About this listen
Our society tells us that if we are not constantly moving, we are not being productive. Yet often the most productive choice we can make is the choice to slow down—before our hectic lifestyle catches up and forces us to focus on our own self-care as outlined in personal testimonies in the book.
In Slow Down by Choice or Lay Down by Force: 7 Keys to Restore Wholistic Balance in Your Life, Trina Pitts-Khalfani outlines the seven steps that lead to a more balanced, healthy life. While contemporary science only begins to recognize that the health of the mind can shape the health of the body, we can and should embrace this truth whole-heartedly. Speaking from over 20 years of experience in health promotion and disease prevention, Khalfani shows us how we can return to the tried-and-true natural health practices that different cultures have been using for thousands of years in order to heal the mind, body, and spirit.

In Cured, Dr. Rediger digs down to the root causes of illness, showing how to create an environment that sets the stage for healing. He reveals the patterns behind healing and lays out the physical and mental principles associated with recovery: first, we need to physically heal our diet and our immune systems. Next, we need to mentally heal our stress response and our identities. Through rigorous research, Dr. Rediger shows that much of our physical reality is created in our minds. Our perception changes our experience, even to the point of changing our physical bodies.

Dr. Rankin discovered the health care she had been taught was missing something: a recognition of the body’s innate ability to self-repair. Using cases of spontaneous healing, Dr. Rankin shows how thoughts, feelings, and beliefs can alter the body’s physiology. She lays out the data proving that loneliness, pessimism, depression, fear, and anxiety damage the body, while intimate relationships, gratitude, meditation, sex, and authentic self-expression flip on the body’s self-healing processes.

Ever since medical school, Dr. Christiane Northrup has been guided by an essential truth about the way our bodies, minds, and souls are intertwined. It's the same truth Edgar Cayce expressed in this famous formula: The spirit is life. The mind is the builder. The physical is the result. When we don't grasp this - when we view our bodily well-being in isolation - life can devolve into constant worry about our health and constant battling to make our bodies "behave".
