Ah, just read your article. I don't wish to belittle you, or it in any way. However, I'm at a stage of sharing at this point in time where I prefer "cutting to the chase" rather than candy-coating things. For what it's worth, I spent a good 7-8 years believing similar ideas around viruses, bacteria, fungi, toxins, etc. So simply put, I was once in agreement with these ideas. And I also understand that the vast majority of alternative health practitioners, researchers, etc. believe in these sorts of things.

Simply put, I realize I'm sharing an INCREDIBLY OBSCURE AND MINORITY OPINION in this thread. So don't feel bad if you decide I'm just crazy. Most people do to be honest. I've got a thick skin.

My only wish is that you consider/contemplate what I'm suggesting in this thread, neither outright rejecting or accepting a word I say. Instead, take my ideas into the dream world or into your intuition for a period of time and see if anything percolates. I can't think of a better way to handle them honestly.

Now, all the being said, I don't believe a single word of this article, nor its fundamental premises. This is a marketing ploy beginning to end. In a nutshell, to believe in this is to believe you are and could be at any moment a helpless victim of "nefarious forces/fungi/bacteria/toxins/etc." that are "out there". As hopefully you've realized by now, I believe things are the other way around, and it is the "Internal forces" (thoughts & emotions) that are the real cause of disease. If you're on this board, at a minimum, you recognize we're living in an inverted reality on, at a minimum, a few topics (government, media, etc.). I'm simply expanding on this notion and suggesting the same is true with health/medicine as well. You gotta really stretch those brain-muscles when contemplating this stuff, no doubt!

All the diseases mentioned in the article have perfectly rational explanations, originating in the mind due to an unavoidable psychosomatic conflict. I'll spare you trying to itemize them. And that's not even a worthwhile exercise. My experience has taught me that the only chance I have of convincing somebody of this is when I can speak directly to a current or recent disease they've had (above and beyond run-of-the-mill colds/flus/headaches, etc.). As such, if you've never had "lung cancer", then what I've shared in this thread won't resonate with you because you've never gone through the specific psychological conflict that I'm suggesting causes it. At best, all you can think is "maybe, maybe not"!

What I'm suggesting, without putting a finer point on it, is that ALL diseases originate from a life situation that causes us a psychological conflict, that we feel threatened by in some way. The most common conflicts include - Separation conflict, self-devaluation conflict, territory/nest conflict threat, identity conflict, sexual conflict, death/fright/scare conflict, abandonment/existence conflict, loss conflict, etc. These are all high-level generalized categories of conflicts, not meant to explain each and every specific disease per se. Beneath each are variations depending on the actual disease, which are far more specific.

All adults have effectively had all of these conflicts, to one degree or another in their lifetimes, and will continue to do so. They are unavoidable. The difference between those who end up with lifelong, chronic, debilitating ailments versus those who suffer shorter-duration and lesser-degree ailments can be attributed to the person's ability to -> Forgive/Forget/Accept/Allow/Let-Go/Release/Come-To-Terms-With these psychological conflicts, whatever they may be. And I totally get it, easier said than done in many cases. No two situations are ever identical, nor perceived in the same way. The impact, intensity and duration of these conflicts is a completely subjective matter.

The good news is, it sounds like you do have some broader spiritual inclinations which enable you to better hear and consider what I'm saying. Case in point, if you've come across the idea of "being present" (Eckhart Tolle being one popular example), you'll no doubt see what he (and many others before him) and I are suggesting. The practice of being present (e.g. meditation, silent sitting, neutral observation) releases these conflicts naturally, so the psychological conflict program (thought-ruminating) can be more gracefully released instead of regularly and continuously being "thought about" over and over and over again. It will "come up" at some point in one's "Presence practice", but if it can be neutrally looked at, it will ultimately be released, facilitating a "healing" as it were.

And better yet, there's a reason "Forgiveness" is such a powerful practice, often more powerful than presence in the early stages. It does indeed work wonders for mind, body and soul! And this includes, more than anything else, forgiveness of oneself for any and all perceived failures/mistakes/errors that one feels they made in their lifetime. And again, everybody struggles with this to one degree or another as it is unavoidable. We all "beat ourselves up" from time to time. The trick is to "catch yourself' when you see it happening, and find ways and strategies to get over it. Having a spiritual practice and "handing it over to God/Creator" for resolution is one such strategy.

All this being said, I realize my ideas are radical, possibly earth-shattering when first encountered. I had a hard time initially accepting them as well. It takes time to shift your way of thinking about health and disease. It just doesn't happen overnight. I was deep into toxins, terrain, poisons, 5G, electricity for years upon years. And I eventually grew frustrated when I could never find any "smoking guns" where one could definitively say "This" causes "That".

For example "Aluminum causes Alzheimers"..... or.... "MMR vaccine causes autism"......or....tobacco chemicals case cancers".

No such evidence exists. It's all general. Like "eating non-organic foods" can cause XYZ cancer. Or "using deodorants with aluminum sulfide leads to Alzheimers. No matter which type of terrain theory idea I investigated carefully, I always came away realizing that the the disease attributed to the toxin is always the EXCEPTION and never the rule.

And I looked and looked for years. Never once could I find a study suggesting, say, long-term mercury exposure leads to colon cancer....or long-term arsenic exposure leads to multiple sclerosis, or whatever. I just completely.made those up by the way. But you get the gist hopefully.

Just like there is not a single scientific experiment demonstrating human-to-human transmission of "germs", likewise there is not a single scientific experiment/finding suggesting long-term exposure to "Toxin X" leads to "Disease Y" - not even smoking and lung cancer which everybody blindly accepts as axiomatic today. I've had 4 relatives that smoked for at least 40+ years. Not a one of them died of, let alone ever had lung cancer....but one did die of emphysema. And for the record, I'm in no way suggesting smoking is a good idea. It's definitely a slow poisoning of the lungs. I'm just saying it doesn't cause cancer.

Anyway, there's a lot here for you to chew on, if you so choose. I understand you might be turned off but what I'm suggesting, as the majority are. But if you feel so inclined, I'd be interested to hear what your dreamtime and intuitive inclinations rustle up!

Thanks for listening....
