SELF-ANALYSIS & TREATMENT
LEAN TESTING
by Janis M.Betz, RN, BSN
Lean Testing is a very valuable tool to
assist you in making the decisions necessary to treat yourself, which is your
constitutional right. This test helps
you to determine what foods, herbs, vitamins, and products are good for you, if
you need them, and how much of them you need.
It can also help you detect your deficiencies, under or over functioning
organs, glands, and tissues, joint displacements, and food intolerances.
Lean
Testing works the same way as Muscle Resistance Testing. To understand how the Lean Test and muscle
test work, you need to understand that your body is very electrical. Your nervous system transmits electrical
impulses throughout your body. Your brain
is a part of your nervous system, which sends and receives these electrical
impulses. Specifically, there are 8
nerves from your spinal column (T5-12) that come together at the front of your
lower chest area, which is called the Celiac Ganglion or plexus. This area contains a very dense concentration
of nerve fibers, which has a constant flow of "electrical" nerve
impulses to and from your brain. From
this ganglion, nerves disperse to your abdominal organs and tissues. This area is very sensitive to the electron
energy being emitted by every substance all around you.
Your "electrical" nervous system
will respond to the electron energy being emitted by a food or product when it
is held up to your nerve ganglion/plexus in your lower chest area. To understand electron energy, you need to
know that everything on earth and in the universe has its own specific
molecular/electron configuration. Energy
is being produced when electrons move around the nucleus of a molecule in a
substance (i.e. food, herb, chemical, clothing, etc.). This energy can be positive or negative, and
it causes a weakness or strength in your body.
It will also cause sickness or wellness.
The Lean Test works when you ask a question
about a food or product you are holding or you ask a question about what is
happening in your body, and your nervous system will respond by causing you to
lean back for no or lean forward for yes.
Your nervous system can do this because your brain knows every thing
that is happening in side your body. It
knows your nutritional deficiencies and your body weaknesses.
I learned of the Lean Test in 1998 when I
was reading a book called "Stop Your Tinnitus" by Phyllis Avery. This was a fairly technical book about
ringing in the ear. Halfway through the
book, the author was talking about food allergies as a possible cause and
proceeded to describe in one paragraph how you could find out if a food may be
causing your ears to ring. Though the
years, I found that not every one could do the Lean Test. I've been able to identify and correct these
interferences. To do the Lean Test do
the following:
1. Stand with your feet neutral
(shoulder width apart) and your body weight evenly distributed over your
legs.
2. Establish which way is
"YES" by asking the question "Which way is YES?" You will get a lean back or forward. "YES" should be forward. If you leaned backward, then your Central
Nervous System and/or Energy System are out of balance, and you are "poled
backward." To correct you Central
Nervous System and Energy System balance follow steps 4 and 5 under the topic
on Lean Testing Interferences.
3. If you get no lean at all,
then review and eliminate any interference that may be a cause. See the list of Lean Testing Interferences.
4. Hold the food/product in
front of you. Ask yourself, “Is this
______ beneficial/good for me?” Your
nervous system will draw you forward for yes or backward for no. Lack of movement means neutral. If you get a sideways lean or bobbing, ask
the question differently or more specifically.
5. You can use the Lean Test to
find out if you need a supplement and how much you need. Hold the supplement in front of you and ask,
"Do I need this ______?” If your
nervous system leans you forward, then you can ask more specific questions as
to the amount you may need, such as “Do I need 1 tablet a day?” You would continue to ask various amounts
until you get a lean backward. At this
point, you would take the amount that your nervous system last leaned forward
for. When your Autonomic Nervous System
is out of balance, your dose will be high.
6. You can use the Lean Test to
try to figure out what is going on in your body. If you are having pain or a problem in a part
of your body, ask, "I am having pain/problem in my __________ (location),
Why?" "Is it
__________?" Keep asking questions
until you get a forward "YES" lean.
Then you can use the Lean Test to figure out how to correct the pain or
problems, i.e. change in diet, take a supplement, etc. For example, "I have pain/discomfort
between my shoulder blades, Why?"
Is it my stomach? Is it my spine?
Is it my gallbladder? Etc…. When you
identify what the problem is then Lean Test the remedy. If you leaned yes for gallbladder, ask
"Should I do a Liver/Gallbladder Flush?" "Should I take Beta TCP?"
Etc…. The best Anatomy and Physiology
book that is easy to read and understand is a DK book called HUMAN BODY. The ISBN # is 0-7894-7988-5. You can use this book to help you identify
your problem or pain.
Lean
Testing Interferences
I
have discovered that the following eight issues may interfere with the Lean
Test results: These interferences
need to be rectified.
1) Negative, skeptical attitude. Doubt
2) Wearing synthetic clothing, which will weaken you and
interfere with your nervous system's function and response. Remove your shoes and any synthetic fiber
clothing, i.e. polyester, etc.
3) Energy depletion or lack of
strength
due to physical illness or nutritional deficiency. Taking the supplement Emer'gen C will restore
your energy and strength.
4) Energy System imbalance. You have energy pathways that may be
congested or shut down, which may skew the Lean Test. You will need to see a practitioner who knows
how to do NervEnergy Balancingä to correct the Energy
System imbalance.
5) Central Nervous System
imbalance. Ask which way is "yes". If you get a backward lean, your Central
Nervous System is out of balance, which is caused by battery operated devices
next to your body, i.e. watch, cell phone, etc., or having poor quality metal
next to your body, i.e. glasses, earrings, and jewelry. Remove these items. Body piercing is a major interference and
should never be worn. Poor posture and
poor back alignment are interferences.
Stand straight with your buttocks pulled in and shoulders pulled
back.
6) Autonomic Nervous System
(ANS) imbalance. Ask if your Autonomic Nervous
System is balanced. If you get a
"no" lean backward, then balance it, i.e. take N-Acetyl Cysteine, and
put Vit. E oil on scars. You may need to see an experienced practitioner
who knows how to do System Balancing and Analysis (SBA) or Autonomic Resistance
Testing (ART) to correct your ANS imbalance.
7) Powerful electrical-magnetic
fields
(EMF) near you in your environment, i.e. power lines, computers, operating
appliances, etc. Lean Test if EMFs are
interfering with your testing.
8) Magnetic disturbances
underground. You may be able to detect underground
magnetic disturbances by standing and asking if there is a magnetic disturbance
under you. If lean yes, take a big step
backward or forward and ask again. If
lean yes again, take a big step to either side.
You do not want to test or sleep in this area. If this does not work for you and there are
no other interferences and you feel your Lean Test is skewed, and then move to
another location and try the Lean Test again.
Finger
Resistance Test
There
are several finger resistance tests that you can do. Strength = YES and weakness = NO.
Finger
Pull Test:
1. Make an "OK" sign
with your fingers (index finger and thumb meet together to make a ring. Now loop the two "OK" signs
together like when you make a paper ring garland for the Christmas tree. The index finger and thumb meet within the
space of the other index finger and thumb ring.
2. Try to pull your fingers
apart to break through the bond of the ringed fingers. You should have a lock with equal strength
and not break through. You can also just
use the hooked index finger of you dominant hand to try to break through and
separate the fingers of your non-dominant hand.
3. Designate which hand will
weaken, which is usually the non-dominant hand.
Ask the question "What is NO?"
You should be able to break through the bond of the non-dominant hand
finger ring. Don't squeeze your fingers
too tight. You just want to break through
a locked finger ring. Now ask,
"What is YES?" You should not
be able to break the finger ring bond.
Finger/Nail
Rub Test:
Rub
your thumb over your index finger and middle finger like you're making a sign
for money or rub your index finger over your middle finger's nail. Smooth means "YES" and tackiness
means "NO." Ask the questions
and feel the response.
You
can use the finger tests in place of or in conjunction with the Lean Test.
