Our lives are continuously being bombarded with information. The 21st century is the age of information. We are addicted to it. We eat to it, drive to it, do almost everything with it in our presence. It's always there. On our cell phone, television, radio, newspaper, magazine, PC, etc.
Have you ever thought about the content of the information you are engulfing daily? How much of it is uplifting, affirming, encouraging? Or is it condeming, destructive, death-dealing, down right difficult? Ever notice how you feel after listening to either one? What was the rest of your day/nite like? How is your body responding to it? Do you know?
Most are do not tune into the affects of external information, so what about the internal? Our body is constantly talking to us, what is it saying? What does it want for us or from us?
We need to tune into our internal dialogue in order to better understand ourselves and the impact of external information on us. Did you know that one's blood pressure elevates with negative information and lowers with positive?
Our bodies are affected by EVERYTHING we take in. So we may want to be aware of the amount of negative information we allow in our lives.
We've all heard the saying, "Take time to smell the roses." By doing this we are in effect allowing ourselves time to enjoy the positive things in life. Read uplifting books, enjoy sitting in the sun at lunch, take a walk around the neighborhood and visiting with loved ones. It will improve your overall health and well-being.
While doing the positive things, note how your body feels. Where did that headache go, and the pain in your (body part)? Interesting how it works, but it does. Try it and let me know your response.

Getting back to basics
The more technologically advanced we get, the more we need to return to simple things that work! Like, truly resting when tired and going to bed at a reasonable time. Unfortunately, we think we have to keep up with technology while our body is saying something else.
Just because we have a television doesn't mean we have to be watching it all hours of the night when we should be sleeping and renewing our body for a new day. Also, why is it we have to have the latest in "drinks"? Energy drinks are the rave, but what are they doing to our adrenals? Do you suffer from tiredness, fatigue, etc? Then you need rest, not caffeine or energy supplements. Are you familiar with Sympathetic overload? That's when your nervous system is working overtime because your adrenals are producing too much cortisol or stress hormones, which lead to the above conditions. So why would we want to further aggravate the situation with energy drinks or caffeine? We are and we are suffering for it. Is there a better way? What about water? You know, that natural stuff the all life depends on, even us!
Did you know that by the time you're thirsty, you're already dehydrated? Thirst is the last signal the body gives denoting a need for water. Thirst will come as a headache, muscle pain, high blood pressure, stiffness, allergies, fatigue and much more. In his book, "You're not sick, you're thirsty", Dr. Batmanjheldi explains "essential dehydration and the medical affects it has on our bodies.
I was astonished to find out that a lot of the "dis-eases" we are being medicated for are due to DEHYDRATION!!!! Check out the book, the info is enlightening.
I guess, what I'm saying here is that we need to begin rehydrating ourselves. But,is all water the same? Did you know that a lot of the bottled waters we consume are not good for you? I didn't until I was shown at a demonstration in Orlando recently. That's what interested me in reading books on hydration and alkalization. The information helped me to see that our bodies need to be alkaline in order to work efficiently.
Check out : http://www.anewu4ever.com/ to learn more about alkaline water and it's benefits. Going back to the basics can truly change you life and make it a whole lot better.
Since I started drinking alkaline water, I feel and sleep better, have increase energy and stamina; elimination issues are a thing of the past and an overall sense of well-being! Just by drinking alkaline water!!!!! What can it do for you? Give me a shout and I will get some for you and your loved ones. You will be glad you did, I am. My whole family feels better and so will yours. I can be reached at: 904 389-0030 or email me @ Kimberlyareaves@comcast.net for your free sample of alkaline water.

How much do you value your health?
We all take health for granted, until we become ill or are hurt and in pain. We usually go to the doctor and get meds that help but don't necessarily heal the issue. What would you do if you were told there wasn't anything the doctor could do for you? Would you accept that and allow yourself to stay in that condition or would you seek out other ways to regain your health?
I recently started working on a client that had knee problems. The mds couldn't find anything wrong with her so they gave her meds and sent her home. The knee pain made it difficult for her to get around. She started using a cane. This helped her get around, but the pain was taking its toll. When I met her, she was in terrific pain. I suggested alternative therapies such as massage and The BodyTalk System.
When she came to me, she was in excruciating pain throughout her entire body. How could knee pain do this, you ask? Within 2 weeks we both could see a difference. The stress in her body was reduced, her face wasn't straining from pain and her demeanor was improved. But we had a long road ahead of us.
As I worked on her, I noticed she was not only in pain but fear as well. She was afraid of the pain increasing with the work we were doing which made it difficult for her to "release" the tension in her body, thus causing her whole body to hurt. I realized that I had to help her release the fear before we could make physical changes. I gave her homework to do to help her understand the limitations she was putting on herself with the fear.
We continued treatment with great results. She now is coming in for therapy with a better demeanor. She is able to see the progress she is making.
The moral of the story is: Don't take NO for an answer. Seek out alternative and complementary therapies that work with you complete mind, body and spirit. You only have one body, so take the best care of it!
