Mental Health & Illness | Expanded Definitions & MeaningsUnity Consciousness #2466

(9awv of 11)

Introduction

Apart from going to a psychological journal or book that uses an “optimal theory” worldview, the following is the most uniquely comprehensive discussion of mental health, mental illness, you'll find. At a minimum, this message lays an expanded foundation that allows us to then rebuild better understandings of mental health and mental illness.

A critical step in understanding mental health is becoming aware that we live in societies that invest heavily in ensuring we have mental illness (gullibility, ignorance, stupidity, miseducation, low critical thinking...). Most of us don't want to admit we've been miseducated to not know what we need to know to live optimally (maintain total health).
Furthermore, our societies define mental health/mental illness in a very confined, fragmented suboptimal way.
Go to a search engine and type: what is mental health.

Better Definition - If it is true that cells are the basic unit of life, then cells must also be the basic unit of health and illness. All illness is caused by cellular imbalance. Cellular imbalance causes cellular malfunction. Cellular malfunction manifests as physical illness, emotional illness, spirit-soul illness and mental illness. In other words, mental health depends on cellular health.

The basic cause of cellular imbalance is not enough nutrition and too many toxins.
Any imbalance in our cells, begins to simultaneously lessen our physical, spiritual, emotional and mental health. We are usually not aware of this until the imbalance is large or long existing. Therefore, we must not be deceived into thinking mental illness is a new human illness or is limited to a relative few. Truth is, the masses are mentally ill.

It is possible to correct and recover from cellular malfunction, thus recover from any illness, by restoring cellular balance. Simply put, this requires making adjustments to choices. Of course our ability to restore cellular balance depends on how much and how long our cells are out of balance and the thought processes and methods we use to correct the imbalance. All this is firstly impacted by whether we are using an optimal or suboptimal context to inform and guide our thought processes.

You don't have to be fully versed in mental health in order to begin addressing your mental health. There is no need to run out and talk to a mental health professional. You start by stopping a lot of what you are doing, getting rest, nutrition, reducing toxins, asking the universe and listening to your spirit-soul.

Discussed elsewhere more fully, part of toxin reduction is eliminating stressors. Everyone experiences stress, but, for various reasons, not everyone is able to properly process certain types of stress so that it is released or released in a healthy manner.

Simply put, stress is tension pressure that builds up. This causes extra pressure within and between cells which throws the cells out of balance, thus causes cells to malfunction. This always simultaneously affects us physically, emotionally, spiritually and mentally (These four areas are the “four inseparable aspects of self.”)

Simply put also, one example of an unhealthy buildup of tension pressure is when we take in too many outside views and expectations, but do not release enough of the inside views and expectations of our spirit-soul. Ashe. Asante Sana.

Cells are computers. They function based on information (elements) in the form of duality (binary code). The information must be paired with it's equalizing balancing components. When information in our cells, in our minds, is out of balance, fragmented, unpaired, improperly paired, thus contradictory, then the ecosystem of self does not compute properly because it is out of equilibrium homeostasis, thus we feel ill because we are.

Making The Separable Inseparable Again

Mental health is connected to, thus codependent with, spirit-soul health, emotional health and physical health.

Mark 10:9 (KJV) What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
The Supreme Being joined spirit to mind to emotion to physical.
Mental health is an idea whose time has come back around once again because of the rising new Ages. Religion has been unable to lead the healing of the total self because religion's job is to make mental health and mental illness, unnoticeable, thus also even make us not understand why we are physically sick and the common connection. This is why we automatically, but mistakenly, turn to religion when illness occurs, rather than relying on spirituality every day in every way to keep us healthy. We rely on religion to hopefully fix the effects of our broken logic, rather than relying on spirituality to continuously self-correct broken and incomplete logic. Thus a return to ancient traditions of spirituality is necessary to tie back, spirit-mind-emotion health to physical health.

Closing

Mis-education is a contributor to mental illness for various reasons. Overall, miseducation makes us unaware we must give the same daily attention to mental health as we do other aspects of health.
Mis-education lowers self-awareness, self-esteem, self-study, self-help, self-support, self-knowledge, self-determination, self-worth, self-respect, self-commitment, self-concept, self-image, self-improvement, self-assistance, self-assessment, self-education, self-communication, self-communing and self-love.
Some of the many other names of mental illness are: racism, evil discrimination, infringing on the rights of creation, cognitive dissonance, bad behavior...

I AM repeating the fundamental solution for health: increase nutrition, reduce toxins.
When ill, it is counterproductive to ignore nutrition and then increase toxins by using treatments and medications that have one or more negative toxic direct effects (deceitfully called side effects).

Understand clearly. No person gets sick when one cell is out of balance. Sickness occurs when many cells malfunction and remain out of balance. (Racism occurs when many people have Stage IV mental illness.)
We have multiple annual checkups for various parts of physical health. Even doctor's visits check temperature, lungs, heart rate, blood pressure and so on.
Because the current cadre of mental health professionals are born, bred and fed by suboptimal theory, they are ill-equipped to provide an appropriate definition and address mental health optimally. If they were, they'd be promoting mental health checkups and nutrition; however, there is another group of psychologists, psychiatrists, counselors, teachers, ngangas and other mental health professionals who are much better equipped because they follow optimal theory, upon which the African Utamawazo is based.

All this is also saying that just as individual healing comes from the birthplace source of earth and universe and must reach our cells, so also must collective human healing come from the birthplace source in Africa and African Utamawazo informed knowledge about self and all else. We cannot continue to use the suboptimal contexts, definitions and meanings of the societies we live in, if we want to change those societies and ourselves towards the much better humans are capable of.
