INTRODUCTION
My name is Romy. People usually put a Doc in front of my name but as

this book says we are all doctors, we would end up giving everyone the
same title anyway.
My training to become a medical doctor was in one of the biggest

university hospitals in the country. For almost 10 years of rigorous
schooling in one of the biggest training hospitals in the Philippines, I
had to invest tremendous time and effort in learning the arts of medical
science:
First, I learned the Art of Prescribing. Second, I trained in the Art of

Treating Symptoms. Third, I studied the Art of Segregating the human
body into many categorical specializations. This art goes something like
this – the cardiologist cares for the heart, the nephrologists nurture the
kidneys, the lungs are proprietary to pulmonologists, gastroenterologists
go for the liver and stomach, and the brain is branched to neurologists.
I have also learned the art of segregating the human body into disease
classifications. If cancer was your career, you became an oncologist;
if diabetes and thyroid disorders were your desire, you would enjoy
endocrinology; if skin disorders were your delight, you would be deemed
a dermatologist; if auto-immune diseases and allergies appealed to you,

In Chapter 3, I offer four Bottom-line Causes of Illness and in Capther 5

and 6, a set of four corresponding Bottom-line Solutions to Illness.
3 | The Roots of Illness
One of my tasks in medical school was to memorize all the diseases of

the human body.
They ranged from the simple to the most complicated. From the
common cold, to systemic lupus erythematosus, I learned hundreds
of ailments that could possibly cripple or afflict the human physical
body. They were words ascribed to what the scientific and medical
community use to nail down a set of symptoms, which, filtered through
the scientific method of observation, could then be matched with a
corresponding solution.
Despite the complexity of this immense list, which number to more than
a few thousands, there are only actually two bottom-line root causes
for almost all diseases. This may make little sense from a linear way
of thinking but there are many integrative doctors in the world who are
simplifying the more fixed specializations of medicine onto more basic
holistic fundamentals.
In regards to sickness, there are two root causes which sum up and
simplify health in a way that can only empower both doctor and patient
to bring about self-healing:
1.) Toxicity – In the simplest sense, toxicity means that there is
something in the body that is not supposed to be there. In Filipino,

5 | Bottom-line Medicine
To go with the two bottom-line roots of illness, there corresponds two

bottom-line solutions to curing them: Purgation and Nourishment.
For this chapter, we will devote our attention to Purgation, leaving

Nourishment for the next, which could in fact be a whole book
altogether.
Purgation is the direct solution to the root problem called toxicity.

Though it sounds basic, it is essential that we simplify a compounded
problem to clear a pathway to the most fundamental yet powerful
wisdom. The goal of purgation is to access the inner power that exists
inside of us. Toxicity hampers our ability to metabolize and physically
evolve when we instead relegate our life force towards digesting toxicity.
The more we are overwhelmed with handling toxins, we age, degenerate
and succumb to disease.
To purge toxins and anything else unnecessary we take into the body,
there are just a few basic elements to physical toxicity we need to
know as a guide for anyone doing self-purgation. To purge is to cease
the intake, at least for a time, of toxins. This gives the body a chance in it, the vitamins and nutrients that were in it. What is left is

6 | Nourishment
What is true nourishment?

What does it mean to nourish the body, the mind and our soul?
The etymological root of the word nourish, comes from the old 13th
century French word, “noriss,” which means to bring up a child, or
nurture a deep sense of feeling.
Without nourishment, the human body ages quickly. Like a plant,

it wilts. If a child is neglected, abused and left unloved, they will
experience the effects of this neglect until old age. They will feel
undernourished on many levels.
As with toxicity, deficiency, purgation, we understand by now that

nourishment happens on all the levels.
To nourish the body, we are asked to intake foods coming from the most
symbiotic organisms suitable for humans. These are plants.
Plants feed us. They are our perfect symbionts. They provide food in
the form of fruits and in return, we must take the seeds from the fruits

7 | The Conditions for Healing
In my energy healing work, I’ve witnessed many chronic conditions

believes successful healing necessitates great amounts of expenditure
and time, I beg to differ. I’ve seen simplicity heal things chemical
complexity and multifarious machines could not.
In this chapter, let us look at the conditions on how the simplest forms
of healing do happen. Mainly, let’s look at the principles by which some
people are able to heal whilst others do not, irrelevant of how much
money, medicine and expensive operations they can afford.
In Energy Consciousness, our body is the storage mechanism, a big

receptor and storehouse for all the vibratory beliefs we hold onto.
Basically, we are everything we have ever experienced, perceived, created
and chosen. In common parlance, the storage system is called memory,
which has dimensions on the personal, the cultural and the universal.
Science has been studying the mysteries of human memory and the
findings are astounding. We are coming into the wisdom that the body
is holographic on an astonishing degree. There are findings of our ability
to store even the most minute details of everything we experience,
and this incredible holographic memory ultimately forms personality,

8 | Energy Management Principles
There are five energy management and healing principles that can help
to shift a person’s stories of separation, into the stories of connection,
the stories of unity.
They are the five C’s: “energy consumption, energy competition, energy
conservation, energy conversion and energy conversation.”
Let’s start with the first principle.

1.) Consumption
When we derive our power from external sources, we consume
energy the way a car might need gasoline in order to run. We
require a certain degree of food, money, entertainment, comfort,
belongingness, security, self-esteem and love in order to survive and
thrive.
This accounts for the greater level of stress and disease we

are seeing in the world. According to the American Medical
Association, one out of every two people in America will be
diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. This tendency doesn’t just

published by Shephard's Voice Publications. His integrative medical work is based in
Cebu City, Philippines where he resides with his wife, Dr. Mila, and thier son, Michael.
Pi Villaraza left the corporate world of advertising and

marketing to undertake a vision quest around the
Philippines where he walked around Mindanao without
money for one year, ending up as a hermit in a deserted
beach in an island in Northern Palawan. In this place
called Kalipay Beach, he came into his personal healing
eating mostly just coconuts, which led to his discovery of a powerful vibration that
awoke within him.
In the years after this, he has brought the healing energy to more than ten thousand
people from over 40 nationalities, founding a successful international detox centre in
Puerto Princesa and an international healing eco-village in Bacungan, Palawan. His work
has been reported in media in Europe, America and all over Asia, where he extensively
travels to give advanced energy awareness trainings and to assist in the formation of
healing centres in some large cities around Asia.
He has extensively worked with medical practitioners, schools, government and NGO
agencies, corporations and many institutions around the world, not just in healing but
also in progressive education, deep ecology, raw food nutrition, organic food production,
community development and sustainable architecture. He is an active environmentalist
and is the former Philippine ambassador for the Global Eco-Village Network. His well-
received book Conscious Trance is available in bookstores around the Philippines.
