Recently I read a very interesting article on the importance of activities like silence, prayer, hugging. Part of John Douillard’s article “When cells lose their memory, cancer happens” is reproduced below.

“According to Ayurveda, the cause of all disease is based on a loss of cellular memory—called “smirti.” When cells lose their memory of how to function as part of a whole system and they start functioning in isolation from the whole, the cells in isolation soon lose their memory of how to function as a part of the whole.

Without the support of an active inter-cellular awareness and communication network, the isolated cells incur further damage. With cellular death looming, their drive for life (which happens even on a cellular level) motivates them to divide faster than the broken system can repair. In other words, the cells try to divide and reproduce faster to outpace certain death at the hands of a broken-down repair system due to isolation.

These cancer cells have lost not only their memory, but also their inner silence, awareness, and ability to heal. In a cell that is still functioning as a member of the whole, when they become damaged, instead of going rogue and reproducing excessively as cancer cells do, they commit apoptosis or a programmed cellular death.

Interestingly, it is only when a damaged cell loses 100 percent of its connection to the whole or becomes totally isolated that it becomes a cancer cell and starts dividing incessantly.

According to cancer research conducted by Dr. Zach Bush, once these cells are reunited with the whole, they initiate their programmed cell death and make way for new healthy cells to take their place.

The solution to keeping your cells from going rogue or becoming excessively damaged is to keep them in communication with each other and allow the body to maintain a functional awareness with the external environment. When trying to repair damaged cells, the key is community rather than isolation.

Damaged cells respond to tools that enhance awareness such as meditation, prayer, yoga, breathing, being in nature, love, touch, hugging, giving, kindness, acceptance, and being with family or in community. These cells also respond to the communication and awareness boost that comes from exercise, eating organic food, and a lifestyle in sync with the circadian rhythms.”

The eclipses and planets in September created a crazy month for most of us. Breathe a sigh of relief because the good news is that there will be changes again in planetary movements by 11 October and these are very auspicious.

Love and Light,
