In this self‑help video Aaron Doughty outlines three practical strategies he claims can accelerate personal healing. He begins by describing how releasing self‑imposed illness labels—exemplified by his own experience quitting Adderall after adopting meditation—can shift one’s identity and reduce resistance to health. The second strategy focuses on increasing bodily oxygen and alkalinity through deep, controlled breathing, specifically the Wim Hof method, which he practices daily to boost oxygenation and promote an alkaline internal environment. The third strategy emphasizes dietary changes: consuming nutrient‑dense, alkaline “live” foods (green vegetables, juices, ginger shots), drinking alkaline water, and staying hydrated to support cellular health. Throughout, Aaron references books such as Bruce Lipton’s The Biology of Belief and Mark Hyman’s The Ultramind Solution to support his claims, while repeatedly noting he is not a medical professional. The video concludes with typical YouTube calls‑to‑action and a mention of a PDF on top law‑of‑attraction books.

This video will show you 3 ways to heal yourself the fastest. I'm going to share with you ways that I've done it, ways that I've shared with other people that I've seen amazing results with. Welcome back to another video. My name is Aaron and I help people expand their consciousness. Now in this video, I'm going to be sharing with you the 3 things that if you do will make it much easier for you to let go of any labels that you might have towards feeling ill or really towards getting back to full health, understanding some daily activities that you, if you do, also little things that if you put into your diet will dramatically change the results that you get. Now, first off, when it comes to healing ourselves, I want to say that I believe we all have the ability to heal ourselves depending upon not only our mindset, but with how present we are able to become in the moment. Now the other side of this is understanding our diet, and this is just a generalized idea of the whole process, but what we put into our body literally becomes a part of us. They, you know, we put in the food, the molecules break down, we use some of it as energy, the rest of it becomes a part of us. So it's important in understanding this and really taking pride in what we put into our body because as we put in more nutrient-rich, dense foods, we will start to feel more alive. I think You put in live foods in your body, you feel alive. I think that's a great analogy because that was one thing that when I changed, changed absolutely everything. I started to eat much more nutrient-rich foods and from that point going on, everything began to change because I began to feel more vibrant. Now the first step to this process is going to be something that when I did, it changed everything when it came to the definitions that I have about who I am. You know, I used to have what is fundamentally called ADHD. Which is something that I was labeled as, uh, in my second or third year of high school. I went to a doctor, they gave me Adderall, took Adderall for about 4 or 5 years. And Adderall, the side effects of it are you don't eat very much, you don't sleep very much. So there were these harsh side effects. Now I realized that from identifying myself, part of my self-image was that I just had all this energy and that I needed Adderall because I had ADHD. And I realized that that belief, that definition perpetuated more and more of that uneasiness And it almost became like a self-fulfilling prophecy. So the game changer for me was when I learned how to meditate, which this was like 6 years ago, I think, and I learned how to meditate. And when I did that, I learned how to observe my thoughts and I learned how to become present to the moment. My thoughts started to slow down. And in that moment I realized that I no longer had to define myself as having ADHD and needing Adderall. And the moment I did that, in the moment I learned meditation, within 2 or 3 days completely got rid of Adderall, never taken it since. Now in that process, I learned how to observe my thoughts, and from observing my thoughts, I became aware that I had a belief that I had ADHD and that that belief was causing resistance and it was causing me to relate to myself in a certain way. From that moment on, I reframed it. I said instead of me having ADHD, meaning needing Adderall, I'm going to define myself as somebody that simply has a ton of energy and has to learn how to ground it or to balance it out. So from that point going forward, I meditated the first 20 minutes of my day and the last 20 minutes of my day every single day, and I never have had to take Adderall since, and I'll never take it again. Now, an important part of this process was letting go of the definition and the belief in my illness. So many times I see people— and let me first off say I'm not a doctor, so if you have some some type of disease or some type of illness, I'm not telling you to get rid of your medication. What I am saying is that become aware of what your definitions are and what your beliefs are around that symptom or around that, you know, effect that you have. And the reason I say that is because sometimes the solution could be to just lessen up those definitions, to let go of it being such a negative connotation. That negative connotation makes us feel so much negative resistance. So the moment you're able to let go of that label from your identity is the moment you start to have a new experience. Now, I have not been sick in about 6 years, and I think the reason that is, is one, I eat pretty healthy. I eat a lot of nutrient-rich foods. I drink a lot of alkaline water. I'm very active. I exercise every day and I breathe deep in meditation. You know, these things have allowed me to never get sick in the last 6 years. 6 years. Now the thing with this is that I just don't believe that I have to get sick, whereas a lot of people are like, oh yeah, I get sick over, you know, twice a year. I get allergies every season. The idea behind this is you can let that definition go. You can realize that that does not have to be a self-fulfilling prophecy for you. I believe, and they've showed this through books like The Biology of Belief, they've showed that the power of belief and that book's by Bruce Lipton, by the way. They show that the power of belief is so powerful that we can trick ourselves into having certain experiences because from a molecular level, our beliefs affect ourselves at that deep level. So what we must be able to do is to realize that not everything has to be that self-fulfilling prophecy. So what I did is I let go of believing I had to get sick a couple of times a year. I started to know that I could just be healthy and I could just decide the way that I prefer to be. And the first couple, like the first year of doing that and having that mentality, if any symptoms came on, I would just redirect my focus to being present to the moment, to allowing the moment to be, and I would transcend that feeling. And that's when everything began to change. So the first part of this process is one of the most powerful. Let go of any definitions you have about sickness, about illness. Let go. Allow them to be there if they are there. Observe the thoughts. Don't resist it because that resistance will cause more negative emotion. Any disease comes from being not at ease with who we are, with the moment we are in, and if we allow the moment to be, if we observe our thoughts and we let go of the identification, everything will begin to change. Now the second step to this has to do with simply breathing deeper. Now breathing deeper means that we increase the oxygen in our body. Think of oxygen as life. You'll notice that people, if you were to study the science, of people that become sick. People that become sick a lot normally have a deficiency of oxygen in their body from shallow breathing, from the diet they eat. But it's about understanding that if we breathe deeper, if we increase the oxygen levels in our body, we are also increasing the alkalinity in our body. Now this is science. When they've showed— there's somebody that won the Nobel Peace Prize for being able to prove that if you have an alkaline diet or if you're in an alkaline state, You cannot get cancer and you cannot get sick. Now this is something they showed when it comes to curing cancer. If you keep your body alkaline, you don't have to worry about that. And in the same way, if you increase the oxygen levels in your body, you will also increase the alkalinity, which means that you will feel better and you will be able to heal itself. The body is a complete unit that is always working to heal itself. If you get a scrape on your body, there are white blood cells that go in. There's ways the body tries to repair itself. Now in the same way, we must trust the process and knowing that the body will heal itself by also letting go of the definitions we have, but increasing the oxygen levels in the body. Now what I do for this, there's a couple of ways. The first way I do is I'll link the video below. It's the Wim Hof technique where what we do is we increase the oxygen in our body and we allow ourselves to really breathe deeply for about a minute. And then what we do is we let go of all that air and we hold our breath for about 2 minutes. Now this is something that I do every single day. It's so powerful for being able to increase the oxygen in my own body and I feel so different because of it. But realize that the more you're able to increase the oxygen, the healthier you will be, the more your healing mechanisms will kick into place and then you'll be able to heal yourself naturally. So increase the oxygen is so powerful. And then the third one has to do with simply your diet. What are you eating? There's a book called The Ultramind Solution by Mark Hyman. It's all about how the mind works in correlation to what we put into the body. If we put in deep fried foods, if we put in heavy meats and heavy foods, what happens is that affects our health, that affects our brain and how our brain works. And what we must learn to do is to put in nutrient-rich, dense foods. Also, This correlates with oxygen because the more alkaline foods we put into our body, the more live foods we put into our body, the more oxygen there will be. So this all goes in one level. This is all a symbiotic type relationship. So increase the amount of nutrient-rich foods into your body. Green foods are really good— spinach, kale, cucumber. Juicing is amazing. Anything that puts live foods, live enzymes into your body, you'll find you just feel feel alive. I like to do ginger shots. I like to do herbs. There's so many ways to go about this, but realize the more color it has, if it has a lot of green or reds, if it's vegetables, it's something that it's going to make you feel more alive. You're going to feel more oxygen because, because of it. Now the other side of this is water. So many people walk around and they're completely dehydrated with not drinking enough water. I drink— I'm going to say this and I do not recommend that people drink this much water. I do it because I'm so active. And I drink a certain type of water which absorbs in my body differently. I drink alkaline water and I drink about 2 gallons a day. Now I'd say that a gallon, uh, or close to a gallon a day is perfect. I'm not a doctor. I'm just saying that that's what I've observed in a lot of people because a lot of people see I drink 2 gallons a day and they're like, oh my God, I gotta drink more water. I'm not saying that so you drink 2 gallons of water a day. I'm just saying that I drink a lot of water a day because I go into a sauna for, you know, half an hour a day. I work out for about an hour a day, uh, and I just, I drink a lot of alkaline water. Alkaline water tends to absorb in the body differently because the water molecules are smaller and then it's also ionized at a negative charge. Our body's at a negative charge, so when I drink it, it absorbs in my body much better. So that's why I drink alkaline water. I found it to be so powerful. I believe that if I keep my body alkaline, I will naturally also stay healthy. So Realize you have the power to heal yourself. You don't need prescription drugs. You don't need these things, but if you do find that you need them, it's because of some type of belief in that. Now, I'm not a doctor. I'm not telling you to get rid of them. I am saying that what you can do is become aware of what your beliefs are. Become aware of any identification, any labels that you have, and start to look at them in a new way if you so choose. The other side of this is to increase the oxygen in your body by increasing your breath. Understanding that as you breathe deeper, you will feel better, and you could also do the Wim Hof technique, which I will link below. And then thirdly, increase the nutrient-rich foods you put in your body, and that will change just about everything. We literally become what we eat, so we must become more aware of what that is.
