In school, I was one of those kids that studied just enough to pass, but not enough to excel. I was content with being a “B” student. I never really got the point of school, most of the stuff I was taking bored the hell out of me. That does not mean, I was not studying or learning. I always would drift into topics and subjects that had nothing to do with the course curriculum. You could say I was a straight A, non-matriculating student in my own university.
The most valuable knowledge, that I have acquired in life has been a direct result of a problem or obstacle that I wanted to overcome personally. Pain has been the touchstone of growth whether physical, mental or emotional. I have been challenged on all levels, I never had it easy. I never got the girl or was the most popular guy or was a joiner of any kind. Today, I realize that all my troubles had been my greatest assets and have been the fuel to drive my life forward in an incredibly creative and passionate way. “That which does not kill us, makes us stronger”, as Nietzsche said. Nietzsche experienced pain on a very visceral level as he was in a constant state of physical pain.
I experienced massive physical pain in high school as a competitive runner. I started running at 12, when my father joined the running craze in the 70’s sparked by Frank Shorter, who won the 1972 Olympic marathon unexpectantly. I would run local 5 mile and 10K runs and experienced enough success, where I set high expectations for myself as a competitive athlete. I did come from a fairly athletic family; my grandfather actually held the American record in the long jump in the 20’s. He was slated to run in the 1924 Paris Olympics before he was mysteriously kicked off the Olympic team for reasons my father never explained.
In 10th grade, I was the best runner in my high school at cross country, subsequently I set my goal on winning the state championship by Senior year. In the winter of my sophomore year, I started to experience pain in both of my knees, my response was to run through it and ignore the pain. The more I ran, the worse the pain became, it got to the point that I was hobbling around school like a cripple. My progress as an athlete began to regress, I altered my form to compensate for the pain.
This is when I began the search to fix the problem, originally I thought I had shin splints, a typical overuse injury from running on roads and long downhill runs. I began with traditional MD’s, orthopedists, podiatrists, in all total, I went through 12 doctors before I found a solution with a chiropractor who specialized in homeopathy and kinesiology. The solution was simply the addition of Vitamin F and calcium lactate. If I took these sustances in high enough dosages the pain in my legs went away. During the search for the solution, I did a lot of reading on chronic pain conditions and would rigorously question all of the doctors on why they were implementing a particular course of treatment. At the time, I was 17 years old and did not realize that most other people did not think the same way.
The experience of successfully solving my chronic pain syndrome at 18, left a positive imprint in my life later for choosing alternative medicine as a career. It also showed me that there are always solutions out there, with the application of a forceful will and expert knowledge.
Today, the goal is not to become the great Olympic athlete, that never happened for a whole slew of reasons; which I may delve into a later date, but the quest for Physical Immortality. Aging in my opinion is simply disease, it is an accumulation of incorrect choices in the areas of food intake, lifestyle choices, mental thought patterns and emotional trauma. To the degree that I have made poor choices is the degree that I have accumulated the effects of aging. Now most people including myself believe that aging is inevitable. That is part of the problem, how to break through the mass consciousness belief that one does not have to die on schedule.
One of the keys in found in the Placebo effect. “A placebo (Latin for “I shall please”) is a pharmacologically inert substance (such as saline solution or a starch tablet) that produces an effect similar to what would be expected of a pharmacologically active substance.” …”The idea of the placebo in modern times originated with H. K. Beecher. He evaluated 15 clinical trials concerned with different diseases and found that 35% of 1,082 patients were satisfactorily relieved by a placebo alone (“The Powerful Placebo,” 1955). Other studies have since calculated the placebo effect as being even greater than Beecher claimed. For example, studies have shown that placebos are effective in 50 or 60 percent of subjects with certain conditions.”
What is trully not understood with the Placebo effect is that all of reality is just a set of changeable belief systems. What I believe is a sum-total of effects, not what I think I believe. So, if I am aging, I do not trully believe that Aging is just a belief system, I take it as an absolute and immutable truth. The subsequent response is that I continue with behaviours that re-inforce the belief that Death is in-evitable such as a poor diet, even though there are numerous examples of individuals that have conquered Death to a greater or lesser degree and lived a full and robust life beyond the 120 year limit, that Science likes to espouse.
If the law of Thermodynamics is false then why do you think that there is an Age limit? Why for that matter do you believe in a speed limit? Is this an absolute truth or just a belief system that is being imposed upon you?
In the second part of this newsletter, I will talk about empowering practices to overcome the belief in Aging and Death.
