Dark To Light

 Hello Natural Health Family! I imagine everyone enjoyed themselves at least some during the past weekend. I have been contemplating the health of our country and even the world. It comes up in discussion here and there for various reasons when talking to others. Let’s then discuss a way of seeing health and illness to gain a different perspective. 

When you think of health and illness what do you think? You may think of a virus, a flu, a cold, or friends or relatives suffering from certain health related issues. It could be the many dis-eases that are commonly found in the country. Or perhaps the different establishments that are associated with health including offices and hospitals. Nonetheless, many times our minds will go to the illness rather than the health. We hear about sickness and issues all the time on social platforms including television. We see the commercials about how this drug can help with this issue, the latest product on helping with this problem, or the suffering of people with certain conditions. Not only is the media impressing on us about the illness, but our minds tend to be directed to the negative aspects. This is due to a survival instinct that was helpful in the past but not so much in this day and age. 


So what if we switched our view and let ourselves see life differently. Many times people think about illness as a condition that we get that is due to a chemical imbalance, old age, or that we were made with incorrect “blueprints.” This may be due to the education back then or what we thought of previously. However, new research and evidence is showing otherwise. When learning a new understanding we are able to realize that our health and healing is much more attainable than we thought. Our bodies are amazing at what they do and with the new information available we can realize that we can take action to help ourselves. We can let go of our previous limits and embrace a new understanding of health. 


When the country with the best technology in the world is last when it comes to overall health, it starts to force people to ask why. For many years we have been so focused on the problems that may or may not cause health issues. However, when we switch our focus on our own power and ability to attain health we will start to see a great change. Let’s not figure out why the room is dark but rather flip the switch and let the light shine.


Have a great week!

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...
