Preventative Men’s Health Tips WORDS ANNE ALECKSON
D
As a spiritual teacher who most often works with women, when the men’s health theme rolls around each year I don’t often know what to write about. Unfortunately, this year my contribution to the conversation is obvious, having recently had a close family member receive a diagnosis of bowel cancer. He is only 33 and one of the healthiest and fittest people I know. We have all been completely blindsided by this because he has always been and continues to look very, very healthy. So, my message here and in my column this month is an urging to men… particularly young men to please see a medical professional if you notice any of the symptoms of bowel cancer.

espite rarely needing to see a medical professional, as soon as he noticed symptoms that he had never experienced before, he immediately booked to see his doctor. I’m told this is most unusual for the majority of men who will often ignore the symptoms and never find the time to visit their GP. Early detection now means that after a bout of chemo, to treat the spread to his liver and a small bowel operation, he should be back on track and moving on with his life… as a healthy, young father. His medical team have advised that bowel cancer in a young man may be a condition that carries from father to son, and his sons will need to start testing by the time they reach their 20s. DID YOU KNOW? • Bowel cancer incidence rates among young people are increasing both in Australia and internationally. • There has been a 186% increase in bowel cancer cases in adolescents and young adults (15-24 years) over the past three decades. • Bowel cancer is the most common cause of cancer death for those aged 25-29, while bowel cancer and brain cancer are responsible for the greatest number of cancer deaths for those aged 30-34. • 15,352 Australians are diagnosed with bowel cancer each year, 1531 (10%) of whom are under the age of 50. Let’s look at dis-ease through the 5-step framework that I developed and work through with clients around health, emotional and all other issues.
Reclaim – Hurt, trauma and damage created as a by-product of living life cause a tearing away of aspects of soul and self so when we reclaim these parts of self and become whole by healing the trauma, we repair the physical manifestation of those hurts through emotional healing. Activate – When we activate the super-conscious mind we open the connection to our ‘inner healer’ and intuitively know what is required when it comes to our own healing and even better, prevention of disease. Create – Remembering that ‘everything that happens is a reflection or projection of what I think and believe I know about me and everything else (including cancer and health) I can do the inner work of changing my beliefs and thoughts which have created my reality. Master – Becoming the master over my personal energy frequency allows me to rise above and see the higher or bigger picture, allowing me to choose to ‘learn my lesson’ and no longer require the physical manifestation of dis-ease in my body. Embody – Recognising my connection to all that is, which leaves nothing out, I walk gently through life embodied of the frequency of the perfection that I already am (dis-ease cannot exist within perfection).
