There are certain products, services and devices that help to speed up the healing and recovery process for athletes as well as non-athletes from injuries such as slip and fall, accidents, and even degeneration due to aging.<br /><br />As a Naturopathic Doctor, Acupuncturist, and Athlete, I have come across many helpful holistic healing agents* in my practice and I've also had the opportunity to test many of them out on myself (*holistic meaning non-toxic, non-drug, natural remedies). The following recommendations contain hyperlinks to the best products that I am aware of: <br /><br /><b>SPORTS MEDICINE RECOMMENDATIONS</b><br /><br />For muscle tension I use topical <a href="https://amzn.to/41IC3RB">magnesium spray</a>. It's great for shin splints, muscle strains ("pulling" a muscle) and tight and sore muscles etc. Magnesium is an essential mineral for muscle relaxation. <a href="https://amzn.to/3Nb5xDc">Epsom salt</a> baths are effective because it is essentially a magnesium soak (and the Mg gets absorbed through the skin). I recommend 2 cups of the salt per warm bath with 1 cup baking soda (for detox, assisting with lactic acid removal) plus 10 drops <a href="https://amzn.to/3AvnMvp">peppermint essential oil</a> (another natural muscle relaxer) for best results. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Floatation tanks are amazing because they contain 1,000 lbs. of epsom salts and it relaxes the mind and body (remember, so much of sports is mental)! <a href="https://float8ion.com/fort-lauderdale/" target="_blank">Float 8</a> located at 714A NE 13th St, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33304 has several floatation pods. My favorite room is the "cabin" because it has a high ceiling. They have an option for relaxation music or quiet, LED lights or dark. The no sound no light option is called sensory deprivation and some people report deep meditative experiences. Use discount code <span style="color: red;"><b>ag-547460</b></span> for <b><span style="color: #274e13;">$20 OFF</span></b> your first float!<br /><br />I also take magnesium orally. This is a <a href="https://amzn.to/3AwGseh">powder</a> that can be added to water. I recommend drinking it during workouts. I alternate with <a href="https://amzn.to/447claN">BRCAAs</a> (branch chain amino acids for building lean muscle) in my water during workouts and sometimes I also use <a href="https://amzn.to/3Vbi3nZ">collagen</a> (to offset wear and tear and prevent degeneration of the joints, especially the knees). <br /><br />Another topical ointment that is a must have in every athlete's home is <a href="https://amzn.to/41I6YgS">arnicare</a>. It is used for pain, inflammation and bruising and injuries where the skin is not broken. When the skin is broken, it may be taken <a href="https://amzn.to/440kFt7">orally</a> to help the body heal itself faster. <br /><br />There are various different herbal pain patches available (look for ones with menthol, and herbs that stimulate blood flow that have excellent reviews) that can be left on for 12 hours such as this one for <a href="https://amzn.to/40IwEZe">knee pain</a>. These types of patches are good because it is similar to kinesiology taping which stabilizes the injured joint and helps with alignment. There are countless menthol products such as biofreeze, IcyHot, and many others that have the same effect. The patch just keeps the substance in contact with the skin for a longer amount of time so it doesn't rub off on clothes or sheets.<br /><br /><b>Nutrition</b> can help or hinder the body to heal! Fruits and vegetables and clean protein and lots of water help the body to heal itself by supporting the immune system. Drink smoothies, soup, and have fresh wholesome food when you are injured or sick to get the most vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and nutrients as possible. Dehydration can also contribute to muscle pain and subpar function and performance of the body. Sugar suppresses the immune system. Additives, preservatives, food coloring, artificial sweeteners and chemicals in the food (even pesticides) are substances which contribute to poor mental and physical health. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Make sure you are well <b>hydrated</b>. Avoid "energy" drinks. They have too much caffeine and can cause dehydration, anxiety and heart problems. Because athletes sweat a lot, we should also be putting <a href="https://amzn.to/3AvJlMn">electrolytes</a> in our water to replenish what we excrete! <a href="https://amzn.to/3NkYZlC" target="_blank">Alkaline diet</a> is anti-inflammatory so be mindful of eating more greens and fish and less meat and dairy. The herbalist known as Dr Sebi helped people to heal from so-called "incurable diseases" using the foods in the book link. As Hippocrates said, "<i>Let food be thy medicine, and medicine be thy food!</i>" <a href="https://amzn.to/3HirX1w" target="_blank">Alkaline water</a> machines can be expensive but may be worth the investment. You can also add <a href="https://amzn.to/3Nf29af" target="_blank">chlorophyll drops</a> to your water to make it more alkaline.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">For a balanced diet, many athletes use the <b><a href="https://amzn.to/3NAJ7LZ" target="_blank">zone diet</a></b>: 30% fats, 30% protein and 40% carbs. We all have different caloric needs based on our age, height, weight, genetics, physical activity, metabolism etc. Some athletes are trying to gain muscle mass and others may be wanting to get more lean. Using <span style="color: red;"><b>FREE</b></span> Apps such as <b>Better Human</b> or <b>My Fitness Pal</b> can help athletes and nonathletes alike to obtain their fitness goals by tracking the foods that they consume and making sure they are eating in accordance with their goals. My favorite protein powders, health promoting supplements and nutritional products can be found <a href="https://mibaso.org/health-store">here</a>.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHDLM3HfAQWS4vRtRCtJ7n7Im1y_-loSUYAZYTkjy-MGxoCF04i--ZVG1QggAg6s5igUFIuDi9CMOTikTMAu6Luznr95eYDYwJp00_yiRKF4_uraaKLJvF2wL_eUfhb_KZSwKs1R4VIm1OqDiZX-xLqXIbwqTLhmn5xn73Yr_eO9tnWYMvQV8x8vIl/s612/nutrition.jpg"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHDLM3HfAQWS4vRtRCtJ7n7Im1y_-loSUYAZYTkjy-MGxoCF04i--ZVG1QggAg6s5igUFIuDi9CMOTikTMAu6Luznr95eYDYwJp00_yiRKF4_uraaKLJvF2wL_eUfhb_KZSwKs1R4VIm1OqDiZX-xLqXIbwqTLhmn5xn73Yr_eO9tnWYMvQV8x8vIl/s320/nutrition.jpg" /></a></div><br /><a href="http://mibaso.org">Acupuncture</a> is great to keep the body balanced with optimal blood and energy flow. It can be used for prevention, maintenance, and treatment. Most acupuncturists also provide suction cup therapy (for muscle relaxation), infrared therapeutic heat, ultrasound therapy and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASVcBLgch_0" target="_blank">other techniques</a> that also help to stimulate and speed up the healing process of the body. According to the <a href="https://holistic-health.org.uk/world-health-organisation-recommends-acupuncture-100-conditions/#:~:text=The%20World%20Health%20Organisation%20recommends%20acupuncture%20for%20these%20diseases%2C%20symptoms,Allergic%20rhinitis%20(including%20hay%20fever)">World Health Organization</a> acupuncture is proven to be safe and effective in treating over 40 different conditions including: sciatica, sprains, tennis elbow, low back pain, knee pain, post operative pain, neck pain, periarthritis of the shoulder, and more!

I like to make sure that my spine and hips are in alignment, especially when I participate in high impact sports such as running and pole vaulting. In South Florida, I recommend <a href="http://drjillianduquette.com/">Jillian Duquette</a>. She is gentle and gets the job done without using excessive force. If you see her, please tell her that I referred you!<br /><br />Many chiros and <b>physical therapists</b> use <a href="https://amzn.to/3oPRyZ7">TENS</a> units in their practice to contract and relax muscles which promotes circulation, lymphatic drainage, and healing. These devices are very inexpensive and can be utilized at home. Bruce Lee allegedly used TENS units to make himself look more muscular before shooting a movie!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><b>Massage</b> can also help to rehabilitate after injuries. Sports Massage can be deep and painful and experienced practitioners can be expensive. For affordable Swedish (relaxation) massage, I recommend supporting local massage schools such as <a href="https://www.beaveda.com/locations/fort-lauderdale-miami/" target="_blank">Aveda</a>. Massage devices such as <a href="https://amzn.to/40OGZCV" target="_blank">this one</a> can be helpful as well and are often used by health care practitioners such as physical therapists and chiropractors. <b>Reiki</b> and <b>Craniosacral Therapy</b> are also worth looking into for energy healing. Reiki is used in hospitals. They call it Healing Hands.<br /><br /><b>Yoga/Stretching</b>, <a href="https://amzn.to/41O9aDt" target="_blank">Foam Rollers</a> and Exercise <a href="https://amzn.to/3VdBi08">Bands</a> are also very important. Flexibility is a key component to help people to bounce back from injuries faster. People who are more flexible are less likely to get hurt when they fall or have an accident that would otherwise hurt someone whose body is less limber. There are countless YouTube videos for Yoga, even specialty videos for specific concerns from herniated discs and beyond. Like everything, consistency is key. So daily practice, even 10 minutes per day is ideal. <b>Exercise bands </b>are ideal for resistence training. They help to rebuild muscle strength and improve range of motion without using heavy weights. <b>Foam rollers</b> allow self-massage and can be very beneficial.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">If you have access to an <b>infrared sauna</b> or <b>cryotherapy</b> and <b>hyperbaric oxygen</b> chamber therapy, those can also be utilized for athletes to help heal all kinds of injuries and ailments. They can be expensive therapies so it may not be so accessible for everyone (see <b>Groupon</b> for local deals and discounts). Some sports centers have ice baths for their athletes which would have the same effect as the cryotherapy. Ice and cold is best when the injury is acute (fresh, just happened). When it is sub-acute (up to 12 weeks post injury), alternating heat and ice (always end with ice) is a form of <b>hydrotherapy</b> which has the effect of pumping the blood through the body and helping the healing process. For a sprained ankle for example, put a hot pack (or enema bag) on the area for 3 minutes and then a pack of frozen peas or ice on the area for 30 seconds. Repeat this cycle 3 times. The entire treatment takes just over 10 minutes and helps to promote healing.<br /><br /><b> Cabbage poltice</b> is great for reducing inflammation. Watch this video to learn more about this cheap and effective home remedy:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/fFpEowbG-es" width="320" youtube-src-id="fFpEowbG-es"></iframe></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">I recently injured my shoulder (I could not lift up my arm) and had access to try a device utilizing <b>PEMF</b> (Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Field) Therapy. It uses magnetic therapy to positively charge the cells in the body to aid microcirculation and promote healing. I can't say I understand exactly how it works but it is backed by 100s of <a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=pemf+therapy" target="_blank">scientific research</a> studies and my experience with the treatment was very positive. In just a few sessions over the course of a week, the improvement has been dramatic! It's not 100% gone yet but I consider the speed of the healing process remarkable.<br /><br />This 6 minute video gives a nice overview on this modality:<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/TTgPnNY39SA" width="320" youtube-src-id="TTgPnNY39SA"></iframe></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: #d0e0e3; font-family: times;"><br /></span></div><a href="https://www.posthastepharmacy.com/">Post Haste Pharmacy</a> in Hollywood, FL has this $6,000 full body Bemer mat and they sell 1 month treatment packages for only $99 (please tell them I referred you if you go). Or you can buy a disposable <a href="https://amzn.to/3n5bbMo">$22 device</a> to treat small specific areas for about 25 hours of battery life (then you throw it away). I bought this home device and am happy with it (I sleep with it on). There is another <a href="https://amzn.to/40JEW3g">option</a> for about $1800 you can have your own full body mat set and have treatments in the comfort of your home for the entire family. I think this option would be ideal if you can spring for it (they offer payment plans too)! Just read the reviews, it even works on pets! (and comes with a 3 year warranty). <b><span style="color: red;">NOTE</span></b>: PEMF Technology is <span style="color: red;">contraindicated</span> in anyone who has metal in their body and not recommended for anyone with a history of cancer. <span style="background-color: #fcff01;">Consult with your primary care physician before starting this or any new therapy.</span><div><br /></div><div><b>BALANCE AND MODERATION</b></div><div>As eager as we are for instant gratification, some things can't be rushed. Ultimately healing takes time and returning to a sport before the body is ready can lead to more debilitating injuries. It's okay to <b>rest</b>! Listen to your doctor and your body, don't rush it. <b>Sleep</b> is important for healing. Make sure you are getting enough <a href="https://amzn.to/420TQmL" target="_blank">good quality sleep</a>. Experts agree that over-training is detrimental to progress and increases injury risk. We often put too much pressure on ourselves. It's important to participate in sports for our health and wellbeing and because we love it. When we put too much pressure on ourselves it can backfire and the stress causes us not to perform our best. Do things that <b>nurture your spirit</b> such as walking in nature, going to the beach (getting fresh air), music, art, dance, journaling etc.<br /><div><br /></div><div><b>SPORTS PSYCHOLOGY</b></div><div>Many people in the pole vault community follow Team Hoot on social media. Shawn Francis is a tremendous resource for athletes. His <a href="https://one-whole-life-with-shawn-francis.simplecast.com/" target="_blank">podcast</a> contains numerous interviews with all kinds of experts who address the mental and emotional aspect of sports. I highly recommend it! As he says, "it's 80% mental and the rest is in your head." So to be the best at your sport, you have to be your best mentally. To cultivate a more relaxed and focused mind, meditation is a great tool and practice. Here is a free guided meditation created by yours truly as well as some <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkyuW3Ql1Ek" target="_blank">positive affirmations</a>. Hope you enjoy them!</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/BylVnuI5qzo" width="320" youtube-src-id="BylVnuI5qzo"></iframe></div><div><br /></div><div>One of my favorite remedies for stress and anxiety is <a href="https://amzn.to/3oQewzk" target="_blank">Rescue Remedy</a>. It is available in many forms and flavors and there is a formula for pets too (when loud noises scare them such as fireworks or thunder).</div><div><br />The beauty of <b>Naturopathic Medicine</b> is that the treatment and the prevention strategies are often very similar.

These devices are being implanted underground in many neighborhoods so even though you don't see it, it may be there. A good protection from the 5G radiation is to surround your home or office with trees and plants. These create a protective shield from harmful invisible rays of radiation.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;">Second is that you will not automatically receive 5G phone service UNLESS your phone is equipped for it. See your cell phone provider for details. If you have the latest model cell phone, then it is 5G enabled and you cannot turn it off, but what you can do is downgrade to an older model which has 4G capabilities. It may be slower but it also may be less harmful.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;">As technology advances, what are the potential health risks of speeding up internet connectivity? The information out there is very controversial and there are conflicting claims on both sides, but it's better to err on the side of safety. I am not here to convince anyone that %G is harmful or safe. What I do know is that radiation exposure is a risk factor for health conditions and I am interested in mitigating risks and exposure to potentially harmful rays and chemicals etc as much as possible.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;">It is easy enough to put a personal protective device in your pocket, purse or backpack and to put a sticker on a cell phone, laptop or other electronic device, to reduce and limit your exposure to 5G and EMF radiation.</span></p><p><span style="background-color: #fcff01; letter-spacing: -0.32px;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>Aires Guardian</b> has three next generation silicon based microprocessors that reduce the harmful effects of electromagnetic radiation emitted by electronic devices commonly found at home or in the office.

<b><span style="color: #009ce2; font-family: arial;">Mibaso Holistic Health</span></b><span style="color: black; font-family: arial;"> has helped women of all ages to regulate their hormones using
Acupuncture and holistic medicine since 2006. We are experts in the field of
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and improving the quality of life for our
patients is our mission.</span></div>

<b><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;">Fertility</span></b></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0in;">
<span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: arial;">The global average of
couples with fertility problems was 9% as of 2016. Many things
contribute to this statistic such as pre-existing health conditions, high
stress, poor diet, sedentary lifestyle, nulliparity, advanced age at time of
attempted conception and more. Assisted reproductive technologies are
often very expensive and inaccessible. Evidence points to acupuncture offering
an opportunity to promote natural fertility. In one study, the acupuncture
protocol tested influenced women who received it compared to women who used
lifestyle modification alone: their fertility awareness and wellbeing
increased, and those who conceived did so in half the time. </span></div>
<br />
<div style="background: white; margin: 0in;">
<span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: arial;">Complementary and
alternative medicines (<st1:place w:st="on">CAM</st1:place>) are sometimes used
by individuals who desire to improve the outcomes of their fertility treatment
and/or mental health during fertility treatment. Among the various
forms of complementary modalities, acupuncture has the highest level of
evidence for its use in improving male and female fertility outcomes.
Especially if stress is a factor, the positive impact of acupuncture on the
coupleās quality of sleep, vitality and wellbeing is paramount to the ability
to conceive. It is well-known that it can be challenging to conceive when
one or both people are under constant high stress. Sometimes lifestyle
factors such as work and exercise will need to be evaluated and re-prioritized. </span></div>
<br />
<div style="background: white; margin: 0in;">
<b><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;">Pregnancy & Miscarriage Prevention</span></b></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0in;">
<span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: arial;">Contrary to what you may
think, acupuncture is safe and effective during all phases of conception and
pregnancy. In the first trimester of pregnancy, some women experience
nausea, vomiting, headaches, fatigue and āmorning sickness.ā Acupuncture
is a great tool in all of these instances. In the next two trimesters,
some women experience, sciatica, back pain and other discomforts due to the
size and weight of the growing fetus, placenta, and womb. These symptoms
can also be treated with acupuncture for pain relief. </span></div>
<br />
<div style="background: white; margin: 0in;">
<span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: arial;">Some women have trouble
with miscarriage after they conceive. Acupuncture can help to prevent
miscarriage as well as uterine prolapse and hemorrhoids. There are
pressure points on the head that lift the energy of the body upwards and help
to prevent and treat these conditions of sinking qi (vitality). </span></div>
<br />
<div style="background: white; margin: 0in;">
<b><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;">Breech Baby / Labor Induction / Childbirth
/ Post-Partum</span></b><span style="color: black; font-family: arial;"><br />
<span style="background: white;">Close to the end of the third trimester, when a
baby is breech (not head down), the doctor will recommend c-section.
Acupuncture and other holistic health techniques can actually turn the baby in
the belly so that it can be delivered vaginally and the mother can
prevent having to recover from surgery!</span></span></div>
<span style="background-color: white;"></span><br />
<div style="background: white; margin: 0in;">
<span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: arial;">When a baby is past the
due date and the mother doesnāt want to have the birth medically induced with
drugs or to have a c-section, acupuncture can be utilized to stimulate uterine
contractions and help induce labor naturally. Acupuncture can also be
used during natural childbirth to control pain (when the mother is not given an
epidural or any other drugs). After the birth, acupuncture can be used to
help the mother to heal from any birth traumas or even just to transition back
into feeling like herself again. </span><span style="color: black; font-family: arial;"></span></div>
<span style="background-color: white;"></span><br />
<div style="background: white; margin: 0in;">
<span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: arial;">Acupuncture stimulates a
release of serotonin from the brain, which is a neurotransmitter responsible
for feelings of wellbeing. Because of this combined with the fact that it
also can help balance hormones, it can help to prevent post-partum depression,
which many mothers might not even realize that they are suffering from, much
less know where to turn for help. Otherwise post-partum acupuncture can
help non-depressed women with new born baby fatigue, and help with other
changes that the woman may be experiencing in her body and spirit.</span><span style="color: black; font-family: arial;"></span></div>

<b><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;">Menstrual irregularities </span></b><span style="color: black; font-family: arial;"><br />
<span style="background: white;">Menstrual irregularities include: Pre-Menstrual
Syndrome (</span></span><span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial;">acne, tender breasts, bloating, cravings, feeling tired,
irritability, and mood changes)</span><span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: arial;">, amenorrhea (absence of </span><span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial;">menstruation</span><span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: arial;">), menorrhagia (heavy </span><span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial;">menstruation</span><span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: arial;">), dysmenorrhea (painful

or infrequent menstruation). These may be caused by either a hormonal
imbalance or by a condition such as uterine fibroids, uterine cancer,
endometriosis or poly-cystic ovarian syndrome. Acupuncture and holistic
medicine (such as nutrition, supplements and herbal remedies) are able to restore
balance to the body to regulate the menstrual cycle and eliminate discomfort
and treats various forms of abnormal menstruation.</span></div>

<b><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;">Menopause</span></b><span style="color: black; font-family: arial;"><br />
The average age of menopause is 50 years old. Some women stop
menstruating without any symptoms. Other women experience hot flashes,
night sweats, mood swings, intermittent bleeding, vaginal dryness, poor
concentration, fatigue and other symptoms. Women experiencing these
symptoms have a few options. The conventional treatment is hormone
replacement therapy, however, if the women ever had breast or uterine cancer,
she might not be a candidate for hormone replacement therapy (because of the
concern for recurrence). </span><span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial;">Acupuncture and holistic medicine (such as
nutrition, supplements and herbal remedies) are also able to restore balance to
the body to regulate the hormones and eliminate these uncomfortable symptoms to
help this transition in life to go more smoothly and seamlessly in a natural
way. </span><span style="color: black; font-family: arial;"></span></div>

<b><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;">Ovarian Cysts, Uterine Fibroids, &
Endometriosis</span></b><span style="color: black; font-family: arial;"><br />
</span><span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial;">Many
women have benign ovarian cysts filled with fluid and this is considered normal
and nothing to worry about. The water retention may wax and wane
depending on where the woman is in her cycle. Other ovarian cysts can
be cancerous and early treatment is vital. If left untreated, cysts
can cause complications including infection (the cyst fills with
bacteria and pus, and becomes an abscess). If the abscess bursts
inside the body, there is a risk of blood poisoning (septicemia). </span><span style="color: black; font-family: arial;"></span></div>

<span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial;">Due to lifestyle
factors such as poor diet, environmental pollution, stress, and hormonal
imbalances, PCOS is becoming a more prevalent condition. </span><span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: arial;">Symptoms include:
infertility, <em><span style="font-family: arial; font-style: normal;">acne</span></em>,
hirsutism, and male pattern <em><span style="font-family: arial; font-style: normal;">balding</span></em></span><span style="color: black; font-family: arial;">. This condition can be treated
successfully with acupuncture and holistic medicine.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-clip: border-box; background-origin: padding-box; background-position-x: 0%; background-position-y: 0%; background: white; margin: 0in; orphans: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: arial;">Uterine fibroids are very common and most
often benign. Many women donāt even know that they have them and they
shrink during menopause when estrogen levels decline. Other women may
experience heavy or painful periods and rarely may develop uterine cancer.
</span><span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial;">If left untreated, fibroids can
continue to grow, both in size and number. As these tumors take over the uterus
the symptoms can become worse. The heavy bleeding and discomfort may worsen and
may be accompanied by severe cramping. Acupuncture can help to prevent
and treat uterine fibroids. By improving circulation to the uterus, it
promotes the bodyās ability to heal itself and the growths may shrink in size
or completely dissolve. </span><span style="color: black; font-family: arial;"></span></div>

<span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial;">Symptoms of
endometriosis includes pelvic or belly pain which might start before the
menstrual cycle and last for several days. It can feel sharp and
stabbing, and it usually doesnāt go away with medication. Some women report
that the gnawing or throbbing sensation can be rather severe.</span><span style="color: black; font-family: arial;"> </span><span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial;">Acupuncture can help to prevent and treat
endometriosis. By improving circulation to the uterus, it promotes the
bodyās ability to heal itself and the hormonal balancing helps to regulate this
condition which usually corresponds to high levels of estrogen in the body. </span></div>

<b><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;">Weight loss</span></b></div>

to reach their ideal weight faster by regulating internal organs, boosting
metabolism, aiding digestion and elimination, reducing water retention and
decreasing appetite. For best results, it needs to be done on a regular
basis and the lifestyle changes need to be permanent. A healthy weight
loss is with a personal trainer is expensive and slow, about 1-2 pounds per
week. Our rapid weight loss program has incredible results. No shakes, no bars,

<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif" style="font-size: 14.85px;">Natural or holistic medicine has a foundation of nutrition, physical activity, and lifestyle.

<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif"><br /></span><span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">Nutrition is a very broad topic. In general, Americans are consuming way too many processed foods and not enough fresh fruits and vegetables. This is the leading cause of obesity and diabetes which affects 1 in 3 people in the USA. Even vegetarians who eat organic produce may have nutrient deficiencies due to the mineral depletion of our soil. Natural supplements can help compensate for that and assist people to achieve optimal health and wellbeing. Below is a list of common health concerns with corresponding natural supplement recommendations. Each recommendation is a hyperlink which will take you to a specific product on Amazon.</span></div>

<i><span style="color: blue;">Our fitness, health and wellbeing is in our hands regardless of what is going on externally. </span></i><i><span style="color: blue;">It is a responsibility that we cannot afford to ignore.

<b>FITNESS IN THE AGE OF THE PANDEMIC</b><br />
Well, times they are a changin' here in Florida with another round of business closures. And we gotta work with what we've got. LA Fitness in South Florida was closed from March until June due to the pandemic but when they opened up, although I came on opening day, it was not the same. It was nice on reopening day that all of the free weights were in their place for a moment but there were new challenges that made returning there undesirable. Even though they set up sanitization centers, require masks, and took away 1/2 or more of the cardio equipment and also taped up every other machine, I didn't feel comfortable working out in the gym. Even though I am not afraid of getting sick, I felt like there were the same amount of people there and half of the equipment so I felt like people were too close for comfort to me. So back to square 1...<br />
<br />
Due to the resurgence in case numbers, there is even talk of parks and beaches in South Florida closing again. Walking, jogging, and riding your bike outdoors is challenging during monsoon season/ summer in Florida with our daily unpredictable rain storms. Take advantage of good weather days by talking a walk in the park if it is open or around your neighborhood (with a good breathable mask if you have to). I love using my <a href="https://amzn.to/3eab3Rh" target="_blank">ankle weights</a> when I go for a walk or even going up and down a step in the park for 20 minutes to get more out of my workout. Try it!<br />
<br />
While exercising, I always wear my <a href="https://amzn.to/2Dlm6KB" target="_blank">sweat bands</a>. I have different colors to match different outfits. I use the one on the right wrist to wipe sweat off of my face and I put ~10 drops of <a href="https://amzn.to/3gFA6NN" target="_blank">essential oils</a> on the sweatband of my left wrist and sniff it for a burst of energy while I am training. I love using the wrist bands for cycling and running. When you start to feel a little sluggish, it helps to put more pep in your step! Essential oils have great <b>health benefits</b> such as rosemary for memory, peppermint for sore muscles, ginger for inflammation, lavender for tranquility, and frankincense for immune function.<br />
<br />
Another important exercise tool to have is an <a href="https://amzn.to/3ekSJFm" target="_blank">exercise mat</a>. The one in the link is great because you can roll it up and put it in your car and take it to the park or beach (if those options are available where you live). You can use it for doing planks, sit-ups, pushups, yoga, mat pilates, stretching and more. It is especially important on hard surfaces such as tiles, hardwood floors and even the outdoors to protect your joints and provide padding and comfort for ease of movement. When using the <a href="https://amzn.to/2AGtPC6" target="_blank">ab roller</a>, for example, an exercise mat is important for cushioning and protecting the knees. I recommend doing 3 sets of 10 repetitions 3 times per week.<br />

<br />
Another great workout that only takes a few minutes is <a href="https://amzn.to/3ffITps" target="_blank">jump rope</a>. Many boxers use jump ropes as a means to quickly elevate heart rate, pump blood to the muscles and warm up for a more strenuous workout. It is a great form of cardiovascular workout as it boosts circulation and coordination and does not require much time at all. If you have knee, hip or spine injuries this is not the activity for you--more non-impact options below. <u>Alternate activities that are similar to jumping rope and require no equipment include jumping jacks and burpees</u>. These also achieve the same kinds of benefits.<br />
<br />
<i>Jumping is fun because it connects us with our inner child</i>. I am a strong believer that whatever form of exercise(s) you chose to do, it should be FUN/enjoyable! Otherwise if it is just a chore to check off your list, it is easy to push it off and eventually it can stop becoming a habit, and <b>we want to build a lifetime of physical activity to prevent all the potential illnesses that go hand in hand with a sedentary lifestyle.</b> If you want to nurture and honor your inner child, consider getting a <a href="https://amzn.to/2ZSEYs7" target="_blank">mini-trampoline</a> and using that as an instrument of fitness and fun while living your best life. You can even get one with a <a href="https://amzn.to/2O7I1qL" target="_blank">handle bar</a> for additional safety and balance by holding on while you do twists or splits in the air, if you are so inclined. So go ahead and jump for joy!<br />

You can take <a href="https://amzn.to/3gF1GKX" target="_blank">exercise bands</a> with you where-ever you go because they are compact and fit into your purse, backpack etc.(I store them in the small pouch under my bicycle seat) to get a little resistance training in. This helps to keep your muscles strong and prevent muscular atrophy. Add these <a href="https://amzn.to/2ZcinYm" target="_blank">resistance bands</a> to your gear for an additional strength training options. When I ride my bike to the beach and back (12 miles roundtrip) I like to wear my <a href="https://amzn.to/2ZOK5cJ" target="_blank">neoprene shorts</a> to make me sweat more (this helps with reducing excess water weight, inflammation and inches). I also like to wear them in the swimming pool for triathlon training because it makes me more buoyant and simulates salt water buoyancy. When the shorts are in the laundry, I alternate using my neoprene <a href="https://amzn.to/31X9PX3" target="_blank">belt</a>. The belt is also great to wear while <b>weight training</b> for <b>back support</b> and it also helps with maintaining <a href="https://amzn.to/3gELJo8" target="_blank">good posture</a>.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
As you can see, the good news is that there is <i>plenty</i> you can do at home or outside without needing a gym or relying on public parks to be open! <span style="background-color: yellow;">Exercise is vital not only for physical health and wellness but also for mental health! Exercise releases endorphins and serotonin which are neurotransmitters responsible for feelings of wellbeing, happiness, and preventing and treating depression and anxiety. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i style="background-color: yellow;">There are so many benefits to exercise and you only need 20 minutes per day.</i></div>
<br />
<b>MEASURING PROGRESS/ SUCCESS</b><br />
When you start working with a personal trainer, they take before and after measurements. I encourage you before starting an exercise program (<span style="color: red;">first consult with your primary care provider</span>) to also take your own measurements. You will be shocked and happily surprised at how much your body can transform in 1 week, 3, weeks,6 weeks etc. Taking weekly measurements helps you to see results and improvements and motivates you to continue. <a href="https://amzn.to/2ZM16V0" target="_blank">This scale</a>, for example, give you your weight, body mass index (BMI), % body fat, muscle mass, hydration and bone mass. For a small investment, I think it's gives you a lot of valuable data to measure your progress and keep you on track. Also, sometimes you may have a stall in weight loss but may still be losing inches. We all know that muscle weighs more than fat so I recommend to also take circumference measurements with a <a href="https://amzn.to/2Zc6zp9" target="_blank">measuring tape</a> of the abdomen, hips, (and chest, arms and legs optional) so that you can have more evidence of your success and progress. If you already have a scale you love, you can opt for the hand held BMI and body fat measuring devices such as <a href="https://amzn.to/2Zb5HRD" target="_blank">this one</a>. I use all 3 of these in my practice to get the most information and to track the most transformation.<br />
<br />
<b>LOW IMPACT SPORTS</b><br />
A non-impact sport that is great for anyone with joint or spine issues is swimming. If you have access to a clean pool or safe open water, take advantage of that and swim. Swimming is a great workout and also doesn't take long to boost your heart rate and derive health benefits such as improving metabolism and more. I love my <a href="https://amzn.to/323ZJ6O" target="_blank">goggles</a> (seen in the left photo below) that I bought online and use them every time I train for the swimming portion of my triathlon. They provide great protection from the sun and the elements.<br />

Let's talk more about cardiovascular exercise. What additional options do you have? We can't always rely on the outdoors because of problematic weather such as thunder and strong winds which make it unsafe to be outside sometimes. So we need to have more viable inside options. You can <b>dance</b>, watch a yoga video, find tai chi, qi gong, zumba, belly dancing or other movement videos on DVD or online and do them daily.<br />
<br />
I enjoy using my <a href="https://amzn.to/3iHHutO" target="_blank">cycling peddler</a>. I used to keep it under my desk in my office and use it at work! It's compact and stores easily in a closet at home. The pro of this device is that since there is no computer, I can use it on Shabbat (the Sabbath) but the con is that it is a bit flimsy so in order to make it work, I have to prop it up against something so that it doesn't move. Here is a demo video that I made for a friend of mine using <a href="https://amzn.to/2Z990bZ" target="_blank">light hand weights</a>. This item is a must have for the home for upper body workouts! There are heavier, sturdier versions of this device which may be a better buy for most people, like <a href="https://amzn.to/3iH3CEF" target="_blank">this one</a>. I like to listen to educational videos and lectures while I am working out. It makes the time pass faster.<br />

I also love my little <a href="https://amzn.to/2O9miPq" target="_blank">stepper</a> It is very compact and I can do it in my bedroom while watching TV. Even though it comes with built in resistance bands, I like to alternate with using my <a href="https://amzn.to/2Z990bZ" target="_blank">hand weights</a>. For upper body workout, I recommend this pull up bar <a href="https://amzn.to/38CaSNy" target="_blank">device</a> is easy to assemble and even easy to pack in a suitcase (been there done that!). You will be surprised at how much you can improve. In the beginning if you can't do pull ups, just jump up and hold yourself in position to build your upper body strength until you can go up and down.<br />

<b>SELF CARE AT HOME</b><br />
Getting to physical therapy appointments and other health care sessions can be more tricky now that social distancing measures prevent offices from having people in the waiting room. Well, the good news is that there are things you can do at home. If you have any <b>herniated discs</b>, for example, I have found that the best therapy for me was ordering this <a href="https://amzn.to/3iKP9HH" target="_blank">inversion table</a>. In 2008 when I was 8 months pregnant I had a slip and fall injury and herniated 2 discs in my neck. The nerve damage was so severe that I could not make a fist with my right hand (and I am right handed). I had to learn to brush my teeth with my left hand. The inversion table healed me (Thank G-d). It is easy to assemble and the best investment I could have made!<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
A trick of the trade that Bruce Lee allegedly used on his whole body to tone and exercise his muscles is a <a href="https://amzn.to/38CZpxf" target="_blank">TENS machine</a>. This device helps the muscles to passively contract and relax producing a boost in metabolism and resulting in better muscle tone and definition. If you have any <b>pain condition</b> it can be used as <b>physical therapy</b>. I used it when I was training for a body building competition and it seemed to work for me. I recommend doing two 15 minute cycles on different settings, for example vibration and tapping. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Working your muscles out in ways that they are not used to can make them sore. A <a href="https://amzn.to/2O6TMxZ" target="_blank">foam roller</a> allows you to use your own body weight to self <b>massage</b> your tight to sore muscles and helps to bring relief to any discomfort. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>NUTRITION </b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
They say that 6 pack abs are made in the kitchen, so exercising without eating right won't get you far. I use these <a href="https://amzn.to/3iFg6gd" target="_blank">glass meal prep containers</a> to prepare healthy meals. They are oven and dish washer safe. I love them and have traveled with them. They are very practical and really a necessity if competing in body building, but also good to take to work or other places to be prepared with good food. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The following natural supplements are also very helpful and beneficial in fitness training. <a href="https://amzn.to/3gAqpju" target="_blank">L carnitine</a> is an amino acid used in the fitness industry for <b>fat burning</b>. Unlike the hundreds of products on the market that promise results, this one actually delivers! When training for competition, I took 3 shots per day. Now I take 1 shot per day and I add it to my daily morning <i>organic</i> <a href="https://amzn.to/38EqgJl" target="_blank">green tea</a>. I steep 2 green tea bags (anti-oxidant) in 52 oz of boiled water with a pinch of fresh grated ginger (for digestion and circulation). If I don't have fresh ginger then I replace 1 tea bag with a bag of <i>organic</i> <a href="https://amzn.to/2ZdKvdF" target="_blank">ginger tea</a>. I add <a href="https://amzn.to/3ffIyTM" target="_blank">benefiber</a> 1-2 packs because the <b>Standard American Diet</b> only has 8g of fiber and the recommended daily allowance is 25g per day. I add 1 dropper full of <a href="https://amzn.to/3iQpRZ5" target="_blank">chlorophyll</a> (alkaline pH, detox/cleanse and nutrient rich) and the <a href="https://amzn.to/322qkkW" target="_blank">juice</a> of 1 lemon or lime. When lemons are 89 cents each and limes are 10 for $1, I go for the limes! This is what I drink every morning and it's delicious!</div>

If you want a <span style="color: #0b5394;">P</span><a href="https://amzn.to/2ZSQkMG" target="_blank">LAIN protein powder</a> that has no taste which you can add to recipes such as bread, pancakes, or any baked goods or if you are vegetarian or vegan and putting it into your sauces and recipes, this is my recommendation and what we use in my home.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
For fruit smoothies, acai bowls, and coffee mixes (as an alternative to milk), I like to blend Sun Warrior <a href="https://amzn.to/3iCGLKm" target="_blank">Vanilla Protein Powder</a>. It is vegan and kosher and yummy! They also have a delicious <a href="https://amzn.to/38PVRId" target="_blank">mocha flavor</a>.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
For chocolate flavor, I use <a href="https://amzn.to/2CiqoSJ" target="_blank">this one</a>. It is much more expensive but it is much more than just a protein powder. It has additional ingredients which would be equivalent to taking an additional 2 bottles of supplements, which in my humble opinion, justifies the price. It's a quality and packet with vital nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, herbs and enzymes.</div>

In life pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional. We <i>can</i> be triumphant in difficult times despite the extenuating circumstances. We cannot use the global crisis as an excuse to fall into poor health and wellbeing. We <i>must</i> do what is within our power to control and that is: what we eat and how we move our bodies!</div>

<b>ABOUT THE AUTHOR </b></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
Most of you know me as a health care practitioner (<b>Naturopathic Doctor</b> and <b>Licensed Acupuncture Physician)</b>. In Florida, Acupuncturists are primary care providers and we can bill some insurances. What you may not know about me is that I am a <b>certified group fitness*</b> and <b>certified mat pilates*</b> instructor since 2002. I taught mat pilates at various gyms in Seattle, Washington while attending graduate school and have been a competitive athlete for the last 4 decades. My love for sports started in elementary school. I played indoor speed soccer, soft ball, basketball and ping pong competitively in after school tournaments at the <b>Boys & Girls Club </b>and I also performed in ballet, tap and jazz dance recitals.</div>

<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
Because of my athletic inclination, I was regularly chosen as <b>team captain</b> in PE (physical education) at school and I dominated in hand ball, tetherball, kickball, dodge ball and color war and led our team to victories. In high school, I competed and lettered in <b>varsity</b> track and field and ran cross-country. In college and beyond, I took surfing, martial arts and kick-boxing, yoga, African dance and tennis (no credit courses) because I always like to try new things and expand my sports repertoire with new skills that help in my overall athletic performance (now known as cross-training but didn't exist then). In graduate school, I took up Latin Ballroom dancing, started running half marathons, marathons (even a rollerblading marathon around Lake Washington in the rain!) and ultra-cycling events (inter-state!).</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
After grad school, I competed in dozens of 5K races (even came in top 3 a couple times) and in a couple of body building competitions (and even got a trophy and a metal). This coming fall, (unless the events are rescheduled due to the pandemic again), I am scheduled to compete in my first Spartan (mud obstacle) race and my first sprint triathlon. Now that you have a little taste of my athletic background, you can understand why it is important to me<span style="background-color: yellow;"><b> to share with you the methods that I personally use to stay fit regardless of quarantine or no quarantine</b>. </span></div>

According to the US Census Bureau in 2017, an estimated 39.7 million Americans were living in poverty. It is clear that we would benefit from <b>financial education</b> in this country. Maybe it should be taught in high school along with home economics and other practical classes that prepare people for the "real world."<br />
<br />
The good news is that it is never too late to educate yourself on how to improve your financial status. Knowledge is power and with this knowledge there is a potential not only to improve your quality of life, but also your mental, emotional and physical health and wellbeing!<br />
<br />
Luckily our generation is "standing on the shoulders of giants," meaning, that we can learn from the brilliant and successful people who came before us, without needing to reinvent the wheel.<br />

I took a course form that list on the Science of Well-Being from Yale and it was excellent. Even my 11 year old daughter completed a couple of courses from Stanford and Harvard!<br />
<br />
The classes are free but if you want a certificate you have to pay between $39-$99 or so depending on the school and the class. We got some certificates such as this one.<br />

He has studied and complied wisdom from many masters such as Tony Robbins and others so his classes are well researched and he also teaches from his own personal experiences with business success and failure. His courses are educational, inspirational and practical. It gave me fresh new ideas and excitement about my business after I thought I had already "tried it all." His coaches are helpful and insightful for helping people remove their personal blockages to manifesting their dreams and goals.<br />
<br />
He even has meditations to help people to realize their financial dreams.<br />

<i><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure</span></i><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">. The best way to deal with stress
is not to have it at all. But that is easier said than done. Even
if we could eliminate stress, it has a way of popping right back up again.
Life, work, and relationships can trigger all sorts of emotions, pleasant and
not. Having stress reducing rituals such as prayer and/or meditation, a
daily exercise, dance or yoga practice, health promoting nutrition, and
supplements, <span style="background-color: white; color: black; display: inline; float: none; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">ample hydration, </span>and holistic energy balancing treatments are a solid strategy for

<b><span style="color: red; font-family: "arial";">Stress Management / Prevention</span></b></div>
<div style="background: white; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: "arial";">Traditional Chinese acupuncture has
stood the test of time and is one of the best-known complementary and
alternative therapies. Acupuncture stimulates the nervous system and
alters the processing and perception of pain signals and also
releases natural painkillers, such as endorphins and serotonin in the nervous
system. Acupuncture's successful use for various stress conditions
has been proven. Many people develop various health conditions from
infertility, addiction, and gastritis to arthritis and many others as a
response to physical and/or emotional stress. Acupuncture has helped to
lower stress levels and make people feel calm, cool and collected. When a
person is in a good state of mind, they are less likely to suffer from
autoimmune disorders and less likely to get sick. For these reasons,
acupuncture is recommended to be used as a means of <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">disease prevention</b>.
The use of complementary therapies and specifically acupuncture in
the treatment of stress and stress-related conditions, helps people to
feel an improvement in quality of life, reduces anxiety and insomnia and helps
to support an optimistic and focused mindset. </span></div>
<br />
<div style="background: white; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">Meditation is a helpful tool to manage
stress and stay calm, cool and collected despite external circumstances.
It can be utilized in the morning for prevention (to start your day on the
right foot) or in the evening as a decompression and winding down from a busy
day. Or BOTH!</span></div>

consider your stress levels to be high, you can still benefit from having

in the Winter (or during weather changes or travel), then you could benefit
from acupuncture. Acupuncture helps to stimulate the immune system which is
your bodyās primary line of defense against allergens or pathogens (such as
viruses and bacteria). By keeping your body strong with proper nutrition,
hydration, physical activity, sleep, and acupuncture, you can avoid getting put
out of commission the next flu, cold or corona virus season. With so many
advantages, such as improved energy, better quality of sleep, calmness and
better concentration, acupuncture is recommended to be part of everyoneās

<span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: "arial";">Over the last three
decades there has been an increasing interest in acupuncture treatment of
stress management and disease prevention around the world. Traditional Chinese
Medicine (TCM) has been utilized in China for more than 2,000 years,
and it has been practiced in treatment of all health conditions (whether as a
primary mode of treatment or as adjunctive care). TCM is effective at improving
immune function, improving memory, and protecting against various neurological disorders.
Given that TCM is potentially effective in the prevention of disease, it has
been suggested that TCM may be the ideal choice in the future for the treatment
for prevention and health maintenance. </span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial";"></span></div>

<div style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">For best results it is recommended to do
acupuncture together with other non-invasive holistic therapies such as
exercise, meditation and nutritious eating, which our Doctor of Oriental
Medicine can guide you on. When used in the supportive context as part of
a wellness plan, <span style="background: white;">acupuncture is an
effective, simple and economical method for achieving optimal health and
wellbeing.</span></span></div>

<span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 10.0pt;">Over the last three decades there has been
an increasing interest in <span style="font-family: "arial";">acupuncture</span> <span style="font-family: "arial";">treatment</span> of substance abuse
around the world. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has been utilized in China
for more than 2,000 years, and it has been practiced in treatment of
substance addiction and non-substance addictions. TCM have efficacy in the
rehabilitation of abnormal physical problems induced by chronic drug use,
including improving immune function, increasing working memory, and protecting
against neurological <span style="font-family: "arial";">disorders</span>.
Given that TCM is potentially effective in the prevention of relapse, it has
been suggested that TCM may be the ideal choice in the future for the treatment
of many types of addiction. </span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 10.0pt;">The neurochemical and behavioral evidence showed that</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 10.0pt;">acupuncture</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 10.0pt;">'s role in suppressing
the reinforcing effects of abused drugs takes place by modulating mesolimbic
dopamine neurons. Also, several brain neurotransmitter systems such as

together with other non-invasive holistic therapies such as counseling,
narcotics anonymous (alcoholics anonymous, overeaterās anonymous and the like),
exercise and nutritious eating and natural remedies such as homeopathics.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Overconsuming

<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 10.0pt;">Smoking
can be one of the most difficult habits to break. Sometimes people try on their
own to quit using nicotine gum, patches, and pills but they still find it hard

treatment by a well-meaning friend or family member, it wonāt work for them
because acupuncture is a support system, it cannot work against somebodyās

detoxify the organs of elimination and decrease the irritability associated

<span style="background: white;">Many people turn to alcohol or narcotics to numb
their feelings and escape their problems.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Alcohol, however, only makes things worse for them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Instead of running away from life,
acupuncture helps a person to feel calm, cool, and collected and they are thus
better able to cope with the challenges and pressures of life.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is also a wonderful treatment for
post-traumatic stress disorder.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The way
that it works is by releasing serotonin from the brain.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Serotonin in the neurotransmitter thatās
responsible for feeling of wellbeing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>When a person is clear, focused and level-headed, they can make the best

</span>Acupuncture </span>can reduce cravings, help to detoxify the organs of
elimination and decrease the irritability associated with withdrawing from

<span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 10.0pt;">Traditional Chinese <span style="font-family: "arial";">acupuncture</span> has stood the test of
time and is one of the best-known complementary and alternative
therapies. <span style="font-family: "arial";">Acupuncture</span> stimulates
the nervous system and alters the processing and perception of <span style="font-family: "arial";">pain</span> signals
and also releases natural painkillers, such as endorphins and serotonin in the
nervous system. <span style="font-family: "arial";">Acupuncture</span>'s
successful use for various <span style="font-family: "arial";">stress</span> conditions has been proven.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Many people develop eating disorders as a
response to psychological pain.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Acupuncture
has helped people to deal with post-traumatic stress disorder and also with
substance abuse.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For these reasons, it
can also be an effective tool in treating anorexia, bulimia, overeating, and
body image perception.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The use of
complementary therapies and specifically <span style="font-family: "arial";">acupuncture</span> in the treatment
of <span style="font-family: "arial";">anorexia</span> nervosa,
for example, may provide important adjunctive care to allow a comprehensive
treatment approach that potentially improves quality of life, reduces anxiety
and instils hope for recovery. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">In Holistic medicine, the prevention and the treatment often involve the same ingredients (in different amounts). And as they say, "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." This means that it's easier to prevent illness than to treat it once a person already has it.</span></div>

Stress can contribute to or trigger a wide range of health and mental health conditions including anxiety and depression and autoimmune and inflammatory conditions.

Many countries around the world including Italy, China, Peru and others have been on lock down (quarantine) for 2-4 weeks in order to prevent the spread of the Corona Virus and it is likely that we will be next. This practice has been successful in stopping the spread of CV. The only places people are allowed to go during lock down are supermarkets, gas stations, and the pharmacy.</div>

Until then, since most of us are still working and in public places, we must strengthen our immune system. 1,000 mg of Vitamin C taken 3 times per day between meals is great to boost the immune system. Other things to boost the immune system include: zinc 30 mg per day, garlic (1 clove per day), fresh grated ginger, raw onions, mushroom extracts, fresh fruits, berries, nuts and vegetables, bone broth etc. It is important to get good sleep, <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.sott.net%252Farticle%252F430704-Coronavirus-and-the-sun-A-lesson-from-the-1918-influenza-pandemic%253Ffbclid%253DIwAR3tLrh6ci32fCb8mf61U-J4mBoVW42oNgtXSiDG4hshsMdC0ceprMAhFlo%26h%3DAT08aGJflEFCIS-cIBezSfdC396JdGtlLDK4SysdHYUlKHwNBo51E4Ho6qARtVFfJeJ5l9tE6lDitNflMoYxUCUlX6QVZBqyLR8Z2oClth92zW_Et6Q8uniBhRaVDSN54PM9KD4I7jYXi7JXHGg&source=gmail&ust=1584551052846000&usg=AFQjCNGEtcpVZSwYBCcLeF5rjaRLHfYwfg" href="https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sott.net%2Farticle%2F430704-Coronavirus-and-the-sun-A-lesson-from-the-1918-influenza-pandemic%3Ffbclid%3DIwAR3tLrh6ci32fCb8mf61U-J4mBoVW42oNgtXSiDG4hshsMdC0ceprMAhFlo&h=AT08aGJflEFCIS-cIBezSfdC396JdGtlLDK4SysdHYUlKHwNBo51E4Ho6qARtVFfJeJ5l9tE6lDitNflMoYxUCUlX6QVZBqyLR8Z2oClth92zW_Et6Q8uniBhRaVDSN54PM9KD4I7jYXi7JXHGg" rel="noopener nofollow" style="color: #385898; font-family: inherit; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank">fresh air</a>, and 15 minutes of direct sunlight without sunscreen for the natural vitamin D synthesis in the skin which had been used to treat <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov%252Fpmc%252Farticles%252FPMC4504358%252F%253Ffbclid%253DIwAR16zeN5zbK4CU3PQJDN0IS739ftS-_e8QCxTg2aq3CwZ7AUVCnl8jPXiWo%26h%3DAT01tTTflF55FDF4Ra9_9cevbQq5mIWEf7U52va4qfQbovp2_vLEiYrJzATgae0IsNjYmMQZ5k2T3lLuN1ER3vpBKGpICDwxAEv0Jzk9HeDvs65lfDY7vb6oApr6LotPDPVnSrLYt3hq-EddQ_0&source=gmail&ust=1584551052846000&usg=AFQjCNF-0izhnLM_nfE7iXrk1i6BjMt_bA" href="https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov%2Fpmc%2Farticles%2FPMC4504358%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIwAR16zeN5zbK4CU3PQJDN0IS739ftS-_e8QCxTg2aq3CwZ7AUVCnl8jPXiWo&h=AT01tTTflF55FDF4Ra9_9cevbQq5mIWEf7U52va4qfQbovp2_vLEiYrJzATgae0IsNjYmMQZ5k2T3lLuN1ER3vpBKGpICDwxAEv0Jzk9HeDvs65lfDY7vb6oApr6LotPDPVnSrLYt3hq-EddQ_0" rel="noopener nofollow" style="color: #385898; font-family: inherit; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank">other viral epidemics</a> in the past.</div>

What to do if you are stuck at home? Use this time as an opportunity for growth, self improvement, and relationship bolstering. Here are some ideas:</div>

1. <span style="font-family: inherit; font-weight: 600;">Share a healthy meal with a family member</span>. Many of us skip meals, eat on the run, or just don't have organized eating habits. This is the time to slow down and eat consciously and deliberately and together. Since grocery stores are still open (perhaps with limited hours), you can still find a lot of the ingredients for various recipes, and if not you can improvise! A delicious breakfast I ate with my daughter who is homeschooling today is an acai bowl. I use a basic recipe and <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.chelseasmessyapron.com%252Facai-bowl%252F%253Ffbclid%253DIwAR2RHUoQg0TLgobGWtjSkPhhpaRLSDdaZ3PUVZSEfRR5k-S5Unur6OMywOU%26h%3DAT27CmdGsGdNof_DhuRm63XyK3k6R1lFWoImQqZvtjo4xK2rOy6ZajhCCzL6MnwhRv8lRZCnnTplwZAUwp1AYsH6TFIfi8R1IwpnWdTfI6px_F2TOH8lKJREDCUIL6_L49mThlPu4g6NljcCdro&source=gmail&ust=1584551052846000&usg=AFQjCNH9rjIkrzOhEXoEod-96WlnCRVoTw" href="https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.chelseasmessyapron.com%2Facai-bowl%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIwAR2RHUoQg0TLgobGWtjSkPhhpaRLSDdaZ3PUVZSEfRR5k-S5Unur6OMywOU&h=AT27CmdGsGdNof_DhuRm63XyK3k6R1lFWoImQqZvtjo4xK2rOy6ZajhCCzL6MnwhRv8lRZCnnTplwZAUwp1AYsH6TFIfi8R1IwpnWdTfI6px_F2TOH8lKJREDCUIL6_L49mThlPu4g6NljcCdro" rel="noopener nofollow" style="color: #385898; font-family: inherit; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank">make substitutions such as almond milk instead of apple juice</a> and I add a scoop of plain protein powder to offset all the fructose (natural sugar). This is not something we can usually do on a weekday (it's more of a Sunday treat) so we can cherish the chance to break out of the normal routine and make the morning special with a delicious and nutritious meal. A healthy meal is a great line of defense and spending quality time with a loved one is priceless. Maybe add a gratitude prayer before and/or after the meal. Use the extra time to explore a few new recipes for dishes you haven't made yet but would like to try.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #1c1e21; direction: ltr; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 17px; margin: 0px auto 28px; white-space: pre-wrap; width: 700px;">
2. <span style="font-family: inherit; font-weight: 600;">Exercise.</span> The gyms might be closed but don't let that stunt your creativity! Get your favorite playlist and have a dance party, dust off that old cardio equipment or workout DVDs that you never use and get your money's worth. There are a plethora of free yoga, qi gong, tai chi, belly dancing and other exercise videos on youtube that you can watch and do in your living room. You can do jumping jacks, burpees, sit ups, plank, squats, lunges, push ups and much more without needing much space at all.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #1c1e21; direction: ltr; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 17px; margin: 0px auto 28px; white-space: pre-wrap; width: 700px;">
3. <span style="font-family: inherit; font-weight: 600;">Meditation and/or prayer or journaling.</span> This is a great time to introspect. Give another meaning to "going inside." Ask yourself important questions about your goals and dreams and plans and be still and welcome the answers that come to you. There are so many things we put on the back burner because we "don't have time." Guess what, now we have time! What a blessing! Time is the most precious commodity of them all. Let's utilize it positively and create healthy habits to take beyond the lock down! Start a gratitude journal and count all your daily blessings.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #1c1e21; direction: ltr; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 17px; margin: 0px auto 28px; white-space: pre-wrap; width: 700px;">
4. <span style="font-family: inherit; font-weight: 600;">Household projects.</span> Here is an opportunity to clear your clutter. Organize your closets, shelves, drawers, basement, attic, yard/garden. Our space is important for the way we function. Getting rid of things that we no longer use or need is very liberating on many levels. Looking around at an organized and clean home is a wonderful feeling.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #1c1e21; direction: ltr; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 17px; margin: 0px auto 28px; white-space: pre-wrap; width: 700px;">
5. <span style="font-family: inherit; font-weight: 600;">Personal Growth. </span>We have access to so many wonderful educational tools. Read books, watch Ted Talks on any subject that interests you, watch (Netflix) documentaries such as What the Health, The Game Changers, Forks over Knives, Super size me, The business of cancer, The business of being born, vaccine-nation, and others. There are audible books, study the bible or review other texts to improve your job performance.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #1c1e21; direction: ltr; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 17px; margin: 0px auto 28px; white-space: pre-wrap; width: 700px;">
6. <span style="font-family: inherit; font-weight: 600;">Crafts. </span>You may have a special skill that you don't have time to cultivate such as painting, piano, sewing, poetry or creating a photo album book of your favorite digital photos. This is a time to pick up creative projects and perhaps even discover a hidden talent. You can create a vision board, draw, sing, write a short story.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #1c1e21; direction: ltr; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 17px; margin: 0px auto 28px; white-space: pre-wrap; width: 700px;">
7. <span style="font-family: inherit; font-weight: 600;">Plan ahead.</span> You can do research for a blog article, make changes to your website, come up with a new advertisement or campaign for work. Many events (industrial and social) had to be canceled because of the social distancing recommendations. Start looking into replacement or substitute events, races, and gatherings.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #1c1e21; direction: ltr; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 17px; margin: 0px auto 28px; white-space: pre-wrap; width: 700px;">
8. <span style="font-family: inherit; font-weight: 600;">Self care.</span> Light a candle and take a hot bath with epsom salts, baking soda and your favorite essential oils. An oatmeal bath can be quite luxurious too (1 cup in pantyhose with a knot) . Cleanse, exfoliate, and moisturize your skin and use your favorite facial mask. Listen to relaxation music, binaural beats, or a guided meditation. Take care of your nails and your hair. Exchange massages with a family member. Enjoy aroma therapy in the form of an essential oil diffuser, incense, or scented candles. Use a Himalayan rock salt lamp for the benefits of the negative ions. Remember self care is not selfish. Self care is self preservation. When we are calm and peaceful we can make better decisions and enjoy life more. It benefits us and those we love.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #1c1e21; direction: ltr; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 17px; margin: 0px auto 28px; white-space: pre-wrap; width: 700px;">
9. <span style="font-family: inherit; font-weight: 600;">Think positive thoughts.</span> We are bombarded by negative messages in the media so we need to be mindful about what we are ingesting mentally. Positive affirmations such as, "this too shall pass" or "one day at a time" can help us to get through challenging times by staying present and positive and not letting ourselves become overwhelmed by all the potentially anxiety-provoking things happening around us.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #1c1e21; direction: ltr; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 17px; margin: 0px auto 28px; white-space: pre-wrap; width: 700px;">
10. <span style="font-family: inherit; font-weight: 600;">Stay hydrated.</span> Drink lots of alkaline or spring water or herbal tea. Dehydration makes us susceptible to illness and fatigue. Drinking 8 glasses of 16 ounces will help our bodies to flush out impurities, and keep us healthy. Cold infusions with berries, oranges, lemon, mint, ginger, or cucumbers can be very refreshing and provide added benefits.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #1c1e21; direction: ltr; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 17px; margin: 0px auto 28px; white-space: pre-wrap; width: 700px;">
11. <span style="font-family: inherit; font-weight: 600;">Play games with family members.</span> Such as xbox/nintendo/PS4/wii, cards, charades, board games, hangman, connect four and more. Or watch a movie/show together. Spending time with family members is a luxury we often miss out on even though we may live under the same roof. Having a game night or special family time can be a nice way to improve relationships.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #1c1e21; direction: ltr; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 17px; margin: 0px auto 28px; white-space: pre-wrap; width: 700px;">
12. <span style="font-family: inherit; font-weight: 600;">Breathe.</span> One of the best ways to change your mood, attitude, or state of mind is to change your breath. There are many different breath meditations in yoga involving, for example, breathing in one nostril and exhaling out the other one to relax the body and mind and promote wellbeing. There are also various counting breath-work techniques such as the 4-7-8 breathing technique, also known as ārelaxing breath.ā It involves breathing in for 4 seconds, holding the breath for 7 seconds, and exhaling for 8 seconds. This breathing pattern aims to reduce anxiety or help people get to sleep. Experiment and explore with different breathing meditations and find one that resonates with you. Breath classes can be transformational. Most of us do not realize that we are breathing shallow in our chest due to stress and not fully engaging our diaphragm and expanding our rib-cage with deep abdominal breathing. </div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #1c1e21; direction: ltr; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 17px; margin: 0px auto 28px; white-space: pre-wrap; width: 700px;">
13. <span style="font-family: inherit; font-weight: 600;">Laugh</span>. Laughter is the best medicine. There is actually a case of someone who laughed his cancer into remission. Watch some stand up on Amazon Prime, rent a funny movie, donāt take things so seriously. Yes we need to be careful and cautious but we also need to enjoy our lives and have fun!<br />
<br />
In summary, we need to get back to the basics in order not only to maintain and preserve our health and sanity, but these same preservational activities and exercises for epidemic crisis survival are also paramount to our ability to thrive in life without any looming threats to our existence. If distancing ourselves from others means getting more in touch with ourselves, maybe itās not such a bad thing after-all! It is my hope that we step back, reflect, and inject our lives with new found zest and meaning and purpose and energy to do great things. We were created for greatness. Now is our time to stop, look, and remember what we are here for!</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #1c1e21; direction: ltr; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 17px; margin: 0px auto 28px; white-space: pre-wrap; width: 700px;">
Many blessings of complete health, wellness, and vitality.</div>

I tried eating healthy, exercising regularly, detox/cleansing, thyroid support, vitamins & supplements, diuretic teas and herbal fat burners but nothing worked for me.<br />
<br />
Then a colleague of mine posted <a href="https://www.facebook.com/thenaturopathicmama/videos/194197678179511/UzpfSTcwNjMxNjA2NzoxMDE1NzA1MTQxMjczNjA2OA/" target="_blank">this video</a> on Facebook live. I was skeptical thinking that it would not work for me because I only needed to lose 10-15 lbs and we all know that, "the last 10 lbs are the hardest to lose."<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I didn't expect it to work but was thrilled with the results:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

When I started this diet I just did it for myself, not expecting any results but my friends and family who saw my posts on social media started asking me to help them lose weight so I added it as a service which I am now offering at my office:</div>

According to a recent article published in the Sun Sentinel,
<span style="color: red;">51% of Floridians</span> are <i>unhappy</i> with their jobs!<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>In an article published on CNNās website, the <u>top 4 factors</u>
that contribute to their dissatisfaction include: </div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<ol>
<li><div style="margin: 0px;">
few opportunities for advancement, </div>
</li>
<li><div style="margin: 0px;">
<b>company culture</b>, </div>
</li>
<li><div style="margin: 0px;">
being underpaid and </div>
</li>
<li><div style="margin: 0px;">
<b>loathsome managers and coworkers</b>.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span></div>
</li>
</ol>
</div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Additional factors
why employees were unhappy include </div>
<ul>
<li><div style="margin: 0px;">
<b>feeling unimportant</b> and </div>
</li>
<li><div style="margin: 0px;">
they didnāt like their companyās <b>health plans.</b> </div>
</li>
</ul>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
These factors contribute to high employee turnover and that costs
the company valuable time and resources in an endless cycle of rehire, retrain,
and repeat.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>In addition, current labor
market conditions, namely, historic levels of job openings, combined with low
un-employment, appear to be driving an unprecedented job-hopping trend.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>Many people are so confident that they are even
quitting their jobs prior to finding new ones and they are getting hired within
12 months, the survey said.</div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Implementing a <b>Corporate Wellness Health Plan </b>can substantially
improve employee job satisfaction by creating a <b>company culture</b>
that is <span style="color: #999999;">supportive, nurturing and facilitates a sense of importance and
wellbeing among the employees</span>.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>In
addition, implementing short <span style="color: #999999;">20-30 minute</span> holistic stress-reducing services
such as breath-work, meditation, and acupuncture can <u>help employees be calm,
cool, and collected despite upcoming deadlines and other pressures both inside
and outside of work</u>.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>When the employees
receive regular mind-body-spirit health care, while the external stressful
factors remain the same, the individual is able to respond to them without
irritability, frustration, short temper, and anxiety.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>Thus the ā<b>loathsome coworkers</b>ā factor can
virtually be eliminated.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>The person who
is irritated will no longer be on edge so it will be much harder to irritate
him/her and the person doing the irritation will also be less stressed so they
are less likely to transfer their stress to someone else.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">There are so many weight loss myths out there. I shared an uber with a personal trainer not long ago and I told her that I want to lose 10 lbs. She said I needed to eat MORE and she is RIGHT! When I did the body building competition I had to eat every 3 hours. I was consuming more calories and I was leaner. This is counter-intuitive: eat more*, weigh less. How is this possible? Because the calorie counting model that nutritionists teach is outdated and wrong. It's not</span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; font-family: inherit;"> about calories, it's about boosting metabolism (the rate your body BURNS calories). Also, not all calories are created equally. Refined white sugar carbs won't get rid of stubborn fat but a diet rich in green vegetable carbs and lean protein can. If you eat lean, clean and green, without skipping meals, drink plenty of water and exercise 5 days per week for an hour, you should be in good shape. If not, you need to research your body type (and maybe even blood type) and do some fine tuning according to your genetic constitution. Taking emotional inventory is also important to make sure food consumption is not being used as an emotional crutch.</span><br />
<span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; font-family: inherit;">*According to data from the Harvard Health Newsletter, after walking two 15-minute miles and weightlifting for 30 minutes, a 125-pound person burns only 210 calories and a 185-pound person burns 333 calories. So as you can see the calorie counting method just doesn't add up mathematically to the results that they claim are true.</span><br />
<span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; font-family: inherit;"><span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;">If weight loss equaled calories consumed minus calories burned then all people eating 4,000+ calories per day should be <b>morbidly obese</b> (it's impossible to burn that much in a day with exercise*). But they are not necessarily, some have a very low body fat percentage. The movie star Dwayne āThe Rockā Johnson, in order to maintain his legendary physique, eats more than 5,000 calories a day. The calories, spread over seven meals, include roughly 2.3 pounds of cod, a fish particularly<span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;"> rich in protein.</span></span></span></div>
<div class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; font-family: inherit;">
<div style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: inherit; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px;">
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-o_-rcspHQ4E/XCVWUcBFA0I/AAAAAAAAC7g/X2Jv7K2mDNQrSwZ3SInRJI9sDpaf9giOQCLcBGAs/s1600/VISUAL%2BAID.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="716" data-original-width="703" height="640" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-o_-rcspHQ4E/XCVWUcBFA0I/AAAAAAAAC7g/X2Jv7K2mDNQrSwZ3SInRJI9sDpaf9giOQCLcBGAs/s640/VISUAL%2BAID.jpg" width="627" /></a></div>
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: inherit; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<div style="font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; margin-bottom: 6px;">
Case and Point: If I posted the visual aid above without the words and asked you which man ate 2,000 calories per day more than the other man, most people would guess that Patient X had the higher calorie consumption because he looks over-weight.</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
The truth is that it's not calories that count, it's metabolism. How do you boost metabolism? Small frequent meals and exercise. I am quite certain that WHAT they eat is also very different. The Standard American Diet is full of unhealthy <span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; font-family: inherit;">fats, processed foods, additives, preservatives, food coloring and refined carbohydrates. THAT plus a sedentary lifestyle is why Patient X is Morbidly Obese while The Rock is, well... A beast & A LEGEND! You can eat more and weigh less. It's what you eat and how you eat it that matter too, not just numbers!!!</span></div>
<div class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px;">
So stop counting your calories (unless you are in a body building competition) and start eating lean, clean, and green and GET MOVING! There is no magic pill for success, you put in the effort and time will do the rest.</div>
</div>
<br />
Lastly, don't be fooled by appearances. Some people may look skinny on the outside but they could have a lot of fat around their organs on the inside and can actually be in bad cardiovascular shape. I remember in high school a very skinny girl (genetically vata ectomorph banana small frame) had 3% more body fat than I did (pitta mesomorph pear medium frame) and I was physically bigger than her. So looks can be deceiving.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: inherit; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
The bottom line is that if you are not getting the results that you want then it may be time to modify your nutrition and fitness routine. 2019 is a great opportunity to do that. Wishing everyone a happy and healthy New Year.</div>

<span style="background-color: #f2f3f5; color: #1c1e21; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">If you don't believe eating clean works, here's my personal testimonial. When I was in graduate school I did the allergy elimination diet to try to find the source of my sinusitis. I ate only organic fruits and vegetables, nuts, seeds, gluten free grains including white rice, lamb, lentils, beans, and olive oil. I am 5'5" and I started off at 125 lbs. 6 weeks later I was down to 118 lbs. I went to my naturopathic clinic at school because I didn't like that I became so thin. My legs looked like I was riding a horse. I was eating PLENTY of calories but I could not keep the weight on. They advised me to eat more nut butters. The take home message is that your body will shed whatever it doesn't need when you give it what it does need! Our bodies need clean protein and vitamins and minerals from nutritious food. Eat good, feel good, look good. Good?</span><br />
<span style="background-color: #f2f3f5; color: #1c1e21; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #f2f3f5; color: #1c1e21; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">So when it comes to quality vs quantity, quality wins by a landslide! </span><br />

Your Health, Your Life, Your Body, Your Choice!According to the American Medical Association, 1 out of 3 Americans is Obese. Excess weight isn't only uncomfortable, it is also detrimental to health and wellbeing. Who doesn't want to have more energy, have less health concerns, and feel more confident in their clothes?<br />
<br />
People have all kinds of reasons why they don't exercise. Here are some easy suggestions to bypass those excuses and get results!<br />
<br />
<b>#1 I DON'T HAVE TIME</b><br />
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average American works 40-50 hours per week. With this kind of schedule, it is indeed very challenging to find the time (and energy) to exercise but not impossible! For those who are parents* and have to wake up early to take their kids to school, <u>getting up 10-30 minutes earlier everyday</u> may not be a viable option and after work, it's dinner, showers, homework, and exhaustion. So how do you get out of this rut? Make the time!<br />
<br />
If you have a 1 hour lunch break, use 30 minutes to walk around the block. You can also do this with 15 minute breaks. If the weather is not conducive to walking outside, there are other things you can do at work, even during work to burn calories, stimulate circulation, and promote health and quality of life. Here are some ideas and no I don't have stock in Amazon and do not profit from any of these suggestions!<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>#2 I AM TOO TIRED AFTER WORK</b><br />
Buy a stationary bicycle pedaling device that you can keep under your desk <i>at</i> work. There are some expensive ones that would be a worthwhile investment such as <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07B9PSNFY?aaxitk=2ygqzB-7qL77DoZJ9IWNhw&pd_rd_i=B07B9PSNFY&pf_rd_p=3ff6092e-8451-438b-8278-7e94064b4d42&hsa_cr_id=7050356360901&sb-ci-n=productDescription&sb-ci-v=Sunny%20Health%20%26%20Fitness%20Mini%20Cycle%20with%2090%20RPMs%20for%20Leg%20and%20arm%20Exercises%20with%20Motorized%20and%20Manual%20Option%20-%20SF-B0717&sb-ci-a=B07B9PSNFY" target="_blank">this one</a> but it doesn't have to cost much to be effective, the main thing is that you use it. I purchased <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01G8ZU2QW?aaxitk=Bk.TIU56DJr7ltj9OQaDZQ&pd_rd_i=B01G8ZU2QW&pf_rd_p=3ff6092e-8451-438b-8278-7e94064b4d42&hsa_cr_id=7359212060601&sb-ci-n=productDescription&sb-ci-v=Vive+Pedal+Exerciser+-+Portable+Desk+Cycle+-+Hand%2C+Arm+%26+Leg+Exercise+Peddling+Machine+-+Low+Impact%2C+Adjustable+Fitness+Rehab+Equipment+for+Seniors%2C+Elderly%2C+PT+-+Folding+Mini+Stationary+Bike+Peddler&sb-ci-a=B01G8ZU2QW&th=1" target="_blank">this very inexpensive one</a> for my office and it works just fine!<br />
<br />
If you have a break room at work, ask your boss if you can put a <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Marcy-Trampoline-Cardio-Trainer-Handle/dp/B005CAIY92/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1545755881&sr=8-6&keywords=small+trampolines+for+adult+exercise" target="_blank">small trampoline </a>or other exercise equipment for the staff, maybe s/he will even help to pay for the cost. Otherwise a small stepper <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Sunny-Health-Fitness-Stepper-Resistance/dp/B0016BQFSS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1545755780&sr=8-1&keywords=Sunny+Health+%26+Fitness+Mini+Stepper+with+Resistance+Bands" target="_blank">like this one</a> can easily be stored in a closet and be used during a short break.<br />
<br />
<b>#3 IT'S INCONVENIENT</b><br />
What could be more convenient than working out in the comfort of your own home at your own pace, whenever you want to? Use an exercise app on your smart phone and set reminders so you don't procrastinate or fall off the wagon or find an online (such as YouTube) exercise video channel that you like and set alarms in your phone to remind you to do them. Here are a few that I like:<br />
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/ExerciseToHeal/videos" target="_blank">Tai Chi</a><br />
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/Criticalbench/videos" target="_blank">Plyometrics</a><br />
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DEOdrBZKID0&list=PLzX1rAq0GGAtGEDdIA-UHuzN5uK9YKHRA" target="_blank">Fitness with Faith</a><br />
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/KabalahYoga/playlists" target="_blank">Yoga and Spirituality</a><br />
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/BrainwavePowerMusic" target="_blank">Meditation</a> Music<br />
<br />
<b>#4 I AM TOO LAZY</b><br />
You can make your activities of daily life into a workout without much effort. If you walk a lot for work such as a nurse, realtor or postman, use 1-2 lbs <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Empower-Adjustable-Exercise-Resistance-Training/dp/B00O7MGZ6A/ref=sr_1_7?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1545758283&sr=1-7&keywords=ankle+weights" target="_blank">ankle weights</a>. It can be hidden underneath your pants so no one knows. Your leg muscles will feel a big difference. A little bit goes a long way!<br />
<br />
<b>#5 I DON'T HAVE SPACE FOR WORKOUT EQUIPMENT</b><br />
If you live or work in a high rise building, <b>take the stairs</b>! Do this on cruises too. You will burn calories and sometimes get where you are going even faster.<br />
<br />
<b>#6 I HATE WORKING OUT!</b><br />
Join the club! Don't workout, just be more active. When shopping, doing errands, going out to eat, to an appointment, or going to work, don't look for the closest parking spot. <b>Park further away and walk to your destination</b>. This may entail better time management but walking a few extra blocks every day adds up!<br />
<br />
<b>#7 I CANNOT AFFORD A GYM MEMBERSHIP</b><br />
Then don't join one. These fast and effective exercises are FREE. In just <b>10 minutes</b> per day you can get into good shape with a few super simple exercises!<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Try a <b>Circuit</b> such as this one that can get you in great shape <i>over time</i>!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2 min jumping jacks, jump rope* or burpees (warm up) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 minute of (jump) squats </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 minute of (alternating) lunge (jump) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 minute of sit-ups (left, right, center)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 minute of push-ups </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 minute of plank *</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 minute of pull-ups*</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2 minutes of stretching<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Imagine if you did this twice per day </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
when you woke up and before you went to bed!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How would you look and feel after 1 year!?!</div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>#8 I AM INJURED AND I DON'T WANT TO MAKE IT WORSE</b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;">If you have knee (or other joint) problems (or health conditions), you can do the exercises without jumping. Consult with your doctor and a trainer to find the appropriate workout for you. For warm up you can jog in place, alternate with high knees, and butt kicks and all the exercises can be modified for low impact to meet your specific needs.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is a 3 minute demonstration</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
If you have carpet or rug then you don't need a yoga mat, otherwise <a href="https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-2-Inch-Exercise-Carrying-Purple/dp/B01LP0VBDI/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1545756593&sr=8-7&keywords=exercise+mat+thick" target="_blank">a thick foam exercise mat</a> can be stored in the trunk of your car and be ready for any 10 minute break you have. Your kids could be playing in the park on a Sunday or after school and you do your routine quickly.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<b>#9 I HATE THE GYM</b><br />
There are numerous physical activities that do not require joining a gym. If you are a social person, join a <b>sports team</b>! Your local YMCA, JCC, and other organizations such as recreational parks and recreational centers have <u>all kinds</u> of sports teams you can join: soccer, baseball, softball, basketball, volleyball, rowing, running clubs (train for a marathon-that's a great goal & accomplishment!), cycling clubs (you can find online or through local sporting goods outfitters) and dance studios--belly dancing is a great core workout and very empowering for women. There are long bike rides for great causes that are lots of fun to do with friends. I did a ride from Seattle to Portland (over 200 miles) with a bunch of friends and it was GREAT!!! You can enter a tennis or racquetball league, solo or doubles (get your family members involved such as spouse or parent or child or sibling). Having someone to be accountable to is very productive and enjoying a recreational activity with a friend or family member is beneficial for the relationship! By joining a team you can make like-minded friends and maybe even meet someone special if you are single!<br />
<br />
<b>#11 I DON'T LIKE COMPETITION</b><br />
Physical activity doesn't have to be in the form of the gym or a sport. You can make it a date night with your spouse, and take <b>dance classes</b> together. Ballroom dancing or Swing, Latin dancing or other social dances can be both a great cardiovascular workout as well as a ton of fun and a great opportunity to bond with your partner. A couples' yoga class video or tai qi or chi gong video could also be a fun way to spend quality time together without having to get a babysitter and save the commuting time. Flexibility is super important as we age to improve balance and prevent hip fractures, etc.<br />
<br />
<b>#11 I AM NOT ATHLETIC</b><br />
You gotta start somewhere! <b>Martial Arts</b> is an awesome practice that will get you in shape, confident, and sharp. It can boost your metabolism and your self-esteem.<br />
<br />
<b>#12 IT'S JUST NOT FOR ME</b><br />
Not everything is for everyone. That's okay! Join your kids in their fun <b>physical activities</b>. <b>Don't be a spectator!</b> When I take my kids to the trampoline park or to the local ninja course, I see so many parents sitting in the side-lines, watching or on their phones. Being active with your kids is a great way to bond with then, so stop watching and jump in. You might actually have fun, sweat, and enjoy yourself! It's important to be a good role model! Children learn by what we do, not what we say! So play catch with them, rent bikes at the beach, and shoot some hoops together. Families that play together, stay together!<br />

<b>#13 I AM NOT MOTIVATED & </b><b>#14 I AM AFRAID (I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO)</b><br />
No one likes to lose money. Therefore when you sign up with a personal trainer you are more likely to be committed to your exercise program. Even if it's only once per week and you do 2 other days on your own you will get better results. Pick a trainer who looks how you want to look. If your trainer is not in good shape, find someone else to coach you. Also, if you are concerned about medical conditions and injuries, signing up for a few sessions with a <b>personal trainer</b> can be particularly beneficial. The trainer can make sure you are doing things properly (with good posture, alignment, and using weights that will build your muscles without injuring you. There is no need to start on your own if you fear doing things incorrectly and suffering the consequences. Sports injuries happen, even when you do things correctly so it's also good to make sure your nutrition and supplement intake is adequate to support your lifestyle. Don't be embarrassed everyone needs to start somewhere. Just start,<br />
<br />
<b>#15 I WORK TOO MANY HOURS</b><br />
<b>Office modification</b>. Your desk can be transformed into a workout station. If you sit for many hours, maybe you can use a <a href="https://www.amazon.com/d/Exercise-Balls/Exercise-Ball-Professional-Anti-Burst-Stability/B01DVHNOWO/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1545761453&sr=1-2-spons&keywords=yoga+ball&psc=1" target="_blank">yoga ball</a> part of the time to exercise your core muscles such as abdomen and back. Make sure your table and monitor are ergonomically set up to protect your joints and eyes from excess strain and fatigue. You might be able to get a transformable standing desk or a <a href="https://www.amazon.com/JumpSport-Air-Spring-Anti-Fatigue-Circulation-Adjustable/dp/B01M750USE" target="_blank">wurf board</a> for standing jobs to increase and improve circulation. Stagnation of blood and vital energy (qi pronounced chee) are the leading contributors to disease according to Chinese Medicine. There are <i>many</i> <a href="https://www.amazon.com/TrekDesk-Treadmill-Desk-Standing-Workstation/dp/B002IYRBI0/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1545761206&sr=1-2-spons&keywords=exercise+desk&psc=1" target="_blank">creative ways to modify your office</a> that are available to day that help to prevent lack of physical activity (leading to weight gain and poor health). If you think it's too expensive, it's cheaper than missing 3 weeks from work because of surgery and it's cheaper than chemotherapy co-payments and deductibles. Your boss would probably prefer to invest in prevention so that his employees are happy, healthy, more productive, in a better mood and miss fewer days due to illness etc. <br />
<br />
<b>#16 NOTHING WORKS FOR ME</b><br />
Humans enjoy variety, spontaneity and regularity. Mix and match from the above to find something that works for you. For example, maybe wear ankle weights twice per week, take the stairs on Fridays, go for a long walk at the park or the beach on Sundays, take a Dance class one evening per week, use your exercise app twice per week to work different muscle groups (upper and lower body workouts), take a fitness class once per week (some clubs open at 5am, you could swim laps too!), get a yoga ball for the office and a gel pad for your keyboard to protect your wrists from carpal tunnel. Sign up for a few 5K races per year (you can speed walk it) and try to beat your personal best each time. There are many little things you can do if you WANT to. Where there is a will there is a way! So start planning today!<br />
<br />
<b>#17 I HAVE FOOT PAIN AND CANNOT STAND</b><br />
There is a program called <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/SitandBeFitTVSHOW/videos" target="_blank">sit and be fit</a> that you can do at home or at a local senior center. You can also swim, row, or use a stationary bicycle. In addition, you can heal the foot pain with acupuncture. See <a href="https://www.acupuncturetoday.com/abc/footpain.php" target="_blank">this article</a> for more information.<br />
<b><br /></b>
If you are not getting results, get a <a href="https://betterhumanapp.com/" target="_blank">food app such as this one</a> and log your macros. When you record your intake you can better track your progress.<br />

<b>#18 I'M TOO OLD</b><br />

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">This is an excuse for, I don't want to, I don't believe I can. One of my Zumba teachers is 74 years old and she is slim, energetic and amazing. There are many senior who compete in athletic events such as body building and racing and even senior Olympics. I have seen videos of physically fit elderly dancing, doing gymnastics and many other physical activities and they don't use age as a crutch or excuse for why not to exercise, be fit, and feel great. The woman in this video started Yoga when she was in her 70s and is now teaching it in her 90s. Age is no excuse! NOW is always the time to live your best life!</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">
<br /></div>
<br />
In summary, exercise should not feel like a dreaded chore, find something fun that you <i>enjoy</i> doing and look forward to. For me, I love to dance so I take Zumba classes several times per week. The important thing is to do it often! It is better to exercise 10-20 minutes per day than to just be a weekend warrior. So, sign up for 5K walk/runs and take those long weekend bike rides but <b>be active</b> all week long too to prevent heart disease, diabetes and more! So enjoy reducing your stress and living your best life. It's your life and your choice so choose wisely!<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The papers talk about how the flu is deadly and that vaccination is the "best" way to prevent the flu. This is utter and complete nonsense. First of all people do NOT die of the flu virus. The so-called "flu-associated" deaths are most likely from <i>iatrogenic infections</i> which the person acquires <b>during hospitalization </b>or in immune-compromised or otherwise sick individuals<b>! </b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">When I was in college and uneducated about the risks of vaccines, I was persuaded to take the flu vaccine. Much to my dismay, I became sicker than I had ever been in my entire life. I was bed-ridden for 2 days, miserable, with the flu. I would never wish that demise on anyone and I never want to experience that again. I should mention that I was otherwise very healthy and fit. When I was finally well enough to go back to the school clinic and told them how sick I got from the shot, they denied it was the shot that made me sick. They claimed that it was a coincidence that I got the flu after getting the shot and that if I had not had the shot I would have been more sick. Today I know it was all a cover-up. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Under the section of is the flu vaccine safe, they fail to mention reactions like the one that I had.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Under the benefits of getting a flu vaccine they say that the shot can keep your child from getting sick. Again they miss the opportunity to disclose that the recipient of the injection can BECOME extremely sick!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The claim that the flu vaccination may make your illness milder if you do get sick is not supported by any scientific data, In fact, all so-called "studies" that they reference in this literature do not have any sources cited! Where is it published (in a peer-reviewed journal)? Who funded the $tudy? What was the sample size? What was the nature of the study? What are the confounding variables? Show me the evidence. You can not make such outrageous claims without any evidence to back it up!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Under other ways to protect against the flu they fail to mention nutrition, vitamins, hydration, exercise, rest, and sleep. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Under medicine to treat the flu, they only mention conventional meds, no natural (herbal or vitamin/mineral) immune supporting antivirals.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">They fail to mention the toxic and disgusting ingredients in the flu vaccine which include: <span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">mercury, gelatin, formaldehyde, and MSG (mono-sodium glutamate).</span></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I disagree with their recommendation that pregnant women get the shots. Pregnant and lactating mothers transfer these toxins to their baby! Mercury and other heavy metals stay in the body forever (unless chelated) and MSG is a neurotoxin. Heavy metal can deposit in the brain (which is particularly susceptible to heavy metal toxicity). These are not health conscious recommendations! The risk of the vaccine is worse than the risk of the flu!</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">They do give a very important piece of information, "Flu viruses are <i>constantly</i> changing and so flu vaccines are updated often to protect against the flu viruses that research indicates are <b>most likely </b>to cause illness during the upcoming flu season." This is the most important and true statement in the entire handout. The viruses are changing and mutating all the time and the vaccines are being updated some of the time. Also, science does not have a crystal ball to predict which viruses are going to be most active at any point in time. I do not want anyone playing Russian roulette with my health when the shot contains heavy metals and other chemicals which are not fit for human consumption!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The CDC has the audacity to state, āBefore the vaccineā prior to their ridiculous statistics in order to make it look like the vaccine is what saved the day.

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Granted the flu is a virus, if it is left untreated the weakened immune system is susceptible to a super-imposed bacterial infection, which is what all those millions of people died from! No one EVER died from the FLU!!! See Merck page 1288, ā Although even healthy people demonstrate defects in lung clearance and ventilation for several weeks after acute illness, RECOVERY IS THE RULE in uncomplicated influenza.ā</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The CDC website says the following about potential adverse effects:</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Severe problems:</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Ā· Life-threatening allergic reactions from vaccines are very rare. If they do occur, it is within a few minutes to a few hours after the shot.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Ā· In 1976, a certain type of influenza (swine flu) vaccine was associated with <a href="https://www.pe.com/2018/11/30/assemblyman-jose-medina-diagnosed-with-gillian-barre-syndrome/?fbclid=IwAR1G8HuQnohdVT2CiK1p-33DdqbHU74UxBMGbySiWfK5kEz9xTWMTQBtRR4" target="_blank">Guillain-BarrĆ© Syndrome (GBS)</a> . Since then, flu vaccines have not been clearly linked to G.B.S. However, if there is a risk of G.B.S. from current flu vaccines, it would be no more than 1 or 2 cases per million people vaccinated. This is much lower than the risk of severe influenza, which can be prevented by vaccination.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Virtually all cases of the flu pass without consequence. And the disease isnāt usually treated anyway, so why bother with the vax? <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">There are less than 60 deaths per year in children up to 14 years old. Complications of the flu usually occur in the elderly or people with chronic heart, lung, or immune system diseases (p. 121-123). Children with asthma, diabetes or chronic health diseases are recommended to take the vaccine but otherwise healthy people do not need the shot.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Dr Sears says, ā<span style="background-color: yellow;">I feel that the potential severity of the flu for infants and children has been hyped up by the media. The actual number of fatalities on this age group every year is extremely small. Combine this with the high rate of side effects and the unusual chemical additives in the shot, and itās no wonder some parents shy away from making this a routine vaccine for their kids</span>ā (p. 134). </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;"><u>CONCLUSION</u>: <span style="color: windowtext; font-weight: normal;">See highlighted paragraph above by Dr Sears from p 134 of his book. It summarizes my sentiments very nicely!</span></span></h1>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This vax is typically given at 2, 4, 6, and 15 months, by AAP guidelines. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">According to Dr. Sears, āsevere cases of this disease are now <u>extremely</u> rare.ā There are only about ā25 cases per year in the United States in kids under five years of age.ā And, āa breastfed baby who does not attend day care is at a particularly low risk of catching this illnessā (p. 9). My guess is that those 25 cases were in children who have weak immune systems, live in unhygienic circumstances and were possibly malnourished or impoverished without access to appropriate medical care.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">He says that he hasnāt seen a single case of HIB in 10 years of practice and that since the disease is so rare, HIB isnāt the most critical vaccine (p. 12).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Dr Sears states that in the vaccine trials, āmore babies who received the vaccine caught a serious HIB infection than those who didnāt get the vaccine!ā (p. 8).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It seems to me that the risks of the side-effects of the vax such as Guillain-Barre syndrome are more common and more threatening than the bug itself. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">According to the CDC, āThe risk of Hib vaccine causing serious harm or death is extremely small.ā <a href="http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/vac-gen/side-effects.htm#hib" style="color: #6699cc;">http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/vac-gen/side-effects.htm#hib</a><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><u>CONCLUSION</u></b>: My baby is breastfed and not in day care. Therefore, she is at low risk for catching HIB, which is anyway a rare bug with rarely grave consequences. Since the vaccine is known to have caused <span style="background-color: yellow;">serious harm or death</span>, why would I want to take that āsmallā chance??? No thank you! Weāll stay healthy with breastmilk and naturopathic medicine and if need be, antibiotics!</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">According to the brochure, this condition was responsible for the death of 600 children a year (before the vaccine).

I doubt if any of them were the children of naturopathic doctors!</span></div>

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Alcohol has always had a place in my life. Since my earliest memories, my parents always drank in the evening and at social events. My mother started to really have a problem with alcohol addiction when I was about twelve. She was drunk every evening. She wasnāt a mean alcoholic, rather an over-loving alcoholic. She would want me to sit with her while she rambled on, slurring her words. Half of the time I had no idea what she was talking about and often she would forget what she was talking about mid- sentence or repeat herself endlessly. I felt a deep emptiness and sorrow. I felt powerless to help her. I started to avoid her when I knew that she would be plastered drunk. I was disgusted. When I was a younger child she was the most loving and caring mother, but as an alcoholic there was nothing there but a hollow, blubbering shell. She would wake up late morning and begin drinking straight away. In the mornings I could still have a meaningful conversation with her but by mid-afternoon she wasnāt there anymore. The house reeked of vodka and was always a mess. Many times I had to help her just to walk to the bathroom, she fell a lot and would get hurt. I have two older brothers and two younger siblings who caught the brunt of this during their early childhood. My older brothers and I helped take care of them as much as we could, but they were often left to fend for themselves. My brothers and sister and I began to disregard her and toward the end of her drinking, we were sure that she was going to die soon and we accepted it. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

I didnāt want anyone to know and we always tried to hide it. We wouldnāt bringing new people home. In 1999 mother went through a two week dryout program and has been alcohol free since. She has returned to be herself, a loving and supporting mother and grandmother. She lives knowing that alcohol is simply not an option for her.</span></div>

He never drank until he fell but alcohol definitely played a role in his life. </span></div>

That is five out of eight. As well as her grandfather. All three of my fatherās siblings are alcoholics as well as many of my cousins. Both of my grandparents on my father's side were alcoholics and I remember as a very young child my father taking my grandmother to rehab. I am one of five siblings. Two others have had struggles with alcohol but I am the only one who has fallen into deep alcoholism.</span></div>

I was born in Jerusalem to American parents. When I was two we moved to the States. We lived in Montana, Oregon, Arkansas and California. At 12 we moved back to Israel and moved several times within Israel. Although our home was full of love as a child, there was always an underlying feeling of unworthiness and unbelonging. I had an illusive belief that people that had means were happy and didnāt have worries.</span></div>

Alcohol was a natural outlet for me because it was familiar and comfortable. As I fell into alcoholism, I knew what I was doing even in the earliest stages.</span></div>

For the first couple of years in the States my husband was a trailer driver and I was left alone with two young children most of the time. One evening, a few weeks after we got there, I went into the supermarket and saw the beer aisle. I thought that it would be really nice to have a beer and relax. So I bought a six pack. I think that I had two beers that night and it felt good. The pressure was off. I drank every night after that until I finished them and then repeated it a couple of weeks later. Then I got pregnant with my third son and stopped drinking. After he was born I began doing the same thing, even while I was nursing my infant. I noticed that the amount that I was drinking was slowly going up. Instead of two beers I was having three to four beers at a time. But I still wasnāt drinking every night. After a year and a half I got pregnant again with my fourth child and stopped drinking again. I remember thinking that he was my savior from alcoholism, but almost as soon as he was born I began drinking again (while nursing).</span></div>

But with the success came many long work days and constant stress. I was constantly juggling work with taking care of the kids and home. I was also in a very emotional and verbal abusive relationship with an extremely controlling husband.</span></div>

There was no love or compassion, I was far from any family and I had no friends. I knew that I was falling into alcoholism but the relief that it gave me was stronger than the fear and in the beginning I still believed that I controlled it. Slowly I started to crave alcohol, like a burning sensation in the back of the throat or the larynx. I knew that I had a problem but denied the extent of it, or damage that I was causing to myself and others. Now I realize that I could not see the effect that I was having on my children because I dismissed my importance or the impact that I had on their lives. I dismissed my self-importance as a mother. I didnāt see that it was a big deal.</span></div>

Many times I picked my kids up from daycare after I had already had a couple of drinks. I would be very careful not to get too close to anyone so that they would not smell it. Driving drunk was routine for me and I made all my plans around my drinking. I would drink until I fell asleep every night and that was usually on the couch. In the morning I would walk around the house collecting empty and half full cans that I had misplaced the night before. I hid the cans under other trash in the garbage so no one would see how many were there. Many times, in the morning I would not remember what had happened the night before. I pretended to know what the conversation was about while trying to remember or figure out the situation.</span></div>

I would stop for a few days at a time but the pull was too strong so I would fall back into it. These falls were devastating to me, I felt guilty and like a failure.

I had reached success by many peoples standards. I had an unlimited Platinum Credit card and I could buy whatever I wanted. I had a fancy car and big house in the suburbs and a successful business. But my life was empty. What was it all worth if I found pleasure in nothing? At that time I weighed close to 300 pounds because of the excess calories, I was an alcoholic, I worked all the time and I was in a bad marriage. As a child I had connected happiness to money and I found it to be a myth. I had to make a change. I knew that there had to be more meaning than this to life. I didnāt want to die this way and I knew that I had more to give to my children. I decided to leave everything. I separated from my husband and moved back to Israel to be close to my family. My parents were shocked at my state. I could see the worry in my motherās eyes. She helped me find a therapist but I still couldnāt find the strength to quit. I didnāt want to go away from my children to rehab. I tried again to quit on my own but fell back after ten days.</span></div>

I was scared and the shame was immense. I didnāt want anyone from the outside to know.

I was supposed to get them ready and send them to school and they werenāt there. I had to wake up my sixteen year old son to ask him what had happened the night before. The lost look and look of total disgust in his eyes as he told me, changed something in me. This was my wake up call, my rock bottom.</span></div>

The thought of giving up alcohol scared me but I made the decision that I was going to surrender myself to the care of others. I would simply do whatever they told me to do.

It was not fun and mostly I remember being bored. Most of the people that were in rehab with me had been there many times prior.

One of the ladies in my room had been to rehab seven times. I stayed and completed the two week program.</span></div>

It may seem as though outside circumstances cause alcoholism, but they do not. Alcohol is a vice, a symptom of emotional distress. I was stuck in constant loops of self pity, blame, shame, self-hatred, guilt and denial. I was oblivious to these loops. Because I was unaware of these thought processes, they were impossible for me to change. </span></div>

If you are pitying yourself, then you are blaming others, and outside circumstances for your situation. Feeling sorry for yourself is the opposite of taking responsibility. If you are feeling sorry for yourself, then you are under the false pretence that you are the victim of outside circumstances and the victim of other people's behaviors. In other words, you don't feel as though you have control or power in the situation. One of the best lessons that I received from my alcoholism is that when I blame others for the situation that I am in, I have to wait for others to change in order for the situation to change. But when I realized that I am the only one that can make a change in my life, then I quit blaming others. Others can only do to me that which I allow and agree to take from them. If others treat me poorly and I stay, then I am the one that is allowing them to treat me this way. It is not them that is to blame, they are only doing what they know how to do based on their own internal dialogue. When I blame another, I am giving them the power over my life. Imagine your life as a car that doesnāt stop and you choose which seat you want to sit in. You can choose to sit in the passenger's seat. You can choose the back seat or you can choose to be in the drivers seat. No matter what seat you choose, the car will still go. Imagine that you choose the passengerās seat and let someone else drive, but you continuously blame them for taking turns that you did not want to take. As I let go of blame, I gained strength in the knowledge that I am in control my life. If I am in charge then I am the only one that is responsible for my alcoholism and I am the only one that can change the situation.</span></div>

I felt like there was something wrong with me because I couldnāt control my alcoholism. I was worried about people finding out so I stopped being social and stop putting myself into social situations all together. The shame made me hide, both emotionally and physically. Shame is one of the lowest emotions you can feel. It is the opposite of self-worth. I was ashamed of who I was and what I did, I didnāt feel worthy of anything or anybody. Even just going to the park with my children was emotionally difficult.</span></div>

I hated myself and could not believe that another could love me. I felt as though I was not worthy of love. So I searched out in a relationship that which I felt I was worthy of, and settled into a destructive marriage and stayed there for many years. In retrospective, I could not have had any true, meaningful relationship with this mindset. If you don't believe another can love the true you then you never really show them who your true self is.

It is a constant dialogue in your mind. When I met someone new, I would begin to imagine myself through their eyes. I became acutely aware of aspects of my personality and my body that I disliked the most. I would imagine that the other person is only seeing these aspects and I couldnāt just flow with conversation or act naturally. I would cut conversations and interactions with other people short. When you see yourself in a certain way, you cannot believe that another sees you differently. When you hate yourself, you give up on yourself and you do not feel like you deserve more than your lot, so you don't strive for better. </span></div>

When you think this way then you can only see that which reinforces this way of thinking. When someone compliments you, you may feel as though they are patronizing you. But if somebody points out something that you did wrong, you will take it, own it, dwell on it and grow it. You will beat yourself up over it and play the recording of how stupid you are over and over again. Whereas, a person that believes in themselves and loves themselves, would not take it to heart. Rather, they would realize their mistake, learn the lesson that the situation is offering and grow from it. </span></div>

There is only the person who chooses not to take the lessons by way of dwelling or blaming (including self-blame). When you don't learn from a situation then you are likely to repeat it. Self-hate feeds and reinforces itself with every loop. The lower you feel, the harder it is to pull yourself up. This loop makes it very difficult to pull oneself out of alcoholism. You feel as though it doesn't matter anyway. </span></div>

It twists your truths and morals around in such a way that it changes the way that you think about alcohol, justifying your drinking, in order to satisfy the addiction. As an alcoholic I would wake up in the morning and be disgusted with myself for drinking. Many times I would swear to myself that I would never touch another drop of alcohol. I would look at myself in the mirror and tell myself that I'm going to stay connected to this feeling and I never want to drink again. But as the day progressed, my hatred and disgust would begin to fade and my mind would talk itself into drinking. I would tell myself that everybody has a drink in the evening and that I'm not going to hurt anybody by drinking. An alcoholic's mind tricks itself as the hour to drink approaches. I often compare what took place in my mind it to Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. This is one of the hardest things to overcome. You can't trust your own self.</span></div>

The longer the alcoholism is allowed to flourish, the deeper the roots and the harder it is to break. The earlier it is caught, the easier to overcome. There will not be a point in the future that it will be easier than it is at this moment. What started out as casual drinking slowly matured into the demon of alcoholism, gradually taking over my life. As it spread through my mind it slowly engulfed every component of my life, shadowing it and choking out the love, happiness and meaning of each aspect. Alcoholism filled those spaces with guilt, absence of caring, impatience and bitterness. It's numbing. I lost love for life, lost love for self, lost love for others and lost purpose. I quit enjoying my children and my home. I lost hobbies and friends. Nothing had meaning for me but the alcohol. And the alcohol became my best and only friend. It feels like a warm blanket that drowns out the pain. This is an illusion though, because the alcoholism brings with it far more pain than I had prior and most of the pain that I was trying to kill was the pain brought on by itself. </span></div>

Each of us are worthy of love and understanding. We lose this belief because of experiences we have along the way and things that are told to us in our life.</span></div>

You cannot see the extent of your problem (or don't want to see) and you believe that you can quit anytime if you really wanted to. </span></div>

This can be extremely difficult to do because once you admit that you have a problem then you must take responsibility for it. The alternative is to give in to the alcohol knowingly. </span></div>

This rock bottom is different for each person. It is such a low point that you cannot go lower. You feel as though you are choosing between life and death. You cannot lie to yourself any longer. You have to face the truth and admit to yourself that you have a problem. You realize that this is what your life has become and you may end it this way.</span></div>

When you reach this breaking point you are faced with a life or death choice. Either you admit and take responsibility and reach out for help, or you admit and you give in to the addiction. In both cases you cannot deny it to yourself any longer. Those who choose the latter parish. This is because you quit resisting and give into the alcohol knowingly. You accept it as your fate.</span></div>

My children were fine. My daughter, who was 14 at the time left to sleep at her grandparents house. My six year old had called his father to come and get him because he was hungry and there was noone there to feed him and I was āasleep.ā</span></div>

Asking for help can be one of the most difficult things to do. What I found is that once I asked for help there was a huge weight lifted from me. I was not alone any more and I could lean on another for strength. Another thing that I found is that people who were close to me knew I had a problem anyway, whether I admitted it to them or not. You must be able to ask for help.</span></div>

Your body physically craves it and needs alcohol just to feel normal. Without alcohol your body shakes uncontrollably and you feel sick. You cannot physically function without alcohol. You cannot move. The physical craving feeds your mental craving. I tried many times to break my addiction by myself, but I was unable to. You cannot think rational thoughts while your body is craving alcohol nor can you think rational thoughts while you are influenced by alcohol and these are your constant states of being.</span></div>

Knowing as an absolute truth is that you are the only one that can pull yourself out of alcoholism is key. No one else has that power. The work is yours. But with saying this, I will also say that you cannot do it alone and you do not need to do it alone. Reach out and find help. I still religiously continue group meetings and personal therapy. </span></div>

When we are stuck in the destructive loops of thought, another's perspective can show us a different way of thinking and help us break the loop. I have a very talented and dedicated therapist, Adi, who slowly helped me work through my personal demons. She showed me rays of light that I did not see and and planted seeds in my mind of other ways of living. These seeds flourished.</span></div>

The further down you are, the weaker you are, the less power you have and the more likely you are to break. You can only inspire yourself out of alcoholism. The further you lift yourself up in your thoughts the more power you gain and the more worthy you feel of change. </span></div>

Whatever it is that you focus on in your life is what expands. This is because, the only moment in time that your life is happening is in the current moment. The past is gone and the future is not here. Everything that we dwell on in the past is inhibiting and everything that we think of in the future is only a projection of our current thoughts and expectations. It is not actual. It is only an illusion. If we can keep our current thoughts focused on positive things, our entire life experience will change to a positive one. As we change our current thoughts, so will our projection and expectations of the future change. Our overall life experience will be tilted into the light rather than the darkness. Therefore, if you are focusing on not wanting to drink anymore, it is still the "drink" that is in focus, it is the subject of the conversation. What your thoughts are on is what is receiving airtime in your life and gaining power. You are giving your addiction strength with every thought upon it. You must find things to focus on that are outside of the alcohol. Being in the clutches of alcohol can make it difficult even to see the smallest ray of hope to grab onto or find enjoyment in anything. Alcoholics who had a hobby or interest prior to alcoholism can visualize themselves enjoying them again. It may help to focus on a role model, someone that you can aspire to be like. Find a vision of yourself that you enjoy, without the alcohol, how you would like to be. Hold that vision in your focus as much as you can. When you feel yourself being pulled into the loops of your mind, pull yourself out and bring your new vision into focus. This mental process takes time and practice but if you can persevere, you </span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 16px; font-style: italic; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">can</span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> do it. </span></div>

I am not saying that it is not difficult to quit, but it is possible, and there is hope.</span></div>

Try This!<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;">Of course exercise, eating healthy, sleeping adequately, meditating, and taking a bath can help to <strong>reduce stress</strong>. Every body knows that and yet most people still find themselves leading stressful lives. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;">Sometimes we feel like we don't have time to do everything that we want to do and items on our list (such as meditating or praying) get postponed and it's hard for us to catch up with our busy schedules! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;">Well I have good news, even for the busiest person! There is something that you can do to reduce stress which doesn't take any time at all. <em>If you have time to breathe, you have time for <strong>aromatherapy!</strong></em></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Clinical research</strong> has shown that aromatherapy has measurable <span style="color: black; line-height: 17.99px;">psychological and physiological effects such as reducing pain, fatigue, depression, stress and anxiety, </span><span style="color: black; line-height: 17.99px;">drastically reducing </span><span style="color: black; line-height: 17.99px;">stress</span><span style="color: black; line-height: 17.99px;"> related biomarkers (i.e. blood pressure, heart rate and cortisol) and has considerably enhanced well-being.

<span style="color: black; font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large; line-height: 17.99px;">Aromatherapy has been used with cancer patients to boost lymphocyte production (immune system cells)! And even animals who are nervous due to travel (or other stressors such as thunder) have been calmed by lavender aroma therapy! The fact that it works on animals and children means that this powerful aromatic plant therapy is not merely a placebo effect since those results were not biased by expectation, belief, or desire and are therefore indisputable.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;">These and many more favorable outcomes are published in PUBMED which is known as the GOLD STANDARD in Medicine today because of their placebo controlled, double-blind studies which are peer-reviewed. The mechanism of action is not clearly understood, however, the olfactory sense (smell) is the sense linked to having the <em>most immediate</em> response in the brain of all the other senses. Perhaps it is by the nature of the proximity of the two organs that the effects are so immediate and substantial.</span></div>

<br />
In a group conference room, seated in chairs around a table, fully clothed, participants receive community auricular (ear) therapy.<br />
<br />
Each participant fills out an intake form listing their medical conditions and/or treatment objective such as quitting smoking, detoxification, weight loss, stress reduction, pain management or any other issue and without talking, the practitioner can give individualized treatments to each person! So everyone's health information remains confidential. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LUWKMwQWKRA/VUq-FwDMCxI/AAAAAAAAA0c/zn4VTD4Bfoc/s1600/auricular-therapy-300.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LUWKMwQWKRA/VUq-FwDMCxI/AAAAAAAAA0c/zn4VTD4Bfoc/s1600/auricular-therapy-300.jpg" width="265" /></a>In addition, since the ear contains a reflexology map of the body, a practitioner can see which areas need to have a treatment based on skin discoloration, dry skin, the presence of blood vessels or anything else which should not be present.<br />
<br />
Since the ear is an acupuncture system onto itself and does not follow the meridian channels of energy flow in the body, many times only one ear is treated, generally on the dominant side of the person's body. So a right handed person would likely have their right ear treated.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LUWKMwQWKRA/VUq-FwDMCxI/AAAAAAAAA0c/zn4VTD4Bfoc/s1600/auricular-therapy-300.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a>The acupuncture needles are very fine, like the breadth of a hair so there is minimal discomfort on insertion or removal. Once the needle is in place, the neurotransmitters for wellbeing start to be released by the brain and people start to feel very relaxed and sometimes even fall asleep.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
During the session there is no talking, no cell phones, no gadgets and no reading. It is recommended to close one's eyes and relax to get the best benefits. The lights would be turned off, the room may be quiet, or relaxation music, affirmations, nature sounds or a meditation may be played.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-BDHBxOuvNqQ/VUrDEZZehPI/AAAAAAAAA1E/GwJZA9MSDjw/s1600/estimear.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-BDHBxOuvNqQ/VUrDEZZehPI/AAAAAAAAA1E/GwJZA9MSDjw/s1600/estimear.jpg" width="172" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
For those who are needle phobic, the points can be stimulated with a device which delivers a pulsation sensation to the areas. Each point only needs to be treated for 5 seconds to have the equivalent effect of a 30 minute acupuncture session!<br />

The plasters may be gently massaged 3 times per day clockwise for 10 seconds in order to reinforce the treatment. They usually last 3-5 days with normal showering and can sometimes last up to 2 weeks on dry skin!ļ»æ</div>

By lifestyle we include sufficient good quality sleep, clean air, nature, stress reduction techniques such as <a href="https://amzn.to/2OqCyvG">meditation</a> and relaxation activities, not smoking and not consuming alcohol in excess. By physical activity we mean not living a sedentary (coach potato) life. Exercise will vary according to people's age, needs, and health/fitness goals, but generally 20-60 minutes 3-5 days per week.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Nutrition is a very broad topic. In general, Americans are consuming way too many processed foods and not enough fresh fruits and vegetables. This is the leading cause of obesity and diabetes which affects 1 in 3 people in the USA. Even vegetarians who eat organic produce may have nutrient deficiencies due to the mineral depletion of our soil. Natural supplements can help compensate for that and assist people to achieve optimal health and wellbeing. Below is a list of common health concerns with corresponding natural supplement recommendations. Each recommendation is a hyperlink which will take you to a specific product on Amazon.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Please note that with naturopathic medicine, there is no magic bullet or quick fix, we need to find and treat the cause of the condition. Therefore, these homeopathic and herbal supplement suggestions are simply general <i>ideas</i> of safe products to try but they are <span style="color: red;">not intended as an alternative to seeking competent medical care</span>. <span style="background-color: yellow;"> If you have a condition on this list and wish to take one of the remedies suggested, please have the product supervised and approved by your primary care provider prior to taking it.</span> </span><br />

AP: I conduct sound healing ceremonies around the U.S., and coach thousands of people about mind/body/spirit health. I have a number of cancer cures and other healing 'miracles' to my credit. At 55, I am wildly healthy, have not been to a doctor's office in a decade, take no prescription or off-the-shelf medications of any kind, don't drink coffee, alcohol or sodas, and don't eat meat or poultry. My fuel intake is VERY GREEN, mostly big kale salads, fruit & nuts & whole grains, 70% raw/live, 30% cooked, with the occasional eggs or fish. I feel AWESOME. </div>

<strong>Dr G: What inspired you to create the monthly 3 day green juice detox program?</strong></div>
<div style="margin: 10px 0px 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
AP: Once I'd experienced the power of greener eating, juicing & fasting, I wanted to share it. I had a warehouse in Brooklyn called GrandSpace, an artists' residence & community center. For 2 years we led monthly green juice fasts, and up to 75 people participated each month. We presented educational seminars before each fast, and held a celebration at the end of each fast with a raw food party & a healing circle. That was in 2003/04. Then I moved to Florida and led juice fasts in Lake Worth through the Soma Center, in 2007/08. I've been touring the country for the past 5 years as a spiritual healer. Now I want to bring healing & the power of GREEN to the people!</div>

<strong>Dr G: What do you hope to accomplish with this project?</strong></div>
<div style="margin: 10px 0px 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
AP: Let's combat obesity, cancer & other global illnesses through juice fasting & greener eating. Letās maximize our media & social networking systems, to get tens of millions of people around the world to do a 3-day juice fast or health food cleanse at the beginning of each month. We want everyone juice fasting ā our president & first family, the TV news anchors & talk show hosts, our spiritual leaders, recording artists, movie stars & sports icons. Letās put it on reality TV ā thatās real life drama & real life healing. Let's take health & healing to the people. We have the power to heal ourselves & society; let's do it!</div>
<div style="margin: 10px 0px 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<strong>Dr G: What are the benefits of green juice fasting?</strong></div>
<div style="margin: 10px 0px 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
AP: Clear toxins & accumulated waste from the colon & digestive tract. Alkalize & hydrate the body. Abstaining from food allows the body to direct more energy to healing specific illnesses & injuries. Abstaining from sugar starves & kills off the bacteria, mold, yeast & fungus in the body. A dietary intake of large amounts of green juice gives the body a super boost of minerals & nutrients. Juice fasting causes the body to drain mucus from the organs & muscle tissue, relieving the body of soreness & pain. Juice cleansing makes the physical body lighter & more flexible, the emotional body more positive, balanced & happy, and the mind more alert, efficient & creative. Fasting is also a powerful spiritual experience, and the cleansing of the body is a vital part of the spiritual path.</div>
<div style="margin: 10px 0px 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<strong>Dr G: Are there any contraindications or dangers?</strong></div>
<div style="margin: 10px 0px 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
AP: The fasting process pulls toxins & accumulated waste out of every part of the body. It is vitally important to get this toxic waste ALL the way OUT of the body, so we must drink a LOT of water & juice. Many people experience headaches & constipation while fasting; the solution is MORE green juice, more water & rest. We recommend a magnesium solution for people who are new to fasting, as it is very effective in clearing the system & avoiding extreme discomfort. During a fast, we can get 'trippy', light headed, dizzy -- so be careful driving a car, operating machinery, etc.</div>
<div style="margin: 10px 0px 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<strong>Dr G: What is your vision for participation in this project?</strong></div>
<div style="margin: 10px 0px 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
AP: My job is to speak the vision, build a core team, spread the word & watch it fly. We're generating this project in South Florida, but given the power of Facebook & other social networks, the Monthly 3-Day Cleanse will quickly go global.</div>
<div style="margin: 10px 0px 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<strong>Dr G: Give is a sample 3 day menu for people who don't know where to start.</strong></div>
<div style="margin: 10px 0px 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
AP: We want everyone to participate, so we include different levels/types of cleansing, detoxing & improving our fuel intake.<br />
* 3 days of only green juice <br />
* 3 days of green juice, green powders & green supplements<br />
* 3 days of green & fruit juices<br />
* 3 days of 'master cleanse' (lemon water, cayenne, honey) <br />
* 3 days of only green & fruit smoothies <br />
* 3 days of eating only raw/live vegan food<br />
* 3 days eating only vegan food<br />
* 3 days cutting out all coffee, alcohol & energy drinks, and replacing with green drinks<br />
Or design your own 3-day cleanse. And, of course, people may extend their cleanse longer than 3 days.</div>
<div style="margin: 10px 0px 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<strong>Dr G: Will people feel hungry during a juice fast? Do you get enough calories to exercise and for vigorous mental activities?</strong> </div>
<div style="margin: 10px 0px 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
AP: You can absolutely get all the nutrients, minerals, live enzymes, protein & hydration you need to exercise, do your work & live your life. This is why we promote GREEN juice fasting above fruit juice fasting, the 'master cleanse' (water, lemon, cayenne, honey/maple/agave), or a pure water fast, ESPECIALLY FOR THE NEWCOMERS. Note however that a cleanse is a process of purification & purging, so sometimes we will feel like resting & sometimes we will feel light & active. Listen to your body.</div>
<div style="margin: 10px 0px 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<strong>Dr G: Anything else you wish to add that we haven't covered?</strong></div>
<div style="margin: 10px 0px 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
AP: Greener eating, juicing & cleansing are only a PART of being brilliantly healthy. The 'Powerful Practices' page on <a class="_553k" href="http://www.alanpratt.net/" rel="nofollow" style="color: #3b5998; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">www.alanpratt.net</a> gives inspiration & resources for total mind/body/spirit health and an exciting life!</div>
<div style="margin: 10px 0px 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
