I love reading people’s accounts of their experiences since they came across Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine. I come from a background where Western Medicine was the norm and nothing complementary was even considered. The doctor, pharmacist and, if necessary, the dentist were always our first ports of call, if we ever had a problem with our health. My parents always followed mainstream medicine and Dad would sing its praises until the cows came home.
My younger sister was the first in the family to seek outside the family’s way of looking after their health. She visited a naturopath and a chiropractor and seemed to benefit with pain relief from the services they offered. I was having some trouble with neck pain, so I too started seeing the naturopath and another chiropractor a friend recommended.
These were my only dabblings with other forms of healing apart from looking at Reiki for a very short period of time. The lady I used to see for Reiki sessions introduced me to Serge Benhayon and I began to experience the healing that Serge and the other Universal Medicine practitioners offer.
It’s a hackneyed expression, but my life changed in that first meeting with Serge. There was a true respecting and valuing of me as I felt truly met. As I became aware and felt the true reflection of love Serge presents, I recognised on a very deep level there was more to life than the superficial way we humans go about things.
This one meeting with Serge Benhayon inspired me to make many changes in the way I was living. In all the times I was visiting the chiropractor, I was always dubious about the neck wrenching and cracking I was experiencing. I eventually stopped going and now have Spinal Alignment Therapy with a Universal Medicine practitioner that is gentle and lovingly respects my body without all the harsher push, pull, crunch and crack that happened in a chiropractic visit.
Yesterday, I visited my local GP. I visited, not because I was ill, but to have my annual check-up. I also requested referrals for bone density testing and a full blood check. My doctor loves my visits as I am rarely ill. He has told me to keep doing whatever I’m doing, as he has never seen me looking so well and reckons I’m looking younger each time he sees me. That’s pretty good confirmation for combining both Western Medicine and what Universal Medicine offers as far as I’m concerned.
The Truth about Serge Benhayon 
Leaving our issues behind and opening up to what ever feels True to our bodies has never been so simple thanks to the teachings from Universal Medicine.
Regular check ups with a GP is so important – there is so much that can be picked up on earlier when we follow through with these conventional investigations. And yet the science of the body as we know it extends far beyond just physical wellness as we can feel a change in vitality, mood, energy levels etc often happening far before any physical evidence of the fact can be recorded. So yet again natural and conventional medicine make a great marriage.
Conventional medicine has so much to offer, and Natural Medicine also has so much to offer. In fact most conventional medicine actually originally came from Natural Medicines – for example Aspirin is chemically similar to salicin which was originally sourced from the bark of a tree Salix alba or white willow. It is truly amazing to be able to work with both of these ‘medicines’ hand in hand.
Upon reflection I remember growing up and feeling very reticent about conventional medicine and only using it on occasion, but also feeling very un-trusting of natural medicine too – I felt like I could not trust either of them and so often suffered pain and discomfort but not really daring to take anything for it. It was not till much later after having studied Biochemistry that I felt to then study naturopathy and years later I encountered Serge Benhayon – it was not till I met Serge, that I began to open up to conventional medicine and build back more trust with it. Today I feel how important it is to work with both hand in hand, where one is not more important than the other, but both together will offer the best options for us should we be needing them.
What I’ve found different in the approach of combining Western Medicine and Esoteric Medicine is that the inner being and it’s wellness, i.e., our well-being, is a significant part of our overall physical and mental health. I always knew there was a deeper reason to illness, that ill health conditions must have a symbolic meaning, a reason and a purpose, and Esoteric Medicine has helped me with that, but conversely great health has a basis too which is not just in caring for the body, it’s in allowing the inner being to be sourced from our soul and live in love, joy, harmony, stillness and truth. Even when the body is unwell if the being is love there is a tremendous feeling of wellness that transcends the physical body.
Serge Benhayon has inspired so many to make changes in their lives. One day this great man will be known for who he truly is.
A few years ago while having an esoteric healing session the practitioner asked me if I had ever fallen out of a tree. Well yes I had actually, when I was young from quite a height and landed on my back. My body had registered the impact and I had carried that energetic imprint with me for years. No other medical profession has ever asked me this question. And then I was asked if I had been in a car accident and I said no at the time but when reflecting back after the session I had had a car accident and the result was whip lase on my neck. I find it fascinating that the Esoteric practitioners work with the body in such a way that they can tap into the energetic imprints that are stored in our bodies. So therefore perhaps we should be far more respectful to our bodies than we currently are.
How amazing Mary that we can read the bodies past injuries and be able to apply the healing that opens us so that together we can take away the underly issues and bring True healing to our body.
Combining Western Medicine and Universal Medicine’s teachings, and modalities, is the recipe for well-being.
I have found Universal Medicine therapies very gentle in application, yet powerful in the way my body responds. I feel this is important because we can be so hard with the body, pushing it through our day to day living, harsh in exercise (no pain no gain), staying up late when we are tired, and then seeing people for therapies that may also be harsh. My experience is that my body responds beautifully to gentle and tender treatment, from myself and others. I really enjoy getting to know my body, it’s a wisdom that is overlooked but it can teach us so very much.
I find it absolutely fascinating what our bodies know if we listen. My body has always spoken to me but for years I have not listened instead I relied on my mind. Now I listen to my body and it tells and shows me the subtleties of life so that I can feel there’s a lot more to me than I first thought. Why we are not taught this as part of our education makes no sense to me because having the knowing brings a greater depth to life. I feel we are distracting ourselves and because of this we are only scratching the surface there’s so much more depth and quality to us than we care to admit.
Serge Benhayon, is incredibly inspiring in so many ways, ‘This one meeting with Serge Benhayon inspired me to make many changes in the way I was living.’
It makes sense for our relationship with our body, how we live and our self-love and self-care for ourselves to contribute to our wellbeing. Something so simple, no cost involved just how loving we are with ourselves throughout the day can make monumental changes to both ourselves and others lives.
People often talk about focusing on reducing stress levels, but what if we actually made the focus on increasing self love, self care…would that not make it more practical to focus on what you can do to feel good? Sleeping and eating well, allowing a rhythm and routine that supports this, dressing warmly if we are cold, sitting in a comfortable chair that supports posture, ensuring hydration etc etc. Simple basics that are often neglected and yet when neglected contribute hugley to depleted energy levels and feelings of overwhelm which is the foundation of stress really…
This is something I feel we currently rarely hear ‘My doctor loves my visits as I am rarely ill. He has told me to keep doing whatever I’m doing, as he has never seen me looking so well and reckons I’m looking younger each time he sees me.’ And if I hear someone say something around the lines of this I would like to know just what is it they are doing, how they are living, to have such wellbeing.
Combining traditional medicine with esoteric healing is a great recipe for good health, well-being and generally feeling great.
Inspiring people to change the way they live their lives is actually quite a big thing. So many of us are content with the way our lives are, we b*tch about our work, our family, some of our friends and all else around us. We find faults in everything, yet we very rarely look at ourselves & change the way we behave. So for a person to be inspired by another person to change their life, that is worth looking at and talking about.
‘Yesterday, I visited my local GP. I visited, not because I was ill, but to have my annual check-up…He has told me to keep doing whatever I’m doing, as he has never seen me looking so well and reckons I’m looking younger each time he sees me.’ The evidence of living this way is so obvious to anyone who sees the changes in every aspect of improved quality of life.
For many years prior to encountering Universal Medicine I was heavily involved with complimentary medicine and had been a full-time practitioner for 15 years and was very ambivalent about Western Medicine. However, with Universal Medicine I was presented with a whole different paradigm of approach to and understanding of health which resulted in me renouncing my practice and having a complete life change that includes combining Western Medicine with Universal Medicine as my healthcare. Since then I can only say my health and wellbeing has radically improved and it continues to improve instead of deteriorating as is the general norm as one gets older.
Amazing to hear jstewart51 – and the beauty of this is that you have since then opened up to western medicine and hence have allowed more support into your life. This is testament of how we can support ourselves more.
What I Love about the Universal Medicine model is that it is so simple and there is never anyone who is telling you what to do! As our health, wellbeing and vitality are up to us all, as we can choice to make the most responsible self-loving approach to the way we live.
“My doctor loves my visits as I am rarely ill” – this is refreshing. I have often felt like I was only allowed to see a doctor when I was seriously ill otherwise I would be wasting their time.
It’s inspiring to read that so many people are bucking the trend when it comes to health care and taking responsibility for their own well-being.
Many years ago, I went through a stage where I rejected Western Medicine as I felt it had let me down when a family member was going through a long-term health struggle. But through that period, I can see now that by thinking I could do it on my own I was badly neglecting myself by avoiding the care that Western Medicine was able to offer me. These days, I am the biggest supporter of using a combination of Western Medicine and Universal Medicine and as a result the whole of me, my health and my well-being is being cared for in many wonderful ways.
I feel in the future we use Western Medicine alongside Esoteric Medicine as they complement each other so well. For example I have read several accounts of patients that were undergoing Chemotherapy and having Universal Medicine Chakra puncture sessions as support improved their overall wellbeing so that they felt more able to cope with the harsh but necessary treatment.
JJ you are bucking the trend, how many people visit their doctor for just a check up and to ask for tests at the preventative stage rather than because there is a problem. It is a shame that doctors are not picking up and wanting to know more about what we are doing to stay healthy and vital rather than saying ‘keep doing what you’re doing’. I feel one day it will happen, we have to keep showing the world that there is a way to live that supports our health and wellbeing.
We need to realise there’s a philosophy at play in everything we do – whether we choose to see it or not. So doesn’t it make sense to study and comprehend the options? Enter Universal Medicine and The Way of The Livingness.
Traditional Medicine advancements and the Universal Medicine Therapies are the ultimate combination.
Traditional medicine and Universal Medicine Therapies really do complement each other very well. I have felt the immeasurable support of both in a holistic approach to my health care. One does what the other cannot, but together they make the whole.
Combining Esoteric Medicine with Western Medicine has much to offer humanity.
If we smoke or drink heavily it’s accepted that this can seriously compromise our health. So doesn’t it make simple common sense that it’s also affected by the quality in which we live? And if this is so shouldn’t we stop and look at the way we move around everyday?
To me Serge Benhayon shows all of humanity the power of true reflection. He lives in such a way that it inspires others to feel the possibility of leading a simple loving life’s.
Serge Benhayon’s reflection to humanity is huge and for many very inspirational, but for others it is way too bright and they turn away. But that’s ok, as each one of us always has the choice to say yes to change or not; that is the beauty of free will.
Our health-care system would benefit greatly if people took responsibility for their own health and worked more with their medical and healing practitioners.
Absolutely, this is imperative, taking responsibility for how we live, our lifestyle, and choices.
The proof of what works and what doesn’t is not in the pudding but in the body; it is in the way we move, think, rest and relate and there for all to see. No double blind trials needed but taking off our blinkers definitely recommended.
Absolutely Gabriele, we can end up with tunnel vision as well as a cross-eyed way of perceiving life unless we take note of our bodies.
I cannot imagine a time when I do not actively engage with my health and wellbeing yet I know this was not always the case. I was quite happy to consider myself at the mercy of the world at bizarre coincidences till I took responsibility for my own choices and behaviour and found how life changed. The Universal Medicine Therapies support us to embrace responsibility in the body.
This is great what you have shared Lucy, and may I add that any embracing movement includes a dose of appreciation, which is part of the magic that takes us away from being at the “mercy” of life.
“I recognised on a very deep level there was more to life than the superficial way we humans go about things.” There is more to life indeed that the way we currently live and I find that Universal Medicine present this in a normal everyday practical way, and not in some hocus pocus way. We are multi-dimensional human beings that see and feel energy.
“It’s a hackneyed expression, but my life changed in that first meeting with Serge.” Yes mine also because i was re-introduced after so long, to true love. To feel a love that is true, is everything, life-changing.
One day, doctors will refer to that you are doing that keep you vital and well by its real name. Universal Medicine will be openly talked about and widely praised.
Which is why it has the name ‘universal name’ – one medicine for all, freely available and our right by birth.
At present and for a while now, there has been a counter movement in that some quarters have taken it upon themselves to try to patent their brand of medicine, trying to run it into the ground rather than being the humble service to all that it esoterically was destined to be. But – this too will pass.
It is a blessing for a medical practitioner to work with people who take responsibility for their own health and wellbeing.
Yes, it changes so much, and is such a blessing.
The more we work with our GPs and not simply go in wanting them to fix us the more we will bring out their skills and get the support we truly want and deserve. But it entails us 1st taking responsibility for our own health and wellbeing and not expecting another to deliver us a magic cure all pill.
The marriage of esoteric and western medicine is the best form of healing, dealing with the root cause together with the symptoms is the only way to truly heal from anything, not just on a physical level but on all levels – to truly let go of that which has a hold of us.
I decided to have a health full check up with a private health company and the results came back that although I am 62 years old my body is a healthy 54 years old! I know that this is due to the 11 years I have spent putting into practice living in a way that supports my body. This is all down to the esoteric healing modalities of Universal Medicine and the courses and events I have attend over this period of time.
I am in full agreement – taking a responsible and engaged body to the doctor benefits everyone. No wonder the doctor looks forward to seeing you as the pressure to fix would not be as present and there would be space to consider why the symptoms are presenting and not just what and how to get rid of them.
The depth of respect and gentleness I experienced in my own body after my first session with Curtis Benhayon was immediate and I marvelled at the way I chose to move in honour of my beingness.
It must be unique in the world for a complementary medicine business to promote Western Medicine and call themselves “complementary to medicine” as Universal Medicine does. They are truly an amazing organisation and I have also experienced many benefits to my health and wellbeing by combining Universal Medicine presentations and therapies and Western Medicine.
Being a nurse and a student of The Way of The Livingness, I can say that it is deeply supporting to have this insight and way of living complementing with the conventional medicine. It goes hand in hand and I hope and trust that there will come one day when we see that it is our only way forward to combine them.
A gorgeous reminder that we are love before any action. Meaning that simply we need to care for ourselves and our body in a loving supportive way to bring our action into service.
How beautiful it was to come across your comment Danna to the words we are love before any action it enabled me to sit and feel heaven all around me and to appreciate the depth of love that can be felt.
It would seem that until we can produce good research to show how amazing the esoteric modalities are, we won’t be accepted by the western medical model. Evidence based medicine being the acceptable face, even our amazing stories of return to health using both western and esoteric medicine aren’t sufficient. Yet I thought empirical observation was an accepted part of science. However one or two doctors in the UK are now promoting lifestyle Medicine, and even getting on TV.
Doctors have told me to ‘keep doing what you’re doing’ too, but not one has ever asked me what that may be. I know there are time limits to appointments and they are ingrained in the Western model of medicine, but even after surgery when I healed so quickly and well, I wasn’t questioned. I myself asked why for example a dairy and sugar free diet wasn’t recommended in cases of breast cancer, but was told ‘there’s no evidence’. The pharmaceutical industry has most doctors well within its grip. One day the benefits of diet, lifestyle medicine and these amazing esoteric modalities will be more widely prescribed.
One day, and until that day comes we don’t wait for another to confirm what we already know in the body. Research takes a while to catch up, but we need people to be consistent and committed in order to measure them!
It does not make sense to me why most of the world likes a very hard and painful treatment when we are already feeling pain. As if we want to punish ourselves even more when we are already feeling challenged. We want others to give us love when we are challenged but don’t want to give that to ourselves. So a treatment that is gentle and accepting of ourselves makes much more sense.
I reckon the suggestion to be on the front foot concerning our health fits here, why deal with the issues as they arise, but rather prepare our bodies to live well. We take our bodies for granted, rather than nurturing them to support us through life. Working with complementary and conventional medicine is very supportive.
How refreshing for a doctor to see a patient who is not sick, but is just asking for a routine check up so that they can stay in touch with their health rather than waiting for it to deteriorate before seeking treatment. This sounds like a marvellous combination of health care to me.
It must be a refreshing sight for a doctor to see someone well in their clinic than all the ill patients they usually see. In fact, it must be quite rare.
Taking responsibility for our health needs to become our new norm
The most super supportive combination for our being and our body – Universal Medicine and ‘Western Medicine’.
I like your comment JJ about looking younger as you get older. This is something that I have observed with students of Universal Medicine. But its more than that too. There are students with chronic conditions, but feel well, there are students who die, who die well. One day the research eye will be on what is presented by Serge Benhayon and lived by so many. Maybe because it works?
Visiting our GP is such a self caring thing to do, engaging with them and being actively involved with our health takes it to a whole other level.
It sure is Elizabeth, rather than staying away from at all costs like I used to do, it is important we empower ourselves and seek support when we need it.
“…there was more to life than the superficial way we humans go about things.” Yes, and deep down we know but we get so caught up in life as it is that we hardly ever bring it to the fore. Serge Benhayon lives this deeper knowing every day and that is what is so deeply inspiring as it gives us the reflection that it is possible to live by our deepest truth every day in every moment and that nothing else matters more than this truth that we feel and know.
Western and Esoteric medicine – an awesome combination JJ. And in my experience, the only way to go.
To visit the surgery when you are well, and for the doctor to say keep doing what you are doing is quite rare in conventional medicine. Magic really does happen when we start to take responsibility for the way we live and offers a great reflection for others to see that it is possible to really change our life, not to make it better but to make it vital and healthy
Magic sure does happen Alison when we start to look after ourselves. The question then becomes do we settle for the new found level of vitality or do we continue to deepen knowing that yes our lives and health have vastly improved, but there is far more to come?
Western medicine is great once we have a major problem but in my experience it is the inbetween bit where we are still ‘ok’ test wise where it cannot offer the support we truly need. Get too ill and yes it is there. And this is where Esoteric Medicine comes in. Also when we do go further astray Esoteric Medicine helps get underneath the issue at hand so rather than just returning to a state of function we return to a state of love and renounce the energy that led to the behaviours which created the ill in 1st place.
Yes it is a much deeper approach than simply healing the wound. This offers GPs and the health system a great reprieve because it works on personal responsibility and accountability.
It sure does and the more we do this the more we are working together and not giving our power away to something outside of ourselves or someone else to essentially fix us so we can then continue to live the same ill ways that led us to where we are.
I had my neck cracked once and it was such a jolt to the body I wasn’t sure how that was going to do any good.
It is quite significant to note that your life started to change after you met Serge Benhayon once. How many people see their chiropractor, masseuse, psychologist etc. for years without ever feeling any different apart from temporary relief? From my own experience I feel the ‘secret’ with Serge is that he reflects back to you who you really are, without any need or imposition, and gives you the permission to be yourself that society, work and even those close to us never have.
This is a great point Fiona and perhaps worth considering that this is our only job too – to reflect back, without need or imposition who someone is and the Love we all come from. Permission to live that Love in our day to day needs a consistent reflection to show it is safe to do so.
Trusting what our body is telling us is the truth is our best marker for whether a certain healing modality is right for us. When I was regularly going to a chiropractor and massage therapist while playing many different sports/endurance races, I can remember wondering why every time I went to them it was the same areas of my body that were out of whack and very sore/strained. They did a fantastic job helping with the pain and soreness, but it made me consider that it was the way I was moving my body and the choices I was making with the sports activities that were leading to the same health/body issues. Only by addressing these things in a different way did those conditions vanish with the help of Universal Medicine and all its amazing wisdom.
“This one meeting with Serge Benhayon inspired me to make many changes in the way I was living.” – This really highlights to me the power of the kind of reflection we offer each other – not through trying to put out a ‘good’ image or face but through the way that we live – an energetic communication that speaks volumes…
It sure does Fiona and goes to show how important each and every interaction we have is as you never know quite what is on offer and how much the way we are can literally change someones life.
I love reading people’s accounts of their experiences since they came across Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine also! It’s amazing to read about the transformations in health and well-being to extortionate levels!
I love it too and it really highlights the impact this man has had on humanity.
It sure is Rachel and reminds me quite how much there is to appreciate that Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine have offered us along with the many changes I too have made and where I would be without them!
I know for me that Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine are my new normal and with anything that becomes ‘normal’ we can take it for granted, at times. However, there are many moments in a day, week, or month that I count my blessings in every which way because I know I would not be the person I am today without Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.
The same goes for me, I dread to think where I would be without the love and support of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.
I love that moment in life where we come to the seeming ‘edge’ of it all and realise that there is no end to the depth we can go should we only take the leap.
Yes, beautifully said Liane, “there is no end to the depth we can go” if we do not limit ourselves to one way of living but feel and live the grandness we are part of – the universe, which is forever expanding.
Exactly, we all look younger and live more healthily after meeting Serge Benhayon – he is showing us the way of the future, how we could all be living and those of us who make similar choices can in turn inspire others to live more healthily – the hospitals and GP surgeries are already over stretched and us making a few better choices about what to eat and drink, how to exercise can considerably reduce the demands on their services.
The body recognizes instantly what offers true support and healing and what doesn’t. The combination of western medicine and Universal medicine is superb for you get help on all levels and when you do your ‘own’ part you get true healing.
Helping to restore order through healing is very different from creating an ex-novo order from an external source. In the first case, it is our order what is back, In the second, it is not. The body recognizes the first in full, but the second is alien to it.
It might be a “hackneyed expression”, but when applied to Serge Benhayon it is simply the truth. And like you and hundreds, if not thousands of others “my life changed in that first meeting with Serge”. And 13 years later it is still continuing to change and as a result my life today is totally unrecognisable from the life I struggled to live for the first 55 years
In the combination of Western Medicine and Universal Medicine I have found no greater support. I genuinely appreciate the advice and medication provided by GPs and consultants, whilst being supported by Universal Medicine practitioners to the root energetic cause of my illnesses. In this understanding I can change behaviours, patterns and momentums that lead to the illness in the first place.
Conventional medicine is super supportive to our physical bodies and by complementing it with the principles of Esoteric Medicine you consider not only the physical human part of our body but also the being part of us as human beings.
Being truly respected and deeply valued, more than you value yourself, is truly inspiring and this is something I also have experienced very much so with Serge Benhayon.
It would be a welcome relief to the National Health Service and to our many overstressed doctors if one day we were all able to go to the doctors for health check ups rather than the many long term illnesses and complicated diseases we go with at present.
Wouldn’t it! We can take responsibility for our own health and not dump that responsibility in the hands of another who can’t actually take responsibility for it. The health system is there to support us but if we don’t play our part there will only ever be a band aid on offer.
Truth unfortunately is rare in our world today. We often live by images, ideals and beliefs – but no truth to how it is that we actually are living truly and or the drive that is driving us.. No honest view is sought by us to what is reality, what is raw and what is truly actualy right and what it is asking of us to change. To be real and honest is our very first step #1.
Of course — and we know that there is more that meets the eye when it comes down to medicine. We have a health care system that might take away a problem or disease in the body, but what are we bringing to our health care system? How do we care for our body instead? This is the responsibility of all of us that eventually makes the whole system in the end, so we better truly have a look at what we are choosing and living a like because that might serve our whole of humanity in truth.
I love how the Universal Medicine Therapies are not invasive in any way, my experience with other modalities is that they often did more harm then good.
‘I recognised on a very deep level there was more to life than the superficial way we humans go about things.’
Taking our health care to a deeper level of understanding – beautiful JJ.
Of course , I would say with Universal Medicine my life would have been very unhealthy and that it is through Universal Medicine that I have started to make daily chocies that are in true benefit of my body and being.. Every day I deepen the care for myself and also the care I give to others in my every day living.
Yep what if we all have check ups not because we are ill but because we are loving ourselves so much to do this. It is taking responsibility for our well-being.
JJ a great reflection of all that Universal Medicine offers, and how through changing our choices we are able to support our body in a way that it supports us back.
Listening to your body is the best thing I can do. It helps and supports me in all ways.
Me too Danna, our bodies are such great reminders of the love that we are, the question is how much do we choose or want to listen to it!
What an awesome testimony, the type of responsibility you now show with your heath is a model that we should all aspire to. Why wait until something is wrong? Why not confirm that something is in fact right? Inspiration plus, thank you!
Great point Sarah, indeed ‘Why wait until something is wrong’ it makes no sense yet so often we carry on with the way we are living until we are almost forced to change even though we are not really happy or content with life and how things are. How long is it before we grab the truth with both hands and say yes in full with every cell of our body and make it our only foundation then anything which does not fit no longer is a part of our lives.
JJ what a gorgeous testimony of the (visibly physical) effects in introducing true self-love into one’s everyday life.
Awesome blog promoting self responsibility – we all need to get checked by the doctor when there is something we need more understanding of. Its amazing how many of us in society shy away from dealing with an issue.
I used to avoid going to the doctor thinking that I should be able to stay well on my own and I did lots of study and research around this. I still feel that my health is my responsibility but I do not put such a focus on seeking the answers from outside myself. I listen to to my own body much more and consciously connect with it, allowing the quality that I bring to it to be in my movements, appreciating the inner wisdom that is there and observing what plays out. I go to the doctors twice a year whether I feel well or not and have a blood test and regular check up and a chat. I get sessions with practitioners of Universal Medicine, both counselling and bodywork and feel supported all round. I feel that this preventative form of medicine, as it is most often termed, is the most sensible as it can nip things in the bud, so to speak, as well as dig up well rooted ill behaviours. In the long term this saves the health service a lot of time and money and keeps me on track with an increasingly clear body and mind.
I remember the first time I met Serge Benhayon, it was at a workshop he was giving in London the room was small but the people in the room felt very at ease, very open and very welcoming. I remember one young women sitting leaning on a wall in the sun doing her knitting. It was a very unimposing space.
Combining both Western Medicine and Universal Medicine is the whole package and there are hundreds of people who are living proof that their health and wellbeing has changed dramatically because of choosing it.
“As I became aware and felt the true reflection of love Serge presents, I recognised on a very deep level there was more to life than the superficial way we humans go about things.” A beautiful medicine and healing.
When we take our health and well-being into our own hands by taking responsibility for our choices we can then make decisions that will best support from there, honestly.
I get a similar response from my doctor when I have a check up . I am one of the few healthy patients he has.
Western and Esoteric medicine is a powerful combination. Before I met Serge Benhayon and Esoteric medicine I arrogantly had put the western medicine to aside and would not take the medicine they prescribed. Now I don’t hand over my power to them but feel it is my responsibility to work with both, western and esoteric medicine and to see how they compliment each other.
The responsibility you share here is the combination of support that Western Medicine provides and the offering of Esoteric Medicine to heal great depths of dis-ease we often ignore that over time surfaces.
These are a match made in Heaven as we are so often quick to study the aliments and rush to look for the right pill or procedure to “fix the problem” yet how often are we willing to look deeper on the cause that are a direct reflection of how we are living and the choices we have been making. Esoteric Medicine support this innate knowing that we know from within.
It is inspiring beyond measure when we feel the qualities of love and truth lived in absoluteness by another, as does Serge Benhayon, as it represents the exact same qualities that reside with us all. For me this highlights the responsibility we all hold as to what qualities we are reflecting in the world and the inspiration that can be offered just by living in connection to who we are in essence.
What Serge has inspired in me is the realisation that love is our natural way of being, so much so that we are ill if we live without it. As I return to living from the essence of love within me my body feels healthier, and I can feel and see how lovelessness impacts my body in every part of my day if I choose it.
The support that Universal Medicine has brought many has stood the test of time with many visits to the doctor that has shown transformations. The choice to make self-care the key ingredient has brought vitality to many and the way of living has not gone unnoticed by many.
True – a well and beautiful combination of both serves body, mind and Soul. Thank you for sharing and making us aware.
Beautiful JJ, a true testimony to the power of the Universal Medicine therapies and to the reflection of true Love as you felt with Serge Benhayon.
JJ I have noticed that I stand out to doctors because overall I am much healthier than their regular patients. The health conditions I have had for years are now healing in remarkable ways thanks to the support of Universal Medicine and their therapies, and by working more closely with western medicine. Seeing my doctor more regularly was actually inspired by Universal Medicine!
I second all that Melinda. My visits to the doctors are always very confirming of the way I am living – a testament to The Way of The Livingness. My old chronic and niggling ailments are actually long gone and healed with the support of Universal Medicine in conjunction with medical practitioners. And now my regular visits to the doctors are part of my self-honoring health care routine also inspired by Universal Medicine.
It truly is incredible to read of how so many people are changing the way they are living and bringing a powerful refection of vitality and harmony in their lifestyles. A wonderful confirmation for patients and a breath of fresh air for the GP.
Like many people who have chosen to be supported by the Universal Medicine Therapies I have had a complete transformation in my body shape and size. This continues to change to this day as I make living with self- care and a deep commitment to well being a priority.
Like you Melinda, I too was inspired by Universal Medicine to visit my doctor regularly and like so many other testimonials of those who have combined the two approaches to their healthcare my doctor is also impressed by my state of health, as I am.
Bringing these two forms of medicine together has supported me with many things. It’s great to have a check up at the doctor or go to the dentist for the same for support to see what is going on with my body at different points, coupled this with regular sessions with Universal Medicine I feel I consistently have a greater and greater understanding of the world and a greater understanding of myself.
This is how it ought to be – the love of the doctor’s visits, the doctor loving our visits, because it’s made to be all about people and about the illness. This is where esoteric medicine adds the all important missing link – that it is all about caring deeply for the person, in the reverence and knowing that this person is precious simply by being who they are.
The pathway to greater health that will take us out of our dire plummet into such chronic and multi-symptomatic illness and disease, is to learn to take responsibility for our health long before the onset of dis-ease takes root. In this way there is truth to the old adage ‘prevention is better than a cure’, as it is a path of utmost integrity and responsibility that ensures there is much less work for all involved which means not only a healthier global population but also a less burdened medical system that can tend in a far greater capacity to help those still in need of this support.
Our whole life can change in an instance and we really ought to embrace that fact. Today for example someone told me that what I had just told them about themselves changed their life forever. It is as simple as having a conversation with someone and just being true to ourselves.
Remarkable yet not uncommon. We are walking encyclopaedias of Universal Wisdom when we share the love within our hearts.
Visiting a GP when you are well! I love this and it must be wonderful for GP’s to be with people who want to take responsibility for their own health and wellbeing.
What a different reflection you presented to the doctor on those visits – it is people that are well that should be studied, to find out how they live and what they are doing differently than those who are poorly.
An awesome confirmation from your doctor and I would highly recommend all the Esoteric Healing modalities brought through and held by Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine they are the absolute real deal in supporting the body to truly heal.
Yes, that’s a great confirmation to keeping trusting in what works for you. It’s so powerful when we listen to our bodies and don’t just give our power away to anyone who appears to have some authority. We are our own bosses, and what works best, is when we ask for support to work with us, not for us.
‘Keep doing whatever you’re doing.’ I too have been told this by medics. What I find curious is that they don’t ask what it is that I’m doing ……. ‘Prevention is better than cure’ is an old saying, but is also true. Lifestyle medicine is slowly creeping its way into some areas of conventional medicine. Universal Medicine therapies have so much to offer in this regard. And UM students are living proof of this.
Great confirmation from your doctor. I as I am sure many others have also felt this with regards to Serge Benhayon ‘my life changed in that first meeting with Serge. There was a true respecting and valuing of me as I felt truly met.’
‘ As I became aware and felt the true reflection of love Serge presents, I recognised on a very deep level there was more to life than the superficial way we humans go about things.’ So true JJ. To understand our body, life and the quality of way we live on a deeper level, an energetic level, has been revelatory and super self-empowering.
What a wonderful gift you bring your GP who must see so many sick people each day, many of whom, are asking the doctor to take away their ills without wanting to look at what got them to be sick in the first place. Your taking responsibility for your well being must be like a breath of fresh air!
The combination of Western Medicine and Universal Medicine therapies is an incredible support for anything the body is going through. You cannot truly heal the body or part of the body alone, without looking at the whole person.
I agree Jenny they go hand in hand, with out the other the healing is not complete. We have to work with both for true healing to take place in the body.
The urge to keep seeking we justify by not having found the true answer but finding the true answer has also to do with responsibility. So if we dedicated ourselves to what we know is true, from our deep inner knowing where we know something feels right for us or not, in every aspect of our life and consistently so, we would step by step get a clearer understanding of what is true for us and what is not and the true aspects in life that are there and can keep building on them.
It’s great to see doctors appreciating our looking after ourselves and practising Universal Medicine. There is no doubt that the Way of The Livingness brings a quality into life and a deeper understanding of how our physical bodies relate and connect with our other bodies such as the emotional, mental and causal and how the relationship between our spirit and soul works. As our awareness grows we grow and are in a greater place to truly look after ourselves and each other.
The one can not work without the other, hence we need all the true medicine we got. That is our medical therapies equally as the energetic approach that is brought by the Esoteric Therapies given and produced by Universal Medicine. We need a whole body intelligence as approach not just a cure. Our true health can only be achieved by a whole body intelligence: one that serves the whole of our body and not just a part.
It is arrogant to assume that any form of medicine has all the answers.
With so many people not only healing conditions but living with far greater vitality and commitment to live through connecting western medicine with the teachings of Universal Medicine it’s only a matter of time and the honesty that will come when on mass we admit that conventional medicine doesn’t have it all and that we are more than our bodies. Each aspect needs its own medicine and can support the human part of us.
This is how medicine and healing should be approached. The individual takes responsibility for making changes in their life, whilst complementary and conventional medicine are consulted to support as needed. I can see why your doctor would love to see you, since this is the approach you are taking. Most of us place a huge burden on doctors to fix us, whilst continuing to do the very things that cause the problem. For people like doctors, who are dedicated to serving peoples health, this could be quite draining and demoralising if they take this responsibility on.
‘That’s pretty good confirmation for combining both Western Medicine and what Universal Medicine offers as far as I’m concerned.’ Absolutely. It doesn’t make sense for one type of ‘medicine’ to fight another. Medicine will work together in supporting the body and being on all levels if it is of truth – and the body clearly reveals this.
It is great how Serge helped you become aware of this fact, ‘As I became aware and felt the true reflection of love Serge presents, I recognised on a very deep level there was more to life than the superficial way we humans go about things.’
How wonderful that you had this opportunity, many people search and crave this yet rarely get to experience it, ‘my life changed in that first meeting with Serge. There was a true respecting and valuing of me as I felt truly met’.
I’m in the same boat JJ, I have never been so well since attending Universal Medicine workshops and their clinic for sessions since 2012. It’s really extraordinary to look at how much they have supported me and how much my life has changed. I could otherwise now be a massive burden on the healthcare system based on where I was headed due to emotional stress and existing health conditions I had. What Universal Medicine is offering is truly supportive, I’m surprised the governments of the world are not yet knocking on their door to find out how they get the results they do.
No wonder your doctor is happy to see you because you are taking responsibility for your health and not looking to him to fix you. On my last visit to my GP she made a comment that i was very body aware.
I feel that the combination of the two, Western Medicine and Universal Medicine go together very well. How fortunate are we to have access to both!.
JJ, these days it would be a rarity for a GP to have someone visit their clinic who is actually well in themselves so it is no wonder that you stand out. I too find that combining Western Medicine and Universal Medicine therapies to be super supportive and in fact I would say they are a marriage made in heaven.
The respect at the hands of a Universal Medicine practitioner is something we all deserve, and thanks to the many practitioners globally many more people now have access to these modalities.
We humans are multi-faceted, we are not just physical, there is a place for complementary medicine of a true quality, if we deepen our relationship for what is not seen, what we feel, we enable ourselves to shift the habits, emotions and ideas we have that do not serve us. It is possible for this way of working to really compliment and support any conventional medicine that is required.
That’s pretty good confirmation for me too JJ and my experience is the same. Western medicine is wonderful, but for too long it has closed the door on the fact that everything is energy first – that there’s an energetic root cause before a physical manifestation i.e. the actual illness or condition. The combination of esoteric and western medicine is a fabulous thing and I’m looking forward to the day when it’s the norm.
I see no need for separation with complementary health and conventional medicine they work hand in hand when they are practiced with true care, integrity and wisdom. It is the quality that defines an activity in any area life, and when it comes to health it is crucial that we utilise the resources that best suit what is being presented in the body.
Esoteric Medicine supports us to return to deeper more loving relationship with our body, how can it not compliment conventional medicine and how it serves us.
Whether it is conventional or not, it is the way we use that defines whether it would be empowering or disempowering. Many people feel put off by the conventional medicine, and become the advocates of alternative medicine, but we could still be approaching by looking for a fix but feel somewhat ‘better’ because their choices are more ‘natural’. I certainly was like that too, thinking somewhat I had more awareness. It is only when we can start taking responsibility for our choices that medicine can work in harmony with us – to complement our choices.
I just completed a healing modality course on Charkra Puncture. This modality and all 9 Modalities pioneered by Universal Medicine is and will change medicine the way we know it today. It is needed now because western medicine cannot keep up..
It’s obvious you have a very responsible approach to your supporting your own health JJ. You remind me that looking after all aspects of our health is a personal responsibility that cannot be outsourced. Medical professionals both complementary and mainstream can offer a huge amount of support when we approach healing discerningly.
Universal Medicine was the missing link for me in being able to accept the support from Western Medicine. I always new there was more to health than going to the doctor or the surgeon to getting something fixed. I knew we are meant to be taking more responsibility with how we are living on a daily basis. Universal Medicine helped me to see the whole package how to put this together, and how this integrates with the marvels of western medicine.
I love reading people’s accounts of their experiences since they came across Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine too! The transformation in people’s lives is quite extraordinary. A beautiful confirmation from the medical profession JJ, when your doctor says you look younger with each visit…!
Thank you Joel for sharing your experiences with your doctor. I have had the same comments from mine each time I have my annual checks. To add my GP shared it was so great to see a person your age with no major aliments and looking younger and more vibrant than ever. This is the work of the teachings of Serge Benhayon that changed my life and continues to each day. A true livingness that I never felt before.
I loved reading about your Doctor’s appreciation and confirmation of you taking responsibility for your health and the resulting benefits.
That is good! I love that the doctor appreciated you going when you were not sick, that you were actively engaged with your health and looking at prevention. It is something doctors rarely have time to consider. So in fact, by looking after your health, you are also looking after the doctors’ health!
I have seen many amazing miracles within the student body with the support of both Western Medicine and Universal Medicine – a powerful combination that allows for the body to truly heal.
Integrated heath, where conventional and complementary health marry is the future…too long has it been about fire fighting and dealing with the symptoms that show themselves, instead lets start looking at our foundational health and its quality and build this to support us and then if required we use well established and supportive methods offered by conventional medicine.
A healing practitioner that is and works with the Esoteric, offers a beautiful package to anyone willing to submit its body to healing. It is the dialogues between qualities and the open invitation from the highest one to the lower one to raise to where naturally belongs that makes an enormous difference.
“There was a true respecting and valuing of me as I felt truly met.” Thank you JJ, this sentence sums up every encounter with Serge Benhayon and the consequences of being met with such immense love instigates a very natural inspiration for us to begin to take deep care of our selves. What is so awesome is the support you are giving your doctor in the fact that you turn up looking well and getting positive test results – how often do they get to see a real picture of health these days. Truly awesome!
Nothing ‘hackneyed’ at all about sharing what you have about your initial meeting with Serge Benhayon, JJ. Rather, this is something to celebrate and cherish deeply – that there are those in this world who can inspire us so very deeply, to be ourselves, confirming all that we are in the true core of our very being.
‘I recognised on a very deep level there was more to life than the superficial way we humans go about things’ – To me this is what religion is all about; seeing and feeling that there’s something ‘more’ than surface level living, and I love attending the Universal Medicine workshops as they’re an open environment to talk about the ‘more’ that society is currently way overlooking.
Living in the bush we had our ‘bush’ chiropractors that kept everyone going on their tractors and doing hard manual labour… then moving to the city to the plethora of alternative practitioners, and then , finally, realizing that there was actually an essence of self-responsibility , as presented by Universal medicine, that I had always missed.
Being open to both Western and Universal Medicine gives you the choices to look at your life as a whole, where Western Medicine has not been able to answers some questions you will find Universal Medicine has. Universal Medicine comes form ageless wisdom which is so powerful in its essence.
Why wait until something goes wrong to make change in your life, and yet that is what so many of us invariably do.
It is really interesting how we often only go to the Western Medicine and champion that but just looking around does show how it is not really working. It needs us to do our part and that is deeply caring for, loving and cherishing ourselves – something Universal Medicine supports and inspires people to do.
Now I would never have another complimentary therapy, alongside conventional medicine, other than the Universal Medicine Esoteric modalities because I know the practitioner’s know the truth with regards to energy and live in a way that has energetic integrity and responsbility across the board with everything they do not just when they are in a treatment room. You only have to read the Esoteric Practitioners Association’s Code of Ethics to see just how important this is … it is a pretty outstanding Code of Ethics to have that raises the bar for all other therapies and therapists http://esoteric-healing.com/system/files/EPA-information-pack/PDFs/EPA-Code-of-Ethics.pdf
That is so true! It is an incredible code of ethics. What I found interesting and initially challenging is how it asked us to consider the integrity of the way we lived 24 hours a day – not just when we were in the treatment room or at ‘work’. That level of engagement with our health and service is to be appreciated and valued as it addresses the compartmentalised way we approach our lives which I now see causes so much harm to the mind and the body.
I loved what you shared about how that one meeting with Serge Benhayon inspired so much change in your own habits and choices. Esoteric Medicine / Universal Medicine is deeply healing physically and it does also inspire a deeper knowing and appreciation of ourselves, in so doing it becomes simple to make more loving choices.
I love that your doctor loves your visits JJ. Doctors must struggle under the enormous pressure of having to ‘fix’ most of their patients. That you clearly take responsibility for your own health eases that pressure and allows for a mutually supportive and respectful relationship.
It might be hackneyed as you say JJ but there can be no doubt that a single meeting with Serge Benhayon can change everything. As there can be no doubt that a single meeting with anyone living The Way of the Livingness can change everything. When we’re connected, we bring so much more than we know.
Over 25 years or so I tried a number of different approaches to improve my wellbeing. Most of them did have some benefits and my life did improve. However, it was when I met Chris James and then Serge Benhayon that there was a true shift in my wellbeing. I was unaware at the time but now see that Serge reflected back to me the fullness of who I am. He did not and does not ‘deal in parts’ but the all of a person, the all of humanity and the all of the universe. It was this reflection that has ended my search for alternative or complementary pathways through life. Through the wisdom he shares I have found what I was searching for and know it was within me all the time.
I love combining conventional and Esoteric Medicine. I feel like it supports the body physically and energetically, a whole approach.
Western medicine is very supportive as long as we don’t expect it to fix us, like anything in life.
Beautiful for the doctor and yourself! It is certainly a beautiful support for our health care professionals to have someone come in for a check up who is living with such love and care for themselves and those around.
Gosh yes! I’ve heard many many stories of doctors being quite surprised at the results of those that have chosen to combine western medicine with esoteric medicine. It certainly is a match made in heaven.
“As I became aware and felt the true reflection of love Serge presents, I recognised on a very deep level there was more to life than the superficial way we humans go about things.” For me I had felt this before meeting Serge but his reflection confirmed this to me and that it is possible to live with this awareness and expansiveness – universally in brotherhood and oneness, whilst being fully part of life. Before this I had been uncommitted to life – preferring to live in my dreams and ideals, metaphorically up in the clouds. Now I have my feet firmly on the ground and with each passing day feel more of the universality that is our natural way of being.
We all have the ability to meet and hold another like this and the many that know and have met Serge Benhayon know how deeply wonderfull and confirming it feels when we are truly met and held in love. This is a great reminder of how we can be with others ‘It’s a hackneyed expression, but my life changed in that first meeting with Serge. There was a true respecting and valuing of me as I felt truly met. As I became aware and felt the true reflection of love Serge presents, I recognised on a very deep level there was more to life than the superficial way we humans go about things.’
There is much that can be gained from looking after our health and being responsible for how we live, not just for us personally but also like your example, the less pressure it puts on the health care system.
It is healthy to see our GP for routine check-ups and maintenance that is focused on prevention and not just when we are sick – just like we do with our car.
‘As I became aware and felt the true reflection of love Serge presents, I recognised on a very deep level there was more to life than the superficial way we humans go about things.’ Serge Benhayon shows us the multidimensionality of us.
We can never underestimate the value of developing a relationship with our GP and how supportive it can be.
This is a great account of how freeing it is when we find back to the simplicity of our natural way of being. Life is presented to us, and we have made it, as very complicated and complex, but when we allow ourselves to connect back to our inner truth and live that more and more every day the chaos lifts and we can see right through where the simplicity lies.
Meeting Serge Benhayon for the first time and having a healing with him was to experience my body in a way I had not done so in my memory. I felt literally 9ft tall walking down the busy London street, I essentially was feeling my energetic body not just my physical body and I felt amazing. I just knew that the man spoke truth and that he was like no-one I had ever met before and I didn’t want to miss a word he shared.
I love that JJ that your GP has noticed how well your are looking and the fact you are rarely ill, not to make illness some how wrong because that would be missing the healing being offered when we are ill. But it is great confirmation that lifestyle changes coming from a loving choice are very powerful and very obvious to anyone willing to look.
I too love hearing of everyone’s first sessions with Serge, it is truly remarkable the profound affect that such a short time can have had on peoples lives through the healing and inspiration they are offered….. It is amazing how empowered people are, once they experience the connection and the love that they do, to then make choices that result in them living the life they always wanted and in some cases never knew was possible.
This really also describes my opening to knowing there was more to life, its purpose, direction and enjoyment – as reflected by Serge Benhayon, who serves to remind us of the truth we know but have been otherwise taught… “As I became aware and felt the true reflection of love Serge presents, I recognised on a very deep level there was more to life than the superficial way we humans go about things.”
My life changed when I meet Serge Benhayon. Why? Because I was truly inspired. How? He walks his talk. That really inspires me. Truth, Love and developing self awareness have been important to me and so what I see that Serge Benhayon has developed, learnt, committed to in his life concerning Responsibility, Love andTruth is without doubt awesome.
Yup, yup, yup! He is a walking, talking, living, loving, responsibility reflecting inspiration 🙂
Thank you JJ, we should never give our power away to any one and so only receive the support in our life. And take responsibility for ourselves first. This is so important as without there is no evolution.
I go to the GP more now than I ever have and not because I am sick, but because I am more responsible. I go for check ups, I am more aware of my body and I practice a commitment to care for it. I love that conventional medicine and Esoteric Medicine complement each other so fully.
To be truly met and in that meet oneself is the greatest healing we can offer and from there all else stems.
Combining both Western Medicine and what Universal Medicine offers is an amazing way to look after our health and wellbeing. Universal Medicine inspires us to look within and from here, and once connected we are given all the tools we need.
“…I recognised on a very deep level there was more to life than the superficial way we humans go about things.” I agree JJ, there is much going on beneath or behind the surface part of life that we see and Serge Benhayon has helped me to understand so much more about human behaviour.
How great and what a confirmation to keep doing what you are doing, as your health as remained great. Just goes to show if we are open to both forms of medicine we can continue to live a healthy life we less or no visits to the doctors.
There is much to learn for both sides to acknowledge the qualities of each way of medicine, how they complement each other. And there will be the ultimate step, to understand the bigger picture, the all-encompassing way of medicine that is universal medicine and that life itself is medicine; that is a step not just practitioners but everyone needs to take at some inevitable point.
Indeed Alex, there is much to learn through applying both the energetic and biological aspects of healing
It must feel lovely to a doctor when someone makes an appointment to see them simply to maintain and honour their wellness. Being proactive and self responsible like this takes a huge pressure off the health system. Prevention is better (and cheaper) than cure as the saying goes.
As someone who has ignored and or judged western medicine for its shortcomings and out of sheer arrogance for quite a while, through the teachings of Serge Behayon and his complementary approach towards healing and medicine today can very much appreciate what doctors and medicine are capable of and contributing to all our health and well-being. At the same time I am in deep awe and wonder of the ‘more to life’, the other dimensions that make who we are a whole and how all dimensions of life are intimately related and never can be seen separately – true holistic medicine.
It is interesting that you say that you recognised that there is more the life than superficially meets the eye. I think many of us know that there is but there is so much hoopla out there about what that could be and how you can access it, that we can end up being quite confused about what is there.
I also knew there was more to life than what meets the eye, and dabbled in quite a few things to work it out but nothing lasted and really truly gave any answers. Some things made sense but many did not.
Until I met Serge Benhayon and to also quote the hackneyed expression, my life too changed forever. He just made so much sense and offered us much information to digest and ponder on and in a way that did not impose upon the audience – we were completely free to take up (or not) what was on offer. He was not attached nor invested in us ‘getting it’ at all. I remember my whole body nodding at some of the things he was presenting and he makes a lot of sense. He is a game-changer for sure, if you so choose. He brings in a level of self-responsibility that is well needed in the world today
We put soo much pressure on doctors to come up with a quick fix in the brief 15-30min appointments – it is like somehow they should magically take away our ills irrespective of how we have been living. I know doctors are great but they are also limited with what they know and with the time they have. The key is to play our part and work with the doctors and not demand things of them.
The key isn’t finding a new cue but looking to the roots to how we live our everyday.
Love this Luke!
When we marry the two we are then offering the already overloaded, overwhelmed and pushed to the brink health care system, a body that has taken responsibility for its own healing.
Supporting my body with the esoteric modalities has been incredible. I have had GPs query and comment on my healthy state of being, particularly my pulse and vitality. At the age of 56 have never felt better.
With illness rates continuing to rise, it is clear that as valuable as Western Medicine is, there is something more needed. Universal Medicine therapies are complementary to medicine, they work alongside it, and for me like you JJ, they are very valuable.
“keep doing whatever I’m doing”, what more could you ask for in a recommendation.
Its great to read other peoples writing … always a reminder of our great diversity…, for example western medicine was the LAST port of call for me… even if I split discs in my back and wasn’t able to walk… no way would I go and see a GP… now thank goodness I take the best of both worlds and am so much healthier as a result… thanks again to Universal Medicine for presenting susch a balanced on going presentation of well being.
I used many many different alternative therapies as well as training as a practitioner myself before meeting Serge Benhayon. It used a lot of time, brought me a relief for a short time but I was getting sicker! So life definitely changed after my first meeting as I stopped all these modalities, embraced conventional medicine having been very anti it and combined with Esoteric medicine my life and health at last made sense. Now life is much more simple health wise with no more managing and trying to ‘fix’ me.
Great to read your experiences JJ, sometimes less is more in treatments, I have found that less pressure applied to the body can actually allow the body to intelligently heal itself, and that too much actually has the opposite effect. It is interesting that there is so much to explore and learn in the way we treat the body and that there are techniques and modalities like Esoteric Healing that can support out current ways.
Thank you JJ for sharing, my life changed also upon meeting Serge, what he presents just made common sense and so practical in choosing a life style that is loving and responsible to ones own body, brings with it health and healing.
I love reading these stories too, its wonderful to feel how so many have been inspired to come back to living a life of truth.
That’s the thing we all at some level or another know there is more to life than the very superficial stuff and that we are not only here to be born, eat, pay taxes and die. Meeting Serge Benhayon, confirmed to me not only what the more is, but also why I am here and what my purpose is – a huge healing in itself. I too embrace both Esoteric Medicine and Conventional Medicine as they are truly complementary and in recognition of how important taking care of my body.
I used avoid the medical system at all costs and only going to a doctor when there was something that really needed attention. Now when I go to the doctor I can feel the surprise from them, as I now go with the intent of supporting and keeping my body in harmony. By taking my body to a doctor and not asking them to fix anything but knowing that the responsibility for my body is mine, it frees them up to do what they do best, to be a facilitator in the healing process.
JJ I also combine Western Medicine and complementary medicine like Universal Medicine. My experience is that It is always good to be flexible and to follow what your body needs instead of being rigid and e.g. only follow the mainstream. Our health and body are very precious and need our special attention and care.
I fully accept Western Medicine and Universal Medicine are complementary. I also find Universal Medicine more of a traditional therapy.
exceptional beautiful Joel – what a power of magnitude these support has been having on you at the same time with the inner choice to look after yourself and so your environment too. How amazing that you can shine and reflect vitality to your own GP and ask him for support and check up , also when not ill. That to me is truly taking care. I love it!
Actually taking the time to stop and say ok lets really check up on how I am doing and how my body is without waiting until you get a major illness or disease is great. It is also unusual for a man! I heard that cancer survival rates were higher in women because they were diagnosed earlier than men which says it all!
My life also changed the first time I met Serge Benhayon as I started to see what life was about and feel a purpose in life. It is enormous what we can inspire in people when we live and walk and talk the wisdom that we know to be our truth.
Yes feeling the purpose to life is a real game changer and one I often still will dismiss and want to just keep things at the surface level.
Purpose really is a game changer. For me without it life seems dull, and really pretty pointless as the focus is on trying to get through the day. Whereas with purpose suddenly everything makes sense amd I have a role to play.
As you say JJ, the healthy way of living that Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine offers is all about lifestyle choices that empower us. My doctor asked me how I keep myself so healthy… its simple really, healthy choices and listen to my body.
So simple but true Jenny, and to me it is also about the self-loving choices in every moment.
I find listening to my body to be one of the biggest life changing choices I have made.
” I feel that the lifestyle changes we continue to make plus the support of Universal Medicine and Western Medicine brings a new vitality and sense of well-being.” I absolutely agree.
Western medicine is a gift to mankind – granting us the ability to rectify what is often done by our own hand. However, this in its own way has made us arrogant, and created a level of apathy whereby we have become unwilling to look at our own part in healing, and as such we have the crazy situation today where the majority of pressure on our hospital system is as a result of our own complacency with regards to our own health.
“I recognised on a very deep level there was more to life than the superficial way we humans go about things.” I have known this for sometime and I think all of humanity do as well but we do not live like this. And for many, myself included, are either lost, or got lost, or are very disillusioned by the way we are living that is not in connection to the fact we belong to something much grander than how we live.
In writing this, I realised that is why we do a lot of seeking – consciously or sub-consciously. We are looking for something to fill this gap between when we are living and what we feel deep down, we could be living.
I love that Universal Medicine has presented how deeply connected we are to the divine universality that exists within and all around us and how we can live this with our feet firmly on the ground and be very much a part of life.
It’s refreshing when a visit to the GP is not because we are unwell, but because we are being responsible and proactive in our health. My entire relationship with my healthcare has certainly changed since Universal Medicine.
Thank God (and yourself) that you did not have so much experience with Alternative Medicine. I have had a lot and would be glad without – it did take a lot of money and caused confusion. Universal Medicine combined with Western Medicine is the first true healing for me as a being of body, soul & personality.
There is no doubt that the students of Universal Medicine look younger and younger as they make loving choices. So many times people think I am 10 to 15 yrs younger than my true age. When I share my age they are in shock. Living a life full of constantly making loving choices takes years off the age.
Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon have brought back the love factor to healing which is missing in nearly every aspect of society. It is this lack that is deeply failing us and hence the power of the Esoteric Healing Modalities coupled with convention medicine.
I can confirm the same for me also JJ, through the combination of both Western Medicine and the support offered by Universal Medicine I have developed a level of wellbeing and vitality that I have never before experienced – they go very well together.
I used to feel a failure every time I had to go see a doctor, it really was a last resort after trying everything else. I would go so far as to say I did not trust doctors or the medical system. This has completely changed and I know the more I love and respect myself the more I am able to know what is needed and if this is to go see a doctor then there is now no hesitation on my part.
It is so important to listen to our bodies and not have treatments that do not feel right for our body. The problem for most of us is that we over-ride what we feel at our own expense.
Illness and disease are out of control and it is only when we as a society stop and take responsibility of the way we are living and choices that we are making as presented by Universal Medicine that Conventional Medicine will truly support us in a way back to harmony and healing.
It was only after being introduced to Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon did I begin to embrace Western Medicine again after many years of avoiding anything to do with it. I now have regular blood tests, paps smears etc. as I have found the most loving and caring female doctor. I also have regular sessions with Universal Medicine practitioners and find that my health and vitality has improved with age rather than the other way around.
I agree JJ, I love reading stories and experiences of how peoples lives have completely turned around since knowing Serge Benhayon or doing the work of Universal Medicine. These are not supernatural miracles or anything far out, although some radical changes have occurred in peoples’ health and lifestyle choices due to being presented a way of loving ourselves, honouring who we are and learning to renounce the ill ways that do not honour the Love each and everyone of us are from. SO, putting this all into practice and living a full life with responsibility and Love for all really shows on the superficial level of looks, body awareness and feel. Being in a room with all these people is incredible as everywhere you look there is inspiration ready to ignite.
Age is no longer a concern for me since being part of Universal Medicine. So many of the older students look so healthy, vital and part of life that I’m actually quite shocked that they are the ages they are. Even the 40 year olds shock me as they look comfortable in the 30’s age bracket. Getting old is something I really never liked the thought of, purely on a superficial level, but now I am surrounded by real life role models who are making the ageing process look graceful and honouring of life.
When your own doctor confirms how healthy and radiant you are, and not to stop doing what you are doing, it’s an amazing endorsement of your way of life and the true support that Universal Medicine offers in this. I recently saw a specialist for some surgery, in the consult he was very surprised that I answered “No” to whether I had any of the common illnesses affecting our population, or if I took any medication. Even though I do not have perfect health, my way of life has supported me not to become another statistic and Universal Medicine continues to support me in this. When the government realises how much money they save from people not adding to the health care burden, they may just come knocking on Universal Medicines door to consult with them.
It is so important we embrace all aspects of healing both the energetic and the physical. Universal Medicine embraces both extremely well and is the best model I ever have come across and I have tried quite a few,
Illness and disease rates show us that many people in society are not living healthily or with vitality, when I see people who attend the Universal Medicine presentations and then see them again 6 months later, they are looking younger, lighter and healthier. Love is a great healer.
Western Medicine and Esoteric Medicine working hand in hand is the future of our health care and it can’t come too soon. Meanwhile it is those who have experienced the results and blessings first-hand who reap the benefits.
What’s awesome about the Universal Medicine Modalities, is that it demonstrates the effectiveness of a gentle approach to the body. To get similar or dare I say better results from a gentle and exceptionally loving hands on therapy compared to the crunching and highly manipulative work that can be sourced through other therapies is quite amazing. The latter is not wrong, it just doesn’t feel needed and feels like a result of humanity losing touch with ourselves.
It is a match made in heaven, I agree with you JJ. I do truly believe that Esoteric Medicine is the missing piece of the puzzle, that we’ve all spent so long looking for, It’s great to hear your GP acknowledge your choices as something even he is impressed by.
My life changed the day I met Serge Benhayon as well and because of the changes that I made inspired by him, I too am in better shape than I was twenty years ago. In fact if I hadn’t met him I would hate to think and can only imagine how poor my health would be had this meeting never taken place.
JJ I also love seeing how many people have quite literally transformed their lives as a result of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine. These are not short term changes rather life long ones.
Conventional medicine and esoteric healing are a fantastic combination. I have experienced this combination in the past year and healed so speedily – compared with others who just went the orthodox route for a similar operation. With regard to your doctor JJ – “He has told me to keep doing whatever I’m doing, as he has never seen me looking so well and reckons I’m looking younger each time he sees me. That’s pretty good confirmation for combining both Western Medicine and what Universal Medicine offers as far as I’m concerned.” I so agree.
The complementary therapies offered by Universal Medicine come with a prescription to take responsibility for your own part to play in your health and well-being. Western medicine working hand in hand with Universal Medicine and personal responsibility is the way to live life to the full.
I too love reading stories about how Universal Medicine is inspiring such honest, long-lasting and loving changes in peoples lives and I loved reading yours too.
Sometime in-between Universal Medicine Events i do not see some of the students for 6 months, when I do see them I am aways pleasantly surprised how much younger and healthy they are looking. This is such a confirmation of the tremendous and miraculous work of Universal Medicine.
It makes sense to me that both Western Medicine and Esoteric Medicine should go hand in hand as my experience and so many others before me have noted, there are many times when we need both to achieve a good result.
I have seen many patients attempt to use some complementary therapies to treat all sorts of conditions, but it is being used to replace western medicine. This is not the true meaning of complementary medicine. Western medicine brings a great deal of skill and technology that supports each patient. True complenentary medicine works with western medicine to support the person through a treatment, but also supports them to look at the influences of how we are living and all the choices we make.
It’s really intersting how other therapies simply fell away from your life – you didn’t get told to stop seeing anyone, eventually you made your own choices and thrived from doing so.
It may feel like a “hackneyed expression” that your life changed the day you met Serge Benhayon, but it is an expression that is so very true for me and for many hundreds, if not thousands, of others. It is a day that I celebrate in every moment; the day that I stopped looking outside of me and to others for the answers, and simply turned inwards to find that they were all there and always had been. I am the wisdom that I was searching for.
Thanks to Serge Benhayon I have completely changed my view on Western Medicine and have been much more willing to get to know and understand doctors and who they are as people. I love the fact that I now know how much they care, where 10 years ago I would not have thought that at all. I know Western Medicine is not perfect and that there is a lot more we can each do to support our own health and healing, which to be honest Western Medicine is not great at, but what they do they do very well. Enter Esoteric Medicine which presents the way we live our life is medicine – in every way. When both Esoteric and Western Medicine again rejoin we will have a medicine that is truly universal.
JJ I could so relate to going to the chiropractor to get my back or neck wrenched. I was so desperate to rid myself of the pain that I would ask them to wrench harder until I heard a resounding crack, believing the louder the crack the better the relief. Learning that it was how I was living and interacting with people was the cause of my pain was a revelation and my pain slowly subsided until it is now a rare occasion that I have pain in any part of my body. Listening to my body has been a huge step in claiming back my health and vitality and the combination of western and Universal Medicine is I feel the way forward in reducing an already over burdened health service.
I love the matter of fact way you express JJ. Countless people have experienced incredible changes in their lives as a result of their interactions with Serge Benhayon and it is wonderful to read and hear about these experiences. Serge shows what true power is. Serge walks his talk and his walk comes from a place of absolute commitment to love, responsibility and evolution. This reflection is deeply inspiring and your blog shows how much this meeting with Serge Benhayon supported you to support yourself.
Could it be that the rates of illness and disease are actually telling Western Medicine that it needs to drop its arrogant stance and actually work with complementary medicine? After all, this explosion in the rates of illness and disease have actually occurred on their watch!. We are now in an era that requires more cooperation and collaboration than ever before to find true answers to our every growing problems.
Only through meeting Serge Benhayon was I able to finally heal my adrenal exhaustion by being able to get to the energetic cause and understanding that it was how I was living that was the underlying issue everything else I had tried over the previous 10-15 years had merely been providing a bandaid solution.
I also get the “you seem to look younger” comment a bit as well, which is definitely a nice confirmation to keep doing what I am doing…and that is all based on the what I have learnt through Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon.
It would not be often that a doctor would see a patient whose health and wellbeing is improving rather than deteriorating. No wonder they tell you to keep doing what you are doing. Next step would be for them to ask you what you are doing and maybe even check it out for themselves. The rates of illness and disease are increasing and we will eventually have to start looking at what is working for people and do more of that to support ourselves.
Combining Western Medicine and Universal Medicine therapies have become second nature for me now. They work extremely well together and provide me with the whole picture of what is going on within me.
It sounds like you have a lovely relationship with your doctor and great they acknowledge how well you look, in my experience not many doctors do this. I was reflecting on something yesterday. A while ago I treated myself and booked an afternoon in a spa including a treatment which was a body scrub. I was really looking forward to this but was so disappointment. The treatment felt a bit quick and rushed, and the therapist did not feel like she was 100% present with me. Then I realised, I am used to Esoteric Practitioners where they are 150% present, completely with me (sometimes more than how I am with myself!), never rush, have the highest integrity both energetically and physically. No wonder I felt disappointed! I highly recommend anyone going to Universal Medicines Sacred Esoteric Healing Courses they raise the bar on everything .. including health and well-being.
It is profound the affect on our lives of meeting someone like Serge Benhayon who lives from his inner most being. This experience has changed thousands of people’s lives, mine included. Serge Benhayon simply reflects the fact that we are all divine and that we can; by choice choose to live our divinity on earth in a very simple and ordinary way.
There are people now amongst us who in the midst of a whole momentum of society, are choosing to live in a way that they become more and more vital alive, conscious and connected as they grow older. By just the way they live they are an inspiration.
This is what happened for me also, seeing a man live and walk what he talked in such a humble and open way inspired me deeply. “This one meeting with Serge Benhayon inspired me to make many changes in the way I was living.” I asked myself some big questions about my choices and my responsibility and I knew that I could make changes in my life, it is so empowering to consider this possibility.
It is important to be absolutely honest about how we use any form of medicine: to numb or to heal?
The often overlooked aspect of alternative medicine is the fact that it is a consciousness working against western medicine, at least avoiding it. Universal Medicine always works together with western medicine, which is a beautiful marriage.
True Felix, it is clear from the start that Universal Medicine always works together with western medicine. I have been embracing alternative medicine for years and never wanted to see a doctor in that time, in a way it felt like failing when I did need him. How different now I use both, Universal Medicine and western medicine and I feel how my body feels honoured and can heal what is there to be healed the moment I choose to truly listen.
I agree Felix and have been part of the anti-medicine campaign, which was secretly a way of trying to feel better/special and was initially surprised Universal Medicine was so open to Western Medicine but as you say the marriage between the two works beautifully.
Serge Benhayon is right when he says “Western Medicine & Esoteric Healing as a marriage made in heaven.” Before I came to the teaching of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine I was a little anti Western Medicine but now I can see and have experienced wonderful results by using a combination of western and complimentary Medicine.
Thank you for sharing JJ – the impact of personal lifestyle choices cannot be overlooked as to their effects on health and wellbeing. For me I know I had to change my perspective on the word ‘responsibility’ and make it a loving word and not one to be shied away from.
This is very beautiful JJ, as this lets us see that Universal Medicine and Western Medicine as something that combine very well together – with great use and benefits. It seems that in this way we can look at health from a physical point of view and inner-state of being type of view, this is medicine itself – an all round medicine available for everyone.
I agree Danna. True medicine takes account of the physical, emotional and mental aspects of any condition, illness or disease and works optimally when conventional and complementary medicine are facilitated and optimised by our personal commitment and responsibility for our wellbeing and vitality. Without this, the full extent of the healing cannot take place.
Absolutely and well explained. Responsibility and healing is one. One can not do without the other. Thank you Cathy.
I used to have to suffer from a lot of back pain and saw a Chiropractor once a week, sometimes twice a week for an adjustment. I also felt uncomfortable with the neck cracking and the harsh manipulation of my joints, which needed constant appointments to hold in place, but I kept it up because I did get some relief from this. One of the greatest choices I made was to stop seeing the Chiropractor and allowing my body to gently heal itself. For years now I have not suffered back pain at all, thanks to Serge Benhayon and beginning a journey of true healing and learning to love myself the pain I had felt in my body started to shift and heal.
We live in a world where most people are seeking instant cures when they are unwell and so there is much marketing pushing towards this end goal. There is such greed and vested interest out there in society that it is little wonder that so many of us have invested heavily in other forms of healing, forever hopeful that we will be ‘fixed’ in a hurry. Esoteric medicine doesn’t promise anything but does offer a way to understand root causes of our illness’ and diseases that then require us to really take account of our choices etc that have led to our current state of health. When we use Western medicine with such a perspective we really give ourselves a wonderful opportunity for great results.
The testimonies from people who have combined the Esoteric Healing modalities, Conventional Medicine and their own lifestyle choices are some of my favourite blogs. In a world of rising illness and disease and now with people having not just one illness but many stacked on top of each other this marriage between the three aspects is nothing short of everyday miracles.
This is Amazing! A huge turnaround in itself and something you rarely hear these days even in the midst of all of the healing, spiritual and health modalities we have nowadays.
Thank you JJ for sharing, I was the opposite to you I had shunned conventional medicine for a long time, and since coming to Universal Medicine, during a time of illness, I came to experience how learning to lovingly take care of my body along with Conventional Medicine gave me, my body, the best possible outcome.
I can relate Jill as I had given up on conventional medicine and was seeking within the alternative range of modalities for the cure to my many illnesses. But since finding Universal Medicine I have developed a new relationship with conventional medicine and now combine the two.
Great straight up blog JJ I feel that in the future the whole world will come to realise the importance of Esoteric therapies and see that when understood, they will certainly help prevent many illnesses, as the causes will be so much better understood. This will also relive the burden already on our current health systems.
The combination of esoteric and conventional medicine certainly ensures you have everything covered
Living connected to your essence and making choices in life that honour this essence and the body it is housed in have a remarkable impact on health. There is no greater medicine than the medicine of the way you live each day and the choices you make.
A wonderful read JJ, in seeing how complementary the Esoteric therapies and Western Medicine are.
It’s so true JJ, vitality and good health are excellent reasons to keep doing what you’re doing. We are so blessed to have these modalities to support us.
JJ you are a living testament of bringing love and truth in your life, and a great confirmation of the power of the choices made.
Isn’t it interesting that when we truly start to feel what we need as people to take care of us – it really is quite simple. Yes the machinations and end points of all that we have chosen end up as symptoms that need and will gain support from Western Medicine. Ultimately our choices are what turn around ill health and disease. This alongside the absolute love and dedication of the Universal Medicine trained practitioners throughout the world and a commitment to our own selves.
I too love hearing people’s experiences of coming to meet Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine. I don’t recall exactly the first time we met but I do remember attending his presentations initially. There was something about them that I knew I just did not want to miss, and this stands to this day. Serge is a great teacher and presenter of all that he does. I look forward to many more years of hearing him speak, and all of the wisdom he is here to share with us all.
My life also changed the moment I meet Serge Benhayon. It was a moment of instant recognition with a deep sense of trust and coming home. A moment of complete surrender where the armour melted and I knew I could deeply trust the wisdom and love of the man that stood before me.
The healing modalities and the continuous development of a loving relationship with myself that has followed has been deeply supportive and the best medicine I could have asked for. And all this has been made available with genuine love and care .
With deep appreciation, I walk beside Serge Benhayon and all the practitioners at Universal medicine for all that they brings to Humanity is of a healing quality.
“That’s pretty good confirmation for combining both Western Medicine and what Universal Medicine offers as far as I’m concerned.” Absolutely JJ – the way of living that Serge Benhayon presents if we choose to live it is a great way to stave off illness and disease and western medicine is there to help us gauge where our bodies are at, at any given time. If we do find something amiss then Universal Medicine and its’ practitioners can help us to deal with the underlying cause in order to effect a healing.
Over the years I have visited the doctors on many occasions due to being ill with many different conditions and had got to the point where I started to look at alternative therapies, some of which seemed too good to be true and actually nothing changed, except my bank balance. Then when I started to listen to what Serge Benhayon had to say about western medicine, two things happened – I started to look at my health care differently and the part I have played in it, and to understand the limitations of western medicine, of which I have since developed a new appreciation for the hard work they do.
I really do have the best health care there is to offer – taking responsibility for my own health, western medicine and the Esoteric Healing.
Thank you JJ for sharing. What an awesome confirmation from your Doctor, combining both Western Medicine and what Universal Medicine is definitely the way to go!
In the past I had never considered going to a Doctor’s before if I wasn’t sick, I only saw the Doctor as a place where you would go to ‘be made better’. There was a real lack of responsibility with this as I never looked at how I was living and then just expected that regardless of what I ate or how I lived the Doctor would be able to do something to fix me. The teachings from Serge Benhayon have totally changed my perspective on this, it has supported me to take more responsibility for my life, my situations, my health and my wellbeing and also the impact my state of being has on others. This is a true change needed for our health and there is a great partnership that can be had between western medicine and universal medicine.
It is only since coming across the teachings of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine that I am now firmly aligned to the practices of conventional western medicine. Used wisely in conjunction with responsible self-care and awareness, it can bring enormous healing – and the benefits are self-evident.
Thank you JJ for sharing how you are now using the services of Western Medicine to support your self loving choices since being inspired by Universal Medicine to turnaround your health and wellbeing. No wonder your doctor is happy to see you because you are taking responsibility for your health and not looking to him to fix you.
True JJ, as far as I am concerned too, it is the best combination I reckon.. Or at least it has changed my health completely having met Serge Benhayon.. Wow. If I look back at my life before I met Serge, I can say that I was an unhappy girl who was always looking for love outside of her. I was so desperate of attention and compliments, because without it I did not know who I was. I was having very painful body pains (monthly) and I was having common accidents. I was just not feeling or knowing myself really. I was running around from A to B, I did not find it. Until I did find myself at a Universal Medicine course in June 2010.. I was stunned, I was hearing Serge Benhayon speak, all I could do was look and hear him speak which blew me away. That was it! I could finally feel a deep truth that he was speaking about that I was looking for.. But guess what?! It was not the words he spoke but the connection he spoke with.. A connection with himself and God. I knew this too. I was so so exited, I was so happy, I knew I was close to meeting my soul again. And so I did. I have found that I got this amazing body, but that I have been driving it in disregard so. I have not acknowledged (actually had no Idea how) the truth inside my body.. Until I saw this man on stage. This connection is what I recognized again for the first time in my life – by this man on stage – his name is Serge Benhayon.
When I was doing the course I got tools to learn and practice how to connect with myself. I learned the gentle breath and how to be conscious present with my mind/body with what I am doing.. This helped me so much that I was straight away more in my body – and so more knowing of who I was. So this is showing how incredible we can life and actually re-connect to our health again – by the absolute support of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine, without them I would have never found what I have found now – I AM BACK !
I can very well relate to this JJ. Conventional medicine has been and is helpful and supportive in many situations, where symptoms have to be cured, surgery has to be performed, etc.. Universal Medicine will then address the root causes that led to the illness in the first way and will support us in dissolving these root causes.
Conventional medicine + Universal Medicine = the most powerful healing that is on offer.
What a great confirmation, and this is one that I hear and see so often, that it is possible to actually look and feel younger clearer fitter, and to be obviously enjoying life in the face of the huge wave of angst, anxiousness, stress and drive that most people , are riding.
One of the many things I value highly about Universal Medicine is that it is a strong advocate of conventional medicine. We seem to have developed a trend, a consciousness, that it’s either ‘alternative’ medicine or conventional and for many, resorting to conventional medicine is seen as a failure – of the body and mind to heal itself under will – and only to be sought when all other avenues have failed. Universal Medicine is a complementary medicine, not stand-alone and in my experience highly sensible and wise, bringing at the heart of its teachings the role of personal responsibility for our every day choices in the way we’re living our lives.
Cathy great points and I would reiterate that Universal Medicine is complementary TO Western Medicine.
Fantastic to read, it always amazes me how one meeting with Serge Benhayon and being open to can completely change lives. Awesome to hear how you made such loving changes.
I believe Western Medicine and Universal Medicine are a match made in heaven.
The marriage of conventional medicine with universal medicine therapies is a match made in heaven. At times surgery and medication is necessary, this combined with addressing the energetic cause of the illness is the road to true and complete healing. When this match becomes mainstream our health system will begin to change in a positive way.
It is the changes I/ we make from the inside out that are truly of lasting benefit. If we have a physical condition present it is always reflecting a deeper level of disharmony in the body from our own choices and lifestyles. It is unreasonable to expect a physician to heal us if we are not taking the responsibility for our part. Working with the support of both western and complementary medicine we have the possibility to experience a true healing. Universal Medicine offers many healing modalities that address the whole being, body, mind and Soul.
I had a very similar experience JJ,”As I became aware and felt the true reflection of love Serge presents, I recognised on a very deep level there was more to life than the superficial way we humans go about things.” I had always felt we were living a life far less than who we are but had not met a living reflection of that truth that absolutely confirmed the fact. Truth will always recognise itself, a moment of divinity.
That is so true, a true way of living is noticed by people like your GP. Beautiful confirmation that the choices that you are making are having a good effect on your health. Keep it going.
Hi JJ.On re-visiting your blog I feel to add to your illuminating story and I can say that from my own experience I have learned that I have a responsibility for caring for my body to the best of my ability, and that that learning also embraces the fact that there indeed seems to be a real need out there in the wider world for the marriage of Western or what is known as Traditional Medicine with the Complementary Medicine as presented by Serge Benhayon via the vehicle of Universal Medicine. At one point several years ago I felt the need to change my doctor when it was expressed vehemently that I was being irresponsible by considering any form of support other than that that was learned at Medical School approximately four or so decades earlier. What I felt in my body was that was not how I felt truth to be – and that in fact that has been shown to me since then in neon lights so to speak, when pain I had been experiencing for more than 20 years was finally laid to rest once I had commenced the Universal Medicine Therapies, including Esoteric Healing, but specifically Esoteric Connective Tissue Therapy and Esoteric Chakra Puncture. I feel too that I want to shout that from the rooftops so others may have the possibility of there being revealed a deeper awareness as to their physical ills and ailments, afterall, everybody has an understanding deep within that we are more than flesh and bones, and that all is energy before it is matter.
Hi JJ. I have in the past few years, since becoming a Student of Universal Medicine realised how well both modalities work together. I have an illness where I need to see a Specialist about twice per year but I find the most helpful for my body is when I have Esoteric Physiotherapy with Kate Greenaway. The healing and gentle exercises that I do are wonderful!
I used to be depend on western medicine alone, until I came across Complementary Medicine, I then got heavily caught up in this. Not realising some modalities where harming and not actually supportive. When I came across Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine it was different, Serge shared about the Ageless Wisdom, True Science and how Western Medicine and Universal Medicine work hand in hand to create a healthy life. I put this into practice myself and the changes in my life have been amazing.
I also love reading people’s life changing stories since meeting Serge Benhayon and look forward to reading many more as the numbers grow.
‘My doctor loves my visits as I am rarely ill. He has told me to keep doing whatever I’m doing, as he has never seen me looking so well and reckons I’m looking younger each time he sees me. That’s pretty good confirmation for combining both Western Medicine and what Universal Medicine offers as far as I’m concerned’ for me too JJ. Great blog.
My feeling is that doctors are at long last beginning to understand the impact of lifestyle on our health, especially when they can see the results so many of us are now experiencing as a result of choosing a healthier lifestyle. I have a twice yearly appointment with an endocrinologist who checks me out for a borderline hyperactive thyroid – he knows that my health has improved as a direct result of changes I have made – his medical records of medication I was taking (now zero), reducing blood test readings (T3 and T4) and dramatically reduced weight are ongoing physical evidence, and that is now acknowledged in his recent letter to my GP.
The body of evidence is building and can no longer be denied.
It’s hard to beat this testimonial; it’s hard for the GP to ignore strong anecdotal evidence – and it’s so simple to make more loving choices once we’re made aware that we can. Love this blog.
I totally agree Oliver Hallock there is a beautiful humbleness in presenting oneself to a practitioner and them feeling and seeing a result that says life is about living truth.
absolutely Oliver I too love this blog for the fact that those in medicine can recognise and see the power of taking deep care of yourself. It is all in our hands.
I am not surprised your doctor is so happy to see you, JJ. Most of us go to see a doctor to get our problem diagnosed and fixed, often after having left it too long.
Yes Fumiyo, we can place a lot of expectations on the medical practitioners to ‘fix’ our problems, and what a joy it must be for a Doctor to feel when someone like JJ is taking responsibility and supporting their own overall health at a deeper level.
It is so honouring of yourself to address what needs to be addressed by Western Medicine and at the same time be very loving and caring of your body – considerate of what you eat, how you move and what you think. True responsibility – as taught by Universal Medicine.
When I look back at the state of my health and well-being when I was in my 20’s, I was tired, depressed, low energy and frequently got sick. Now in my 40’s I have more energy and vitality and my health and well-being has improved enormously. The support and love offered by Universal Medicine and it’s practitioners has inspired me to make choices in my life that truly heal.
Yes JJ, for me too, combining conventional medicine with Universal Medicine has been the most supportive and loving thing I have ever done for my body. The dysfunctions, pain and developing disease processes I had have gone and I am feeling much younger than my 62 years. I cant speak highly enough of Serge Benhayon and his work, it is revolutionary. I am also a nurse and experience more and more every day how essential it is to combine the two for a wholeness to be achieved for each and every one of us on the planet.
This is such a great confirmation to a way of living that is truly honouring of your body, thank you for sharing, really enjoyed the simplicity and power of your expression.
My life and my health has changed so much as well, since I got the support of western medicine and Universal Medicine. I have to thank Serge as well for being a role model of how to live love, harmony, stillness, joy and truth.
Since I came across Universal medicine, and made some life changes to support my well being, I have had hardly any visits to the doctor besides a regular checkup. I feel and look a lot younger than my age. I recall I use to get a lot of colds before, and since I cut out dairy from my diet, i no longer get these reoccurrence colds.
Taking responsibility for our health and wellbeing and understanding this from an energetic perspective and then fleshing it out from there has transformed how I think and feel about life and its purpose. Meeting Serge and experiencing all the Universal Medicine therapies and presentations has changed my life not only for me but, I feel, for all those that come into contact with me.
Nice build on JJ article, Suzanne. Understanding health and well-being from an energetic point of view is key.
Yes Suzanne I agree, everyone receives the benefits when we are taking responsibility both physically and energetically for our own health and well being, from those in our immediate family, friends and work colleagues etc, to the whole of the currently overburdened Medical System.
That is the key Suzanne the fleshing it out with understanding and responsibility. I was talking to a gallbladder surgeon and she was sharing that with key hole surgery the person can go home on the same day of the op. This shocked me and I could see how possible it would be to miss the deeper message coming from your body about how you have lived to result in needing an organ to be removed. We have set up a system that rescues us from our choices and that system is now broken and yet we are still carrying on….
I observe many men, women and children who are part of Universal Medicine – and it is fascinating to see how they are looking younger, more vital and more open.
I don’t know why we worry about things like botox or facelifts if true medicine can be lived just by connecting to ourselves and expressing in full.
Some would call the before and afters a miracle – but really we are all sitting on a gold mine of who we truly are.
The work of Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon has changed my life to the point where my life and me are in two separate worlds. Never have I ever come across such a gentle, loving approach to all aspects of life and my health has thanked me for it. Thank you JJ for sharing.
I know what you mean leigh I feel like I have lived two lives, pre Universal Medicine and one post, they are VASTLY different but the greatest difference is how I feel on the inside, how I can now feel my worth and the love that resides there and I am incrementally making that the most important thing in my life.
Very recently I had a situation where the pre and post Universal Medicine days came back to me via some old friends I hadn’t seen for years now. How I respond and react now is completely different to how I would of back then and that connection from within I feel has made the difference. Being confronted with my past choices from where I stand now (while nowhere near perfect) has been far more loving than it would have been all those years ago when there was no sense of the love within me. A sense of responsibility is also another trait that I would never have entertained back then but now it feels far more supportive to take responsibility rather than blaming, reacting and avoiding.
There certainly is an amazing difference in someone like Serge Benhayon. He is so ready to serve people and will never give anyone less. He’s shown me the true meaning of the word commitment
I agree Harryjwhite, Serge is a true marker of the love and commitment that is possible, if we just allow it.
As you say JJ, it might be a: “hackneyed expression” but one that is undeniably true, as my life too changed, in fact it began to turn right around, from the moment I met Serge Benhayon. And the biggest part of that turnaround was the return to embrace Western medicine again, and over the years since, I have found that the union of this form of medicine combined with the wisdom of Esoteric Medicine and most importantly the growth of my responsibility for the care of my body, has made a huge and life changing difference in my health and well being.
Its nice when we start to take responsibility for our health and well being and become mindful of our lifestyle choices. I agree the universal medicine esoteric healing modalities go well as a support to western medicine.
I agree Greg and the thing that has been most profound for me after meeting Serge Benhayon is taking responsibility for my health and my lifestyle choices. My awareness of myself has grown and I now truly honour and love myself in the choices I make.
I have noticed that the students of Universal Medicine look and feel younger as the years go by too. I feel that the lifestyle changes we continue to make plus the support of Universal Medicine and Western Medicine brings a new vitality and sense of well-being.
I totally agree Elaine, I’ve seen many people who are growing more vital, alive and genuinely joyful through the support of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.
It is incredible to watch the students of Universal Medicine age as they do get younger looking, more vital more gorgeous and that can be month to month significant changes in how they look. It is really amazing and a great testament to choices.
Thank you Vanessa. It is true it is our choices that allow for the changes. And a reminder for me to appreciate not only the choices those around me have made but also for myself for making more loving choices too.
I had turned my back to western medicine and was completely lost in every New Age Therapy I would come across. Meeting Serge Benhayon and the esoteric therapies has made I don’t have to look else where, everything is within me and just like you are sharing the combination of Western medicine, the Universal Medicine therapies and the choice to live a life with responsibility for our my body has changed my life.
I can relate Annelies. I turned my back on Western Medicine until I was diagnosed with breast cancer when I finally decided that Western Medicine had a lot to offer and possibly saved my life. I love how Esoteric Therapies and Western Medicine work together to heal the whole. Both are needed and make a perfect match.
It’s important as you do Donna acknowledge that western medicine offers a lot to many of us when we are in need of that sort of help and that is where Serge has always been pro the marriage of what we feel and healing with surgery or medication when necessary. There is no shame in it it is supporting us to heal!
JJ it is so cool what you have shared I love the way the esoteric therapies can support the process of Western Medicine.
I have not had Spinal Alignment therapy but is makes so much sense to me to have a therapy that is gentle and loving on the body as opposed to a treatment that is hard on the body.
Hi JJ, I grew up in a small town where the only form of treatment was your doctor and this is what serviced our family in illness. The doctor was a respected and valued part of the community. I was blessed with good health but there were times that I felt there were things going on in my body that could not be addressed by western medicine and so would wait until these periods of unwellness passed on there own. Moving to a bigger centre I became familar with other alternative therapies and found when I untilised these services they worked for a short time but eventually something in me felt that they were capping the level of health I felt and that there must be something more. It was at this time I listened to one of Serge Benhayon’s presentations and knew that this was the missing element. Connecting with me and working in a loving way in caring for me was part of what was missing. When feelings of unwellness happened I first felt into what my body had to say and then depending on the condition, would either see my local doctor or see a complmentary Universal Medicine practitioner. The marriage of the two forms of medicine with my active involvement has been a healing and truly loving experience.
There’s nothing stronger than a self-testimonial, anecdotal account like this. I say strong; strong confirmation for yourself to keep-on keeping-on just as your GP said. Great blog.
The truth that we are affected by energy is an idea that is dismissed by western medicine. The spiritual new age modalities that may teach as much are neglectful of the truths that western medicine has to offer. Neither way is working as proven by the growing rates of illness stacking up against the science and technology developments that has never been as advanced. Something is not working. Something is lacking in our approach to health and well-being. The sooner we arrive at this honesty as a human race, the sooner we will be availed of unnecessary and preventable illnesses.
Wunderbare JJ that is absolutely awesome what you share here. It is an invitation to find out by oneself what can happen to combine Western Medicine and Universal Medicine. It is always the best to find out by ourselves if something helps or not.
A great testament to value and benefits of combining the approaches of Western Medicine and that of Universal Medicine. Having experienced the Spinal Alignment I, too, would never return to a chiropractor.
Hmm, I had forgotten that cracking sound from chiropractor/ osteopath visits. I got to know when it was coming as it was always preceded by,’just relax’!!!
It feels to me as though connective tissue therapy offers my body the choice to change, no imposition from the practitioner, just options
Yes, Universal Medicine is truly special, as it addresses the core of illness and well-being. Where Western Medicine can help with physical symptoms. I found the most wholesomely healing in esoteric healing modalities – and most importantly in the way of living as inspired and presented by Serge Benhayon, that is the best medicine ever, and it’s not bitter at all, quiet the opposite – I totally enjoy it.
In my early years I only went to Western Medicine doctors to support my health; this I discovered did not always support the whole being. I then turned to new age therapies in my 20’s. After awhile I could see how these therapies did not support me – in fact they did me more harm then good. Now I use a combination of Western Medicine and Universal Medicine Therapies and I feel and look the best I have ever.
My family were very pro medicine but living a long way from town meant that they were also pretty self reliant when it came to looking after their health. This meant that we were taught to take responsibility for our physical bodies – but only in a very functional sense. It wasn’t until I started to attend Universal Medicine presentations by Serge Benhayon that I learned that true health meant taking responsibility in every facet of how I lived my life. I appreciate this deeper understanding and now value both Western and complementary medicine.
Nice. After reading this I’m glad I never went and saw a chiropractor as it sounds like they manipulate your body and make it do things unnaturally. When I read about The Esoteric treatments offered by Universal Medicine, I am amazed at how non-imposing they are and are designed to help me very gently. Like you I’ve always been going to the doctor and dentist since I was born and don’t regret a thing. Introducing Esoteric therapies into the picture for me has been an amazing addition and my health has never been better.
Beautiful confirmation indeed JJ. As the name implies, Universal Medicine is not separate to any form of true medicine and encompasses all that is there to support us physically and energetically – of course including the very much needed at this time ‘Western’ medicine’.
Western Medicine and Universal Medicine are the best combination, each area offering so much when combined. The more this is accepted by western medicine the less pressure will be on our health system this combined with self responsibility will see an enormous change in society. I personally have reduced my effect on the health system by looking at how I live and what I eat, taking responsibility for my choices it is a great feeling knowing.
JJ, I agree that we are so much more than our ailments and that there is more to life than we think. This is in fact what our ailments are presenting to us to consider. It is beautiful to read how you chose to go deeper and discovered a loving way that supports your well-being, all of you, through esoteric medicine which you have also experienced is a powerful combination and complimentary to modern medicine. Thank you for sharing your inspiring experience.
The response from your doctor JJ confirms what Serge Benhayon has been saying all along regarding the need for a combined approach to health care between conventional medicine and the healing offered by Universal Medicine.
Thank you JJ for sharing your story. I too, in the past, had many visits to the chiropractor, which were ongoing, looking for a way to fix my problem. Isn’t it amazing, the healing that comes from our body when we choose to self-love, self-care and self-nurture? I too get comments now about how well I am looking.
It is becoming clearer and clearer that we as a society need to take far greater responsibility for our health. What better way to support ourselves than with a combination of conventional medicine and the healing modalities offered by Universal Medicine?
JJ you offer a whole new concept for why we would visit the doctor. Visits to confirm our health and wellbeing instead of to confirm our ill health.
Coupling Esoteric Healing modalities as offered through Universal Medicine, with Western Medicine where needed, is the complete package for well being. Our state of health starts with us! For me, before Universal Medicine self care were not words I associated with let alone practised.
A great sharing on the power of Universal Medicine and Western medicine combined and taking responsibility for our bodies and health. I too understand your life changing experience from meeting Serge – a clear cut difference of life before and life after and they just don’t even begin to compare.
The foundation of my self care has come from the understanding I have gained from Universal Medicine and the practical support comes from Western Medicine. I love that I am responsible for my healing and have both Medicines available to me.
Meeting Serge Benhayon is life changing. Totally agree. It is amazing how much I have re-imprinted my life in the last few years!
I agree emfeldman , meeting Serge Benhayon for the first time was a life changer for me too! the level of care, love and equality shifted so much within myself, as I had never experienced anything like that before in my life.Since then I have learnt to take responsibility for the choices that I make and support my body for what it truly needs.The results in my health and wellbeing are amazing.
Thank you for the confirmation JJ. Universal Medicine brings us the fact that the quality of our health is something that is very much in our own hands. We should always be thankful for the fact of Western Medicine, for it provides a crutch when all else fails. Unfortunately the modern way of thinking is that medicine is a word that is owned by the medical profession, rather than being a word that they and society is part of – equally so. If we accepted this fact – that people have an equally important role to play in their own health – then that would fundamentally change the way we view our hospital system. For immediately we would start to view the pressure that is being placed on our hospital system, as a reason for us to question the way we are living and thus contributing to the problem, rather as being reason to complain to the government that the medical system does not have the fiscal support needed to look after our health. And that this is in fact the underlying reason for its poor performance – ludicrous and may I say, irresponsible indeed.
Proof is in the pudding’ as the saying goes, a clear example that how we choose to care for ourself (or not) our body always reflects.
I agree, the proof is in the pudding, our body reflects it all.
The amazing healing I have received through combining Universal Medicine treatments and Western Medicine has left me feeling more vital, alive and energetic than I have ever felt since I was 17. Nothing too drastic in respect of lifestyle changes, and nothing that my mother didn’t roll her eyes and say ‘but I’ve been telling you that for years – to look after yourself better’. The difference is now I have the true motivation to take care of myself and my body, and it just keeps getting better.
To me this is the perfect example of how complementary Universal Medicine modalities and Western Medicine truly are. You are taking great care of your body JJ, with the practitioners that feel right for you, and you are also getting regular check ups with your GP. Makes absolute sense to me and your health is reflecting back to you your choices – looking and feeling great!
I agree, I felt this when I met Serge Benhayon, although for me I reacted as much as I felt met – “There was a true respecting and valuing of me as I felt truly met.” I reacted because it was an unfamiliar experience. Through this reaction I could still feel the quality of relationship that he was sharing and the truth that it held, and it is something that I am now building within myself. I have begun to care of myself and I also see my doctor for a check up – and they are often commenting on how healthy I am.
What a great reflection of you when your doctor expresses to “keep doing what you are doing”, it shows the amazing benefit of both western and complimentary medicines. Universal medicine and western medicine is a marriage made in heaven, as it offers a truly holistic approach to healing. Thanks for what you have shared here JJ.
I had sought many other alternative or complimentary forms of healing in the past but found that Western Medicine and the Universal Medicine therapies to be the perfect most well rounded and effective combination.
Yes Rob, this has also been my experience. Before meeting Serge Benhayon I had become very disillusioned with conventional medicine and sought alternative forms of healing. However hearing Serge present inspired me to have more confidence in conventional medicine and I now combine Western Medicine with Universal Medicine therapies and like you, I find this ‘to be the perfect most well rounded and effective combination’.
Me too Rob. There is no them or us with Universal Medicine therapies. Rather, in my experience, a collaboration and working together to best serve the needs of the individual, helping to heal and treat the whole rather than just one aspect, together they are a powerful combination.
I agree Rob, combining Western Medicine with Universal Medicine Therapies is such a gentle, nurturing way to create harmony and vitality within my body.
Doctors must be scratching their heads all around the world with students of Universal Medicine going in – healthy and saying I am here for my tune up – checking in that all is well. Going in with health and vitality and responsibility – great combination indeed!
How wonderful it is to have both Universal Medicine and convential medicine available, together they are very supporting and healing for the body. They complement each other in the healing process of the body. The body is in constant healing from the moment it’s born to the moment it dies.
I agree Amita, we are quite literally blessed to have both Universal Medicine and Conventional Medicine available to us – both are needed and both can truly support us living the full vital us and not simply existing and seeking function, as I used to use medicine for.
I agree Amita and Jamesnicholson27 because I made the same experience like you. So, if people don’t trust our experiences then it could be a good idea if they would find out what is possible by themselves.
“My doctor loves my visits as I am rarely ill. He has told me to keep doing whatever I’m doing, as he has never seen me looking so well and reckons I’m looking younger each time he sees me. That’s pretty good confirmation for combining both Western Medicine and what Universal Medicine offers .” I can vouch for the combination of both too, looking and feeling younger than I did 10 years ago.
Great response from your doctor and one that I can relate to. With the support of Universal Medicine Therapies and presentations and conventional medicine I have never been healthier or more vital.
JJ I absolutely love your down to earth and straight talking approach. I am with you – I absolutely love hearing about the experiences that people have with Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine because they are invariably inspiring and a confirmation of the incredible blessing on offer from this man (Serge) and business (Universal Medicine). Thank you so much for sharing your story with us. Like your doctor, I reckon you are on to something.
That fact that your meeting with Serge Benhayon has changed your life shows how much integrity, love and care this man has for everyone. Meeting him you feel so seen, so understood, so loved – and isn’t that what we all long for the most? It is a deeply healing experience!
Absolutely Judith. Feeling seen, understood and loved is so deeply healing. So much so that it can change our life forever!
JJ, the way you have presented your experience with Universal Medicine is simple and great – just seeing a practitioner that you felt immediate connection with (Serge Benhayon) and then discovering another practitioner within the UM Clinic that takes a gentle approach with your back (with spine alignment) is a preferred treatment over the chiropractic that you were previously receiving. I agree, Western Medicine and what is offered by Universal Medicine are completely complementary – I’m sure I never really understood what this meant until I married these two together and I am now also experiencing the best health of my life.
What a lovely affirmation JJ, that you have indeed found ‘true healing’. But more importantly, it’s all your self loving choices that have affected your health in such a positive way.
I have also started to develop the same relationship with my GP and get the same response from him… Keep doing whatever it is you are doing… what I am doing is applying what I have learnt through Universal Medicine.
Joel that is a similar comment from my father saying I looked amazing and to keep doing what I have been doing. Which is applying the learning from Universal Medicine.
Great confirmation from your GP. Not that you needed it!
Thank you JJ for your lovely account of combining Western and Universal Medicine, it put a smile on my face when I read that you got your GP’s approval to keep doing whatever you were doing, because it was working. That’s pretty unusual to hear a GP support unorthodox medicine.
JJ what a lovely account of how the two can be married in a way that respects and honours what both have to offer. We need Western medicine, let’s face it without it we would be in a far worse place, but we also need to look beyond the functional parts of the body and work with what lies at the root of the physical ailments and illness we encounter.
I had many chiropractic treatments leaving me feeling very sore and pummeled. The Esoteric Body Work is the most subtle yet supportive treatment, it allows my body to heal in a really gentle way. I find all the Esoteric Healing Modalities very supportive in healing myself, with the teachings of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine. Western Medicine and Universal Medicine do work very well together. Universal Medicine teachings are the way that has supported me to truly heal.
Combining Western Medicine with complementary medicine feels like a winning formula to me!
So true Brooke, rather than setting up two opposing sides, lets look a true universal medicine…something that serves mankind and not individual egos and ideals.
A winning formula indeed Brooke, so simple yet so profound.
It makes so much sense to me that both complementary medicine and western medicine can together bring a holistic approach to medicine that is currently missing. I am forever inspired by the fact that this balance has been truly shown by Universal Medicine.
That’s pretty impressive your doctor is telling you to keep doing what you’re doing. Recently I’ve been experiencing how well both complimentary medicine and western medicine work together. Both are so important and cannot be without the other..
Well in some people’s lives they can be but they often only search for a solution rather than go to the ill root of the issue, strain or illness. I recently discovered that I have an illness that cannot yet be treated by western medicine, and so with the knowing that I can address the true root issue with complimentary medicine, reassures me that the choice to heal is really in my hands. So thank you to Universal Medicine for allowing me to be aware of this.
All this talk of cracking, chiropractors, and neck-wrenching makes me feel really uncomfortable to the point of nauseous. Just thinking about it or rather, sensing the energetic manipulation of it, makes me squirm. I have never been to a chiropractor and never will, just seems too confronting to the body and disrespectful of all the subtle, rhythmic aspects of the human being.
I agree Paul, I once had my bones cracked and realigned and it didn’t feel right, I much prefer the idea of a gentle realignment that allows the body to naturally reconfigure it’s correct spacing… something I believe the body is capable of in the hands of a skilled practitioner. I have experienced this through Universal Medicine and connective tissue therapy. JJ, you are obviously on to something and your Doctor seems to agree. Isn’t it amazing the effects looking after both our outer and inner health can have on us?
Paul and Stephen, I did see a chiropractor for a short while. The manipulations were not painful but the sounds produced were alarming. The treatment did nothing for my migraines. Some time ago I was introduced to the gentlest and most caring chiropractor you could meet. She has realigned my body and I should mention that she is a practitioner of Universal Medicine!
You know that you are on the right track when a medical professional says: ‘keep doing whatever you’re doing, you look great!’ Sounds like you have found a winning combo there JJ and proof that you have gone past the superficial layer of life, to the heart of your health. Well done.
Indeed Liane – it is a great compliment to receive from a doctor/medical professional – I too have also had the comment made to me by my GP and it is testament to the choices I have also made as a result of being inspired by Universal Medicine to take responsibility for the way I live my life.
True Liane, I too have had a GP express some wonder at how well I am doing for my age. And I don’t need that confirmation from the doctor as my body confirms it to me every day.. just as also it reminds me when I am taking it off track. Great feedback on both counts – it works pretty fine as evidence-based medicine for me.
Always great to hear Annie, it is funny how when you go in for a check up the GPs say wow I would like blood tests like yours. It shows how easy we can learn everything about the human body but if we fail to live it and put into practice what the body requires then no amount of knowledge will ever truly help us.
Thank you JJ, Lianne, James and Annie, I agree, this is amazing evidence based medicine – bringing ‘the heart of our health’ is so easily seen in these few comments!
Dear JJ,
I to grew up in a family that only visited medical doctors to support our health. As I went into my late teens and early 20’s I too began to visit a chiropractor. I should say here that it became a need for me. I was feeling many sore niggly pains and a visit to the chiropractor seemed to “fix” these, however not for very long though and then back I would go. In all the times I went to a chiropractor I never felt at ease or even relaxed with what was being done to my body. Certainly a far cry from how I care for myself now. I know if there is a pain or soreness in my body that this is my body speaking to me and instead of wanting to get rid of it I feel what it is bringing for me to consider in how I am living and caring for myself. This way of being constantly brings adjustments in how I live my days.
I look back at my chiropractic sessions and remember how it seemed ‘normal’ to have my body cracked and for bits to make sounds and go pop. What Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon have reminded me that we are naturally gentle being. Not only is our tenderness allowed but its something to be cherished. And so I cherish you JJ and your blog about these loving choices.
Thanks JJ, you can’t get better endorsement than what your doctor said! Like yourself, my own health has improved remarkably since attending Universal Medicine. More than that, the joy I now live with from being connected to the self makes life a truly beauty experience. Universal Medicine events are really supportive in so many ways and they are incredibly interesting and a lot of fun – I really look forward to attending everything I can get to, their workshops and retreat are highlights in my year.
Awesome reflection from your GP JJ! I followed many natural therapies and held a deep distrust of mainstream medicine – I used naturopathic, homoeopathic, and herbal remedies to name a few… since I was introduced to Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon, I have connected to using mainstream services and I also find the true balance created between mainstream and esoteric modalities to be incredibly supportive. These two are now all that I feel I need. and I can attest to looking and feeling so much better now than I did when I was younger! I recently updated my drivers license and was astounded to see my current picture – ten years on – looked ten years younger than the previous one – like they should have been the other way around!
“I recognised on a very deep level there was more to life than the superficial way we humans go about things”. So true JJ -and perhaps when we do begin to feel this fact, we also might begin to review how we live and make different choices that affect our vitality and wellbeing. When we do, it can be age-defying. I have noticed this with the Universal Medicine student body, as the majority of people I know there do look 10 years younger than their age!
I agree with you JJ, both are there to support us.
Lovely confirmation of your GP, just by looking at you and experiencing you, he could tell how you felt -a young chap getting younger every year!
The spinal alignment therapy introduced by Universal Medicine is indeed a much needed and amazing modality in the field of body work. As a Physiotherapist I have found it one of the most effective and precise techniques I have studied. What makes it very different from many chiropractic and Physiotherapy techniques is that combined with some discussion about lifestyle and why the pain is there in the first place, the effects of the treatment really last. It is a modality that needs to be studied and eventually presented to many more body workers.
JJ, this part specifically stood out for me “My doctor loves my visits as I am rarely ill. He has told me to keep doing whatever I’m doing, as he has never seen me looking so well and reckons I’m looking younger each time he sees me. That’s pretty good confirmation for combining both Western Medicine and what Universal Medicine offers as far as I’m concerned.” – I know exactly what you are talking about as I have the same experience. We are living testimonies of the work of Universal Medicine.
Great your GP is telling you to keep doing what you are doing, a beautiful confirmation. Western Medicine and the Universal Medicine Therapies is an awesome couple and we need both.
I could very much relate to the neck wrenching and pummeling by chiropractors JJ. I used to put it down to being a necessity because I rode horses and it did relieve the pain for about a week and then I would have to go back again. I did this for years until I came across Universal Medicine and began to understand more about my body. Looking back I must have been very numb to continue on for so long but it was the only thing that gave me any pain relief (for a short while). I now know it was my bodies way of letting me know I should stop living the way I was, continually pushing my body to get things done. Now I very rarely get back pain and if I do, I know it is time to stop and look at what I am doing to cause the pain in the first place.
Gorgeous JJ, that you ‘now have Spinal Alignment Therapy with a Universal Medicine practitioner that is gentle and lovingly respects my body without all the harsher push, pull,’ I love the gentleness and respect and care of the body that the Universal Medicine healing modalities offer.
That’s awesome, and how great for your doctor to be visited by someone who actually is ‘well’ that would be refreshing for them I am sure. I have been inspired to also just go to the doctor for a check up as well 🙂
There is so much more to the superficial way we often go about life. I feel this is something we all know and express in little ways. I feel how amazing what Universal Medicine has to offer is, and for me too my life has never been the same since knowing Universal Medicine.
In my case it was a Chinese Medicine doctor, not a chiropractor that cracked my neck for the first time and don’t think I knew he was going to crack my neck but after the first time I remember bracing with fear from how shocking it felt while trying to relax for the next crack. Ariana, ‘assaulted’ describes just how I felt, and I was not presenting with a neck problem or even a tight neck. Thankfully I now turn to Western medicine empowered by Universal Medicine to take more responsibility for my medical treatment and I love the combination of conventional medicine with esoteric medicine for the integrity they both hold.
The answer to true healing definitely lays in a strong combination of Western and Esoteric Medicine. The fact that the true meaning of ‘esoteric medicine’ is not readily understood by the masses demonstrates a need for a period of adjustment in society to get to know the truth about ourselves and start to heal and discover a greater form of medicine that comes from deep within all.
In popular religions throughout history there is mention of a mysterious kingdom that lives inside us. Western and Universal Medicine in combination together can unlock this place and put an end to the mystery. The truth is we are all godly. Furthermore there is a way and a set of principles that can be lived by anyone that will actually restore our natural divinity and put us back in touch with the heaven we all come from. It has been termed the Way of the Livingness and it is in fact it is our birthright.
I too feel I am strongly supported by the mix of complementary therapies by Universal Medicine and Western medicine. I have always been amazed to see the degree of health care people will expect to be provided or have access to just to get ‘fixed’ so they can return to leading their same lives again. Imagine the drop in the cost of health care systems around the world if we all learned to take responsibility for our own health first and foremost. Not to mention the rise in a more compassionate caring amongst humanity!
Universal Medicine has provided me with the missing link, via it’s healing modalities, to living with real vitality and well-being. Nothing comes close to it in developing my awareness of being responsible for the life I lead and the body that is my vehicle in it. This is indeed the way forward for me.
Thank you for this blog JJ. I also had an incredible moment meeting Serge Benhayon. I felt truly connected with and from that moment on I have been a Student of Universal Medicine and a Student of my own Livingness. When I feel to I have treatments these will include Esoteric Healing, Chakra – Puncture, Connective Tissue Therapy and Esoteric Breast Massage. These modalities combined with Western Medicine are a match made in Heaven.
Having also experienced the wonders of Universal Medicine Therapies, but also having tried many other complementary therapies prior to that – reiki, body talk, kinesiology, homeopathy, spiritual healing – you name it, I tried it. But nothing has ever felt so true, healing and amazing as Chakra-Puncture, Connective Tissue Therapy and Esoteric Breast Massage.
Many of us who have had an Esoteric Healing session with Serge Benhayon or one of the many qualified practitioners will know that this is not in any way a hackneyed expression, that Esoteric Healing is a life changing experience. There is nothing else like it. I have been an Esoteric Healing practitioner at several spiritual festivals. I love seeing people sit up after only 15 minutes, their face soft and child like, their eyes shining again. One of my favourite moments was when a Reiki practitioner had a session. She sat up after her session and said, “That was nothing like Reiki”. She couldn’t believe how great she felt! It just goes to show that some things may ‘look’ similar but can feel completely different.
This is the way forward, the union of Western Medicine with healing and responsible lifestyle, where self-care and taking care of our health comes from us first and we seek medicine to support us with our wellbeing not fix us when we get sick without us addressing the why.
Thank you for what is shared. For many many years I discounted western medicine and all it had to offer. However after meeting Serge Benhayon and understanding it does have a place I now can’t imagine any other way than combining all that Universal Medicine and Western Medicine offer.
Thank you for sharing this JJ. I too love hearing people’s stories of how they were introduced to Universal Medicine. Everyone of these stories is profound in the many different ways that Universal Medicine and the healing modalities have transformed people’s lives and in many cases they are a testament to living miracles.
Yes JJ I agree wholeheartedly. Universal Medicine Therapies are a great compliment to any Medical treatment as your body’s health is testament to. The combination addresses the whole of the person, physically mentally, emotionally and in essence, and with the equal respect of Allopathic and Complimentary Medicine the true healing is then possible. We are so much more than our physical bodies so it makes sense that we take care of the whole of us.
I like the way you describe how ordinary it is for you to combine the Western and complementary medicine as presented by Universal Medicine JJ. And indeed it is so natural to have them both because together they carry the potential to bring true healing to humanity.
The combination of Western medicine and Universal Medicine is so natural, the responsibility we start to take with our body through the learning’s we glean from the workshops and presentations by Universal Medicine can only support the body to let go of ill ways of being. As the body requires Western Medicine both the body and the service get a blessing. The service gets to deal with a body that is taking care of itself and the body gets to pass through the service knowing that this is part of the overall healing needed to evolve to the next level.
I also love reading people’s accounts of their experiences when they first come across Serge Benhayon and Universal medicine. I have learnt two new things reading your blog. The word/expression ‘hackneyed’! and having an annual check up with the doctor, we don’t have that in the UK, but only book appointments when we are ill, it’s a good idea … I am going to look into it more : )
Great point, Vicky. Why is it we link a doctor visit with ill-health as opposed to health management? I reckon it has something to do with levels of responsibility. If we take responsibility for our health, we’re more likely to be pro-active about maintenance. Regular check-ups are a part of that maintenance, merely the body equivalent of a car MOT.
Thanks JJ for sharing this and I recall my surgeon saying to me to “keep doing what I am doing” as he never had seen a patient so content about having major surgery. That was 2008 and thanks to Serge Benhayon I am on track in my life which is take deep care of myself, keeping things simple and staying open to everyone. A great recipe for a truly great life.
Like you JJ I really enjoy reading about how peoples lives have changed since they came across this ordinary man called Serge Benhayon who is simply extraordinary.
Great stuff JJ, The transformations I have seen, including myself, from people living the teachings of Universal Medicine are astounding. Yep we do look younger, fitter and more vital.
JJ, you can’t get anymore clearer than that, having your doctor confirm that what ever you are choosing is working and that you are looking younger and healthier ever time you see them. What I have noticed with most students that attend workshops and courses by Serge Benhayon, is this is exactly the case… I don’t know of any other practice or way of living that is showing this.
The Spinal Alignment Therapy is a you say a very gentle and exquisite technique. I have visited the chiropractor in the past and it always felt weird that so much force was needed to put something in place and that it would be healing for the body.
I know what you mean Annelies, I visited an osteopath in the past and looking back I was feeling terrified that he was going to crack my neck with the techniques.
Thank you for sharing JJ, and so simply – your experience of the benefits of meeting Serge Benhayon, how it has changed your life and expressing how gentle the Spinal Alignment Therapy is.
Thanks JJ what you have presented here is real hard evidence of the benefits to health and wellbeing by combining complementary health in the form of Universal Medicine and conventional medicine. Your GP has seen and acknowledged that evidence with his own eyes.
Thank you Andrew – I agree JJ has presented real hard evidence and I too can say I am another anecdotal solid piece of evidence that having had major surgery I found the missing piece through the teachings of Serge Benhayon and the Universal Medicine modalities which has been simply life changing.
I am 4 dress sizes smaller and now at my natural weight, deeply content, looking and feeling younger with vitality that can be seen through my eyes.
Thank you Serge Benhayon for the ground breaking work that you are bringing to this world at a much needed time.
So true Andrew, this is hard evidence. And the evidence is becoming more and more apparent – listen to all the amazing turnarounds that so many people are experiencing health-wise.
I agree too, the whole idea of clicking someone’s bones into place just seems and feels too mechanical to really respect the incredible bodies we all have.
My health was in a bad way when I first found Universal Medicine and I had lost trust in conventional medicine and was branching out into spiritual modalities which were mostly ineffectual and costly. These days my health has improved 10 fold and I now have a different relationship with my GP – one where we work together and not me expecting him to fix me every time something goes wrong.
A great testament to combining western medicine and universal medicine, thanks for sharing this JJ.
What an awesome recommendation. I loved the simplicity with which you recognised that there was more and that Universal Medicine was in no way in opposition to more mainstream modalities. Certainly, there are gentler ways as your example with the chiropractor shows. I liked it when you said that there is so much more to life and Serge Benhayon does, I feel, present this with such humour, grace and indeed, Love. He is making a world of difference to our understanding that complementary medicine and orthodox/mainstream medicine can go hand in hand.
Thank you for sharing JJ, I very much relate to what you said: “I recognised on a very deep level there was more to life than the superficial way we humans go about things.” For most of my life, at least consciously in my teenage years, I knew there was more to live than what I was being shown as I felt ‘what’s the point, there has to be more, a greater purpose to this all.’ It was then, after getting lost and caught up in it for a while, that I met Serge Benhayon aged 19.
My health was not in a great state and I knew whilst doctors were great at helping treat people, once they have gotten to a certain measurable level of diseased state, there was a limited amount of support available that they could offer – so I was trying alternative medicine, which was not really helping either.
Serge Benhayon’s common sense approach to health and healing is the only form of healing I have come across that has actually empowered me to take responsibility for my choices and my actions, the practitioners have helped facilitate the healing but I have been the one actually responsible for my own healing.
Since meeting Serge, whilst I have wavered and veered off track at times, not wanting to take responsibility for my choices or expose some of the hurts I have been carrying, I have always had the marker of truth in my body showing me how I can be living, and that there is indeed more to life.
After nearly seven years of living with consistent visits and operations and investigations with the medical profession, something I rarely did before I really needed to, and at the same time becoming a student of Universal Medicine, I find that I am the only person in a ward who does not take medication, and recently the Consultant told me I am really healthy. And I know that, I feel really well and more vital than I ever did in my life before, despite the symptoms they are investigating. Both support me, but I know it is the Energetic Medicine that brings me the vital ingredient for healing, and that complements the expertise and skill of allopathic medicine.
Yes, I went to a chiropractor for neck pain one time. The violence that she applied to my neck made the issue much worse and she said it would as well! She advised me to put an ice pack on my neck twice a day for a week after each treatment. One treatment was all I was willing to endure.
Well that is an article in itself Doug, it is very important that we talk about our own experiences. I too have had a similar experience which I responded in the same way, which for me at the time was the only way to respond. I feel now that I would actually let them know how the treatment truly felt instead of keeping it to myself.
Hi JJ, thank you for writing this article. I love how impressed and encouraging your doctor was.
Its great to know the support of Western Medicine is there and also great to take responsibility for looking after my own health and making choices that support my body being well. I reckon that is a great combination.
Great sharing JJ. I had not been to a doctor for years, the place was always full of sick people and did not wish to catch something from them. Before I met Serge Benhayon my body was a temple…like the tower of babble. It has been 9 years since meeting Serge and recently I had a full 4 hour medical. Being over 60 they were amazed I was not on ANY drugs and they told me to carry on doing what I was doing.
What an amazing confirmation from the doctor, and testament to the work of Universal Medicine in combination with western medicine. Thank you JJ.
Yes Julie there are many others who can vouch for the same testament from their doctors on the support provided with Western Medicine and Esoteric Modalities that help heal the body and bring back vitality.
A great sharing here and I have to confirm that Universal Medicine and all their modalities are the way to truly heal. Having practised other forms of healing in the past and becoming very ill during, it is clear to me that we need to be aware that we can not trust something just because it is called healing. You must first know what you are truly working with and this will always come back to energy first as Albert Einstein brought to our attention so long ago.
Universal Medicine I trust with my life and therefore do not need to look any further in way of truly healing my body and bodies of others.Their teachings are like no other and yet so simple.
Agreed, Ariana – I have NEVER experienced a Universal Medicine modality that has ever left me feeling assaulted or abused.
I agree as well Cheryl, and Ariana, never has a ‘Universal Medicine modality that has ever left me feeling assaulted or abused’, which is not what I can say for many other modalities including western medicine!
Thank you for sharing your experience, I had a similar experience visiting a chiropractor who gave me unlimited sessions at a very good price, the third time I went there felt too painful and I never went back. This was a time I was introduced to a Universal Medicine Practitioner and decided to sign up for a detox after a few sessions.
I can relate to your experience of first meeting Serge Benhayon and the amazing support of both Esoteric Medicine and Western Medicine. They deeply compliment and support each other. Thanks for sharing. I love how your Doctor confirmed your choices and told you to continue. So often you hear doctors having to tell people to stop doing things – not support them to continue.
Beautiful, it’s so true. Each discipline, orthodox Medicine and Universal Medicine, superbly compliments the other. I never used to go near a Doctor’s surgery, as from a young age I realised I was expecting them to give me all the answers to my woes, which of course they can’t because they are not leading my life. Since meeting Universal Medicine I now truly look after my body and go to the doctor’s when I need support to help me understand what is happening to my body, so that I can adjust how I look after it. I am very appreciative of the service I receive from both disciplines. What is so great is that my doctor also told me to carry on doing what I’m doing, as it seems to be working!
“He has told me to keep doing whatever I’m doing, as he has never seen me looking so well and reckons I’m looking younger each time he sees me”, is also such confirmation that taking responsibility for ourselves brings true change. When we look to others to resolve our problems they can never answer them as it is us who have the answers as it is our problem not theirs, they can only advise.
Awesome JJ, I also loved reading your account.
Absolutely JJ!
