Why are you doing Coeliac?

Every moment, of every day, you are behaving in a way that your doctor calls "illness". In particular, you're doing something called "Coeliac disease".

Now, you may find that this is not an easy idea to understand, but the fact is that you're choosing to behave in that way.

Let me explain: Every single thing that goes on in your body does so because it's supposed to work that way. Right now, blood is pumping around your whole body, you food is being digested and the chemical parts are being rebuilt into things you really need. Foreign bacteria are being eaten, your various bits are being filled up with the chemicals they need and the chemicals you don't need are being washed away. It's all very complicated and very clever, and nobody really understands how the whole, incredible symphony works.

But, there is one thing that does understand the whole thing. Your brain - and in particular, your unconscious mind. Now, I know that you're not aware of all this happening - that's because only a tiny little portion of your brain is used for awareness. Most of it is used for running you - just the same as pretty much every other animal on the planet! So, if you've got some funny immune reaction that's damaging your insides, it's happening because your unconscious wants it that way.

And your unconscious wants it that way for a reason. Believe it or not, far from being something wrong with you, your illness is actually, in some strange way, doing you good!

So, what's the reason? Why would your unconscious want to mess up your life to that extent? Nobody knows! Your own, specific reason is hidden away in your unconscious mind, and even if you do ever find out what it is, it's unlikely to make any sense at all - your unconscious mind isn't very reasonable!

But your unconscious knows the reason, and your unconscious is deciding to make you ill because of that reason, and it's continually reinforcing and re-deciding that decision every moment of every day.

So: If you've had enough of doing coeliac, all you have to do is get your unconscious to stop deciding to be coeliac.

Now, I have that question for you again: do you believe me, or do you prefer to believe your doctor?
