Hello, I hope this message finds you all well. I want to talk a little bit about a question that was poised to me today in class. The question was: “how do you deal with pain, especially if it’s felt every day.” I gave a few answers to this as they came-to me, however I would like to address the subject a little bit more deeply now. In our modern lives, we are put under tremendous toxic strain, not just on our vital organs and glands, but also on the bigger organs, the stomach, the intestinal tract, the lungs, our spine, and in fact, basically our whole body not to mention our psyche. Our stomachs are often perpetually stuffed with foods that are often denatured and are taken in horrible combinations, and in fact, often incompatible combinations. The next tubes in line are, of course, the small intestine and the large intestine, which are also often packed with the same. Our organs like the liver are swollen and strained with their effort to try to break down massive amounts of foods that are often as I say incompatible. Imagine our organs having to deal with massive intakes of animal, protein, fats, and then of course, maybe drugs and poisons that we are exposed to in our daily lives. Our pancreas balloons beyond its normal size, mainly due to the fact that it’s constantly demanded of for digestive enzymes that are often overloaded into the small intestine. Even at our jobs we can be exposed to fumes, chemicals, aerosols, dusts, noise etc. Really this is just superficially, not mentioning how these things are taken in voluntarily but also how we take in poisons orally by eating fast foods or grabbing a soda conviently from the vending machine. Our small intestine, but especially the large intestine gets lined with layer upon layer of glue like substance that contains poisons, and Auto intoxicates the bloodstream. Honestly, in many ways, a self fulfilling prophecy of inhabitable health. All of this puts tremendous load on our bodies. Because the intake of foods are somewhat iffy and not always healthy or compatable our organs are called to process enzyme-less foods, that is, of course often why they expand themselves working that much harder to process what we are stuffing into them and exposing them to.

Sensei Jay is still in Japan, so enjoy this epic recording from our retreat in Fairmont, BC. And, special treat - I pulled out the big guns for this session and filmed it with our Hollywood camera. Enjoy! :)

Sensei Jay on a plane to Japan today, so this session has been pre-recorded. Enjoy!
