Natural means derived from nature, in harmony with nature, or occurring in nature. Perhaps Thomas Edison best captured the essence of nature when he said, “Until man duplicates a blade of grass, nature can laugh at his so-called scientific knowledge. It’s obvious we don’t know one millionth of one percent about anything.” Owing to its beauty, evidence of supreme intelligence, divine order, and creative genius, nature is the place where we can become grounded in thoughts and heart. Nature gives us a glimpse of the following foundational precepts:
Divergent thoughts have brought about changing systems of health care throughout history. Each time period has given birth to individuals who break free from the common mold of thinking of their day. For example, during the Renaissance in the fifteenth century,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Paracelsus disagreed with the accepted Galen and Aristotle teachings. He
The concept of natural health has been more common to cultures embracing Ayurveda or Chinese medicine, where empirical knowledge has been gathered over the millenniums using herbs and foods as medicines, along with body work, to support the healing processes. In the Western world, there were empiric herbalists, homeopaths, traditional naturopaths, and other practitioners who lost their familiarity to the general populace as allopathic medicine emerged in a changing political climate. Medical societies were restructured to embrace pharmaceuticals at the close of the nineteenth and in the early twentieth centuries.
When the topic of natural health is brought up in conversation, some individuals have preconceived notions and associate it with what they know about modern medicine. Thus they consider it to be the taking of a supplement instead of a drug. Others immediately think of vegetarianism with hippie food faddists nibbling on nuts, berries, and birdseed. Still others acknowledge alternative practitioners such as herbalists,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], naturopaths, chiropractors, and acupuncturists.
Health, the second word, means the absence of disease, possessing vitality or wellness. Since there is no disease in health, disease management is not a health-building process. Natural health requires one to work on building and achieving optimal health. The individual must make appropriate lifestyle changes to address the causes of imbalances such as poor diet, toxic exposures, lack of sleep, poor elimination, and so on.
To qualify natural health, it is important to understand from the onset that natural health and modern medicine are very different systems of health and healing. The medical system is concerned with symptom suppression, naming or finding a disease and then effecting a cure through the intervention of drugs and/or surgery. Natural health, on the other hand, recognizes that the body heals itself by wondrous design. Rather than immediate surgical removal of a diseased organ, the body is allowed to use its innate intelligence to bring about a cure. To assist this process,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], nature-provided raw materials and proven therapies are incorporated that do not interfere with or overtake the healing. This healing concept is easily understood by looking individually at the two words in its name.
1. Universal laws exist to which we must adhere.
2. One senses an awesome Designer when looking into the expansive universe or within the human body itself.
3. The human body is continually trying to heal itself.
4. Mankind benefits by practicing healthy living principles.
5. Nature provides therapeutic complements to the healing capacity within.
6. To see positive changes, causes of imbalances must be addressed; these may exist on a physical, emotional, and spiritual level.
7. Natural healing is long lasting since the body must do the work.
8. Health must encompass a holistic view, respecting the biodiversity, ecosystems, and harmonious balance within the human body itself.
9. Health requires stewardship of this planet.
10. We have an obligation to enlighten others of these precepts.
