This web site is one of our network of ten that are operated by the Carolina Institute for Conflict Resolution and Creative Leadership (CICRCL, pronounced “circle”) and based in the mountains near Asheville, North Carolina. As Co-directors of CICRCL, our mission is providing our readers with evolutionary resources for shifting their consciousness. This web site features some of the evolutionary health resources that we discovered that have shifted our consciousness and supported us in healing ourselves.

            When people ask us “who is your primary medical provider?” we reply, “We are!” Over the years we discovered, sometimes out of necessity, the health products and resources that supported us in being our own primary health providers. Do we use auxiliary health providers? Absolutely! However, we choose them very carefully and only work with those who honor us being in charge of our health decisions.

            Currently, we work with auxiliary health providers, including an integrative physician, multiple bodyworkers and an acupuncturist, who use alternative and complementary health methods such as nutritional therapy, ionic footbaths, and high-tech diagnostic tools as well as the traditional blood work. In addition, we do daily yoga and meditation to help manage our stress.

            Because we live somewhat remotely in the mountains, we have an elliptical machine in our home to help us keep fit. We also see biological dentists who understand that the health of the mouth and the teeth are central to overall health. We have had our amalgam fillings and root canals removed to improve our overall health. Finally, many of our nutritional supplements are pharmaceutical grade, which also help keep our bodies in balance and manage our stress very carefully.

            On this site, we share about our journeys of self-healing. Barry talks about healed himself of cancer twice by using holistic, alternative, and complementary medical practices. Janae shares about how she healed her developmental trauma that had plagued her for years using many of the tools you will find in our newest book, Healing Developmental Trauma. 

            We are also excited to share our own mindbody paradigm and some of the leading edge research about the connections between conflict, shock, trauma, and stress, and degenerative health conditions that appear in the mindbody. Much of this information is not readily available in the US.

            We stopped referring to degenerative physical conditions as “diseases” once we understood how the mindbody responds to shock, trauma and stress and is able to naturally and spontaneously heal itself. After reading what we share here on this site, it may be difficult for you to believe in the disease model any more. Our newest book, Healing Developmental Trauma, has a whole chapter on this research and we will present segments of that chapter here on this site, including some material that we didn’t put into that chapter.

            On this site we share many of the self-healing secrets that have helped us stay healthy and hope that these resources to help shift your own consciousness and take charge of your own health.

You can contact us about self-healing issues at our social networking site, where we have a forum and chat room.

At our YouTube channel you'll find a lot of information on co-dependency, counter-dependency, developmental trauma and relationships.
