            How Hezi Helped himself to Rehabilitate  his Physical and Mental Situation | 
        
        
          Physical Disabilities  | 
        
        
          | After a series of diseases such as  Multi-System Failure, CVA, Cancer,  diabetes, Heart Failure … and more, attacked my husband at the age  of 50 to 56, (now 59), one after the other, and left him with physical  disabilities,  Hezi's mental  situation was insufferable. | 
        
        
          | The anger about the injustice, the  frustration for what has happened to him was enormous. | 
        
        
          | Recovery   required  significant mental  strength , that Hezi lacked,  as he also had to cope with permanent  physical damage as a result of the difficult diseases : | 
        
        
          | Weakness &  Paralysis seizures of his right side body (from the CVA); limbs numbness (from  diabetes), left arm paralysis, Instability – Standing &  Walking, severe Back pains, Heart  Failure, Diabetes, 30 kg overweight. | 
        
        
          | He also had to cope with the crash of his  productive, successful and happy man identity – to a dysfunctional, depressed  handicapped needy person – at age of 50 to 56. |

          | Depression | 
        
        
          | So how can you cope with such horror –  how can you even keep on leaving? | 
        
        
          | He was embittered, angry and deeply depressed.  | 
        
        
          | The doctors didn't give much hope for medical  recovery, more over – they all warned about his overweight aggravating his  health – and together with all his medical problems – endangered his life. | 
        
        
          | The overweight also made his overall functioning  very difficult. 90% of his waking hours – were on the TV sofa. | 
        
        
          | The greatest comfort was food – "what  else was there for him….?"  And he "needed  and deserved this comfort…" - so he thought and repeatedly said. | 
        
        
          He was waiting for some salvation – with  no chances of arriving… so why not enjoy life as long as he can? – And food is  a great joy – we all know that…  | 
        
        
          | And there was where he had to make the  change – his thought of what he needed. | 
        
        
          | How Can you Cope? –  How can you heal? | 
        
        
          | You probably ask yourself – what does she  want from him – after Cancer, CVA – how can he help himself? What is he – a  doctor? | 
        
        
          The answer is yes! – We can cause the  healing to occur.   | 
        
        
          | And there is a medical explanation for  that – it involves our immune system that keeps our body safe from diseases  : | 
        
        
          | One of the main causes for diseases to  occur in our body is the malfunction of our immune system. | 
        
        
          | Some of the causes for this malfunction are:  daily stress situations, depression, mental stress, anxiety, lack of  satisfactory sleep etc. | 
        
        
          | That means that our mental state is deeply  affecting our medical situation and durability against diseases. | 
        
        
          | Stressed and depressed situations weaken  our body, cause sickness and make healing more difficult. | 
        
        
          | We all know how love and support helps sick  people recover from severe illness or medical operations – recoveries that  exceeds doctors' expectation etc. – this is the story – it is us helping us! | 
        
        
          Recovery does not mean that everything  will turn out all right – some things never will – but we have learn to live  with that!!!  | 
        
        
          | How Hezi Came out of Depression | 
        
        
          | When Hezi understood that recovery is something he has to do on his  own – he  took control of what was going on in his life – and the change occurred. | 
        
        
          How did it happen?  | 
        
        
          | Part of the triggers to this dramatic change in  Hezi's attitude were 2 books he read – both of ECKHART TOLLE : | 
        
        
          | 1. | 
          The Power of NOW – Tolle inspires to discover the freedom and joy of a life lived “in  the now". | 
            
 | 
        
        
          | Explanation: we condition our happiness on the past or on the future  i.e. – how can we be happy if this or that happened to us, done to us, said to  us… etc. (past) – or when, or if, we will have this or that – love, house, car,  job, career, success – we will be happy… (Future) | 
          
        
          | When we will realize that we can be happy only NOW – not yesterday or  tomorrow – we will make the change – we will leave the past for lessons  learning and future for plans making, without conditioning our happiness on it,  and enjoy Now – because Now is where our happiness exists. | 
          
        
          | A masterpiece with the power to change lives (that what it did to Hezi  & me….) |

          | 2. | 
          A New Earth   – Tolle's  expands  and shows that there is a way out of suffering but it must go through releasing  ourselves from identifying with it. Understand what our ego gains from  seeing ourselves as needy and unfortunate. | 
             | 
        
        
          | And how our attachment to the ego creates the dysfunction that leads to  anger, jealousy and unhappiness. |

          | ECKHART TOLLE, defined as a contemporary spiritual  teacher, tells his own story in his books, about the spiritual awakening &  change he made from the lowest point of depression & dysfunction – to find his  inner peace and greater fulfillment in his life. | 
        
        
          | I strongly recommend reading these books – not only  in depression cases – but for each one and one of us – they make a profound  change in our state of mind –understanding that happiness is in our reach &  own hands. | 
        
        
          | I happened to me & it happened to Hezi.  | 
        
        
          | These books have showed Hezi the way to make the  inward change and regain his strength – to help himself. | 
        
        
          How Hezi Helped himself to  Rehabilitate his Physical and Mental Situation :  | 
        
        
          | 1. | 
          He came out of depression – I  can tell that today – Hezi regards himself as a happy person. He enjoys the  great joys of life – our loving family, friends and living.  | 
        
        
          |   | 
          He  also learned to accept his disabilities. | 
          
        
          | 2.  | 
          He dropped 30 kg & keeps his new weight & healthy nutrition |

          Improved his Physical Dysfunction – click to read how  | 
        
        
          | 4. | 
          He is finally medically stable  - The series of diseases occurred from  age 50 to 56 – every few months another medical catastrophe has landed on him.  Since Hezi made the above change – 3 years ago –we cannot say that Hezi is  healed – as he still suffers from many diseases as mentioned above – but the  catastrophes stopped. He is medically stable. And each disease is well coped  with. | 
        
        
          |   | 
          His good mental situation, healthy nutrition & daily physical activity suited for his physical disabilities- keeps his medical situation stable and in a steady improvement course.   | 
        
        
          | Be well. |
