There is no doubt about it. When neurological symptoms flare we all furiously begin to search for options that offer the promise of quick relief. We furiously engage our minds to understand what is causing the symptoms. We eagerly search for options that provide temporary relief or even reverse the symptoms.
In other words, we are continuously in our minds

Each and every moment of our waking lives. True healing lies in a place that resides deep inside the cells of our body – not in our minds. How do we access this unique gateway to healing? Two options are sure bets.
The first is to hydrate your body; to hydrate your cells. Many people do not drink enough water. The second is to breath, to give those cells oxygen.
These two therapies are both simple. They are free. They are easy to do. You can activate each of these therapies at any point in time during the day. No doctor is required to write a prescription. These two approaches will potentially yield enormous returns if practiced on a regular basis.
My invitation for you this week is quite simple. Several times during the day, especially when you are having negative and hurtful thoughts that are rattling through your mind over and over, stop. Take three breaths as deep as is comfortable for each one.
When you breath allow yourself, just for a moment, to become aware of colors, sounds, touches and smells; all of which we are often ignorant of when we are in our heads. Take three long and delicious breaths, at least three different times during the day.
- Stop. Take a slow breath in and out.
- Take a second breath in and out.
- Take a third breath in and out.
Then, take a sip of water. I am talking here a simple task that will consume no more than 20 or 30 seconds, three times a day.
Notice how everything shifts. Notice how your awareness deepens; how you reach that place deep inside your cells, the place of true and genuine and profound healing. This is the place where neurological symptoms are reversed. No money is required. No prescription is needed. Simply practice breathing and sipping water three times––three times a day.
