<p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>After over 30 years of

<p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Change your life. If you
want to get better, that is what you have to do. The first step is to
read a lot, a whole lot. As we liked to say in our college days,
“Don’t start vast projects with half-vast ideas.” You have
to be willing to develop an entirely new relationship with libraries. If
you are well educated, and especially if you are a health professional, you
will have to unlearn much of what you’ve been taught and start afresh
with the rather disruptive thought that natural healing may actually
work. If you are not highly educated, you will need to abandon your
anxiety and fear of reading and doing research.</span><span style='font-size:

than a person who cannot read.”<o:p></o:p></span></i></p>
<p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>To quickly cut through
the treacle, I ask clients this most pointed of questions early in a
consultation:</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>“What are you
willing to do to get better?”</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt'><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>The answer I want, of
course, its, “Anything.” But as with wedding vows or new
year’s resolutions, I know better than to hold people too rigorously to
their dreams. Flexibility was never more necessary than with self-health
care. I will accept a two-thirds effort, for, as a teacher of some
experience, I pass anyone at a 65%. More is better, but if you were to
entirely change two-thirds of your life, I’d be satisfied and also impressed. Especially
if you hold to it for more than a year.</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>And I think you’d
be impressed with the results you got.</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>There is no such thing as
a free lunch, a quick fix, or a magic wand to cure illness. I wish there
were easy answers to people’s health questions. There
aren’t. There are answers, all right, but they are not easy.</span><span
style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>“Give a man a fish,
and he will be hungry tomorrow. Teach a man to fish, and he will always have
food.” This is my personal and professional philosophy, because it is
true.</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Modern medicine has
created more co-dependents even than co-pays. We’ve learned to hold out
for a magic bullet, such as a new miracle drug, breakthrough surgical
procedure, or new organ transplant. What rubbish. Oddly enough, we’ve
also “learned” to discount the healing power of Nature, and the
tremendous therapeutic benefit of lifestyle changes, vegetarian diet, raw
food juices, and vitamin supplements.</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Okay, that was then; this
is now. There is a new paradigm, an entirely new way of seeing health,
opening in front of us. You have likely heard that the Chinese word for
“crisis” is the same as the word for “opportunity.”
On the other hand, the very word “patient” implies passivity and
powerlessness. The Doctor Yourself philosophy is against that. When
people ask me for a solution to their particular health problem, they would
have me fall into the role of being their doctor. The Doctor Yourself
philosophy is against that, too. Me-teacher-you-dumbbell, or
me-doctor-you patient, or me-politician-you-voter, or any other paternalistic
or maternalistic stay-in-your-place tradition will not pass muster with
me. Such were the old ways, and they are obsolete and unproductive. You
want productive, you follow leads and dig. Whether it is for oil, gold, or
information, it requires action, your action. Question authority. Do it
yourself.</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>If you want to change
your health, you have to change your life. </span><span
