Positive Qigong Transforms Fears of Inheriting a Disease

An article I saw in a Yoga e-zine Nov. 10th , ‘08
"Why It Can Take a Year to Get a Mammogram in the U.S. " originally located at: http://www.alternet.org/module/printversion/108717 is scary to me in a different way than it is intended to be. Having come to the understandings of biologist Bruce Lipton, http://www.brucelipton.com I find there is comfort in the research he offers and the history he shows supporting a new paradigm of thought that has been around for many years. Although his website doesn't at this time offer as many free articles as it used to, you can glean from it some of the theories that have enhanced my previous studies on the subject (since the 1960's), of why our minds are now proven to control our cells and therefore our genes. So much research is done now and is proving that we are best NOT cowering in fear of inheriting a disease from our parents, siblings and other genealogically close relatives. It is the cowering and fear itself that informs your cells that you are vulnerable and opens the genes to your thought language which is really what brings on disorders of the body, mind, spirit and energy. Your thoughts are precious and need to be guided with your good intention by developing your subconscious understandings of this truth.

The pharmaceutical world and medical establishment makes very much money on human frailties that are exacerbated by keeping from you the now well researched knowledge of your human ability to change your mind and change your cells. If people don't train to discard fears... sorry to say it, but those above mentioned industries will still be the ones who are keeping you fearful instead of you yourself providing the education you need to transform your limiting beliefs and therefore your very own DNA.

Every class in Tai Chi-Qigong I teach helps you to get a stronger defense against the old information you hold onto. It's important to me as a teacher to help you take your health safely into your own hands, heart and habit. Although one class might or might not be an inspiration for you to completely change your life, you need to agree with the part of you who wants you to change. You can’t keep listening to the part of you who cancels out your good intentions, (called the Monkey Mind.) You must begin taking the reins which will let you steer your own destiny in terms of how healthy you choose to be. So you need to begin a habitual program of training with a teacher who is positive in language usage.

You can take Qigong classes with teachers who use positively based language or you might find teachers who are scaring you into believing that THEY and only their system hold the keys to training you to become healthier. This ancient art we call Qigong is provided by natives or offered by foreign born rather than Chinese. No matter whatever the nationality, an individual teacher might be a type who wants you to believe that it is their system that is better than another.

It is my opinion, that we have a very abundant need in this world right now for teachers or people who systemize pieces of systems which might be called Qigong or offshoots of it. We must be selective. There can be the same kind of fear inducement that can make a seeker of Ancient Wisdom think that it is their teacher and not their own dedicated training within the system that is helping them to transform. It is important for you to take your time and do the research of reading a good deal about how to trust your inner guidance. No one develops overnight into a completely enlightened human being. Take your time in reading and taking weekend workshops that introduce you to a system. Don’t get immediately entrained into any one program.

You need to find someone :
• who doesn’t want to sign you up for a lifetime of classes ,
• someone who doesn’t seem to be doing it only for the money,
• someone who tells you that it is YOU who does the transforming of your own mind to train your own cells.
• someone who is happy if you take classes on occasion with other teachers,
• someone who looks and acts like they are doing what they are teaching.

These are only examples of what to look for in finding a teacher who will help you get away from an induced feeling coming from our society that has us feeling the magic bullet is out there and an overnight change will come about with a wave of a magic wand. My area of expertise is Qigong, but offered amongst the thousands of expert information you find on a web site such as Self Growth.com are those who want to control you in the same way the Medical World of the West has for too many years. Make certain you stay independent and strongly confident in the program you eventually select. Believe that in well spent time, you will make changes in your life so you are no longer afraid of your very own genes and family -culturally-induced habits .
