Nature makes no mistakes. God does not play dice! Instead, every symptom is your body's appropriate response to traumatic stress, according to five natural laws of healing discovered by cancer doctor, Dr. R.G. Hamer in the early 1980's. When you know the real cause of your symptom, you've got the power to resolve it at its source. The Mind Over Symptom Podcast with Lishui Springford shows you the science of the "mind-body connection." Listen weekly to uncover the real reason - and maybe even the cure? - for every symptom from AIDS to Alzheimer's, from bipolar disorder to bulimia, and from the common cold to cancer.

    Wake Up Call: Why Your Adrenals Are Burnt Out (and Begging for Help)

    Wake up: "adrenal burnout" isn't a simple deficiency problem — it's a tangled set of special biological programs that can be so messy, confusing, and chronic that they turn you into a blob. In this episode, I break down the two adrenal programs (adrenal medulla vs. adrenal cortex), the related but very different conflict dynamics behind each one, and why the usual "find the stressor out there and fix it" approach is the absolute opposite of what you need to do to solve this. Then I share the surprisingly simple solution I've learned the hard way: a one-level-up move that wakes you up to the real biological conflicts in real time — and starts letting you finally unwind the entire adrenal loop.

  2. Mind Over Anxiety and Phobias

    Mind Over Anxiety and Phobias

    Anxiety isn't "just in your head." In this episode, I explain anxiety (in Germanic Healing Knowledge / German New Medicine) as a constellation of frontal fear conflicts: powerlessness (helpless, "someone needs to do something"), and moving into danger (something coming at you, or you rushing toward something—sometimes as simple as an upcoming event on your calendar). When this constellation is intense, it can drive anxiety attacks. If it combines with a fear-from-behind, that triggers a panic attack. Phobias result from "tracks," when you have an anxiety or panic attack, and your brain stores environmental details as a powerful "alarm track" so that when you're noticing a similar future situation, your system launches same response. You'll hear how this special biological program is connected with the frontal relays (above your eyes), and why racing thoughts and overanalysis aren't the cause of anxiety—they are the anxiety: a biological strategy meant to make you smarter in the face of perceived threat. Then we go to the practical pivot: resolving anxiety by taking charge consciously—reconnecting with your essential self and asking: "What do I care very much about and don't want to lose?" From there, you can flip the "what if something bad happens" loop into the imaginative question: "What if something good happens?"

  3. 15 The Upside of Being a Medical Heretic

    15 The Upside of Being a Medical Heretic

    Our modern "religion" is determinism: the belief that your symptoms, your emotions, and even your aging are caused by forces outside your control. Whether that force is germs, genes, bad luck, stress, trauma, or "the economy," the effect is the same: you become a passive victim of your body. In this episode, I make the case that determinism is the hidden belief that keeps people sick—even in alternative health, and even among students of the Five Biological Laws. A biological conflict isn't "harm" that happens to you. It's something your psyche does for a reason. When you stop treating conflict like an external threat, you reclaim the steering wheel. The antidote to determinism is what I call deliberate selfish self-development: not indulgence, not antisocial self-centredness, but the healthy, life-directed selfishness that restores energy, direction, gratitude, and forward motion—so your biology can move with you instead of against you.

    13 "Proof" of the Natural Laws of Healing

    "Incurable Symptoms" Those of us who care about health are pretty good at handling an occasional sniffle or muscle spasm or other temporary illness. But what about those symptoms that we get that we never find out the cause of …or cure for. We go from one specialist to another, we try various "out of the box" alternative health solutions. But for too many of us, too often, and even too soon …we begin to accept that the symptom is just part of how our life is going to be from now on. The reason we give up on overcoming illnesses and instead just start living with the symptom permanently is that modern medicine today rests on a set of "proven facts." Scientifically-proven facts like the Germ Theory of Disease, or the concept of the so-called "selfish gene." Why go looking for a cure for MS when it's a medical "fact" that this condition is incurable? I'll tell you why. Because it's NOT a proven fact. There's no such thing as a proven fact! (Scientific or otherwise) But not understanding this, conventional medical approaches to diagnosis and care make 5 terrible mistakes: Assuming that if the cause isn't removable, the patient must switch her goal to "coping." The conventional approach is to give up on the goal of healing. Assuming that the health "condition" is a thing. Once it afflicts you, the treatment goal is to last as long as you can with this condition. Conventional care will have you increase treatment and decrease other activities in life. Assuming that our symptoms arise from strictly physical factors, such as anatomical defects including brain chemistry defects, which combine in a perfect storm with outside triggers. Conventional medicine says this is random, now that body part is damaged. Bad luck. Assuming that, since the environment is a "cause" or "trigger" of the symptom, the only way to control the symptom is to avoid the environmental triggers. Again, the conventional approach recommends that we avoid life to avoid our symptom. Assuming that if a symptom doesn't respond to treatment, it's simply an incurable condition and that's just life. The conventional response is to point out small possibilities that might make your condition a little more bearable. These mistakes come from a false dogma. Escaping that dogma is a huge step in the direction of finding a true cure, no matter the symptom. Listen to Episode 13 of the Mind Over Symptom Podcast to find out how religious dogma has created a massive bias in health care today …and also how a new scientific discovery spreading around the world today can overthrow that dogma and help you achieve a "medical miracle" today.

    12 Do You Really Want to Heal?

    The Thing About Unsolvable Problems... Everyone, sooner or later, gets stuck with a chronic, repeating, or "incurable" health condition for which there is no known cure. (And incurable symptoms happen not just in our bodies but in other aspects of our lives as well) Underlying any condition that we believe we've "tried everything" to fix is not an incurable condition but another, deeper belief. That's a belief in the status quo. A belief that your outcome - your current state - is a result of statistics. A belief that you are a statistic. How can you know that this is the case? Because you and I live in a society that dismisses the outliers for being "abnormal" and irrelevant. Outliers like the 10% (or more) of lung cancer patients who survive and recover. The people with Down syndrome who have above-average IQ's. The women who have remained fertile into their 50's. These kinds of anomalies are thought to be the exceptions that "prove" the rules. You're not encouraged to try to be one of these (because that would be giving you false hope). So it's normal, when you want to make a change, to try all the standard approaches first. Not that it will lead to those amazing (but anomalous) results you really want ...but it's what everyone does. The Danger of the Easy-Button While we wait for the outside-in solution, we're not doing what we actually need to do to heal. We're too busy doing the "normal" things instead, and that's a big part of why the statistics are the way they are. Following the usual options, following the norm, puts our focus on trying to be normal, instead of on resolving the symptom at its source. While we wait for the outside-in solution, we decrease the likelihood of healing. Screw the Status Quo To truly heal, you have to learn a new skill, something that you currently are very bad at. Plus, there are obstacles in the way of you learning this new skill. But this new skill - a skill most people in your situation never even bother to look for because they're looking for the silver bullet instead - is how you will heal. Listen to Episode 12 of the Mind Over Symptom Podcast, "Do You Really Want to Heal?" to learn how to overcome the 3 obstacles preventing you from having the healing you desire.

    11 Mind Over Insomnia

    Getting the Sleep You Need Insomnia is when you can't fall asleep ("nighttime insomnia") or you can't stay asleep ("morning insomnia"). Acute insomnia is when you're having trouble sleeping due to a recent traumatic shock experience (stress). Chronic insomnia is when you have trouble sleeping more than twice a week for more than 3 months Insomnia isn't when you can't sleep because you keep getting woken up. It's when you can't sleep even if you get rid of all distractions, like light, noise, stimulants and sedatives, heavy meals, uncomfortable bed, poor routine/schedule/habits, discomfort from pain or restless leg syndrome or apnea, and all the other things we blame for our sleeplessness. So insomnia is when you can't fall asleep or stay asleep during the time when you should be sleeping. The result of not getting the sleep you need is fatigue, low energy, difficulty concentrating, mood disturbances, and decreased performance in work or at school. You might start to feel anxiousness, dread, or panic at just the prospect of not sleeping. Your anxiety and insomnia can feed each other and become a cycle as you lay awake at night freaking out about how little sleep you're getting and how tired you're going to be at your important event tomorrow. Not getting the sleep you need will produce physical health problems within days. Psychologically, you can last up to a week without sleep ...but then you're going to have a complete mental breakdown. Why Conventional and Most Alternative Health Approaches Don't Work The current health paradigm doesn't understand how sleep works. Sleep isn't the absence of wakefulness, and wakefulness isn't the absence of sleep. Nor are wakefulness and sleep a matter of turning your brain on or off. Sleep is a complex process of resolving and healing the stresses you experienced during the waking part of your day. Insomnia occurs when you're working through a big traumatic stress experience. It also occurs when you're recovering and repairing your body after you've worked through a big traumatic stress experience. These are emergency biological response mechanisms, and trying to interfere with them can easily make insomnia worse. We live in a time dominated by a mechanistic understanding of the natural world. So the research and treatment remain focused on trying to turn your brain on and off according to a "normal" schedule, regardless of your current biological needs. Medications for insomnia try to disrupt brain chemicals and turn your brain off, in the belief that sleep is the absence of wakefulness. Some newer medical approaches try to disrupt your sleep urges during the day in the belief that being awake is the absence of sleepiness. Either way, these kinds of brain-chemistry-disrupting treatments can be helpful if you're suffering acute insomnia due to a recent traumatic stress ...but they should never be used for chronic insomnia because they are addictive, have unhealthy side effects, and it's difficult to come off these meds. Is There Any True Cure? The best treatments for insomnia focus on lifestyle changes, self-discipline, and even cognitive behavioural therapy. However, these treatments don't work by forcing your body into a "normal" rhythm. In fact, trying to force yourself to be normal is actually the CAUSE of insomnia! The real reason that conventional and most alternative treatments for insomnia "work" - if they work - is because they can give you a burst of self-confidence that empowers you to take control of your time for your own personal, selfish reasons ...instead of trying to be normal. Listen to "Mind Over Insomnia: Stop Counting Sheep and Get the Z's You Need" to discover how to build a schedule around YOUR "normal sleep system," so you can feel great and love your life.

    10 The Life-Saving Difference Between Treatment and Healing

    Modern medicine is absolutely brilliant at saving your life when you've got a gross anatomical problem, like injury, poisoning, or malnutrition. Or in the healing phase and especially the healing crisis after you resolve a major biological conflict. But conventional and even most alternative treatment regimens do not resolve symptoms for organically-generating diseases that aren't a result of injury, poisoning, or malnutrition. Diseases like cancer, heart disease, diabetes, AIDS, stroke …or even the common cold. As a result, organically-generating symptoms are almost always incurable. At least with conventional treatment. But we're very attached to our treatments. We're so attached to the idea of "fighting" the symptom that we actually try even harder …but doing the wrong thing. The reason why this philosophy of treating symptoms does not cure our illnesses is that organically-generating symptoms are a result of a traumatic stress experience. The symptom is your body's attempt to resolve that traumatic stress experience. To make you whole again. The word "heal" means "to make whole." Your body is constantly striving to do this. The symptoms are your body's emergency response mechanism, your body's way of helping you to heal the trauma. Your symptoms are your body's attempt to heal. But treatment seeks to defend against, resist, or outright battle those symptoms. Sometimes this "fight" helps people to focus on and resolve the original stress that the symptoms are trying to heal. If it doesn't, though, the result of treatment can be more stress, more trauma, and more symptoms. Listen to Episode 10 of the Mind Over Symptom Podcast to find out how to heal your symptoms at the source and use treatment to help that process.
