Nirvana of Peristalsis

(also known as Mike's Flog)

   

A Regimen for Remission
This log tracks my regimen of attitude, exercise, stress management, and SCD foods. Since I started this regimen in 1997, I've been able to keep my Crohn's in a drug-free remission.

Monkey-see,
monkey-don't

Even though I may experiment beyond the SCD from time to time, one must remember that everyone is different. Follow the intro diet for at least 30 days, and stick with the SCD until you are completely stable for at least one year before experimenting.

A recent post to the SCD listserve and the Healing Crow Intestinal Health group excerpt reads, "Yesterday somebody on the German scd-list made an interesting remark:
Perhaps striking back is like fighting bad bacteria with prednisone. We have to "starve" the reasons for war and terrorism."

mhs@15:27

Regarding the Trade Center / terrorist activities of last week, I can only hope that the world leadership will find a way to control terrorism without resorting to retaliatory bloodshed, hatred, and violence. After all, I assume last week's actions were motivated by something (real or perceived) which we had done to them in the past. Tit for tat, on a very major scale. I really do not think it does any good to vow to "smoke them out of their holes" when we don't understand why this happened in the first place. Killing simply begets more killing. A lot more dialog please, a lot more understanding, a lot more forgiveness, please, folks!

I hate the use of blanket statements, but let me propose this one as a possible exception: hatemongers are scum.

Breakfast: fruit, nuts.

Yesterday's bad dream hasn't left me, but an hour's worth of yoga class last night did a decent job freeing my mind for an hour.
