Every healing tradition should have a philosophy and this is unfortunately missing in the matter science model This is one of the major reasons why our current medical system has run a wayward course It also explains why the energy science medical healing discipline has been around for 5,000 yearsThe body has a purpose and that’s to be healthy When we become imbalanced with a dis-ease such as the IC bladder pain syndrome(interstitial cystitis, vulvodynia, chronic prostatitis, IBS, GERD, and fibromyalgia), in order for us to heal requires that we regain balance and harmony in the physiology In that very act of regaining balance we attain not only health but it is an act of self love
But how does a healing discipline incorporate love in its tradition?

Would we think it unusual that someone involved in a severe car accident would walk out of the ICU in a couple of days looking well? In the same way would we think it ususual that someone with chronic disease would clear their symptoms in a couple of months?
In the IC bladder pain syndrome(interstitial cystitis, vulvodynia, chronic prostatitis, IBS, GERD, and fibromyalgia) illustrates various energetic imbalances in the energy mindbody while the matter science views the components of the syndrome as disease labels such as vulvodynia etc When various energetic science therapies are used healing is elicited because therapies help correct the imbalance of qualities For example, the qualities of hot and mobile over time get cleared from the body with therapies
It literally takes years to cultivate these imbalances due to unconscious lifestyle choices Energy science work is not like taking an antibiotic for a few days and everything is better Wish it were that simple in the world of imbalances But the question often arises as to how long do I have to do this work tp see benefits?
Since all disease begins in the gastrointestinal tract(GIT) except for trauma nutrition that supports the energy constitutional makeup becomes foundational therapy for helping support a return to qualitative balance and eliminates imbalancing qualities in the GIT For example if a VP has a diet rich in nightshades(tomato, eggplant, peppers) simply removing those from the diet can be an important step toward bringing balance
Observing the removal of incompatible food combinations is another foundational therapeutic step to aid the GIT to correct the imbalances of the hot and mobile qualities of the syndrome
Therapies that support improving agni(digestive power) also do this rebalancing because removing ama improves the rebalancing effort
But how long does it take for rebalancing? Foods are instantaneous in terms of their effects in the GIT they have the most immediate impact on symptoms and within 7-10 days one can experience shifts in symptoms But the time for these foundational therapies to do their magic is dependent upon how long the GIT has been imbalanced The estimate is 2mo for every year of symptoms
There are clinical situations where the imbalance that was created is beyond simple nutritional work In this setting there are more advanced therapies that are required in order to achieve the clearing of the qualitative imbalances developed Typically the symptoms have gone beyond IC and have other aspects of the syndrome such as vulvodynia or fibromyalgia
Again these advanced therapies such as herbal formulas, basti management, and detoxification procedures are part of getting better but again require time Oddly when the energy mindbody reaches this advanced stage of dis-ease the length of time remains the same…2mo for every year of symptoms, that is, if you’ve been having problems for 10 years then it will take one year and 4 months to progress to a symptom free state
So we can see that when we do energy science work to heal the IC syndrome it requires dedicated work on our part to maintain lifestyle changes that support the clearance of the imbalances created Unfortunately in life there is no quick fix I think we all intuitively know that but we hope against hope that it’s not true
Another interference to doing this work is lack of clarity as to the decision making about whether this is an approach worth trying Only you can decide whether the journey is worthwhile

The energy science of Ayurveda states that all that we observe including our own mindbodies are made of vibrational frequencies and from unified field theory this is how contemporary physics sees our reality There are 10 pairs of these frequencies called qualities and when they become increased in the physiology
For example the hot and mobile qualities become increased in the GIT(gastrointestinal tract) and may lead to the IC bladder pain syndrome(interstitial cystitis, vulvodynia, chronic prostatitis, IBS, GERD, and fibromyalgia) if the conditions are right The quality of hot produce the burning sensations in the bladder on voiding, in the vagina and perineum, and prostate The mobile quality helps disseminate the hot quality and pain but also is responsible for urinary frequency
As we discussed everything is made up of these qualities They exist in us as well as outside us So the hot quality in our environment can increase the hot quality in us
Summer time is a season when people lower their body temperature by sweating and drinking more This causes agni to go down and the chances for ama to increase We should be appropriate about fluid intake(40ozK, 60ozP, 70ozV)
If you have the IC bladder syndrome the summer time can be a risky time And from this perspective it’s not the overheating type of feeling that can be problematic but just the exposure to the heat that can lead to problems particularly if the IC syndrome is present But the good news is that the energy science gives you good antidotes to keep cool
Stay cool and don’t overheat Avoid staying out in the hot sun
The energy of the sun is hot but the energy of the moon is cooling so moon bathing is something that can be done when it’s been a particularly hot day in order to bleed off some of the hot quality
Use of cooling foods such as cucumber or cucumber milk
Use coconut Think tropical because Nature provides us foods that are valuable in hot climates
Avoid deep fried fatty foods due to the hot quality
Milk with cardamom and fresh ginger(milk is cooling like the moon’s energy)
Herbs to use with no ama: amalaki, brahmi, jatamamsi, shankapushpi, shatavari, chitrak, black pepper
Herbs to use if ama is present: mahasudharsan, neem, kutki, guduchi, kama dudha, pravel panchamrit
Each of these herb groups can be used with aloe vera gel which is also cooling and will direct the herbs to specific locations in the body

It’s estimated that 60-70% of people with the interstitial cystitis will resolve the problem spontaneously The percentage probably goes higher for those who do simple nutritional work as explained at icdiet.com and foodsheal.com
So we are left with about 20% of the IC population who will go on to chronic disease who will display more than one of the disease labels of the IC bladder pain syndrome(interstitial cystitis, vulvodynia, chronic prostatitis, IBS, GERD, and fibromyalgia) This 20% represents the true chronic disease population who will need more change than just simple nutritional advice
Acute disease is short lived and the solutions are straight forward But chronic disease management requires continuous ongoing treatment therapies which become a problem for us living in a Vata vitiated society who want our solutions yesterday
From an energy science point of view treatment guidelines revolve around those which center on lifestyle behavior patterns(LBP) which are the most difficult for us as humans to deal with From an epigenetic view the reason for this is actually based on methylation groups that prevent us from changing easily This methylation obstructs us from changing our LBP Essentially unhealthy LBP are obstacles to health
Holocaust survivors have high levels of methylation and leave them mentally “scarred” Unfortunately this methylated scarring becomes heritable whatever the traumatic event may be But it brings up questions for us such as “Is agni or eating patterns heritable?”
The good news for us who are challenged by LBP’s that are not supportive for healing IC is remember that is takes just 8 weeks to reverse patterns not supportive of moving in the right direction That’s right, 8 weeks to reverse those pesky methylation patterns that prevent us from changing to healthy LBP’s
Ayurveda, the energy science of healing, gives us guidelines for healthy living Say we get up at 9am and go to bed at midnight Ayurveda would say that it would be better to go to bed early and get up earlier How much volume to drink during the day? How much to eat at the biggest meal of the day? What are the best foods to bring about physiologic balance?
The LBP help us live our lives in balance because that promotes health and heals chronic disease The above questions seem like they would have nothing to do with the IC bladder pain syndrome but from an energy science point of view they are all suggestions to bring about physiologic balance that will produce a foundation by which other therapies will build on the foundation of LBP
Yes, it’s possible to change those methylation groups leading to unsuccessful unhealty patterns or LBP The reason that they work is that these activities produce mental clarity Any technique as a matter of fact that induces more mental clarity will decrease “bad” methylation which can induce unfavorable LBP
1 Meditation is becoming a well known technique to quiet the mind An active mind clouds our soul’s intelligence leading to poor decision making that leads to repetitive destructive LBP
2 Mantra work is the repetition of sounds that evoke DNA demethylation Essentially the sounds said mentally to yourself bump off these unwanted methylated groups to bring about change in any LBP
3 Breath retention is a form of meditation but has the added advantage of improving agni and promoting love, compassion, and peace
4 Herbs can change over time behavior patterns because herbs work at the level of mind or DNA
5 Marma therapy directly works at the level of mind so unwanted patterns slip away and one is consciously directed in different directions
