21 Day Balance 4

21 day clean, purge, balance
13 April 2020 Day 18 (Balance 4) – Perception
Welcome to Day 18 (Balance 4) – Holding a perception that supports the story you want to hold.
The mind influences every cell in the body, by consciously focusing attention and changing behaviors we can decrease biological age, weakness, and lack of immunity. Modern science is verifying the role of thoughts and our perception of the environment/events on the production of hormones, proteins and the unfoldment of our body. Dr. Bruce Lipton says that Epigenetic’s verifies that based on our perception of the environment a single DNA blueprint for “a” protein can make 30,000 different proteins to dynamically adapt to the environment we find ourselves in. They have found some individuals born with defective genes are able to turn on production of proteins to restore functioning of the body even thought the gene is defective.
So how we think about our life and events is very important. Dr. Lipton says: Our thoughts can heal us or our thoughts can kill us. How do you act on this information?
1) Work with Dr. Rivene or an NET doctor for the most rapid and direct ways to change beliefs and start to develop healthy behaviors. Dr. Rivene works with all her patients to tease out hidden and dangerous beliefs and perceptions. As they surface the Net processes remove the charge (neutralizing the old belief) and a new healthier belief is adopted. Jim experienced this first-hand about twenty years ago when Dr. Rivene found a time bomb that was set to trigger in his mid fifties that probably would have caused a heart attack. He did the work to reverse it and still felt a little release of energy in the mid fifties that was mild and life affirming instead of a heart attack. (break in letter)
2) And identify perceptions and beliefs you have that don’t suit you. Craft healthier stories you want to live and use tapping (link on website) to install them into your subconscious. Tap the affirmations Dr. Rivene gives you and maybe some affirmations you like below or that you make:

21 Day Balance 3

12 April 2020 Day 17 (Balance 3) – Play
Welcome to Day 17 (Balance 3) – Reclaiming the openness and wonder of playing in the world.
Play is a vital element of recreating ourselves on a daily basis. Watch young children playing and you’ll see the free spirited openness, wonder, innocence, and delight they approach the world with. Adopting the characteristics as an adult can counter the years of restriction and limitations we have adopted through our life lessons in fitting in with peers, business, and so on.
Today find something that allows you to feel childlike characteristics for instance: flexible, open, joyful, spontaneous, creative, fearless, agenda less, take the road less travelled, taking risks (physical and emotional), remembering your inner child, self-investigating, and just being. Choose one thing that helps you remember and be childlike (ask your inner girl or boy what she or he would like to do) and do it today and choose something to do every day that reminds you and reconnects you to this part of yourself. Perhaps it is eating your favorite food (ice cream, popcorn), jumping rope, climbing a tree, dancing, walking in nature, gardening, coloring a picture, people watching, or whatever. Dr. Rivene likes to ask her inner little girl and saw a room filled with helium balloons with dangling strings that she feels caress her as she walks through the room.
Whatever you decide approach it with courage, from joy, wonder, no agenda or concern, no limits, no restrictions, and revel in the joy of just being – loving yourself and loving the experience. Resting in the place of yourself that just is, always present, without striving, comparing or directing that loves you just as you are in the moment. Play in the freedom of your garden of delight a little each day. God or Source has created the Universe as our playground to investigate and to self-investigate which allows us to become who we mean to be. Through play we try on our roles in happiness and bring them from imagined play to fruition in ourselves and the world.
Take Away (Balance 3): Adopting the characteristic of child-like play as an adult keeps your mind and body flexible, young and spontaneous. It renews mind/body and reverses the aging process.
Practice this for 21 days to see the effects first hand. Continue the practices from previous days for the entire program to fully experience the benefits.

21 Day Balance 2

21 day clean, purge, balance
11 April 2020 Day 16 (Balance 2) – Food to Balance
Welcome to Day 16 (Balance 2) – Eat well; increase wellness, feel centered, and healthy when you eat for life.
“If you eat living food, the same will quicken you, but if you kill your food, the dead food will kill you also. For life comes only from life, and from death comes always death.”
Essene Gospel of Peace
You are what you eat. In modern times this reminds us to focus on living foods that renew and revitalize the body and avoid dead foods that accelerate aging and increase entropy (disorder). Dr. Rivene has always taught patients to eat “Love” foods, those alive with life force, and avoid “Fear” foods, foods devoid of life. Eliminate canned, frozen, preserved foods, micro-waved, old, and highly processed foods preferring fresh fruits, nut, grains, and vegetable in season, and freshly prepared foods as close to nature as possible.
Alive (love based foods)* Dead (fear based foods)
Fresh in season and local fruit, vegetables, nuts, seeds, legume, Living water (from fresh squeezed juice consumed after squeezing) Canned, bottled, frozen, preserved, micro-waved, processed, meat, artificially flavor, sodas, candies, etc.
Freshly prepared foods leftovers
Eat from the rainbow of colors to insure a range of anti-oxidants and micro-nutrients.
Eat the Colors of the Rainbow
Red: Tomatoes, watermelon, radicchio, peppers, red grapes, beets, red cabbage, strawberries, currants
Orange/yellow: Squash, carrots, peppers, sweet potato (yam), pumpkin, papaya, mango, peach, nectarine
Green: Spinach, Swiss chard, green figs, broccoli, kale, peas, avocado, greens, cabbage, watercress, rocket
Purple/blue: Plums, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, eggplant w/ skin
To fit the needs of your body’s constitution (dosha) eat all six tastes sweet, sour, salty, pungent, bitter, and astringent at meals (join our Happy Foods (link) class in May to learn more or sprinkle your food with your dosha churna (link) available at the office).
Eat all six tastes to balance your body
Sweet, salty, and sour to tonify in moderation, excess lowers metabolism. Rice, squash, celery, sea weed, lemon, fermented foods, etc.
Pungent, bitter, and astringent to reduce inflammation and increase metabolism. Radishes, peppers, spinach, greens, lentils, lettuce, mustard greens and powder, ginger, etc.

Practice this for 21 days to see the effects first hand. Continue the practices from previous days for the entire program to fully experience the benefits.
Take Away (Balance 2): Eat real living food (like nature provides) in all colors, and the six tastes for abundant balanced life force.

Dr. Rivene specializes in advanced chiropractic and natural healing techniques and focuses on restoring alignment between the patient and their true self. She loves to help people feel healthier and have more life force so they can be all that they are. Dr Rivene is a specialist in restoring structural and emotional integrity for more than thirty five years. She loves working with Family chiropractic (baby to grandparents and the dog too!),  couples on fertility, turning retirement years into re-createment for the best decades of your life, achieving the best health at any age and reversal of chronic illness.

“All dis-ease starts with a thought,”

Dr. Rivene.

The thought creates a misalignment between the true self and the egoic self. This is the original cause:  we find it, reverse the thought to create alignment and then empower you with diet, lifestyle and self-care tools so that true healing begins and remains. This is the engramic charge of your current condition that we collapse to release ourselves into the field of all potentiality and the creation of a new quantum wave of possibility that better suits the establishment of your wellness and goals. My unique approach requires that you want and are willing to make changes in your life and mental processes in order to create the greatest spirit-mind-body-emotional contribution to your lives and the world (this is participatory medicine you drive the change rather than the current orthodox role where the doctor does it to you).

What is Chiropractic?

ChiropracticChiropractic removes subluxations which are interferences to the nervous system, arising from structural mis-alignment of joints and systems of the body that occur through physical, environmental, biochemical and emotional traumas which are part of everyday life. Without correction through Chiropractic adjustment, these interferences reduce the life force that animates the body, reduces range of motion and leads to many labeled diseases. The Chiropractic adjustment allows for the restoration of the life force energy to flow freely throughout the body, restoring vitality and healing capacity. It works through the alignment of skeletal, nervous, endocrine and other body systems to provide mind, body and spiritual integrity of the individual.

Quantum Healing for Cancer and Chronic Illnesses and Healthy People looking for wholeness and longevity

Dr Rivene has been treating Cancer patients and other labelled diseases for over thirty five years and has developed a unique system (the four part program) that re-establishes a solid foundation of health through basic structural chiropractic techniques to realign the structural body and then move on more to advanced concepts and techniques to re-instill biochemical food integrity, de-sensitize environmental allergens/poisons; and remove emotional components including old programming.  For cancer, many chronic illnesses, and rejuvenation we use the Gerson technique for detoxification and nutritional re-building that creates functional changes in the body that support re-growth of all cells of the body, re-establishment of proper sodium/potassium balance, acid/alkaline balance  and the shrinking of tumors and other growths in the body. Dr. Rivene is currently the only Gerson therapist in South Africa recognized by the Gerson Institute.  Weeklong or longer residential stays at the ranch are encouraged to adopt and learn the new lifestyle additions, new cooking techniques, diet, supplementation, de-toxification and self-care tools.

The Four Part Program “Your thought rules your biology,”  Dr. Rivene

The Four Part Program
“Your thought rules your biology,”
Dr. Rivene

The Red Roan Ranch Retreat is where cancer and chronic disease patients come to experience themselves (their true selves) by taking the inward journey to unravel old patterns, perceptions, beliefs and emotions that have manifested into a disease. Realigning your core beliefs with your true self. We do the Gerson therapy in foods, juices, coffee enemas and supplements as the nutritional pathway that accounts for 25% of the program. I work with Dr. Kayla Smith of the Gerson Institute in San Diego with specific cancer patients for continual research.

The core program continues to providethe next  50% of the program with Dr. Rivene providing: 1) Structural revamping of the central nervous system, the brain, spinal cord and a reorganization and re-connection of all bones, organs, muscles structures and reflexes with Chiropractic techniques that flood the Vital Life force to every cell of the body.  2) We then identify environmental allergies from drugs, vaccines, inhaled toxins and poisons, food intolerance and activate the body’s natural detoxifying processes to move it out of the cells and the body.

The final 25% of the program is the number one reason for creating any and all dis-ease, your emotional beliefs, perceptions and thoughts. Your thought rules your biology. We do emotional release work using the extremely effective Neuro-Emotional Techniques developed by Dr. Scott Walker. When the patient owns all four parts the structural revamping, environmental allergy work, emotional release and the gerson therapy miracles happen. Dr. Max Gerson called it Totality, all parts come together as one.

These intensive programs are usually done with the patient coming to stay 1-2-3-4 weeks depending on their condition. Read More

Healing the totality

True Healing requires alignment of body, mind, emotion and spirit. Coupled with structural, biochemical, environmental, emotional integrity and alignment of beliefs with the True Self.

healing-the-totality

As early as the 1920’s Dr. Max Gerson determined the proper approach for healing was to treat the totality of the patient.

The weeklong and longer stays

The intensive programs are intended for patients who want to insure long term wellness and health. It is ideal for those who are 1) basically healthy and want to achieve superior and long lasting wellness, or 2) diagnosed with a chronic illness and want to re-establish the body’s natural immune and regenerative capacity quickly to support the healing and removal of the root cause of their disease and create healthy lifestyle habits for the long term so that re-lapses are minimal.

The intensive program incorporates the four part program in an accelerated manner where we can often take the patient through the 19 step NOT  foundational program or continue your program in a week, teach the patient the basics of the Gerson food, detox and supplementation program for continued rebuilding of the body, the gerson cooking methods, self-care practices (such as yoga, pranayama, meditation, water therapy and more as need), educational programs to assist in creating a shift in beliefs and understanding the new biology, quantum energetic healing,  mental mastery of the creation (healing) process, new hope (goals) and more.

The program is all inclusive with two hours per full day intensive care with Dr. Rivene,  5 star accommodation, juicing, food, coffee enemas, beginning supplements, daily yoga, massage therapy, meditation, nightly educational programs, learning food preparation, appropriate lifestyle adjustments and other therapies as needed for your specific condition.

Massage, Reflexology and Personal Assistant to Dr. Rivene

Massage therapy uses the most familiar, accessible technology known to humanity and we call it HANDS. Touch is our very first language before speech. Our amazing body stores a memory of every single moment of physical contact received from another human being from the moment we are conceived.

Touch is innate, touch is ancient and occupies a very special place in our hearts and imagination. With touch a current of communication is created between the therapist and the recipient as they come together with the co-intention of healing. The intention of the therapists is to comfort the pains and aches absorbed by the body and the recipient to let aches go. Massage therapy applies our first language which it is why it is such a successful therapy to use for so many physical and mental conditions. Tiffany Field, Director of the Touch Research Institute at The University of Miami, concluded that “Massage has had a positive effect on every medical condition we’ve looked at”.

Benefits include. increasing the immunity, simulating detoxification, decreases pain, relaxes the body, lifts the spirit, helps stimulate circulation, increases joint flexibility and reduces spasms and cramps. My favourite benefit of massage therapy is to evoke more self awareness. Our bodies know how to heal itself we just have to remember. Massage is “To remind us that our bodies communicate to us clearly and specifically, if we are willing to listen”— Shakti Gawain.

I love massage therapy. I love my work and look forward to being of service to you. Take care of your spirit and body treating your-self to a massage. Blessings upon you, Lana Schreiber, Receptionist and Massage Therapist
