What does a Systems-Based health model actually require?

It asks for a shift in:

1: Timeframe: Long-term healing, not short-term symptom relief
2: Patient role: Active participant, not passive recipient
3: Practitioner role: Investigator and educator, not just a prescriber
4: View of symptoms: As signals, not enemies to silence
5: Healing philosophy: The body is designed to heal, given the right conditions

I love this Sri Lankan Fable.

The Judgement of King Kakille:

Once there was a king called Kakille. When he was ruling the country there were heavy rains. A poor old man's house collapsed. He was so angry he went to see the king to complain about the mason. The king summoned the mason to the palace and ordered him to be executed.

The mason was so scared and begged the king not to kill him. He said that it wasn't his fault. The pot he used was so big that he had mixed the clay with too much water. The potter should be punished for this. The king thought for a moment and summoned the potter to the palace.

The potter begged the king not to execute him. He told the king that while he was making the pot a woman kept walking up and down the road and smiling at him. He was distracted and couldn't make the pot properly. So the potter told the king that the woman should be punished.

The woman was summoned. She was horrified and explained why she had walked past the potter's workshop several times. She had given some gold to a jeweller to make a necklace. But the jeweller hadn't finished the necklace in time. So she had to go there several times until he had completed his work. The jeweller should be punished.

The king thought about it and ordered the jeweller to come to the palace.

The king ordered the jeweller executed by being trampled to death by an elephant.

The jeweller was a thin, bony man. He thought for a moment and told the king that the elephant would be hurt if he trampled his body. But he said that he knew a fat shopkeeper who could be easily trampled. The king thought it was a good idea and ordered the shopkeeper to be brought to the palace and executed.

So a man was punished who didn't know anything about the crime.

Capacity precedes intensity. In almost every domain of human performance, we adapt best when we first build endurance, tolerance, or volume, and only then push for maximum output.

1: Start slow
2: Stay consistent
3: Increase volume/time involvement
4: Increase intensity

Start each day with a grateful heart.

Gratitude has the power to shift your focus from what you lack to the abundance of what you already have.

So take a deep breath and think of three things you are grateful for right now.
