The New Healing Paradigm allows us to conceive of the possibility that healing is within us, and that we are not limited to only one method or system of treatment to ensure our own optimal health. It also allows for the fact that we are capable of being active participants in the healing process.
 
According the old paradigm, if we did not feel well we had to consult someone who had studied a specific method and approach to healing, and we had to do as they told us, without question. Also, even though statistically there was not a one hundred percent success rate using this method, it was the only one to be employed.
 
The New Healing Paradigm assures us that we are the best expert in the whole world on our body and ourselves. Nobody knows us or our body better than we do. We live with ourselves day in and day out. We also know that we are complex beings and that we don't only consist of a physical body, but that we have a mental, emotional and spiritual body too.
 
It therefore follows, that when we have a physical ailment, the root cause is not necessarily only physical. We have all experienced at some stage being very tired after a long day at work or play, and then if we get unexpectedly get a nice surprise somehow we seem to perk up and not feel as tired anymore, and are able to happily continue the day far longer than we would have, had we not had the lovely surprise.
 
Conversely, we all know how it feels to be having a really good day, and then unexpectedly one receives some bad news and suddenly one feels old, tired and unable to be energetic and enthusiastic. In both those cases, the physical being was not the one that changed, but the mental and emotional bodies experienced the change, and the physical body simply reflected those changes.
 
What the new paradigm teaches us is that we are the owners of our own health and wellbeing. As such, we are free to choose and use whatever healing modality, or combination of healing modalities, is helpful to us.
 
Energy Medicine focuses on helping all our different bodies; physical, emotional, mental and spiritual to have open and free communication with one another, thus promoting optimal health and the enhancing the ability of the body to heal itself.
 
Energy Medicine is by no means exclusive and is actually complementary to any and all other healing methods. The New Healing Paradigm encourages us to choose and use a whole variety of healing methods for optimal health. The same way as we all like different foods and sometimes react badly to other foods, we can choose to explore different healing modalities and see which ones agree with and work best for us.
