Below is section 7 of the vaccinosis toolkit ebook.
<strong>
I'd love to start a discussion specifically about what it says when used in the context of Lyme prevention.
Especially as it relates to the HMDM, vitality and balance framework. </strong>

Holistic Medical Decision Making (HMDM) will help you make mindful vaccination decisions such as:
Whether to give vaccines other than the legally-required rabies. And if so, when.
How to build vitality and health so your pets develop natural immunity. They can then have the best possible quality of life.
HMDM helps you make healthful decisions for your pets.
The tools of HMDM (Appendix I) enable you to put your pet’s symptom clues into the context of overall health and interpret them holistically. These tools include the BEAM symptoms. They are a direct measure of vitality and balance. You can use them everyday to closely monitor internal health and vitality.
They help you decide whether this is a safe time to give any required vaccinations. And then how to prevent vaccinosis.
Here’s a brief summary of the HMDM method:
Step 1. Define Your Goal - is it to give a vaccine and prevent vaccinosis, or proactively improve overall health and prevent vaccinosis?
Step 2. Research - Your pet’s body is the best place to start. Then you can move on to researching all of your possible options using information from reliable sources.
Step 3. Paws, Reflect Then Implement - based on your research and trusted advice you may delay vaccination using titers and nosodes, give the vaccine and work to avoid vaccinosis, treat the rabies miasm, etc.
This is the same method we use whenever making a mindful decision. For example, when buying a refrigerator your goal may be for it to have a certain size or energy efficiency rating.
You then research the different models, features, and prices, read reviews, etc.
Finally you think about what you learned, and purchase the product.
Easy peasy, right?
Yes, easy when it comes to buying appliances and cars. Not so much when it comes to making healthcare decisions. That’s why it’s so important for your step 2 research to include learning the significance of symptoms.
It can be reassuring to know that symptoms will help you optimize your pet’s vitality and balance. And to know that your well-balanced pet with high vitality will resist most infectious diseases.
Vitality and balance are reflected by external and internal symptoms. Click here for how to use them to “tell you” when there is any internal imbalance. An imbalance can result from exposure to an infection, an environmental (or vaccine) toxin, or any problem with the lifestyle such as improper diet or insufficient exercise.
Your pets talk to you by producing mild symptoms. You can recognize and act on these symptoms even before any infection sets in. This is the fundamental step in practicing proactive prevention. Without doing harm. Click here for our article about using these early warning signs of dis-ease .
You can use them to begin lifestyle improvements even before most veterinarians would think there was a problem.
Let’s now apply HMDM to vaccination decisions:
HMDM Step 1. Goal
Your goal may be to go to a specific class or a certain training facility. Even though they require vaccines.
You may want to vaccinate because you are scared that your pet may catch a serious disease for which she can be vaccinated, yet you are worried about vaccinosis.
Or your goal is to build natural immunity along with overall health and vitality.
HMDM Step 2. Your Research
You might want to start your research by reading the compelling statistics and fantastic results from building natural immunity, vitality and overall health during human epidemics.
You can do this for your pets! Use reliable resources like the references at the end of this document and others available by clicking here.
Part of this step is the research we mentioned earlier that determines your pets real risk? What is the incidence in your local area of the infectious diseases that concern you?
For instance:
Does your cat or dog even leave your home?
Are you going to a veterinary clinic for nail trims where there could be exposure to infections?
Is Lyme even seen in your area?
Do you walk in areas with standing water?
Has any pet in your training class actually had the flu?
Jan Rasmussen, in the wonderful book, “Scared Poopless” discusses risk:benefit and has summarized the good and bad effects of vaccination.
You may have already started observing and noting symptom clues. They help you determine your pet’s real risk from any vaccine (or other stress) and true overall health. At home, everyday. It’s easy and simple.
Observing, describing, and recording your pet’s symptoms is key. These symptoms are a direct reflection of your pet’s internal health.
Record them in book form using a journal like Dr. Christina’s Healthy Animal’s Journal or digitally using wonderful free apps like Evernote or Google Sheets.
Any symptom change that you observe can be critical. Especially changes in the BEAM (Behavior, Energy, Appetite and Mood) symptoms and the early warning signs (ews) of internal imbalance.
Evaluating your pets BEAM symptoms will help you know what to do in step 3. Since these are a direct reflection of vitality and internal health they can help you decide if your pet is ready for a required vaccine.
Symptoms help provide important context when evaluating your pets before vaccinating. They tell you when your pet is dis-eased (imbalanced). Vaccinations are never indicated for pets that are ill in any way. There’s a list of six times to never vaccinate in Appendix I.
HMDM Step 3. Paws, Reflect Then Implement
This is the most important part of the HMDM process. You may want to avoid vaccines altogether, use titers, nosodes or need to treat vaccinosis. There’s much more about each one below.
Here’s where you really need to use the sacred paws before acting... Take a deep breath before you act. Fear of infectious disease can be a compelling call to action. Don’t get pressured into doing anything that your intuition and common sense tells you could be harmful.
Try to resist the urge to do anything but support the body. The most important and useful first step is to Embrace Vitality and Balance.
BEAM symptoms are a direct reflection of vitality and internal health. They will help you decide if your pet is ready for a required vaccine.
If you do vaccinate, keep daily notes of the BEAM and other symptoms. Look for ways to improve health. Ask for more support from members during the weekly mentoring Empower Hours! or in the Holistic Actions! Facebook community.
