When people tell me that they never get sick, as if this means that they are then healthy,

I have to point out that the healthy human organism actually needs a way to flush out toxicity.

And getting the common cold is a perfect way to do that.

Ready to live at the higher vibrations where peace, love, joy, and good health are the daily

standard? That's what this show is all about. Welcome to Vibe. And here's your host, Robin

Open Shaw. If you never get sick, does that mean you have a strong immune system? Dear Green Smytheryl, I have a

and people say this to me all the time. So I want to talk about why we've gotten very confused

if we think that never getting sick means that we have a great

immune system. Actually, getting what you might call the common cold is incredibly beneficial for

your health. It's like getting a deep cleaning. Your body produces a lot of clear mucus, and it

bathes your tissues and your sinuses, and it washes out a lot of toxicity.

And if you get a fever, for instance, you're burning out pathogens that may have become an

overgrowth in your body. We all have all the viruses, all the pathogens in us at all times

since the day we were born. But when you get too much of one,

when it grows to an amount that makes you sick or at risk of making you sick, your body may go

into a fever. And the overgrowth of a pathogen, like a virus or bacterial infection, dies off.

Because pathogens can't survive a temperature over 101 degrees.

And your white blood cells are optimized at high temperatures too. So what you might call

getting sick, I can show you multiple mechanisms by which your body's immune system is being

mobilized and optimized.

So basically, let's say you produce a lot of mucus.
