Webster says: The meaning of the word truth extends from honesty, good faith, and sincerity in general, to agreement with fact or reality in particular.

The term has no single definition about which a majority of professional philosophers and scholars agree, and various theories of truth continue to be debated. There are differing claims on such questions as what constitutes truth; how to define and identify truth; the roles that revealed and acquired knowledge play; and whether truth is subjective, relative, objective, or absolute. This article introduces the various perspectives and claims, both today and throughout history.

So even the experts are somewhat unsure of what truth really is.

Dealing with a crisis can be the most difficult time of your life.  Everything gets turned upside down.  We may even go into shock.  Now how do we know the truth to follow.

We each have truth available to us in this moment, it is within us.  Go to Living From The Heart to find out how to access this truth. 

Have you ever had the feeling that you just know something?  You don’t know how you know it or where the information came from, but you KNOW!

You know it to be truth and you will stand by it as the truth.  Where did this come from, your mind, your heart and soul, or from outer space????

I had this experience while in my cancer journey and confused and uncertain which way to turn.  See what happened to me click here, in Song of My Soul: Hope Inspiration and Wisdom From A Cancer Suvivor.

Sometimes we just want someone to tell us the truth for us.  They can’t.  The truth resides in each of us and is the only truth there is for us.

Does truth change?  Each moment is new and different and ever-evolving.  In each moment, go within and access your truth.  Jesus said, “Be still and you will know.”

He was pointing us to the truth that is available to us every moment.

This is the most important piece of the puzzle for living.  If we believe this and act this and BE this, your life will be more peaceful.  Under the layers of beliefs you have aquired since you were a child, is the underlying fear of not being good enough.  As a newborn baby you knew you were love.

With time we begin to think “I am separate from love”.  Through our experiences we develop thoughts that I have to heal, improve, and change who IAM to know love. When in effect what we have to do is ‘realize’ love – what we already are. We do this by accepting who we are, honoring our vulnerabilities, and living within peace by not seeking to continually fix who we are. 

Only when we truly love ourselves do we have it to give to others.

When you know that there is nothing you have to do, nothing to improve, you live in love, experience love, and express love.

Once you know this and have the tools to experience this, life flows.  The present moment is the place of love.

Did you know the chemicals that make up our emotional feelings only stay in our blood for 90 seconds? 90 Seconds!  We all have the power to cycle out of worry, anger or fear…here’s how.  Feel how your “mood” or “attitude” or “feeling” actually feels in your body.  Are you calm?  Peaceful?  Happy?  Is life feeling pleasant right now?  If not, then REST, put yourself on PAUSE for 90 seconds.  STOP whatever you are doing.  Breathe.  Breathe again.  Breathe once more.  Then shift your thoughts to anything or anyone you love and allow your chest to relax: music, sunsets, mountains, oceans, dogs – and keep picturing and thinking and breathing for 90 seconds.  This isn’t a game, this is physiology.  You must be truly engaged with your emotions for this to work…and it does work!  You are the conductor of your internal chemical orchestra.

America has one of the highest cancer rates in the world, and cancer is the most dreaded disease in our society. Once rare, affecting less than one in a thousand, by 1900 cancer affected 30 in a thousand. Today almost 500 in a thousand will develop cancer in their lifetimes. The situation has become so bad that almost all Americans over the age of 50 have cancer!

For example, it is known that after age 50, 40 percent of men have prostate cancer and 40 percent of women have breast cancer, and these are just two cancers. Cancer is also increasing among children and, after accidents, it is their biggest killer.

We need to teach people how to prevent and reverse this tragic disease.  Unfortunately, modern medicine is of no help. Since 1971, when President Nixon declared “war” on cancer, we have thrown 200 billion dollars at cancer research. What has this money bought us? More cancer! The public has yet to grasp the colossal gap between how much money the cancer industry is spending, and the paltry results it is achieving. Research is only part of the billion dollar-a-day cancer industry whose treatments with drugs, surgery and radiation are not only ineffective but dangerous.

These conventional treatments do nothing to address what caused the cancer, and they suppress the immune system. Suppressed immunity allows cancer to grow and metastasize—modern medicine’s treatment of cancer promotes cancer!

Fortunately, we can protect ourselves. If you are over age 50, you are probably past preventing cancer, you already have it! Now you need to keep it under control. Don’t turn the cancer on, and if you already have active cancer, turn it off.

Can this be done? Sure it can, and it is done every day by people who take charge of their health.

 Last September, businessman Paul Orberson told his story on the Beyond Health radio show. Mr. Orberson had been diagnosed with advanced kidney cancer. Given only months to live, he read my book Never Be Sick Again—and put his cancer into remission. Fifteen years ago, my brother was diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer and given months to live. He, too, put his cancer into remission and is living a high-quality life. Medical school professor and author Dr. Lorraine Day reversed her highlyadvanced breast cancer. There are countless such stories.

 To prevent and reverse cancer, it helps to understand something about what causes and promotes cancer. The cancer process occurs in three stages: initiation, promotion and metastasis. Initiation Cancer begins with damaged genes. Initiation occurs when the DNA in a normal cell is damaged. If the DNA is not repaired before the cell divides to form a new cell, it results in a permanent genetic alteration in those new cells. DNA can be damaged by a variety of means, including viruses, chronic infections, foreign bodies, nutrient deficiency, radiation and toxic chemicals. Numerous natural and manmade chemicals have been identified as carcinogenic. Upon exposure, these chemicals can, in a matter of minutes, cause potentially permanent damage to DNA. Such chemicals include many common household chemicals, pesticides, herbicides, food additives, fluoride and metals such as mercury and lead.  We live in a sea of carcinogens and must learn how to avoid them.

Radiation is carcinogenic; it damages DNA. This is why mammograms cause breast cancer, and why medical X-rays play a major role in our cancer epidemic. Due to our exposure to carcinogenic chemicals and X-rays, most of our older population and many of our younger people have completed this initiation, and they have clusters of cancer cells throughout their bodies. This stage of cancer is not believed to be reversible. Given the right conditions, these cells will grow and then metastasize. Preventing Initiation DNA is being damaged and cancer is being initiated on a grand scale. Our best defense is to support DNA repair with good nutrition while avoiding carcinogenic chemicals and radiation. We have been irresponsibly exposed to radiation by our doctors and dentists. Decline routine X-rays. Allow only those that are absolutely necessary, and there are very few of those.

We have been exposed to DNA-damaging viruses through vaccinations.

Avoid vaccinations. Vaccine-induced, DNA-damaging viruses are showing up in a variety of cancers including lymph, lung, brain and bone.

Avoid foods that have been heated to high temperatures, such as barbecued meat, as this causes formation of powerful carcinogens. Any food that has been blackened is dangerous, including toast.

Avoid peanuts and corn products as these are often high in aflatoxins, which are potent carcinogens. Fluoride can inhibit DNA-repair enzymes.

Avoid fluoridated water, toothpaste and processed foods.

Beyond Health has approved a reverse osmosis system that effectively removes fluoride. Defects in DNA repair will increase the risk of developing cancer after being exposed to X-rays and chemicals. Certain nutrients are known to support the DNA repair process. These include vitamins B3, B6, B12, and folate, zinc and L-carnitine. Most Americans are deficient in one or more of these nutrients.

According to the USDA, 73 percent of Americans are deficient in zinc, and 40 percent are deficient in B12. To optimize DNA repair, eat a diet rich in fresh, organic vegetables and fruits, and take high-quality nutritional supplements. Everyone should, at the very least, be on a superior vitamin/mineral formula.

The next step in the cancer process is promotion. This is when a small cluster of initiated cancer cells grows larger. These cells will not grow unless a precise group of conditions are met, allowing their growth-control mechanisms to be overridden.

Certain foods are known to promote tumor growth and spread. Sugar, excess omega-6 oils and excess animal protein all promote cancer. Cancer cells differ from normal cells in that they are totally dependent on sugar to produce energy. So raising the sugar content of the blood feeds cancer cells and helps them grow. In addition, increased blood insulin is a powerful promoter of tumor growth and spread. Oils high in omega-6s such as corn, safflower, sunflower, peanut, soybean and canola oils are known to support cancer progression. Never eat these oils, or any of the thousands of products made with them, including baked goods and salad dressings.

Perhaps the most significant factor of all is animal protein and most especially dairy protein. Animal protein, beyond what can be used for growth and daily repairs, promotes cancer, and the average American eats ten times too much. Excess animal protein is able to turn cancer on in experimental animals 100 percent of the time! A high-protein diet increases estrogen, and excess estrogen is known to promote a number of cancers. Protein also acidifies the body and cancer thrives in an acid environment. Animal protein also contains large amounts of the amino acid methionine. Excess methionine is known to be a cancer promoter. Preventing and Reversing Promotion Cancer promotion can be reversed.

By eliminating cancer promoters and maximizing cancer inhibitors, it is possible to turn cancer off! We know fresh fruits and vegetables are cancer inhibitors—eat lots of them. We know that sugar, omega-6 oils and animal protein promote cancer—avoid them. Omega-6 oils not only promote cancer, they also suppress the immune system. Eat plenty of omega-3 oils to offset this effect; supplement with flax and fish oils.

Turn cancer off by avoiding animal protein; this means avoiding meat, eggs, dairy and fish except in very small quantities. Avoid fruit juices; they contain too much easily-absorbable sugar. Cancer is highly iron dependent. Avoid iron-rich foods such as red meat. Avoiding fluoride is also important as fluoride can increase tumor growth by 25 percent. Fat soluble toxins bioaccumulate in the body. Their synergistic effect can be a powerful cancer promoter.

The average person is accumulating hundreds of such chemicals, including pesticides, styrene, PCBs, dioxins, phthalates and fire retardants. The only reliable way to get rid of them is with regular saunas, which have become as necessary as regular exercise.

Chronic stress substantially increases free radical formation and also severely depresses the immune system. Both promote cancer. Using stress-reducing techniques such as meditation are important.

Metastasis The final stage of cancer is when it invades neighboring or distant tissues. Once again, a precise set of conditions must be met to allow this to happen. This stage of cancer causes death, but it too is reversible. Preventing Metastasis When cancer cells enter the blood stream and get transported to other locations, they become very vulnerable to attack by the immune system. Strong immunity is critical to prevention. Cancer cells require special enzymes to invade other tissues. Studies have found that inhibiting these enzymes stops the spread of the cancer.

Plant flavonols found in fruits and vegetables, such as quercitin and luteolin, are known to interfere with these enzymes. Nutrition Eating lots of fruits and vegetables is probably the single most important thing you can do to prevent or reverse cancer. Evidence is overwhelming that common vitamins, minerals and plant chemicals interfere with the cancer process at every level. Many chemicals found in plant foods are capable of turning cancer cells back into normal cells. Certain flavonoids found in vegetables have been found to suppress and even to kill cancer cells. In fact, food and nutritional supplements have a far more powerful effect on cancer than chemotherapy.

Since almost all Americans are deficient in vitamins and minerals, supplements are necessary. Here is a list of the nutrients known to inhibit cancer: vitamins A, all the Bs, C, D, E, beta carotene, choline, selenium, acetyl L-carnitine, alpha lipoic acid, zinc, magnesium, flavonoids and omega-3 oils. Nutrition improves immunity. Immune cells have a higher metabolic rate, and therefore, need more nutrients. Water soluble nutrients such as B vitamins and vitamin C are not stored well in the body and need constant replacement. When this does not happen, immunity is quickly affected. Whenever the immune system responds to a threat, billions of immune cells are needed quickly. These cells will be limited by the amount of nutrients available for their construction. Any vitamin or mineral deficiency will quickly be felt, impairing immunity. 

 The bad news is that cancer is an out-of-control epidemic. The good news is that cancer is a complex disease requiring the successful completion of many steps to make it happen—this provides us with multiple opportunities for its prevention and reversal. The most powerful preventive and healing tools are fresh fruits and vegetables plus high quality supplements.

Caroline Sutherland is internationally renowned for her gifted ability as a medical intuitive, and specializes in breaking through the body’s health and wellness code to reveal some of its veiled mysteries.

What is a medical intuitive??

Medical intuition is the ability to see beyond the normal layers of perception into subtle levels below the surface, helping you to find solutions to the health questions that affect us all.  She can read your body.  It is incredible.

Together we are doing a series, Transforming Cancer, One Idea at a Time…..

We feel it is so important to get this information out to everyone who is affected by cancer.  We talked about people just don’t know this and we have to spread the word.  So please help us pass this on.  Every person knows someone who is touched by cancer…..the numbers are so huge…we can help them.  PASS THIS ON TO THEM<ALL YOUR FRIENDS<AQUAINTENCES who all can pass it on too, so it will reach the people that need this information.

We discussed the importance of integrating the body with emotions, we are BODY, MIND, and SOUL.  Everything is connected.  We cannot simply take care of our spiritual self and leave our physical body in an unhealthy state.  It is important to get your physical body to match your spiritual body.  When the physical body lines up, lights go on, you experience a higher level of mastery and growth.

If you’re sick, chances are you’re addicted to certain foods, behaviors, and thoughts. Anything that has power over you and that you have difficulty letting go of is an addiction.  This can be anything and you can release them, it is possible and it is most certainly possible to heal from cancer or any other disease.  We experience miracles every day…why not today….why not you?

Deepak Chopra claims that all illness is the result of addiction.  Its as if these addictions have a hold on us and are robbing us of our vital force and taking us down cell by cell.  I experienced this through my healing journey with cancer, so I know it to be true.

I also know that our bodies are capable of healing at all levels.  The foods we eat, our environment, our relationships, our past, our thoughts all impact the cells of our body.  One step at a time we can make changes to our life and heal.  Speak to your body and encourage it to repair on all levels.

Caroline provided information and resources for low dose chemo, diet, tests to have done, immune system support and so much more.  Watch for the audio so you can get all this important information.   To make sure you get this audio in your email go to

Heal yourself in 15 days – You are what you absorb (part three)

by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor

In part three, we look at a powerful principle of nutrition: You aren’t what you eat; you are what you ABSORB.

Many people suffer from poor digestion. In fact, you might say that most people aren’t able to absorb the nutrients they swallow, so they remain in a state of nutritional starvation even though they’re taking supplements that would otherwise be quite helpful.

These people tend to scratch their heads, wondering why all the nutrients they’re swallowing aren’t having the positive effects they had hoped for. The answer to this conundrum is found in enhancing the absorption of those nutrients.

Strong stomach acid is good for you

Pharmaceutical pill pushers have convinced many people that stomach acid is bad for your health. By promoting diseases like “acid reflux” or GERD, they misinform consumers into believing that heartburn and stomach pain are caused by too much stomach acid. But the truth is that in most (but not all) cases people actually suffer from weak stomach acid and they need stronger stomach acid to properly digest foods.

It’s easy to test this by swallowing a teaspoon (or so) of vinegar with your meal and asking yourself whether it feels better or worse. For a surprisingly large percentage of people, the extra vinegar halts the pain they might normally feel after such a meal. This is a strong indication that they lack proper stomach acid production and could benefit from stronger acid. Vinegar is acidic, you see. Not as acidic as stomach acid, but far more acidic than most foods or beverages.

Consumers have been persuaded by drug advertising to swallow over-the-counter antacid tablets — products that are actually very alkaline and therefore lower the acidity (i.e. raise the pH) of the liquids in your stomach.

What most people don’t realize is that minerals require an acidic digestive environment to be properly digested and absorbed. If you lack proper stomach acid, you won’t be able to properly absorb minerals even if you swallow them! And this can lead to mineral deficiencies that promote the development of diabetes, cancer, chronic pain, arthritis and even heart problems (among other things).

So how do you encourage the production of healthy stomach acid? In my experience, drinking fresh vegetable juices each day — especially celery and cabbage juices — greatly boosts stomach health, ultimately supporting healthy stomach acid production.

Digestive enzymes from living foods

Digestion is a complex process. It requires biochemical and physical processes to break down ingested substances into their nutritional components. This process is significantly aided by digestive enzymes which exist naturally in living foods (fresh, raw vegetable and fruit juices, for example).

Heating foods (cooking them) destroys all digestive enzymes. This is one reason why cooked foods steal life away from people while raw, living foods impart life. Living foods usually come with their own digestive enzymes, aiding your digestive processes in breaking down and absorbing nutrients.

Dead foods — which include anything pasteurized — stress your liver, pancreas and gallbladder by requiring these organs to produce extra digestive enzymes that are missing from the foods themselves. Because many people suffer from poor digestive organ function, they have difficulties absorbing the nutrients they’ve swallowed.

Probiotics

Many people suffer from serious intestinal flora imbalances. Western medicine, for the most part, remains astonishingly ignorant about the importance of intestinal flora to overall health, but those who study more holistic medicine understand the important role that these “inner bacteria” play in your health: The bacteria in your gut actually digest and transform nutrients you eat into other nutrients.

They are, in essence, nutrient transformers that operate inside your body, producing nutrients needed for your health. That’s why people who take antibiotics often suffer serious digestive side effects in the days that follow: They’ve wiped out all the friendly intestinal bacteria that were providing essential nutrients!

It’s easy to remedy this imbalance: Take probiotic supplements on a regular basis. This will feed your digestive tract the friendly bacteria you need.

And don’t fall for the marketing sham of eating yogurt, thinking it’s loaded with probiotics. Virtually all store-bought yogurt is pasteurized, and pasteurization kills the friendly bacteria. This makes most “probiotic yogurt” products nothing more than a dishonest marketing gimmick.

By the way, if you want healthy intestinal flora, it’s also important to reduce your consumption of dietary sugars. When you consume more sugars, you alter the bacterial population in your gut, causing a shift toward bacteria that feed on sugars. As you alter your diet to exclude refined sugars, the population of bacteria in your gut follows suit, shifting towards a non-sugar bacterial population.

Here are some VERY SIMPLE changes I know you can do with me.

25 ways to improve your health and happiness in 2010
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor

(NaturalNews) The New Year is upon us, and for many people, it includes a New Year’s resolution for achieving improved health and happiness in 2010. Here are twenty-five health-enhancing ideas to help you accomplish that goal.

#1 – Replace sodas or soft drinks with tea or water.

#2 – Commit to eating one raw fruit (or serving of vegetables) at every meal.

#3 – Add just 5 minutes a day to your exercise routine. Don’t have an exercise routine? Start with 5 minutes a day!

#4 – Get more sunshine!

#5 – Learn some Pilates. It’s probably the #1 exercise system for core strength and flexibility.

#6 – Drink a superfood smoothie every day.

#7 – Buy more indoor plants: They purify the air in your home.

#8 – Take a quality, wild-harvested fish oil supplement that contains vitamin D.

#9 – Eat more quinoa: It’s a high-protein, low-carb “grain” that can easily replace rice or couscous.

#10 – When you get out of bed each morning, do five sit-ups first. It sounds simple, but just 5 sit-ups a day can make a difference.

#11 – Instead of trying to find a parking spot so close to the grocery store, park farther away. You’ll get a little more walking exercise and a little more sunshine.

#12 – Get a good water filter so you can stop drinking tap water (or bottled water).

#13 – Pick up a “gentle” art like Tai-Qi or Yoga. It will reduce your stress and improve your physical stamina.

#14 – Take a relaxing hot bath with epsom salts and soothing herbs like lavender. It will do wonders for your mind and your muscles.

#15 – Get a professional massage! Massage therapy is really, really healthy, and it’s a great way to reward yourself for some of the other accomplishments you’re making.

#16 – Grow your own sprouts! With a simple, low-cost sprouting machine, you can grow and eat your own sprouts. Eating just one ounce of sprouts a day still had a huge impact on preventing cancer and boosting immune function.

#17 – Prepare for a Spring garden. Sure, it’s cold and snowy right now, but make a commitment to start a garden this Spring, and you’ll reap many health benefits in the months ahead.

#18 – Get a mini-trampoline and do some rebounding in your living room. You can even watch movies or documentary DVDs at the same time.

#19 – Make a point to get at least eight hours of sleep for 2-3 nights a week (or more, if you can). Most people are sleep deprived, and the health cost is enormous.

#20 – Start visiting local farmer’s markets so that you eat more local food in 2010. You’ll be healthier and happier as a result.

#21 – Got a job you don’t like? Quit it! Downgrade your lifestyle to live on less money, then pursue what you really enjoy. Being happy in a small house is better than being miserable in a big one.

#22 – Get off those medications! Make a point to learn how to safely and gradually get yourself off all the medications you can by eliminating underlying imbalances or illnesses. The fewer medications you take, the healthier you’ll be!

#23 – Throw out your television! Are you still watching cable TV or satellite TV? It’s a complete waste of your life (but you already knew that). Disconnect the cable. Read more books and get your information online where news sources are more independent and intelligent.

#24 – Make a decision to think of food as nourishment instead of entertainment. Eat what your body needs, not what your taste buds desire.

#25 – Teach others how to be healthy! The more you talk with others about healthy habits, the more you’ll follow them yourself.

I literally fell to the ground, collapsed in a pile on the floor, screaming and crying.  I was in a state of shock for a few weeks, walking through time quite unaware.

You will be embraced by your doctors and the team of experts to help you in your first steps of this journey.  Initially you are so overwhelmed in a new world with a new language and words you have never heard.  You will want to have someone by your side you trust and love to help you absorb and understand all the information.  Your medical doctors will advise you on tests and procedures to determine the exact diagnosis.  They will also give you options for treatment.

It is a complete whirlwind of tests, procedures, and medical information .  While still in shock, you are asked to analyze all this information and then make decisions.  These decisions affect your entire life. 

Because not only does cancer affect YOU, emotionally, mentally and physically, it affects everyone in your life.  It is so important that you are surrounded by all the people you love and who can support you.  Each can help you in some way, they will each play a role.  In my workbook, Be A Cancer Survivor: A Process to Wellness, it lists all the different roles and helps you sort and assign roles.  Share it with those you know with cancer click here.

It is extremely confusing, partly because of the shock and emotional turmoil.  Don’t be too hasty in your decision making.  Make sure you have all the facts and information.  Always seek another opinion.  Every doctor doesn’t know all the answers.  A good doctor will be researching and consulting with other doctors and bringing in a multi-discipline team.  Every aspect of you and your life should be addressed, mental, emotional, spiritual, family, etc.  It is proven that mental and emotional health has a great influence on your physical health.  Also your spiritual self can influence the outcome of your health.

In order to get something new, Move out of what you expect
To a different set of outcomes, taylor your conscious mind.

Healing implies there is something to be healed then there must be a disease.
These are artificial boundaries we have created. It’s harder to manifest a change when
we come from a consciousness of disease.

We are all one spirit, the mind and body encompass one spirit
Set aside all problems and struggle

Its proven from quantum physics there is time travel, protons can travel backwards and forwards in time simultaneously.

Our body doesn’t know I am too old to change, our body doesn’t have that sense.

The awareness of what you were what the body was still exists as a hologram and you can access it. We can access this awareness. Its being proven every day.

I know I know this sounds crazy to the logical mind. Don’t use logic trust believe because it is
happening right now to others. Would you be willing to open to the possibility?

Why wouldn’t you, if it can’t hurt you, if it could help YOU?

With focussed intent and trust and belief, you can move back in time right before this incident, cancer, disease etc. happened. We can change that pattern of molecules, reconfigure that pattern and can instantly experience change. The cool thing is, it is actually scientifically proven.

This is what matrix energetics can do….whoo hoo! The time is here.

Come back and listen to the founder’s daughter, Justice Bartlett who I am chatting with tomorrow on Truly Alive radio.
