New Webring!

If anyone has questions, let me know!

I’m headed to Ohio, to the Sound Health Institute for a conference on Bioacoustics. And I am very excited!

Wish me luck everyone. Hopefully I’ll learn lots and meet some great people, and possibly enjoy myself thoroughly.

In the meantime, if anyone needs me, you can still call or email me. I will have my phone on silent but will be returning calls in the evenings.

I’m back on the 4th of October. See you then!

It’s a busy start to this school year. I find once the summer ends by the school’s standards, people realize they’ve been fooling themselves into thinking they don’t have a care in the world, and soon start looking for something to help them feel better. It’s the sun. It’s the warmth. We are happier with copious amounts of Vitamin D coursing through our veins. Autistic children show less symptoms in the summer months if they see the outside regularly. People who have injured themselves heal faster. We all sleep better. Our hair grows faster. And then it hits us: the cold, crisp autumn weather. The outdoors seem less friendly, and we sit in our houses and curse the thermometer for dipping lower and lower. Our bones and joints become stiffer like an old diesel car, waking up from several nights sitting unused. But this isn’t the way it has to be! We can take control. We can give in to our body’s demands and go outside, join a gym and actually make use of the membership, walk our dogs, ride our bikes, wear a few extra layers of clothes and welcome the cold with open arms, knowing that only in enjoying our time will it pass by faster.

And if you have any ailments, come see me.

I found this article today and I really can’t believe it.

Do people really not know the point of evolution? I think trying to produce a monoculture of something has always been a mistake. From its impact on honeybee populations (see http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/8467746.stm), to jackpines (https://tspace.library.utoronto.ca/bitstream/1807/14045/1/MQ46003.pdf), as well as bird populations all over the world.

Cloning cows to produce the best-tasting meat possible sounds unconscionable, unethical, and downright disgusting to me.

If you are of a different opinion and have some insight that would make it seem better, please enlighten me. I guess this is where you get to when you’re taught to think of living things as products or profits. Treating cows like dollar bills that can be cloned or photocopied or “reanimated” would make perfect sense then. But doesn’t that sound like counterfeiting just a little too much? Won’t people realize that there is more to taste than what’s on our tongues? Because the thought of eating “reanimated” beef turns my stomach.

I found these two articles and thought they were pretty interesting! They kind of make me want to run around barefoot now. It also makes me wonder about all those kids who hate shoes and constantly try to take them off.

Remember, free clinic is still on. Every Friday. Come out and try this for yourself!

If you don’t have any ailments, that’s ok, too. This method is great to relax you and help you sleep better, boosts your energy throughout the day, and is an interesting and one-of-a-kind experience.

Book ahead or drop in.

Make sure you are getting enough water every day. You’ll find that your body will function better when it’s at optimal hydration. I often forget to drink water and regret it in the evening when I’m a little groggy, and tired, and maybe moody. Forcing down a liter of water at that moment usually helps me. A lot. You will find your own schedule and when the best times to drink water are, but if you stay hydrated throughout the day, you will feel better. Especially now that it’s summer and the hot weather is moving in. Take care of your body and show yourself some love with a bit of water.

Here’s a great article from Natural News:

I subscribe to a few  health journals, and sometimes come across some good articles. I figured I’d post a couple for you.

This first one has to do with Asthma as well as some other potentially fatal diseases. http://www.naturalnews.com/028981_quercetin_lung_disease.html

The second one is more general about exercise and how it affects your brain as you age. http://fitness.mercola.com/sites/fitness/archive/2010/06/12/growing-evidence-links-exercise-and-mental-acuity.aspx?aid=CD945

Enjoy!

I’ve had a few people ask me about Candida (yeast), and possible ways to get rid of it. You can come to me, and I would recommend you seek a health or wellness professional to check whether or not you are in fact dealing with Candida and not anything else. I have a free clinic every Friday. Come and I’ll be able to tell you what is going on.

In the meantime, this site has some great info as well as links to other sites with info on Candida and how to get rid of it.
