Uncommon Knowledge

Edited by Dr. Barbara Condron

I first heard about the School of Metaphysics when a friend from college arranged for a Health Analysis to be done for me as a birthday gift. Deborah knew about the Intuitive Analysis consultations because she had been taking classes at the center in Chicago. I had seen many changes in her expression during that time. She appeared to be softer, more loving. She was calmer and had come to terms with the anger she had carried for many years. When I asked Deborah what was going on, she said she was learning about how thoughts manifest in the physical world. I asked her how long she planned on taking courses at the School and she replied, "Until I get my Doctorate." All I could do was mentally roll my eyes because I knew Deborah's tendency to move from one stimulating venture to another. But now I was receiving a Health Analysis from that School.

I wasn't physically present when my intuitive analysis was done although I was aware of the time it was scheduled. In my imagination I could see this woman in a trance-like state in a room filled with other people. I knew there was no way Deborah could have told the Intuitive Reporter anything about me because the Intuitive Reporter was arriving in Chicago that day. I was skeptical, but game for the experience. Not being present for the intuitive report eased any apprehensions I had.

I noted what was going on in my world at the time the intuitive report was to take place so I could verify any information that was given. I was unsure of this whole experience wanting to see if these people would give useful insight. At the time of the Intuitive Health Analysis, I was at my place of employment working with a woman who was very scattered. She would appear very busy but accomplish little. Because of her tunnel vision, I had to work twice as hard so my day was frustrating and I had a very large headache.

Later that day I listened to the cassette tape of my intuitive report. This is how it began:

"This one is feeling quite annoyed at this point. We do see her reacting very spontaneously to the point where she can become easily motivated, stimulated, or annoyed. We see this one quite impatient at this point. We see a certain amount of disdain for the activity at hand, and this one is feeling unappreciated and not particularly enjoying what she is doing. We see her to feel restricted in her freedom at this time and does not feel satisfied. We see there is a need for this one to use the present activity as a stepping stone to something higher or better within her own recognition. As long as she is resenting it she is not getting any betterment from it.

We do see that there is a need for a formulation of a goal for herself, for we see her to be living from day-to-day without any sense of purpose. We do see that if she were then to formulate a goal, and use whatever activity at hand there is to create a respect for self in achieving that goal, she can more efficiently experience life.

We see this one feels some resentment towards another individual at this time. In fact, there are several. This one becomes angry when she feels that others are not agreeing with her ideals and yet she is not really clear on what her ideals are. We do see that there is a desire for experiencing harmony in all situations and she tends to take it very personally when there is not total agreement at all times. We do see that there is a part of herself that desires to express anger at these moments, but we do see that she will not give herself permission to express anger and thus there would be a tendency to hold inside self the annoyance she experiences and become involved in a self pity attitude."

When I first heard this intuitive analysis its accuracy shocked me. I knew there was something to these reports and this School because this woman had just revealed my innermost secrets. She was speaking thoughts only I knew I had because I had never told anyone. I had just moved back to Chicago having spent four structured years away at college, and now I didn't know what I wanted to do. She continued with the analysis, describing physical conditions that I was experiencing in my digestive system and even describing what foods caused the most discomfort. I was convinced that there was a great deal of truth and value in these reports and in this organization. I at least began to consider the idea that there was truth to the mind and body connection.

Soon after receiving this analysis, I began taking classes in the study of the mind at the School of Metaphysics. I wanted to learn how I could change some of those inharmonious attitudes and thoughts into ones that would cause me to feel joy and peace. I also wanted to experience something I felt very little - love. In the classes I learned that unexpressed thoughts of guilt, resentment or even indecisiveness produce physical diseases and disorders. I also learned how to correct those attitudes in myself as well as others. For there to be health and wholeness, thoughts need positive direction to cause forward motion. This was important to me because at the age of 22 I still experienced the acne condition I had had since entering puberty.

I had acne since the age of twelve. It seemed that when I reached puberty I constantly fought the blemishes that would erupt on my face. I was quite upset by this because my older sister had beautiful skin and I didn't understand why I should have acne. I didn't think it was fair. When I received my analysis, I discovered how often I wanted to express anger but would not give myself permission to do so. This caused me to wonder when I first developed this self-defeating habit.

When I was about five years old, I decided I wouldn't cry. I created this strange pact with myself because my older sister cried enough for both of us. Being the middle child of three, I was looking for that special identity which belonged to only me. I wanted to feel special and be treated that way by adults. I felt a little lost as to how to gain the kind of attention I wanted, having noted that my father wasn't too impressed with my older sister's crying spells. He would say, "Stop your crying" or "I'll give you something to cry about." I knew he would never hit my sister, but her constant crying grated on his nerves.

I looked up to my father. He was very strong emotionally and I knew he wore the pants in the house because when he spoke I and everyone else heeded his words. He wasn't a cuddly dad, one that easily expresses his warmth and loving side, but he was so very strong in my eyes I never felt lost around him. I decided I wanted to be "Daddy's little girl" but because of my dad's character I had my work cut out for me.

I began to imitate him, and that meant I did not cry about anything. Many times I wanted to cry either from pain or fear, but I resolved I would not. I just swallowed those feelings and never complained. I was good at pretending, but I began to get sick a lot.

I always had sore throats or fever blisters. My mother became very concerned because I also tired easily. Every Saturday, I visited the doctor for blood tests trying to determine just what was wrong with me. When I moved into adolescence, I grew out of sore throats and fever blisters into a face of blemishes. The older I got, the worse it became. I went to several different doctors who treated me in all kinds of ways, but nothing seemed to improve my condition. I began to withdraw further and further into myself. When I received my analysis, this was one of the areas I asked about and this was the response:

"There is an uneven distribution of oils in the skin to where there are areas that are extremely dry and other areas that are extremely oily. We do see this creating blemishes. We do see the uneven distribution relates to the involvement of the nervous system and the tendency to not allow self to speak her opinions, to hold back in this way. This can be altered by utilizing the suggestions already given especially in formulating a goal and allowing self to be stimulated each day by focusing on this goal. As this one then works in the physical in evening out the attitudes, the periods of enthusiasm, the periods of slowed reaction, as those become evened out, the body functioning will balance out as well. Then there will be a more even distribution of body energies, fluids, oils, and such." (65788JMW)

In the section of my intuitive analysis I quoted earlier, the Intuitive Reporter spoke about the anger I had kept inside, refusing to express it outwardly. This seemed to make sense to me since I described myself as being very shy. Even though I had opinions, I very rarely expressed them to others. Some of my first thoughts went back to when I was a child and I refused to cry because I wanted to be strong. I learned this refusal to express thoughts from watching my older sister cry about everything. Even though she received a great deal of attention, the attention she received was not pleasant from my point of view. I also watched my dad. He seemed always to be in control, never looking sad or hurt, although he did raise his voice in anger. Even though I loved my father, he would scare me when he yelled, so I tried to be as good as I could to avoid his wrath.

I can look back now on my childhood and see why I had manifested the various conditions I did. When I was about five I started refusing to express my thoughts, feelings, and emotions. I began to experience herpes coupled with a high fever, making me delirious. From that time forward I created phobias attached to the world around me. I was afraid of birds, dogs, horses, even the wind. My world changed because I held onto strong thoughts of no longer being in control of me or my life.

When I was seven, the sore throats began. At that time no one around me knew that this disorder arises from a weak use of will or the need to follow through on a decision that has been made. At seven, my family was planning to move and I was not sure I wanted this to happen. I knew I had no choice in the matter but that didn't keep me from being very upset about the friends I was leaving behind. My world was changing and I had no choice in the matter.

With the onset of adolescence, my face was in full bloom, covered with blemishes. Even though I was a few years older, I still had not learned to express my thoughts. I was extremely shy and would not look people in the eyes. I had very little respect for my self or my ideas because I wasn't sure if others would see things in the way I did, or if my ideas were right, so I just kept to myself.

When I received my first Intuitive Health Analysis, it gave me permission in a sense to begin expressing my thoughts and feelings, getting ideas and emotions out of my head so I could begin to experience calmness within. This did take some time because I was at least 22 years of age before I began speaking my mind. I received another intuitive analysis about a year later. By this time the blemishes were beginning to calm down but there were still scars on my face marking the presence of those old attitudes. I asked what could be done about this and the Intuitive Reporter stated that I needed to begin loving myself realizing thoughts which I viewed as wrong were not a reflection of my worth and value. The report suggested I spend time looking at my reflection in the mirror and project loving thoughts to my self. As symptomatic relief, an application of baking soda and lemon juice paste was suggested to assist the release of toxins from my skin.

Since that time I have made great changes in my ability to express myself. I learned that anger was not something evil, rather an indication of a need for understanding. Most importantly I have learned to love and respect myself. My world looks much brighter now and in my control. The Health Analysis I received began my search for truth within Self and within the world. Since that time, discoveries and learning in the field of health and healing now enable me to live, display, and teach others a more productive way to live.

An Intuitive Health Analysis can be a tool for inspiration as well as accurate information for self-evaluation. Many times it is easier to be objective about others than it is to be objective about ourselves. We tend to get involved in ourselves and our experiences, forgetting the bigger picture of life as souls having a connection with our Creator. Because Health Analyses describe the mental and emotional disorders, they offer this type of objective viewpoint. The mental disorders cited are ways of thinking which are out of alignment with our true nature. The emotional disorders described will show how these misunderstandings are expressed outwardly. To gain the full benefit from a Health Analysis, you must consider that the mind has the capability of changing. Because we as thinkers can change our identity, we can also change our mental and emotional states as well as our physical bodies. These changes are created through the use of imagination, will and reasoning.

An Intuitive Health Analysis examines the health aura to give a complete analysis of the mental, emotional, and physical state of the individual requesting the analysis. The physical body, as well as thoughts, emanate an expression of energy. This is called an aura. When we have a thought, be it productive or not, energy is used in giving that thought life. Scientists tell us that nothing is made new and nothing is destroyed, only changed in appearance. All matter is energy in the process of change.

Our auras are a result of energy changing from its grossest point, the physical expression, back to its more subtle and finer form of the origin of thought. For this reason the Intuitive Reporter's attention is directed to the deepest level of the subconscious mind where thoughts begin. The Intuitive Reporter then describes the health of the person requesting the analysis. Beginning with the causal disorders in the thinking, these are traced through their emotional expression and, finally, the resulting condition of the physical body. The Reporter is also instructed to relate suggestions for the correction of any disorder seen.

The body of the analysis is separated into three components. The first portion is the examination of any mental attitudes or thought disorders including suggestions for causing more harmony in the thinking. This section gives the client a way to see what he can do to change his patterns of thinking and lifestyle to produce health. For example, in my first analysis which I have shared with you I wanted to know how to correct the condition with my skin. The acne was the effect in the physical of my mental attitudes of feeling worthless and not expressing my thoughts or opinions. These attitudes caused a distortion in the normal patterns of communication between my mind and the physical nerve impulses in my body. As I used the suggestions given and began to express my thoughts without attachment to whether others would agree, my skin began to heal.

The second portion of an Intuitive Health Analysis focuses on the emotional system relating how the individual uses or misuses the expression of these energies and again suggestions for using the emotions more productively are offered. My analysis noted that I expressed much through the emotions often draining my Self of energy by extreme mood changes from one moment to the next. By failing to fully express my thoughts, my body would at one point be full of energy, ready to fight, and then fatigued. The analysis stated that until I could change my thinking and begin to use that energy with direction, I would need periods of rest in order to heal my body.

The final portion of the analysis examines the physical body of the client describing any primary disorder seen. Suggestions for symptomatic relief through diet, herbs, vitamins, and exercise are given as well as suggestions for care from health professionals when needed. These recommendations are for temporary, physical relief giving the client time to make changes in the thinking patterns where the disorders originate. All the conditions that an individual may be experiencing are considered and suggestions for correction are given. For instance, one woman was experiencing inflammation in the duodenum and small intestine, as well as fluctuations in blood sugar levels. Her analysis suggested ingesting small amounts of lemon water and adding foods with alkaline content to aid in digestion. Jerusalem artichokes were suggested for greater utilization of sugars and red meat for increased levels of iron in the blood. These recommendations were for temporary, physical relief giving the woman time to make changes in the thinking patterns where her disorders began.

The value of these analyses lies in what they can teach you about cause and effect. The information is presented so you can trace the physical conditions back to mental and emotional disorders. You can use the suggestions to cause not only temporary healing but also permanent healing. When you change attitudes from disorder to order, you cause health in your physical body. This state of health produces a permanent healing. Physical substances such as vitamins, herbs, and prescription drugs can temporarily relieve the pain or even eliminate the problem, however unless there is a change in the thinking the offending condition will reoccur.

To be whole and healthy, one must have mental, emotional, and physical well-being. According to an ancient definition by Pericles, health is "that state of moral, mental, and physical well-being which enables a man to face any crisis in life with the utmost facility and grace." The following analysis is an example of this ancient idea.

"Would suggest to this one that health is not only physical. Health does begin within this one's own outlook upon life. It is in this one considering the Self to be very beautiful, very worthwhile and deserving of living a very beautiful, worthy life. This would initiate the action that would produce health within the entire system" 725906LJF

Through information gained in Intuitive Health Analyses, you can begin making connections between the mental thoughts and the physical conditions you are experiencing. The following excerpt was for a man who displayed a great deal of patience with others while being very hard on himself. It describes how a restriction in the ability to express feelings, especially emotional reactions which have been labeled as wrong, can cause disorders in the lungs. In essence, this man is suffocating himself by not being true to self and expressing who he is.

"We see within the emotional system there to be a type of depression that is taking place. Would suggest to this one that it is important for this one to express this one's feelings for we see that at the present time period the type of denial that this one is expressing is causing a slowness of this one's own expression. Would suggest as this one begins to express the emotions to recognize that the emotions that this one analyzes intellectually as being harmful to the self and to others can be useful in aiding this one to evaluate where this one is within this one's own thinking. We see that as a result of this suppression of emotions, this one experiences a great deal of strain within this one's physical body. We see there to be difficulty within the respiratory system and also an accumulation of phlegm. Would suggest that deep breathing would aid in strengthening this area, as well as the inhalation of steam which would aid in moistening and breaking down the phlegm." 214915SMR

Many people feel that the way to achieve emotional control is to suppress the emotions. They never wonder what happens to the energy when denied expression. If we place a knot in a garden hose to prevent water from moving through the hose, but never turn the water off, what do you think will eventually happen to the hose? The pressure from the water would eventually cause the hose to burst. The same thing happens to us when we continue to deny that we feel angry or hurt. Eventually, something will trigger us so we explode in an emotional outburst or if given no release, the explosion occurs in our physical body in the form of disease. This man's intuitive report indicated his need to express his feelings so he could become more self aware. There are better ways than physical disease to understand your emotions and be in control of them.

Each Health Analysis is designed to identify any disorder whether mental, emotional, or physical. This gives clear insight into areas needing to be changed and corrected to create wholeness. These analyses are complete in and of themselves. During each analysis, the Conductor serves as a connecting link between you and the Intuitive Reporter. In addition to insuring accuracy and quality, the Conductor relates to the Intuitive Reporter the questions you may have concerning the information given. Since intuitive reports relate primary disorders, there may be secondary disorders that will not be addressed unless specific questions are asked. For example, the skin eruptions I was experiencing at the time of my first analysis were a secondary disorder stemming from the build-up of toxins caused by malfunction in my eliminatory system. Because some of the organs involved in elimination were not performing their function, my body was compensating, trying to find another route for the elimination of waste. My skin had become this vehicle for cleansing the body.

Another example of a secondary condition addressed in an Intuitive Health Analysis concerns a woman who desired to know the cause of hives and how she could stop them.

"There are skin eruptions, but we do not see the condition referred to as 'hives'. We see that the skin eruptions are a reaction, a nervous reaction, to the amount of energy in the body that does not have an outlet to the condition of the nervous system that has been described." 711895BGO

A variety of questions can be answered with the use of the Health Analyses. A recent analysis addressed a woman's health in relation to her spiritual learning. She was a nurse who had been working with AIDS patients and who had become HIV positive through a needle-stick. Seeking counseling from a close friend who knew about the intuitive reports, her friend suggested she receive an analysis. The nurse wanted to know the purpose for this experience at this time in her life because she believed there was a spiritual lesson for her to learn. She was also curious about the karmic implications wondering if her condition had any relationship to past life debts. The analysis offered this insight:

"We see this experience is a way for this one to change this one's perspective in helping people, not to stop helping them but that with a different perspective this one could be of much more help to this one's Self and to others. Would suggest to this one that this experience does not mean that this one's body is in a condition to fully deteriorate with the virus. There is a need for this one to stop these types of visualizations and to recognize that although this one has tested positive this one can carry this virus throughout this one's life without ever passing it onto another human being or manifesting symptoms in this one's own physical body.

Would suggest to this one that it would only be through this one's own attitudes of sympathy and of fully identifying with those that this one is trying to help that this one could manifest the full conditions of that virus. It is a possibility this one could produce those circumstances in the life, but it is not needed. The producing of this experience has been through this one's too strong identification with this one's patients rather than identifying with this one's own learning and this one's own life. This one has become too emotionally involved where this one has lost this one's Self in this one's work and loved ones that are this one's patients.

There is a need for this one to keep a sense of Self, yet have the compassion and involvement with others. This is the lesson in this experience for this one. This one can make it as easy or as difficult as this one chooses. It is not through punishment or anything that this one would need to be punished for that this experience is present. It really can be one that can change this one's life for the better."

This information clarified the mental attitudes causing the nurse's physical condition. It answered her questions concerning the opportunity to learn and verified that her condition was not the result of some misdeed in a past lifetime. The karma, or indebtedness to Self, revolved around her need to learn about Self by adding to her understandings in the way described.

Since she intends to pursue health, the nurse specifically asked for guidance in Self healing. Having plans for marriage and children, her questions included these areas of concern. The analysis revealed that she could marry and carry a child without infecting her partner or the fetus with the virus. This would depend upon her attitudes and the actions she would take from this point forward. The analysis offered the following guidance concerning the healing process:

"Would suggest to this one that just as many times a small amount of a poison is given to produce immunity, this one can cause this experience to occur in a similar manner. Whereby, the introduction of the virus into this one's system can be used and depending upon the way this one's own immune system acts on it this could produce immunity in this one's body toward the virus.

We see besides the visualizing of this, the learning of Self worth, the learning of having a purpose for this one's own growth, a purpose of this one's own for serving others, would aid this one greatly as well. Primarily the change in attitude that would effect the change in this one's immune system would be for this one to be as free and as giving in a compassionate way as this one has been but through the elimination of this one's sympathizing. This one could be even more loving and compassionate for there is a certain place where this one's sympathy stops the Self from loving and caring. We see also that the sympathy causes this one to lose the sense of Self and causes this one to lose respect for the individuals this one works with. Therefore, changing the sympathy to compassion or empathy is much of what is occurring at the present period of time and is the learning that is needed. Would suggest to this one that the practicing and the learning of telepathy could also aid this one in making this change, and producing the understanding that this one desires to experience." 529906CSR

As described in this analysis, it is always our freedom to change our attitudes and cause health to be a part of our whole being.

All Intuitive Reports offered through the School of Metaphysics are recorded on cassette tape and given to the client. Intuitive Health Analyses are an average of fifteen minutes of constant information that you can use for months and even years to enhance your health. Through the years, we have served people on six continents with Health Analyses You need not be physically present to receive this type of intuitive report, but the complete address of where you will be at the time the intuitive report is done is required.
