Seeing With A New Lens

 Welcome back Natural Health Family. We had some technical issues last week so didn’t get the last post out. Sometimes life doesn’t always go the way we think it does. This may make us react in certain ways. However, let’s have a discussion about life events and explore this topic some more. 

When is the last time something didn’t quite work out the way you thought it would? You may have actually planned an event but the weather was not so welcoming. Maybe you were on a vacation where things didn’t line up the way you thought. Or your day was going well until it wasn’t with whatever the circumstance may be. Life can throw some curveballs here and there. I think we all can relate that there are highs and lows in the course of a lifetime. Nonetheless, if we look back we can see that sometimes what we thought was something that didn’t go right actually led us to something better. 


When we are able to see things differently the things we see change. Many times people get caught up thinking about why this or that happened. They might think that they know the cause or feel like it’s not going their way. When an event happens we must see it for what it is. If instead of reacting to the environment we are able to respond then we won’t be swayed back and forth so much depending on what’s going on around us. When we are able to change the way we see or interpret something we can move forward with greater ease. 


We all have a choice to see things, events, and others in a different light. We may have heard that when things seem to be falling apart, really they are falling into place. When we don’t understand fully what is going on it takes faith to be able to let life unfold and when we can make the changes needed. Let’s not come to conclusions so fast but rather leave space for something new to develop.


Thanks 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...
