  • How You Can Use Positive Affirmations To Accomplish More - The mind is an incredible creation. Our mind controls our health, wellness, longevity, youthfulness and even our success, learning, wealth and prosperity. It truly is "mind over matter" isn't it?

Doctors say the average individual must drink two liters of water daily just to stay healthy. But our complicated lives tend to keep us from drinking anywhere near the amount of water we need. Instead of reaching for a glass of water, most of us grab a soda or pour a cup of coffee. The result is the vast majority of people -- 75% of Americans -- are going through life dehydrated. Even mild dehydration can cause a variety of ailments, making it the hidden culprit behind many of today's common health problems. Mild dehydration makes you feel sluggish, often causes the urge to eat, causes poor memory, and even contributes to colon cancer.

  • The Brain-Body Connection and Structural Stress - Structure is the foundation of the human body and of the Triad of Health. All the physical actions, activities and encounters we experience in our lives have the potential to mold and shape the structure of our body.

Physical pain is considered by many to be more real than emotional pain. Even the healthiest person may have an accident in which a bone is broken. How that bone heals will depend on many factors, including the person's emotional strength and chemical balance.

  • The Importance Of Dietary Alkalinity For Runners - Ok, you might be wondering... "What on earth is alkalinity and what does it have to do with my running performance?" Well, very simply it refers to a pH reading that is opposite of acidic. The pH scale operates from 0 to 14 with 0 being the most acidic reading and 14 the most alkaline. 7 represents a neutral level. When you consume and digest foods they are broken down and become acid-forming or alkaline-forming in your body. The difference between the two is crucial to understand. Naturally, your body wants to be slightly alkaline. However, there are specific areas in your body which need to be slightly more acidic, such as the stomach and urinary tract, in order to properly perform their functions.

The essential minerals are the inorganic equivalents of the essential organic vitamins. They work together to maintain the biochemistry that keeps you alive. Take calcium, for example.

"Stress" has become such a common household word that we use it to describe everything from the rush of the morning commute to the hours of homework our children complete after their mandatory club soccer practices. The average person who I see in my practice is on six to ten medications. Young boys are on Ritalin for attention deficit problems and girls are on anti-depressants. Why? The culprit is stress. Most often, you are speaking of emotional stress when you use the "s" word. Stress is harmful because stress imbalances every hormone system in your body.

  • Eating To Beat Pregnancy Fatigue - Ask any pregnant woman who is in her first or third trimester how they are feeling and the answer will almost always be "tired".

  • Go Deep: Yoga Backbends - Most yoga students HATE backbends, but desperately want to learn them. The truth is that most yoga teachers also HATE backbends, so often they don’t teach them very well or very often. My backbends used to be really pathetic—I mean REALLY pathetic. I went to class every day, asked my teachers for tips, but not much was happening.

  • Does Your Child Need A Multi-Vitamin? - Many people wonder if children should take a daily multivitamin.

Government surveys have found that 90% of American adults do not get the recommended amounts of essential vitamins and minerals, so one can only image how much worse our children are eating. Foods that are fortified are often pale imitations of the original whole foods, as nutrients have been stripped away by the processing that occurs. These foods rarely add nutrition similar to anything whole foods would have contained. The medical journal JAMA, recommends that most Americans take a daily vitamin.

You don’t need to starve yourself or spend countless hours at the gym either. You just need to get diet savvy and learn the truth about food. The bottom line is that every piece of cooked food that crosses your lips taxes your body, causing you to accumulate toxins over time. This dangerous accumulation of cooked-food residue burdens your organs of elimination (bowels, kidneys, liver, lungs, and skin).
  • The Dangers Of Excess Salt And How To Reduce Your Intake - We all know that excess salt is not good for our health. But did you know that the effects of a high salt diet could contribute to Alzheimer's disease, asthma, stomach cancer, hypertension, and kidney stones?

And after all, salt does provide us with much needed sodium and greatly appreciated flavor. But oftentimes, we over do it. Salt is readily available in so many forms, that we may not even know how much salt we are actually consuming.

If needed, choose natural, whole food vitamins.
  • Candida And Colonics, Potential Cure? - If you are suffering from candida problems, a colon cleanse product such as Oxy-Powder can significantly help you.

Candida problems can happen when the digestive system becomes overpopulated with harmful yeast bacteria and that can result in many unpleasant side effects such as rashes, thrush and all kinds of other health problems. More experts than ever recognize candida related symptoms as impacting many areas of health and wellness. Colon cleansing as a candida cure is becoming widely recognized.
