Natural forces within us are the true healers of disease.
Hippocrates.
As medical science discovers more and more about the human body it is apparent that Hippocrates, a man who lived 400years before Christ, knew what he was talking about. He treated his patients with proper diet, fresh air, attention to habits and living conditions, and minimized the use of drugs.
We now know that our bodies produce a myriad of chemicals, hormones and enzymes that can help us to heal both physical and mental maladies. The more we learn about complexity of the human body, the more we marvel at the wonder of it.
When we apply Hippocrates’ treatment of healthy habits, and work the 12 steps, we are placing ourselves in a condition that allows the natural forces within us to perform their miracles.
My body and mind have within them the power to heal me. And with the help of my Creator, I can be healthy and whole.
Health and cheerfulness mutually beget each other.
