How to let your body self-heal?

We human beings generally treat our bodies as well-oiled machines. Exploit it to the core without giving much chance to self-analyzing or knowing what your body is through.Once the body is broken-down, either be a small flu or a more significant health concern – the first step is run to a medic, similar to how we take broken-down automobiles. Although that is the right step in case you are confused about the sudden changes, it is well-advised by any medical practitioner to take some time and let the body self-heal. So, how does this process of self-healing or auto cure happen?

Our bodies naturally comprise self-repair mechanisms that kill cancer cells every day, fight infectious agents, repair and restore broken proteins, naturally fight the aging process, and many more without our knowledge.

Did you know that our autonomic nervous system comprises two vital operating systems that produce the body’s stress responses “fight or flight”?

The parasympathetic nervous system, which makes relaxation response in the body called “rest and digest.” This is how the body, when in any stress condition or any state of pain, automatically reacts and puts the body in equilibrium. But one must remember that the body’s repair mechanisms will be fully functional only when the nervous system is in a relaxation response.

Now that we are aware that before seeking medical help, our body is helping us giving ample time to heal and get better with any form of illness – then what exactly are we doing wrong to maintain that body equilibrium.

What should be the right way to keep this functionality and auto-care of the body always in the “On” mode?

• Proper sleep and rest:

According to a recent study, most of the world population does not maintain a healthy sleep pattern. That is, an average person requires an optimal amount of eight hours of daily sleep. Whereas a child needs 11-12 hours. Because of the juggling that we do throughout the day, we ignore the central aspect of maintaining healthy habits like have a good sleep and maintaining mental or emotional health. The body works hard to repair and regenerate itself, and this majorly happens when one is sleeping. This when the body uses minimal energy, and this when the body can restore and start its healing process. If you compromise on the sleep, then you are weakening your immune system. Another misconception carried is energizing yourself with caffeine drinks or other supplements, but these all wouldn’t help the body restore. It can do its best only when you are sleeping.

• Diet:

A good diet is another way of keeping your immune system healthy and ready for auto cure. Our body’s self-healing properties become powerful when you include a nutrient-rich diet in your routine and avoid processed foods, artificial food additives, preservatives, etc. A rich, healthy diet comprises fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, nuts, seeds, etc. apart from that, consuming organic food should be preferred.

• Exercise:

Another way of letting your body auto-cure is by giving it a little exercise. Being sedentary has never helped. It created more harm than one can imagine. If recharging and restoring the body is your ultimate plan, then exercise, let the body oxygenate, and purify independently.

For the lesser prescriptions and to be on the natural way of healing, the best way is to give your body to auto cure naturally.
