The Story Behind Autoimmune Dysfunction &
Why the Body Attacks Itself
By David W. Dolan, MT-CST-NMT (This paper is intented to be ONE of the contributing
factors to autoimmune dysfunction and does not intend to say this is true in
ALL cases.)
The basic theory is based
on the premise that deep held beliefs and the emotions they produce have
everything to do with your health and the different disease problems a person
might have. Many scientists and biologists validated this theory, but mainly
Candice Pert, Ph.D., Ms Pert while at the National Institute of Health,
discovered and quantified neuropeptides. These neuropeptides are coined, “the
molecules of emotion”. This discovery of over 100 different messenger molecules
proved the physical link between emotions and a physiological response in the
cells.
We now know that emotions
are responses to our beliefs and what we hold dear with no doubt. Change the
belief and change the emotional responses. This process in turn, changes the
physiology of the human being. Changing the physiology means quite
specifically, that our cellular make up and how our glands, organs, and even
our skeletal alignment can change for the better or worse. Paying attention to
our emotional responses over time can give us a real good snapshot of what is
happening in our body.
You can imagine how helpful
this would be in choosing supplements, diet, and even what kind of healthcare
professional to choose.
Dr. Bruce Lipton Ph.D.,
developer of a new form of biology and author of the book, “Biology of Belief”,
states, “The subconscious mind (the Voice) is a repository of stimulus response
tapes derived from instincts and learned experiences. When your emotional
“buttons” are pushed and you fly into a dramatic response, it is the stimulus
response of a behavior program stored in the mind.” These programs can be the
very reason human beings have self-sabotage behaviors that ruin health and
well-being. Dr. Lipton also adds those parents’ emotions and behaviors DO have
effect on the fetus brain and starts the programming of the subconscious mind
before birth.
Certainly the ever growing
field of psychoneuroimmunology, a term coined by Candice Pert, PhD., gives
scientific research credibility to the effects of trauma on the nervous system
and then the physical body.
Miguel Ruiz, MD, has
written several books on belief and what our deep held beliefs do to our
nervous system and secondly, to our overall body health. Intrinsically entwined
is our happiness and whether we are generally enjoying our life with optimism,
understanding, hope, and compassion.
His premise is that
thousands of years ago human beings formulated a general philosophy evolving
out of survival concerns with predators, shelter, food, and procreation. As we
grew in consciousness, humans developed general rules to live by coined,
“common sense”, and these concepts guided humanity into groups and villages.
Over thousands of years these concepts have matured into religions,
philosophies, and a general premise of what a human being is and what life is
and its purpose. All human cultures have this, “creation story”. From this
story of creation, mankind has developed a sense that what he believes is true
(without a doubt), and what others believe is false.
We all have learned though
history that man has believed many things without a doubt, which have
proved to be false. For instance, like the earth is flat or the center of
the universe. We all remember painfully how societies and even religions in the
name of God, banished its members, and sometimes even killed their own kind for
not believing in these falsehoods. Dr. Ruiz called these falsehoods, “Lies of
Humanity”.
These lies that are
generally accepted as truth about humanity form the core belief systems of
humans at the age of 0-4 as we learn to talk. Our parents teach us what words
mean and what they represent. This learning is a natural programming of the
brain and most parents think they are doing what is best for the baby. By the
time the child reaches school, a plethora of programming coming from many
people such as teachers, schoolmates, and other family members. All this
programming creates belief systems in the child based on what got approval
from parents and therefore, love and acceptance.
At this point, the belief
system is in place and the perceptive ability of the brain is filtered to “see”
what is the truth. See what works and what doesn’t. The word
"Filtered", meaning, looking through a lens that blocks some of
reality out.
Brain researchers from Mayo
clinic and other facilities now can prove that perception in the brain is
determined from what one believes is possible and recognizable. There are
many stories of how primitive people never seeing or being taught that
something exists, makes that object actually invisible to their eyes. The same
human eyes (biologically) built those ships that sailed to the new world with
Columbus. Some natives couldn’t even see them anchored in the bay. It depended
on what they deeply believed could be possible.
"Seeing isn’t
necessarily believing," unless you are looking with the “eyes to see”.
Of course, that is a metaphor to apply to more than seeing with the eyes.
Understanding a concept that is not visible requires some sort of logical
agreement by the listener or an open mind to digest what is being presented.
I could go on, but lets apply the idea so far to autoimmune diseases. Auto Immune diseases are
coined as “the body attacking itself”. I have found this to be an intriguing
idea. Why would the body attack itself? If the normal physiological program is
for the immune system to protect the body against invaders/pathogens, what
happened to the program?
What kind of message is our
nervous system/brain sending to the rest of the body’s functions? Is it based
on fear of survival, or fear of not being accepted, or fear of not being successful?
How much time in a day is
devoted to things I “MUST Do” because fear-based thoughts are programmed into
your ”common sense”. Fear of serious things and fear of simple things like,
“Oh, I am growing older” or “Crap, I am getting fat!” Fear of meeting approval
on appearance, fear of getting sick, fear of not making enough money are all
fears.
So we attack that which we are fearful of.
We are attacking ourselves
daily without knowing it, mentally, with diet, with friends, with lovers, with
governments, with institutions, with corporations, with nature itself. As
humans we have created many ways and reasons why we should attack others for
survival, patriotism, and even if they have different beliefs or religions. Why
have we changed the natural physiological program of balance in the immune
system? Did we even have any awareness that we did change it? It might have
something to do with our image of what is good, perfect, righteous, and our
definition of “what God wants from us!”
Every time we look in the
mirror and say something detrimental to ourselves, like “look at those
wrinkles, I look bad” or “I am getting fat”; we are attacking ourselves with
words and thoughts. In fact, this is rampant in some societies where “how you
appear to others” is important. Like the whole western world!!
Our deepest beliefs have
been programmed with LIES called “Lies about humanity” and those beliefs that
are false create great suffering in the body and in the world.
What are these lies? Lies
like, “I am only human, not perfect”, or “that’s God punishing you for your
sins”, or……….(I leave that for another article).
So as humans we have now
developed autoimmune problems such as cancer, AIDS, fibromyalgia, arthritis,
chronic fatigue, and toxic poisoning from many environmental and agriculture
developments in the last century.
What is natural is loosing
ground.
We attack ourselves with
emotions, beliefs, and ideas, everyday! Thoughts and words carry neuropeptides
to different areas of the body and create cellular responses. These peptides
then create physiological changes in our health. Sometimes temporary changes
like mild depression, digestive problems, elimination problems, headaches,
stress, and more!
Our governments over the
last thousands of years have convinced us that it is OK to kill our neighbor
when they don’t agree or submit. We call it patriotism and culturally agree
that it is honorable to kill our neighbor when our government tells us to.
Remember Caesar or Hitler? Or Alexander the Great…or Genghis Kahn…Leaders and
governments who told their armies they were on a mission from God or were doing
what is patriotic and expected of them for honor.
We have labeled this
belief, the cost of freedom. To stay free we must kill!
Make the other group submit
to our beliefs or die. (Another LIE of HUMANITY)
As long as we attack
others, we will utilize the belief that this is just, honorable, and
intelligent. This includes even the mild forms in daily life such gossiping,
self criticism, self doubt, denying ourselves happiness for some reason that we
don’t even believe in, so we can save face to our families or neighbors.
We attack ourselves and
others based on reasons we think are common sense when in reality, it is
programming instilled in us ancestrally. Thousands of years of belief have
affected billions of people. Consciousness is evolving and now these ideas are
being questioned all over the world as being false truth. Questioning
religions, governments, philosophies, as we are now “seeing” with new eyes.
Can humanity survive if we
stop attacking each other and ourselves?
Can autoimmune diseases
survive if we stop attacking?
The body attacks itself.
Hmmn! Isn’t that insane? Can we really validate that as intelligent?? Is it
worth keeping the guilt, shame, or hatred?
There is a way out.
Learn to love our self. Unlearn the lie of humanity that it is selfish to put yourself first.
Remember the training of airline personnel that tell you to put the oxygen mask
on yourself first to be of any value to anyone else. (Like your kid sitting
beside you!) Love yourself first and empower yourself to offer love,
support, and kindness to others.
We need to unlearn all
these lies of humanity, change the program, learn to love ourselves first-then
learn to love others. We can make it common sense to love others and ourselves,
change the beliefs that support attacking.
Kindness and compassion were the words of the spiritual
masters in advising how to live our lives in happiness.
(This paper is not intended to cover EVERY possibility
of why the body attacks itself, but is one very valid theory.)

I am happy to find this content very helpful and informative for me, as it contains lot of accurate detailing about the topic, this point, the belief system is in place and the perceptive ability of the brain is filtered to “see” what is the truth which I was searching for. Thanks a lot and good luck.

Auch scheint man von den vielen Schulklassen der vergangenen Jahre gelernt zu haben, die gerne noch für zus?tzliche - wenn auch nicht zahlende - Besucherzahlen gesorgt haben. Laut Chill33hh (von dem die meisten Infos dieses Posts stammen) wurde diese Entscheidung Dancellis von der Tour 1990 wegen der Technischen überlegenheit der DA als sehr gute Wahl bezeichnet. Ursprünglich stammt der Jazz Dance aus den USA, wo er als zeitgen?ssischer Gesellschafts- und Kunsttanz entwickelt wurde. Meistens gliedern sich diese Parks in einen Entspannungs-, einen Unterhaltungs- und einen Spa? und Spiel Bereich. das erw?hnte of a friday night und dreams sind allesamt Musterbeispiele für Rocksongs, die man nicht mehr vergi?t.
