The Teacher Must Also Be The Student

As a at home researcher for sport, I would say actual trials and studies provide a value to the rest of us. That would make sense to think this way and in fact most people put all of their value in these studies. I would like to provide a flip side to these studies that might have not been fully thought of before now. Can a comparison of two living entities really provide solid evidence based knowledge? In one breath we claim us humans have so many different ways we are nothing alike and unique in our individuality. Multiple Sclerosis for example is commonly referred to as the so called, "Snowflake Disease." I actually cringe every time I hear this reference by the way. So how can we all be so different, but also be compared as the same for studies?

In history, we have alcohol being used to make babies gums numb, cigarettes being used during pregnancy as a safe option, sports without protective gear, rides in the back of trucks, no widows in bedrooms, and so on it all goes. Did studies help in these cases to make a safer world we can confidently say without a doubt have changed lives for the better good? The answer is an obvious, yes! My point in questioning the value placed on the so called, "Science" is that science is constantly evolving and changing. When realistically science has not really changed, has it? Rather, we as a human species have just learned what has already existed and had not been learned by our current species.

A study holds so much value to some that they will run out to go grab the latest drug or supplement to hit the shelves. All due to yet again the so called, "Science" says it is going to change the life by a percentage based off of however many studied responded. What exactly do we know about the studied participants? For example, was all of their diets exactly the same? Did they take any other medications or supplements? Do they have a history of trauma making their biology much different from the baseline humans? Are they sleeping well every night? Do they ever go out in the sun or are they working the night shift? How may times a day do they use the restroom? You see, so may variables here to really get these studies to be as solid as the scientists are always claiming they are.

Personally the alternative to putting all your money on a Vegas black numbered 24 and spinning the wheel, is to admit these studies really could never hold the amount of value they are being given. I will share where I have gravitated despite still needing to well, read the studies for others validation. I seriously never read them for myself anymore. I find them boring and mediocre knowledge at best.

I instead rely greatly on raising my God given energy. I am an electrical being connected to the earth, the sky, the wind, the water, the sun, the stars, the moon, the nature. I rely on my very own body responding to the sway of the question, "Is this for me?" A sway forward is a yes and a sway backwards is a no. Don't believe me that I encompass these super powers? Well guess what, I can definitely find a study to back up my claims here. Why would I put my value into someone else's research when my body can tell truth from fiction. One reference if you too would like to learn this skill is the book, " The Emotional Code" by Bradley Nelson. I keep saying it as loud as I can possibly reach, "I am not special!" Humans all possess the ability to tap into their own super human. Sure I can teach you how, but are you ready to be the student?

In life, we should never be so arrogant to think we will not again be the student. A humbled heart focused on a balance of being the teacher to the unknowing and then in the very same day becoming the the transforming student eager to expand in their own unknowing. This is the lesson I wish to leave all of you invested in the words I have spued from my souls surface. Value the connection you should have to yourself, to your God, to your earth, to your nature. Value the truths that live inside your being. Value the evidence you seek by witnessing the movement of life. If I were to tell you it was not Spring yet here in North Carolina where I peacefully reside, because it had not reached the stamped date on the 2023 calendar saying so; would you believe me? I know Spring has arrived here, because the movement of nature never misses! The flowers have sprung. Pollen has blown. The bees have risen. The ants have marched. The snakes have slithered. Sprouts have sprouted. Nature tells us when it is Spring. I not only can witness the shift, I can feel it with all of my senses. This is the power of you! This is the power of finding that deep connection you have always sought from a partner, a parent, a friend. That connection must first be made within yourself. I have made many connections in my lifetime of forty-one years, but absolutely none of them compare to the one I have made with the earth around me and myself.

In closing please understand the mind is the sickness within, it is the prison of anxiety, it is the limitations, it is the doubt, it is the need for evidence based literature(which by the way is a trauma response), it is the fear, etc. The mind is also the love, it is the calm, it is the sanity, it is the healing, it is the peace. Death has become oh so tragic and feared, yet we all do have this in common; we will die. While I do absolutely enjoy every minute of living my life now even in the challenged moments, I also am at peace with feeding back the earth that has fed me for so long. I am not in fear of disease or even my own undertaking. I know that life is meant to be experienced. I would hope that all of you experience the life that you actually want to the fullest! Go after that love connection that is so strong it pulls you in with the locked eyes of a magnet. Go get on that zip line to fly across the vibrant forest. Roll the windows down while you go seventy on that old country road to let that crisp morning air hit you in the face. Join that choir you never thought you would be good enough for. Paint with every brilliant stroke you were meant to splash onto that canvas. Living is not face forward in the new and latest study. No, that is not truly helpful. Life is found in the living, the experiencing, the being-part. I never actually found my health in a study. I found my life outside with nature and within myself. I can now educate, because I was taught. However, my best knowledge has always been in becoming the student. I will always be the student.
