Don’t Sweat The Small Stuff

 Hi Everyone at Natural Health! I would like to keep this message short. As we head into the week after the holiday Memorial Day celebration it is up to us to make the most of what we have in our lives. We remember those who served and passed because we are able to live our lives now. 

This holiday weekend reminds us of the hardships that many faced in the past. Although tragic and saddening, the battles were fought for us to live and enjoy what we have now. When we think of relative terms we can see that some of the many things that we take for granted now we still may get stressed out about later. What our brothers and sisters had to go through in the past helps us realize that life can be a gift if we choose to see it that way. Of course there are times where we get caught up in the mundane or the small peculiarities which cause further issues. Nonetheless, it is our ability to see the bigger picture and let go of small or insignificant problems knowing that life tends to work itself out if we let it. 


Wherever you are in life I hope you can take a breath, focus on what you can do, and remember that life can be short so live it the best you can. Of course we all die in this life, but those who fought and died were able to help us with that opportunity or you could say that gift of a life well lived. God bless and 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...
