Please note: I’m just a tai chi teacher with no medical expertise of any kind. I can only speak from my own experience. I’m not suggesting there are any absolutes about any remedies of any sort.
For many common ailments we may choose among various forms of treatment.
Pharmaceuticals + Toxic Side Effects
Amongst those are numerous pharmaceutical options, some of which are very good. But, many:
- Are prohibitively expensive.
- Possess unreasonable potential for side effects because their toxicity is actually life threatening.
I wonder, are -
- those risks always necessary?
- they sometimes necessary?
- there times where those risks are not at all necessary?
How often do we feel that we’ve got the information we need to make the most informed choices? How often do we allow ourselves to be influenced by fear or other negative persuaders, just because the one with the loudest voice wins? (How many drug company ads do you see/hear during a regular day?)
What if you could not only feel healthier, but truly be healthier
AND
completely dispense with unpleasant and/or dangerous side effects?
Would you be interested in that?
