While many people don’t hear the word “sex” and immediately think, “great health,” it shouldn’t be dismissed. People who are interested in sex and have a healthy sex life tend to have better immune systems and tend to live longer.
Why is this? There are several reasons. One is that sex has been shown to reduce stress levels, thereby reducing the levels of cortisol and in effect, lowering blood pressure. High blood pressure, over time, can lead to heart attack, stroke, blindness and kidney damage.
It is also proven that having sex at least twice a week increased the levels of immunoglobulin A, which helps to fight off colds and other viruses. Avoiding illness means avoiding missed work and a potential trip to the doctor. Read the rest of this entry »

“You aren’t going to believe this,” wrote a good friend of mine in an email, “I’ve just returned from the dentist and I was watching fish the entire time!”
My friend went on to say that while he was lying in the chair having his exam performed, he was also viewing a giant aquarium which had been installed.
This was different from his usual exams with his previous dentist. In an attempt to make him feel relaxed, he believed, they asked him questions which required him to try to talk while having dental instruments in his mouth. Read the rest of this entry »

A reader wrote in recently asking about what she could do about her anxiety that she suffered with daily, because of her house and the condition of it. The anxiety wasn’t because it was dilapidated or had structural damage or was too small. It was because of the clutter, dust, and dirt.
She was struggling with a daily frustration that caused a lot of strife at home, which was that her version of clean and her family’s version of clean were very different things. She likes a tidy space, free of clutter and grime. Her family didn’t seem to care about their living conditions. Read the rest of this entry »

A friend of mine emailed me the other day and that was the first sentence. She was frustrated because she had always been in pretty good health for most of her life, with the exception of a childhood illness here or accident there. But otherwise she was in great shape.
Then, she started noticing some elements of her life are functioning differently- and in a negative way. This was disturbing to the woman who had always considered herself to be slim, strong, attractive and youthful. Read the rest of this entry »

Many of my article ideas come from readers who would like more information on a certain topic or would like the readership to be aware of a condition. A reader recently wrote in about a condition called Polymyalgia Rheumatica.
This condition, which involves many of the same symptoms of fibromyalgia (FMS), is a separate condition that has characteristics that are definitive and specific, making diagnosis more of a certainty than fibromyalgia.
Similarities include malaise (feeling ill), fatigue (feeling extremely tired), unintentional weight loss, joint pain, muscle pain and face pain. Read the rest of this entry »

A number of clients have emailed me explaining how they look and feel after they’ve lost weight. I like the results that eating right and exercise gives me and it makes me appreciate the way my body looks.
My Weight Loss Breeze program has been such a success for my clients that it’s hard to count the number of responses I haven gotten regarding the program. Not only have my clients lost weight, but they have lowered their blood pressure and have an overall increase in health and well being.
In order for the program to be successful, it has to become a habit. A habit is just a matter of repetition. But for those who do not have a regular habit of healthy living, the problem is that they aren’t sure where to begin.

Many mixed messages exist in the modern media regarding the causes and effects of health issues. A good portion of the modern world is somewhat obsessed with the immediate relief of pain and quick and easy easy ‘cures’ to common discomforts.
Face it. It’s much more convenient to swallow a small pill or two or three when one feels poorly since we know in less than a half hour we’ll be able to return back to our stressful lives and create more pain.
How do the painkillers and muscle relaxers risk our health though? There are bleeding disorders, liver and kidney damage, and the increasing expenses due to purchasing the many anti-inflammatory medications we keep stockpiled in our shelves. We also risk losing the protective mucus that lines the stomach. That then leads to ulcers. For those who carry Helicobacter pylori (the ulcer bug) a doubly bad effect can occur for nearly 15% of those individuals.

Many of my clients are humiliated to admit they have erectile dysfunction. Most are unaware that there is an easy healthy way to cure this. They often feel as if there is no hope for relief.
Believe it or not, but several men find themselves worthless, with this condition. This is very personal and sometimes very hard for men to talk about to others. I can personally relate to this.
Men could consider this condition as a psychological problem, however it is not. This is a physiological condition. Research has proved to us that more than seventy percent of men suffer from this. Today, research is so high tech, that is had shown us these proven facts.

Being that I fly quiet often, I have learned many things about people by just observing people and their actions. I couldn’t tell you everything about the person but just these little actions can show a lot.
Many of you wouldn’t know that I am also a therapist, so not only an expert on listen to people but I also look at body language and that can tell you more than any word ever could.
We can all always spot out the person(s) who show fear in their eyes when getting ready to board an airplane. You can see them holding onto the armrests, they tend to sweat, and closing their eyes with fear of being on the plane.
