#107 - Transmute Your Body into a Powerhouse: It's Very Hard to Transmute Your Mind and Spirit with a Toxic and Tired Body

Author: James Arthur Ray May 3, 2024 Duration: 7:40

A very important part of all alchemical training—in fact, a very important part of life—is developing true and complete health.

It's very difficult to be mentally and spiritually attuned when your body is worn out, toxic, and tired.

Having a healthy body is a somewhat complex topic and for this very reason, obesity is one of the major causes of death in the United States.

According to Clinical Medicine, excess weight was responsible for more than 1300 excess deaths per day (nearly 500,000 per year) and a loss in life expectancy of nearly 2·4 years in 2016, contributing to higher excess mortality than smoking.  This is crazy.

If this was all there was, then this would certainly be more than enough but it's even more complex than that. 

Remember true alchemy is the art and science of transmutation. To take something of low value and transmute it into something of high value. So, in this episode we're going to discuss how to transmute a toxic unhealthy body into a healthy one.

We'll cover a large range of topics from diet to exercise, to toxins and substances, even good sleep. 

We truly hope this is valuable for you and our prayer is that it lengthens your life in long and prosperous ways.

Let me just state: there is so much talk in today's world about "making a difference". If you're someone who wants to have an impact and make a difference in the world then please know, you have to be around a long time to do this—because frankly—it takes a long time to truly make a difference in the world. There is no quick fix...
