IF YOU CHANGE THE WAY YOU THINK ABOUT SYMPTOMS, IT CAN CHANGE YOUR ENTIRE OUTLOOK ON HEALTH AND HEALING!
Let's look at 3 common symptoms:
COUGH
FEVER
INFLAMMATION
First let's look at what mainstream medicine typically tells you to do with these 3 (acute not chronic) symptoms:
COUGH - take a cough suppressant
FEVER - take a fever reducer
INFLAMMATION - take an anti-inflammatory
Goal = help you "feel" better by suppressing symptoms.
Now let's look at what your body is attempting to do with these 3 symptoms:
COUGH - Your body is trying to get rid of something that is irritating it. This is a protective measure by your body.
FEVER - your body raises its temperature to kill off bacteria and viruses.
INFLAMMATION - your body is attempting to heal from an injury or infection through an immune response.
GOAL = Allow your body to heal in the short term naturally the way it was intended which in turn keeps it healthier and allows it to heal better in the long term.
NOW LET'S DO A LITTLE CRITICAL THINKING:
If those 3 symptoms are all there to help your body heal from an acute injury, infection, etc. and you suppress those symptoms, do you think that might suppress your body's ability to heal?
The logical AND scientific answer is, YES!
The next time your body is expressing acute (not chronic) symptoms you get to choose whether or not you want to "feel" better by sacrificing your body's ability to heal OR do you want your body to do what it was designed by God to do and allow it to express symptoms so you can properly heal?
