Health

Coming to you as a woman who has dealt with low energy issues off and on for years, primarily due to chronic pain (migraine) and insufficient sleep, I'm also one who researches and uses many techniques to improve my own wellness and energy levels. My discoveries have led me to a much more consistent state of health and the perfect ways to get a little extra zing in my day.

I am so thrilled that Dr. Terri Hawkins-Fox is sharing today on Bio-Communication Nutritional Testing. She is the founder and owner of Natural Rejuvenation in Indianapolis, Indiana, an expert in mind/body health, a certified massage theripist, and an author.

I did an experiment to determine how I could relax quickly and without much fuss. Fussing is not the way to get in the zen zone. However, the following five things will, at least, get you going in the right direction.

Well, the topic for today is one that might make a few of you cringe or at least think about whether I have read your mail...so to speak. It's just too big of an issue to not address here before God and everyone. So, let's move on.

In honor of Earth month, I wanted to share a couple of ways in which we can be mindful of our planet...notice the Green titles, just for fun. I know it gets overwhelming thinking about changing your lifestyle to suit the "Earth-friendly" buzz that's flying around these days.

Every year we see more and more people become a part of the overweight/obese crowd. The reasons are somewhat obvious when you consider what it is that most humans eat on a regular basis.

Prolonged fear, grief, helplessness, anxiety, anger, resentment, and other negative emotions can reduce the effectiveness of your immune system, nervous system, and endocrine system, thus increasing risk of cancer, as well as autoimmune, gut, and heart conditions.

What if your state of health had more to do with what's in your subconscious than with your body? Interestingly enough, it could be the case. I recently heard a story about a woman who was morbidly obese and found, no matter what she did, the weight would not come off and stay off.

I love how many health magazines depict the perfectly happy models jumping into the air after their five-mile runs and drinking their fruit smoothies. No judgement...it's just the way the media is.

Shall we talk a little about food today? Just a few things a want to share. First, I have found a way to get all the food our family needs and save enough money to get better quality produce and meats. Those expensive organics are within reach.

Recently, a client of mine sprained her ankle and was told that she had pretty serious damage from the sprain and from earlier injuries to the same area. Her doctor put her on crutches for a month and told her the only way she could go to work was if her boss would let her do everything seated with her foot up.

Many women have been alarmed by the recent recommendations for breast cancer screening. It's not surprising that those who have already been getting annual mammograms or are approaching the age of forty are confused about what they should do. I know because I'm one of them.

First, I just got involved with a health and wellness website called Wellsphere.com. With thousands of posts and articles from health bloggers like me, you can find just about anything you're looking for on many topics.

We have a real treat for you today. Meta-Physician, Deborah Stuart, forwarded the following chart to me to help with understanding and developing a healthful emotional state of being. First, please read a little about her and the contributions she's made to this science.

Sorry, Ladies; this is going to be short...no, I mean really short today. My head is currently experiencing one of the worst migraines that I've had for awhile. I've just never missed a Wellness Wednesday before, not willing to do it now.
