Esoteric Women’s Health: What does it mean to be a Woman?

I used to think being a woman was about looking beautiful, having my nails painted and pampering myself. And that nurturing myself was having massages often and having a pedicure. I was always very focused on having a great body – muscular and lean and I took pride in displaying that body that I had worked hard for to show to others how I was taking care of myself. I pretty much strutted it around.

I remember running my body into the ground in order to maintain this image I had painstakingly created for myself which included maximising a gym membership and taking yoga classes – all in the quest to be as beautiful as all of the women I saw on magazine covers.

I felt the pressure to be perfect, flawless, fit and pretty in order to have a happy life and the man of my dreams.  Continue reading “Esoteric Women’s Health: What does it mean to be a Woman?” →

A University Student’s Experience with Universal Medicine

by Ben P, Australia

I found out about Universal Medicine (UniMed) about 4 or 5 years ago when I was still going through university. At the time I was living the typical student life of drinking most nights of the week, eating junk food and staying up till 3am with occasional cram sessions in there so that I wouldn’t fail my classes. I thought I was having fun and doing what we were supposed to do as students but I was never really happy. As soon as the alcohol wore off, or the thrill of whatever escapade we’d been up to had died down, I was left feeling miserable and lacking any direction.

Universal Medicine: A Man’s Perspective

by Paul Moses

I was once asked: “Was there a time when you felt warm and yummy with a presence of stillness and the absence of anxiousness, seemingly not a care in the world, where every moment seemed magical? It might have been sitting on the beach as a young boy with friends – a joy to feel how lovely that moment is.”

How far are we from that loveliness that we need to numb ourselves from the very day we have lived? Remember when a day was so full of magic that at the end of that day there was no need to stay up later, as the day had a feeling of being complete. There was no way you wanted to numb yourself of such an amazing day and you looked so forward to closing your eyes and waking in that magic again. There was no need for coffee or any other reason to get through the day – you just wanted to be in the day. Tiredness was not present; vitality was in its place. There was an honesty in the fact that all we honestly had to do was to live in the true sense of the word. Continue reading “Universal Medicine: A Man’s Perspective” →

Universal Medicine – A student looks back…

by Barbara Horne

My Life before Universal Medicine?

Ever felt… “What’s the meaning of having this life anyway?”
OR even worse – thinking that you do know what it’s all about, and everything is still crap?
OR maybe you are like me and just didn’t want to know because that would mean a level of responsibility that we are just not ready for yet? That is, maybe my life was not so great because I was the one making it not so great?…

An Unparalleled Commitment to Truth

When I first attended a lecture given by Serge Benhayon in London 7 years ago, I sat there as a University educated, self-confessed logical thinker, sensibly questioning and intelligent person, who had been pursuing a lifelong interest in the improvement of people’s well-being through education, employment opportunities, along with emotional and physical healing practices. I had worked for public and private enterprise, for government, companies and for myself. I subsequently reacted to the limitations in conventional medicine by establishing a 13 year career in Shiatsu and healing practices steeped in Asian philosophy, Buddhism, Yoga and meditation, that encompassed training and practice in Australia, Japan and finally the UK.

Along the way I used my considerable drive and willpower on my body to explore a large number of the ‘alternative’ health practices on offer, so that by the time I sat at this lecture, I sat proudly with my toned personal trainer type body, fresh off my bicycle, feeling somewhat ‘holier than thou’ on my raw food diet and alienated stance against conventional medical practices and pharmaceuticals. I also sat there with more than a healthy scepticism, as I was acutely cautious of anyone masquerading as a teacher but who was in truth a hidden guru, for I had sat at the foot of such a one for 5 years in Japan and was not about to be fooled again.
