Yet ultimately, seeing adversity as the way we all learn on planet Earth can be a valuable insight which allows us to embrace the virtue of acceptance . This acceptance can make our journey much easier. When approaching an alternative practitioner, it is helpful to arrive with an open mind. Many of these people put their heart and soul into their work, and offer time and patient education far beyond what you will find with allopathic practitioners. Yet consider in the long run what you will be paying, in the real as well as metaphoric sense, for your journey to wellness.
Many alternative practitioners see themselves primarily as healing facilitators .
Their goal is to help people achieve lasting results through treatment, lifestyle modification and education. Conditions being diagnosed by physicians these days like chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, lupus and other autoimmune diseases and depression are usually conditions which have a complex network of origins. In the alternative world, practitioners may seem like electricians tracking down many small shorts in house wiring. Similar to compromised house wiring, there can be glitches in the body's system integrity, manifesting as a breakdown or lack of wellness. Instead, contemplate your intentions for your own personal healing journey.
