Sometimes I feel so tired and bored of the Me as a subject of conversation or thought. I don’t want to think about myself, feel what I feel or reflect on how or what I do. When I get that signal from myself to myself, I know that it is time to meditate on non-judgment, and observe to understand, not to accuse or make (me) wrong. That’s when I feel “Oneness”, and it is a state of mindful bliss. I can get there by studying, or connecting with my friends and family around the world. The best for me is to work for a good cause or charity, or to help others. I simply need to get out of myself, and I find it extremely healthy and mind detoxing.
Mother Teresa, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, Mandela, ML King, Gandhi, Alfred Nobel, they all expressed it in one way or another. It’s healthy to find a way to understand and help others but without sacrificing! Where that limit is, we only know ourselves. There is a distinct difference between sacrificing and helping. We definitely feel well when we dedicate a lot of time to others, when we see others as part of us. When we feel that understanding, supporting, caring and loving others, is loving ourselves too. That’s when there is no “limit” to love, that’s when more generates more. That’s when it is healing and probably the quickest and best way to heal too.
I don’t think it is a coincidence that people famous for their community work are often healthy and live to an old age (even if they don’t have what we would call a healthy lifestyle). Mother Teresa is a good example and many more with her. When we sometimes “get stuck” in ourselves we analyze ourselves relative to others, that’s when we sooner or later fall into judging. Judging is always based on separation, alienation and the thinking of them versus us, me versus you, making ourselves or others wrong. In the judging oneness can’t exist. Judgment is not staying in the observation to understand, it is crossing the fine line to “accusing”. Judgment is negative, understanding is positive. Against ourselves, others and all there is. I know it’s tricky to not pass this fine line, but there are a few good ways to mind detox here, thought in many different ways, so more on this soon.

Naturopaths who deeply believe Natural Immunity is still the best, and therefore we work in defense of it.
Since 20+ years we have successfully been consultants in the natural health sector to support individuals and we are in particular working with entrepreneurs and professionals. Our mission is to defend natural health, the only one that really works so far. We mainly but not entirely use Eastern philosophy such as Ayurveda, TCM, Yoga, Thai chi, Falun Gong, and only honest modern science.
Everyone can heal naturally, it's what bodies and (free) minds want. Our O• Method is based on physics, chemistry and biology with emphasis on the first one as the rest often follow naturally. We divide our work in three parts: Body-Mind-Soul. To allow them all to detox and let go we work with energy (Prana, Xi, Vitality, Spirit, Pneuma or whatever you call the life force, it's the same force mentioned in ancient texts) to heal on all levels, i.e. from chronic disease, toxicity, depression and traumas using our own method, reaching 96% success rate which is unheard of by others in our sector. Would you know of anyone with that result, let us know.
Considering that we invented and dumped >120.000 (petro)chemically derived substances since 1945, of which many are very toxic, getting healthy will most likely include a good old body detox sooner or later.
My love for Ayurveda started in 1993 with Deepak Chopra and after a few turns in life I quit my job as a Nordic Brand Manager and BI strategist at the largest Nordic telecom operator and re-schooled in natural medicine. Besides Dr. Chopra I have studied Dr. Lad, Dr. Siva (Pune, India) and other prominent teachers in their field, but the real difference comes with a practiced. I added nutrition, Orthomolecular Medicine with Dr. Nielsen (USA/Spain) and herbalism.
Today we teach those whom want to continue our work and we love to dig down in etymology and the original (mainly Avestan, Pali and Sanskrit) scripts to understand the words fully and I fall in love with the concepts over and over again for every sutra. This love affair that created a few books (Amazon), presentations, essayes and many events and consultations, is still giving us Yang-Yin balance and inspiration. I guess with that we are recognizing the value of Dao De Ching 💚🌿💜
