"Embracing the truth is the first step in gaining mastery of our inner lives and our health." — Dr Julie Holland
I couldn't let this week go without commenting on the needless shootings in the 'United States of Addiction'. We know guns enable deaths so quickly without even close contact.
What we don't know is why this is happening so often? What mind chooses to do this kind of killing? A troubled mind. A very troubled mind.
But I want to go a little deeper. My quote this week comes from a book called Moody Bitches by Julie Holland MD, an American psychopharmacologist, psychiatrist and author. She is not the first to comment on the legal drug use in our communities and she won't be the last.
If we all wish to live a happy life (and I'm sure we do) then how come we have been lulled into needing a pill for so many things in our lives? How come so many of our children are now medicated? How come we insist that a prescription is what we need to leave the doctor's office with and if we don't have one we feel a little cheated? Science is giving us a clear lead that suggests the human body has all it needs to heal, be balanced and healthy.
My Angels encourage me to seek the answers to my own health in ways already before me, the right person to help me search for the answers to my condition, rather than pop a pill for what pharmaceutical companies think will be the answer to my particular challenge.
We are so dulled down by medication, both legal and illegal, that we have stopped crying, being frustrated or angry and expressing this appropriately to those around us. Many of us now only recognise huge, powerful emotions, when we are forced into a corner or have taken destructive action we may live to regret.
