Truth and Transcendence, brought to you by being Space with Catherine Llewellyn.

00:00:07.693 --> 00:00:26.152
Truth and Transcendence, episode 164, with special guest Clive DeKalb Now Clive.

00:00:26.152 --> 00:00:37.526
I don't know if you've heard of Clive, but he's actually a rock star in the natural health space, although Clive, as a true Brit, prefers to describe himself as a bloke who knows some stuff.

00:00:37.526 --> 00:00:53.814
So you can take that any way you like, but Clive's actually been beavering away for over 30 years in the natural health space helping thousands of clients transform their health, and not in a mainstream fashion.

00:00:53.814 --> 00:01:07.165
So he's a man of my own heart, because that's how I was brought up as well, and I think this is becoming more and more recognized now that actually maybe the body can heal itself and if we help it, maybe that's a good thing.

00:01:07.165 --> 00:01:20.644
So today we're going to be talking about natural health and also the power of the mind, which is another of my favorite topics and something that Clive has a very strong connection with.

00:01:21.506 --> 00:01:24.390
So I'm going to, right up front, tell you how to find Clive.

00:01:24.390 --> 00:01:42.552
The website is clivedecarlecom, c-l-i-v-e-d-e-c-a-r-l-ecom, and he's also got a secret health club, which is, if you want to find out all sorts of secrets about natural health that Clive is not allowed to publish in the public domain.

00:01:42.552 --> 00:01:44.980
You can join his secret health club, which is not allowed to publish in the public domain.

00:01:44.980 --> 00:01:58.442
You can join his secret health club, which is secrethealthclubcom, and I personally swear by his magnesium blend, his fulvic minerals and his iodine Highly recommended.

00:01:58.442 --> 00:02:01.551
So, clive, thank you so much for coming on the show.

00:02:02.459 --> 00:02:03.623
Well, thank you very much for inviting me, catherine.

00:02:03.623 --> 00:02:03.992
Thank you, thank you so much for coming on the show.

00:02:03.992 --> 00:02:04.597
Well, thank you very much for inviting me, catherine.

00:02:05.841 --> 00:02:06.504
Thank you.

00:02:06.504 --> 00:02:17.138
I've seen you in all sorts of videos and conversations all over the place telling people these marvelous things about how their body can heal itself with the right kind of assistance.

00:02:17.138 --> 00:02:24.469
But I didn't know until we spoke last time in the prequel about your connection with the power of the mind.

00:02:24.469 --> 00:02:30.086
So I'd love to ask you about that to begin with.

00:02:30.086 --> 00:02:35.931
So is this something you've kind of been connected to for a long time, or is it something that's more recent for you?

00:02:35.931 --> 00:02:40.348
I mean, what was your sort of earliest engagement with this idea of the power of the mind?

00:02:42.221 --> 00:02:48.502
Well, when I was about 10, I was invited to go fishing and it was in waters that were crystal clear.

00:02:48.543 --> 00:02:53.765
You could see the fish, you could see everything, and on top of that we had a bucket with a glass bottom which you could put in the water.

00:02:53.786 --> 00:03:17.981
And now everything was absolutely clear, like wearing a snorkel mask, and uh, we reached fishing and I didn't want to put the live maggot on the hook to start with and I was dreading taking the hook out of the fish's mouth if I actually caught one person I was with caught lots of fish, just one after another after another, and we could see that the fish were totally ignoring my bait and were just going to his.

00:03:17.981 --> 00:03:20.707
There's a bit of frenzy around here's nothing around mine.

00:03:20.707 --> 00:03:24.223
We swap fishing lines immediately.

00:03:24.223 --> 00:03:32.596
Well, in a few seconds the fish realized, hang on, something's changed and they go over to what was my line and go mental.

00:03:32.596 --> 00:03:34.200
So he caught a whole bundle of fish.

00:03:34.200 --> 00:03:52.719
I just caught sunstroke and I realized that, while I couldn't read the fish's mind, it was apparent to me that they knew I didn't want to catch them because I didn't want to hurt them, so they weren't giving themselves up to me gosh, and how old were you then when this happened?

00:03:55.764 --> 00:04:12.740
about 10, wow so I think, possibly the next thing that happened to me maybe was that, um, I suddenly am floating on the ceiling, all my cares and worries have disappeared and there's what appears to be my dead body lying in a very odd shape on the ground.

00:04:12.740 --> 00:04:25.790
So I experienced total release from all cares and worries and I realized that, uh, actually, if that was death, that it's fantastic and you'll still you.

00:04:25.790 --> 00:04:29.242
Uh, yes, you haven't got a body anymore, but that's irrelevant.

00:04:29.242 --> 00:04:42.670
So, um, over the years, you know I I took an antibiotic 40 years ago which left me with so bad, so appalling rheumatoid arthritis.

00:04:42.670 --> 00:04:47.081
I couldn't get dressed or walk and they shoved me in hospital for weeks.

00:04:47.081 --> 00:04:48.788
They tried to offer me drugs.

00:04:48.788 --> 00:04:54.891
I say I'm not low on drugs, it's not my problem and I worked out in hospital what was wrong with me.

00:04:54.891 --> 00:05:04.374
I'd, the antibiotic that I'd taken for something ridiculously trivial had knocked out my microbiome and I couldn't absorb food properly anymore.

00:05:04.374 --> 00:05:14.442
So I got wheeled out of the hospital, started taking vitamins and minerals and change my diet a little bit, and all the rheumatoid arthritis went away.

00:05:14.442 --> 00:05:17.187
So be careful of antibiotics.

00:05:17.187 --> 00:05:20.894
They're not as one might think anyway.

00:05:20.954 --> 00:05:24.793
So that put me on a path of having healed myself.

00:05:24.793 --> 00:05:32.630
I was interested in healing other people, so I started studying, uh and learning about natural medicine and.

00:05:32.630 --> 00:05:39.125
But the interesting part, I think, is a few years back I had one of my best results ever.

00:05:39.125 --> 00:05:41.269
Um, somebody came to me.

00:05:41.269 --> 00:05:46.295
They were in pain, they couldn't see very well and they had brain fog.

00:05:46.295 --> 00:05:51.512
Anyway, I wired them up to four devices that I was using at the time.

00:05:51.512 --> 00:05:57.452
At the end of an hour they were completely fixed pain gone, eyesight clear, brain clear.

00:05:57.452 --> 00:06:00.646
And I looked over and I'd forgotten to switch the machines on.

00:06:02.350 --> 00:06:03.173
Fascinating.

00:06:04.262 --> 00:06:04.865
Out of the mind.

00:06:09.240 --> 00:06:10.122
That's fascinating, isn't it?

00:06:10.122 --> 00:06:11.605
And presumably they thought the machines were on you both.

00:06:11.625 --> 00:06:16.185
Oh, absolutely, and I wasn't about to tell them they hadn't been no that probably would have undone it.

00:06:16.545 --> 00:06:32.992
But you know, prior to to that, you know, 20 odd years ago, um, if you'd asked me what do you do, I might said to you well, I use hypnosis as my primary tool and the use of words has been incredibly effective.

00:06:32.992 --> 00:06:40.564
And to give you an example, let's say I'm trying to get somebody out of pain With what I now know.

00:06:40.564 --> 00:06:43.372
I can usually get most people out of chronic pain in five minutes.

00:06:43.372 --> 00:06:44.545
It's not so hard.

00:06:44.545 --> 00:06:52.122
So what I do is I say how much pain you intense agony give it.

00:06:52.122 --> 00:06:53.084
Give us a number and they say whatever.

00:06:53.084 --> 00:07:03.793
One out of six out of ten they might say so after I've done a treatment with them, I won't say how's the pain now, for instance, I get them to look for something non-existent.

00:07:03.793 --> 00:07:05.035
I say has it gone?

00:07:05.035 --> 00:07:07.867
If you look for pain, you will find it.

00:07:07.867 --> 00:07:10.507
If you look for gone, there's nothing to find.

00:07:10.827 --> 00:07:11.550
Ah, interesting.

00:07:12.380 --> 00:07:14.500
So I always say has it gone Now?

00:07:14.500 --> 00:07:26.180
If they say, well, it's gone from 6 out of 10 to 3 out of 10, then I can say, well, look, we've only done a couple of minutes, that's fantastic, let's now get it to zero.

00:07:26.180 --> 00:07:33.473
So I'm constantly using the right wording to have to pre-predict the answer without saying you will.

00:07:33.473 --> 00:07:45.761
I'm using words like you, other people like you usually find, and then you can change your intonation when you're speaking to somebody to switch a normal sentence into a command.

00:07:45.761 --> 00:07:51.435
A lot of people like you often get better right away.

00:07:51.435 --> 00:07:53.923
Yeah, obviously, your command to get better right away.

00:07:53.923 --> 00:07:56.314
So I know I'm happy to use every trick in the book.

00:07:56.535 --> 00:08:07.168
I don't care what gets people well yes yes, if I can talk them well, well, that's great so you're sort of predisposing them to the to the good results, rather than predisposing them to the bad results.

00:08:08.071 --> 00:08:11.146
Well, exactly, I mean, what's the worst thing that can happen?

00:08:11.146 --> 00:08:12.151
Somebody goes to the doctor.

00:08:12.151 --> 00:08:14.071
The doctor says you've got three months left to live.

00:08:14.071 --> 00:08:14.836
And you believe it.

00:08:15.399 --> 00:08:15.519
Yeah.

00:08:15.660 --> 00:08:17.927
If you believe it, you're probably dying in three months' time.

00:08:17.927 --> 00:08:22.266
Yeah, you know, loads of people obviously have just rejected that whole notion.

00:08:22.266 --> 00:08:23.189
Don't be ridiculous.

00:08:23.189 --> 00:08:25.920
And, you know, haven't died on time.

00:08:25.920 --> 00:08:41.100
One of the reasons, by the way, that they can say so accurately, you've got six months left to live is that nobody on the drug I'm going to put you on has lived past six months you've got six months left to live and I'm going to make sure of it by giving you these pills.

00:08:42.283 --> 00:08:46.753
yeah, which is sad, we but it is sad, oh right.

00:08:46.753 --> 00:08:52.253
So I had no idea that you'd work in a kind of hypnotic way with people.

00:08:52.253 --> 00:08:56.539
You've got the perfect voice for it, clive, haven't you this?

00:08:56.620 --> 00:09:01.373
marvellous resonant voice, which is delightful.

00:09:01.373 --> 00:09:05.663
So what do you think?

00:09:05.663 --> 00:09:08.427
Which is delightful?

00:09:08.427 --> 00:09:18.110
We had this brief conversation when we were talking before this thing about how different people respond to the same situation.

00:09:18.110 --> 00:09:31.784
I've known a lot of people take antibiotics and suffer as a result and not become natural health experts, not realize their body could heal themselves.

00:09:31.784 --> 00:09:34.990
So what do you think it is about you?

00:09:34.990 --> 00:09:51.743
That kind of meant that you took that path instead of taking the what you might call the victim path in response to that situation what you might call the victim path.

00:09:51.783 --> 00:09:52.905
In response to that situation.

00:09:52.905 --> 00:09:54.730
Um, well, I mean years ago, 20 odd years ago, I was studying survivors.

00:09:54.730 --> 00:09:56.274
What was it that?

00:09:56.274 --> 00:10:10.880
For instance, let's say cancer or something what the survivors and there aren't that many of them long term I wanted to know what they'd done right, and I was expecting them to say things like well, it was a combination of vitamin c and vitamin d and magnesium or something.

00:10:10.880 --> 00:10:12.504
You know, that's what I was expecting.

00:10:12.504 --> 00:10:16.774
But literally nine out of ten uh, said the same thing.

00:10:16.774 --> 00:10:18.505
They said it was gratitude.

00:10:18.505 --> 00:10:20.472
I said what do you mean?

00:10:20.472 --> 00:10:23.903
And and they would say things like well, I hated it.

00:10:23.985 --> 00:10:28.870
When this illness, whatever it was, first happened, uh, it was a nightmare.

00:10:28.870 --> 00:10:32.522
This could even apply to a loss of a child or something equally terrible.

00:10:32.522 --> 00:10:34.946
Um, I hated it.

00:10:34.946 --> 00:10:37.951
I, you know, it was just awful, awful, awful.

00:10:37.951 --> 00:10:46.013
And then suddenly I realized that, uh, illness doesn't happen to you, it happens for you.

00:10:46.013 --> 00:10:48.105
The body never goes wrong.

00:10:48.105 --> 00:10:56.269
The body might adapt to being poisoned, it might adapt to being malnourished, but it's never going to let you down, it's just going to adapt.

00:10:57.581 --> 00:11:02.365
So if somebody gets some sort of illness, there is a reason for it.

00:11:02.365 --> 00:11:04.126
It could be that their diet has been rubbish.

00:11:04.126 --> 00:11:06.163
It could be that the water's not good.

00:11:06.163 --> 00:11:09.171
It could be they got raped as a child and never gone over it.

00:11:09.171 --> 00:11:11.482
It could be that they're married to the wrong person.

00:11:11.482 --> 00:11:14.729
It could be a whole host of different things.

00:11:14.729 --> 00:11:23.788
Um so uh, they got to the stage where, if you like, the trauma, for instance, had been released.

00:11:23.788 --> 00:11:33.684
They'd now changed or realized what they had to change in their life and actually become grateful to the illness because it woke them up.

00:11:33.684 --> 00:11:36.333
They realized it happened for me.

00:11:36.333 --> 00:11:37.317
It didn't happen to me.

00:11:37.317 --> 00:11:38.039
I'm not the victim.

00:11:38.039 --> 00:11:40.264
This was a wake-up call.

00:11:40.264 --> 00:11:43.572
If it's something serious, well it's a hell of a wake-up call.

00:11:43.572 --> 00:11:51.788
It means you've been getting things wrong for a long time eating, eating wrong foods for a long time, being in the wrong job, whatever it might be.

00:11:53.279 --> 00:11:54.120
That's really interesting.

00:11:54.162 --> 00:12:27.601
That just reminded me of a friend of mine who got some sort of horrible stomach cancer and he didn't realize he had the cancer until he'd had it for quite a long time, and so he was then dying and I used to go and visit him and he told me that he learned that one of the things that people who get cancer have in common this is what he was telling me was that they were not open to receiving love.

00:12:29.024 --> 00:12:39.371
They had a block on receiving love, and when he realized that he cracked open and started receiving love and he experienced so much love in that last period of his life.

00:12:39.371 --> 00:12:48.803
He still died, but he had a complete transformation of his experience of being human in that last period of his life.

00:12:48.803 --> 00:12:54.660
That really, really struck me when he told me, because he was a wreck physically at this point.

00:12:54.660 --> 00:13:14.591
He could barely move, he was in real, terrible pain, but he'd had this insight and it took the disease to get him to reach out and do the research because he thought there's something here I need to understand.

00:13:14.591 --> 00:13:18.573
I can't ignore it anymore.

00:13:18.573 --> 00:13:22.355
Does that resonate with what you were talking about?

00:13:22.395 --> 00:13:23.297
Well, very much so.

00:13:23.297 --> 00:13:40.989
I mean, you know, if there's a reason for everything, if everything happens for a reason, then surely if we get ill, the next steps should be to recognize the cause, remedy the situation, get better and teach others how to avoid it in the first place.

00:13:41.370 --> 00:13:41.571
Yes.

00:13:42.760 --> 00:13:44.287
So the second one was forgiveness.

00:13:44.287 --> 00:13:46.880
Obviously it in the first place.

00:13:46.880 --> 00:13:47.743
Yes, so the second one was forgiveness.

00:13:47.743 --> 00:13:53.163
Obviously, you know, after gratitude came forgiveness of the others and forgiveness of yourself, because at the end of the day, nobody's ever made a mistake.

00:13:53.163 --> 00:14:00.648
Right, it may seem like that in retrospect, but at the time, all the stupid things we've ever done, we thought it was going to be the right thing to do at the time.

00:14:00.648 --> 00:14:02.231
Yes, but stupid.

00:14:02.231 --> 00:14:03.705
So you never made a mistake made.

00:14:03.705 --> 00:14:11.389
You made some really stupid choices and people would be I made such a mistake, you didn't.

00:14:11.389 --> 00:14:16.243
You pressed the fun button and maybe you regretted it or whatever.

00:14:16.783 --> 00:14:18.126
Yes, yes.

00:14:18.126 --> 00:14:25.504
Or you didn't let yourself press the fun button because you thought you should do something else, and then you learned from it, Just equally yes.

00:14:25.504 --> 00:14:26.942
I'm going to take that on board.

00:14:26.942 --> 00:14:29.309
Clive, actually that sort of went in.

00:14:29.309 --> 00:14:34.991
When you said just then about self-forgiveness and not having made a mistake, something in my spirit just went.

00:14:34.991 --> 00:14:39.485
Oh really, that's really nice to hear.

00:14:39.485 --> 00:14:41.746
That is a beautiful message.

00:14:41.746 --> 00:14:43.229
Actually, I think a lot of people.

00:14:43.229 --> 00:15:05.899
If they just actually reflected on that message, I can see how that makes such a difference you.

00:15:05.919 --> 00:15:06.363
That was the old you.

00:15:06.363 --> 00:15:07.668
You can now allow yourself to say well, where should the past be?

00:15:07.668 --> 00:15:08.352
Is it right in front of my face?

00:15:08.352 --> 00:15:09.378
Am I thinking about the past all the time?

00:15:09.378 --> 00:15:39.706
The past should be behind you, right, and you can literally choose to put it behind you and be grateful to it, because the more mistakes you made, or the more bad choices you took, the better, because, I mean, you know, I got to stage at one point, having been very wealthy, to having nothing and having to start again, and at that point it was super useful because, although I didn't like it much, um, my ego got shredded in in, I think, a positive way.

00:15:39.706 --> 00:16:07.240
You know, uh and um, uh, yeah, if I haven't gone that far to the bottom, I don't think I'd be have been able to get where I am now, which is happy and content and and stuff yeah and being the better it could be do you think it changed your, uh, your, your sort of personal capacities or qualities, going through that experience?

00:16:08.705 --> 00:16:13.696
well, I lost a bit of ego, which was pretty valuable.

00:16:13.696 --> 00:16:16.763
But I've had lots of really interesting lessons in my life.

00:16:16.763 --> 00:16:24.666
I mean, when I was on my way down, I was sitting at home on the floor feeling so sorry for myself.

00:16:24.666 --> 00:16:27.672
I was really in the most miserable place you can imagine.

00:16:27.672 --> 00:16:31.948
And the phone rings and I go over to the phone.

00:16:31.948 --> 00:16:40.666
Hello, and I'm so happily married but it's this incredibly sexy girl on the phone and I know that nothing's going to happen.

00:16:40.666 --> 00:16:49.950
But I'm so excited that this incredibly sexy girl is ringing me that I went from utter misery to exaltation in two seconds flat.

00:16:49.950 --> 00:16:53.763
I said oh my god, you know I did that.

00:16:53.763 --> 00:16:58.291
A phone call did that a bit of non-reality, did that?

00:16:58.650 --> 00:17:09.005
surely I'm in more control than I had previously believed yeah, well, well, certainly capable of switching your experience from one thing to another.

00:17:09.005 --> 00:17:11.652
How did you know she was sexy if she was just on the phone?

00:17:12.000 --> 00:17:12.481
I'd met her.

00:17:12.903 --> 00:17:13.887
Oh, you knew her right.

00:17:13.887 --> 00:17:16.963
How wonderful.

00:17:16.963 --> 00:17:17.787
I love that.

00:17:18.369 --> 00:17:23.066
Yeah, but sometimes it's these little tiny things that actually change the whole course of your life in a way.

00:17:23.407 --> 00:17:24.811
Yeah, I mean that's very memorable.

00:17:24.811 --> 00:17:40.131
I can resonate to that because I've had moments when I've been sort of wallowing in my pain, the disaster of my life, and what am I even for All those thoughts, and then someone rings me up and goes hello, what's going on?

00:17:40.131 --> 00:17:44.503
And suddenly, oh, my life's terrible, I'm dying.

00:17:44.503 --> 00:17:45.826
Well, I well, I love you.

00:17:46.387 --> 00:18:02.103
Damn it, they've broken my mood I'm so selfish of them I had a friend who used to say I've only got one friend, but he used to say that to all his friends if he had many right.

00:18:02.103 --> 00:18:12.089
So when I asked you the question about about what was it in you that sort of responded to the whole antibiotic nightmare situation in the way that you did.

00:18:12.089 --> 00:18:15.832
It sounds like you were kind of very curious.

00:18:15.832 --> 00:18:17.393
Would you say that was right.

00:18:17.393 --> 00:18:23.557
Why did you not just go oh right, I'm broken, that's it.

00:18:23.557 --> 00:18:24.422
Why did you not?

00:18:24.442 --> 00:18:25.365
just go oh right, I'm broken, that's it.

00:18:25.365 --> 00:18:26.969
Well, because I didn't believe it.

00:18:26.969 --> 00:18:27.971
I didn't believe it.

00:18:27.971 --> 00:18:38.146
It was very interesting because as I got iller and iller and could do less and less and less, you know, stairs became impossible, and then cutting things I mean everything became really, really difficult.

00:18:38.146 --> 00:18:47.423
The weird thing is I would have previously said that if I ever got to that stage, I'd probably want to just commit suicide and be over.

00:18:47.423 --> 00:18:48.728
But it was the opposite.

00:18:48.728 --> 00:18:51.455
I I was sort of stronger for it.

00:18:51.455 --> 00:18:56.049
It didn't deplete my will in any way.

00:18:56.049 --> 00:18:57.354
I was expecting it to.

00:18:57.354 --> 00:18:59.019
I would have expected it to, but it didn't.

00:18:59.019 --> 00:19:07.965
Actually, and despite being incredibly limited in what I could suddenly do, I was still confident there had to be an answer.

00:19:07.965 --> 00:19:09.887
I mean, that's just how it seemed to me.

00:19:10.808 --> 00:19:14.010
Yeah, so you were much more resilient than you thought you would be.

00:19:14.191 --> 00:19:16.492
Yes, yes, yeah.

00:19:16.913 --> 00:19:26.882
And do you think you know you've worked with a lot of people now Do you find that in the people you work with that they're more resilient than they think they're going to be.

00:19:26.902 --> 00:19:33.071
Well, I think that is the human condition that you just adapt to where you are and get on with it.

00:19:33.071 --> 00:19:34.755
That's what it seems.

00:19:34.755 --> 00:19:43.656
I mean, obviously some people have misery guts and are going to spend their life enjoying themselves by complaining to other people who like suffering.

00:19:43.656 --> 00:19:52.459
And there must be some chemical in the brain that responds to suffering, because people like wallowing in self-pity.

00:19:53.079 --> 00:19:55.846
Yeah, that's true, and I know a number of people who like to do that.

00:19:55.846 --> 00:20:02.067
I mean, I've got to say these are people I don't spend an enormous amount of time with, because it's not really.

00:20:02.067 --> 00:20:23.471
It's the opposite of what you were talking about in the way you talk to people, when you say has the pain gone, as opposed to saying so, how bad is the pain now and how much of your body is overwhelmed by the pain, which completely goes in the opposite direction, doesn't it?

00:20:24.301 --> 00:20:27.009
I mean it must be miserable for you.

00:20:27.451 --> 00:20:27.671
Yes.

00:20:28.119 --> 00:20:30.932
Yeah, it is, I hadn't thought about it before.

00:20:30.973 --> 00:20:34.931
Yeah, it's miserable, I can only imagine what you must be suffering.

00:20:36.663 --> 00:20:37.144
Oh yes.

00:20:39.281 --> 00:20:39.904
I love that.

00:20:39.904 --> 00:20:43.346
So did you actually train in hypnosis or did you just kind of?

00:20:43.587 --> 00:20:44.230
Yeah, I did.

00:20:44.932 --> 00:20:45.132
Right.

00:20:46.621 --> 00:20:50.411
And there's a book called Get the Life you Want.

00:20:50.411 --> 00:20:54.188
Get the Life you Want by Richard Bandler.

00:20:54.188 --> 00:21:05.952
Richard Bandler has a mixed reputation because he's the guy who started NLP neurolinguistic programming but like anything, you know, a knife can butter your bread or it can stab somebody.

00:21:05.952 --> 00:21:09.247
Hypnosis can be used in any way you like.

00:21:09.247 --> 00:21:10.530
You know any direction.

00:21:10.530 --> 00:21:14.810
So a lot of people have used this in a direction that's been manipulative, let's say.

00:21:14.810 --> 00:21:19.760
But what I learned was fantastic and I don't.

00:21:19.760 --> 00:21:34.796
You know mainly the bits I've taken from it's all sorts of techniques, you know you could ask people questions to see where they look, see what part of brain they're responding, to see if they're telling the truth or not many things that I was taught, but I never used any of those.

00:21:35.478 --> 00:22:10.977
I just used the words yeah yeah, that's so powerful yes, well, the thing you, the thing you were saying about wrapping the command within what you're saying, um, I remember learning that because we studied nlp back in the 80s as well, and I remember people were mostly learning to that, um, as part of being able to influence people to buy things exactly that's whereas you're influencing people to well, buy themselves by themselves, I suppose, to kind of activate themselves, to heal themselves, but using the exact same technique.

00:22:10.997 --> 00:22:16.023
I mean, it's the first time I've heard somebody using that particular technique for that particular purpose.

00:22:16.023 --> 00:22:22.201
Yeah, did you come up with that idea yourself, or or did you know a?

00:22:22.240 --> 00:22:26.636
lot of it I've inherited and I've read a lot of books by some of the famous siblings.

00:22:26.636 --> 00:22:28.364
Uh, so a lot of it.

00:22:28.364 --> 00:22:33.726
I've picked up from other people, most of it, and then you know bits and pieces I suddenly realized were embellished or whatever.

00:22:33.726 --> 00:22:38.152
But, um, you know, they're being really, really good teachers out there.

00:22:38.152 --> 00:22:53.213
Um, there's one one uh guy his name is mccall m mc c o double l, who has some fantastic recordings that he made and a couple of books, which is just brilliant.

00:22:53.213 --> 00:23:01.760
Uh, there's one that I read called hypnosis for conscious consciousness wow and that was very interesting.

00:23:01.780 --> 00:23:03.444
I learned some of their techniques.

00:23:03.545 --> 00:23:21.086
For instance, one of the techniques was um, uh, you, you take them up, you have them start in a beautiful garden, then you have them float up up the mountains up to a peak and they're really, really high.

00:23:21.086 --> 00:23:24.067
Then you allow them to, you know, take in the view and everything.

00:23:24.067 --> 00:23:30.748
Then you say that they'll set, they're safely going to go out into space and float about.

00:23:30.748 --> 00:23:42.077
And then you start suggesting that there's a star over there which is beaming sort of goldy, diamondy light and you're absorbing it right in so many many things you can play with.

00:23:42.077 --> 00:23:52.971
And you can get them to come out of their body and look at their body and watch nasty fumes and vapors of all different browns and nasty colors come out of them.

00:23:52.971 --> 00:24:01.776
And then you can get them, for instance, to see themselves the perfect version of themselves standing out there and getting them to embrace their perfect vision of themselves.

00:24:01.776 --> 00:24:04.569
Standing out there and getting them to embrace their, their perfect vision of themselves.

00:24:04.569 --> 00:24:10.469
You can get them to sort of turn around and they're all their ancestors, going absolutely back in time.

00:24:10.849 --> 00:24:22.070
Get them to walk amongst them, because they will have messages for you yeah and you turn the other way around, say here are the future generations that that could be what would you like to tell.

00:24:22.070 --> 00:24:29.547
I mean you can do anything, I mean you can literally do anything, and then you have to take your time bringing them very slowly back.

00:24:29.547 --> 00:24:33.037
When I was first starting, I made the mistake of bringing people back too fast.

00:24:33.096 --> 00:24:48.618
Now you know what, what's going on, you know, so I learned to do the bringing back bit quite slowly yeah well, I had no idea this was part of what you actually do with people, and all of those examples you just gave there are just utterly delightful.

00:24:48.618 --> 00:24:50.630
I felt myself going off on a little journey.

00:24:50.630 --> 00:24:55.949
Of course I didn't have my eyes closed, I'm not in a meditative space, so you didn't have to bring me back really slowly.

00:24:55.949 --> 00:25:00.233
I could just imagine it briefly, but very, very powerful.

00:25:00.233 --> 00:25:22.800
I feel inspired to ask you have you worked with people who are suffering from mental imbalances and problems where they're experiencing a lot of distress or PTSD or any of those things?

00:25:22.800 --> 00:25:25.186
Have you worked with people in those situations?

00:25:26.189 --> 00:25:31.919
well, I came from a family of depressed people half the family anyway.

00:25:31.919 --> 00:25:43.080
So my half brother committed suicide when he was young, and so I got quite an interest in making people happy, basically yeah.

00:25:43.080 --> 00:26:00.492
And so because I felt at the time when my brother was getting ill that I could probably do something, but the only answer I had at the time was and I didn't do it was to give him something like LSD.

00:26:00.492 --> 00:26:12.126
I felt that was possibly something that might just enlighten him, but I was too scared that he might get worse yeah um, anyway, uh, so I started studying it.

00:26:12.166 --> 00:26:20.869
You know schizophrenia, manic depression, bipolar, all the different sort of things, autism, you name it, and depression of all kinds.

00:26:20.869 --> 00:26:30.352
And I suppose probably the most powerful story about this relates to Bill W, the guy who started Alcoholics Anonymous.

00:26:30.953 --> 00:26:34.451
Oh, yeah, and I don't know the story of starting it.

00:26:34.451 --> 00:26:34.692
No.

00:26:35.586 --> 00:26:39.843
Okay, well, he was what they would have called then manic depressive, I think.

00:26:40.263 --> 00:26:40.404
Yeah.

00:26:41.046 --> 00:26:41.829
Oh, we'd call it now.

00:26:41.829 --> 00:26:46.013
And that was presumably the reason he became an alcoholic in the first place.

00:26:46.375 --> 00:26:46.595
Yes.

00:26:46.895 --> 00:26:47.538
With depression.

00:26:47.538 --> 00:26:54.233
Anyway, after he's created the 12 steps and everything, he's now pretty much out of his organization.

00:26:54.233 --> 00:26:55.932
It's running itself or whatever.

00:26:55.932 --> 00:27:05.510
And he goes to Dr Abraham Hoffer in Canada, who's a well-known psychiatrist, and says, look, can you fix my depression?

00:27:05.510 --> 00:27:11.307
Now, he went there because Abraham Hoffer was well-known for not using drugs like the other psychiatrists.

00:27:11.307 --> 00:27:24.030
He used nutrition and he gave him a bunch of vitamins mainly, but he focused on vitamin B3, which is niacin, and over about 10 days you have to start slowly and build up.

00:27:24.030 --> 00:27:28.791
He built him up to the level where suddenly he wasn't depressed anymore.

00:27:28.791 --> 00:27:36.131
He goes back to AA, says he wants to make niacin the 13th step and they sack him because they don't believe that vitamins are the answer.

00:27:36.131 --> 00:27:38.416
Oh gosh, yeah.

00:27:38.416 --> 00:27:47.027
So niacin still is as effective as it was all those years back and luckily now there are two types.

00:27:47.027 --> 00:27:51.902
The old-fashioned type gave you a flush and some people quite like that.

00:27:51.902 --> 00:27:54.406
You know he gets the blood moving and you're aware of it.

00:27:54.406 --> 00:28:06.619
Um, but there is a now a non-flushing type, and I I make a uh, basically a blend of several types of niacin and um.

00:28:06.619 --> 00:28:09.647
So I mean, for instance, the.

00:28:10.028 --> 00:28:11.652
The average dose is very small.

00:28:11.652 --> 00:28:14.877
What your eye might need might be tiny.

00:28:14.877 --> 00:28:17.228
Let's say you were type 2 diabetic.

00:28:17.228 --> 00:28:25.653
Well, they're all low on vitamin b3, so you you might want to take just a small amount, the same amount that's in my multi b complex.

00:28:25.653 --> 00:28:26.416
That would be enough.

00:28:26.416 --> 00:28:33.554
But uh, there's one case of this woman several years ago, um, who was so depressed.

00:28:33.554 --> 00:28:35.377
All she did was sit in the corner and rock.

00:28:35.377 --> 00:28:36.707
That was it.

00:28:36.707 --> 00:28:51.358
And they built her up to I think it was 10 grams of the non-flush niacin, which is a massive amount, and from one minute to the next she's sitting back at the kitchen table as if nothing had ever happened.

00:28:51.358 --> 00:28:58.569
She got the dose that she needed, snapped her out of it, so the doses can be quite big.

00:28:58.569 --> 00:29:16.195
But there's a book by Dr Abraham Hoffer called Niacin, and if anybody has a depressive tendency and wants to look at Niacin, that book is absolutely blow-your-way stunning, because we've just scratched the surface of what vitamin B3 can do.

00:29:17.566 --> 00:29:24.638
Do you have any idea at all how it actually does that, how it actually produces that result?

00:29:26.945 --> 00:29:35.640
Well, I would suggest that in the old days we were perfect and that nobody had a mental issue.

00:29:35.640 --> 00:29:49.676
But when we started getting toxic with bad foods and poisonous chemicals and when we started getting malnourished with lack of vitamins and nutrients in the food, that we break at our weakest point.

00:29:49.676 --> 00:29:54.073
You know, for me it turned out to be rheumatoid arthritis and type 1 diabetes.

00:29:54.073 --> 00:30:00.051
For many other people it might be epilepsy, it might be, you know, any disease you want to choose.

00:30:00.051 --> 00:30:04.827
But at the end of the day, you know, the doctors say your body's gone wrong.

00:30:04.827 --> 00:30:06.090
I don't believe that.

00:30:06.090 --> 00:30:07.815
They say you've got this disease.

00:30:07.815 --> 00:30:08.885
I don't believe that either.

00:30:08.885 --> 00:30:10.251
They say you've got an autoimmune.

00:30:10.251 --> 00:30:11.135
I don't believe that.

00:30:11.135 --> 00:30:14.849
What I believe is that we're toxically poisoned and malnourished.

00:30:14.849 --> 00:30:19.644
We break at our weakest point and they say oh, you've caught a disease.

00:30:19.644 --> 00:30:22.814
You've suddenly got this disease with this name.

00:30:22.814 --> 00:30:33.112
No, that's how your body is trying its best to cope with being poisoned and starved I see right, and so are you saying we each have a different weakest point?

00:30:33.633 --> 00:30:39.106
yes right, okay, so well, I'm immediately curious.

00:30:39.106 --> 00:30:40.111
Now I'm wondering what?

00:30:40.111 --> 00:30:41.536
What is my weakest point?

00:30:41.675 --> 00:30:54.736
so, um, if I'm quite healthy, I'm healthy at the moment nothing, you don't have to answer this, but if one particular thing has gone wrong before you keep breaking bones, that might be your weakest point.

00:30:54.736 --> 00:31:04.720
You keep bruising, you you know, uh, but clearly some foods will poison people in exactly the same way and they'll all have a thyroid problem Of course, yeah.

00:31:05.384 --> 00:31:17.615
So you've got a kind of a matrix of each person's got their own makeup, which means a different weakest point, and then certain things commonly have a similar effect on many people.

00:31:17.777 --> 00:31:18.377
Yeah, exactly.

00:31:20.227 --> 00:31:28.404
I've got a friend who recently told me they've got a bipolar diagnosis and my response when people say things like that is well, I never really trust these diagnoses anyway.

00:31:29.606 --> 00:31:45.428
Um, but I wasn't able to give any suggestions, so I can now say you might try niacin that's one of many things I I could list a whole load, but can I first give you my definition of the word diagnosis.

00:31:45.807 --> 00:31:46.789
Oh, please yes.

00:31:47.852 --> 00:31:55.148
From the Greek gnosis to know, agnosis, not to know, di-agnosis two people not knowing.

00:31:58.375 --> 00:32:00.638
Fantastic, I love it.

00:32:00.638 --> 00:32:05.351
Well, I probably won't use that when I'm talking to someone who's just had a diagnosis.

00:32:08.209 --> 00:32:10.034
No, it takes the pressure out of it.

00:32:10.315 --> 00:32:10.836
I suppose so.

00:32:14.050 --> 00:32:16.416
Because it may be correct but it might not be.

00:32:16.416 --> 00:32:32.881
Yeah, I mean, so many people believe the diagnosis and actually there was a big study about 25 years ago I was reading about, where they reviewed what the doctors had said and at autopsy what had actually happened.

00:32:32.881 --> 00:32:44.548
Then they had other ones where one person would go to 10 different doctors and the differences of opinion between what the person was.

00:32:44.807 --> 00:32:58.770
I mean, you know, there wasn't agreement between 10 doctors generally as to what was wrong with one person yeah, yeah but in america, for instance, with private medicine, let's say you come into the doctor's office, who's going to charge you money?

00:32:58.770 --> 00:33:01.013
Now they're not sure.

00:33:01.013 --> 00:33:06.060
Is that Parkinson's, or is it multiple sclerosis, or what is it exactly?

00:33:06.060 --> 00:33:12.313
They just look up in the insurance manual where you get $40,000 for that and $80,000 if you call it that.

00:33:13.684 --> 00:33:15.190
Pause to reflect on it.

00:33:16.073 --> 00:33:16.535
Horrible.

00:33:16.535 --> 00:33:30.479
I don't want to dwell on the horrible stories but it's worth understanding that uh, somebody on chemotherapy, uh, one round of chemotherapy might be tens of thousands of pounds.

00:33:30.479 --> 00:33:33.167
People do 15 rounds.

00:33:33.167 --> 00:33:36.451
It can be a million quid or something in drugs.

00:33:36.451 --> 00:33:54.615
And I interviewed a medical nurse who worked for a while with an oncologist before they quit and he said that somebody's got one week left to live Because in America they can get a commission on the drugs.

00:33:54.615 --> 00:34:10.898
She would see him prescribe a drug that couldn't possibly work in the last week of life but ka-ching, he makes ten thousand dollars or something yeah, that's very sad anyway, the good news is that there the body is self-repairing.

00:34:11.306 --> 00:34:15.112
It just needs some help these days in in the modern world.

00:34:15.112 --> 00:34:19.909
So not poisoning ourselves with toxic foods and toxic chemicals.

00:34:19.909 --> 00:34:25.891
You're not rubbing toxic, chemical-ridden shampoo right into our brain, you know stuff like that.

00:34:25.891 --> 00:34:34.817
Be good, filtering the chlorine out the water, that would be good indeed, yes, yeah, eating delicious organic vegetables and things like that.

00:34:35.978 --> 00:34:40.268
So I think I can see from what you're saying about this connection between power of the mind and natural health.

00:34:40.268 --> 00:34:44.083
So you're using you, you've traveled a of the mind and natural health.

00:34:44.083 --> 00:34:55.958
You've traveled a path where you've understood something about the power of the mind in your own personal experience and you've used that to help escape from the nightmare of the antibiotic thing.

00:34:55.958 --> 00:35:07.027
By the way, I was told by the dentist I had to take antibiotics for something and I said I can't take antibiotics.

00:35:07.027 --> 00:35:08.713
And he said well, why don't you just take something sweet afterwards, you'll be fine?

00:35:08.713 --> 00:35:10.521
I said no, no, no, I don't mean I can't put the thing in my body.

00:35:10.521 --> 00:35:18.269
I mean if I put it in my body, my body will put me on the sofa throwing up for four hours until it's out of my body.

00:35:18.771 --> 00:35:21.536
He went oh, I said is there another option?

00:35:21.536 --> 00:35:23.585
He said, well, of my body?

00:35:23.585 --> 00:35:24.427
He went, oh, I said is there another option?

00:35:24.427 --> 00:35:25.692
He said, well, yeah, you could just rinse it with warm salt water.

00:35:25.692 --> 00:35:28.219
And I said well, why didn't you just say that in the first place?

00:35:29.286 --> 00:35:55.393
And the reason he didn't was because he'd been told he had to tell everybody to take the antibiotics, and also because he was sure that people wanted to be told to take the antibiotics, because they wanted to be given a pill to take, so that would do the job for them without them having to do anything about it, which I do think that's a factor as well, isn't it?

00:35:55.393 --> 00:36:08.952
I think a lot of us were sort of and growing up, if I was not well, I'd be put to bed on a fruit diet until I was better, which might take six days, and other children at school might be given some pills.

00:36:08.952 --> 00:36:17.978
They'd be back at school the next day and I would resent this, but it meant that I was then much healthier after that than they were.

00:36:17.978 --> 00:36:21.333
But, of course, at the age of five I couldn't understand that.

00:36:24.184 --> 00:36:25.067
But now I do.

00:36:25.067 --> 00:36:33.574
I met a private doctor some years ago who's had his own blister packs made up with you know his name on it and they were just chalk pills.

00:36:33.693 --> 00:36:53.137
There were nothing but he gave them out like candy because people wanted a pill yeah, yeah, people want to feel better and want to not have to do anything about it, although I do think and I'm interested to know if you agree with this, I do think that the awareness of the importance of natural health is growing.

00:36:53.137 --> 00:36:54.280
Do you think that's true?

00:36:54.280 --> 00:36:55.304
Well, absolutely.

00:36:55.826 --> 00:36:56.670
I mean pretty much.

00:36:56.670 --> 00:37:02.275
Everybody knows somebody who's experienced some damage from the recent ridiculousness.

00:37:04.786 --> 00:37:06.869
Yeah, absolutely true.

00:37:06.869 --> 00:37:10.257
Yes, knows somebody who's experienced some damage from the recent ridiculousness?

00:37:10.257 --> 00:37:23.099
Yeah, absolutely true, yes, and I and I think I know more people now who would turn to vitamin d or vitamin c first before turning to um nurofen let's say they've got a cold, you know to suppress.

00:37:23.244 --> 00:37:27.030
Nurofen and paracetamol are so dangerous People have got no idea.

00:37:27.512 --> 00:37:27.713
Yeah.

00:37:28.144 --> 00:37:29.447
It could be damaged and stuff.

00:37:29.447 --> 00:37:30.429
It can be frightening.

00:37:30.750 --> 00:37:33.675
I know Sorry.

00:37:34.697 --> 00:37:35.119
I was going to say.

00:37:35.119 --> 00:37:42.159
I think also people are waking up to the fact that the press don't usually tell the truth and politicians are psychopaths.

00:37:43.766 --> 00:37:45.853
Well, I couldn't possibly comment on that, Clive.

00:37:46.746 --> 00:37:47.268
In general.

00:37:47.268 --> 00:37:58.447
So you know, I think people are waking up to the fact that what we're being told is basically usually not true, and that they're telling people to be vegan, for instance, which can be great short term.

00:37:58.447 --> 00:38:03.456
If the government is telling you to be vegan, then I would be very worried about doing it long term.

00:38:04.237 --> 00:38:06.387
Well, of course, the other thing is, we're all unique, aren't we?

00:38:06.387 --> 00:38:12.378
So how can one idea necessarily be right for everybody?

00:38:12.378 --> 00:38:29.445
I've had people say to me, catherine, someone said to me Catherine, I've just read this thing which says if I eat a bit of raw tomato and a bit of raw carrot and a bit of raw radish before every single meal, that's going to be really, really good for me.

00:38:29.445 --> 00:38:32.273
And I said, well, who told you that?

00:38:32.273 --> 00:38:34.398
He said, well, I heard it on a broadcast.

00:38:34.398 --> 00:38:37.197
Someone said that would be very, very good for absolutely everybody.

00:38:37.197 --> 00:38:40.112
And I said, well, that's just not true.

00:38:40.112 --> 00:38:42.545
That would be very, very good for absolutely everybody.

00:38:42.545 --> 00:38:44.748
It might be very good for a lot of people.

00:38:46.572 --> 00:38:53.653
You know, he went well, he tried it and it felt good for him, you know, but that that sort of, I mind you.

00:38:53.653 --> 00:39:05.771
I'm very kind of biased on this, because when my father passed away, he was, he was a naturopath and osteopath, and we found this little box of cards and each card represented a different dietary regime.

00:39:05.771 --> 00:39:19.373
There must have been 60 or 70 different dietary regimes in there, many of them incredibly obscure, and he knew how to apply these to different people and everyone was, you know, banging on about.

00:39:19.373 --> 00:39:21.155
This is the one diet for everybody.

00:39:35.065 --> 00:39:37.213
I think the thing that probably surprises people most is the value of when to use which diet.

00:39:37.213 --> 00:39:52.550
When I mean if somebody's overweight, for instance, and be eating badly, if they're type 2 diabetic, I'd be very tempted to put them on a low carb, vegan, raw veg diet if they could handle it for a short period of time, and they'll very quickly a few days stop being type 2 diabetic.

00:39:52.550 --> 00:40:01.552
But if somebody was weak, I might want them to put them on a raw carnivore diet if we're raw yeah somebody I met.

00:40:02.074 --> 00:40:11.076
He'd been, he'd had ibs for like 10 years, couldn't go out in public, barely uh, and he tried every diet known to man raw vegan, you name it.

00:40:11.076 --> 00:40:11.797
He tried it.

00:40:11.797 --> 00:40:14.588
He went raw carnivore, fixed in two days.

00:40:14.588 --> 00:40:20.697
Uh, alongside a glutathione iv, those two things immediately fixed him.

00:40:20.697 --> 00:40:32.793
My friend, kerry Rivera, who's very well known for repairing children who are on the spectrum, she always used to say that chlorine dioxide was her number one remedy.

00:40:32.793 --> 00:40:34.768
She's now changed it with the children.

00:40:34.768 --> 00:40:38.474
She says she's having the best results putting them on a carnivore diet.

00:40:38.974 --> 00:40:39.657
How interesting.

00:40:39.996 --> 00:40:40.759
Really surprising.

00:40:40.759 --> 00:40:42.869
Yeah, she's been out here for 20 years.

00:40:43.411 --> 00:41:03.137
Yeah, well, I myself I was sort of omnivore and then I went through many years of being vegetarian, which for those years really served me, and then I reached a point where suddenly I was feeling depleted and I had to bring back in animal protein and I immediately started feeling great again.

00:41:03.137 --> 00:41:05.670
And people were saying why are you suddenly eating?

00:41:05.670 --> 00:41:08.889
