The Currency of Health

 Welcome back Natural Health Family. It was a great weekend filled with great weather and people coming together for celebrations. Nowadays, it appears that there are many things and events going on in the world that can be fearful and at times quite overwhelming. Much of it is causing turmoil and confusion for many people. This unfortunately causes many to become scared due to a lack of knowledge and understanding of what is happening. Nonetheless, it is important to be able to do our best to balance staying informed while also focusing on what we are able to control and make a change if needed.

So what do we have control over or what can we do for ourselves and others? When we watch the news or anything going on in the world that brings suffering or feelings of fear, anger, grief, etc. we can consider that we are able to maintain our own well being if we are aware of this happening. These feelings of course are not good or bad but if indulged in then can cause people to be focused on what is going wrong in the world rather than all the good. If we are not careful it can lead us to become negative and further depletes our energy. However, if we can see all what is happening and have a neutral lens we are able to use it to turn the tide and see what we can do to help ourselves and others. 

In these times of what seems like extremes we can come to realize more of how we respond to our environment and what is going on in the world. When we know how to take care of ourselves and do what is needed for our own well being then we are able to adapt in a more optimal manner. As the times are changing fast, health will be a much needed currency. When we are able to be healthy ourselves we are able to be more productive and also able to help others. 

So wherever you are in life know that when you help yourself with your own health you are helping others too. Our health is one thing that we do have control over. Sometimes it is a matter of taking action and doing what is right. Sometimes it means to let go and know things are working out in the proper way. When we are well we show others what is possible. Change is happening, so let’s be the change towards a healthier and happier world.


Thanks for reading.

Good Food, Digestion and Absorption

  Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-                 I hope that you had a great Thanksgiving and were actually grateful for all the food that we ate. There is a lot of good foods in the Thanksgiving meal, but also some that probably weren’t the best for us. We will just have to get back on the good eating bandwagon so that we stay healthy through the rest of these holidays coming up. I try to remind people to stay hydrated because it’s easy to forget to drink water and get your electrolytes. Staying hydrated just helps so many systems of the body and helps the pH to stay correct, which helps keep the bugs, which are in us and on us at all times, under control.                 We had a great Black Friday Open House/Patient Appreciation Day and were very thankful for the folks that came out and enjoyed some food and drink, an...

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...

  Hello everyone and natural health Nation -      Well we finally got some rain and now I’m beginning to wonder if we could turn it back off. It seems we're never happy - ha. I was surprised to see that the ground had dried out that much in a fairly short amount of time but with the rain we had this weekend, everything should be good for quite a while. I was happy to see the grass and everything green back up and the corn and beans are just growing like mad. We were working out in the rain on Saturday to finish some jobs and it was nice that it was warm. I'm sure we'll get lots of sunshine as the summer progresses and probably need more rain at some point too.      The article I'm sending along today looks at what happens to the human body when you eat processed foods. This is a problem during the summer when everyone gets into vacation mode and doesn't eat nearly as well as they did in the Spring. It's one of our problems in o...
