11. Frequent Urination, an Irritating Problem
Urination is an important way for your body to rid itself of waste products. It is important for you to urinate at least 6 times a day. If you urinate less frequently, I wonder if you are drinking enough. Become aware of this and see what’s causing it. Perhaps you are trying to prevent yourself from going to the bathroom. Realize that you are not helping your body by doing this and that it can cause you to retain waste products, which cause problems with your health!
Frequent Urination? Difficulty Controlling Your Bladder?
If you have to urinate very often each day, more than 10 times and it is difficult for you to hold your urine. There may be something more going on. Maybe your pelvic muscles are not working properly, or you might even have a urinary tract infection. By the way, if you have a UTI, you only urinate a little at a time! If this is the case, be sure to go to your primary care physician! There may also be a hormonal cause and reduced bladder control.
Hormones
The MIR-Method contains various elements which actively work on the causes of frequent urination. I’m going to focus on the causes that are not so well known. Through steps 5 ‘Supplement all shortages’ and 6 ‘Balance hormone system’, the MIR-Method works on restoring hormones and the hormone system. If your hormone system is unbalanced, the pelvic muscles can “weaken”, making it difficult for you to control your bladder. This is common among women who have recently had a baby or who are going through menopause.
Chakras
In the chakra system, there are chakras in your abdomen, which help you to form a firm foundation. The lower chakra, which can be found around your genitals, helps you to feel grounded here and gives you the feeling that “I’m alright; I’m welcome here on earth”. The chakra right above that, around your bladder, is related to creativity and sexuality. If there is a disturbance in one of these chakras, usually as a result of emotions, it will have an effect on your pelvic muscles, and therefore, on how often you urinate.
Removing Waste Products
Many people who do the MIR-Method first go through a period of detoxification. Many waste products are disposed of, causing you to urinate more frequently. After this period it will become more balanced and you will urinate more regularly, 6-10 times a day.
Take a Good Look at Yourself
See which of the above-mentioned clues are true for you. How are you doing sexually? Do you feel sexually free? How secure do you feel here on earth? And how is your creativity? Do you let it flow? Do you develop your ideas, or do you let go of them again? Is your life at a standstill, and are you bored?
In short, look at yourself and see if one of the mentioned causes could play a part in your life. Also, check how often you go to the bathroom.
Drinking Less Water is not the Solution!
One more thing: if you drink a lot of alcohol or soda, your body will have to work hard to process the alcohol and sugars. That leads to frequent urination. Maybe you should do something about that. The worst solution is to drink nothing. Your body most certainly needs liquid! Preferably water! Therefore, look for the root causes and don’t let your body be thirsty!
Question for you: Have you already noticed that you are urinating less often while using the MIR-Method? Feel free to respond using another name!
I wish you much luck with the MIR-Method and that you have as few of these problems as possible!

Hi, Mireille,
I have done the Mir method several times and found it very useful.
My question now:
I just started a detox protocol with my holistic doctors.
Can I still do this method, at the sane time?
I have very frequent urination, especially at night, my pelvic muscles are weak.
Dear Ana,
Yes, you can always do the MIR-Method next to regular treatment. Please inform you doctors.
The MIR-Method will support the treatment by your doctors.
Greetings, Mireille
Last year my Testosterone was 722 ng/dl normal range is 438 – 1197 ng/dl. This year my
testosterone is 433 ng/dl. I now have ED [Erectile Disfunction]. Can the MIR method help?
Dear Donald,
We recently heard of a Dutch man whose erectile disfunction has solved. For him the cause was mainly emotional, since he lost his wife 1 1/2 years ago. If your ED is mainly emotional, you really have a good chance of improvement! If the cause is purely hormonal you also have a good chance. Usually hormonal disfunctions are cause by deep emotional layers. So I am quite hopeful for you.
Good luck!

Hi there,
I have been doing the MIR-Method for about a month now. This last 2 weeks, I have had sinus problems, stuffy and sometimes runny nose. This is new to me. Have you ever heard of this before when starting to do the MIR-Method?
Dear Kathy,
Yes, we often hear this. It is one of the ways of the body to clean itself. One reason is that it is taking care of bacteria. Make sure you drink a couple of glasses of water every day. And please just continue the MIR-Method.
I wish you good health!

Dear Mirelle,
I have completed 4 weeks of MIR method but still continue doing it. I noticed 1 thing during the 2nd week. I was close to my periods and every cycle when its 20 to 21 days i used to get breast soreness and kind of irritability. But last month (april 2014) i had very mild breast soreness(barely noticeable) and in terms of moods i was quite ok. Today again its 20 days since LMP and i’m carefully observing again there is very mild soreness less than last month. I hope its the ‘Balance hormone system’ part that is helping this. (i’m 41 years old).
Thanks and Regards

Dear Sujatha,
I am very happy for you! Yes, this is one of the results I notice more often with women, including my own experience. It has to do with issues with mother (step 3) and with the family line of women. Besides that, it is indeed step 6, Balance Hormone System. And often Chakra 2 is involved. That chakra is just at the height of your womb.
I am very happy for you and hope it will continue to be this gentle for you!
Greetings, Mireille Mettes
Just to let you know, I find the MIR method very helpful in my life. I use it an I find it helps me ground myself. Each of the steps is an entry point to awareness. It’s an amazing tool and I thank you for it. Your weekly tips are very helpful! Blessings to you.

I have been doing MIR method since half februari. But there is no lessening in going to urinate, nails and hair still brittle. Still heavily overweighted in spite of eating mostly only vegetables and taking vegetable and fruit juices
Dear Isha,
That is a real pity! There must be more work to do for you, but it is disappointing that you haven’t noticed any improvement up till now. What I have noticed, is that there is 1 strong reason when people have no improvement whatsoever: “Our deepest fear that we are powerful beyond measure.” (Marianne Williamson) Could it be that there is any reason for you not to shine? I have a great weak spot for people who are overweight because of their intense power of love.
Hope you recognize any of this. And that you are willing to continue the MIR-Method.
Good luck!!
Greetings, Mireille Mettes
Hoi Mireille
Ik ben net 50 geworden en gebruik de MIR method nu ruim 1 jaar. Het heeft me erg geholpen met sleeplessness (constant wakker worden en niet in slaap kunnen komen) en met opvliegers (menopause). Ik ben beide symptomen gewoon kwijt en voel me zo veel beter. Het enige waar ik niet vanaf kom is frequent urinating. Nu ik dit zo lees zal ik eens meer concentreren op de 9 stappen. Pelvis oefening zijn erg moeilijk en ik geloof dat mijn oefeningen (die ik nu 2 jaar doe) gewoon niet goed doe en verkeerde spieren aantrek. Sorry for writing in dutch, I dont get much of a chance to do so :). Thank you for sharing the MIR method, its been great.
