Whole Means Healthy: The Results in My Own Physical Health

It is said: "In public, be private".  This is sound advice.  A blog is very very public.  So I am going to keep private my own health details, while still detailing the difference focusing on "Whole Means Healthy" can make, because it functions like a map in guiding you.  In the next 6 months, I hope to celebrate the end of long journey on one health front in my life.  Its major effects have been felt off and on since 1985.   The end of 2004 is when I began to look more at health as wholeness.  It has made a difference.

Since that time in 2004, I changed my approach, when it came to seeking advice from health practioners of various kinds.  I didn't get trapped by some of their supposed expert advice, because I held then a map for the journey.  In the process, I also learned what the most important questions were.  As I sit writing this entry, I am feeling great physically.  It is hard to imagine myself on this side of pain.

Besides the problem of physical pain, there can also be the problem of effects on your career.  I am cetainly not alone on this one, because I see it all the time in television and internet news. 

If I can share any advice with others, it is this.  When you have pain, it is because some part yourself or your whole self is not whole.  That is THE major cause of pain and so working on being whole or adapting to not being whole in some cases, is the most important thing to keep in  mind. 

This advice works because it changes the map you are using to find answers.  It also keeps you level headed, when some people tell you that your approach to health is not going to work.  You just have to recall that some people including experts may lack an accurate map, while you have one. 

So pick up the map that says at the top: "whole means healthy".  And in my other blog, please examine with me the possibility that holy means healthy that could lead to further breakthroughs in physical health way beyond my own personal breakthrough. 

Once I broke from using an old map that was taking me in the wrong direction, no matter how fast I traveled, to a new map that is when things took off in the right direction for me and my physical health!   Praise God.

In Christ,

Pastor Jon
