Patient Beware
When patients have ailments they present these issues to a diagnostician who then advises them to have some sort of follow up in order to ascertain the degree of the problem. The patient assumes he/she is receiving credible advice and that they are directed in the proper direction to obtain information that will help solve their problem. However assumptions as we all know may sometimes lead to complications. Medicine has become a specialized field and not all physicians are knowledgeable or specially trained in all areas, so concerns arise when physicians order examinations that may not be appropriate for the symptoms being presented. Insurance also has a part in denying or approving payment for...
Paying with their Lives: The High Cost of No Health Care
Medical advances are making it possible for people to live longer and healthier lives. New diagnostic techniques are catching cancer, heart disease, and other potentially fatal diseases earlier, sometimes with the result that lives are saved which would be lost otherwise; in other instances a disease process can be slowed and symptoms treated to provide a longer life, with greater quality, than would otherwise be possible. That's the good news. The bad news is that at least 40 million Americans have either limited or no access to all these advanced technologies. Forty million Americans have no health insurance at all, and many of these people choose to delay or entirely avoid visits to doctors...
Disorders of the Skeletal System
The skeletal system is the support framework for the muscles in our body. In addition, it also helps to protect the delicate soft tissues of the body. The system comprises of bones and cartilages that control not just the internal pressure of the body, but also work as anchors to provide stability to the body. Unfortunately this system can fall prey to diseases and disorders. Most of the disorders manifest themselves due to age, bad eating habits, accidents, injuries or deficiency of minerals and vitamins. Any disorder to the skeletal system can be extremely painful and debilitating as a result of which doing simple things like walking or sitting can become impossible. Here are some disorders of the...
I wonder if you have the same reaction to the above title that I had when I first heard it many years ago, which was, "That statement is impossible, we must keep striving for perfection." If the above "Anything worth doing..." phrase doesn't work for you, then what do you think would work better? Not long ago at a talk I was giving, a lady rephrased the statement this way, "Anything worth doing, is worth doing anyway." When was the last time you did something perfectly? I propose that you have never done anything perfectly in your life and you never will. Think for a moment... could what you think you have done perfectly been improved on in some way or manner, and made a little more perfect, or a...
Innie, Minnie, Miny, Moe -- How Do You Know Which Self-Help Expert Is Right For You?
Most of my clients are shocked when they find out that I have only read three or four self-help/spiritual books (that's why I love Nina's site). We are living in an age, thank the heavens, of awareness. It is the era of The Secret and The Law of Attraction. This awareness movement is really in the infant stages and that means we are all getting our balance and determining how to walk our talk. Whether you have been on your journey awhile or just starting out, I believe it is important to seek mentoring and guidance. No one can do it all on their own. The first step to selecting the correct individual for you is to be clear about what and who you want. I suggest you sit down in a quiet...
Do We Live In Two Separate Realities?
Yes. We do - we believe that our own interpretation of the world is valid - that it is the only one, and that it is completely real. And we can always find people that will agree with us. Yet all of us share in the Greater Reality of an abiding presence of Love and Unconditional Compassion. And many have discovered a way to live in this awareness. How does one examine a lived and believed reality? Fear and self-defense, long ago imprinted, have formed logical strategies, plans and conclusions, making it difficult to explore the origin of our long established, set-in-place world view. It is so very hard to grasp the need to control our life, established very early on, that keeps shaping and...

Tools to Tame a Temper: Self-Awareness and Self-Control
Tools to Tame a Temper: Self-Awareness and Self-Control Because anger can be powerful, managing it is sometimes challenging. It takes plenty of self-awareness and self-control to manage angry feelings. And these skills take time to develop. Self-awareness is the ability to notice what you're feeling and thinking, and why. Little kids aren't very aware of what they feel, they just act it out in their behavior. That's why you see them having tantrums when they're mad. But teens have the mental ability to be self-aware. When you get angry, take a moment to notice what you're feeling and thinking. Self-control is all about thinking before you act. It puts some precious seconds or minutes between feeling...

A Deep Tissue Massage Definitely Works
I had been lucky enough in my younger years dating a massage therapist, and used to obtain a free of charge deep tissue massage once a week. I had often been fairly healthy and felt quite very good much of the time, but I had no thought about how much healthier I could really feel by obtaining that sort of the massage. When my sweetheart first contacted me about the notion of the massage, I had been a bit suspicious, mainly because I had never definitely been into that kind of thing, and I genuinely did not sense any pains or aches. She said that I must just try it and see how I felt, so I did, and I did experience fairly beneficial afterwards. She then recommended a deep tissue massage to truly...

Doubt Is Poisoning Yourself
Would you drink poison--just a little bit--every time you had a negative thought? No. But we do, don't we? Every doubt creates just a tiny bit of poison in our consciousness. Doubting that we'll do well on an interview or phone call. Doubting that our family will be able to afford that next big purchase. Doubting that the company we work for will want us around after the downsizing. Think of each doubt as a tiny drop of black ink dropped into a pure & clear glass of water. That's exactly how it works. And it doesn't matter if we're dropping ink into a glass or a 5 gallon bucket. You know what happens when the very first drop goes in. The entire container gets tainted. Doubt is...

One day, Genet's friend Shirley was talking about a person named Anthony. Genet had to stop her and ask, "Who is Anthony?". Shirley replied "Oh, he is my son". Jean then asked, "Where is he at? I've known you for many years and I didn't even know you had a son.". In a quiet voice Shirley had said, "Anthony is severely retarded and lives in mental hospital.". Genet then asked for Shirley to describe why she thought Anthony was mentally retarded. She went on for quite some time telling of the complications at Anthony's birth. Anthony was now 35...

Zero Point Energy Experience
The term Zero Point Field was first pointed at the beginning of last century. There were number of quantum physicists looking at the Zero Point Field, and one of them was Albert Einstein. The hypothesis was, if you took the high power of microscope and you look down deep enough - through atoms, electrons and protons - you ultimately get to this Zero Point Field. Originally we thought it was a void empty space. But science changes! We used to think the world was flat, and then we realized actually it is round. We used to think this Zero Point Field was a void empty space, and now we realize actually it is a reservoir - a reservoir for all the energy! I went to the presentation for the Zero Point...

Using Hypnosis to Overcome the Fear of Death

Your Subconscious Mind - An Introduction
p>So many people today are talking about neuroscience and the mind-body connection. It is good that science is focusing on this connection at long last, and, it is time for all of us to get back to basics in better understanding our own inner workings and learning about how our own subconscious works. From the vantage point of energy psychology, I would like to introduce you to your subconscious mind. Imagine that you have a young friend who lives inside your mind. It stands behind every aspect of your life and supports your body, mind, and spirit in all ways. Remember that your analytical (left brain) mind only is responsible for about 1-2% of all life functions, so that means that the rest of your...
Everyday Uses For Healing Crystals
Crystals and gemstones are to be used in combination with modern medicine; never use these in place of medical treatment. If you are sick or injured then you should see a doctor immediately. These products are used to help improve your energy and this has the potential to help in the healing process. Science tends to discount anything that it cannot explain. Many people have been healed on faith alone. If this is possible then positive energy may help in healing as well. Some may even say that the same faith that healed a person was a form of this energy transferred from one person to another. These may not work for each and every person. There may also be limitations as well as possible...
The Emotional Centers - The Throat and Communication
Have you ever had this experience? You need to tell someone something very important. It could be asking for a raise or promotion. In relationship it could be telling someone for the first time you love them... or telling them you want to break up. Whatever it is, you've thought about it. You've even written a script for yourself and practiced it. Now's the time and... and... your throat tightens up and the words squeak out. You have just experienced the throat emotional center in action, or inaction depending upon how you want to look at it. When you have fear about speaking your truth the emotion lands in your throat. You feel like you can barely get the words out because a vise of tension is...
Are You Seeing or Just Looking?
A few days ago I was with my brother and an incident occurred. He said to me, "You must start seeing and stop looking," while pointing to the center of his forehead. My immediate response was, "whatever." However, I could not get that thought out of my head. So I started going over my life to check whether I am going through life looking or seeing. I found out that I needed to spend more time seeing. I figure, not many people pay attention to this tiny detail that makes all the difference in the world. So I decided to write this article with the intention of expanding your awareness to this issue. You don't have to agree with me. This is just food for thought that may help you to enrich your life...

Theta healing is a modality founded by Vianna Stibal where in it allows practitioners to change a person's DNA thereby transforming the very core of his or her beliefs. Our belief is the main factor why we experience things in our life. We draw both people and experiences to us because of our belief systems. Most of the beliefs we hold are entirely in our subconscious. You may not know it that you relate financial...
Accepting Challenges As Powerful Growth Tools
How do you view challenges in your life? Or rather how do you view obstacles in your life? Well, challenges in life are quite good for us because it helps us appreciate value when we've gone through an issue or issues. Note that I use the word issue and not the word problem, mainly because problem indicates to the subconscious mind that this is something that is difficult or cannot be dealt with. On the other hand the word issue automatically focuses your mind to finding your preferred method or options for resolving the issue. Okay, now we've cleared that, let's move on. In fact, the way you progress to resolve issues in your life would actually correspond to how you live your life, because your...
Symptoms of Gallbladder Disease
It is important to know the symptoms of gallbladder disease because you can easily be confusing your symptoms with acid reflux or heartburn. Therefore by treating it as that and not as gallbladder disease you will not be getting any relief. What is the difference between heartburn and gallbladder disease? The symptoms in both cases are vary similar but there is a way to tell if it is just simply stomach acid or a more serious problem with your gallbladder. You can tell it is more then just heartburn if you are experiencing the symptoms daily or frequently. Heartburn should only occur now and then when you have had a heavy meal. But gallbladder symptoms will be present almost after every meal and...
Natural Foods to Prevent Body Odor
Body odor is not very pleasant to deal with, especially not for those who seem to have no control of it. So we do our best to mask the odor with deodorants and antiperspirants. But this is not the correct solution to the problem, because deodorants are loaded with heavy metals like aluminum; and antiperspirants will clog the pores of the skin to keep us from sweating all-together. This causes the toxins to build up within the body and if not eliminated, can cause many diseases. We have to understand that the odor is not caused by the sweating, but rather because we are toxic. When we sweat, toxins are emitted from the body, and this is why the body odor occurs. So the answer is not to eliminate...
Mole Inflammation
Moles are normally harmless and appear in many different forms. There are blue nevi (Nevi is the scientific term for moles.) that have a lot of pigment, some that are brown to black and some that are flesh tone. Sometimes people are born with moles, which are congenital. Most of the time, they come from sun exposure and the person's genetic make-up. Moles can be flat, raised, round, small or large. They come individually or in clusters. Moles can darken as you age or if you're pregnant, or they may even go away. One thing that isn't normal with moles is inflammation. Mole inflammation may be a sign that there are problems with the mole tissue. If you notice any changes in your mole such as...
What Happens When Anthrax Enters the Body?
Upon entering the body, anthrax spores germinate at the site of entry and then spread via circulation to the lymphatics, where they multiply. In the blood stream, these bacteria trigger the release three proteins: lethal factor, edema factor and protective antigen. The protective antigen combines with these other two factors to form lethal toxin and edema toxin respectively. The toxin molecules generally enter some of cells near the lymph nodes where they destroy an essential protein which leads to ultimate death of those cells. In a skin infection, it will infect nearby lymph nodes leading to swelling and lesions under the skin. Eventually it enters the blood system and spreads throughout the body...

This means that you have to be extra vigilant and pay close attention to the warning signs that your dog will exhibit to let you know that something is wrong.

But you should get your dog to a veterinarian ASAP! Only a vet can determine exactly what is wrong and then advise you on the proper course of action! Some canine prostate cancer symptoms are: 1.

Water - The Master Cleanse Secret Ingredient
When it comes to the 10 day Lemonade Master Cleanse, water intake becomes a big part of your daily routine if it hasn't already been. I would argue that water is the most important ingredient of the recipe. The reason I use the term, "Secret Ingredient" in the title is because water is so often overlooked and under appreciated. I have a confession to make... I don't know about you but I find it hard to keep up my daily intake of water. There seems to be a multitude of deterrents trying to purposefully keep me from drinking water. For me the number one enemy (better known as an excuse) of me getting my 8 glasses per day is the cost. Water can be expensive! Just the other day I purchased a 24 bottle...
One Way to Treat Extreme Nausea When You Are Having Candida
Do you experience nausea as part of the candida? Nausea is also another issue a candida sufferer has. In fact I have several friends who have experienced this. One of my friends thinks she is too acidic and feels reflux, nausea. Another woman is also having a problem with extreme nausea. She is nauseated all day, all the time. It is worst in the morning; She almost throw up her medication (swallowing pills is the worst; tablets are worse than caplets). The only thing she knows of is low stomach acid, she took an acidity test and she was very alkaline. Is there anything that causes this nausea? How can we prevent that? Maybe eat less protein, less meat because it is acidic as opposed to alkaline? I...
Causes and Symptoms of Blood Transfusion Reaction
What is this Condition? Transfusion reaction accompanies or follows intravenous administration of blood components. Its severity varies from mild (fever and chills) to severe (acute kidney failure or complete vascular collapse and death), depending on the amount of blood transfused, the type of reaction, and the person's general health. What Causes it? Hemolytic reactions (red blood cell rupture) follow transfusion of mismatched blood. Transfusion with incompatible blood triggers the most serious reaction, marked by intravascular clumping of red blood cells. The recipient's antibodies (immunoglobulin G or M) adhere to the donated red blood cells, leading to widespread clumping and destruction of the...
How to Overcome Indigestion
