Is worrying one of your characteristics? Well, stop! It is okay to worry, but at the right time.

Psychologists at the University of Pennsylvania tell patients who suffer from anxiety to regularly do a daily twenty-minute “worry session,” always at the same time and in the same place. Collect your head full of worries during the day (don’t suppress them!) and then pour them out during your daily worry session.

Overstate your worries to the point of absurdity – knit your brows, make faces, let the sweat flow, shake and cower as much as you like. In other words, make a caricature of the part of yourself that is always worried, and in so doing exorcise it.

As per Ilchi Lee writes eliminating worry will help prevent numerous psychosomatic illnesses, which result from living in a state of enduring anxiety.

Indigestion usually results from excess acidity in the stomach, or from improper functioning of your digestive system. At the point where the esophagus and stomach join, a special muscle opens and closes the esophagus. When we swallow food this muscle relaxes to let the food pass into the stomach after which it closes again.

But it can happen that the muscle malfunctions. The contents of the stomach then rise back up the esophagus, irritating the area. And this results in the infamous feeling of heartburn.

How to stop it? Avoid acidic foods (lemons, etc.), alcohol, fat or fried food, food that is overcooked, coffee, juice, tomato base foodstuffs and chocolate. But don’t deprive yourself too much. Rather, observe which foods bring on heartburn and avoid them. Also, don’t go to sleep right after eating (you should eat supper around 7 o’clock) and don’t smoke, particularly after meals.

If we obtainable you a miracle remedy that prevents cardiac disease, certain types of cancer, diabetes, obesity, tooth decay and varicose veins, would you buy it? Certainly you would.

Prof Lee said there is such a product. But it is not a recent discovery and you won’t find it in a pharmacy but at the grocery store. We are talking about fiber.

A study conducted in Holland on 871 men, over a period of ten years, showed that subjects who had a low fiber diet were three times more susceptible to mortal disease – causes despite – than those who ate a lot of fiber (Future Youth). This said, it couldn’t be confirmed at present that fiber prevents the above-mentioned diseases in all cases. But there is conclusive proof that they occur more frequently in populations with low fiber diets which is exactly the case in the west.

According to The Lancet a diet that contains at least 37 grams of fiber per day (the equivalent of one cup of bran, one apple, one potato and a half cup of cooked spinach) can effectively protect the organism against chronic illnesses common to western society.

So fiber is useful in combating many disorders besides constipation.

LOW FIBER FOODS:

Particularly white bread (since fiber is removed in white flour), beef, pork, chicken, milk, butter, cheese, sugar, processed meats, desserts, fish, seafood and noodles.

GOOD SOURCES OF FIBER:

· Fruits: especially apples and prunes.

· Vegetables: potatoes with their peel, spinach, artichokes, cabbage, and peas.

· Whole grains: barley, whole wheat (you should eat whole wheat bread because of the bran it contains), and oats, corn.

· Nuts: peanuts and almonds.

· Dried fruit: apricots, plums, figs, and dates.

· Legumes: soy beans, lima beans, lentils, chick peas.

Note that there are numerous types of fiber, and that you should alternate between them. For example, the fiber contained in apples and the fiber in cereals are both essential, since they don’t have the same digestive function.

Prof ilchi lee recommended please read carefully

· First cut down on saturated fats. To do this:

· Select lean cuts and ask your butcher to cut off the fat.

· Do the same for all dairy products. Note that vegetarians have a much lower cholesterol level (almost twice as low as average) that is perfectly understandable, since cholesterol is only found in products derived from animals.

· Not more than two glasses a day. However, it does appear that drinking a moderate amount of alcohol raises the number of HDL lipids (the good ones!), which break down cholesterol. (Moderation = two 4 oz. glasses of wine or two 12 oz. beers.)

· Do regular exercise, for example walking.

· Take Vitamin E, it reduces the risk of coronary disease.

· Calcium brewer’s yeast, Vitamin C and Vitamin B-6 also combat the accumulation of cholesterol. And don’t forget lecithin, which helps fight excess cholesterol, arteriosclerosis, hypertension 27 of the best health “tips” 25 and angina (as well as psoriasis, anxiety and diabetes – and reduces the likelihood of contracting cancer). Losing weight is a good way to raise your HDL level.

· Use poly-unsaturated, non-hydrogenated, cold pressed oil: corn oil, sunflower seed oil, soy, flax etc. Mono-unsaturated oil like olive oil can even raise your HDL level.

· Daily use of fish would be ideal for prevent cardio-vascular problems, as demonstrated conclusively in a number of studies on fish-eating populations (Eskimos for example). Ideally, you would eat fish twice a day. And as strange as this sounds, you should select the fattest kinds: mackerel, sardines, herring, salmon etc. As for the oil in the fish, it is used to treat arterial disorders. Its effects can be felt in about six weeks. Fish oil contains two poly-unsaturated fatty acids that are very helpful for the arteries. Read more you want to know by Ilchi Lee.

All life forms have the ability to feel the subtle flow of energy. However, because we have become increasingly disconnected from nature and dependent on language to communicate and our five senses for perception, our ability to distinguish energy has been diminished.

When one’s energy sense is developed, one’s self-healing mechanism increases noticeably, and one is able to relate to nature and other people more intensely.

The development of our energy sense is intimately connected to the development of physical sense. It is only after the physical sense is awakened to subtleties that the energy sense can be developed easily and more deeply. Ji-gam (Energy Sensitivity Training), introduced in Chapter 4, is especially effective in developing this proficiency.

The third way to experience HSP is with a spiritual sense that helps us to pursue values that are rooted in our soul. If we do not know our souls, then we are trapped in the physical body. Because the physical body is confined to space and time, it believes that it is alone, finite, and separated. But when we awaken to our soul, we feel our connection to the universe. To awaken our spiritual sense, we must listen carefully to the voice of the soul (see Chapters 8-10). We can develop our spiritual sense and strength when we choose to live as our soul’s voice directs, with honesty, diligence, and responsibility. Read more informative articles by Ilchi Lee.

The key to our spiritual sense lies in our experience of peace. This is when human beings experience a heightened sense of well-being and an enhanced awareness of who they really are, thereby moving to the realm of human consciousness that is otherwise inaccessible: a place of peace.

A final way to think about HSP is the ability to use our “sixth sense” to perceive objects or events without use ot our five sensory organs.

Like other senses, we can train and sharpen our HSP. The energy sensitivity training exercise below by Ilchi Lee demonstrates how our HSP can be awakened.

1. Fill up three identical glasses with equal amounts of water, orange juice, and milk.

2. Close your eyes and place your hand with palm facing down about 2 inches above each glass to feel each liquid. If you focus on your palms, each liquid will feel different. Open your eyes to check which one you are feeling and close them again. Repeat this several times.

3. Close your eyes. Have someone change the order of the glasses.

4. Feel each one and try to identify each liquid.

5. After stating the order, open your eyes to check whether you are right.

Throughout this book I have stressed that I wish for you to regain and actualize your own creative power. You need not rely on outside authorities to manage the majority of activities related to the core issues of your life. I am quite confident that if you grasp and apply the principles and skills of HT, your life will be richer, more authentic, and more peaceful. In order to use HT wisely and effectively, however, you need good judgment.

In a sense, much of our modern world is about the replacement of individual good judgment with institution-based knowledge. In our reaction against dogmas of the pre-modern age, we have created high technology systems and the rule of specialists—all of which are characterized by standardized analysis of sensory data. The knowledge thus acquired may conform to certain standards of predictability, but I submit that it is not a basis for living a life of passion and purpose.

Again, my point is not to reject technology, systems, and specialists. I hope I have made clear that they should not rule your life.

Ilchi Lee thinks that in order for us to be the masters and not servants of technology, we must be confident in our ability to make choices that reflect our most important values. We can only make these highest choices when we are well informed and have access to all the data that pertain to our situations. If our information is restricted to the data gathered with the blunt tools of our five senses, then our life course is automatically restricted to the realm of these gross physical phenomena alone. Do we really desire such lives for ourselves and our children?
