Incurables Checklist

The Incurables Program was originally taught by Dr. John Christopher. It is designed to cleanse the body and assist the healing response. The key to healing is to work on cleansing and building all the systems of the body. This checklist offers you many things you can do. We have added to Dr. Christopher’s original concept to be more inclusive.  Even if you are not ill, consider adding some of these to your life.  We’ve divided these under Body,and  Mind & Spirit.  We believe that body, mind and spirit are so connected and interrelated that you cannot effect one without influencing the other.  Healing is a spiritual adventure.  Be open to all possible therapies or tasks, particularly those which will stretch and heal your spirit.  View these lists as posibilities on your road to health.  Incorporate those that “speak to you”.

• Above all, follow the inner voice of your spirit.  It will guide, direct and teach you what you need to do.  The road to health (spiritual and physical) is not intended to be easy.  Our lives are a spiritual journey designed to help us discover who we really are with the help of our challenges.
