible and feeling like you can rise above your daily grind to be more than you have been, you know the feeling I am talking about.

The feelings are similar to having spent time with individuals, possibly at a business conference, religious event, or networking event, who we look up to as “Eagles.”

Eagles inspire us to reach for more in our lives. Motivational speakers often teach that you should find an Eagle and emulate their successful actions.

All of this is true to a point. The point I am making is that in order to truly reap the benefit of “flying with Eagles” you must do the work necessary before, during, and after meeting them.

The warm fuzzies you get from being around Eagles don’t help you to get anywhere without you putting in the work in the form of sustained action.

Knowledge taught by Eagles has been transformed as the Eagles digested the knowledge and applied it in their own life and turned the knowledge into wisdom. You can gain much of their knowledge and the Eagle is very wise, however they cannot give you wisdom. They can only give you knowledge, which you must digest through taking definite actions on a moment-by-moment basis until you transform it into your own wisdom.

Most Eagles I know have told me that people think they are an “Overnight success.” These Eagles laughingly say, “Yeah, an overnight success after ten years!”

Knowledge without action is dead. Faith without love is dead.

The root origin of the word “Inspiration” is to be “In Spirit.” To be “Motivated” is originally meaning to be stirred to action! So while you are feeling the spirit of an Eagle’s vibration, knowledge, and motivation… make the decision to break free from being an “Eagle-junkie,” feeding off of their energy, only to fade back to your status quo!

Fly… be free! Spread your wings. Watch, and learn, and feel the inspiration and motivation that Eagles provide, and put actions into every moment of every day, whether it is applied to business, health, relationships, or spirituality.

In time you will find that you are not just admiring Eagles, you have become one!

The Miraculous Diagnostic Machine Part 3 - Final

2011-03-29T13:40:00.001-05:00

By Dr Jernigan

(Read parts 1 and 2 below first)

How do I know healing doesn’t require the Miraculous Medical Diagnostic Machine?

Because of all the successes we get to see that ultimately have little to do with the label or name we call an illness.

American Biological Medicine, like we teach and practice at the Hansa Center, is the most scientific and comprehensive philosophy of healing.

Health from a bottle is a myth!

The world’s most astute and celebrated physicians cannot heal even the most simple paper cut, much less serious illnesses like cancer, heart disease, and depression.

Neither can I or anyone else at the Hansa Center.

So if we truly cannot heal anyone then our job and specialty must be to identify anything interfering with the body’s own ability to heal, facilitate the restoration of the functional integrity within the body, mind, and spirit, and provide the building blocks and bio-information the body needs so all the things that the Miraculous Medical Diagnostic Machine found will naturally be corrected.

If one continues to do the same things, one will continue to get the same results!

If everything you have done up to this point has created your present reality, then if you want a new reality, one with optimum health, then you must change everything you are doing.

Optimum Health is the product of living with the highest degree of functional integrity within the body, mind, and spirit. Optimum health is also the ability of the body, mind, and spirit to adapt instantly and correctly to any changes in its internal and external environment.

Healing is the product of guiding and facilitating the restoration of integrity of the body, mind, and spirit through thoughtfully applied physical treatments, natural medicines, therapies, and through teaching and coaching one back to optimum health.

We encourage you to tell everyone you know that is healthy and wants to stay healthy, and those who are sick to come experience American Biological Medicine at the Hansa Center for Optimum Health.

While we cannot guarantee results, the pure philosophy of healing and broad range of natural science and healing techniques that we can bring to bear on a case insure that there is no type of illness and no one who will not benefit from American Biological Medicine.

The Miraculous Diagnostic Machine Part 2

2011-03-23T15:39:00.000-05:00

By Dr. David Jernigan

(If you haven't read the first post, scroll below and do so before continuing.)

As I left off last time:
I can’t tell you how many people have come for treatment that ultimately came in saying ........
“Well doctor, I poured the pills down the toilet today!” “What pills?” I ask. “Oh, I wasn’t going to continue living if you couldn’t fix me, so thank you for helping me!”

While knowing what going wrong in a person’s body is useful, it is my experience that rarely can a person’s illness be boiled down to one cause and rarer still boiled down to one magic prescription.

The “Miraculous Medical Diagnostic Machine” doesn’t really exist, although the myriad of blood tests and MRI’s and fancy diagnostics obviously do exist. These tests and the volumes of medical research describing what goes wrong during every illness lead one to feel quite convinced that mainstream conventional pharmaceuticals, surgery, and radiation treatments are the logical way to get the quality of life back that we seek.

It seems that acceptance of a broken system has become the norm in the world!

Women look at every other woman having severe PMS and think this dysfunction is now the norm, when it is actually a sign of dysfunction.

The millions of people on antidepressants, anti-anxiety medications, insomnia and cholesterol-lowering medicines seem to also think they are so blessed to have pharmaceutical drugs that they will need to take for the rest of their life.

Like sheep to the slaughter, much of our country has accepted that depending upon symptom-masking drugs is acceptable and is now the norm. It is viewed much like gray hair and wrinkles…it is inevitable that we all will need some sort of drugs as we age.

This is a lie that I feel must be revealed.

When we help people at the Hansa Center our goal is to facilitate true healing through facilitating the restoration of optimum health and integrity within every aspect of the body, mind, and spirit.

The ultimate goal is NOT to switch a person from a lifetime of pharmaceuticals to a lifetime of natural supplements.

Our goal is to get a person to the point, as quickly as possibe, where they don’t need to take anything natural or otherwise in order to live a joy-filled, healthy life.

A secondary goal, but equally important is for us to teach our patients is how not to get in trouble in the first place!

If you have to keep taking something (natural or pharmaceutical) in order to feel good or be symptom-free, then it is not fixing anything! It is masking the symptom only, and it might as well be magic potions, since if you take the pills away the reality is evident. Not only do you still have your original problem, but it has grown worse underneath the pills!

The idea that the human condition can be broken down into biochemical markers and genetic flaws on blood tests is flawed and only works to support a flawed system of dependency upon drugs and “Cookbook Doctoring.”

How do I know healing doesn’t require the Miraculous Medical Diagnostic Machine?

Come back and find out......3rd and final part of this article next time!

Miraculous Diagnostic Machine

2011-03-15T12:14:00.001-05:00

By Dr. Jernigan

What if a medical diagnostic machine was created that would replace every single lab test and every type of other diagnostic device? What if it could generate reports that could tell you with incredible accuracy every biochemical malfunction? Every microbe would be identified and every toxin revealed using this new machine.

The diagnostic machine would then print out reams of data revealing the minutia of imbalances and items which are outside the statistical norm of the average American. With this machine we could finally see all the hundreds of thousands of problems that need fixing in a person who is sick.

I am a great fan of the television sitcom, “House, M.D.” I know several doctors who also like to watch it. The program is fun to watch as a doctor because it allows us to flex our own diagnostic mind to try and solve the case before Dr. House. However as I watched more episodes a worrisome pattern began to emerge that I couldn’t quite put my finger on for awhile. You know what I mean, that nagging feeling you get when something just isn’t matching up to what you hold to be true.

Now, you may be wondering why I am shifting topics from our “fantastic new diagnostic machine” to House, M.D., however it will be clear shortly.

The thing that eventually just didn’t work for me about House is that it seems that the program celebrates and is selling the idea that with more and more diagnostic tests the patient’s problem can almost always be boiled down to one specific thing. Since the program is an hour long then once that one problem is identified they can deliver the perfect medicine for that problem and patient is gloriously well.

For the past fourteen years, the Hansa Center has been treating some of the toughest cases from all over the world, much like the patient’s on the T.V. show House, who for those of you who don’t watch it, treats with a team of doctors, only the most baffling cases in a hospital.

Approximately 90% of our patients have already seen over 20 different doctors and specialists, both natural and conventional medicine, many coming from our country’s most prestigious hospitals, before coming to see us.

We “rock and roll” with these cases and enjoy great success at improving these cases which no doctor previously could even budge. So, I feel very qualified to question the direction that medicine is taking us.

Do we win every case? No, however we have been able to improve the quality of life and often dramatically reduce the severity of a person’s symptoms, something that usually twenty or more other doctors had not been able to perform.

At the Hansa Center we work with the goal of restoring a person back to perfection. We want a person to be able to get out of the wheelchair, but if all we achieve is better bladder control, the ability to hold up their own head without having to have it strapped to the wheelchair, to feed themselves, then to that patient our treatments were a great success and well worth it since most other efforts were simply to slow down the gradual worsening of their condition!

I can’t tell you how many people have come for treatment that ultimately came in saying ...

How to Beat Any Bacterial Infection: The Human Rife Machine

2011-03-08T10:20:00.000-06:00

By Dr. David Jernigan

Any doctor who does any type of sensitive testing, such as Direct Resonance-type muscle testing or Electro-Dermal testing, knows that only the most active/problematic bacteria and body issues will be detectable on these tests.

As a matter of fact, even in conventional lab testing we can only test for 0.4% of the known bacteria in the human body. Which means we don’t have a blood test for 99.6% of the various types of bacteria in the healthy human body.

It is interesting that according to research the healthy human body has between 1.5-2 QUADRILLION bacteria and approximately 1000 different types of bacteria at all times! Let’s put that into perspective. There are only 100 trillion cells in the human body. There are 1500 trillions in 1.5 quadrillion. That is a lot of bacteria!

With over a thousand different types of bacteria living synergistically in an optimally healthy body, then health is definitely not determined by the presence or absence of bacteria!

Yet from the suffering and diseases of so many generations it would seem that bacteria are definitely a cause of disease, right? Bacterial overgrowth can certainly cause symptoms of disease, but often the direct killing of bacteria doesn’t produce health. If this is the case then bacterial overgrowth is also a symptom.

If bacterial overgrowth is a symptom and not the cause then just what is the cause and how can the cause be addressed?

Let’s get back to doctors that do sensitive testing. For those of you that don’t understand Direct Resonance muscle testing or Electro-Dermal testing, these are tests that a trained doctor can perform to help identify the presence and electromagnetic frequency of pathologies, such as specific types of bacterial overgrowth. These tests are used when all conventional blood tests have found no significant issues and yet the patient is obviously sick. These tests can often detect the primary problems in the body and help eliminate some of the guesswork in the treatment room.

Although the doctors who do these tests can scan for hundreds of types of bacteria, they will usually only find a few primary types of bacteria that are overpopulating in any given patient.

So the question remains… If there are always 1000 types of bacteria in the body, then why don’t doctors doing these incredibly sensitive tests detect all 1000 types of bacteria? The answer is not so obvious. The human body, when in optimum functional integrity, produces electromagnetic fields that contain complex, subtle EM frequencies that suppress bacterial and microbial overgrowth.

The muscle testing (Applied and Clinical Kinesiology) and Electro-dermal testing only identify the types of bacteria that have opportunistically thrived when the EM frequencies, which would normally be transmitted by the healthy body, have been blocked due to various stressors affecting the body.

Doctors who are doing these tests will detect problem frequencies (in this case, bacteria) in the electromagnetic fields of the patient’s body, and through the sensitive testing will identify the inverse frequency, in the way of a remedy. The remedy doesn’t kill the bacteria directly as in conventional antibiotics, but provides the missing biological frequencies that normally prevent the bacteria from reaching a disease state as well as effectively canceling out the problem frequency. The bacteria then die essentially from what I call the “Rife-Effect.”

In summary, we are a walking, talking microbial soup. Bacteria outnumber human cells 10-20 to 1. Even sensitive tests will only detect the frequencies of the types of bacteria that have overpopulated, due to a breakdown in the normal electro-magnetic frequencies of the body that keep the 1000 different types of bacteria found in the body in check. A well-selected remedy works because it restores the body’s ability to produce the missing bacteriostatic (bacterial growth-inhibiting) frequencies.

This healing philosophy is diametrically opposed to conventional and natural antibiotic treatment philosophies, which seek to kill the bacteria based upon what will kill bacteria in a laboratory Petri dish. This also explains why the formulas I have developed confound herbologists who strive to determine why they work, since none of the herbs in formulas have any direct anti-bacterial effect.

Treat the bugs and more bugs will follow. Treat the human condition and health will follow. Choose your healing philosophy carefully. It is a myth that you will be well when your doctor can figure out how to kill all of the bacteria.

Obviously conventional antibiotics can suppress bacterial overgrowth to a certain degree, at the expense of damaging other systems of the body, but true lasting health will not be yours to enjoy until your body can control the bacteria for itself.

Season "For Giving" or Season of "Forgiving"???

2011-02-15T11:56:00.002-06:00

By: Dr. David Jernigan

{A reposted Oldie, but Goodie!}

This is an extra and special additional post from
Dr. David Jernigan and The Hansa Center wishing everyone Happy Holidays!

(Although a bit long, very much worth reading to the very end.)

The night is excessively cold. The thermometer hanging on the garage is registering a balmy 9° F. A blistering wind is whipping around the house, seeking cracks through which to create a draft in my house. The wind chill must be below zero. It’s a great night for some of my new Detox Cocoa as I finish my work day by answering my emails.

I have the television on in order for my brain to gradually step its way down from its busy pace of the day to the much slower pace of the silent emails. I am watching one of my favorite Travel Channel programs, “Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations” and suffering through the myriad of commercials.

The show is refreshing to me for what is likely the very reason some other people may not like it at all. In a world of homogenously, disingenuously “nice” cookie cutter television personalities, Anthony Bourdain is raw and real.

He exemplifies and personifies the ideal of “high personal integrity.”

If he wants a cigarette, he smokes one. He says whatever he wants, but respects people for the most part, and is true to himself.

If he eats something in a foreign country that he doesn’t like, he tells you so, not like some of the other travel/food celebrities who predictably always say “I just love this! It’s so great! You just must experience how awesome the food is here!”

One comes away with the idea that the restaurant paid them to endorse their eatery. Just once, I’d love to hear these people say, “You know, this just isn’t that good.”

But I digress.

The point I wanted to make was that while waiting for the commercials to end and checking my emails, the onslaught of Christmas-related commercials droned on and on, until a phrase caught my ear, “It’s the season for giving…”

Something about the way it was said though made me think they said, “It’s the season for forgiving…”

I glanced up over the top of my laptop at the TV and realized my mistake – just another ad designed to sell you something that would likely be broken by next Christmas.

I sat in deep thought about the idea of a Season of Forgiving and wondered how many people thought, as I did for most of my life, that forgiving was that thing your Mother always had you do when you did something to one of your siblings, and always was marked by “Say it like you mean it!”

Saying we are sorry is fine, as is saying it like we mean it; however, I have found that it is just the thinnest crust of what forgiveness really entails.

One of our highest human achievements in life is attained by reaching what is known as “Perfect Love.”

My book entitled, Everyday Miracles by God’s Design discusses in great detail how science has discovered that we are indeed beings of light, and it relates enlightened ways to attain our highest level of development as humans. In my book, I tell of how important the heart is in creating health and realizing an abundant and happy life.

The heart is now known, with each beat, to imprint the command information to the trillions of DNA in your body through “laser-like emissions of light!” What we think of as matter, such as tissue, bone, organs, glands are really just a condensation of light energy. We are more fiber-optic than we are electrical and chemical!

Have you ever experienced a situation where you were in such a good mood that nothing anybody said could upset you?

This is what we should feel like all the time.

In our highest spiritual maturity, we should be the embodiment and personification of Divine Love! In this existence, we love without respect to whether or not anyone deserves our love. You are allowing unrestricted light and love to shine outward to the entire world and into every situation.

With this attitude you never know who you are healing of some major problem when you are just walking down the street, holding yourself in perfect love! The down side of this revelation is that you also never know who you are contributing to negatively when you are walking down the street, if you are holding yourself in any negative emotion and unforgiveness! And yes, science has already verified this concept.

Our own negative emotions emit light frequencies that can aggravate the body of another person. “The body is wonderfully and mysteriously made.”

The U.S. Army even did a study where they can take a sample of your live DNA and watch it under electron microscope in another room.

For research purposes they will call into your room and tell you to think of something bad, negative, or get angry. Instantly, as they watch, the double helix of your DNA, like a ladder that has been twisted, will twist even tighter, getting shorter, and various codons will start turning off, unique to the type of negative emotion you are feeling!

The researchers will then call you and have you think of being joyful, thankful, and loving. Instantly your DNA strand unwinds to its optimum twist and all of the codons turn on perfectly!

By the way, the room in which they observed your strands of DNA in this study was 200 miles away from your body!

Your genetic blueprint, the illnesses you are experiencing, the messed up hormones and neurotransmitters, are all following the instructions of your thoughts and emotions as laser-like light beams of commands are sent to the DNA.

What does all this have to do with forgiveness, you might ask?

When we have unforgiveness (resentment, irritability or by whatever other name) it demonstrates that we are withholding love. This is like taking poison, hoping someone else will suffer! Your DNA is creating the most optimum YOU only when you are operating from perfect love.

One of the greatest lessonsI have learned in my life is that no one can make me anything!

No one can make me mad.

No one can make me have self-esteem.

No one can bum me out.

I am responsible for my own reactions, and I choose to stay in a position of complete peace and love, and complete and utter trust in God's plan, in spite of any life circumstance!

A close second to this is another favorite realization along my journey toward greater spiritual maturity:

“That which I greatly don’t want (fear) I draw to me faster, and that which I greatly desire (love) I also draw to me faster.”

So in other words, in the context of this topic, that which I have great unforgiveness about draws more reasons and more power to that which I will not forgive…and the disturbances in the expression of my DNA create more illness!

“To err is human, to forgive Divine,” the saying goes. It is always the Season of Forgiving.

When we forgive, it means we no longer hold back our love, but we release the person/s from any debt.

As we send out only light and love to all the world, our light will reflect off of everyone and everything and come back at you as the same, light and love, warmth and favor!

A song comes to mind, “Tis the season to be forgiving falalalalalalalala, don we now our light apparel falalalalalalala!”

This Christmas, do yourself a huge favor, save yourself from certain poisoning, and forgive all who have hurt you or let you down. In all your loving, be certain to love yourself completely in the same way!

With all my light and love,
David A. Jernigan

Functionally Dysfunctional Boxes

2011-01-26T10:57:00.001-06:00

By: Dr. David Jernigan
(re-published from earlier posts, back by popular demand)

In my last blog post called "The Aquarium Shark" I spoke of how our comfort zone is our box within which we view the world and live. I want to expand upon this theme.

I have heard many people tell me that if the life they are living is supposed to be their “Comfort Zone” there is nothing comfortable about it.

Life can be quite uncomfortable and miserable within our boxes. As uncomfortable as life may be, it must be understood that we are playing the game of life following the rules we agreed to use. Rules to the game of life seem to line the inside boundaries of each of our boxes.

Once we understand how we keep getting what it is that we are getting, either comfortable or uncomfortable we can begin to take more control by opening up to redefining our rules.

For instance, a rule I have heard many people say that the word “Grace” from the Bible is defined as “Undeserved favor from Divine Source.” Remember that our rules define the boundaries of our box. So from this definition of grace we see the viewpoint that grace is a PASSIVE event like God “throwing us a bone every now and then.”

I was shocked the first time I realized that all of the reference books say that the true definition of the word “Grace” is that it is a ACTIVE utilization of Divine light and love!

The true definition of grace is, “The purposeful allowing and influence of Divine light and love working in and through your heart and its reflection in the world around you.”

Can you see how empowering this true definition can be in your expansion of your box?

Can you see also how limiting it can be if you have been living within your box thinking that grace is a passive thing?

I like to ask people who believe its passive “Does it kind of feel like God is stingy with his bones?”

Armed with the accurate definition of grace we can improve what it is that we are getting. As we ACTIVELY and PURPOSEFULLY send out Divine Light and Love from our hearts into the workplace, people, and events of our lives those rays of light and love bounce (reflection) off everyone and everything in our world and come back at us as what we would identify as FAVOR! Contrast this with praying earnestly for help and then wondering why help often doesn’t come, why you don’t get your bone.

We all must understand how we keep getting what we are getting in our Comfort Zone. Our boundaries of our boxes will not shift one inch until we really look at the rules we brought into it, consciously or subconsciously.

This is the value of going outside of your comfort zone. If we continue to seek answers from sources that also bought into the same rules, we will beat at the walls of our box to no avail. Sincerity is no guarantee of truth.

Question everything you think you know, especially those rules you feel you “definitely know!”

The strongest rules are often the most limiting.

Early Deaths at an All-Time High: The Thinning of the Human Herd?

2011-01-12T13:18:00.000-06:00

By Dr. David Jernigan

Every year approximately 1.5 million people are dying prematurely due to illness-related deaths. That adds up to 15 million men, women, and children every ten years. Imagine driving through New Mexico, West Virginia, Nebraska, Idaho, Maine, New Hampshire, Hawaii, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, Vermont, Wyoming and seeing no living human!

There is a Chinese saying that speaks of the balance of all things. When there are many grasshoppers there will be many frogs to eat them. With many frogs there will come many herons to eat them. To everything there is a season. In the wilds of Alaska the wolves are apex predators and help to keep the deer populations in healthy numbers, thinning the herd.

Mankind has no natural predators, so what is thinning our herd? What if mankind just continued to reproduce and reach unsustainable numbers on the planet? How many hospitals, policemen, prisons, and houses would we need if the population doubled in the next twenty years? How much grain, fruits and vegetables, fish and livestock would be necessary to feed a population of this size? The logistical nightmares of providing for the herd of mankind would be staggering.

In our livestock slaughterhouses we kill animals as ethically and painlessly as possible. We don’t torture them first and drag out their death. In the same thought process what if the human population were allowed to consume energetically dead foods and foods that are loaded with chemicals; and received medicines that didn’t really work to correct illness but only made it where the “human herd” could die more rapidly without feeling any symptoms.

If the “Powers that be” could thin the herd how could it be done with the least amount of suffering yet shorten the overall lifespan? What if the food market was flooded with 77,000 different chemicals that while ensuring beautiful and tasty foods that have a long shelf life, caused acceleration of cell aging and ultimately diseases like cancer?

What if the food supply were genetically modified to create beautiful vegetables and yet when eaten the genetic modifications would target selected individuals whose genes would be altered thereby limiting reproduction? What if laws were introduced that made it illegal to grow your own organic fruit and vegetables?
What the powers that be has set up elaborate tests and marketed medicines that only suppress the symptoms of every disease so that the herd inevitably died faster, yet ethically with minimal symptoms? What if this has been justified by the system for so long that those delivering these medicines to the herd feel completely justified by their overwhelming reams of research seeming to prove the system correct.

What if vaccines could be produced and made mandatory, by law, which once introduced into the herd, altered the genetic expression and damaged the reproductive ability of select segments of the herd so that only the fittest and most desired gene pools survived?

What if the water supply and toothpaste could be poisoned with a known neurotoxin, fluoride, which would create the psychological condition of apathy throughout the herd, so that although millions were sick and dying prematurely, no one would really care?

Of course this is not happening now, nor am I suggesting it should be done. It just makes one go “hmmm!” when viewed from the treatment room of doctors who are not part of the conventional system.

“Oh Doctor, you sound like a conspiracy theorist!” I can hear the inevitable comments, and I just want to scream, “Wake up!” Every single year over 992,000 people in the United States are dying from iatrogenic causes. Over 550,000 of the herd in the U.S. are dying from cancer every year! If this were the Iraq war or any other war and we lost 1.5 million soldiers a year we would be crazed and screaming for it to stop…and no one would be saying “conspiracy theory!”

Every minute of every day two people in the United States are diagnosed with cancer. Every minute one person dies from cancer. One in every three women and one in two men will get some form of cancer, according to the medical literature. So just in this one illness 33% of childbearing women in our country and 50% of men will die prematurely, either from the cancer or the ultimate damage from the treatments.

People, this is not just our lot in life… to suffer with what the World Health Organization calls the United States health care as one of the worst in the world. This terrible health is in spite of having the most doctors, the most healthcare technology, the most prescriptions used (an average of 12 symptom-focused prescriptions per person!).

Our children are coming down with what used to only be geriatric diseases! Couples either cannot conceive at all, or they have only one child after which they can’t seem to have anymore.

Please know that many of these things are indeed going on right now. The suffering is horrible and those who are suffering seem to be so glad to have drugs that suppress or mask the symptoms as the true cause of the illness goes unaddressed.

This is a call for doctors and people to break away from the herd and choose to really live and to truly be healed. Don’t give in to the marketing of energetically dead, genetically altered, and chemically poisoned foods. Save yourself and your offspring from all of it! Find local organic farmers. Find doctors in your area who practice only natural healing. Throw away your toxic personal care products and toxic cleaners and replace them with nontoxic products. Don’t trust the glitzy and highly technical scientific literature without asking if it is promoting true correction and not just suppression and fear of what might happen if you don’t submit to taking their treatments.

Encourage your doctors to break free and get trained in Biological Medicine and read more books that help you learn to take care of yourself naturally so that you never need serious interventions.

Vaccines are very good when they are pure and uncontaminated with up to 100 varieties of contaminating viruses, and things like HCG hormone, and the highly poisonous heavy metal, mercury. Plus we all have this inherent trust that everyone has our best interests at heart all the time.

The herd is dying at an alarming rate so those opposed to this will need to come up their own conclusions as to why this is happening.

The Alkaline Brain: Dietary Concerns in Lyme-Borreliosis

2010-12-14T13:19:00.001-06:00

By Dr. David Jernigan

Due to the recent discovery that people with Lyme disease universally suffer from hyperammonemia, the excessive accumulation of ammonia in the liver, jaws, heart, and brain, and in rare cases the entire body, certain dietary changes can help reduce the severity of the symptoms of Lyme disease.

Ammonia is very alkaline with a pH of 11.6. Many doctors have been taught that most sick people have acidic bodies (< 7.0 pH). The reality is not that simple. People may be predominantly acidic but may also be extremely alkaline in the areas of ammonia accumulation. This is why many people worsen when they are given dietary recommendations such as eating fresh fruits and vegetables, which work to alkalinize the body. Drinking alkalinized water would also tend to aggravate symptoms related to hyperammonemia.

While there are many people who have been helped by these alkaline diets and alkalinized water, it is likely that they did not have a significant accumulation of ammonia and therefore did not experience a worsening of their symptoms.

It appears that alkaline diets can aggravate the already over-alkaline, ammonia regions of their body: the brain, jaws, heart, and liver. The ammonia conditions must be cleared before addressing the more acidic regions of the body.

High protein foods such as grains and meat contain an amino-acid (the breakdown unit of protein) called L-arginine. L-arginine in foods and as a nutritional supplement should not be taken in cases of hyperammonemia. Research reveals that ammonia (NH3) + arginine + manganese = increased nitric oxide (NO) up to 53% in astrocytes (brain cells), leading to increased brain swelling. “Manganese in excess is neurotoxic and causes a CNS disorder that resembles Parkinson's disease (manganism). Manganese accumulates excessively in astrocytes, which renders these cells more vulnerable to its toxicity.”

When localized brain swelling increases due to ammonia, symptoms, which may be mistakenly called a Herxheimer reaction, increase dramatically as the brain energy metabolism becomes disrupted. The primary symptoms of profound fatigue and increased pain-sensitivity can escalate to critical.

Heart symptoms of all types can be improved by the clearing of ammonia and its source, the bacteria.

Armed with this knowledge, health care professionals would be wise to instigate a cycled, protein-poor diet for Lyme patients during treatment to minimize aggravations from arginine. A general guideline for cycling on and off the avoidance of arginine-rich foods might be two weeks of avoidance and one week back on protein foods to avoid problems due to depleting the body of protein.

While strict dietary limitations may not absolutely necessary for some individuals, it is a good recommendation for those people with severe brain toxicity and highly reactive symptoms to decrease their intake of arginine-rich foods.

Foods that are high in arginine, and therefore should be avoided until ammonia issues are resolved are carob, coconut, chocolate, dairy, gelatin, oats, meat of any kind, soybeans, walnuts, white flour, wheat, wheat germ, buckwheat, granola, oatmeal, dairy products (cottage cheese, ricotta, nonfat dry milk, skim yogurt), nuts (coconut, pecans, cashews, walnuts, almonds, Brazil nuts, hazel nuts, peanuts), seeds (pumpkin, sesame, sunflower), poultry (chicken and turkey light meat), wild game (pheasant, quail), seafood (halibut, lobster, salmon, shrimp, snails, tuna in water), chick peas)

Many people suffering with Lyme disease also have various viral issues as well, such as Human Herpes Virus-6, Epstein Barr Virus, and others. Arginine feeds viruses. The amino acid L-Lysine blocks arginine’s ability to feed viruses, so it will benefit everyone to boost the dietary intake of L-Lysine. If you must have meat, fish is the best choice. It is high in L-Lysine, which may be adequate for combating the effects of the arginine in the fish.

Lysine rich foods include legumes, eggs, lima beans, potatoes, and brewers yeast. You may also purchase L-Lysine as a nutritional supplement from a health food store.

Dietary changes can lessen the severity of virtually every symptom related to Lyme disease, however the source of the ammonia, the Borrelia, must be resolved, and the body’s ability to clear out the accumulated ammonia must be treated before dietary restrictions can be lifted.

Understanding Fevers

2010-12-07T14:48:00.001-06:00

By Dr. David Jernigan

The human race, when viewed over the last few hundred years, is moving away from the inflammatory diseases associated with high fevers toward the more cold illnesses, such as diabetes, cancer, and fibromyalgia. Today the average person will commonly run a “normal” body temperature between 95-97° F. Ideally children and adults should maintain a core temperature of 98.6° F or slightly higher. Incao, P. Lilipoh, Issue 24, 2001 It is interesting to see how what experts consider to be “normal” is changing every year as our population becomes sicker and sicker. I purchased a thermometer recently that listed the normal temperature range as 95.9 to 99.5° F. This company considers a temperature that is almost 3 degrees colder than the optimum 98.5 to be normal, when as will be discussed later a temperature this low should not be considered normal and is actually detrimental.

Fevers on the other hand are a very important mechanism in the developmental processes of growing children. Not only does the fever help destroy the microbes, but it trains the body to regulate the warmth organization of the body in adult life. Fevers in childhood also help to establish a stronger constitution.

Most people never check their temperature unless they feel like they have a fever. If their body temperature is low to start with then a rise in temperature of 3 to 4 degrees will often only bring them up to what is the standard normal temperature…98.6°, which frustrates them since they know that they feel feverish.

The ability to even produce a fever is decreasing in today’s society. Many people diagnosed with cancer state that they were always the healthiest ones at work, and never had a sick day. Some of them have told me that they have never vomited or run a fever in their entire life. These people are nonreactors. This is very bad! Very dangerous!

When the body temperature is consistently low, the body becomes increasingly non-reactive to its environment. Their bodies do not react to the challenges of various microbes. Cancer is an area of the body that has become completely self-contained and is totally non-reactive to the body’s internal and external environment. Many people with cancer are suffering due to a lifetime of disorganized warmth organization and distribution causing ever increasing coldness of their body.

The warmth organization that should have been established through the fevers of childhood illness was suppressed with antipyretic medicines (anti-fever medicines, such as Tylenol), immunizations, and antibiotics.

Several generations in families now have been treated with drugs exclusively in the effort to “free us from suffering”, the end result… generational drug-induced over-cooling and non-reactivity of the human race.

I tell my patients often, if a lion comes up and bites you…you should bleed. If a potentially disease causing microbe is growing unchecked in your body…your body should react and produce the appropriate fever and immune responses. The sickest people are those whose body does not react to the challenges of their environment.

Children, by God’s design, must experience fevers. It is a necessity! Fevers in children train and enable the fully matured and healthy adult body to keep microbes from growing unchecked. Remember from our previous discussion of microbes, that no microbe can replicate at will, or unchecked in a healthy body. Healthy adults, those whose family for generations, were raised with no suppressive treatments, and therefore have a strong heritage, should never experience prolonged infectious disease. These people, if all other aspects of life are balanced, should live incredibly long, illness-free lives.

Ideally, the fevers that are training a child’s body should not be needed in adults. The training of the body during childhood to control the overgrowth of microbes should negate the need for high fevers in the adult. The natural and normal need for fevers in childhood for developmental purposes is not present in an adult. Adults experiencing high fevers should be observed closely to determine the origin of the fever, the significance of which can be much more serious.

If an adult becomes sick from a microbe then we can assume that somewhere along the line their body was not allowed to develop correctly, or they have become out-of-balance in some area of life. In the former case, it is better late than never to support the fever in its belated efforts to learn balance. In the later, efforts should be made to identify what area of life caused the imbalance, correct it, and assist the body in restoring healthy function and balance. These days, doctors are challenged with people presenting with a combination of the above, requiring the re-education of the person on several levels.

While it is true that if we all lived a wonderfully balanced life, no microbe could get enough of a foothold to cause disease, not many people live this way. As a result, we pay the consequences, and microbes do get a foothold. Therapeutic efforts should then be made to restore and/or retrain the body to maintain balance. Treatments such as antibiotic and anti-fever medicines will only further damage the body’s ability and desire to learn from the event. The suppression of the fever through medicines, baths or enemas does not indicate improvement in the underlying illness. Without the fever to assist the healing process, the illness continues down a different path of disturbance likely creating a more severe or chronic illness.

A more ideal treatment protocol works to support the efforts of your body…of which the production of a fever is just one aspect, the rest being specific immune system factors, as well as frequencies and energies generated by the body to kill and bring balance to imbalanced tissues and bring under control the invading microbes.

The frequency matching to a medicine or treatment modality, as in Bio-Resonance Scanning, is believed to work by identifying the most closely matching resonance frequencies to those frequencies the body is already generating to bring the microbes back under control. It stands to reason that the body by God’s design generates specific frequencies and subtle energies to maintain balance. To recoup this point, using herbs to specifically kill microbes FOR the body is no better than taking an antibiotic to kill them. The only treatments that will be of long-term benefit, are those which support the body’s healing frequencies. The body’s healing frequencies are in obvious need of support if you are sick, otherwise your body would not be “playing catch-up.”

The energetic healing ability of the body can be seen in many different ways… the correction of infectious symptoms by a chiropractic adjustment, meridian therapy, homeopathic resonance medicines, and the restoration of balance in stress induced infections, just to name a few. Each of these treatment methods is working to support and strengthen the frequencies that the body is already generating to restore balance.

Recognizing the stages of fever

Pediatric Fevers

Many parents become unduly fearful when their child develops a fever. Keep in mind that the fever is not an illness but a strong healing tool of the body. It is an ally in raising and developing your child into a well balance adult.

The following will help dispel much of this fear, by teaching how to recognize the various stages of fever and thereby what should be done to support the body through these stages. The body produces fever in the initial stages of illness and should be supported and even promoted at times. The illness is not over with the disappearance of the fever. After the full benefit of the fever has been achieved the body will need other treatments unique to the type of illness which may need to be continued from days to weeks.

The earliest signs of illness in children can be seen in a change in their mood and energy level. They may become increasingly sensitive and may appear moody, irritable and tired. Their appetite slacks off, the throat may be sore, glands in the neck swollen, and their temperature is slightly elevated, which is a sure sign that their body needs to work through something. At these first tell-tale signs it is wise to plan ahead and make sure you set aside the time and materials to help your child through their upcoming event.

I remind you that viruses and bacteria are not the enemy in childhood illnesses; they are merely the architectural instrument needed to construct a better, stronger child. So do not worry about having medicines for “killing” the viruses and bacteria. All of the following recommendations are designed to support the body’s own self-regulation. God designed the body to go through this process of training. The goal of treatment is to help direct the degree and duration so that it is not too great or too little.

First of all, honor the body’s loss of appetite. Do not insist that your child eat if they are not hungry. Definitely keep the fluids going down throughout the course of the illness. Herbal teas, such as melaleuca leaf tea, chamomile tea, and herbal laxative teas can promote detoxification of the increased breakdown of substances due to the fever. If no liquids can be kept down, a retention enema is the next best way to keep the child hydrated…chamomile tea enemas can serve double duty in this case as they support the healing process and provide hydration. (See section on retention enemas)

Homeopathic remedies are the best form of medicine to help a child through a fever. They are safe, nontoxic, and have over two hundred years of substantiation and research. As you will see in the upcoming fever guide, the various low potency homeopathic remedies can be safely and confidently used in the home without consulting a physician. No other form of medicine can achieve the degree of benefit in a childhood fever. It is important to never suppress the fever, but to work with the efforts of the body.

Children look and feel miserable many times when in the midst of a fever. Assure them (and yourself) that all is well and that their body is growing stronger and more mature as a result of the fever.

(When taking your child’s temperature, add one degree to the final reading on the thermometer if taking the temperature under the arm. Subtract one degree from the final reading if taken rectally. Both oral and ear thermometer readings are the actual core temperature.)

The Gradually increasing fever: (see protocols for individual illnesses for more specific treatment recommendations.)

When dealing with a gradually increasing fever, as opposed to a rapid and sudden onset high fever, it usually indicates bacteria associated inflammation. In that it is bacterial the initial supporting measures will be different than for viral infections.

• At the early onset of fever such as at 99.0° F, one should support the fever process with a general goal of reaching about 102.0° F. Initial treatment of 6-10 drops or pellets of homeopathic Belladonna 6x should be given every half hour. The belladonna supports and directs the efforts of the body without allowing the fever reaction to progress out of control. The head and torso will be warm and dry to the touch, while the arms and legs will remain cool, during this stage due to the fact that the body is focusing its heating efforts where it is most needed. Do not attempt to bring the fever down with compresses or baths during this phase, as the fever should continue to rise…which is a good thing. (There are some people who advocate the use of saunas and hot baths early in the beginning stages of illness, to “bypass” the need for the fever entirely…do not do this! In light of the prevalent low core body temperatures experienced by most children and adults today, it is of great importance to support and allow the body’s own efforts to go through the process of generating the heat necessary for the condition.)

• If the fever continues to progress beyond 102.5° F, then homeopathic silver 30x (Argentum) should be used to restrain the excessive fever process. Use 6-10 drops or pellets every fifteen minutes until fever breaks or stops rising. Although fevers much higher that this present no great danger in children they generally indicate that the organizational and restructuring efforts of the body are somewhat in need of greater control of the situation. Remember, an excessively high fever, such as 103.5° F or greater, does not mean that the bacterial infection is correspondingly bad, nor does it mean the infection is getting worse. The excessive fever indicates that the temperature regulating aspects of the body are set too high. (Homeopathic silver is not the same as colloidal silver, the latter will not achieve the same results, nor is the homeopathic silver being used to “kill” bacteria in this situation.) In this excessive fever condition, measures to assist in bringing down the body temperature can be used. Room temperature lemon juice and water compresses on the abdomen and calves, as well as tepid water enemas can help to disperse excessive heat.

• If the child’s fever is only weakly manifested, around 99.0° to 100.5° F then one should support and strengthen the body’s efforts, yes actually promote a stronger fever response, so that the goal of the inflammation is reached. Support the weak fever by using 6-10 drops or pellets of homeopathic Sulphur 6x or hepar sulphuris 6x at the same time as adding external warmth through warm baths (no warmer than 100° F). Insure that the sick room is warm. It can be comforting and warming to the spirit to have the room lit with candlelight. Rub the body with Peat-based oils, such as, Solum Uliginosum oil (Wala/Raphael) and wrap the child warmly in peat/wool blend bedding.

• When the fever breaks and begins to fall it is time to support the formative forces working with the purpose of the rebuilding and restructuring of the child. It is at this stage that the heat of the fever will be felt in the arms and legs and the child may break out in perspiration as the heat is no longer needed and the body is attempting to vent it in the extremities. Lemon-water compresses can be used on the abdomen and calves to help the cooling process. Herbal extract of Echinacea augustafolia along with homeopathic Quartz 3x are beneficial for supporting the formative process well beyond the end of the illness event. Refer to specific illness protocols for how to proceed after the fever breaks.

• Remember the fever is just the first stage of the body dealing with the problem. The frequency-matched botanical formulas Microbojen™ and Virogen™ are specifically designed to match and support the energy the body is already generating to resolve virtually any bacteria attack.

The Sudden onset Fever: (see protocols for individual illnesses for more specific treatment recommendations.)

When dealing with a sudden onset rapidly increasing fever, as opposed to a gradual onset fever, it usually indicates virus associated inflammation. In that it is likely viral the initial supporting measures will be different than for bacterial infections.

• Viruses can cause a sudden and rapidly rising fever and no remedy is more indicated than homeopathic Aconite napellus. The optimum dosage is Aconite 6c to 30c potency, 6 to 10 drops every 15-30 minutes increasing time between doses as fever begins to slow its incline. Aconite has strong anti-viral actions, but is used all the way to the breaking of the fever. Aconite puts a restraining action on the rapidly progressing fever process of the body. Remember viruses do not replicate well in a hot body, so once again the point of this remedy is not to bring the fever down but to harness the fever and drive its attack. Be patient; do not use anti-viral medicines until the fever begins to fall. We want the body to achieve the degree of fever it needs and trust its wisdom.

• If the fever continues to progress beyond 102.5° F, then homeopathic silver 30x (Argentum) should be used to restrain the excessive fever process. Although fevers much higher that this present no great danger in children they generally indicate that the organizational and restructuring efforts of the body are somewhat in need of greater control of the situation. (Homeopathic silver (argentum) is not the same as colloidal silver, the later will not achieve the same results, nor is the homeopathic silver being used to “kill” viruses in this situation.) In this excessive fever condition, measures to assist in bringing down the body temperature can be used. Lemon-water compresses on the abdomen and calves, as well as tepid water enemas to disperse excessive heat.

• When the fever breaks and begins to fall discontinue the homeopathic aconite. It is time to support the formative forces working with the purpose of the rebuilding and restructuring of the child. It is at this stage that the heat of the fever will be felt in the arms and legs and the child will break out in perspiration as the heat is no longer needed and the body is attempting to vent it in the extremities. Lemon-water compresses can be used on the abdomen and calves to help the cooling process. Herbal extract of Echinacea augustafolia along with homeopathic Quartz 3x are beneficial for supporting the formative process well beyond the end of the illness event.

• Remember the fever is just the first stage of the body dealing with the problem. The frequency-matched botanical formulas Microbojen™ and Virogen™ are specifically designed to match and support the energy the body is already generating to resolve virtually any viral attack.

Febrile Convulsions in Children:

The possibility of a convulsion is remote and is not necessarily due to an excessively high temperature. The convulsion might manifest as shaking of the whole body, biting the tongue, wild, rolling eyes, and may even include loss of consciousness. Dr. Otto Wolf, M.D. says it best in his book “Home Remedies”, “In rare instances there can be febrile convulsions. While this looks dramatic, in most cases they have passed by the time medical help has been sought. Such convulsions can happen during the time of the increase of the fever, but not at the time of its maximum. For this reason anti-fever drugs are inappropriate. However, if the convulsions last for longer periods, or are repeated, the doctor should be consulted.” Wolf, O. Home Remedies, Herbal and homeopathic treatment for use at home.

Childhood Illness: Training for the Future

2010-11-30T13:40:00.001-06:00

By Dr. David Jernigan
Children are to a degree necessarily imbalanced. They are in a constant state of change. Children seek to discover the limits of their control over their environment. What has become known as childhood infectious illnesses are the training ground of achieving and maintaining balance in their life as an adult. The ability to react appropriately to stimuli is a learning process. If a lion comes up and bites you, you should bleed! If a child is challenged by microbes their body should react appropriately by producing a fever and the lymph nodes should be activated. Physicians are seeing more and more children whose body will not generate a fever. In fact now more than ever children are manifesting diseases that were previously considered to be geriatric illnesses.

Obstetric interventions at birth, none or short-term breastfeeding, vaccinations, indiscriminate antibiotic use, suppressive therapies such as fever-reducing, Tylenol-type medicines, poor lifestyle and dietary choices allow our children to bypass these childhood illnesses taking the fast-track towards adult illnesses such as cancer, diabetes, heart disease, and arthritis. (See reference for more on the effects of modern lifestyle on children) Book, Treickler, R., “Soulways. The Developing Soul – Life Phases, Thresholds and Biography”

As a society, mankind is getting colder at the core body temperature. Observing mankind over the last one hundred years, it is easy to see that we are moving away from inflammatory illnesses which are marked by excessive fever and heat, and moving toward the cold feverless illnesses like multiple sclerosis, cancer, fibromyalgia, and chronic fatigue. It is suggested that mankind was more “full-blooded” in previous centuries.

All illness is a result of imbalance. The body is not dumb and powerless when it succumbs to an infection. The body is wise and will often use an illness to shed old useless immaturity in the body, mind, and spirit. It often simply needs support in its efforts on all three of these levels in order to fully process through the illness.

The ideal treatment is to facilitate the goals of the body in succumbing to the infection, and ultimately provide the building blocks and information the body, mind, and spirit need to fully mature. Doing so will restore balance and enable one to return once more to health. This statement is foundational to understanding healing any illness. Balance is not provided through vaccinations, pills, and injections, but through the thoughtful support of our infants as they progress through childhood developing not only physiological balance, but also mental, emotional, and spiritual balance as they are forced to progress and morph through the very necessary illness training process towards full maturity on all levels.

Training for balanced living in an ideal world does not begin at the birth of your child. In an ideal world it begins over the course of the previous seven generations living and teaching their offspring these concepts of high integrity in body, mind, and spirit. In this way, your child is born fully capable to set his own course without having to deal with inherited weaknesses on any level. Then your child will pass through predictable seven-year cycles of development, which continues most importantly throughout the first twenty-one years. From then on we all apply our training as we meet the challenges of life.

We have been sold swampland in Florida, by well-meaning health care professionals who taught us all to spend our entire lives, from birth onward, trying to avoid illness through artificial means. According to the World Health Organization statistics, the “health conscious” people of the United States, use the most drugs, vitamins, have the most doctors per capita, are blessed with almost the worst health of all the countries in the world.

Billions of dollars are spent annually trying to overcome illness. It is well known that 88% of those billions is spent on symptom relief. How do we stop the vicious cycle?

It is estimated that 80% of a family’s health care choices are made by the Mothers. Mothers must take this information to heart and seek out doctors who support these natural principles. Husbands must also be unified with their wives and be somewhat educated in this topic as well, so that the entire family can always be in agreement and unified. The last thing that needs to happen is for illness to be causing discord in families.

A monumental shift in our thinking is required if we are to redefine the role of illness in our lives. Illness reflects a state of imbalance somewhere in our life. This is one of those times that the “Body, Mind, Spirit” connection must be accepted in order for the law of imbalance can be fully appreciated.

Optimum health is achieved by maintaining proper balance between your body, mind, and spirit. Being out of balance in any of these areas promotes illness. Let’s break this down into its component parts. When the body is not properly nourished, protected, or when sanitary conditions are not maintained, illness can set in. When the mind is allowed to overwork, become depressed, or emotions are suppressed, illness can set in. When the spirit is broken, lost, confused, or misguided, illness can set in.

Each of the body, mind, and spirit are interdependent and therefore one cannot be in a state of imbalance without effecting the others. Illness is then nothing more than a sign of the particular imbalance, no matter what disease name we attach to it.

It is vital for men and women to practice balance long before deciding to have children. The establishment of balance begins in the sperm and ova. The union of these creates a being who must rely on this combined balance of the parents until it is born. At birth there is a transition, a shifting from a shared circulatory system, neurological system, and immune system to an independent system that will be required to hit stages of awakening and development to find its own unique balance.

What we consider to be “Childhood illnesses” are developmental cycles. As the child grows it must pass through these developmental stages in preparation for continued growth, survival, and maturity.

When I think about these developmental stages of childhood, I am reminded of the early Mercury space rockets. There was the initial blast off which at first seemed that possibly something went wrong, with all of the fire, blast, and smoke, but slowly at first the rocket lifted off the launch pad. It gained in speed, shooting straight up, then it began to lean, and for a moment you thought it might loop over and plunge into the earth, but it kept going up. After the initial rocket thrusters were used up, another moment of panic occurred as it seemed that half the rocket exploded and fell off, but this too was a controlled and anticipated chaos, as the next stage rocket thrusters took over. Finally, the space capsule establish the correct altitude and began a balanced orbit, not going up and not coming down. The capsule seemed to be the picture of peace and tranquility, its mission finally achieved. Balance between inner and outer space.

So with this in mind, consider now that childhood maladies such as mumps and measles, and chicken pox, the falling down and the getting up again of the toddler, the emotional ups and downs as the ego develops, and the cracking of the voice, and growing pains, are all controlled chaos designed to be stages of development for the ultimate goal of establishing the full maturity of the individual. They are the breaking away of the rocket thruster to the end that its unique destination is achieved.

This all sounds good and fine you might be saying, but ‘what are we supposed to do when our child is sick?’ Shouldn’t we vaccinate our kids so we can spare them the pain of these illnesses? To answer these questions lets continue with our rocket analogy. What do you suppose would happen if we just kept the first and second stage rocket thrusters attached to the capsule? It might eliminate the fear of something going wrong during their separation from the capsule, but even if the capsule were to reach orbit it would be clumsy to navigate and its balance would be off. Perhaps it would not be able to maintain the correct orbit.

Childhood illnesses are a necessary event that should not be avoided. Providing the natural remedies and therapeutic support for the body is all that is needed. Understand childhood illnesses for what they are, developmental stages that are preparing the child for the challenges of achieving and maintaining balance later in life. In an otherwise balanced life, these childhood illnesses are normally non-life threatening.

“Naturally, every disease is a crisis and, like every real challenge, it entails danger, but it is just this that makes development possible. Of course, the fever can climb too high or last too long, thus endangering the entire organism with toxic products or excessive tissue destruction. The heart and circulation are especially threatened with overtaxing. These dangers are not so great in the child, however, because of the character of his organism. Aggressive measures will hardly be necessary (when dealing with fevers in childhood diseases. For these , physical therapeutic measures – cold packs on the calves or body – will suffice to dampen the excessive reaction without suppressing the fever.” Wolf/Husemann, Anthro. Appoach to Med. Vol I pp44

Heavy Metal Toxicity and Low Body Temperature

2010-11-16T13:59:00.001-06:00

By: Dr. David Jernigan

Heavy metals are one of the primary causes of low body temperature and immune system depression. Many microbes cannot be brought back under control until the heavy metals have been removed from the body. High and low-level infections can be ongoing for decades in spite of high dose antibiotics and intravenous antimicrobials when heavy metals are present. Heavy metals promote the over-acidic, low oxygen, low temperature environment which microbes thrive in.

The term heavy metals refers to the over-accumulation of many different types of metals in the fat cells, central nervous system (brain, brainstem, spinal cord), bones, glands, or hair. Heavy metals may include mercury, lead, cadmium, palladium, platinum, arsenic, and nickel, just to name a few.

Of interest concerning low body temperature are the metals palladium and platinum. Researchers from Notre Dame University and Wichita State University, in the most detailed study of its kind, found that the catalytic converters in automobiles are spewing out palladium and platinum in the exhaust fumes. It is now understood that we are driving through an invisible cloud of these metals and are breathing them into our lungs; we are also potentially consuming them in our foods as these clouds of metal are known to deposit up to 150 feet on either side of the roadways. Crops, farm animals, and even your kitchen and home are constantly being poisoned by the fallout of these metals.

Interestingly, palladium is known as “The Depressive Metal,” since it is known to cause depression in people. It is also known to cause overcooling of the body. Now consider what maladies are plaguing most of America -- depression and low body temperature. Coincidence, or good science?

A story was published in a recent edition of Environmental Science and Technology, reporting that roadside platinum is an allergen that aggravates asthma sufferers and causes other respiratory difficulties. Platinum toxicity has also been associated with cancer and birth defects.

This entire book has been talking about how we must change the body’s internal environment so that it is not a happy home for microbes. Heavy metals play a large role in setting you up for chronic and repeated infections. The effects of all the various heavy metals cannot be addressed completely in this book, but you can see that the detoxification of the body is a an ongoing chore. We live in an incredibly toxic environment. Even when you seemingly live a healthy lifestyle, toxins will remain an issue.

The problem with most efforts to detoxify the body, especially in someone with a low body temperature, is the fact that many of these heavy metal toxins are deposited deep within the body tissues. These deep tissues are cold, rigid, and many times too solidified for even the most clever detoxification medicines and therapies to reach. This is difficult for many people to comprehend, but consider how a body with poor lymphatic fluid movement and poor circulation cannot effectively deliver the detoxifying medicines to the various areas of the body.

In order to effectively detoxify the body, it stands to reason that the doctor and healthcare team must address the low body temperature. Restoring the normal body temperature will then restore the normal liquid-fluid flow dynamics that would allow the detoxification medicines to reach and remove the metals and toxins.

Another primary source of heavy metal toxicity is the dental material, primarily mercury, used for the last 100+ years, which is used in many “silver amalgams.” These amalgam fillings were so controversial when first introduced in the late 1800’s that it split the only dental association of the time, the National Association of Dental Surgeons, into two groups. One group said no one should ever use mercury in the mouth because it is so very toxic and is known to leach out over time, poisoning the body. The other group of dentists liked how easy it was to work with and how inexpensive mercury amalgams were. In the 1800’s, gold was the otherwise preferred dental filling material. The two factions debated the issue until a new dental association was born, the American Dental Association (ADA), our present-day leading dental association, which you see approving most grocery store brand toothpastes. It was the ADA who approved of the mercury fillings, which became the norm of our society.

Of historical interest, the first use of the name “Quack” when referring to a questionable doctor was used to label these dentists using mercury, since mercury was then known as “Quacksilver.” Today it is estimated that millions of mercury amalgams are placed in teeth every year in the U.S. alone. One can only marvel at the power and influence various associations in our country have over our standard of living, especially when considering that doctors and dentists have been persecuted and prosecuted, sometimes losing their license to practice in the U.S., for attempting to spread the word about these issues and relieve suffering through the removal of amalgams. Recent legislation has been proposed to outlaw the use of mercury in amalgams.

Some countries, such as Sweden, have banned the use of mercury and will even pay up to 50% of the cost to have it removed from its citizens, stating that the cost of removal is cheaper than paying for the long-term chronic illnesses as the result of these amalgams. (On a related dental note, many European countries do not allow the use of fluoride in water and toothpaste due to limited benefit and excessive health complications.)

Mercury is 1000 times more toxic than lead, while the methyl-mercury vapor coming off of fillings during chewing is 100 times more toxic than elemental mercury.

These “silver amalgams” actually contain up to 50% mercury by weight, 35% silver, 13% tin, 2% copper, and a trace amount of zinc.

German research has shown that mercury from a pregnant mother’s amalgams are directly related to high levels of mercury in their fetuses. I have seen many toothless patients who use only dentures and are incredulous that they have heavy metal toxicity still from old amalgams long removed. The teeth were likely removed due to long-term degenerative changes in teeth that were full of amalgams, crowns, root canals, and bridges, all of which were releasing various metals into the bones and tissues of the jaws, and indeed the entire body. Dr. Stephan Edelson, M.D., medical director of the Environmental and Preventative Health Center of Atlanta, Georgia, explains that, “mercury vapor (methyl-mercury) is readily absorbed into the blood because of its solubility in blood lipids (fatty molecules). This process contributes to between 80 and 100% absorption through the lungs from which the mercury is then carried to virtually every tissue of the body, including the brain." Therefore, the burden all of those years of metals leaching from the teeth and from other sources are not relieved by simply removing the teeth. You must understand that it is no simple matter to detoxify the body of heavy metals.

Taking a Flying Leap Off a Bridge! By: Dr. David Jernigan

2010-11-02T13:13:00.000-05:00

I want to tell you a story I once heard that really brings the point to many of the articles I have published to date.

A top student at a prestigious medical school and his favorite professor were walking along a jogging path beside a river outside of the university. The student was very pleased to have this individual time with his professor outside of the classroom environment.

Suddenly they heard cries for help! They looked and saw a man drowning in the river. The student kicked off his shoes and jumped into the river. With much strain and effort the student fought the river current and dragged the now unconscious man onto the riverbank and began CPR. An ambulance had been called, which by the time it arrived the drowned man was breathing again through the heroic efforts of the student.

As the ambulance drove off with the man, the student felt pretty puffed-up, proud to have been able to show off his abilities to his favorite professor. The student glanced at his professor as they continued their walk along the river, but the professor didn’t seem impressed.

A short while later they happened upon another drowning man, and again the student saved him at great effort. Still no great reaction from the professor, who simply acknowledged the job as well performed.

As they continued their walk, the student through great heroic effort had to save two more people from drowning. As he dragged the last victim from the river, he looked up at his professor and exclaimed, “I don’t know how long I can keep doing this – I’m getting exhausted!” The wise professor said, “Then you might want to run up ahead and stop the guy who is pushing these poor people off the bridge.”

This is the way I used to feel in my clinic. I could save many people from certain death through great personal effort, but it was never ending. I was tired and frustrated at trying to save people who were being thrown into the “river” by the ignorance and by the misguidance of politically and economically motivated dictocrats of physical, mental, and spiritual health. I mean, does anyone really believe that they are having pain due to a deficiency of aspirin? Or that margarine, which is only missing a couple of ingredients from being axle grease really promotes better health?

There truly is no shortage of sick people. A doctor reading this may think that no one is interested in true balanced living. That everyone is just interested in the quick-fix. I predict that if doctors become masters of balanced living; and reorganized their clinics to practice natural Biological Medicine, that people would come out of the woodwork to be a part and learn for themselves the art of living a higher quality of existence.

Save yourself! Get educated in natural ways to prevent getting sick in the first place. Look around and see that millions are dying in spite of all the drugs, vaccinations, and surgeries. Preventive measures are key to health and longevity!

Are you Harboring Bacteria in your Teeth?

Are you Harboring Bacteria

in your Teeth?

By: Dr David Jernigan of Hansa Center for Optimum Health

If we see teeth for what they truly are they are one of the most crystalline entry points into the organ circuits of the body. In many people with chronic illness, after years of antibiotics and natural anti-bacterial remedies, bacteria have been found living in the gingival tissues around the teeth.

Bacteria and their toxins can enter every organ and tissue from this hiding place where antibiotics cannot effectively reach since it is not directly in the tissues of the body.

Even if you floss and brush your teeth religiously and use Listerine-type mouthwashes you are still missing up to 93% of the rot and food particles that have gotten jammed underneath the gum line…a bacteria wonderland to escape antibiotics.

While it is not necessary to annihilate every bit of bacteria in order to experience a complete restoration of health, eliminating these colonies of bacteria and putrefied food can completely take your health to new levels!

The favorite way to eliminate these bacteria hiding in your teeth is to use a Waterpik Waterflosser Ultra with purified water and a cap full of Thieves Mouthwash, the highly antibacterial/anti-viral/anti-fungal essential oil blend.

Thieves Mouthwash was tested in 1997 by Weber State University, et al. and shown to be highly effective against and incredible range of microbes. See the list of bacteria below that either Thieves blend or the individual oils found in Thieves have been effective at killing.

The name Thieves comes from the archives in England of 1413 during the Bubonic Plague that killed over 60 million people. When four thieves were caught robbing the homes of the death houses during the plague, the judge said he would go easy on them if they would tell the court how they managed to not get the Bubonic plague. For a lighter sentence the thieves gave up their essential oil combination that they put on their hands, ears, and temples.

Thieves Mouthwash is formulated with a revolutionary patented liposome technology (using soy-derived lecithin) that binds the essential oils to the mucus membrane inside the mouth. This amplifies the effect and enables the essential oils to remain in the mouth for extended periods of time for long-lasting germ-killing, while being nontoxic to healthy tissue.

By combining the power of this specific type of Waterpik and Thieves Mouthwash in the water these power oils blast away the bacteria and promote all the dental health promised by research.

This specific type of Waterpik (The Waterflosser Ultra) is 93% more effective than string flossing at improving gum health. It removes 99.9% of plaque in 3 seconds if used after a dental cleaning, and is guaranteed to result in healthier gums in 14 days.

Anyone who uses floss should smell the floss after having flossed. Often it will smell putrid revealing pockets of bacteria-ridden colonies.

Thieves oil blend is so effective that it has been turned into many different products from lozenges to toothpaste and household and hand cleaners.

Laboratory Tested Bacteria killed by the ingredients of Thieves oil blend:

Salmonella choleraesuis
Staphylococcus aureus
Yersinia enterocolitica
Diphtheria
Prevotella intermedia
Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Streptococcus mutans
Listeria monocytogenes
Actinomyces viscosus
Escherichia coli
Porphyromonas gingivalis
Enterococcus faecalis

9-Steps to Eating on Purpose

9-Steps to Eating On Purpose

By Dr. David Jernigan of Hansa Center For Optimum Health

How many times do you just wolf-down your meal in a mad rush to finish before getting back to work?

How many times are you eating out of obligation to just eat?

How many times do you see undigested food in your stool?

Gross, I know!

Do you have food allergies?

If you answered “Yes” to any of these questions it is likely you need to retrain yourself in how to eat on purpose.

1. Maintain regular and consistent mealtimes. It is better to eat five smaller meals than three large meals.

2. Before eating relax momentarily for 10 seconds, then begin eating. (Blessing your food in prayer – science has shown that this cleans the food, makes it more bio-available, more digestible, and consequently tastes better)

3. Smell each item on your plate before you take your first bite, like sniffing your wine before drinking, which will awaken the taste centers in your brain. Your food will magically have more flavors if you do this simple action.

4. Pay attention to what you are eating. Chew until each bite is smooth and easily swallowed. Seek to feel the energy and taste the subtle flavors of the food. If you have food allergies and/or see undigested food in your BM then you definitely are not chewing your food well enough before swallowing. No food should be swallowed whole.

5. Force yourself to slow down, this will aid digestion and appetite satisfaction. Eating should not be a chore. Many times food is eaten without much awareness to what is eaten, much like driving a car for miles and suddenly realizing you don’t recall anything about the journey.

6. Eating by candlelight and calming music can assist in setting a relaxing tone to the evening meal.

7. Avoid alternating between hot and cold foods on a frequent basis.

8. Eat most of your daily protein in the morning or at lunch time (Stomach acid is highest early in the day which allows for better digestion of proteins…the bi-product of incomplete protein digestion is called nitrosamines and are very carcinogenic).

9. Drink body temperature, purified water (a minimum of 8, eight-ounce glasses per day). Cold water requires more work by your body to bring it up to body temperature. This can be a problem when so many people now adays are suffering from low body temperature. Don’t drink tap water as it often contains herbicides, pesticides, chlorine, fluoride, and other chemicals. Do not drink much during the meal as this dilutes the stomach digestive juices. Do not drink over a gallon per day.

Flu Season is coming...NOT!

2010-09-21T13:46:00.000-05:00

Flu Season is coming.....NOT!

By: Dr. David Jernigan

Do we really believe Flu-viruses and Bacteria are stronger in the Winter time?

Every year the pharmaceutical/medical mass media marketing begins in the Fall-season and proceeds through late Spring in fear-mongering everyone into believing they must get flu shots.

When considering the fact that historically influenza viruses have killed many people throughout the last hundred years it would seem justified to think we should be thankful for vaccines.

The truth is that no virus or bacteria can replicate out of control and cause disease in an optimally healthy person of any age!

(See Dr. Jernigan’s recommendations at the end of this article on how to reach optimum health)

In a dominantly poorly functioning society of people who are loaded with environmental toxins and pesticide/herbicide/fungicide/preservative-laden foods, not to mention the deleterious effects of the average American taking an average of 12 pharmaceutical suppressive/symptom-masking medicines that are weakening the overall integrity and function of the body, it is no wonder when Fall, Winter, and Spring come the body is dragged even further down in its ability to resist microbes and virus’!

Last year’s Swine Flu fiasco is a great example of how the “power-that-be” see the world population not as people, but as “sheeple” that can be lead to do anything without question.

Thankfully Americans are getting wiser and only a third of our population submitted their body to the Swine Flu vaccine.

In the end, the Swine flu virus was 40 times weaker than we were being told and the reported statistics of people affected were misrepresented by the WHO and our government since every person with flu-like symptoms and/or pneumonia was assumed to have Swine Flu, which was not the case.

On June 24th, the European Parliamentary Assembly criticized the lack of transparency and "grave shortcomings" in the decision-making processes relating to the pandemic, stating:

"The Parliamentary Assembly is alarmed about the way in which the H1N1 influenza pandemic has been handled, not only by the World Health Organization (WHO) but also by the competent health authorities at the level of the European Union and at national level.

It is particularly troubled by some of the consequences of decisions taken and advice given leading to distortion of priorities of public health services across Europe, waste of large sums of public money and also unjustified scares and fears about health risks faced by the European public at large.

The Assembly notes that grave shortcomings have been identified regarding the transparency of decision-making processes relating to the pandemic which have generated concerns about the possible influence of the pharmaceutical industry on some of the major decisions relating to the pandemic."

When the WHO (World Health Organization) finally released a list of its pandemic advisers, it finally confirmed that at least five of the key players who influenced the phase six pandemic declaration indeed had financial ties to vaccine makers.

The reality is that EVERYTHING you read about how deadly or potentially harmful a flu or any other infection is projected to be is based upon the anticipated response in a DYSFUNCTIONAL population!

No virus is more lethal in the colder months of the year!

No bacteria are more lethal in the colder months of the year!

It is your body being dragged down by the cold that sets up the situation for you to get sick.

This year bypass the toxic, virally contaminated, fear-mongered, money-motivated vaccines and take these simple action steps to keep your body absolutely healthy all year-round.

Dr. Jernigan’s Recommendations

• Find a natural/alternative medicine doctor who can help you improve the overall health of your entire body, structurally, chemically, and electromagnetically. Preferably a doctor trained in Biological Medicine.

• Practice good hygiene. Keep your fingers out of your mouth, nose, eyes, and ears. Wash your hands after touching high traffic things like escalator rails, door knobs, taxi seats, when shaking lots of hands… Use NanoDerm Lotion on your hands as it will form an undetectable barrier against any bacteria and virus.

• Eliminate from your diet every food that is not prepared fresh and chemical-free, including chemical/hormone/antibiotic-drug-free meats. No processed and prepackaged foods and drinks.

• Exercise! This step is huge in its importance! Any exercise that will move every muscle everyday is good. For those who for any reason cannot get up the will to exercise or for some health reason cannot exercise I highly recommend the professional-model Vibrational Platform Therapy. At this point there are several companies out there who are producing or selling similar machines, but the our doctors have worked with the company we use and have had them provide us with a better motor than is available at this time on the open market…yes I know it sounds like salesmanship, however it is the truth at this time. It is the proverbial “Buyer beware” when buying this type machine.

• Sunshine or the latest healthy and yes I mean HEALTHY, vitamin D promoting, Light therapy beds. I don’t call these particular beds “Tanning beds” since the point is not to get a Hawaiian tropic tan, but with the various colors of the lights in this bed it actually heals your skin and cranks up the Vitamin D. Used as directed these new beds are a must year-round, but especially during the colder months when the sun is further away from the earth. Naturally occurring Vitamin D produced by your own body, is infinitely better for you than ANY commercially produced nutritional supplement of Vitamin D! Naturally produced Vitamin D activates some of the most potent anti-cancer, antibacterial, and antiviral effects known to man!

• Take frequency-matched botanical supplements like Virogen at the first possible symptom and if it still progresses then switch to Microbojen.

• Diffuse therapeutic-grade essential oils in your house and workplace. These quality pure oils are naturally hypo-allergenic and kill many viruses, bacteria, and fungi ON CONTACT! They are very health-promoting to all the tissues of the body. There are a few really good essential oil companies, however the one I have used for many years with consistent results is the Young Living Essential Oil company. For respiratory and antimicrobial help I recommend diffusing and applying topically on the skin…the oil blends, R/C blend, Thieves blend, Citrus Fresh blend, Transformation blend, and ImmuPower blend.

• Live a balanced life…play as much as you work. Make the decision to be joyful inside of yourself even if you live or work in a negative environment. The immune system is supercharged every time we smile and laugh! Learn to live “miraculously” in each moment in the book, “Everyday Miracles by God’s Design.”

Eating Isnt Rocket Science!

2010-09-14T11:40:00.001-05:00

Eating Isn’t Rocket Science!

To listen to the giants in the dietary industry eating has become a very scientific endeavor. “Do eat this…Don’t eat that” has made many people numb to the whole eating-healthy craze.

While scientific research has helped us better understand what foods promote optimum health, the list of foods that should dominate your plate is much easier to remember than you might think.

Our Maker did not make eating to be rocket-science! However, science validates the honest truth behind one of the very first, written diets. In this case the word “diet’ doesn’t refer to a weight-loss diet, but refers simply to the way we should optimally eat all the time. The hands-down best diet dates back over 4000 years and was written by Divine inspiration.

Why do I feel I am qualified to make such strong opinions on diet? I have a Bachelor’s degree in Nutrition, a doctorate, I have travelled and trained in the healing arts all over the world, studied dietary science in post-graduate training, not mention the many books and publications I have read on the topic of eating to promote health. I have helped facilitate the successful restoration of health for thousands of people. All this to show how many years one can spend learning the “rocket-science” of eating!

Forget the Dictocrats of dietary rocket science.

Healthy eating is easy!

The book by Dr. Jordan Rubin titled, “ The Maker’s Diet” presents the oldest written diet that stands up to the rigors of science. The Maker’s diet wins hands down over a chemist’s kitchen.

The Maker’s Diet book, when combined with my other favorite book written by Sally Fallon, “Nourishing Traditions” give you the knowledge how to easily and successfully know without doubt how to eat without fear.

If you are reading this article then you are likely someone who is making more natural lifestyle and healthcare choices to help you and your family reach optimum health. Read these books and know for once that you know all that you need to know about eating.

You can be liberated from the fear and rocket-science of eating.

Bon Apetit!

Respecting the Wisdom of the Body

2010-09-07T14:18:00.000-05:00

The Case of the Poisoned Apple

Jane’s fever started right after school let out for the day. She felt tired, achy, nauseous, and had diarrhea. She walked into the kitchen where her mother felt her forehead. It was hot.

“Doctor Mom” reached to open “the cabinet,” the ubiquitous cabinet in every home that contains all the left over bottles of medicine. “Fever…Tylenol, Nausea and diarrhea…Pepto-Bismol,” she itemized under her breath.

With the pills taken, Jane was able to make it to soccer practice, but skipped dinner since she wasn’t hungry and took another round of the medicines her mother had given her earlier and went to bed feeling a bit better. By morning she was up and ready for school with most of her usual bounce and enthusiasm. Jane’s mom dramatically wiped her brow and uttered a “Whew…Crisis averted!”

But was she really better?

This story is repeated thousands of times a day across the country. If you are guilty of this, don’t worry or fret about it. You are doing what conventional medicine has done for over a century for virtually every symptom known to man, masking the symptoms or in other words, relieving the symptom so life for the person suffering can get back to normal quickly, so it feels very logical, natural and effective.

I want to arm you with knowledge so that you can recognize the wisdom of the body and work with the body’s efforts instead of counteracting them with Tylenol and Pepto.

So the question is, “Is Jane truly better, even though she awakened the next morning without any symptoms?”

If we go back to the start of Jane’s plight, we see she was eating an apple at school and it got knocked out of her hand onto the ground. She brushed it off and finished the apple.

She had been drinking a large bottle of water while eating the apple, so her stomach acid was very diluted so the bacteria from the apple hitting the ground were not killed like they normally would be by the acid.

The bacteria went to work and immediately started irritating the stomach and intestines.

Here is the wisdom of the body. The body set up a fever to quickly burn up the excess water in the stomach and to increase the acidity of the stomach again in an attempt to kill the bacteria. When there is any toxic chemical or bacteria that pass the initial defense of the highly acidic stomach juices, the wisdom of the body is to cause a rapid purge of the entire digestive tract by vomiting and diarrhea.

The wisdom of the body also turned off Jane’s appetite centers in her brain so that Jane would not dilute and irritate and complicate the healing process.

The fever also serves to change the normal temperature in the body in order to thin the body fluids (Like heating molasses makes it runnier) so that the movement of the immune system “Pac-men” can proceed through the body more easily to gobble up the invading bacteria.

The wisdom of the body was to make Jane feel tired and achy so that she wouldn’t divert too much energy away from the healing response to run the muscles.

Doctor Mom might say, “But Jane didn’t get any more fevers or nausea, or diarrhea for the rest of the year!” However, because the bacteria were never eliminated by the body they got a foothold in the intestinal walls and gradually killed off the normal flora (beneficial friendly bacteria) that help with the digestion of food and work synergistically with your body to produce many of the nutrients the brain and body need in order to function correctly.

Without these friendly bacteria to serve Jane her grades and ability began to slip. She began to fight constipation and sometimes wouldn’t have a bowel movement for three or more days without taking something to force it out. After a year had passed Jane was diagnosed with Irritable Bowel Syndrome and she missed being able to go the college she wanted because her GPA wasn’t high enough.

To disrespect the wisdom of the body, either by Dr. Mom or by your Medical Doctor is to alter what might have been, and to start down a completely different path in life.

Even the use of antibiotics in this case disrespects the wisdom and healing ability of the body and is truly weakening the body overall by also killing over 400 strains of friendly bacteria in the gut (the best Probiotics can only replace a handful of these friendly bacteria, like Lactobacillis acidophilus). The result is the same in the end…Irritable Bowel Syndrome, ADD, and lost college scholarships.

So let’s go back to how Dr. Mom might have handled Jane’s problem to support the efforts of the body.

Jane walks into the kitchen where her mother is working. She feels her daughter’s forehead. It is hot. Dr. Mom reminds her daughter that by the time she has a fever her body is already in the healing phase and all of this discomfort, while not fun, is a good thing because it means she has a strong immune system.

Dr. Mom told Jane that she couldn’t go to soccer practice since the tiredness Jane felt was her body diverting energy to the healing process.

Dr. Mom reached for “The Cabinet” and grabbed the immune system boosting supplement she had gotten from her doctor of Biological Medicine just for this type situation.

She encouraged Jane to stick her finger down her throat to speed the desire of the body to vomit, thereby purging the offending bacteria from her system. Jane did as instructed and immediately felt a shift within her body, mind, and spirit as if a corner had been turned and all was getting better. The nausea subsided.

Jane had a big release of diarrhea as her body purged the invading bacteria from her system.

Forbidden to go to soccer practice or to do homework, Jane took a two-hour nap since her body was making her feel tired. She awoke feeling much better. The fever had broken and she was now clammy feeling because her body no longer needed the fever and was attempting to cool the body down again. The nausea and diarrhea were also gone.

Dr. Mom upon seeing Jane was awake sent her to take a warm soaking bath with 4 cups of Epsom Salts and 64 ounces of 3% Hydrogen Peroxide for twenty minutes. This would help rapidly eliminate the residual toxins from the battle that had gone on in Jane’s body, not to mention how relaxing it would be to wash the old sick feeling off of the body. Dr. Mom knew that while a hot bath may feel better, that a warm water bath would be more in alignment with what Jane’s body was doing at this time.

Jane finished her bath and though she felt better, she still didn’t have her full appetite so her mother had her eat vegetable broth soup that would be easy to digest and would replace many of the electrolytes the body used up in creating the diarrhea purging.

The next day Jane awoke completely refreshed and came bounding down the stairs to the kitchen where she voraciously ate a big healthy breakfast. Not only did she feel no residual effects from the ordeal the day before, but Dr. Mom noticed she seemed different…more mature somehow. “In some way maybe Jane’s body needed this fight to enable her entire being to mature and grow!” “Hmmm, Dr. Mom thought…It really is body, mind, and spirit.”

Eat, Pray, Love, Change!

2010-08-18T15:26:00.001-05:00

I just went to see the movie “Eat, Pray, Love” with my teenage daughters. I didn’t know much about the movie except that it was based upon a true story of a woman traveling the world to find peace within her self.

On the drive home with my daughters, now fifteen and seventeen, we reflected upon how much life had changed for all of us in their short life.

It seems the only reliable constant is that everything will change. We all know that everything will change, but somehow we are never ready for it when it happens.

I seem to live my life so much in the now-moment, with very little thought for the past or tomorrow, that on some level I feel like this luscious moment of post-movie bliss with my daughters in the car with me is somehow always going to be this way.

“This life is good,” I think to myself. I have been Dad for seventeen years and even beyond my persona as a doctor and writer, I am first and foremost a dad. I love being a dad.

Change is inevitable. My oldest daughter will soon leave and go to college and live her own life, then my other daughter, and eventually my son. I know each step will feel like a surprise, like “How did that happen?”

In smaller ways, and sometime larger ways, life is perpetually changing. The trick is to adapt instantly and correctly on the heart and mind levels to these changes so that at all times we are confident in God's perfect plan.
Our task is to readily open our hearts and minds to allow love to continue its guidance within us, brought about by change, towards greater inner maturity, joy, and peace.

It is an awareness and a purposeful and conscious decision we must make to put up no resistance to change, to see Divine-perfection in all things, to gracefully allow ourself and others to change, and to know the work to be done while on this earth is within our own self.

Change is a constant of all healthy growth. To resist change is to create turmoil.

Okay life, I am ready, and if you don’t mind…I think I will keep the change!

Lyme Disease: A History of Chasing Bugs

2010-08-10T12:38:00.000-05:00

Lyme Disease is an enigma to everyone, something that baffles understanding and cannot be explained.

The question has been asked as to when Lyme disease first arrived in the population.

Of course there is the well-known discovery of Borrelia burgdorferi spirochetes in the 80’s, but many doctors know that it has been around for a very long time, though it was called different things based upon what symptoms a person was having.

It is interesting to this author that medicine has been chasing one “bug” after another in the attempt to nail down exactly why this is one of the most prevalent diseases on the planet.

At first these same people were told their primary cause for their symptoms was

diet related, and many doctors ran to place their patients on restrictive diets. Next came Candida yeast, and every doctor ran to treat his or her patients with anti-yeast products and yeast cleanses.

When that ultimately didn’t work, doctors learned of the prevalence of parasitic infection in many people and yeast was dropped and anti-parasitic protocols were the rage. Still many people were left still sick. So virus’ were then blamed for all the symptoms and exotic treatments were developed to eliminate Epstein-Barr Virus and Cytomegalovirus, and others.

Still many remained sick.

Once Lyme disease was identified as a bacteria spirochete, everyone ran to antibiotics with the promise of annihilating these bugs and delivering a cure finally. The full gamut of prescription antibiotics often still did little to relieve the suffering in the long run.

Eventually a string of “co-infections” were identified and Babesia microti, Ehrlichia, and the cyst form of Borrelia were added to the most-wanted hit list. This lead to more drugs but often more symptoms as well as the drugs wreaked their havoc of the bodies of the hapless victims of this bug hunt.

Human-Herpes Virus-6 and Bartonella bacteria were added to the hit list and soon it was all out war against everything from yeast to Bartonella, not to mention swine flu and every other bug that might wander by into the crossfire of the anti-life (anti-biotic) war.

Bugs, bugs, bugs, and more bugs! What is next and when are we going to learn that killing bugs most often does not lead to a restoration of health?

While antibiotics have historically and still do save lives in certain situations, it would seem that in the conditions generally lumped together as Lyme Disease, that killing more bugs is not the answer!

We definitely know that it is not the absence of symptoms, since feeling good is no guarantee of being healthy. We also know that everyone has Strep bacteria and a myriad of other bugs in our body even when we are symptom free year after year.

True healing can never occur by simply masking the symptoms. And if the bugs are excessively treated without resulting in lasting health, then we know they too are a symptom of underlying problems.

True Healing is the product of guiding and facilitating the restoration of integrity of every aspect of the body, mind, and spirit through thoughtfully applied physical treatments, natural medicines, and therapies, as well as through teaching and coaching one back to optimum health on all levels.

Stop the war and start healing today.

The Life Odometer: Thriving to 120+ Years Young!

2010-07-27T11:16:00.004-05:00

Are you sick of just surviving your day? Where does it end? Women outlive men by many years and the distance is widening. If you watch the Today Show in the morning on tv you can see Willard Scott celebrating more people than ever with birthdays that are over 100 years. Most of these people did not do everything right…they just didn’t die!

No one knows how long each generation is going to live, however according to epidemiological studies, all indicators show that you will likely live even longer than the current centurions.

Many people when asked say they do not want to live that long. My response to that is like it or not you will probably live way longer than you may want to live.

Do you plan to retire at 65 old? Do you feel yourself slowing down like all of your dreams, hopes, and inspiration can finally just coast the rest of the way through whatever life you have left?

My question to you is why?

If you are 45ish then you really can live your entire life from birth to 45 almost two more times…without having to go through puberty diapers and puberty again! You know how people always say, “I might not mind going back to a younger age if I knew what I know now?” well you can be and do anything you choose to be and do.

Have you ever watched a colony of ants? They are one of the most industrious and busy creatures on the planet. Every ant is in perpetual motion it seems, busy doing, coming, and going as fast as they can. Look at Americans… If you could stand over our nation and watch us as we watch ants on an anthill, you would see that we have an uncanny frantic movement just the same as ants. We live, it would seem from our lofty vantage point, to work. We run, run , run then gradually slow down and die.

Do you truly want to live to work? I hope you want to live to experience joy in every thing you do for work and play. Do you really want to live so that you can retire? Is this the purpose and ultimate fulfillment in life? Most people feel that they are like a gerbil on an exercise wheel, barely keeping up but unable to get off.

Imagine if your life had an odometer that would timeout at 10,360,000 seconds in your 120-year life. Only your odometer would spin faster, shortening your quality and length of life with each thing you do in life that is contrary to the optimum health of your body, mind, and spirit.

Of course if you redefine the purpose of your life to choosing only those natural healthcare choices that work in complete synergy with the optimum integrity and function of the entire body…and you learn to follow the joyful emotions and let them guide your journey…your odometer will spin slower and your youth will be yours to enjoy throughout your entire lifetime.

Are you mentally, physically, and emotionally tired? You don’t have to be, help is here.

It is no mystery why the United States suffers with some of the worst health on the planet. For all of our drugs to tame the symptoms of our illnesses, the World Health Organization rates the United States as 37th in all the nations for overall health and life satisfaction! There definitely is a better way to maintain health! In Europe, it is called the European Biological Medicine Network. In the United States it is called American Biological Medicine.

This is call to arms and a call to a better life, against chaotic living and the illusionary “health” offered by pharmaceutical medicine… a nationwide revolution is here!

American Biological Medicine is the state of the science and state of the art in health and healing that can set your odometer to a slow spin of joyful, healthy life, without toxic medications, and without the fear of gradual declining health in your later years.

Women are said to make 80% of the health care and life decisions for their family. You can only go as far as you have been taught, and you can only make good health care decisions if you know what is available.

Help us get true health reform by educating yourself about American Biological Medicine and do whatever you know to do to help it go viral. To learn more go to www.hansacenter.com

Why Detoxifying The Body of Lyme Toxins May Not Be Enough!

2010-07-13T13:28:00.003-05:00

Research indicates that the majority of symptoms in Lyme disease are caused by the release of toxins by the spirochetes. If that were not bad enough, for most people in the United States, the daily accumulation of toxins just from living, eating, and breathing is staggering!

Environmental toxins from our air, water, personal care products, medications, and food supply are jamming up the machinery of the cells, interfering with the regulation of the body.

Toxins are a global problem. There is virtually no one on the planet who does not need to detoxify the body on a continual basis.

Every person on the planet should be working to eliminate the sources of toxins in our house and life. Detoxification of the body must be a part of any effective Lyme protocol or one risks permanent damage to nerve and joint tissue from the toxic irritation.

Today more than 77,000 chemicals are in active production in this country. Our exposure to these chemicals is greater than at any time since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. More than 3,000 chemicals are added to our food supply, and more than 10,000 chemicals in the form of solvents, emulsifiers, and preservatives are used in food processing and storage.

Ethyl alcohol, isopropanol, wood rosin, shellac, propylene glycol, silicone, ammonium hydroxide…

You are eating these particular toxins for breakfast if you’re eating non-organic commercial grapefruit, melons and fresh oranges from the supermarket…

Thiabendazole, mineral oil, methylparabin, dimethyl polysiloxane, benzimadazole…

You’re eating these chemicals for lunch if you had supermarket tomatoes, avocado, apples…

Fungicides botran, 2-6 dichloro-4-nitroaniline, orthophenylphenol…

Sound like a good balanced dinner?

You’re eating these yummy ingredients in sweet potatoes, onions, and limes from your local supermarket.

Fungicides are put into wax to provide a longer shelf life; even peeling your fruit and vegetables will not get rid of the chemical toxins, they often permiate the entire fruit or vegetable.

And we wonder why the United States is ranked 36th in all the nations of the world for health, according to the World Health Organization!

We cannot eat, breathe, and put toxins on our skin (personal care products) and get away with it for very long.

These chemicals are bioaccumlative over the course of a person’s life…meaning they accumulate in the tissues of the body gradually with continued exposure.

These chemicals are known to cause cancers, birth defects, damage to the immune system, and directly cause many other diseases.

When ingested, these chemicals can remain in the body for years, altering our metabolism, causing enzyme dysfunction and nutritional deficiencies, creating hormonal imbalances and lowering our threshold of resistance to chronic disease.

Besides food borne chemicals, we are continually subjected to poor air quality, chemically contaminated water, household cleaners, paint fumes, pharmaceutical drugs, pesticides, heavy metals (including mercury) and the list goes on and on.

Today, studies show that most of us have between 400 and 800 foreign chemical residues stored in the fat cells of our bodies. This occurs gradually over the course of our lives. These chemicals enter into the body either through the skin, lungs, or they are eaten.

Most of the time, these chemicals are bio-accumulative, meaning miniscule amounts accumulating over the course of years. These chemicals and heavy metals make up the “total toxic burden.”

When the amount of toxins exceed the body’s ability to excrete them, our body will begin to store these toxins. This bio-accumulation seriously compromises our physiological and psychological health and leads to chronic disease.

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Study of the U.S.A Toxic Load

Since 1976 the EPA has been conducting studies to determine the presence of toxins in the fat cells of the body. This study is called the National Adipose Tissue Survey (NHATS). The results of this study are staggering.

Across the United States, the EPA took samples of people’s fat cells (adipose) and analyzed the samples for the presence of various toxins. In 98% of the samples they found many toxins, including benzene, PCBs, DDE (a metabolite of DDT pesticide), dioxins, toluene, and chlorobenzene, all of which are highly damaging to the immune system and compromise every tissue in the body.

The EPA only looks for 100 out of the potential thousands of different toxins that could be present in the fatty tissue samples. Twenty different toxins were identified in over 75% of all the samples.

So, from this and other studies you can see that it is no so much a matter of “if” you have toxins in your body, rather how much! Remember that our goal is not to just get rid of Lyme spirochetes or your symptoms, but to remove anything that may be blocking your body’s healing mechanisms.

True health is not the absence of pain or symptoms, otherwise aspirin would be the ultimate longevity medicine.

Toxicity Symptoms

The following is a partial list of known symptoms often related to toxicity:

• allergies
• acne
• anxiety
• burning skin
• brain fog
• chronic fatigue
• chemical sensitivities
• depression
• eczema
• frequent colds or flu
• feeling “sick all over”
• insomnia
• loss of dexterity
• low body temperature
• memory loss
• mood swings
• muscle and joint pains
• poor concentration

The list of potential toxicity symptoms for Lyme sufferers is the entire list of possible Lyme Disease symptoms since the symptoms are the result of the bacterial toxins.

As a result of this widespread environmental contamination, doctors are faced with increased rates of toxin-related cancers, neurological diseases, reduced immune function, allergies, and the newer diagnoses of multiple chemical sensitivities, chronic fatigue syndrome, and fibromyalgia.

Doctors are finding their usual treatments are not as effective as in the past due to the presence of these many toxins in people.

Did you know that few people actually die of cancer?

Authorities say that they actually die of toxemia, produced by an excessive buildup of toxins from the medications and the lifetime of accumulated toxins.

Did you know that you can not simply take supplements and laxatives to eliminate all of the toxins? You must be guided through a total body protocol to truly achieve detoxification. Consider the skin for a moment.

Did you know that your skin is one of your largest organs of elimination? Your skin should be releasing two pounds of waste acids every day!

Most people have spent their entire life blocking this process through lotions and powder and toxic antibacterial, deodorant soaps. So as you can see, two pounds of waste per day that is not being eliminated through the skin is going to add up and tax the body severely.

American Biological Medicine, as practiced and promoted at the Hansa Center for Biological Medicine, in Wichita, Kansas has heavy emphasis on facilitating the efficient removal of these toxins through various therapies, such as Frequency-modulated Low-Level Laser protocols, ST-8 Lymphatic Drainage Therapy, Infrared Saunas, strategic chelating and binding nutritional supplements and homeopathic remedies, and Lymphatic Massage therapy, just to name a few ways to help eliminate this interferance to your body’s ability to completely heal.

Am I Cured or Am I in Remission?

2010-07-06T14:48:00.003-05:00

The answer to this question is pivotal in understanding the different treatment philosophies in the world.

The question is on the mind of every person treated with conventional medicine, “Am I a ticking time bomb?” “Will the hell that I have gone through just come back someday?”

This article will provide you with definitions from medical dictionaries so that you can come to your own answer.

The definition of health, cure, remission, allopathic and biological medicine are pivotal in coming to your answer.

Health:
noun.
1. The overall condition of an organism at a given time.
2. Soundness, especially of body or mind; freedom from disease or abnormality.

Cure:
noun.
1. Restoration of health; recovery from disease.
2. A method or course of medical treatment used to restore health.
3. An agent, such as a drug, that restores health; a remedy.

Remission:
Medicine Abatement or subsiding of the symptoms of a disease.
b. The period during which the symptoms of a disease abate or subside.

Allopathic Medicine:
Pertaining to conventional medical treatment of disease symptoms that uses substances or techniques to oppose or suppress the symptoms.

Biological Medicine: recognizes that all aspects of the body, mind, and spirit must be addressed and brought into optimal integrity before lasting restoration of health can be achieved.

When in remission one is only talking about the suppression of symptoms and therefore the causes remain underneath the medication and the symptoms even if gone for a period of time without medication, has a strong likelihood of returning since the cause was never addressed.

When you take a painkiller for the symptom of chronic headaches, during the period of no pain …you are in remission.

When you take antibiotics for a chronic infection, such as Lyme disease, without addressing the underlying systemic issues that lead to the infection, and because the bacterial overgrowth is indeed a symptom of underlying problems in the body…you are only in remission.

When the symptoms of Multiple Sclerosis are suppressed through drug therapy…you are in remission.

When conventional chemotherapy and radiation destroy cancer cells, and the tumor is only the most evident symptom of systemic problems, without addressing the many causes of the cancerous process…this is remission.

If you have a knife stuck in your leg and you take morpheme and the pain goes away…you are in remission!

When you remove the knife and stitch up the wound and it heals…you are cured.

When all of the various causes and interferences to the optimum integrity and function of the many systems and tissues of the body are removed and the optimum integrity and function of every aspect of the body, mind, and spirit are restored in any named illness…you are cured…the pain goes away, the paralysis reverses, the bacteria become none pathological, the tumor disappears. The symptoms will not return unless you redo the things that set the problem in motion in the first place.

The primary difference between the remedies of Biological Medicine and drugs of Allopathic Medicine is that every remedy is used with the sole purpose of restoring some aspect of dysfunction of the body, which once corrected the remedy can be discontinued. The majority of drugs seek only to suppress symptoms and therefore these drugs must be taken for the remainder of the person’s life.

One of the most disrespected aspects of natural and conventional medicine’s view of the human body and its suffering is that there is little understanding and respect for the wisdom of the body. It is this understanding and wisdom of what problems the body is attempting to adapt to that differentiates the Doctor of Biological Medicine from that of conventional allopathic medical doctors who justify their suppressive treatments by the disappearance of the symptoms in spite of what the body is attempting to overcome, and in spite of the secondary side-effects.

Most of the best Biological Medicine hospitals of Europe and those few Biological Medicine clinics in the United States have completely moved away from the treatment of diseases and have moved to the incredibly huge task of systematically going painstakingly through every issue that can be found in the entire organism of the human.

Biological Medicine seeks to provide the body with the building blocks and corrective bio-information and therapeutics to restore the optimum integrity and function of the entire body, mind, and spirit. From this treatment philosophy the causes and the symptoms of “disease” falls away, and “Health is restored” resulting in cure!

Can Lyme Disease Be Cured?

2010-06-29T14:34:00.003-05:00

The question of whether or not Lyme disease can be cured is a recurring question that is asked every doctor who is faced with a person suffering from the disease.

The term “Cure” is almost taboo in the healing arts profession. No doctor that I know of is willing to say they can cure any illness…especially not Lyme disease.

Before we just say an absolute “No” that Lyme disease is incurable lets see what the best medical dictionaries define the word “Cure” as meaning. After all, these medical dictionaries are the basis of what even the most agnostic doctors hold up as “truth.”

The following are taken from Dorland’s Medical Dictionary and Stedman’s Medical Dictionary.

cure

noun.
1. Restoration of health; recovery from disease.
2. A method or course of medical treatment used to restore health.
3. An agent, such as a drug, that restores health; a remedy.
4. Something that corrects or relieves a harmful or disturbing situation.

Cure
verb.
1. To restore to health.
2. To effect a recovery from: cure a cold.
3. To remove or remedy (something harmful or disturbing): cure an evil.

Reading these definitions one immediately notices that at no time does the word cure mean all the bacteria are gone. A patient of mine said it best on a Lyme forum, “Antibiotics are for killing, not healing.” Now doctors may read this and say the antibiotic “killing” of the bacteria creates healing by eliminating the cause of the disease…but in their own scientific scrutiny does this line of thought hold up to its claims? Not according to the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), the worlds leading, peer-reviewed, medical journal.

Articles in the JAMA encourage doctors to stop treating every suspected infection with antibiotics. This is because international research, which is cited by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, have demonstrated that a doctor will usually prescribe antibiotics for a “routine” sinus, ear, eye, respiratory infection for approximately 7-10 days. What the research found is that even without prescribing antibiotics that the infection was resolved with 7-10 days.

So the medical research and the medical definition of cure show that a “Cure” is not the absence of bacteria. The people experienced a “Restoration of health” without killing all of the bacteria. And yes for those of you who might say the body killed the bacteria via the immune system, this too is not borne out by the medical research that reveals the Strep or whatever bacteria is was is still in the body, only it is now non-pathological.

Can Lyme disease be cured? Before answering that question, possibly the medical dictionaries are not using the same definition as the general public.

According to Dictionary.com:
Cure, noun
1. A means of healing or restoring to health; remedy.
2. A method or course of remedial treatment, as for disease.
3. A successful remedial treatment; restoration to health.
4. A means of correcting or relieving anything that is troublesome or detrimental.

It would appear that everyone agrees that a “Cure” is a condition of the body returning to health. If it is true that “Cure” is a restoration of health and thereby the absence of symptoms, then “Disease” is a loss of health with the onset of symptoms.

Do we suppose that bacteria and viruses are somehow stronger during the winter months? After all, winter is the time of year that people typically get sick the most with infections…of course not. The bacteria and viruses don’t somehow get stronger in wintertime. The human body is weakened by the extreme cold and inactivity, not to mention the mental and emotional fear that has been engrained in us by the media that “We are entering flu season!”

So we see that when the body is optimally healthy we enjoy symptom-free life. When the body is weakened we experience dys-ease.

When a person gets over strep throat they are cured and the symptoms go away without antibiotics within 10 days. Does this mean they will never get strep throat again? Are they a ticking time bomb just waiting to go off? No! If they go to a rock concert and yell and scream, while drinking copious amounts of alcohol, and smoke, then the mucus membranes in the throat will be damaged and the strep bacteria, which were always there even in the healthy throat, create the “strep throat” symptoms again.

“But this is Lyme disease!” I can hear people saying. “But I was completely healthy before I got bitten by a tick!” Of course the bacteria do matter once it has gotten out of control in a person’s body. And no, you were not optimally healthy before you got bitten, even if you were a tri-athlete. No bacteria can thrive in an optimally health human.

In medical “science” it is convenient in a disease like Lyme disease, where the laboratory tests have such a high rate of false-negative tests, that after a course of antibiotics a person is often proclaimed cured, when the follow-up lab tests come back negative. The person with the Lyme disease is left in a perplexing position because often none of their symptoms are gone and their health has definitely not been restored.

This is not good science.

So do I believe that Lyme disease is curable? Yes absolutely, to the degree that your body can be repaired. If your body has been damaged beyond repair by the medicines, by accidents, by surgeries, by radiation, by trauma by any means, it will be limited to that degree.

The restoration of health, “CURE” is the result of facilitating the restoration of the integrity and function of every aspect of the body, mind, and spirit. Every organ, system, tissue, and cell must be restored to optimum integrity all at the same time.

This is the goal of American Biological Medicine, to use the best scientific understanding and to push the natural science as we understand it, beyond the simplistic blood tests, and yes it is simplistic to base health on the presence or absence of bacteria or antibodies present in the blood, to work with the perspective that at no time can or should a doctor harm one part of the body in order to correct another.

When through whatever methods, natural or otherwise, a person experiences a restoration of health, by definiton they are cured.

Lyme Disease: How Do You Know Your Medicine is Working?

2010-06-15T15:59:00.002-05:00

While it is generally agreed by all that Lyme Disease is caused by a spiral-shaped bacteria called Borrelia burgdorferi and several other co-infections, determining what medicine will work for your unique body is far from scientific.

The reality is that as different as you look from any other person on the planet, your internal organs, tissues, and biochemistry is just as unique. It is this uniqueness that causes even aspirin to not work for everyone.

As a matter of fact, the supposed cardiovascular effects we are told that a baby aspirin provides, in reality only works for one-third of the people…sixty-six percent of the people taking aspirin for their heart are getting no effect.

While the effectiveness of aspirin is not our target today, it does demonstrate that what a person pays their doctor for is for the doctor’s best educated guess as to what will work for you.

In the world of Lyme disease, the prevailing medical thought is that one must first and foremost kill all of the bacteria. While clinical experience and laboratory proof have disproven this theory by demonstrating that no one, no matter what treatment regimen, have been found to be completely clear of all the bacteria, even though they may not have had any symptoms for years.

Unfortunately in Lyme disease, if the person being treated feels even worse after having been put on antibiotics, to the doctor this means the patient is taking the correct remedy. If this isn’t the most backward mentality I don’t know what is! The rationale here is that as one kills the bacteria that toxins are released, therefore causing more symptoms.

However, with natural medicine, such as herbal, homeopathic, or nutritional medicine, if the patient feels worse, to their physician it indicates that they are having an allergic reaction to the medicine.

What is a doctor supposed to do? A worsening of a patient’s condition very well could truthfully indicate that the medicine is harmful to the patient or it may be killing bacteria.

A certain number of doctors have decided that it is insufferable to continue the barbaric doling out of medicines haphazardly and they are learning newer ways to test the patient’s compatibility to the medicines before prescribing or recommending them.

As it is, without doing some of these new types of testing, no doctor can know with certainty that you won’t be allergic or sensitive to a medicine until you take it and have a reaction that is documented as one of the drug’s more common side effects.

It is like one of my favorite newspaper cartoons that pictured a doctor prescribing a medicine to a patient and telling him, “Take one of these pills…and if you wake up in the morning, take another!”

Thankfully very eloquent science exists that has led to the development of very sensitive frequency-based tests that can help eliminate some of the guesswork in doctoring.

These tests include Bio-Resonance Scanning (BRS), which is four generations beyond Applied Kinesiology (AK), another is called Autonomic Response Testing (ART), Clinical Kinesiology (CK), and Electro-Dermal Screening (EDS).

Physician training in performing these tests are offered in the post-graduate training that every doctor is required to keep up on in order to maintain their license. The only reason any doctor would opt to learn this unique form of testing is so they can stop the guessing! I guarantee it doesn’t take too many patients dying from the medication a doctor gives them to make the doctor want to learn a better way!

The reality is that the only doctor who will be able to do these unique tests is one who works outside of a hospital, since the hospitals and the hospital insurance companies dictate what their doctors can and cannot do in the way of testing and treatments.

Another attribute of these doctors is that they are unique in that they can swallow their pride with their peers and separate themselves from the pack and admit the system is not working very well.

These tests can help identify with much great accuracy not only if a medicine will cause a problem in the patient…but they can determine the fact before they have even taken the medicine.

The more advanced testing techniques such as BRS and ART can even help determine which medicine is the most effective for the patient, how much is needed, and even go as far as how much will be tolerated, which in sensitive people can help eliminate problems from the need being so great, but the tolerance of the medicine being so low.

If you feel like your doctor is just guessing with your health at your expense, you might want to find one who can think outside the box and is willing to test you with one of these new testing techniques.

Love Me Because I Have Been Through So Much!

2010-06-08T14:07:00.004-05:00

“Okay, so who do you want to be now?” is the question I have asked many people who have come to me for help and healing at the Hansa Center.

This question is motivated by the realization that they are stuck in the drama of their life.

To a large degree they have become the sum total of all the traumas and illnesses they have experienced.

It is interesting how many times after a few weeks of the healing treatments at the Hansa Center I will ask these people how they are feeling on all levels on this day.

And they will reply, “Oh, Dr. Jernigan, if you only knew how much suffering I have had to endure to get to here!”

I ask again, “I understand and heard your story on your first office visit, but how are you doing on THIS day?” “Well”, they reply, “I don’t have any of the symptoms today…but do you understand how much I have suffered, given up, lost, and spent to get here?”

“Yes I can imagine.” “Now if you didn’t have illness to think about every minute of the day, who would you be now?”

“But Dr. Jernigan, what if it comes back?”

“What if it doesn’t?” I respond.

“You are not the sum total of all the crud you have experienced. You must decide to put away the things of the past…and the past is everything prior to this moment…and this moment…”

Every moment we are alive, we get the opportunity to choose who we will be.

Even when pain and illness persist the same question remains, “If pain never went away, then who do I want to be in spite of it…now?”

As a doctor I have been blessed to meet beautiful people who have consciously and purposely decided that they are lovable outside of their pain and suffering…that they can get outside of their past story, taking it off like an old coat, and decide to be completely loving and compassionate and functional in each moment.

These people have taught me that they came to the realization that they could lie around at home feeling despondent and in pain, or they could live life to its fullest…with pain.

They are teachers, and artists, mothers and fathers, engineers and musicians, mechanics and lawyers who to the casual onlooker appear completely normal.

You are lovable.

You can choose now who you want to be now.

The world is full of people who wish they could do something or be something.

Decide now.

Live only within each moment without defining the moment based on any past or future moment.

Pursue joy within each moment. Radiate that joy from your entire being to the world around you.

Tell yourself, “I am not the sum total of all of the trauma I have experienced!

Ask yourself, “Who do I want to be now?” and be that in every moment.

Which is More Powerful…the Body, Mind, or the Spirit?

2010-03-23T11:46:00.003-05:00

A chain is only as strong as its weakest link.

For years I have treated some of the top athletes, top thinkers, top meditators, and top spiritual teachers from all over the world. I found it interesting that each category had succumbed to illness in spite of their prowess in their given area of achievement.

Illness is not just our lot in life!

We look around and see so much illness that it seems inevitable, but I am here to tell you that you were designed to be invincible!

This invincibility is the product of strong links in the chain of our life.

The links in our life are most often thought to be our body, mind, and spirit. This chain of our life can be extended into more links when considering our unity and web of interconnectedness with each other and to links of subtle energy within all dimensions.

The ideal chain of an individual’s life would have no weak links. Many people know they are stronger in one link and gravitate towards using it to manifest whatever is desired. The physically limited person may strive to drive their world through tremendous feats of the mind, and drag the body along as dead weight.

Those who feel they are strongest in the spiritual realm strive to repair the physical body through spiritual means. The physically strong being thinks that if they can just swim more laps, push more weights, or eat healthier that they can fight off illness of the body, mind, and spirit.

A weak link limiting the strength of our experience is often found in the delusion that one link is more powerful than the next. The body, mind, and spirit are interlinked and interdependent. Without integrity of truth, knowledge, and wisdom the mind cannot enable the body to maintain its highest integrity. Without integrity within both the body and the mind effective prayer and meditation on the spiritual level cannot be attained.

It is an impossibility to have a sick body and a perfect mind and spirit. It is impossible for any link in the chain of your life to be weak and live at your highest potential!

While it is true that one can create great things by exerting power through their strongest life link, it is most ideal to strive to bring all aspects of your being into their highest integrity.

When the body, mind, and spirit are all equally strong true miracles can be achieved as there are no limitations or interferences to the power of God to flow in and through you to manifest your highest potential.

This is the goal of all the staff at the Hansa Center for Optimum Health, to enable you to achieve your most optimum integrity within each link of your life chain.

Make the decision today and commit to yourself to break free from your limitations.

If you lived to be 100 years of age what would be your highest achievement?

Are you just a worker bee that can retire after 65 or are you one who never retires from the goal of achieving perfection in each link of your body, mind, and spirit?

It is a journey that can start today and last your entire life and beyond.

It's Not In Your Genes; It's In Your Jeans

2010-03-16T12:22:00.001-05:00

Did you ever wonder why you act the way you do, or why you suffer with certain types of illnesses?

How you act and the physical symptoms you suffer from may have more to do with your ancestors than with your lifestyle.

The theory of epigenetic miasms may explain some of what makes you uniquely prone to the types of problems you experience . This is not “new age” and is not genetic aberrations, but it is more of an epigenetic phenomenon.

An Epigenetic miasm, by definition, is a predisposition, or tendency, of certain psychological and physical problems that are set in motion by illnesses in your family history going back seven generations, or acquired within your own lifetime.

Epigenetic miasms are due to changes in the expression in genes that are not due to underlying changes in the actual DNA sequences.

Epigenetic miasms are not to be confused with genetic abnormalities, such as missing or mutated genes. Epigenetic miasms are more of an energetic and epigenetic abnormality. John Davidson, a researcher and author on bio-energetics, states that, “Miasms are essentially an energy disharmony, disease pattern or imbalance.”

Scientific research dating back over 200 years documents the reality of these epigenetic problems, though the term epigentetics was only coined recently when researchers on the Human Genome Project realized that instead of the expected 200,000+ gene sequences they only found humans have only 25,000. What this means is anyone who is expecting genetic engineers to be able to come up with a cure for every illness can stop waiting. The problems are not to be found in incorrect sequences of genes in most situations. Therefore the term "epigenetics" was coined to explain the energetic phenomenon that expresses through the DNA as opposed to the actual DNA structure be the end all cause of illness.

Epigenetic miasms are usually started by improperly treated illnesses that can go back as far as seven generations of your family tree. In other words, some of the tendencies to problems you have could be the result of illnesses or medications experienced by your great, great, great…grandparents.

For over two hundred years, scientists have been tracking the epigenetic miasms caused by specific illnesses. Today we have immense collections of data outlining what kinds of problems future generations may experience due to different illnesses. Gonorrhea, syphilis, tuberculosis, cancer, and many more, all will generate a specific set of problems unique to the illness when suppressive therapies are used to treat them. Homeopathic texts have pages of symptoms of the body and mind, which are completely predictable in a miasmatically affected family line for each type of miasm.

Antibiotics are a suppressive therapy and, some agree, the major culprit to creating epigenetic miasms. The antibiotics do kill most of the bacteria that cause these different illnesses, but they do nothing to address the damage already done by the bacteria on a physical and bio-electrical level in the patient’s body.

For example, if you find that you have termites in you house, you can call an exterminator to come out and kill the termites. By killing the termites you have eliminated any worsening of the problem; however, you have done nothing to correct the myriad of tunnels through the woodwork of your house. To make matters worse, you now have a very toxic chemical insecticide in your house. The energetic (epigenetic) tunnels and toxins in the body, in a nutshell, are what cause epigenetic miasm to occur.

It can be also likened to using a computer that is infected with a computer virus to build new computers. The new computers will be similarly affected. Epigenetic miasms are very mush like a computer virus in your body's operating system...It doesn't kill you outright. It only corrupts various aspects of your body's operating systems when activated by certain stressors in your life.

How are Epigenetic Miasms Passed from Generation to Generation?

When a girl or boy is born, they carry the family blueprints in their eggs and sperm. These blueprints are being constantly modified. You might say it is an ongoing project that is passed on to each new generation. The husband’s sperm carry the blueprints unique to his family. When combined with the wife’s blueprints, each generation puts in their “two cent’s worth” on how the child should be made. Throughout both sets of blueprints, there are energetic flaws (epigenetic miasm), which went uncorrected out of the ignorance of past allopathic (conventional) doctors.

The union of these blueprints results in a child. This child came to this world created with his or her unique set of blueprints. Let us assume for the sake of demonstration that this is a boy child whose parents properly treated their health and passed on no epigenetic miasms. His blueprints have no flaws. The years go by, and he gets an ear infection, which the parents have treated with antibiotics due to social pressures. Instantly, the blueprints in the little boy’s sperm are modified. His sperm will now create offspring that may have tendencies to similar problems (i.e. ear infections) and the psychological problems unique to the miasm. The boy will live through these minor illnesses.

The boy grows up, and we’ll say he is sexually promiscuous before he is married and catches gonorrhea. Gonorrhea has been identified as the cause of a major type of miasm. Gonorrhea infection, along with the standard treatments, causes major modifications to the blueprints in his the sperm. He later settles down and marries a nice girl. This is where it really gets interesting – keep in mind that the blueprint in the sperm is being modified bio-electrically (or energetically).

Can an Epigenetic Miasm be sexually transmitted?

When the above couple has sexual intercourse, the man’s sperm is deposited within the woman. Research has verified that the sperm are viable from three to five days, so during days the woman is likely forced to integrate some of the miasmatic energy of the sperm! In a bizarre way, the woman becomes linked to that man energetically. This may be some primeval mechanism to ensure the procreation of the species, much like the way many birds and animals mate for life. It may also ensure that miasmatic corruption of blueprints is kept to a minimum (for example, reducing inbreeding problems seen in the breeding of purebred dogs). It is theorized that this may also be one reason why some wives continue to stay with a husband who excessively abuses them physically and emotionally.

Even if this couple never has children, the woman will suffer primarily on a psychological level because of the miasmatic transfer from the husband’s sperm. It is on the psychological level since it is the most vulnerable to energetic change; however, over the course of many years, the woman may experience physical symptoms as well, caused purely by the miasm.

If this couple were to have children, the father’s miasm-damaged blueprint would be passed on to the child, predisposing the child to similar problems and tendencies which, if left untreated, will be passed on for another five generations.

What if a woman has had multiple sex partners?

It appears that males pass on the strongest miasmatic energy, possibly related to ancient texts that mention, “…the sins of the father passed on four generations.” In miasmatic theory, each man’s sperm can adversely affect the woman on a miasmatic level. This may be the scientific preference for monogamous marriage. Having multiple sex partners means that potentially each of the woman’s partners imprinted their miasmatic “garbage” upon the woman and may impact her and her offspring. Theoretically the bond of one woman to one man would be weaker with a person with multiple partners. The epigenetic imprinting of the male sperm to the female may explain how and why many animals mate for life with only one mate.

Like father, like son!

The next time you hear someone say, “I’m just like my Mom, a worrier,” or, “I have my Dad’s hot temper,” or, “Everyone in my family has diabetes,” or, “Everyone in my family dies of cancer,” you can recognize it for what it really is – a miasm running through the family up to seven generations.

Marriage Concerns

I know it is not romantic, but you should be concerned about your potential spouse’s family health history. If nothing else, you and your significant other should be tested and treated for epigenetic miasms before you start a family.

How are Epigenetic Miasms corrected?

The only recognized way to effectively eliminate existing epigenetic miasm is with the proper homeopathic remedy. In the above gonorrhea scenario, the homeopathic nosode called Medorrhinum would be the appropriate remedy. Normally only one to three doses is necessary to remove the miasm from the blueprint. “Energy is never lost, only transformed or relocated and homeopathic cure attempts therefore, to smooth out the disharmony of the miasm, as the basic cause of disease…The release of the entire miasmatic trait would result in a complete cure… If therefore, a miasm is successfully treated, the energy field is re-polarized.”

The best way to avoid acquiring new epigenetic miasm is to combine the proper homeopathic remedies with whatever other treatments you choose. Only a doctor trained in homeopathy, or a professional homeopath trained in the treatment of epigenetic miasm, should address these types of issues.

Fibromyalgia and Low Body Temperature

2010-03-09T13:02:00.003-06:00

There are many theories as to the cause of Fibromyalgia. Some say it is the effects of heavy metal and chemical toxicity. Some say it is chronic infections, while others say it is the side-effects from vaccines and the use of suppressive medicines such as acetaminophen, aspirin, and ibuprofen, still others say it is dysregulated hormones or the effects of emotional trauma.

In this author’s opinion everyone is correct in the same way as the proverbial three blind men describing an elephant from the head, tail, and the side are correct in their description of the elephant, but only from each one’s unique vantage point. However, in Fibromyalgia there is one common overriding finding…low body temperature!

This article deals primarily with the very predictable problems seen in low body temperature and the profound importance of restoring and maintaining normal core body temperature. This is true not just in Fibromyalgia, but in every degenerative disease of our day.

Your core body temperature is the temperature taken under the tongue. When human physiology books refer to the “normal” core body temperature it is presented as a range sometimes listed between 97.0-99.0°F . Understand that the “Normal Range” for temperature or even the normal ranges in blood tests are based upon the average person of our day. That is why “normal” changes periodically, because as our average population continues to get sicker the normal ranges must be adjusted. So in this discussion I am speaking about what is an optimal core body temperature – 98.6-99.6°F.

Much emphasis in conventional medicine is usually placed upon feverish conditions; however, a low body temperature can be a much more sinister condition. Where a fever can be viewed as an active developmental and corrective process of the healthy body, a low body temperature can never be viewed as a normal or healthy condition, nor is it a mechanism for a learning or developmental process in the body.

A low body temperature creates a happy home for viruses and chronic infections, and is a sign of degeneration and gradual cellular death. The problem with a low core temperature is that no effective immune response can be mounted therefore no fever is generated and infections go undetected. The sickest person is one who gets the same infections but never miss a day of work because there is no response by their immunes system, so they have a false sense of wellness as healthier individuals go through healthy fevers and immune responses that may cause them to miss work.

Low body temperature is the plague of the 21st century. People with low body temperature have a weak reaction to even the most ideal medicines and therapies.

As the body’s core temperature decreases all cellular energy also decreases thereby leading to profound and chronic fatigue that is not relieved by sleep.

The effects of low temperature:

The cooperative and collective intelligence of the human organism is short-circuited as the body temperature cools. As a result, all cellular functions decrease. There is a decrease in the production of all hormones, neurotransmitters, and other body chemicals necessary for healthy regulation of energy.

In this mild hypothermia condition there is an increased susceptibility to infectious disease as temperature drops the acidity of the body increases and the normally predominantly negative polarity of the cells become more positively charged.

The colder the body becomes the more prone to depression and other psychological abnormalities and all degenerative illnesses of the body, mind and spirit.

Until the causes of the lowered temperature are addressed and corrected, the best that can be hoped for is only temporary or mild improvement of symptoms and a gradual but steady overall decline in health.

Viruses prefer and promote a cold environment and replicate at a much more rapid rate when the body is cold. Viruses are killed and further replication is impeded by maintaining a warm body. Some bacteria such as Lyme spirochetes also prefer and promote a cold environment and can remain in a chronic state as long as their cold environment is maintained. Therefore, in the interest of the prevention and treatment of any viral, bacterial, or chronic illness, this topic must be understood.

The ultimate body coldness is seen in death. When observing a corpse many clinical gems can be gleaned and correlated to degenerative states of human suffering. In death, the blood and lymph fluid of the body solidify and the body becomes stiff and cold. In the same way many chronic cold illnesses such as cancer, Lyme disease, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, diabetes, and heart disease, we see that the body becomes progressively colder. As the body cools, the electrical oscillations of the fluids in the body slow down and there is a shift in the body’s polarity which promotes infectious microbes and cancer.

We can see the same principle of what happens in the body by observing the same dynamics in a water molecule. When the electrical oscillations of a water molecule slows down it becomes a solid, ice, as we speed up a water molecule’s electrical oscillations it liquefies and ultimately becomes a vapor.

The colder a body becomes, the slower the electrical oscillatory rate and therefore the thicker, more viscous, or syrupy the body fluids become. The more viscous the fluids become the more difficult it is for the body to push the fluids through the body. The lymph fluids that are normally supposed to bathe the outsides of all of your cells become progressively stagnant as it is too thick to move efficiently. Now, consider the fact that just like your skin is constantly dying and flaking off and being replaced, so it is that every cell in your body is in a constant state of dying and being replaced. Only now the cold, syrupy lymph fluid cannot wash the dead cellular debris away. As a result the body becomes a toxic waste dump!

Muscles normally have a high demand for energy. Through contraction and relaxation muscles assist in eliminating their own cellular waste products. In a cold body however, the liquidity of the fluids inside of the muscles is gone, and the muscles cannot move the toxins and cellular debris. The deeper you go into belly or center of the muscle, the colder and more difficult it is to move the toxins. Without normal viscosity of the body fluids, muscular contraction and relaxation grinds to a halt, like an engine with no lubricating oil. The belly of the muscle develops a knot that can be felt when massaging the muscle. This is the knotted, painful, muscle condition commonly known as “trigger points” of Fibromyalgia Syndrome, which is being diagnosed in millions of people every year.

If the low body temperature is allowed to persist and no therapies are applied, even in a palliative manner as in massages to move toxins manually out of the belly of the muscle, the condition follows that of the water molecule. The belly of the muscle, due to the increasing coldness and decreased muscular activity progressively over time reaches the point of zero electrical oscillations at which time the tissue solidifies in a calcified stone in the belly of the muscle.

Interesting research that supports this concept has been performed by Dr. Carolyn McMakin, D.C. using the electro-therapy called microcurrent. The microcurrent is applied through direct contact on these trigger points via vinyl/graphite gloves connected to the microcurrent machine. The trigger points virtually vanish under the gentle touch of the glove when applying the correct electrical frequency. What may be happening here is that the stimulation of the muscle through microcurrent is externally increasing the electrical oscillatory rate of the thickened fluids in the muscle resulting in temporarily restoring the normal liquidity of the fluids allowing the muscles to once again contract and pump out the toxic accumulation. The results are somewhat temporary due to the fact that the underlying condition that created it in our scenario, the overall low body temperature, remains unchanged. However, used in combination with various other corrective measures, this micro current therapy can speed healing in many cases. Relief of Fibromyalgia Through Microcurrent Therapy by John W.

Organ Circuits and low temperature

The body is set up with dedicated electrical circuits all of which are interdependent and interconnected. A circuit in the body has a specific organ, gland, teeth, muscle, and nerves. If anything goes wrong in one of these organ circuits the circuit energy goes down approximately 60% of normal.

The laws of thermodynamics state if we decrease energy we decrease temperature. Due to the interconnectedness of all the circuits, one circuit in the body cannot go down without ultimately affecting the whole.

Therefore, if the muscle is seizing up and becoming progressively rigid and solidified, what do you suppose the organ that is also on that same electrical circuit is doing? It is likely that to some degree it is also progressively seizing up and solidifying.

In the 50,000 miles of blood vessels, the cold thick blood is more difficult to flow through the veins and arteries. Arteriosclerosis, the progressive hardening of the arteries, and the clogging of the blood vessels is manifesting the exact same problem that is being experienced by every tissue in the too cold body. Edema in the extremities is seen as the muscular walls of the blood vessels seize up and can no longer maintain tone and the fluids leaks out of the pores in the vessels.

I look at many older patients, and some not so old, who are experiencing all the signs and symptoms of death in the extremities. They are dying in their extremities first, from the feet and hands up to legs to the torso. To touch their feet is just like touching an icy, stiff, dead corpse. The foot is deathly whitish blue and etched in blue/black blood vessels from devitalized, stagnant blood.

The overcooling of peripheral blood returning from cold legs and feet causes depression of the temperature in the vital organs with slowing of metabolic processes, particularly in the brain and medullary centers. Cotran R.S., Kumar V., Robbins S.L., Robbin’s Pathological Basis of Disease 4th ed. 1989 pp501. Death occurs when a vital organ reaches the point of being too cold.

Your physician can name your disease, he can call it cancer, he can draw your blood and show you everything that is wrong with it, but he is simply describing the process I have just outlined. When the core temperature of the body is cold every organ, gland, and tissue is affected and becomes hypo-functional or may even become hyper, as in the case of hyperthyroidism, in a last ditch effort to compensate for the hypothermic condition of the body.

Hypo-function in the body means that there are fewer hormones, and less of every chemical involved with normal body and brain function. Even the psyche is affected leading to virtually any type of psychological problem, especially depression. How many people are told that they have psychological depression from a deficiency of a certain brain chemical? Many! Can you see that of course they are deficient in “happy” brain chemicals possibly due to the overcooling of the body?

It might be said that you are dying in direct proportion to the coldness of your body. Follow this logic: Cells degenerate and die in direct proportion to the depletion of oxygen. Blood that is overcooled from a cold core temperature is too thick to efficiently carry oxygen and the lung vital capacity is reduced leading to shallow breathing. This means that the oxygen to carbon dioxide exchange rate in the lungs is minimal. Now combine the degenerative effects of the oxygen deprivation and the cold temperature and the fact that all of this and the overgrowth of microbes promote an acidic environment and you have greatly accelerated cellular degeneration and the onset of life-threatening disease.

There is an optimum body temperature is which all chemical reactions in the human body need in order to maintain health...98.6° F. I can honestly say that I rarely see a new patient come into my clinic with a normal body temperature. One 66 year old woman came in as a new patient with a temperature of 94.6! She was in dire straits for certain. She could not feel her feet and to touch her legs was like touching the legs of a corpse, the legs even looked dead and grey, streaked with blue/black veins of stagnant devitalized blood.

In classic hypothermia, as seen in people stranded in blizzards, it is well known that the circulation of blood in the arms and legs is reduced dramatically, almost to zero, in order to provide protection and warmth to the vital organs. These people will also cease to feel cold and will experience numbness, loss of coordination, mental confusion, and heart rhythm problems. It sounds like I am describing many elderly people, and some cancer sufferers doesn’t it?

One way to treat weather related hypothermia is to give the person warm sugar drinks. Sugar is a cheap, fast burning fuel for your body and therefore generates a lot of heat in the process. This may be why so many people suffering from lifestyle induced cold core temperature are plagued with sugar cravings. Many of them consume copious amounts of sugar in the form of soda pops, chocolate, pastries, and various candies. It may be a craving that is driven by the body’s desire to generate fast heat to keep the body functioning. Sugar cravings should diminish as the core body temperature problems are resolved.

Keep in mind that the body has been too cold possibly since birth, due to multi-generational use of suppressive medicines, vaccines, fever-reducers, heavy metal and chemical toxins, and from the consumption of energetically dead food.

The retraining and resetting of the body’s thermostat is just the beginning of healing the body of chronic illnesses. The normal body temperature must be held steady possibly for a year or more in some cases before the body can undo the damage of a lifetime of coldness.

Understanding your Temperature

Everyone can afford a simple thermometer. Track your temperature when you first awaken in the morning, before even getting out of bed. This reflects your core body temperature, when it is not being influenced by what you just ate, drank, or your activity level. Many of you will likely be surprised to see just how cold you already are. This is the result of generations of suppressive therapies and an imbalanced life. You must save yourself.

Many doctors will undoubtedly say that you need to take a thyroid medication to bring up the body temperature; however this is the same mentality of taking a Tylenol for a headache. If you don’t believe me then ask anyone on the prescription thyroid medicines- what happens when they go off of the medication? The body returns immediately to the previous cold, hypo-functional condition.

One should definitely support the normal functioning of the thyroid, by detoxification, organic iodine, adrenal glandular supplements, and nutritional support, but see the coldness for what it really is, a sign of multi-organ system breakdown, and longstanding or even generational imbalance. Besides, it is the hypothalamus that regulates your core body temperature, along with regulating your degree of motivation and sex drive. The hypothalamus is actually “upstream” from your thyroid, helping the pituitary regulate the thyroid.

The healthy body has daily temperature fluctuations (diurnal) with the coolest temperature upon awakening in the morning hours of 6-8 a.m. and the warmest being in the evening between 8-10 p.m. Tracking of the difference between morning and evening temperature should reveal, in a healthy person, a difference of at least 0.9° F (0.5° C). People with a low body temperature and an overall degenerative condition will find that this temperature variation is minimal. Another unusual finding of dysregulated body temperature is that the evening is often colder than the morning reading.

The body’s best chance at long-term healing increases in direct proportion to the restoration of normal body temperature. The effect of even the most perfectly selected medicines is limited by the available energy in the body to correctly utilize those medicines.

You and your healthcare team must address your body from every direction and with every balancing tool available. You can never truly overcome this condition with pills. Therapies must engage and reactivate and stimulate the rhythmical, metabolic, and nerve/sense aspects of your body, addressing the body, mind, and spirit.

Other supporting therapies designed for restoring the rhythms of the body must be applied. These therapies might include color and sound therapy, hot and cold contrast therapy, life-activity planning, breathing and voice therapy, rhythmical massage therapy, curative movement therapies, and indeed every other treatment from your doctor will address in some way the rhythmical aspects of your body.

Low body temperature must be addressed to bring the body back to balance. The temperature must be elevated to end the dying process of the body and to help the body eliminate the cellular debris or the “sludge” in the body.

In Sickness and in Health…Married to Your Doctor!

Plum blossoms covered the trees on the hillside overlooking the house and garden. A warm breeze sent thousands of petals swirling up into the blue sky like a synchronized flight of white butterflies. As the breeze abandoned them aloft the flight broke apart into graceful catchers of sunlight as they drifted down eventually settling in a delicately scented caress on her body as Su Lin lay on her pallet in the garden as part of her prescribed treatment. The physician leaned over her administering his potent tea of carefully selected herbs. He would not be paid on this visit.

The year is 821 B.C. and during the Zhou Dynasty of China the physician only gets paid if you stay healthy.

It had been ten years since Su Lin experienced any symptom at all. She was just ten when her parents hired the physician to teach the family what to do in order to remain healthy. He was just as much a member of their family as her uncle who seemed to only come when he needed something.

As the physician cradled her head in his hand and put the cup to her lips she thought to herself how ageless and wise he seemed. Though there were a few gray hairs in his otherwise black hair, she knew him to be over eighty years of age. Su Lin’s mother had told her that he had taken an oath to teach them how to enjoy the same degree of health as he himself had learned from seven generations of physicians in his family.

The Physician had taught them how to eat different foods at certain times of year, how to maintain strength and agility through their daily exercises, how to view life and maintain control of their emotions and live harmoniously with others, and how to be observant of the body, mind, and spirit and notice the earliest signs that imbalance was imminent and which herbs to add to their teas to avoid symptoms.

Su Lin drank in the warm bitter tea and felt the genuine love and care radiating from the heart of the Physician. That she loved him was unquestioned, he was there much like she knew in her heart that her future husband would be…loving her in sickness and in health.

Sue Lynn gingerly opened the door of her new 2010 Lexus coupe and sat contemplating how best to get out of the car with the least amount of pain. She took a moment to unplug the iPhone which played the music she had turned way up as a distraction to keep her mind off the pain while she drove to the physician’s office. She touched the screen with a wince as the effort caused pain in her finger and wrist just to tap the screen. Her daily planner was what she was looking for at this moment. Since the birth of her third child her boss had forced her to return to work at full schedule, and the family dynamic was hanging from a thread from utter chaotic ruin.

This was the twenty-third physician she had consulted in an effort to determine what was wrong with her. The best anyone had figured out was that she “might have Atypical Lupus,” a best-guess diagnosis given by her conventional medical doctor.

That she was frustrated was a huge understatement. The fancy blood tests and drugs of twenty-two previous doctors had only left her feeling worse. Sue Lynn looked at her sore arm, still black and blue from all of their blood tests and wondered when it would all end. Sue Lynn felt some real fundamental issues were at the core of her life of problems, but who could teach her how to get out of the mess that was her life.

She had graduated top of her class in college, went to church “religiously” but still she knew that major change was needed to get her out of trouble. She felt betrayed, and her life had taken a horrible unforeseen detour through a living hell. She had not seen this coming at all.

From what she had read about this new physician, he was someone who ten years ago when all this started she would never have considered as even credible. Now she would stand on her head and walk around on her hands if it would fix her!

She gimped her way into the healing center, her pride not allowing her to show her true condition. She was dressed smartly in her favorite business clothes, though she had been tempted to wear her worst house clothes and leave off makeup, since so many of the previous doctors had told her “You are too pretty to be as sick as you say you are!” offering her anti-depressants. She wanted to scream at them, “I wouldn’t be depressed if my entire life wasn’t upside down from feeling so bad for so long!”

Sue Lynn could feel a tangible difference in this clinic. The air even seemed lighter and easier to breathe. The way she was greeted was like the staff genuinely wanted her to feel loved. “So this is American Biological Medicine…I like it better already!” She thought.

Although no blood work was ordered the Physician performed many new types of testing that looked odd, but as he tested he actually was able to tell her what her symptoms were before she even told him anything! As the Physician talked to her he looked right into her eyes and she had the feeling that he was truly listening like he had nowhere else he would rather be at that moment than listening to her entire saga from start to finish. He seemed to grab onto things that all the other doctors just blew off.

The heart of the physician was obvious and confident with the kind of grace that comes from years of living in high personal integrity. Sue Lynn thought she had never met any doctor who seemed to understand so much and be able to communicate it in such a way that even her illness damaged brain could understand. His eyes held a confidence and gentleness that seemed to notice everything, like he was reading her entire life by what he observed. His intelligence was evident almost immediately and she began to feel a glimmer of real hope.

Sue Lynn wanted to believe that this unique physician could help her, but his methods were so different from the conventional doctors and blood work that her college-trained brain just couldn’t accept it completely. She would give it a try, she decided, but she would still look for the next thing…after all she has “Atypical Lupus!”

For two weeks Sue Lynn saw the Physician daily for an hour. The hands of the Physician reminded Sue Lynn of the hands of a skilled musician as he dynamically tested and treated her body, mind, and spirit. As he treated her, he taught her the realities of how to balance her mind, emotions, and
all areas of her life.

It was almost too much to take in but she was beginning to understand how blood tests and drugs were so simplistic in comparison to all of this. She spent several hours a day at the clinic on the various therapies and watched selected DVD’s that further taught her how to take charge of every aspect of her life again.

Before coming to the Physician, she had felt like her life was going 70 miles per hour but she was stuck in first gear. Now her body was shifting gears more smoothly in every respect…her brain struggled to let go of the lingering fear of Atypical Lupus and the “what if it doesn’t stick” concept that hung over her like a dark cloud.

Two weeks of a myriad of different treatments came to an end.

It was decision time.

“Do I keep up with this or go back to my conventional medical doctor?”

Before this nothing had even helped her and she knew it…now in just two weeks all but one of her 16 symptoms were at least fifty percent better. A couple symptoms had actually disappeared!

Over the two weeks she had learned many new things that she would still use…but she had been brought up with seven generations of her family doing conventional medicine.

She hadn’t told her family or friends what she was doing.

It was disconcerting to her at the Physician’s calmness when she told him she would not be continuing his treatments even though he had been the only one to help her.

“I talked to my conventional medical doctor and he hasn’t heard of American Biological Medicine.” She told the Physician.

“My doctor goes to my church and delivered my children and I don’t want to upset him.” She went on to say.

“Listen to your body. Your improvements did not come from masking your symptoms.” The Physician implored.

“Only by restoring the optimum function and integrity of your body, mind, and spirit can this much improvement happen this rapidly.”

Sue Lynn understood that her pride alone would prevent her from ever returning to this gentle physician…but she had already essentially married her conventional medical doctor’s beliefs…in sickness and in health…’til death do us part.

The Death of Beautiful People

2010-02-16T15:01:00.004-06:00

Many people make the New Year’s resolution to work out more. While exercising is good and we generally believe that when someone has well-defined muscles and a trim physique that they are healthy, the reality is quite different.

Very muscularly fit people are dying daily because while their muscles are rippling and they have six-pack abs, their organs and glands may be sick!

I have seen very physically beautiful people die a miserable death in just two months due to some illness they never knew they had.

As Dr. Jennifer Allen reported in her illuminating article “Criss Cross Crash Crisis”, seven of every ten people die prematurely in the United States!

It is sad that we have been sold the lie by the media that a beautiful body equals optimum health. I recommend you read Dr. Allen’s article to more fully understand what to do to be one of the three people in ten who live a long health, happy, prosperous, joy-filled life.

While having a fit physical body is definitely better than having a flabby, out of shape body, true health in the long run has very little to do with the “wrapper.” The saying, “Never judge a book by its cover” is true also of the human being.

I would also say, “Don’t judge your health on your good blood test.” We all know of many people who have every blood test known to man and are dying yet the blood tests reveal nothing. You are more than blood and it is not that good a way to determine what it wrong before the problems get out of control.

Thankfully now by using the leading-edge diagnostics and restorative science of American Biological Medicine you can finally find out what is going wrong in your body before it gets so bad that it is incurable and do something about it using techniques and therapies that work to restore your body, mind and spirit through natural means.

Make the resolution to not just be beautiful on the outside…be truly healthy from the inside out!

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Low Body Temperature

2010-01-19T10:24:00.004-06:00

In Chronic Fatigue Syndrome there are many theories as to the cause. Some say it is the effects of heavy metal and chemical toxicity. Some say it is chronic infections, while others say it is the side-effects from vaccines and the use of suppressive medicines such as acetaminophen, aspirin, and ibuprofen, still others say it is dysregulated hormones or the effects of emotional trauma.

It this author’s opinion everyone is correct in the same way as the proverbial three blind men describing an elephant from the head, tail, and the side are correct in each one’s description but only from his unique vantage point. However, in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome there is one common overriding finding…low body temperature!

This article deals primarily with the very predictable problems seen in low body temperature and the profound importance of restoring and maintaining normal core body temperature. This is true not just in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, but in every degenerative disease of our day.

Your core body temperature is the temperature taken under the tongue. When human physiology books refer to the “normal” core body temperature it is presented as a range sometimes listed between 97.0-99.0°F . Understand that the “Normal Range” for temperature or even the normal ranges in blood tests are based upon the average person of our day. That is why “normal” changes periodically, because as our average population continues to get sicker the normal ranges must be adjusted. So in this discussion I am speaking about what is an optimal core body temperature – 98.6-99.6°F.

Much emphasis in conventional medicine is usually placed upon feverish conditions; however, a low body temperature can be a much more sinister condition. Where a fever can be viewed as an active developmental and corrective process of the healthy body, a low body temperature can never be viewed as a normal or healthy condition, nor is it a mechanism for a learning or developmental process in the body.

What may be happening here is that the stimulation of the muscle through microcurrent is externally increasing the electrical oscillatory rate of the thickened fluids in the muscle resulting in temporarily restoring the normal liquidity of the fluids allowing the muscles to once again contract and pump out the toxic accumulation.

The results are somewhat temporary due to the fact that the underlying condition that created it in our scenario, the overall low body temperature, remains unchanged. However, used in combination with various other corrective measures, this microcurrent therapy can speed healing in many cases. Relief of Fibromyalgia Through Microcurrent Therapy by John W.

Organ Circuits and low temperature

The body is set up with dedicated electrical circuits all of which are interdependent and interconnected. A circuit in the body has a specific organ, gland, teeth, muscle, and nerves. If anything goes wrong in one of these organ circuits the circuit energy goes down approximately 60% of normal.

The laws of thermodynamics state if we decrease energy we decrease temperature. Due to the interconnectedness of all the circuits, one circuit in the body cannot go down without ultimately affecting the whole.

Therefore, if the muscle is seizing up and becoming progressively rigid and solidified, what do you suppose the organ that is also on that same electrical circuit is doing? It is likely that to some degree it is also progressively seizing up and solidifying.

In the 50,000 miles of blood vessels, the cold thick blood is more difficult to flow through the veins and arteries. Arteriosclerosis, the progressive hardening of the arteries, and the clogging of the blood vessels is manifesting the exact same problem that is being experienced by every tissue in the too cold body.

Edema in the extremities is seen as the muscular walls of the blood vessels seize up and can no longer maintain tone and the fluids leaks out of the pores in the vessels.

I look at many older patients, and some not so old, who are experiencing all the signs and symptoms of death in the extremities. They are dying in their extremities first, from the feet and hands up to legs to the torso. To touch their feet is just like touching an icy, stiff, dead corpse. The foot is deathly whitish blue and etched in blue/black blood vessels from devitalized, stagnant blood.

The overcooling of peripheral blood returning from cold legs and feet causes depression of the temperature in the vital organs with slowing of metabolic processes, particularly in the brain and medullary centers. Cotran R.S., Kumar V., Robbins S.L., Robbin’s Pathological Basis of Disease 4th ed. 1989 pp501. Death occurs when a vital organ reaches the point of being too cold.

Your physician can name your disease, he can call it cancer, he can draw your blood and show you everything that is wrong with it, but he is simply describing the process I have just outlined. When the core temperature of the body is cold every organ, gland, and tissue is affected and becomes hypo-functional or may even become hyper, as in the case of hyperthyroidism, in a last ditch effort to compensate for the hypothermic condition of the body.

Hypo-function in the body means that there are fewer hormones, and less of every chemical involved with normal body and brain function. Even the psyche is affected leading to virtually any type of psychological problem, especially depression. How many people are told that they have psychological depression from a deficiency of a certain brain chemical?

Many!

Can you see that of course they are deficient in “happy” brain chemicals possibly due to the overcooling of the body?

It might be said that you are dying in direct proportion to the coldness of your body. Follow this logic: Cells degenerate and die in direct proportion to the depletion of oxygen. Blood that is overcooled from a cold core temperature is too thick to efficiently carry oxygen and the lung vital capacity is reduced leading to shallow breathing.

This means that the oxygen to carbon dioxide exchange rate in the lungs is minimal. Now combine the degenerative effects of the oxygen deprivation and the cold temperature and the fact that all of this and the overgrowth of microbes promote an acidic environment and you have greatly accelerated cellular degeneration and the onset of life-threatening disease.

There is an optimum body temperature is which all chemical reactions in the human body need in order to maintain health...98.6° F. I can honestly say that I rarely see a new patient come into my clinic with a normal body temperature. One 66 year old woman came in as a new patient with a temperature of 94.6! She was in dire straits for certain. She could not feel her feet and to touch her legs was like touching the legs of a corpse, the legs even looked dead and grey, streaked with blue/black veins of stagnant devitalized blood.

In classic hypothermia, as seen in people stranded in blizzards, it is well known that the circulation of blood in the arms and legs is reduced dramatically, almost to zero, in order to provide protection and warmth to the vital organs. These people will also cease to feel cold and will experience numbness, loss of coordination, mental confusion, and heart rhythm problems. It sounds like I am describing many elderly people, and some cancer sufferers doesn’t it?

One way to treat weather related hypothermia is to give the person warm sugar drinks. Sugar is a cheap, fast burning fuel for your body and therefore generates a lot of heat in the process. This may be why so many people suffering from lifestyle induced cold core temperature are plagued with sugar cravings.

Many of them consume copious amounts of sugar in the form of soda pops, chocolate, pastries, and various candies. It may be a craving that is driven by the body’s desire to generate fast heat to keep the body functioning. Sugar cravings should diminish as the core body temperature problems are resolved.

Keep in mind that the body has been too cold possibly since birth, due to multi-generational use of suppressive medicines, vaccines, fever-reducers, heavy metal and chemical toxins, and from the consumption of energetically dead food.

The retraining and resetting of the body’s thermostat is just the beginning of healing the body of chronic illnesses. The normal body temperature must be held steady possibly for a year or more in some cases before the body can undo the damage of a lifetime of coldness.

Understanding your Temperature

Everyone can afford a simple thermometer. Track your temperature when you first awaken in the morning, before even getting out of bed. This reflects your core body temperature, when it is not being influenced by what you just ate, drank, or your activity level. Many of you will likely be surprised to see just how cold you already are. This is the result of generations of suppressive therapies and an imbalanced life. You must save yourself.

Many doctors will undoubtedly say that you need to take a thyroid medication to bring up the body temperature; however this is the same mentality of taking a Tylenol for a headache. If you don’t believe me then ask anyone on the prescription thyroid medicines- what happens when they go off of the medication? The body returns immediately to the previous cold, hypo-functional condition.

One should definitely support the normal functioning of the thyroid, by detoxification, organic iodine, adrenal glandular supplements, and nutritional support, but see the coldness for what it really is, a sign of multi-organ system breakdown, and longstanding or even generational imbalance. Besides, it is the hypothalamus that regulates your core body temperature, along with regulating your degree of motivation and sex drive. The hypothalamus is actually “upstream” from your thyroid, helping the pituitary regulate the thyroid.

The healthy body has daily temperature fluctuations (diurnal) with the coolest temperature upon awakening in the morning hours of 6-8 a.m. and the warmest being in the evening between 8-10 p.m. Tracking of the difference between morning and evening temperature should reveal, in a healthy person, a difference of at
least 0.9° F (0.5° C).

People with a low body temperature and an overall degenerative condition will find that this temperature variation is minimal. Another unusual finding of dysregulated body temperature is that the evening is often colder than the morning reading.

The body’s best chance at long-term healing increases in direct proportion to the restoration of normal body temperature. The effect of even the most perfectly selected medicines is limited by the available energy in the body to correctly utilize those medicines.

You and your healthcare team must address your body from every direction and with every balancing tool available. You can never truly overcome this condition with pills. Therapies must engage and reactivate and stimulate the rhythmical, metabolic, and nerve/sense aspects of your body, addressing the body, mind, and spirit.

Other supporting therapies designed for restoring the rhythms of the body must be applied. These therapies might include color and sound therapy, hot and cold contrast therapy, life-activity planning, breathing and voice therapy, rhythmical massage therapy, curative movement therapies, and indeed every other treatment from your doctor will address in some way the rhythmical aspects of your body.

Low body temperature must be addressed to bring the body back to balance. The temperature must be elevated to end the dying process of the body and to help the body eliminate the cellular debris or the “sludge” in the body.

Is This As Good As it Gets?

2009-12-28T16:16:00.004-06:00

I love the line Jack Nicolson says in the movie, “As Good as it Gets” where he tells the woman he is in love with…“You make me want to be a better man!”

The waist length silky blond hair, the perpetually laughing eyes, match perfectly with the slightly mischievous and cute smiling red lips of the energetic and joyful seven year old girl that bounds into my treatment room.

That she is intelligent beyond her years is obvious as she rattles off the memorized carbs, protein, and fats in one slice of three different brands of Ezekial bread. She has had to grow up faster than other girls her own age. She has been diagnosed with Type-1 Diabetes.

She holds herself very bravely in the face of over 2000 needle pricks and insulin shots per year and dutifully passes on opportunities to sneak candy or sweets.

As a doctor practicing American Biological Medicine I know from the research that this form of Diabetes is supposed to be incurable. One research article I found even said that there has never been a cured case.

I ponder her life.

Is this as good as it gets?

She was not born with this malady.

She was fine for years and one day it all changed for unknown reasons.

The initial doctors never stopped to even ask “Why is this happening?”

Like so much of conventional medicine’s answer to collections of symptoms… “We know what to call it…and we know how to manage it…better get used to it, because this is as good as your life is going to get!”

She smiles up at me bravely and even joyfully as she gleefully tells me another joke as I treat her.

She understands American Biological Medicine is striving to help get her body into its most optimum functioning and integrity as possible.

She understands I cannot personally heal even the simplest paper cut. She knows that only her body can correct this problem.

All I can do is the best I can do.

I have grown quite fond of this girl with the indomitable spirit.

I am pushed to go beyond what is accepted. Though I cannot not say it aloud I want to scream...“No! This is not as good as it gets! Not on my shift!”

Like Jack Nicholson’s movie line, I want to tell her, “You make me want to be a better doctor!”

I salute you all who struggle to maintain the quest of restoring your health and life!

Dr. David A. Jernigan

Isn’t It Interesting?

2009-12-16T13:00:00.004-06:00

I find it interesting that over the course of literally tens of thousands of treatments on people that it is so very apparent to me that the restoration of health, no matter what the diagnosis, very often has little to do with blood tests and drugs.

I find it interesting to see that a woman’s cancer went into “spontaneous remission” when the she shifted her point of perspective and was transformed instantly.

I find it interesting to see people who have fought the impulse to be ugly and mean or even being depressed and sad for their entire life find health, joy, and peace after an imbalance in their teeth and jaws was corrected.

I find it interesting to see a person filled with excessive sinus congestion and pneumonia can stand up after one treatment of their spine and breathe clearly with no sign of pneumonia ever again.

I find it interesting when chronic daily headaches for over a year disappeared after a lady stopped chewing gum containing NutraSweet.

I find it interesting that years of many symptoms disappeared in a woman after she quit a highly stressful job in a bank.

I find it interesting that a man’s heart arrhythmia and heart palpitations went away whenever he would take his dentures out.

I find it interesting that when a woman forgave those who injured her in the past, and learned to live the embodiment of love, her chest pain and chronic anxiety disappeared.

I find it interesting that after four and a half months with the inability to walk, a young girl could walk after one hour of treatment once the organ circuits were turned back on.

I find it interesting when a man with a frozen shoulder was instantly restored to strength, mobility, and no pain after the application of an essential oil over his liver.

It is a wonder to me that we give so much credibility to doctor’s concepts of incurable illness, the concept of health through the analysis of blood, and the prophetic prognosis of “just learning to live with your illness.”

I encourage you to not accept that it is just your lot in life to need to take drugs for the rest of your life.

Very few doctors are pushing the limits of knowledge like doctors practicing American Biological Medicine to learn and apply the latest science to not just mask your symptoms but restore your body, mind, and spirit to its most optimum health.

There are no guarantees in healthcare, but I can guarantee you one thing is certain...

If you keep doing the things that you are doing you will keep getting the same results.

If you do something different you just might get better results.

I suggest you give American Biological Medicine a chance to give you a different life.

The Three Bears

2009-11-04T10:30:00.008-06:00

You know the story…Goldie Locks helped herself to the bear’s house and food.

The bears came home. Progressively the Father, Mother, and Baby Bear went through the exasperated and irritable growling about, “Someone has been sitting in my chair…someone has been eating my porridge…someone has been sleeping in my bed!”

In life and healing we often get so very self-centered that we go through our life very conscious and reactive to how unfair and offended we feel by the actions of other people. We are just like the bears!

In our heart we are saying, “Someone was less than we wanted them to be. Someone did something in my space. Someone messed with my sense of security.”

We must learn to get outside of our pseudo-self-love and learn to be less reactive to the many changes in our environment. (Pseudo means that something is not what it appears to be.) In pseudo-self-love one cannot truly have love for themselves when they have no love for others.

Allow, love, and consider others before ourselves.

As you go through the day, observe yourself and your interactions with others as if it was a movie that you are watching. See that you can respond with love, sending joyful emotional energy in the directions of those things that we DO want (T+E+A=M), yet allowing others to flow and move in and around your space.

When faced with situations where others have “Sat in your chair…eaten your porridge…slept in
your bed” remember that you have two choices.

You can respond in anger and with hurt feelings, which only makes you feel more hurt and sick, or you can trust God's perfect plan and relax your heart feelings and expand them to include the other person’s needs and realities.

Choose to absolutely love others without judgment, if for no other reason than this: that I feel happier and healthier when I come from love.

The Fight for Your Life…Flu Vaccine-vs-Optimized You!

2009-10-14T08:00:00.003-05:00

The question of whether I recommend Flu shots and Swine Flu shots have been so frequently asked of our staff that I thought it would be good to visit the topic and tell you our stance on this issue.

I cannot say it strongly enough!

No microbe can replicate out of control in an optimally healthy body!

When you go outside in the winter you can see your breath, like steam coming out of your mouth. This is happening all the time, year round!

So you are breathing in any number of viruses every minute of every day without getting sick!

You are getting “vaccinated” every day by all of the viruses you breathe in and ingest with your food and drinks…without all the formaldehyde and mercury and gene-altering garbage in vaccines. (see the hyperlink below to see what is inside these vaccines)

Is it enough to “boost the immune system”? Not anymore.

The invincibility of the body against viruses has more to do with the overall integrity of every aspect of your body, mind, and spirit than it does with the immune system.

Officially and for the record, I am not a supporter of the Flu vaccinations for anyone! I would recommend that everyone participate in year-round preventive treatments by a doctor trained in American Biological Medicine and Circuit Healing so that the body enjoys optimum health all year long!

Instead of attempting to rehash everything you should know about how crappy the Flu vaccines are I am going to give you a link to Dr. Mercola’s excellent article on the matter: Here

Also, watch the video below.

How to Beat a Virus:

• If you are going to use herbs like Echinacea to boost your immune system, remember that herbal formulas with synergistic combinations of various herbs work better than taking a single herb. We recommend and sell two different Echinacea-type formulas… Echinacom™ and Echinacom-C™ by Energique, Inc. These are good formulas to take for a week and then take two weeks off so that the body doesn’t adapt around their ability to stimulate the immune system.

• Our doctor’s primary “Go-to Formula” when any flu-like symptoms first happen is Virogen™, which is incredibly effective at facilitating and boosting the body’s own energetic fields against a broad spectrum of viruses. If Virogen™ does not seem to kick it then adding or switching to:

• Microbojen™, is possibly the most powerful formula on the planet for providing the energetic information the body needs to repel the broadest number of types of viruses and microbes.

• One of my absolute favorite ways to restore your body’s control over any Flu is to take an Epsom Salt/Hydrogen Peroxide Soaking bath. This bath is cheap and very restorative and relaxing! Use 5 cups of Epsom Salts (Magnesium Sulphate salts) with 64 fluid ounces of 3% Hydrogen Peroxide mixed into a warm bathtub of water. Soak for at least 20 minutes. You can usually get both of these products from the grocery store. You can do this bath two or three times a day if you desire. It is also very good for any aches and pains from any cause.

• Diffusing into the air of your home and workplace therapeutic-grade essential oils of almost any type is one of the most powerful ways to prevent viral infections from getting started in the first place. As you and your children breathe the wonderful fragrances into the body the oil droplets in the air are drawn into the lungs and sinuses. Many oils have been shown to be stronger than any know anti-viral drug on the planet! Use any oil you have, but I like to diffuse the blends of oils made by Young Living Essential Oil company, called RC, Thieves, Citrus Fresh, and during the holiday season I alternate between Christmas Spirit blend and Peace and Calming. RC has a lot of types of Eucalyptus oils and Thyme which are very good for promoting the health of the upper respiratory tract. Thieves’ legendary blend of oils contains the formula found in the judicial archives in England as the blend of oils that ultimately prevented people from even getting the Bubonic plague! University tests have shown this blend to be highly anti-bacterial, and anti-viral. (Call the Hansa Center to purchase one of the best oil diffusers our doctors found up in Vancouver, BC and brought back to the U.S. so that you are not wasting your oils and money!)

• When the days are gray and cloudy get to a good quality tanning bed and “catch some rays!” UVB light from these beds is perfect for converting your cholesterol into pro-Vitamin D! Don’t stay in the tanning bed long enough to even turn pink. Stop before you start to turn pink. Vitamin D is actually a hormone in your body and should not be taken as a pill since it screws up this conversion from Cholesterol to 7-Dehydrocholesterol, ultimately to “Vitamin” D. Keeping your body’s own pro-Vitamin D high is a very important part of staying well this winter.

• I cannot tell you how very important it is to live, eat, and breathe the concepts of living in high integrity within the body, mind, and spirit. You and you alone determine your body’s chemistry. Your hormones, neurotransmitters, and immune system, and energetic defenses are shifting to match your heart’s instructions.

Every post here and on my blog post that I have written has been to teach you how to maintain the output of your heart, in spite of any circumstance, and to teach you how to use your Divine light and love to get more of what you, with great enthusiasm DO want.

You DO want to manifest perfect health and joyful interactions at all times!

Be that everywhere, and in every moment, and you will see everyday miracles of all types.

The “M” Manifestation Step of the T+E+A=M Equation

The "Thoughts" of TEAM
The “Emotion” of T+E+A=M

The "A" Action Step of TEAM

“If you abide in me and my words abide in you,
you can ask what you want and it will be done.” –God

Do you know what builds the power of manifesting using the T+E+A=M equation?

Results!

The more you see the results of manifesting what it is that you want…and indeed even seeing how you sometimes manifest more of what you don’t want, the more you will increase the powerful energy found at the core of believing.

The Action step of the TEAM equation (Thoughts+Emotions+Action=Manifestation)
requires a heart-knowingness (believing) that what you formatted with T+E is already manifesting in the perfection of Divine Synchronicity.

Ideally your believing that you can have what it is that you want should be on the same level as your desire/want.

For example, you may want to manifest 10 million dollars, however you don’t really believe you can manifest that much money (Actually most people cannot believe for money very well, since money itself does not have much inherent power. It is what money provides that holds the most E-Motion)

In the TEAM equation we must leave the question of how that which we desire will come about up to God. Even the master teacher Christ Jesus revealed this same truth when he said that every bit of wisdom he spoke, and everything miraculous he performed was not of his own power but was created by the power of God working in and through him…and he went on to say that the same power works within us!

Our job is to let the desire of our heart be intensely clear and unwavering, powered by our heart-generated energy-in-motion of the joy of already having what it is that you want.

It is no more difficult to manifest something large as something small. Watch what you manifest on the unwanted side of things. At first it may seem easier to see the TEAM equation in full swing in the negative things you manifest. You can see that what seem to be really big problems manifest with as little effort as the small problems. You can see that the equation works equally as effective as long as you play by the rules.

It has been said that “Knowledge is Power.” Be careful what you ask for…you just might get it. Knowledge without wisdom and love results in random and chaotic manifestations.

“God is willing and able to do abundantly above all you can ask or even think to ask.” So in all of your asking during T+E+A=M always believe for “This or Better!”

The “A” Action Step of T+E+A=M

The TEAM Equation
The TEAM Equation on Steriods
The "Thoughts" of TEAM
The “Emotion” of T+E+A=M

“A double-minded man is unstable in all his ways. Let him not think that he will receive anything.”

Most people might agree that the word “Action” by definition indicates that one is actively doing things.

Hear me now!

The Action step of the TEAM equation is walking forward in the complete expectation that what you set forward in T+E is already done and will manifest in perfect timing.

The T+E+A=M (Thoughts+Emotions+Actions=Manifestation) equation is about actively doing less and intending more and playing by the universal laws of Divine light and love in all of your wants.

The action step of the TEAM equation is to walk in the complete expectation that it is done, not hoping it is done, since if we are hoping then we are in a “wait and see” mode, just in case the equation doesn’t work we wont be disappointed.

Believing is superior to hoping in this type situation. Believing is a heart-knowingness that the effect of (T+E) is already done unless we keep changing our mind for what we want!

It is ingrained within our DNA by society to always need to know “how” what we want is going to come to pass. Leave the HOW up to God.

Divine synchronicity of time (past/present/future), people, events, and phenomenon is occurring to achieve the manifestation.

In considering when you will receive that which you with great emotion, want, we cannot perceive time as we have learned to experienced it, as the progressive ticking of a clock and base our expectation of how something will be manifested, based upon only events and people in the here and now but also expand our consciousness to include all time…past, present, and future, and from all dimensions moving dynamically to bring about the manifestation in miraculous fashion!

Avoid putting arbitrary timing and conditions as to when you expect the manifestation. For instance, I had a woman who I spoke with on a phone consultation. She said, “Oh Dr. Jernigan I just don’t understand why God has not answered my prayer to give me a husband. I have been praying for years. I just know that if you would pray for me to get a husband it would happen! But I don’t want a husband until I am completely healthy.”

My response to her was, “Notice that you canceled out the manifestation of your prayer by placing the limits of time and conditions.” I went on to say, “If you knew that you could ask what you want and it would be done, and nothing would be impossible for you…and Divine will is that you have above and beyond all you could ask or even think…then why not pray for your perfect husband who loves you so much that it heals you and he loves you through your illness into health or at least in the most perfect way and in the most perfect timing?”

Action still connotes movement. Action is not a state of being. Action is not sitting on the sofa waiting for your “ship to come in.” Action is a state of moving forward in the expectation that as you move in the direction and do the things necessary to achieve what you want, doors will open and opportunities will present themselves which you will marvel at how easy and fluidly things are occurring.

Men would do well to learn to apply the T+E+A=M more instead of allowing the testosterone to flow, and feeling that they must kick the closed doors open and force their wants into reality.
Remember, we are all running the TEAM equation either purposely or through the default of ignorance and getting more of what we want or more of what we don’t want!

Stay tuned, there is still more to learn in order to effectively utilize the TEAM equation!

The TEAM Equation

The TEAM Equation on Steriods

The "Thoughts" of TEAM

As a man thinks in his heart so is he!

It is said that the heart is the seat of the emotions, and the head is seat of our thoughts. You may recall that thoughts do not have much energy. Thoughts are supercharged with energy by our emotions!

Thoughts are the stuff that dreams are made of…out of the heart comes the passion to bring your dreams to reality.

In Albert Einstein’s famous equation, E=MC2 the “E” represents energy. So think of the emotion as E-Motion = Energy in motion.

In the TEAM equation our thoughts identify what is wanted and our emotions project out from our heart into the world around us, reflecting off of people and situations back at us with support for that which we projected.

That which I project with great emotion (feeling) and with focused intention do want to happen I call for from the world around me.

That which I with great energy in motion and focused attention do not want to happen I also call into my reality!

Now combine the first two steps in the T+E+A=M equation. From the peacefulness of perfect love, hold your good desire/want in supreme focus and do not waver. Now generate the emotional feelings of what it would feel like if you already had your desire.

Feel the powerful light and love flowing from within you out into the universe…this is the Divine grace working in and flowing through you, as you!

Remember the actual work is not coming from your own power. You are simply setting your intention, supercharging it by joyfully accepting it as already done, and then you will add to this Action.

Our condition of “I can have…NOW” in this instant is unquestioned within us…the condition of having just is. We are not hoping, as hoping is not believing. Hope is where you are wanting to believe, such as, “I hope I can do such and such.” Believing is, “I know it is done now!”

In the ideal alignment of that which is wanted with that which is believed, the expectancy of the now-having is provided in perfect timing through Divine synchronicity of when is the most optimum delivery of what is wanted.

It is a developed ability to KNOW that you can change anything within your own reality and have anything within your reality. The emotions of feeling heart-knowingness, and the energy in motion of already having, create the driving power behind every manifestation.

The TEAM Equation
The TEAM Equation on Steriods

In previous blog posts I have sought to provide you with the practical “how to” information necessary in order to literally be transformed in every aspect of your body, mind, and spirit. These posts expand the principles laid forth in the book, Everyday Miracles by God’s Design.

If you truly realize who you are as a Divine being and strongly set your intention, and apply these principles from the purity of Divine light and love working in and through you, “…nothing will be impossible for you…and…nothing by any means will be able to hurt you!”

The TEAM equation is both simple and profoundly powerful. If one listens to the teachings of the top mystical teachers of all ages their message is most often very simple. Usually their message seems too simple to be of great value. God did not promise us tremendous power only to require a Ph.D. in Divinity to achieve mastery. (Definition: A mystic is one who is absolutely focused on a path to perfecting their relationship with God. A mystic is heart centered and love is the driving force.)

I am going to explain the simplicity of each step down over the next few blog posts.

The T+E+A=M Equation
(Thoughts + Emotions + Action = Manifestation)

Thoughts

Delight thyself also in God: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

Thoughts don’t have much energy of their own. We can say any thought without emotion and it has very little life to it. In and of themselves, thoughts are flat and monotone. However, do not get the idea that thoughts don’t have much to do with manifesting. Our thoughts identify what it is that we want. Thoughts establish the intention of our wants.

Our intention/thoughts must not waver if we desire to manifest anything. Imagine how ineffective you would be if your thoughts continually wavered between wanting something, then not wanting it in the next instant, then wanting it but not believing you can have it, then wishing someone would tell you that you can have it, but not trusting them to tell you the truth, then modifying what you want into something less than what you really want in an effort to make it where you really can believe you can have it! This was difficult even to write!

The focused thought of absolutely what we want is imperative to the successful manifesting of what is wanted. The structure of your wants must use only positive phrasing. So rather than thinking something like, “I want for this bad situation not to happen” which sounds positive but is doomed to only manifest more of the bad situation.

A better phrase would be to establish the opposite of what is NOT wanted and say, “I want this good situation or better, under grace in a perfect way for all concerned.

Remember, we can only create in our own reality. So use you time focusing on creating in your own reality and your perceptions of drawing negative interactions, events, and other creations will simply fall away miraculously.

Medicine-Induced Illness

2009-08-15T00:01:00.001-05:00

One of my “All-time” favorite newspaper cartoons pictured a doctor handing a patient a bottle of pills. The caption read, “Take one of these…and if you wake up in the morning, take another!”

All humor aside, I want to pass on a medical truth that very few doctors even realize.

Every medicine’s primary side-effect is also its primary action!

The primary side-effect of an antidepressant is depression and suicidal tendencies. Your insomnia medicine’s primary side-effect is sleeplessness. The same is true for many natural medicines, which is a shocker to many people!

The truth is that even if a medicine is perfect for “curing” what is wrong with you, as it is fixing things in the body eventually you reach the point where the correction is complete and you should discontinue the medicine.

If you continue the remedy beyond the point of completion you literally go through the correction and out the other side and you will start manifesting an energetic “computer virus” that causes many of the same symptoms again.

This is why it is important to treat the cause and not the symptoms. If you treat the symptoms, such as treating pain with a pain-killer, you will be a slave to the pain-killers forever since they really don’t fix anything, and not only that but they will eventually start causing pain!

When you treat the cause, instead of the symptom, then your doctor should be able to test you and eventually find that you can stop the medicine. It has done what it can do and taking more of the medicine will just lead to more symptoms again.

Is it any wonder the world is so messed up and addicted to legal prescription drugs? The more you take them the more you feel you need them!

Computer Viruses and Corrupted Software in the Human Body

2009-08-12T09:36:00.002-05:00

Mr. Smith came into our clinic suffering from daily headaches for 50 years!

When I finally determined cause, it was what I call a “computer virus” that had corrupted the operating software of his body from an adverse reaction to Penicillin fifty years prior.

“How can that be?” he asked in a bewildered voice. “I haven’t taken Penicillin ever since?”

The reality is, I told him, that the energetic shifts the Penicillin caused in your body continued running for all these years like a computer virus. Just like a computer virus does not always “kill” your computer, but simply disrupts some aspect of your computers software, the Penicillin just screwed up the regulation of various aspects of your body.

Once the specific remedy is applied it inputs the “corrective software” which over time enables the body to process differently and shift back to optimum functioning.
After 50 years of suffering, with corrective remedies, Mr. Smith had no more headaches!
If we see the body the way it truly is, it is more like an energetic pond, like a pond of water. In a state of optimum health, this energetic pond is constantly adapting and morphing to all the vibrational changes in its internal and external environment.

When we use natural or conventional medicines it must be understood that each medicine is like throwing a rock into the energetic pond of the body. Even before the medicine begins to dissolve and get absorbed, it’s unique molecular vibrational signature causes an instantaneous ripple effect that spreads throughout the entire body, creating either enhanced or harmful effects.

The reality is that every medicine should be viewed as either inputting corrective software or in the case of harmful drugs or inappropriate natural medicines, as inputting computer viruses.
The simplistic and bio-mechanical view of medications as acting only in a very physical manner is an incomplete story at best.

In our clinical experience at the Hansa Center we have seen patients that have had an adverse drug reaction to a medicine who would go into severe respiratory distress and anxiety when we simply placed the bottle of medicine on their chest! The emitted energetic signature of the drug was enough to cause profound changes in these sensitive individuals.

To understand how a medicine can function like a computer virus or corrective software, I want to remind you of your basic chemistry. Everything in the universe is vibration. The chair, the water molecule, the kidneys, your skin, the medicine are all just different vibrations based upon their unique molecular structure.

Each type of atom has its own number of protons, neutrons, and electrons giving the atom its own unique electromagnetic (vibration) frequency. Hydrogen, for instance has one electron and one proton giving its unique frequency separate from the next element on the periodic table, Helium, which has two electrons and two protons and whose frequency is unique from the next element Lithium, which has three electrons and the protons, and so on.
When we combine atoms we get a molecule. The way the atoms fit together and the type of bonds give each molecule its unique shape, and determine its unique vibrational or energetic signature.

The body is not really as dense/solid as it may seem. It is more like a condensed cloud of energy. The body is more fiber optic than it is chemical and electrical. So when taking medicine, it must be understood in the light of its frequency effects on the body.

If you have had adverse reactions to medications you likely have “computer viruses” screwing up the software of your body.

The only way to effectively antidote these drug-induced problems is by using a little known form of homeopathy, called tautopathy. A tautopathic remedy is a homeopathically potentized remedy made from that medication. The tautopathic remedy is the “corrective software” that rewrites the body’s software so that normal regulation of the body is enabled.
Tautopathy is a very advanced form of treatment and should only be administered by a doctor trained in advanced homeopathy.

Think back to all the medicines you have taken. Even without serious adverse reactions to the medicines, they still could be the cause of any residual problem in the mind or the body!

A wise man once said, “We are destroyed from a lack of knowledge.” Choose your medicine wisely!

The T.E.A.M. Equation

2009-07-25T10:00:00.003-05:00

It was not a new conflict in our house so when Samantha, my oldest child, came to me with her sister Alexis in tow I knew a new tack was required to finally end the problem for good. “Dad, Alexis keeps wearing my clothes!” complained Samantha. “But they were in my drawer!” Alexis, my second born, countered.

I knew what Samantha wanted – she wanted to pull the “Dad card” and have me make Proclamation 10,001 and forbid Alexis to ever wear Samantha’s clothes. Thankfully I was in a good space and had already taught all of my children the T.E.A.M equation (Thoughts + Emotions + Action = Manifestation)

All of my kids know this equation by heart and have seen it work in their lives many times.

I took Samantha to the side and said, “Do you recognize that you are running the T.E.A.M equation for something you don’t want and therefore are getting more of what you don’t want?” I went on, “I know you want me to make Alexis stop wearing your clothes, but I don’t want that police state energy in the house. It doesn’t feel good to me. It definitely won’t feel good to Alexis, and although you may get what you want it is with bad energy.”

Samantha nodded as she listened, a veteran of many family squabbles and disputes, and with a resolute and clear heart went back to her room to figure out how to apply the equation to get what she wanted…a free and clear title to her own clothes.

Many of you parents reading this can come with many alternate lessons to teach your child in this same situation, such as the proverbial lesson of sharing with others – a lesson pounded into us almost from the day we are born. As a teenager soon to be out of the house, I felt the need to teach Samantha a different lesson – that she determines what experiences come into her reality!

A little while later Samantha came into my room beaming with the sweet energy of resolution and just a little pride in how well she ran the T.E.A.M. equation. She said, “I did it! I came up with a great way to phrase my want.” She happily went on, “I ran the equation to say I want Alexis to like her own clothes only!”

“Wow, what a great way to phrase it!” I beamed, proud to see that her want did not contain a don’t want kind of phrasing, such as “I want for Alexis to not wear my clothes,” which still sends energy towards getting more of what is not wanted.
I never will forget that within 24 hours, as Samantha and I stood at the top of the stairs in our house, about to go downstairs, Alexis came joyfully towards us from her room, with a spring in her step and a twinkle in her eye and proclaimed, “Hey I just want you to know that I have decided that I really like my clothes and I am not going to wear any of Samantha’s clothes!”

I looked at Samantha as Alexis went on downstairs and asked, “Did you say anything to her about how you ran the equation?” “No!” replied the shocked and elated Samantha.

Now this may seem trivial to many of you, but it was a great triumph in our house!

What a valuable reminder for Samantha that she can apply the T.E.A.M equation throughout every aspect of her life.

The Report Card of Life

2009-07-18T08:00:00.003-05:00

It can seem harsh to think that every aspect of our life is reporting back to us like grades on a report card as to how well we are doing in living and applying the universal rules governing all that we are creating in our life.

In my early years of elementary, middle, and high school I was not a particularly good student. My report cards definitely reflected this fact. “David, you can do anything you put your mind to, if you would just put your mind to something…anything!” was the common plea of my parents at this time of my life. School and studying didn’t interest me much however and my grades reflected this fact.

Little did I know as a young man that all of life was much like school; there are multiple subjects and the better we learn and apply the rules the better grade or results we will get out of life.

In school, the better you study and understand the lessons, the better grade you get when tested. It seems self-evident that real life, life after school, operates upon specific rules/laws, yet for many years I was not interested in really studying the necessary lessons to learn how to be successful in every aspect of my life.

We all can readily spout off our A,B,C’s and much of the book learning of our school education, yet can we readily spout off the spiritual truths that govern how we are getting everything that we are getting in life?

Our report card of life reveals how well we are doing in our interpersonal relationships, our finances, our spiritual growth, our peace of mind, our joy, our health, our ability to manifest the desires of our heart. I know that many of us are getting A’s or B’s in one or two of these classes, but the rest…

It can be easier to think that the situations of our life are too random and out of our control to ever truly master and get “straight A’s.” Yet many of us partake in self-help seminars, read books on getting better results in various aspects of our life, go to church to learn, and follow mentors in the hope that we can figure out what we missed in the school of life in order to get an A.

We all live life, yet often we wish for someone to write the book titled, “Life for Dummies” because life seems so complex and unfair. The real truths of life are simple. Life does not require a Ph.D., it does however require consistency and accuracy in applying them!

As a doctor practicing natural medicine, people come to me for help for every issue involving the body, mind, and the spirit. The true definition of doctor is not healer, but teacher. So much of the time I am presented with people who will fight to the death to hold onto medicines, ideas, life concepts, unforgiveness, and other self-deprecating thoughts, never realizing that those same issues are what is giving them such bad grades!

Why hold onto beliefs and life concepts that are not working for you? I occasionally say to them “So how is that belief working for you?” just hopefully to open their mind to help them see how that belief is effecting their life.

Do I personally get “Straight A’s” in every aspect of my life now? No, yet I am getting better grades all the time as I study diligently and apply the lessons I have learned.

Life is not made up of random events. Like it or not you are much more in direct control of what experiences you have in your life.
Thankfully your life is not like a Credit Report which tracks all the mistakes and less than perfect times in your past, and limits your choice in the future.

I have written these educational blog posts to inspire you to really understand and consistently apply the life lessons necessary in order to live a happy, healthy, prosperous life.

May this be a bright light unto your path

Everyday Miracles

2009-06-27T08:00:00.008-05:00

The inspiration for this book arose from a sense of knowingness that everyone on the planet needs to be empowered with the knowledge that God’s Word is true and that the latest scientific endeavors are continually reaffirming this fact!

What I know to be true is that as my family, and others with whom we have shared this knowledge, practice the truths laid forth in this book, the miracles are stacking up. From the complete healing of my eleven-year-old daughter’s paralysis of both legs from West Nile Virus, to instantaneously fixing broken computers, printers and automobiles we are finding the “little miracles” are becoming commonplace and too numerous to recall.

Only the “bigger ones” remain in memory – although we thank God for all blessings big and small.

All of us are on a journey that has no end, but with the correct destination, the journey is empowering the farther along we go. Everyday Miracles by God’s Design is not the end all dissertations on how to experience the miraculous,“more than abundant life” promised us by God. It is a guide.

I believe the contents of this book are divinely inspired! I am not a theologian trained in hallowed halls of stone and brick. I am what the Word of God says I am…a worthy Son of God, heir to all that God is and joint-heir with Christ.

Open your mind and heart to what God is saying. I have purposely focused this book on God’s light and love. You will find no “fire and brimstone” because I want and God wants for you to operate in His “perfect love” without fear and without condemnation. If you will walk in the light as God is in the light, a tremendous miracle will happen… all fear will evaporate.

Great efforts were made to accurately interpret throughout this book, based upon the ancient and original text of the Holy Bible, the prior usage of the words, the context of the reference, and most importantly by opening my heart and mind and simply asking God to show me and teach me His truth.

I have provided the scripture references in the body of the text so that you can immediately see that what I am saying is backed up by God’s Word in the Bible.

Each time I read this book, I am overwhelmed by thelig ht of God’s love emanating from the text. It
was never hidden, but the real “how to” of living a miracle filled life is revealed here again in God’s words.

This book is short enough to read virtually every day. I encourage you to work the concepts in this book by purposely and consciously taking it apart piece by piece and meditating on it. Integrate each aspect into every day.

What we know is that God’s Word has a mathematical and scientific precision. To leave out anything is to destroy this precision. As you practice these keys presented herein,you will find that God will develop in you a sense of “knowingness” so you can always know, beyond the ability of your five senses to know, when you are de-powering Him in your life. Cultivate this knowingness and you will know what works and what is required for you to manifest God’s power in your life.

Everyday Miracles by God’s Design is written to and for all, from no particular religious denomination or theology other than being based upon the right-use-ness (right application to righteousness) of God’s Word, referenced through The Holy Bible. It is a path that all can follow who seek to know God better. It is also a guide to reaching our highest level of spiritual achievement (the Greek word, teleioteta), meaning
“perfection,” as spoken of in Mark 6:1 -perfect love.

I am so excited for you! Read it a hundred times if necessary and be empowered with God’s light and love.

I pray that the eyes of your understanding be enlightened and that your heart be empowered with the knowledge to reach ever greater spiritual maturity as a child of God.

May God be glorified in this work.

David A. Jernigan

Learning to Notice

2009-06-13T08:00:00.011-05:00

I definitely receive 10,000 x 10,000 in blessings from God. My life seems to be spent learning to notice the blessings and learning to trust that as I continue to give to others, of my time, love, care, compassion, and service, that all I could ever want and all that I do want is coming to me within each moment.

If we are not observant of blessings within each moment…the joyful journey through life passes unnoticed and uncelebrated…like the ever-changing, scintillating flashes of color and light from the many facets of a well cut diamond ring, which if we are not observant puts on its fiery show, yet is largely unappreciated and lost in the moment amongst the busy-ness of the day.

Blessings pelt us like millions of raindrops as heaven and earth is moved like clockwork in the orchestra of Divine synchronicity to bring about that which we steadfastly hold in the “want chamber” our heart.

The spice of life is tasted in the many flashes of all that is.

Each interaction in our lives is a lesson in developing compassion. Our interactions are the fine grit with which the progressive soul can polish the awareness of its own and other’s Divine nature.

Every life we get to touch and every life that touches us is a lesson and a blessing. I am a better man for having known you, and you, and you!

Dr. David Jernigan

Practicing Joy or Practicing Depression

2009-05-16T13:40:00.005-05:00

I love watching my son enjoying a funny movie. When something is funny to him it doesn’t seem to matter if anyone else in the family is laughing. He will literally roll on the floor in genuine, joyful, belly-laughing!

If you are like most adults, or at least like I was, I would watch the same movie and people watching with me would say, “Hey, You are not laughing!” I would smile and say, “Oh, its funny. I am laughing on the inside.”

Where did our ability to really feel joy go? If you compare the energy of your negative emotions, can you generate the same intensity of energy for the positive emotions, such as joy?

Somewhere along the way to adulthood many of us have lost much of our ability to really feel genuine, high intensity joy.

All our life is practicing and perfecting the personification with which we justify ourselves to the world. I know many of you might say, “Yes, but when I was a child I acted like a child, but now that I am an adult I act like an adult and put away the things of childhood.”

I am not saying you should act “childish.” I am saying we should all practice being “Child-like.”

I met someone, and at times have done the same, whose entire demeanor revealed that he felt completely justified in becoming the personification of dejection and depression. He said to me, “Oh, you can ask anyone, I am usually a really joyful person! But this that and the other happened and everything went wrong.”

I said, “You cannot practice depression and somehow get to happiness and joy!”
Every cell in the human body shifts its chemistry to support the emotions and dominant thoughts you are choosing. You are you own pharmacy, filling every chemical needed to depress you or every chemical to experience joy.

No pill and no drug can overpower the chemicals that the trillions of cells in your body are cranking out to support the condition you are practicing. I guarantee you that the majority of people, if given the right stimulus would completely shift their mood and thereby their chemistry.

You cannot drive your car towards the east coast and somehow end up on the west coast. If you want to experience a genuinely, joy-filled life you must practice joyful actions. How do you practice joy? By laughing out loud, smiling, complimenting others, choosing the path that feels more joyful, playing with children, sitting up straight instead of slouching, walking tall with a spring in your step, your head up, and eyes alert. Be ready for any opportunity to be lighthearted. Practice telling only the joyful events of your life. Get out of the house and interact with other joyful people. Find what activity or occupation that you can be joyful doing and pursue doing it with joy.

I promise you that even if you only fake joyful actions, and you do it long enough, and make it your daily practice to turn your entire personification to embody joy that every cell will be forced to produce the chemicals, hormones, neurotransmitters, and neuropeptides necessary to truly BE joyful!

You can choose now to either practice depression, practice being angry, practice being nervous, or you can choose now to practice loving all, practice being peaceful, practice being kind, practice being the embodiment and personification of all things good.

Here is the true “Stimulus plan” for your prosperity of body, mind, finances, relationships, and spirit… practice and walk in all ways on the joyful path and help others to do the same.

The Spirit of the Virus

2009-05-09T06:08:00.002-05:00

Black death, Plague, Pandemic, Ring around the rosy, 150 million dead, millions more maimed and dying… In the dark ages the Spirit of the Virus was all that existed - a death wind that blew no good. There was no such thing as science; no microscope to give the virus the crystalline form we know today.

However, the Spirit of the Virus lives on today and is breathed to life in its gullible victims. It is know by many names, Swine Flu, Avian Flu, H1N1, SARS, Ebola… The masses slurp in every whisper of news about the impending virus and with crazed minds suspecting every tickle in their throat, every cough of their neighbor. Like the shadows of a setting sun the Spirit of the Virus moves across the landscape enveloping all in its path who beckoned it with their fear.

The Spirit of the Virus is fueled by fear. It knows its victim’s RNA and DNA are crystalline structures much like itself. It needs the transformative negative emotional energy of its victim’s fear to cause the precise shifts in the crystalline genetic expression in order to be incorporated into the crystalline matrix of it victim.

Without fear the trillions of crystalline RNA and DNA fibers that make up the holographic lattice of the human body will not accept and will repel the viral invader with ease.

The Spirit of the Virus causes many to wear “protective” crystal amulets on necklaces and rings, just as the now dusty victims of years gone by did in hopes of shielding themselves from the impending doom. Quartz, diamonds, and gemstones of all shades adorn its victims, who fail to realize the only protection necessary was to walk the joyful path, to walk in the light, and to live in optimum integrity of body, mind, and spirit.

Little did these gem-adorned victims know that their crystals opened portals of entry into their own beautiful crystalline-matrix body for the crystalline viral invader.

Two millennia ago a sage warned, “We are destroyed from a lack of knowledge.” Knowledge of what, we may ask? Are we not in the “Information Age?” Knowledge is power, is it not?

I say, “We are now destroyed from the illusion of having knowledge.”

A pharmaceutical company’s slogan touted “Better health through chemistry!” It seemed to be true for many years. Our chemistry and drugs are not saving us now. The writing is on the wall. The Spirit of the Virus is feeding upon our dependence upon chemistry as we fearfully submit our arms and the arms of our children to the needles for the weaker cousins of the Virus to pre-pave a more gentle entry into our crystalline bodies that are being prepared to become more like them.

A million may fall at thy side and ten million at thy right hand, but no pestilence shall come near your dwelling, nor shall the Spirit of the Virus come near you. Because you have made your driving passion, your highest calling, to becoming the embodiment and personification of God’s love; and have learned the true knowledge of the universal truths; and because you walk in all conditions of unconditional love; and because you know who you are as a Divine spiritual being having a physical experience – no shadow of fear will come upon you.

Your eyes see only Divine perfection in all things. Your ears hear joyful and good news. Your heart and mouth will sing with joyful praise repeating the name of your Creator. You will experience only joyful interactions.

You are a crystalline being of Divine Light and Love. In as much, you are invincible by design. You know who you are and you know what rights that gives you in all dimensions. You are empowered to have above and beyond all that you can ask or think, because of He who restored your correct alignment with your Creator.
Your crystalline RNA and DNA are completely impervious to any negative force. When you consciously and purposely operate in Optimum Health you are a pure beam of light upon which nothing can stick. Only when we allow ourselves to become physical beings does any negative thing begin to stick to us.

No darkness, however intense, can put out the light of even the smallest candle. Be the light that you are! The Spirit of the Virus has no power over you that you don’t give it through fear and ignorance of universal truth!

Effective Natural Precautions for Viruses like Swine Flu H1N1

2009-05-02T03:43:00.002-05:00

It is interesting to watch the media and the government officials shift their story about how contagious and widespread the Swine Flu H1N1 virus is from one day to the next. One minute they are saying how threatening it is then the next how we shouldn't worry.

Should you worry? Yes and no! You can see with the economy already in a critical place that the last thing the government wants is for the "worker bees" to panic and the gross national product go down even more! So the reality of these contagious viruses being a threat to everyone is real.

The reality is that in the same way as we have all seen the "smoke" of our breath on a cold day, that moisture is always being breathed into the air even though we cannot see it on a warm day. Each of us are breathing out waste from our body and passing gas and breathing in the same from other people's body.

Every single thing we touch, from door knobs to pencils and pens to tables and chairs to your shoe strings are contaminated with all manner of bacteria and viruses.

The problem is compounded when we shake hands which puts you in contact with everything that person has touched, their face, their nose...

So all that said, isn't it amazing that so many of us are perfectly healthy in spite of all of the cross contamination that is continually going on? This is because microbes (Bacteria and viruses) are not the full story. Just having a virus in your body does not mean you will get sick.

A healthy body, mind, and spirit is naturally impervious to any infection.

Prevention is the key!

The follow points are the primary issues that must be addressed:

Maintain cleanliness of your hands - Nothing does this better than NanoDerm Lotion! It is a non-toxic, natural product that creates a greaseless, odorless, hypoallergenic barrier on your hands like invisible gloves. It lasts eight hours and actually kills the MRSA strains of Staph infections as well as viruses that come in contact with your skin. You cannot stop touching things, but this gives you the confidence beyond washing your hands that you are safe to touch anything! NanoDerm lotion will not wash off even with aggressive hand washing.

Control Air Quality - The best way to do this in an office space, home, or car is to diffuse therapeutic-grade essential oils into the air. I recommend using the purest grade of oils you can find, such as Young Living Oils (available at Hansa Center just call us). The best oils would be the proprietary blends of oils by YLO called R/C, Thieve's blend, Egyptian Gold, Exodus II blend, and Transformation blend. Single oils might include Lemon, Thyme, Eucalyptus, Palo Santo, or Idaho Balsam Fir oil. These oils will kill microbes on contact in the air and when you breath the diffused oils into your lungs it kills the bugs in your body as well with no toxicity to normal tissue...something you cannot say about any over-the-counter spray disinfectants. If you wear a mask to work then adding a few drops of these essential oils to the mask will increase your protection dramatically!

Keep the surfaces of your space clean - I recommend using the Young Living Oil essential oil spray Thieve's Disinfectant for any surface you want to be clean.

How can WE at Hansa Center Help YOU?

2009-04-11T08:00:00.001-05:00

We are here to help YOUR body get to & stay in its most optimum state. All of the blog posts & interviews in the past & that will be posted in the future are to help inform you how to achieve optimum health in body, mind & spirit.

Of course, having done this for 14 years, treating thousands of people from all over the world, I've heard some of the same questions over & over.

Here are a few of them with answers:

What is unique about Hansa Center?
We use testing that allows us to determine sources of imbalance instead of just symptoms, so we can custom tailor a treatment program to fit your body’s very specific needs. We believe that God created the body to heal itself, and we give it the tools it needs to restore balance and rid itself of illness.

Have you helped people like me?
We have helped people with nearly every condition, from rare chronic diseases to maintenance care. We do not specialize in any one illness, but instead we facilitate balance in the body as a whole.

What is your success rate?
Our doctors usually expect that patients begin to see improvement in some areas within the first two days of treatment, and usually in many areas within two weeks. They also coach patients on lifestyle, mindset, and spiritual components of health and healing, and provide strategies for continuing to maintain whole-person health after your treatment program is over.

Will I feel worse before I feel better?
Removing toxins from the body does not have to make your symptoms worse. Since our testing and treatments allow us to balance the body as it heals, patients do not experience difficult reactions as you may have felt with many other treatment programs.

Why come for two weeks?
It has taken your body a long time to get sick. Our doctors use a two week program of concentrated treatments to get the body jump-started back towards healing.

What will I do in the clinic for two weeks?
Patients visit Hansa Center every weekday and spend 4-5 hours in the clinic. This usually includes a 60-75 minute office visit with one of our doctors, using therapies to aid in removing toxins and building the immune system, and taking supplements tested for your body by the doctors. Every case is unique so this varies for each patient somewhat.

Where should I stay in Wichita?
Most patients stay at CrestHill Suites, http://www.cresthillsuites.com/. This hotel provides many amenities and extras and gives a special rate to our patients.

How much does it cost?
Your treatment program will vary depending on your body’s needs. We estimate that patients spend $700-900 per day during the two week program. More details on this are in our New Patient Packet. (Contact our office for this: info@hansacenter.com)

What payment methods are available?
Payment is due at the time of service. We accept checks, cash, and major credit cards – Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express.Do you accept insurance?
Upon request, we can provide you with codes to file to your insurance for reimbursement. Our New Patient Packet contains a reference sheet so that you may ask your insurance company about coverage before coming if you wish.

Will I need to return after the initial two week program?
This will be decided by the patient and doctors together, but often the doctors recommend that patients return 4-8 weeks after their initial program for a week of follow-up care. Phone consultations with a doctor are also available for follow-up.

Can you give me advice over the phone so I don’t have to come to the clinic?
Our doctors are available to make recommendations in a phone consultation, however, what they can do over the phone is very limited compared to coming in for treatment. To schedule a consultation, we need some case history forms completed and a credit card on file. Consultations are billed $100 for a 30 minute call. Call our office to schedule.

Is there a written protocol I can follow at home?
The Perfect-7 Treatment and Detoxification Protocol® is our best recommendation for at-home treatment. Read it in Dr. Jernigan’s book, Beating Lyme Disease 2nd Edition: Living the Good Life in Spite of Lyme, which you may purchase on our site here.

I’m ready to come for treatment. What next?
Call our office to schedule your program! 316-686-5900 You will be asked for a $350 deposit to reserve your appointments, and we will send you a New Patient Packet with further details and case history forms to complete.

We can help with other questions you may have as well.

So there you are....a brief overview of the "nuts & bolts" of coming into seeing us so that we can help you obtain your most optimum health.

To Your Health!

2009-04-08T10:11:00.006-05:00

I have a saying that came to me one day that I want to share with you. “The heart of the wise knows the way by heart.” Research has demonstrated that the heart is generating the command signals to the DNA, that the heart has a brain of its own, and that the heart knows the truth of all things 5-10 seconds before the head brain can even process what it is sensing. The Biblical truth which says, “As a man thinks in his heart, so is he…,” or so does he manifest, reflects this research!

From past posts you have heard me say that in all aspects of life we are all manifesting the truths written on our hearts. I have written about how the heart generates over 95% of the energy production of the body. Scientist have determined that the heart fields project potentially infinitely out from your body.

You have heard me say energy goes where you focus, that every thought is every cell’s command to make that thought come true by shifting its chemistry and energy, that from your heart you absolutely project energy into the world drawing to you that which you greatly want or what you greatly don’t want without fail.

Recall now that the heart cannot lie about what it believes is true as demonstrated with polygraph machines, that we must guard your heart with great diligence as to what you put there as truth, that sincerity is no guarantee of truth, that the boundaries and limitations of the boxes of our reality are outlined by everything that we have correctly and/or incorrectly identified as truth.

We talked about that in the quest for optimum health that no pill will rewrite your heart truths or bypass the need to ask forgiveness, forgive, and express true love, and thankfulness to yourself and others.

Another ancient truth says, “The heart of the wise teaches the mouth, and brings understanding to the lips.” I ask you now. If your heart knows the truth of all things before your head concerning every aspect of a joyful life and optimum health, doesn’t it make sense that we should be learning to rewrite any untrue “truths” we may have in our heart, and consciously and purposely use our heart more as we go through each moment of our life?

If you feel lost in life, in any respect, I encourage you re-read the three posts called “The Keys to Optimum Health.” Make the commitment to yourself to heal your body, mind, and spirit. From optimum health follow the path of joy for all of life’s decisions. Fill your heart with knowledge and truth…and your wise heart will know the way by heart!

When Positive Affirmations Are Not So Positive!

2009-04-01T09:10:00.001-05:00

It may come as a surprise to many when I tell you that “Positive Affirmations” are not all they are cracked up to be! Now before you go running and screaming that I am out of my mind, let me explain.

Consider the standard “Lie-Detector Test” or Polygraph Machine for a moment. Since the mouth can say anything that the brain can think the Polygraph machine is detecting the disharmony that occurs between the head brain and the heart brain.

That is right! I said “Heart Brain.” Yes, according to the latest science the heart has a brain of its own that knows the truth of virtually everything, 5-10 seconds before your Head brain can even begin to process what it is perceiving!

So while the mouth (Head brain) can say anything, truth or lie, the Heart brain cannot lie…ever!

Now let’s go back to the Positive Affirmations. What do you think the result of a Polygraph test would be when someone says a positive affirmation that they want to be true, but isn’t really true for them yet? You guessed it; the needle will squiggle on the Polygraph and register your positive affirmation as a lie!

So what? You might be saying. Well I will tell you what. The squiggle of the needle reflects the disharmony that is occurring when the head and heart do not agree. Every cell in the body malfunctions momentarily when we lie…even about something we want to be true! Every muscle in the body momentarily weakens with the untrue statement. Every organ momentarily weakens, as does every aspect of your body, mind, and spirit!

This reality is what I feel is missing in many of the great teachings. The universal truths and scripture are greatly celebrated and memorized, yet if one does not move them from simple “Head knowledge” to transformative “Heart knowledge” then irritation between the body, mind, and spirit is set up! One can speak their positive affirmations repeatedly until the cows come home, and all they are doing is wreaking havoc in their life.

Memorization of truths and powerful statements of affirmation is powerless without moving them into heart knowingness! When you move concepts from simple head knowledge to heart knowledge it becomes knowledge you own, it literally shapes you and transforms into powerful miraculous creative energy.
So when you want to stop just irritating your body, mind, and spirit with repeating positive affirmations you don’t believe, truly meditate on each affirmation without moving on to the next until you KNOW it is true in the same way you know your name, in the same way you know and recognize your own hand when you look at it as “My hand.”

Many people have heart truths such as “My name is _____ and I am a worrier…It’s who I am!” Another example is “This is my good leg and this is my bad leg!” Negative affirmations or “negative heart truths” are the snare that prevents you from moving forward towards greater maturity and prosperity on all levels.

Fully-realized, negative affirmations are just as true to you and perpetuate that which you affirm, as any fully-realized, positive affirmations!

Be transformed by the renewing of your head and heart mind. Guard your heart with all diligence for out of it comes all the issues of life! Meditate, deeply contemplate from every angle and walk your truths until you own them on the heart-level. You must get your Positive Affirmations to be really true for you; otherwise they are just words…just a lie!

The One-on-One Relationship with Yourself

2009-03-28T01:00:00.002-05:00

In all of my blog posts I have presented ways to see how we contribute to our reality (joy or illness, prosperity or poverty) through practical applications. Each blog presents principles based upon a solid understanding how the body, mind, and spirit are interconnected and interdependent.

Each post is building upon the previous posts to form a complete picture and understanding of how powerful you are already, either knowingly or unknowingly applying what I call Universal Truths.

Virtually no universal law is more important than understanding that what we think and feel immediately and dynamically changes our body’s chemistry. Every thought you think and every emotion you feel is every cell’s command to shift its chemistry to support the thought or emotion!

This is why if a lion walks into the room, every cell instantly changes its chemistry to enable you to either fight the lion or run away!

In past posts I have talked about how you can deal with the reactions of other people, but there is one person you talk to more than anyone else, and one person you get all emotional with more than anyone else…

YOURSELF!

You are in a one-on-one relationship with yourself.

If you want to do a real workshop for self-improvement then listen to the dialog you have with your self in each moment of the day!

If you could have a transcript made of the thoughts, emotions, and imaginary conversations you had with yourself and others throughout the day, how would it read?

What if everyone could hear what you were thinking and feeling?

Might you more consciously guard your heart and mind?

The fact is ANYONE who is “energetically listening” DOES have insight into what you are thinking and feeling!

Now consider the types of chemicals your thoughts are causing your cells to create, especially when you have great emotion (e-motion = energy in motion!) about the thoughts, since the energy behind the thoughts is what drives the chemical reactions!

When you purposely and consciously shift your inner-talk to, as the bible states:
Whatsoever things are true,
whatsoever things are honest,
whatsoever things are just,
whatsoever things are pure,
whatsoever things are lovely,
whatsoever things are of good report;
if there be any virtue,
and if there be any praise,
think on these things.

Do only this and your body’s chemistry will support health and prosperity on all levels.

Be That Everywhere!

2009-03-21T02:00:00.005-05:00

For over fourteen years I have spent most of my non-sleeping time standing treating and teaching from behind the same treatment table, in the same treatment room, in the same clinic.

For many years I called it my “God-Space” since it felt like the place where I walked most closely with the Divine.

Many miraculous events had taken place in that one treatment room. So many new truths came to me as I opened my mouth and “streamed” God-consciousness, teaching others how to shift their illness-ridden realities to healthier ways of thinking, feeling, and operating in life so that they can liberate themselves and gain the quality of life they sought.

In my mind, I walked closest to God in this God-space.

From the time I started with the first patient to the very last patient of the day I was lit up and energized, indeed many times healed, myself, as I worked within this high energy space. When working from a heart of love, instead of from ego, I was virtually tireless.

So when I proudly proclaimed over four years ago to the new doctor I had just hired, that this was my “All Power Room!” she, without batting an eye, responded with “No! Be that everywhere!” At first I was a little defensive because, after all, I was the “senior doctor!"

Many people may tell you the same message; however there may be a certain time in your life when it will resonate.

"Be that everywhere!”

I thought deeply about it and realized that although I was definitely in my God-space within my treatment room, at the end of the day it was like a coat that I would take off and hang in the corner. Only then would I give myself permission to be tired. I had been lit up all day right up to the last patient, but my family never got to see me shine and be energetically walking on a spiritual high. I was tired, and “I gave at the office!”

Over the last four years I have never forgotten those three simple words. I have expanded my God-space to all areas of my life and the benefits have been immeasurable.

You can achieve it and I can tell you from experience that even if you only can do it for part of the time, it feels great and life is so much more enjoyable!
