Alan>>>:
Welcome to “New Realities”. Each week on this program, I like to bring
guests on, that have an original way of looking at the world, a way of
changing their lives and possibly yours, and bringing you new ideas about
old belief systems, so, on today’s show, I have a very special guest named
Lou Gauthier who’s invented an incredible technique that people have been
looking for, for centuries, probably since the beginning of time, in a
way, and his name is Lou Gauthier, and he invented something called Luftek
Natural Hair. So thanks for watching and this is Lou, and Lou, it sounds
incredible. What exactly, I mean, what you claim, and this is not an
infomercial, but Lou claims that he can actually grow back hair on
people’s
heads just by a simple meditation technique, I mean, I think
that’s pretty amazing, so, do you want to just talk about how you
discovered it, and what it ...
Lou
>>>: It’s a little more than a meditation technique, that
is the preparation of the scalp, to be able to follow the technique. I
started losing my hair in 1965. I had a patch missing on the side of my
head, and someone suggested I go and see a dermatologist. Then I developed
two large patches on the back of my head, and this just kept going until
by 1982, I
had one little piece of hair left on the back of my head,
and the 5th dermatologist that I was seeing at this time, told me I was
wasting my time, there was nothing he could do, and that’s all I needed to
hear to get working on it by myself....
Alan>>>: But with patches
lost like that, that’s not hereditary loss of hair...
Lou >>> The doctors diagnosed it as alopecia
areata.
Alan>>> Which
means?
Lou >>>: Alopecia means
loss of hair, areata means in certain areas.
Alan>>>: I
see...
Lou >>>: It doesn’t
really make any difference. I learned since then that all types of hair
loss are the same, and this idea of being hereditary is contrary to my
beliefs. See, when I started this, I didn’t know anything about hair loss.
I had a security equipment business, and that’s what I was
concentrating on. I just did this as a hobby for myself. So, if I had
known all these other things that I have heard since, I wouldn’t have been
able to develop my technique.
Alan>>>: So, at what
year had you lost your hair completely?
Lou
>>>: 1982
Alan>>>: In 1982? and
then?
Lou >>> I lost all my
hair and also my right eyebrow. The hair on my arms and legs
also.
Alan>>>: See, that
might be through some kind of internal illness or
something, not a
natural loss, if there is such a thing, I mean....
Lou >>>: Well, since that time, I found that
it’s all the same thing. Male pattern baldness is the tightening up of the
scalp, and cuts the hair off..I like to compare it to a plant that’s
growing and if it runs into an obstacle, it stops growing. You take that
obstacle away and the plant continues to grow... Just as hair starts to
grow again...
Alan>>>: So, what is
the obstacle in the way of the hair?
Lou
>>>: The scalp. We are tightening up the scalp. I found by
relaxing my scalp, and just keeping it relaxed all the time, I’m able to
let my hair grow, and this is a daily reprieve that I get from baldness.
If I don’t continue to keep my scalp nice and relaxed, and if I stop
creating the positive pressure that I’ve developed, under the scalp,
to keep the scalp loose, then my hair will stop growing
again.
Alan>>>: And you’ve
tried this? And it?...
Lou >>>:
Yes, and if I slip up on my technique, I can tell what’s
happening.
Alan>>>: You can? And
how soon can you tell?
Lou >>>:
Oh... within days.
Alan>>>: Within days?
Wow!
Lou >>> I have to be on
guard 24 hours a day. It’s a lifestyle that I’ve developed that fits in
with this. It has to be my priority. That is my priority.
Alan>>>: Well, what do
you say about all these people who are spending thousands of dollars for
medicine and treatments and transplants? I mean, it’s an incredible
industry.
Lou >>> Well, I
attend health shows across the United States, and last year, when we were
in Chicago, just to attract attention, I had little brown bottles
labeled “Luftek Hair Awakener”, and I could have sold 5000
empty
bottles at that show. People were coming over and they
wanted....
Alan>>> You had
something called Luftek Hair Awakener?
Lou
>>>: It was nothing at all. They were empty bottles....
Alan>>>:
Ahhh...
Lou >>>: Because people
are looking for something they can rub on the scalp that will grow hair.
And sometimes that works for a little time because it’s a placebo, and
people are encouraged by that. They say they are
going to grow hair
this time, and all of a sudden there is disappointment.
Alan>>>: So, because
this show is about belief systems, you say people have a belief system
that they can’t do it themselves.
Lou
>>>: That’s right.
Alan>>>: And you, maybe
you’re the first to discover this.
Lou
>>>: I think this is a first. My own doctors that treated
me through the years, don’t want to talk to me anymore. The last one gave
me a letter saying that he treated me for alopecia areata on the head,
eyebrows, arms
and legs....
Alan>>>: Uh,
huh...
Lou >>>: But he doesn’t
want to get involved. I offered him half of my business, because he would
be a good person to have with me, because he saw the
results...
Alan>>>
Wow...
Lou >>> But I’m not in
the same category, with a background in the construction field. It doesn’t
tie in with the medical field very well.
Alan>>>: So what does
the medical field say about your condition? And this doctor, in
particular?
Lou >>>: I am a
charter member of the National Alopecia Areata Foundation out of
California, which is a support group for people who lose their hair.
I support their research, but they don’t support my technique. They
are a
support group to help people learn that they have to accept that
they are bald, and live that way.
Alan>>> So, tell me,
you never accepted the fact that this had to be a permanent
condition?
Lou >>>: No.
Alan>>> What was it
about you that didn’t accept that?
Lou
>>> I was coming out of a theater, back in Montreal, and I
turned around and saw a lady pointing at me and talking to her husband,
and the next day I went out and bought a wig. I tried on a toupee, and it
left all the
sides bare, so I had to have a wig right down below my
ears. And that’s when I started working on my technique to grow
hair.
Alan>>>: Did you just
believe that anything was possible, if you put your mind to
it?
Lou >>> I looked around at
people who were bald, and I noticed, from the forehead, up, they smiled
and frowned, and the top was like a piece of concrete; it didn’t move. So
I figured, I had to do something in that
area...
Alan>>>: Uh,
huh...
Lou >>> So that is when
I started with the meditation... relaxation... and then I learned how to
create a positive pressure under the skin, sort of like an inflated
building, keeping a little pressure underneath, just keeping the scalp...
floating... all the time.
Alan>>> Do you do this
technique all the time?
Lou
>>>: This is going on right now. It goes on all the time.
I go to sleep thinking of this. And when I wake up, it’s still there. And
it’s natural for me know...
Alan>>>:
Uh,huh...
Lou >>>: But at
times, I feel a little tingle on my scalp, and I have to stop what I’m
doing and take a couple of minutes to meditate.
Alan>>>: The tingle
means that you’re losing circulation?
Lou
>>>: Yes.
Alan>>>: So, you have
an internal mechanism that tells you when things are off?
Lou >>>: I developed
that...
Alan>>>: So, in a way,
it’s like any muscle you focus on. It’s a muscle, in a way, you’re
developing. Like, if you exercise your arm over and over, you’ll build
that energy in there...
Lou
>>>: Yes, but this is a little bit contrary to that,
because you’re relaxing it. It’s not exercise.
Alan>>>:
Ahhhhh...
Lou >>> If you just
take for example, pressing one hand against the other. If you want
to try that. Just pressing like that. You’ll feel the tension here. That’s
what causes the hair loss. So, I’m reversing that. That’s
all I’m
doing. I’m reversing the cause of baldness. Baldness is caused by the
tightening up of the scalp, or any part of the body, and I’m just
reversing that. It’s a daily reprieve. We keep the skin ‘floating’ on
the
body. As it was meant to be...
Alan>>> Yes, so maybe
you can bring health to any part of the body that you focus
on....
Lou >>> I have helped
people with arthritis, different body problems, stomach
problems...
Alan>>> Heart, liver,
any type...
Lou >>>: Any type
of problem can be helped.
Alan>>> Through the
same technique? Wow...
Lou >>>
Yes...
Alan>>>: Wow, and the
science community is not paying attention to you...
Lou >>> Basically, the whole thing is, we
want to keep this feeling 24 hours a day...
Alan>>> We’ll actually
show pictures of this feeling...
(Lou shows a photograph of his
‘aura’).
Lou >>> If we can just
keep our aura in good condition, around our body....
Alan>>>
Yes.
Lou >>>: And that’s what
we work at...
Alan>>> How do we know
that?
Lou >>>: We feel this. I
had this picture taken at the HealthMap show in New York, last weekend,
and I knew ahead of time what the results would be, because I felt this
way...
Alan>>> Ah,
huh...
Lou >>>: I hope
sometime, just for a few minutes, I can lose this good feeling to have a
photo to compare with, to show the difference. But probably, I will be
unable to do that.
Alan>>>: Yes... So, you
were completely bald, for how long?
Lou
>>>: Gradually over 17 years.
Alan>>> And how long
did it take you to develop this technique?
Lou
>>>: I did it as a hobby, and I didn’t keep track of time,
but I feel, in about 3 years, I had all my hair back.
Alan>>> Three years!
We’ll show a picture of that.
(‘before and after’ photographs are
shown).
Lou >>>: When I was at
the health show in Pasadena, in January, a lady came to our booth. She
looked over my shoulder. She was examining my aura. She was a psychic, and
she said: “You did not develop this technique. This is a gift that was
given to you”, and I think it makes sense that way, because I came up with
it so quickly, it was impossible...
Alan>>>: This is really
a gift that you’re giving the planet, in a way...
Lou >>>: I hope so...
Alan>>>: People have
searched for years, for really centuries, decades, and thousands of years
for a secret, and somehow, you discovered the secret. You really have,
because there really is natural hair...
Lou
>>>: My hair is nice and soft...
Alan>>> How old are
you? You don’t mind me asking?
Lou
>>>: I’m 67, pushing 68.
Alan>>> And you feel
great, too...
Lou >>>: I feel
great...
Alan>>>: But getting
back to the thing about the aura, how do you know when your aura is in
good condition?
Lou >>>: I also
teach people how to spread the aura... spread the
energy...
Alan>>> First, define
the aura, because I think a lot of people don’t know what an aura
is.
Lou >>>: It’s an energy
field that a lot of people feel is around the body, but it is the
opposite. It’s the body that is in the energy field.
Alan>>> Right,
right.... so the body’s in the energy field, and ..... then, how do you
spread it?
Lou >>> 99.9% of
people can spread that energy with their hands.
Alan>>> Uh,
huh...
Lou >>>: For instance,
if I get a sore throat, I can take my hand like this, and just run it
slowly like this, and within about 10 seconds my sore throat disappears.
If I get any irritations in my mouth area, I just have
to take my hand
and run it around that area. This does not grow hair but this helps to
increase good health all over the body.
Alan>>> It does... Just
show that technique again.
Lou
>>>: The energy is right in the palm of the hand and the
fingers, and we just spread this energy around. If a person feels any pain
whatsoever,they just have to do this, spread the energy around.
Alan>>>: Uh,
huh...
Lou >>>: Sore throat,
cold, toothache, a person just has to work at it like that. Because we
want to feel good from head to toe. Just growing hair might be good for
some people, but once we get our hair, we want to go more, we always want
to improve, look for better things...
Alan>>> For people to
get in touch with you, they can... I know you have a video tape... but if
they want to get in touch with you to talk about this... Lou’s a great
guy. I think he’s an original. I think he’s really discovered something.
I’m going to try it, and see what comes up with me. But getting
back to the background, like meditation and all that, where does that
background come from, for you? How did you develop a meditation? How did
you get into this? It’s sort of a spiritual approach to reality. How did
you? What is your background on this?
Lou
>>>: I don’t really have any background on that. It’s just
the way I developed for myself. I figured my subconscious mind was working
all the time and it was using what it had learned...
Alan>>> What do you
mean by subconscious mind?
Lou
>>>: It’s working all the time...
Alan>>> What is the
subconscious mind?
Lou >>>: The
subconscious mind is based on our experience... or the experience of our
parents... or grandparents. That’s where the hereditary part comes in. So,
we’re programmed ahead of time to believe that hair loss
is
hereditary... that we can’t grow hair. We may as well accept this,
or get a wig or something. We can reprogram that. We can change our
thinking.
Alan>>> Well, even
illness, you’re saying, we can reprogram...
Lou
>>>Yes, we have all the healing powers within our own
bodies, anything whatsoever, we can heal.
Alan>>> And how do we
do that?
Lou >>> I had a bit of
a lump on my face, somewhere around here, there’s not a mark at all there
now. I just dissolved it right off just like that, a couple of years
back.
Alan>>> How often did
you do that?
Lou >>> I really
don’t know. I just did it when I felt like doing it, and I said I’ll just
try it and see what happens, just for a couple of minutes. Another
thing I would like to mention is, when my hair grew, it was just down to
the top of my ears, and I didn’t have any hair below that. I grew my
mustache about 5 years ago, and it looked a little bit odd without any
sideburns, so I just grew these sideburns in the past 4 years. You can
direct this technique to any part of the body you wish.
Alan>>> Wow, that is
incredible. You’re directing a focus, healing, energy to any part of the
body that you want...
Lou >>>:
That’s right.
Alan>>> You do have a
gift... at least for discovering something. That’s a gift. So, any
illness, anything that people have, they can direct that particular
energy, and when you dissolved that thing on your face, how many times did
you do this every day?
Lou
>>>: Probably about 10 times a day.
Alan>>> For a couple of
minutes?
Lou >>> Just for,
maybe for 10 seconds, just to get the energy going in the right direction.
Alan>>> Were you
surprised? Or did you expect?...
Lou
>>> I expect things, I don’t get surprised. I just
expect...
Alan>>> You do! And
that’s probably...
Lou >>> I
was doing a bit of a study on anger, when people have anger, and when I
was putting all our equipment away at the Jacob Javits Center, Sunday
night, the young man that was helping me load it into the car, told
me
he suffered from anger besides his hair loss problem, so I told him a
little about the hair loss. But the anger, I asked him to try something
that I’m working on, to take both hands and keep them about 3 inches
away
from, just below the rib cage, with the palms facing inward, and
feel a little bit for energy, starting at about 4 inches or so, and
squeezing that energy to about 2 inches, and just keep the hands like
that, probably for about 3 or 4 minutes. That just seems to take anger
right out of a person, and they become pacifiers after
that.
Alan>>> You’re just
saying, holding your hands over your body when you’re angry, like
this?
Lou >>>: Not only when
you’re angry, but to get in the habit, if a person has that problem, just
try this regularly. It could be several times a day, and... just get that
feeling... the feeling that it feels so nice, they want that feeling, and
it will take the anger away.
Alan>>> You’re saying
to do this when they’re angry?
Lou
>>> They can practice it anytime.
Alan>>> And it will
take away their anger? What’s happening when you’re doing that? What is
going on?
Lou >>>: I don’t have
those answers.... we’re creating extra energy to the heart
area.
Alan>>> To the heart
area.
Lou >>>We’re calming the
heart...
Alan>>> We’re calming
the heart. Well, in Chinese medicine, you know, fire’s the heart, and
liver, where anger is held, is in the liver, is the wood element, and the
wood feeds the heart, so if you’re calming the heart, maybe you’re
supplementing the wood. That would be a Chinese traditional medicine
understanding... of the wood and fire elements, but, I think you have a
sense of intuitive understanding about healing. You’re really a healer. So
this is a great discovery about hair, and .. so, what is your idea for the
future? What do you want to do?
Lou
>>>: I want to keep doing research to help people... for
all kinds of problems... health problems and living problems... because I
want everyone to enjoy life as I am...
Alan>>> Are you
enjoying life?
Lou >>>I am
enjoying life.
Alan>>> Is there
anything you’re not enjoying?
Lou
>>>: No, I started my business in 1990
Alan>>> Which business
is this?
Lou >>>: Luftek
Natural Hair
Alan>>>
Uh,huh...
Lou >>>: and I’m
devoting my life to that, now. I am engaged, and we will probably be
married within the next year or two.
Alan>>> Oh, I thought
you two had been together for a long time.
Lou
>>>: No, 5 years or so.
Alan>>> Uh, hum. Lou
has a very nice wife.
Lou >>>:
Hopefully, we’ll have an interview again, and, you’ll have your hair by
that time, and then...
Alan>>> I have a little
bit...
Lou >>>: And I’ll be
able to ask you a few questions.
Alan>>> Well, I’d love
that. I am going to do this technique, and... when you say you’re happy,
and want everyone to be happy, is that possible? You feel for the
planet?
Lou >>>: Oh, I
certainly believe so. If people who are following my technique, continue
to help others, along that thinking...
Alan>>> Which is the
thinking that anything is possible?
Lou
>>>: Anything is possible. We can conquer the world that
way.
Alan>>> So, what is
your wildest dream? Help heal the planet, but...
Lou >>>: Peace on earth.
Alan>>>: Really, that
through hair? (ha-ha)
Lou >>>:
No, through healing.
Alan>>>: Through
healing...
Lou >>>: Healing the
body and the soul.
Alan>>>: Well, this is
the first television interview Lou is doing, and I’m excited that he’s
here presenting, not just his technique, but who he is, as a healer, to
New York, and the planet, and Lou, give your number again, just so people
can call you, maybe get some videos from you, talk about your
technique...
Lou >>>: The whole
technique is on the video cassette, and the phone number is
1-888-OWN-HAIR, 1-888-696-4247. And if they just want to call for the
brochure, it shows my pictures, and gives the information, and it gives
the 12 good reasons for using the Luftek Natural Hair
System.
Alan>>> Just let me see
the 12 good reasons... This is not about any product, this is not an
infomercial, this is something we have in us, to generate healing. at all
levels, and I recommend it, I mean... I’ll see for myself, I am skeptical,
but I think skepticism and belief are 2 things that... I don’t know...
they somehow contradict each other.
Lou
>>>: Sometimes a person denies. That’s their way of asking
for help.
Alan>>>: Explain that a
little bit.
Lou >>>: Sometimes
when a person denies, they say they are skeptical, actually, they’re
asking for help. ..in an indirect way...
Alan>>>: If they say
no, I don’t believe, or no, this is not possible, how is that a way of
asking for help?
Lou >>>: They
are asking for help. In sales, when a person says no, that’s when the sale
begins.
Alan>>> I see. They say
no, but they don’t walk away. If they really said no, they would say, this
is it. So, a skeptic is someone who says no, I don’t believe that, but
tell me more. Right? I get it.
Lou
>>>: The Luftek technique is the way of the
future.
Alan>>> Luftek Natural
Hair System... but you know, I would call it Luftek Natural Healing
System. Really, because you want to heal..... You could go into hospitals
and teach people this technique, couldn’t you? For their
bodies, for
say, heart failure....
Lou >>>
I have been using it to help people who have stomach problems or other
problems, and I give them the treatments....
Alan>>>: You give them
the hands on treatment?
Lou
>>>: Yes, and that is now being done in one of the
hospitals in Toronto.
Alan>>>: What about
kidneys, the heart, I mean...
Lou
>>> As far as I can see, the whole body can be healed.
Another thing I do is, I eat a handful of pumpkin seeds every day,
and that helps the prostate gland.
Alan>>>: Do you have
any other dietary tips?
Lou
>>>: I took medication for allergies for over 30 years,
and about 5 years ago, I started spraying a mild solution of salt in my
sinuses 4 times a day... a ¼ teaspoon of salt in 6 ounces of water, and..
I cut down after
about 6 months to a couple of times a day, and I
haven’t taken any medication for my allergies for the past 4 years.
Alan>>> Wow... so
that’s health, and you’re using the mind too.... But let me ask you my
final question, because we’re almost out of time. Do you believe that,
then, maybe we don’t have to die... that our body can regenerate itself...
for a long time?
Lou >>>: I
believe that once the energy is taken away from us, that we die.
That, I believe. Alan: But, we’re empowering our own energy. Can’t we
regenerate thatenergy? Like we can with hair and tissue?
Lou >>>You’re giving me something to work
on.
Alan>>> Well, people
have talked about, the Chinese have talked about immortality, and... not
for preserving the body, but for evolving our spiritual nature.
Lou >>> We can certainly
extend our life, and we can keep the youthfulness in it. I think, by
following these techniques, that we can keep ourselves younger and in
better shape.
Alan>>> So, you can
actually reverse the aging. You’re actually going through..... Is that
what you’re actually doing for yourself? Reversing aging?
Lou >>>: I was 52 when I started this
technique, so, it’s a little late to get a start, but I think a person
starting when they’re 20 years old, it would make a big difference.
Alan>>>: Right...... do
you believe that it’s possible then to revert yourself back to the age of
20 or 25?
Lou >>>: Not at this
point, I don’t.
Alan>>>: But, it’s
possible. I mean, if you think it is, it could be. Right?
Lou >>>: I’m not going to discount the
thought.
Alan>>> Well, let’s put
that one out there. For me, if growing hair, which people said is
impossible to do, then maybe reversing aging on all levels is
possible.
Lou >>>: It may be
possible. I won’t commit myself.
Alan>>> Will you work
on that one?
Lou >>>: I will
work on it.
Alan>>> Let us know
what progress you get?
Lou
>>>: Yes
Alan>>>: I think we’re
out of time. Just about. My name is Alan Steinfeld. This is the New
Realities. My
guest today has
been Lou Gauthier, for the Luftek...natural healing
technique...I really have to call it that... and Lou, just give your
number one more time, and....
Lou
>>>: 1-888-696-4247
