Stress hormones shut down the immune system to conserve energy so I can run away from
the threat. And I go, it's so powerful
at shutting down the immune system that stress hormones are used therapeutically.
I go, "what do you mean?" If I am gonna transplant
an organ from one person to another, the recipient of that transplant,
their immune system by definition is going to try and reject the transplant
cause it's foreign tissue. I say, "so what do doctors do, before they
transplant an organ?" I say, “they give the patient stress hormones!”
Because when they get the stress hormones it inhibits the immune function from rejecting
the graft. So what's the point?
My god, stress hormones are so effective at shutting down the immune system
that they use it therapeutically to stop the function of that immune system.
So I go, "so why is it relevant?" I go, "because we're put into fear."
And everybody who listens is now afraid. The difference between, let's say, last year's
flu season, I'm coming on to the news and I go,
"the flu season's back this year and as usual you have to take care of yourself
and about .1% of the population will have severe problems with this and..."
but that's annual, that's the way it is. Or I come on this year and I say,
"my god, the flu is here we're all gonna die!
Millions of people are gonna die!" And all of the sudden it's like,
"that's a different news report than last year,
that scares the hell out of me!" So, stress is opening up our system
from attack, from anything, from electromagnetic fields to viruses
and we have to understand that stress is the bigger problem in the immune system.
Well, the first straight forward advice is this.
We have to maintain our physiology and our health.
I said, "well how do you do that?" And I go, "you know it's not that difficult."
The number one thing is this, first of all, eat food that is good for you.
Not industrial farmed, but organic, natural, healthy food.
Industrial farmed food is loaded with chemicals that influence our system in a very negative
way. Taking care of your nutrition, number one,
is important because we nourish our cells and if you shorten
the supply of nourishment, of course you're gonna be open to sickness.
Number two is to take advantage of vitamins and supplements
and things to support us because our food isn't that great.
Anything we can do outside to enhance our immune system,
let me just add especially vitamin C. When we support ourselves that way,
we strengthen the immune system. And then third thing,
watch what you thinking. Because the moment you are thinking of stressful
things like, "oh my god, I'm not working for weeks
and my job, my salary, do I have any money?" Fear comes from that.
"Can I pay the rent?” Fear comes from that. "Am I gonna die?" of course, fear comes from
that. And I go, "these fears
are the primary things that inhibit the function of the immune system."
You wanna stay well? Norman Cousins who healed himself from a lethal
disease, he locked himself in a hotel room
and got all kinds of comedies, Marx Brothers and things like that.
And what did he do? He just sat there and enjoyed life and laughed
and did all that and he overcame an illness that should've killed him.
This is an example of what is so important. If we do not focus on the problems that they
keep throwing at us and you start to look at your life and say,
"am I okay? Yeah, I'm pretty good. How’s my family? We're good, we're healthy."
Even if there's a flu, half the people tested with the flu don't
even have symptoms! So, it's not as lethal as they say, it's the
fear of death. It's the problem that we must deal with today.
"Am I open to die?" And I say, "everybody's open to die!"
If you do really well and you persevere and when you die
you're gonna go to this place called heaven and I go, "consider this!
That we were born into heaven!" That we came here to create.
That's what we're doing, we're creating. And I say, "when we're creating it right,
heaven on earth is here." When we're creating it wrong,
struggle is here. And all of a sudden I say,
"oh my god, don't wait till you die, that you're gonna go to heaven."
You heard, this is it. This is where you came to create.
What do you wanna create? Love?
Coronavirus? You can create any damn thing you want!
This is creation place! But if you don't know that your creations
are being controlled, then we become a victim of a world out of
control. And yet we, we're the creators,
we gave in to other people's beliefs.
And then we, now are creating not with our wishes and desires,
we're creating with the program. And I say, "and just look at the moment that
we started with this whole conversation", I said, "where's the program taking us right
now?" And the answer is: fear, shutdown, loss of
community, breakdown of the system. I go, "we can learn or not."
That's it. And this is a learning moment.
Take your power back. You are beyond,
power-wise, beyond any virus that ever existed.
You are very powerful.
