Everyone wishes to be truly loved – and everyone deserves it. So how can this work? Creating a loving, lasting relationship works best when you can listen – to your gut-feeling, your intuition, your subconscious. In our fast paced, at times demanding and overwhelming environment, it can be tricky to listen. We make rational assessments, conscious decisions, driven by perception and ego. Unfortunately – it doesn’t reach the heart. 3D-Academy teaches about conscious expansion, reconnects, reinstates communication pathways in the brain and body, removes trauma, and heals your heart. Miracles are real.

Regenerate Your Knees
When your knees chronically hurt you are told they are a sign of aging and degeneration, which is very true … but did you know there is a method of treatment to regenerate your knees?

Chronic pain occurs in areas of the body that are especially vulnerable to the effects of decreased oxygen utilization and aging. Prolozone therapy with procaine, natural anti-inflammatory medications, vitamins & minerals and ozone gives the tissues what they need to heal. And as they heal, the circulation to the knees is re-established.

Why Am I So Sensitive to Loud Sounds?
People who have hearing loss will often say that despite not being able to hear well, louder sounds still irritate them. This sensation is called recruitment. As we age, the fragile hair cells in our inner ears start to degrade, but they don’t degrade evenly. Some of them remain functional and can still detect sound waves. These healthy cells get “recruited” to work in place of dying cells and respond forcefully, resulting in the sound feeling painful and uncomfortable.

What is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy?
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a practical, short-term form of psychotherapy. CBT focuses on challenging and changing unhelpful cognitive distortions and behaviors, improving emotional regulation, and the development of personal coping strategies that target current problems. CBT is “problem focused” (undertaken for specific problems) and “action-oriented” (therapist tries to assist the client in selecting specific strategies to help address those problems). This type of therapy has been demonstrated to be effective for a range of problems including depression, anxiety disorders, alcohol and drug use problems, marital problems, eating disorders and severe mental illness.
