It was always me who blocked my life.

Description
Book Introduction
A physicist who lived solely on science
Learn the truth about life from Australian Aboriginal people!
Gary Holtz, a physicist who had built a reputation in the American aerospace industry, was diagnosed with a rare, incurable disease called multiple sclerosis one day, like a bolt from the blue.
His condition gradually worsened, and he was eventually paralyzed from the waist down, becoming unable to function without a wheelchair. When doctors finally told him that he had no chance of recovery, he completely lost his direction in life.
His life of pursuing only reason and logic has been completely shattered, and he realizes for the first time that he is faced with a pain that science cannot explain.
How vain and imperfect everything he had relied on was.
One day, as if by fate, a woman appears to him while he is wandering in confusion and despair and tells him about the ancient healing methods of the Australian Aborigines.
It was a story that could neither be explained nor easily believed, but with nothing left to lose, he headed to Australia.
But to my disappointment, the first explanation I heard from an Australian Aboriginal healer seemed so unscientific.
However, since his illness was incurable with modern medicine, he went on a healing journey with a healer in the hope of grabbing at straws, and soon after, miraculous things began to happen to him.
The legs that had been unable to move began to move, and the organs that had been broken down throughout the body began to regain vitality.
The story in this book is 100% true.
Through this book, readers will come to a keen understanding of how living without reflecting on one's own life can lead to illness, how the body and mind are interconnected, and why the wisdom of the ancients is essential even in modern life.

Into the book
For a long time I believed that my illness was blocking my life.
But as time went by, I came to know.
The real obstacle has always been myself.
The fear, the avoidance, the unwillingness to face the hurt within me, and the attitude of delaying the courage to accept healing.
This book is about how I broke down those walls one by one and accepted myself again.
--- p.16
“We all live with something about ourselves that we find difficult to face.
But true healing does not occur if we ignore them.
Only when we accept ourselves completely and unconditionally can change begin.
Recovery is possible the moment you stop turning away from the truth.”
--- p.121
Some people are afraid of feeling emotions.
When painful emotions arise, these people just ignore them and let them pass by, pretending that nothing happened and that everything is fine.
But such evasion is never the answer.
Uncomfortable feelings don't go away no matter how hard you try to ignore them.
The healthiest response is to honestly acknowledge the feeling and examine what message it conveys.
Through the process of dealing with and accepting your own emotions, your mind gradually recovers.
--- p.150
According to the Law of Attraction, the things I've attracted so far are multiple sclerosis, a failed marriage, and estranged children.
I felt reluctant to admit it, as it seemed to clearly show that I had not been focusing on the right things.
But now I have the opportunity to make a different choice.
It's an opportunity to train my mind to point in the right direction and think good thoughts.
This way I can attract good things.
--- p.162
Was I supposed to love this disease that disabled me? This disease that paralyzed me and threatened death? I couldn't figure out how I could accept it and love it.
But I said to myself, as if I were affirming something.
“I'd be willing to try.
Because that's all I can do right now.
So I'm willing to give it a try."
--- p.201
The moment I began to regain my senses was the true moment when I crossed the threshold from the sentence of death and returned to life.
I knelt on the dirt floor of the back room.
My heart seemed to be overflowing with love.
And I realized that my life and my multiple sclerosis have been trying to teach me this all along.
To teach us that even though life is tragic and painful, there is still beauty and perfection to be found within it.
--- p.257
Healing doesn't happen overnight.
It just keeps going because of the choices I make every moment.
I learned through the process of feeling better, then feeling pain again, then mustering up all the strength I had to get back up, and then collapsing again.
The walls that block my life were ultimately built within me, and the power to break them down must also be cultivated within me.

Publisher's Review
A miraculous true story translated and published in 44 countries around the world.
The author of this book, Gary Holtz, was a physicist who believed in science more than anyone else.
Leading research and development in the aerospace industry, he believed that all the world's problems could ultimately be solved through technology.
The author's life was completely shaken after he was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, an incurable disease.
The moment he was given a terminal diagnosis, the world he had relied on his entire life could no longer sustain him.
Faced with suffering that cannot be explained by numbers, data, or precise engineering thinking, the author begins to question for the first time.
Have the things I've believed in up until now truly been able to protect my life?
What he found then was not medicine or science, but the Australian outback.
In despair, where life seems to be at a standstill, the author hears the story of a woman he meets by chance and, desperate for any hope, sets out to seek out Aboriginal healers.
And there, for the first time, he is forced to confront the past life he had been ignoring, and through the healing methods of the natives, he realizes that the real reason for his illness was none other than the way he had been suppressing himself.
The story in this book is 100% based on a true story, and the touching stories in it have been translated and published in 44 countries thanks to the enthusiastic support of readers around the world.
Through the author's moving story, readers will reflect on their own lives and realize how important it is to take care of themselves.
Confessions of an Internationally Acclaimed Scientist
"It Was Always Me Who Blocked My Life" received worldwide attention as a finalist for three major American publishing awards, including the Nautilus Book Award, the Forward Book of the Year Award, and the USA Book News Best Book Award. Immediately after its publication, it proved its value with enthusiastic sympathy and praise from readers who said, "This is the book I definitely want to give to myself during my difficult times."
This book is not simply a record of overcoming physical illness.
It reveals the truth of life that can only be obtained by those who honestly face their inner wounds, and shows that life can change and grow at any time through the process of healing the wounds of the heart.
The author, who for a long time viewed the world through strict reason as a scientist, honestly confesses that he was broken by inexplicable pain when he was given a terminal diagnosis.
And the subsequent healing experience leads us to reflect on the root causes of the emotional and physical pain we experience in our daily lives.
Readers of this book will realize that the real obstacles that block life are not external, but internal, and that the power for true healing and recovery lies within.
The process of inner healing that has caught the attention of the American counseling community.
The book has also received rave reviews from psychological experts for its clear case studies of the connection between repressed emotional wounds and physical symptoms.
In particular, the five-step healing method presented in the book has been highlighted as a self-healing method that can be practiced in everyday life.
In fact, experts in the American counseling field have evaluated this book as 'the text that most realistically shows the causal relationship between emotional suppression and physical illness', and it is widely used in clinical and counseling settings.
The reason why "It Was Always Me Who Blocked My Life" continues to receive attention in the American counseling community is because the author did not simply dismiss the healing process he experienced in his own life as a personal experience, but developed it into a universal healing model that anyone can refer to and apply.
This book serves as a practical guide for each reader to explore their inner selves, listen to their emotions and body signals, and find direction in life. It also serves as a motivational book that empowers them to face any physical or mental pain without despair.
