Change of Plans

 Good day Natural Health Family! Appreciate everyone for being a part of this community and wanting to better your health through more natural means. It was a good weekend. However, I did have fun plans that got canceled close to the last minute. Sometimes that is just how things happen. Life doesn’t always have to go the way we think, but that doesn’t make it better or worse. 

Have you ever had plans that didn’t go the way you intended? Maybe it was a vacation experience where you had everything planned to a T but then as the days went on the plans just fell apart. What about a time where you wanted something to go one way for so long, but then 5 years later you could see it from a different angle and say “wow, glad it didn’t go that way.” Many times we want things to work out exactly as we want it to or the way we have thought about it. We know that many times life doesn’t go that way though. Plans get canceled, activities get rescheduled, and we experience events that may seem to turn our lives upside down. These are points in life that can affect us in two ways, it can either cause us to feel victim to circumstances that we experience or it can be times of learning, embracing, and trusting that there may be a lesson in what we may perceive as a mistake, as an unfortunate event, or devastating occurrence. 


We all can react to different happenings in life. It is important that we don’t allow them to dictate our behaviors and actions for too long afterwards. We can help ourselves by seeing the situation through another lens and allowing life to bring something new. Life can give us problems or lessons, it’s up to us to choose to see which one it can be. 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...
