Are You Ready To Change Your View and Ways?

Hello Natural Health Family! I hope you had an amazing weekend and spent quality time with friends and family. In this post I wanted to discuss the negativity happening in the world and my view on what we need to do to change the way we respond to activities in our lives. 

    Throughout the years we have seen or experienced what seem to be unfortunate events in this country and in the world. Recently, there have been many protests that have unfortunately turned into chaos and rioting. Many people are losing their houses and businesses due to irrational people and people who maybe want revenge for something that happened. (There also may be other powers at play but that is for another topic of discussion.) These are difficult times for many people and this can cause many people to react negatively in many different situations. And just when it seems like we are getting back to more of a peaceful state, another event appears in our world which causes more chaos and suffering. These unfortunate happenings will continue to happen if we go about reacting by addressing the problem in the same ways. 

In order to change, we need to change the way we view the world. Many people believe that to be a great leader is to have a large following and command a great many people to carry out an objective. That these leaders have supernatural abilities that we cannot possess ourselves. This makes us think that we are inadequate and fall victim to the life around us. However, I would like you to think in a different way. When we think of what is natural we might think that when someone offends us or hurts us then they should be punished and suffer for what they did. We tend to think that way because we have been using that part of the brain for many years to survive, so it is natural for us to react in such a way. Therefore, to be greater than our former selves and understand that an eye for an eye will leave the whole world blind, we must change our ways. To become supernatural is not to react with aggression and hate but to respond with patience and love. When we practice intelligently responding to events rather than emotionally reacting to situations, then we can start to use our energy for more productive activities and helping others. Practicing this with the people around us such as our loved ones, our co-workers, and others is a great place to start. 

We do not see things in the world as they are but as we are. We are amidst great change and to adapt to the world around us is to change ourselves. Aim to be a greater expression of yourself everyday and the world will continue to be a happier and healthier place. Have a great week and thank you for reading!

Breast Health

  Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-             Aren’t the trees beautiful? Fall is such a beautiful time of year and the weather has been outstanding. I hope you were able to get outside and increase your vitamin D stores for the winter. Remember that vitamin D is activated by sunlight so it’s important to get some. Vitamin D is also an oil soluble vitamin so you must be consuming good fats in order to have a good vitamin D source. If you get into the science of vitamin D, you’ll find it comes from cholesterol so the mainstream medicines war on cholesterol causes vitamin D levels to be low and this causes lots of immune system problems and other issues. We help our patients be able to digest and absorb fats and watch that their vitamin D levels are optimum.             The article I’m sending along this week looks at screenings and mammograms and how they can be...

The Need to Be Right

The Need to Be Right             I’m sure that you have talked with people and discovered their need to be right. Everyone wants others to emotionally feel close to them and that what they are doing, whatever it is, is the right way to do it or is best. Many people we have talked to, have been doing things a certain way for years, or decades, or even for generations. In their mind all that time makes it seem right. The question to ask though-is it? Many of these notions are based on outdated or uninformed ideas and may have even worked well for a while but the end result is not turning out as expected. It may also take some time, as in years or decades, to see the results of a wrong idea or a wrong action. You may have heard the expression about being “happy in your misery” or “being dead right”. These are expressions about people thinking they are doing the right thing but in reality, they’re not.     ...

Communication

  Natural Health Family, how is everyone doing? I hope everyone enjoyed the beautiful weekend and got some sunshine. Today let’s talk about communication and why it is important in our lives and for our own health.  Last weekend I explored Colorado. I went snowboarding and hiked a good amount also. I learned a lot just by getting out in nature and noticing different aspects of the forest and parks. One characteristic of the forest that I found interesting was the aspen trees. It appeared that they would appear sporadically in the forest and in groups. I was curious and wanted to learn more about them. I found out that the different aspen trees or tree trunks are not separate but they actually function as one tree. The roots of the tree are well connected so that they are able to communicate and act as one organism. I found this interesting because we tend to think that the whole tree is only about what is on the surface of the ground rather than all the roots and connections...
