Review

In his new book, Why am I Sick? (subtitled What s really wrong and how you can solve it using META-Medicine®), author and head of international training META-Medicine Richard Flook explores illness, traditional medicine, and a new approach to how we can go about healing ourselves. He traces his current affinity with META-Medicine back to how he coped with family bereavement as a 12-year-old child. For years he tried in vain to find out why his mother died so tragically and so young, but much later, while working on another advanced emotional clearing technique, a chance meeting with the founder of the International META-Medicine Association suggested an answer and persuaded him that this was the path he should follow. META-Medicine is not a therapy or therapeutic intervention, Richard believes. Instead, he calls it a model for diagnosing disease that is based on how the body reacts to a significant stressful event which affects the body, mind, spirit, or a person s social and environmental balance . In his introduction to Why am I sick?, EFT master Karl Dawson explains how together with Richard he has successfully combined META-Medicine with his own technique, Matrix Reimprinting. With careful diagnosis you can quickly get to the root of any disease condition using META-Medicine and resolve it using Matrix Reimprinting, he says. Richard devotes his early chapters to the current state of healthcare in the world, why pain and disease happen and what causes them, the two phases of disease and why they keep reoccurring. Later he turns to healing, the role of the brain in controlling disease, the nature of microbes in disease, and also antibiotics and immunisation. In the final chapters he discusses vitality and food, drugs and their side effects, basic psychological symptoms, and the future of medicine. Using many of his own case studies that cover a wide range of conditions, Richard employs a simple diagrammatic approach to represent the key phases of stress and healing and illustrate how they differ from the state of healthy normality. He provides reasons that explain how our current thinking about healthcare is flawed. This book goes completely against the present thinking of traditional medicine, he says, adding that the information he provides is controversial and designed to make the reader think differently about disease . Richard says that if the reader already has a diagnosis and is thinking about certain therapies, whether traditional, complementary or alternative, this book will open their eyes as to why you have your disease and the symptoms you may be experiencing . However, he adds that if the reader intends to act on any of the information he provides in Why am I Sick?, they should contact a licensed META-Medicine health coach who will work alongside their medical practitioner. --aametbuzz.com

The new revised first edition of the groundbreaking book Why am I sick? (subtitled What s really wrong and how you can solve it using META-Medicine) by Richard Flook with Rob Van Overbruggen has been released. Richard Flook; Author and Head of International Training META-Medicine, addresses the problems of traditional medicine, explores new research and a new approach to how we can go about healing ourselves. In the early chapters of Why am I sick? Richard addresses the current state of healthcare in the world, why pain and disease happens and what are the causes. He explains the two distinct phases of every disease (or what s known as the disease process in META-Medicine®) and why a disease can keep reoccurring. Later subjects turn to healing, the role of the brain in controlling disease, the nature of microbes in disease, and also antibiotics and immunisation. In the final chapters he discusses vitality and food, drugs and their side effects, basic psychological symptoms, and the future of medicine. As a warning Richard says that Why am I sick? goes completely against the present thinking of traditional medicine and that the information provided within is controversial and designed to encourage the reader to think differently about disease. How is it that despite all of the technological and scientific advances of the 21st century so many people are dying of terrible diseases? Why is it that the medical profession seemingly has no interest in why we have an illness and exclusively deal with symptoms? What if there were ways of determining exactly why we have a specific disease or ailment? This is what Richard fundamentally strove to answer in his book. --Robert Hopkinson

Product Description

Have you ever asked yourself, why am I sick? and found your doctor can t tell you why? They don t know the cause. Just look at any medical dictionary and for 99% of diseases, The cause is not known . The question is, how can you cure a disease if you don t know the cause? Richard Flook explains how disease really works, showing you how the body has not made a mistake, that there are stressful events that cause diseases to occur. He tackles the challenging questions of why cancers develop, how depression is caused by multiple shocks, how allergies start, why mass vaccination is not the answer and how our present way of treating disease is in desperate need of updating. This book is aimed at anyone interested in health. It will challenge your present belief system about disease and at the same time answer your questions as to Why am I sick? and what you can do about it.

extended advertorial 16 Mar 2011
By D&D TOP 50 REVIEWER
[Later note: "The Longevity Project" by Friedman and Martin is a groundbreaking assessment of what is really directly linked to happiness and health. Don't miss!]

META-Medicine is said to be a model for diagnosing disease. Well, we all know that diagnosis is useless without a related cure - who hasn't been given a diagnosis and then informed it is chronic (meaning "incurable but not - yet - deadly")? Pretty useless, really.

META-Medicine apparently can always uncover the real cause of health problems and the various phases that they create in the body. The book goes into awkwardly explained but interesting detail about various aspects, including examples of how rings that show up in CT-scans can be used to identify the types of emotional shocks and about organs affected by certain types of shock. The authors claim to be able to resolve these causes at a deep level.

This is a potentially wonderful subject but what a let down when you get to the end and realise the book has totally failed in the second part of its subtitle "how you can solve it using META-Medicine". The author claims "I know this [an incredible speed and depth of clearing] is achievable with META-medicine, NLP, Time-Line Therapy, EFT (including the sophisticated Matrix Reimprinting) and the use of NES emotional unblockers."

Well, like lots of us I am familiar with, and have practised, NLP, Time-Line Therapy and EFT and was expecting this book to take us to the next level. Unfortunately, unlike most books on NLP and EFT, this book does not provide any practical tools. Pretty useless, really.

Zero stars for usable information versus five stars for the fantastic potential = three stars in my review (which is MY opinion - if you have a different one, write your own review rather than objecting to mine).

On a different note, I suggest it would be far better to read "Trick and Treat", which turns upside down everything governments have told us to eat for health, "Outsmart Your Cancer", a well-researched book on alternative therapies - anything that can HEAL cancer is also a general healer and should be able to help much else in the body, and "Never Fear Cancer Again" by Raymond Francis, a brilliant distillation of what is truly needed for health: these should be in the "top 10" of any list of great books on health. I feel it's also important to mention the new mental/emotional healing process explained in "The Healing Code" by Loyd/Johnson/Eble. There are hundreds of personal successes listed in the reviews on Amazon.com.

I am an ex-medical doctor, who discovered that medicine is based on hypothesis, and as doctors we were merely putting band-aids (medication)on disease, without discovering why the disease starts in the first place. Ask your doctor, why a disease starts, and we will tell you mostly we don't know. Intuitively most of us know stress (emotional), triggers disease, but we choose to stop thinking the moment we fall ill. If we know why we get sick, as this book does well, then maybe disease can be cured for good, and even better it can be prevented from occurring in the first place. I recommend this book whole-heartedly, but you will only gain if you come with an open mind. I agree that most disease is triggered off by unexpected, dramatic, isolating and no strategy to deal with events in our lives (U.D.I.N moments). Once UDIN moments are discovered we could use many other emotional/energy clearing modalities to clear this such as Emotional Freedom Techniques, Matrix Reimprinting..etc etc, and wellness will resume. Enjoy, the future of healthcare! Note this is a book on self-healing.

Mind-blowing Book 31 Aug 2009
"Why am I sick?" in a few words is easily one of the most interesting books I have ever read. It does a fantastic job of explaining this new approach to health called META-Medicine and the book is possibly the prime source of information for licensed META-Medicine Health Consultants (of which I am training to become after being first introduced to META-Medicine late 2008) and lay people alike.

The book goes into many things in detail such as the distinctive two phases of every disease, why we do not get cancer of the heart, the extent to which a Doctors' method of communication can affect a patient and their healing and even the biological cause of homosexuality. Richard draws upon his own experiences of disease and shares his stories of success.

This book is incredibly in-depth and comprehensive so I recommend that it is read slowly. So much of the information in this book goes completely against many of the deeply rooted and aggressively guarded beliefs about illness and disease. To take it all in at once and not immediately reject it, because it is so different, requires a substantial amount of open-mindedness. Richard does not try to convince you of anything in "Why am I sick?" and instead seems to promote free thinking above anything else. He considers both sides of the story when discussing topics such as vaccines, microbes and the metastasis of cancer cells and encourages the reader to do their own research, providing references to various books and studies.

Some of the most valuable parts of "Why am I sick?" are the many case studies and examples that Richard provides; these personal stories of struggle and transformation are truly fascinating and contribute a lot to the impact this book has. After reading the book twice and now re-reading it for the third time I highly recommend that you read "Why am I sick?" and challenge the assumptions you have about the medical profession, medicine and disease.

What if there were fundamental problems with the current system of conventional medicine? What if there were solutions that could begin to be integrated now? What if disease was not an error of the body but a system of feedback with a meaningful purpose and specific cause? "Why am I sick?" has been written to answer these very questions and it does so very well.
