hiri is a fi ghter, literally. She was in the army for many years and a master marksman. However she also had never been able to hold down a relationship, she had a sex addiction problem and her bi- sexuality had always troubled her. She had been raped many times. After the last incident, at age 24, she sat for hours, with her gun in her hand, contemplating whether to end it all, or live. Now in her late 30s she wanted to move on. She had trained as life coach, an NLP master practitioner and is very knowledgeable about personal development. She had done a lot but her health issue still plagued her. Plus she wanted to have a ‘real’ relationship that did not revolve around sex and one where she loved the man she was with.

When she came to see me she wanted to know why she was sick. Why her sexuality like it was. Why could she not hold down a relationship. Were there any connections between the rapes and her heart disorder? What could she do about it and why her doctor, who she respected a lot, could not answer any of these questions.

I see many people who are looking for answers to why they have a disease. I admit most of them are not as dramatic as Shiri’s case, but those people, when they ask their doctors or anyone in the medical profession, are unable or even dismissive of their clients asking them ‘Why am I sick?’.

So why is a person sick? And why don’t the medical profession know why?

In my book called ‘Why am I Sick?’ I describe the state of health in the world. It is amazing to think that in 2010 one of the biggest killers, cancer, even with the 3 trillion dollars spent on war against it since 1980s, that even more people are dying from it than 30 years ago. No cure has been found. The only interventions that the medical profession have are chemotherapy,

radiotherapy and surgery, therapies that have remained the same since the 1950s. What has happened is that more and more money has been pumped into fi nding more complex toxic drugs, more focussed radiation treatments, more precise surgery, but at no time have these medical researcher/doctors, who are supposed to be some of the smartest people on the planet, have they asked – what causes cancer? Why is it there? Could there be a link to stress and cancer? Could a person’s stressful experiences, such as a divorce, sacking, rape have something to do with their disease?

Research at the start of this century uncovered that chronic stress does certainly account for almost every major illness. [Segerstrom and Miller 2004]. And that cells change how they function and their structure based on their environment. [Lipton and Bensch 1991]. That a cell cannot be in a stress state (working) and also repairing (resting) at the same time. [Lipton et al 1991]. That as we are in a stressed state the heart is sending waves of energy throughout our bodies and also out into our world, affecting everything we do, how we behave, who we interact with our environment – see Heart Math Institute and Rupert Sheldrake – Morphic Fields.

What this all means is that there is a direct link between stress and disease; that certain diseases are caused by specifi c stressful events. These events get stored in our bodies and our brain at the same time affecting our whole nervous system and subsequently our heart, our behaviour and our environment.

However disease is not something that affects just one organ, it affects ALL of us, from our mind, to our emotions, from our whole nervous system, to getting right into our heart, from our interactions with our friends and family, to how we behave at work, to what we eat, to how we feel psychologically and spiritually. Disease,
