Wisdom of the Elders -- Dr. Paul Goss Interview

Most people have heard of the Master Cleanse. Most people have even heard of a signature product called CKLS. But few people know that they come from New Body Products, or that the creator of this 100% natural line of herbal products is Dr. Paul Goss.

Take some time to listen to this elder who has been practicing natural medicine for over 50 years. You will be glad you did. Just click on the title above.

***FYI, every single thing he says can be medically proven, so please don't take his easy, country tone as a sign of simplicity--take it in stride...


Biography

Dr. Paul Goss, founder and president of New Body Products, was the eighth child of ten born to Sam and Annie Goss in Canton, Georgia. He was raised in a company town called Alcoa, Tennessee.

He received the basis for an international education not in the poorly funded segregated school, but from two African Elders. Doc Mitchell, the Root Doctor and Ms. Bellamy, the Herb Lady. They were root workers, one who knew the value of herbs and how to apply them. Influenced by his teachers, Dr. Goss became an organic chemist for a large company after attending Stillman College in Alabama.

By 1965, he developed an impressive client base as he shared his self-taught knowledge of herbs and holistic healing. In 1976, he established NEW BODY PRODUCTS, maker of C.K.L.S, in Compton, California.

Using iridology for a diagnosis along with herbal remedies and vegetarian diets, Dr. Goss has helped people achieve the New Body they wanted through his unique application of ancient holistic healing.

Dr. Goss has lectured on holistic topics throughout the United States and abroad. He has written three books, Forever Young, The Natural Way, and The Rebirth of Gods. He is the key developer of Eden,, a holistic health resort in Arizona.

Today, NEW BODY PRODUCTS are distributed by hundreds of experienced holistic practioners as well as lay people throughout eighteen countries-- the U.S., the Caribbean, as well as Africa and Europe.

Words from the good doctor...

Taken from a Youth Summit in 2007...

...at the end, my 10-10-10 formula is as follows...

For optimum health, we must focus our attention:
10% on diet
10% on exercise
10% on rest...

and 70% on ATTITUDE!

Yes, this will determine more about your health, your lifestyle, the types of relationships you have and your income more than anything else.

Some people might say "You have an attitude!" but that is not what I mean here. We always have an attitude--the thing that shapes our ideas, beliefs, and in turn our expectations. What is your attitude? About health? About life? About relationships? About the three things I l said before (diet, rest & exercise)? Is it helping you or hurting you? Start there...

Back in the Public Eye...

Greetings to all who come to this site and may have checked in from time to time. Thank you so much for your continued support and patience as I graciously move through my next stage of growth, development, and expansion. Through my presentations, many of you have asked for a clearer picture of why The Whole Body Consultant always seems to be 'on the move, heading to another engagement?'

The answer is simple: from those who much is given, much is required. I love and appreciate the opportunity to reach people with a simple an tangible message of wellness. It's just that there are more opportunities to reach more people at once, and it is taking up more of my time. Here is a list of passions in pursuit for 2010:

I still conduct individual consultations, and the BLOODFIYAH! Juices are now only made for clients on a specific Whole Body Regimen. Contact me via email if you would like to schedule a personal, phone or Skype meeting.

Reaching elders through presentations at churches and social organizations. In these settings, those who are getting older in age learn specific actions they can take to maintain and even improve their vibrancy, alertness, and overall health.

Teaching "Sexual Health & Pleasure" classes to students (Divinity school students, no less) in universities across the country. It basically breaks down to two parts--Sexual Health and Healthy Sex. This is new material, and so far I've received no less than a '10' on any class review. One woman wrote "You were made to do this... This is your calling!" When then participants are thrilled with the material, it affirms my positive intention and inspires me to even greater heights. Send me an email if you want to know more...

Educating youth through my "Healthy Living & the Culinary Arts" classes. Subsequently I have become a liaison with the NY Food Bank. Through this effort, youth are empowered with social awareness, healthy living techniques, and recipes that are quick, inexpensive, and much healthier than their common 'fast food' dietary regimen.

Organizing the 'dome work' (as I used to call it) required to create these presentations, along with all of the wisdom I have gained by dealing with my clients, has left me with a treasure of information that I am now organizing into a volume of books. They will be simple, informative and practical--meaning you will have an opportunity to expand and improve your life with each one. Stay tuned.

Thank you again for your love, your light, your well wishes, for your challenging questions and emergent situations. All of those are times when I can feel myself gain more power, and receiving them makes me who I am today...

Peace and Light,

The Whole Body Consultant
