HARMONICS HEALING
txt/GEN MORITA
Introduction
Harmonics Healing is more than a method to replace reliance on medical doctors
with new dependence on holistic or natural practitioners. Harmonics Healing
is not reducible to this or that technique; it is much more. The heart or
essence of Harmonics Healing is to teach, to point the way that each person
through these simple treatments can activate the real healer within themselves,
the body's own natural response.
Harmonics Healing combines Oriental or Eastern medicine with certain international
holistic approaches. Harmonics Healing starts from the reality, that the
make-up and structure of the body are designed to maintain balance, order
or harmony which is health. This is why for example, if we eat bad food
we get diarrhea or vomit. The body is simply trying to rid itself of the
poison. This is a natural response, a sign that the body is working properly.
All living beings are created to live in harmony or order. Life can be defined
as a constant forward movement, always striving for comfort, harmony or
balance within itself and with others, avoiding danger or discomfort. The
phenomenon of life is a phenomenon of balance. As a plant never fails to
grow toward the sun, no life grows at random. All physical life on earth
functions in accordance with natural laws laid down over billion years of
evolution.
The roots of all diseases lie in breaking this natural law and living uncomfortably
or in uncomfortable environment. Recovery from diseases only means starting
to move in the direction of comfort, harmony or balance, which our body
and mind really desire, and adapting ourselves to the simple but inescapable
laws of life.
The real ability to heal is not to be found in super drugs or in high technology
equipment, but within the body itself, its natural healing ability. Certain
recognition of this has come to be understood in terms of the role of the
immune system and its role in maintaining health. The full meaning of the
body's natural healing ability is much broader and deeper, and not limited
to the sole role of the immune system. In fact, the word "Physics"
means the healing power of nature and the original meaning of "Physician"
is a person who assists on encourage this natural healing ability. In other
words the natural healing ability of the body, when freed of obstacles and
properly activated, can rectify imbalance and restore health.
When our body and mind are in balance in accordance with the laws of life,
we have a feeling of comfort. In the end, all feelings in the universe come
down to two, comfort and discomfort. The natural instinct of the body is
to avoid discomfort and seek comfort. Many problems mentally and physically
arise by not obeying this basic drive. This comfort should not be confused
with the narrow surface "pleasure of the moment" or "feeling
good". It is not simply a surface sensation; it is a deeper inner feeling.
Comfort is a basic natural instinct we constantly seek for mentally and
physically. Comfort means acting and thinking in the direction that leads
to the progression of life and happiness. Real comfort means peace and harmony
of mind and body. Comfort in other words means do the right thing.
There is nothing difficult about it. All we have to do is turn away from
the false comforts of modern civilization in which our cerebral cortex (brain)
is deeply immersed, and think of what each and every one of our body cells
most wants for its harmony and comfort, and what food would make us feel
best. Then, listening to the body, we should act on it.
FIVE ESSENTIAL FACTORS OF HARMONICS LIFE
There are certain essential activities that every human beings have to engage
in to stay alive: Breathing, Eating and Drinking, Physical activity (Movement)
and Mental activity (Thinking). A harmonious and comfortable balance between
these four activities and the fifth element, Environment, is the basic principle
for the recovery from incurable diseases. The root or cause of illness is
found in imbalance in these areas. And in all of these essential factors
we find the simple but inescapable laws of life at work.
The environment itself poses a serious problem which mankind will have to
solve over the next several hundred years. But we can start immediately
practising the above four activities. Actually, without the comfortable
balance within ourselves first, there will be no harmony with environment.
We have to start from our own body. What makes our body healthy eventually
makes the earth healthy.
HOW CAN WE GO ABOUT RESTORING PROPER BALANCE TO
THE BODY?
Two major methods are recommended in the practice of Harmonics Healing;
Sotai Therapy and Soto Therapy. Sotai Therapy involves moving the body slowly
in a comfortable direction and removing any physical distortions in the
motor system. Soto Therapy is concerned with adjusting the temperature of
the major internal organs including liver, kidneys, spleen and thymus to
a comfortable level.
SOTAI THERAPY
Sotai exercise addresses the relationship of the body structure to its overall
proper functioning. This is a kind of missing link in the understanding
of illness and health. If the structure of the body is out of balance it
will affect its proper function, including the organs. If the pelvis is
too tight it can affect the kidney function. Often painful menstration is
in part related to a tight pelvis condition. If the posture of the shoulder
is pulled foward, the lung cannot expand properly. This will affect the
very function of the lungs, causing for example some of the lungs' elastic
tissue to disappear.
Every emotion has its effect on the body structure. When someone is angry
the stomach becomes straightend and tense. This overstimulates the liver.
Constant anger can damage the liver, just as constant alcohol intake can.
If the neck is stiff and tense, it can have a direct effect on blood circulation
to the brain and the function of the heart, since the nerves controlling
the heart pass through the muscle of the neck.
Sotai underlines the reality that disease can result from accumulated wrong
movement or posture of the body. Sotai exercise corrects distortion of the
body structure by particularly restoring the flexibility of the muscles,
which play a major role in the body function. Sotai, very unique exercise,
has almost an immediate effect upon the body. By various movements, stretching,
twisting etc. of the legs, arms, shoulders, head, waist and etc. in the
direction most comfortable, proper function to the difficult or out of balance
part can be restored. This movement is integrated with relaxed breathing
at the same time. While Sotai largely addresses the structure of the body,
this same principle also applies to our mental activity. Thinking positive,
happy thoughts is mental activity in the comfortable direction. Positive
thinking produces a biochemistry that strengthens the immune function, while
stress and depression surpress the immune system.
SOTO THERAPY
Soto integrates physiology, anatomy and pathology with the philosophy of
oriental medicine, which sees the mind and body as one, and all things as
interrelated and coexistent. Soto has become more scientific by adopting
recent findings on the inter-relationship of the immune system and the brain.
Soto lays great sigificance on balancing the internal organs. The method
is to regulate first the thymus, then liver, small intestines, spleen, kidneys
and soles of feet by means of comfortable thermal stimulation, which can
be applied by a regular heating instrument such as a travel iron, a hot
water bottle, hot towels etc.
The liver, kidneys, spleen and thymus are considered as the foundation of
the internal organs on which all the body systems and functions depend;
the digestive system, blood and lymph circulative system, immune system,
hormon system, nervous system, respiratory system and so on.
IDENTIFICATION OF ILLNESS/LET
Life Energy Test (LET) is used to identify abnormalities of the body. When
a small pressure is applied to the surface of the skin or a variety of samples
are placed in contact with the body, certain changes are seen in the tension
held between the fingers. It is a simple, non-intrusive technique which
enables us to identify abnormalities in the internal organs, to detect bacterial/viral
infections, the presence of cancer as well as to determine the appropriate
specific drugs, herbs, therapy and diet.
This method allows us to tune into the body's basic intelligence to easedrop
on the body, so to speak, in order to catch the signals from the body. This
technique allows us to know what is wrong or down and most importantly what
things, like food and herbs etc. will help activate the body to restore
health.
Basically all matter is energy is the foundation for understanding the working
of the human body. This profound insight of people like Einstein has not
been widely accepted by modern medicine in terms of understanding the human
body, illness and health. Each organ has its specific vibration or frequency.
Every malfunction has its specific vibration or frequency. Every food, herb,
every word has its own specific frequency; Everything has its own specific
vibration - energy. For example a herb or food with the proper frequency
can help the body restore balance or put the body back on the proper beat.
With the use of a simple metal rod placed on various organ points, electromagnetic
energy will affect the strength of the practitioner's finger as he tries
to hold the thumb and some other finger in a circle. If the organ is weak
the finger will open. When the proper herb or food is put, the circle will
close.
