Never too Late to Become Regular


No, it is never too late to become regular, to have ease in all our bodily functions. The following is a short testimony from a friend in his eighth decade on Planet Earth. His reference to an "Affirmation of Hay" means the great work of Louise Hay. Her book, Heal Your Body, A to Z, is an excellent primer for becoming acquainted with the mind-body connection.

"I have been suffering from constipation for the last ten years. I tried Natureopathy,Homeopathy and Auyarveda, without results. I didn't try Alleopathy as I was warned the medication is addictive.

Last year I mentioned my problem to Bethany and she put me on to "affirmation of Hay" It worked but not to my satisfaction. I have a tendency to hoard. Bethany said my thinking has influenced my body to hoard food and not let go of the waste. She suggested that I give away my old clothes and other things I am holding on to. I did that--Lo! my bowels have become regular. "

My friend is being modest. He has also continued to increase his spirit of giving; now planning on paying the school fees for two children, children who are not related to him by blood. Hoorah for generosity, for regularly letting go of resources...an activity that encourages letting go by the bowels!
