What is Natural Health?
Our body is a wonderful machine that works day in, day out for our survival.
It is animated by an intelligent force that constantly monitors all its internal
processes so that it can self-correct. When it gets out of balance, the body takes
actions to restore its own health—if we do not get in its way.
You see, nature operates according to predetermined laws and order.
When you observe nature, you can easily notice that it generously provides every
species with the optimal conditions for its survival: foods, habitat, etc. Any animal
that lives according to nature’s intentions thrives.
Almost all babies are born healthy and vital, yet most adults suffer from one chronic
condition or another.
Why? What causes sickness to develop?
According to the natural hygiene philosophy, our lifestyle choices and habits have a
major effect on our health and our state of well-being. These habits consist of the
ways in which we care for ourselves: how we nourish our bodies and minds (through
eating choices/habits, personal care products, the thoughts we have, and more),
exercise and rest, endure stress, respond to the environment we live in, etc.
Modern lifestyles provide us with the gifts of ease and comfort, but also catalyze
the development of many diseases.
We live in constant stress. Our diet is mostly processed, frozen, canned, and/or
full of preservatives. It is high in calories and low in nutritional value, so we
gain weight but starve for nutrients. We don't move enough but we don’t get enough
rest either. We hide from the healing light of the sun and breathe polluted air.
And when we get sick, we pop a pill and go about our day.
It is obvious then that western lifestyle exposes us to the ingestion and inhalation
of many synthetic chemical substances. Those are toxins that our bodies were not
designed to handle. They then enter the bloodstream and deposit in different tissues,
creating inflammation and malfunction. When an organ or a tissue does not function
well, we call it a disease.
It has been proven repeatedly with tens of thousands of people worldwide: when you
make good changes in your habits and lifestyle choices, then your body shifts its
course and moves towards health.
It is only logical that if straying away from nature makes us sick, then going back
to nature will improve our health.
It is that simple!
