Without good health it is nearly impossible to maintain a state of Happiness and Wellbeing. Pain and “Dis-Ease” will inevitably detract from any headway you make in your Positive Attitude towards life and your day to day activities.
You need to both nurture and feed your body and to protect it from vulnerable areas of attack.
Take the time to check out any health areas that may be of concern to you. Take preventative action, improve your nutrition, get more active and maintain your mental health for a well balanced life.

Healthy Body
Health of the body means being well both physically and environmentally. People who are healthy tend to bounce out of bed each day refreshed from a good night’s sleep and eager to be about the challenges of the day ahead.
Not only do they have high levels of energy, they also tend to be happier, more successful, and have fuller and deeper relationships with their spouses, partners, families, friends, and co-workers.
They also enjoy and are in harmony with their environment, both at home and at work.
From the perspective of holistic medicine, achieving this optimum state of physical health is largely due to an ongoing commitment to three factors: Diet and Nutrition, Exercise, and Environmental Awareness (safeguarding against toxins and allergenic substances at home and work, including hidden allergies that can sap energy).
Becoming familiar with these factors and following the guidelines below will help you improve your health and increase your resistance to disease.

Live a Longer and Healthier Life.
You should balance your activities with the proper amount of rest. Some of the leading experts in the field of aging now believe that regular exercise along with the proper amount of rest may actually add years to the life span. Results from a number of tests indicate that speed and muscular strength of many of the elderly can be extended.
Leading authorities agree that this new data is going to shatter many of the myths about aging and physical performance. The conclusion now is that the performance and ability of the elderly has long been underestimated. Diet, proper sleep and exercise along with rest and relaxation are all important factors in preserving our bodies.
Laughter is one of the best things for your mental and physical state. People are naturally attracted to someone who has a good sense of humor. You can develop a good outlook and a good sense of humor by associating with and surrounding yourself with pleasant happy people.
Recognize that stress is a killer. A life filled with stress can really wreck havoc on your body, causing a number of illnesses such as heart attacks, strokes, asthma, gastric problems, menstrual disorders, ulcerative colitis, angina, irritable colon, increased blood pressure, ulcers, headaches, etc.
There are different types of stress such as mental, emotional and physical. Emotional stress seems to take the greatest toll on everyone. All stress is not bad; in fact life would not be very interesting if it were not met with challenges. However, too much stress, too often with no effective and appropriate outlet, does not allow the body and soul to recuperate.
You might review a typical week to see if you can identify things that might be making you anxious or causing you stress. Once identified, stressors can be attacked and eliminated.
Are you a worrier? Chronic worriers don’t have more serious problems than others – they just think they do. Many worriers try to cope by trying not to think about their problems, but this just makes things worse. Doctors say that chronic worriers feel less anxious if they actually spend a half-hour a day thinking specifically about their problems.
Get plenty of exercise. People who are physically fit look good and feel good. A good exercise regimen will lengthen your life, improve your appearance, build self confidence and help delay the aging process.
Remember that you need to do something physical every day. If you don’t use your joints, quite simply they’ll tighten up with age to create the stooped, bent and worn out appearance we so often associate with old age.
Studies have shown that people with arthritis experience less pain if they continue to keep their joints flexible. As one gets older, the bones tend to get brittle which is why it is common for senior citizens to break bones and especially their hips when they fall.
Eating right, getting proper sleep and learning to relax are all very valuable in maintaining a healthy body and mind. And keep in mind that eating healthy foods and avoiding those high in fats, sodium and cholesterol will help decrease your risk of heart disease, high blood pressure and associated problems.

Health and wellbeing self help article:
If I were asked which is the area of greatest misunderstanding and confusion in the field of nutrition, I would immediately be forced to reply that it is the failure to properly understand and interpret the symptoms and changes which follow the beginning of a better nutritional program.
What is meant by a better nutritional program?
It is the introduction of foods of higher quality in place of lower quality ones. For example, if a person replaces a protein rich food such as pork with beef, the beef may be considered the superior of the two due to its easier digestibility, lower and less saturated fat content, etc.; chicken is superior to beef and fish is superior to chicken because of its more rapid digestibility and lower saturated fat content. Lima beans, lentils, or chick peas, which are eaten at the same meal with vegetables are superior in all the nutrients needed to rebuild health.
As we go higher on the scale of quality, we begin to include protein rich food which may be eaten in the unfired state, such as cheese which is made from raw milk and unsalted. Then we ascend to the nuts and seeds which are eaten in the natural state (raw and unsalted).
To summarize: the closer the food comes to the natural state in which it occurs, or the closer to its raw, unfired form, the higher its quality. In this condition, all the enzymes are found intact.
The amino acids are in their finest form. The minerals, vitamins, trace elements, carbohydrates, and “life force” are present. The life force, in turn, is capable of reproducing healthy tissue.
This same classification of quality which we analyzed in relation to protein rich foods applies to the carbohydrates (the starch and sugar-rich foods), the fats, and the mineral-rich foods.
The quality of a nutritional program is also improved by omitting toxic substances such as coffee, tea, chocolate, tobacco, salt, pepper, etc. from your diet.
What is the relation of quality of foods to recovery from illness? It is this in a nutshell:
The higher the quality of food we eat, the quicker we recover from disease, provided we are able to digest and assimilate properly.
To this must be added the knowledge of
(a) proper food combining;
(b) proper order of eating the different kinds of food at a meal, e.g., the most easily digested food should be eaten first, the more complex one second, and the most concentrated item last;
(c) the correct quantity of food to be consumed (of each type) in the meal; and
(d) the correct time for eating (when hungry and not by the clock).
Now, what happens when a person follows these rules and makes a decided improvement in the quality of food consumed?
Remarkable things begin to happen to the body as well as the mind. The amazing intelligence present in every cell of the body and the wisdom of the body in its operation immediately becomes manifest.

NUTRITION SUPPLEMENTS
help to provide the essential fuels for your body when good nutrition is not always possible.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A wise practitioner once said never to purchase parachutes, contact lenses or pacemakers based solely on bargain basement prices.
The same principle holds true for vitamin and mineral supplements. You usually get exactly what you pay for.
Following time honored practices of the drug industry, many “natural” food supplements contain an awesome list of synthetic fillers. In general, the more filler, the cheaper the supplement.
If it’s in a tablet, the chances are close to 100% that some type of harmful filler will be found in the tablet.
With some exceptions, pure substances such as vitamin, mineral chelates, herbs or amino acids do not possess the necessary characteristics which allow them to be compressed directly without the addition of binders, lubricants, diluents, disintegrators, coloring and flavoring agents.
The larger the tablet, the more it requires the use of binders such as hydrogenated oils (e.g. calcium or magnesium stearate). Smaller tablets may be manufactured using the cellulose derivatives (ethyl, methyl) as binders.
Time release tablets are perhaps the most worrisome. For example, the release of 1000 mg. of Vitamin C over a period of 6 hours may require the addition of 400 mg. of hydrogenated oil (plastic butter) to the tablet. The addition of more oil prolongs the release, while the use of less allows quicker disintegration.
Supplements in a vegetable-based capsule, powder or liquid form do not have such requirements and are far less likely to contain toxic additives.
If you are a strict vegetarian, beware of gelatin-encapsulated supplements. Gelatin used in the manufacture of capsules is derived from collagenous beef (bovine) or pork (porcine/swine) material.
Although it is true that most healthy people will have no obvious side effects from ingesting the small amount of toxins found in cheap vitamins, the long term consequences of continuous, daily intakes are potentially dangerous.
Over 7% of the population displays sensitivity to these chemicals which, for the most part, do not elicit immediate allergic reactions in the average healthy person.
Allergic reactions can affect any organ system in the body including the brain which often displays symptoms such as fatigue, memory loss, depression, anxiety, hallucinations and insomnia.
Today, the most commonly used excipients in drugs, vitamin, mineral and other tableted items are listed below:

WEIGHT MANAGEMENT to look good and feel great
Ten Success Strategies Every Dieter Should Know by Dr. John H. Maher
1. Attaining and maintaining lean body mass is a lifetime commitment, needing lifetime lifestyle strategies.
2. Ease on Down the Diet Road: Making gradual adjustments in food, exercise and supplementation works better for long-term weight-loss than drastic measures you cannot maintain.
3. Eat small frequent meals, well chewed, slowly eaten. Give thanks before meals. Put your fork, spoon, or food down between each bite.
4. Start eating early and try to get most of your calories in by 3-5 PM.
5. When hungry between meals, try 8 to 16 oz of water first. Green tea is likely even better. Perhaps add fiber (psyllium, oat bran, chitosan) to the water to “fill you up” and absorb fat and bile.
6. Eat vegetable-based clear soups and fish frequently.
7. Create “reward meals”. The key to a long-term strategy of eating well is not having to be being perfect. Have some “planned cheating” or a “cheat allowance” built into your strategy.
8. Always start with a sensible, balanced nutrient dense nutrition strategy combined with exercise and supplements.
Move to the more extreme and restricted strategies only as proved necessary. Then “cycle” or “sandwich” these more extreme strategies with a balanced nutrient dense wide variety strategy.
This way you will not get “bored” with the more restrictive strategies, which are very difficult to maintain for long periods of time for most of us.
Don’t play the “all or nothing” Yo-Yo diet game.
9. If obese, high sodium intake significantly increases death risk, regardless of blood pressure. So if you are obese be moderate in sodium from salt and additives.
10. Look in the mirror every day, preferably before or after showering, and tell the person in the mirror you love him/her.
Regardless of your physical appearance, fatten up with self-love the real person inside!Dr. John H. Maher, Editor.,”Longevity News” Your FREE Anti-Aging Prescription On-line. Webite: RxforWe

FITNESS & EXERCISE – SPORTS & RECREATION: healthy activities for your body, including EXERCISE are the most powerful ways to increase your energy and stamina to enjoy life to the fullest
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Create an Instant Energy Surge, self help article for parents by Momscape.com
Give yourself the gift of an energy boost, right now.
The joy of physical movement is a gift you can give yourself every day. The energy boost from such movement is instantaneous and lasts for hours.
Too often, we envision exercise as something we *have* to do. We feel obligated to work out. It becomes a chore.
Let us instead envision daily exercise as a *gift* you give to your mind, body, and soul. Because it is a gift.
By exercising:
– You are giving yourself a break from the pressures of the world.
– You are giving yourself the gift of enhanced creativity and a higher state of alertness the whole day through.
– You are giving yourself the gift of inward calm.
– You are giving yourself the gift of time. (A daily workout may even mean you’ll need to sleep less).
– You are giving yourself the gift of better health, perhaps even a longer life.
– You are giving yourself the gift of energy, because a daily workout will boost your energy like nothing else.
– You are giving yourself the physical joy of movement.
The gift of feeling your pulse in your face, the hair moving on your head. This is the gift of a blissful present moment experience: the gift of feeling truly alive and vibrant.
MAKING IT HAPPEN
Even when we think of it as a gift, a daily workout can be difficult to weave into our crammed schedules.
If you’re strapped for time, focus on intensity in a cardiovascular workout.
That’s what gives you the most intense energy rush. (Of course, you’ll still want to be sure to stretch, warm up, cool down, and drink plenty of water).
Exercise outdoors whenever possible. Think of the time as pure soul food, because it is.
Above all, remember that an exercise regimen is one of the best things you can do for your body, heart, mind, and soul. Make the time. Article continued on link for HE104

“On Pins and Needles – Acupuncture for Your Health &
Magnets – Not Just for Your Refrigerator”
Acupuncture works by stimulating certain points on the body to heal you. A certified professional will first do an analysis by asking you questions about your health history and your current condition. He or she will also look at your skin color, tongue appearance, and dental health, as well as other things about your body.
Magnets used for health can either be placed directly over the point of the pain or over the acupuncture point associated with the pain. A professional can help you determine placement. Arthritis is the most common affliction healed with magnetics, but they can also be used for back pain, headache, tennis elbow, and foot pain, as well as a number of other aches and pains.
“Stand Straight! The Alexander Technique &
Mind and Body Movement – The Trager Approach”
An alternative medical treatment, the true effect of the Alexander Technique is still being studied and will be sure to attract skeptics for decades to come, as do other forms of alternative medicine, such as acupuncture, meditations, light therapy, and prayer. Studies have shown, however, that the Alexander Technique can work, so it is an option you should be sure to research and consider if you are looking for new treatment methods.
The Trager Approach is a gentle and long-lasting type of therapy. Practitioners stress that the results are cumulative—meaning that the more times you see a professional, the better you will feel. The technique involves both mind and body, providing patients with a relaxing kind of treatment.
“Rolfing – A Modern Type of Stress Relief &
Touches that Heal – Therapeutic Touch”
Rolfing is a physical technique that involves the manipulation of a body’s soft tissues. Rolfing organizes the relationships of soft tissues to each other in order to bring about a harmonious body structure and freer movement patterns. It is currently being used in many circles of alternative medicine and is thought to be an excellent process for helping a person relieve stress and move more freely.
Therapeutic touch is a form of “laying on of hands” that involves the exchange of energy from one person to another. This will allow one person to give his or her own energy to a person who is sick or in pain, therefore helping to cure that person.
“What is Homeopathy &
What is Polarity Therapy”
Classical homeopathy can help with a number of illnesses and pains including, but not limited to AIDS, arthritis, irritable bowel syndrome, headaches, PMS, dyslexia, insomnia, infertility, depression, digestive disorders, autism, and asthma.
Polarity therapy is a technique that is based off the human energy field, which is comprised of the electromagnetic patterns expressed in mental, emotional, and physical responses. When someone is sick, it is said that their human energy field is in bad condition, and thus needs to be repaired through polarity therapy.
“Healthy Eating – More Complicated than You Thought &
What is Light Therapy?”
Traditionally, the detox diet is used for those who are struggling to quit drug or alcohol abuse. There are now many other known ways in which this can help a person’s health as well.
Detox diets include more than simply removing addictive substances from your menu—and the diet itself is quiet complicated if you do not first research and understand the food that you should be avoiding in your daily diet.
Light therapy is known to be a cure for several disorders, but the most common is known as winter depression. Just like the name states, this is a mental and physical condition of depression that occurs during wintertime. It is theorized that this depression comes about because of the lack of sunlight in many places during the winter months.
“Yoga and Health – An Alternative Form of Exercise &
What’s the Buzz – Apitherapy”
Yoga has long been used as an alternative form of healthy exercise. Today, a variety of yoga schools have become popular, so if you want to try this technique of healing and preventative health, research them all before signing up for a class.
Apitherapy is the use of bee products to cure your pains, prevent serious medical conditions, or make life more comfortable for those suffering from chronic illnesses. Most people do not know about this technique, but you should explore it with your regular doctor to see if it may help you.
“Hypnosis as Alternative Treatment &
Sweet Sounds – Music Therapy”
Medical hypnosis, or hypnotherapy, can be used to treat a variety of conditions. Hollywood has caused a number of stereotypical misunderstandings to shadow the world of hypnosis, but the fact is that most hypnotists do not cause their patients to perform funny or embarrassing acts.
Using music as a cure for a person’s physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing has been practiced for centuries, although it was never referred to as a professional science. Even though everyone does not consider it so, music therapy still makes up a significant part of alternative medicine.
“Crystals and Gemstones – Not Just for Decoration &
Feeling the Rainbow – What is Color Therapy &
Amen – Prayer for Health”
– This technique uses crystals and gemstones on the body in the belief that they encourage the healing process. There are a number of ways in which you can do this, and professionals have specific techniques that they use in conjunction with spiritual and physical healing.
– Color therapy, or chromotherapy as it is called in scientific circles, is the use of colors to affect and change moods and both physical and mental conditions.
– Studies today are focusing on the validity of prayer for health. The alternative to traditional treatments can be used to help a person both physically and spiritually, but studies are now looking at whether prayer can be used in place of other medical procedures or if it is simply something to use in conjunction with traditional treatment options.
