Most
people are familiar with the image on the top. An image of a lowly
iceberg. It looks so simple to simply steer around and bypass it on
the way to smoother seas.
But
if our past was a good teacher, then we know that by only paying
attention to the surface, we can miss a dangerous obstacle
in the depths.
Our
bodies are equipped with an incredible array of signals to let
us know that something is wrong. Sometimes it comes in the form of a
pain in the back, draining
fatigue,
or chest pain. The purpose of these signals is to tell us that
something is wrong, but it’s up to us to look within to identify
the cause.
As
long as we continue to exist in a healthcare system that only seeks
to reduce symptoms, then we will continue to get the same results as
those who only saw the tip of the iceberg.
Unless
we look towards the body’s healing capacity, and why it’s not
operating at 100% full function, then we are missing the boat on the
health challenges of millions of people. And there’s no amount of
drugs, natural medicine, surgery, or insurance money that can save
that ship from sinking.
