The P.A.I.N. Plan -- Keeps You Out of Trouble

Coming soon...JAN. 15 - Eat, Smile, & Still Lose Weight CLICK HERE
........

[Picture:www.pressies4princesses.co.uk/ouch-plasters.shtml]

Yesterday, I woke up with a stiff neck that hurt every time I turned my head or raised my arms. Time to go to the chiropractor with great urgency right?

What if I said, "No?"

Typically people get adjusted when they are in pain and that is fine. We are human and pain happens.

But the "die-hard" chiro that I am, I know chiropractic is not for pain. It is for healing energy.

If you want to heal well, get adjusted. If you want to heal from the things you don't even feel yet? Get adjusted.

I did not get adjusted yesterday. I will get adjusted at my regular appointment. "Once a week to stay at your peak." I already have a routine appointment scheduled.

How about you?

In my office I offer a special discount for folks who want to get adjusted once a week.

What should you really do for pain?
Use the P.A.I.N. guide I have posted on the wall in the office.

P. Psychological - What has been overwhelming your mind and emotions over the last few weeks?

A. Absorption - Are you getting the right nutrition? Are you absorbing your nutrients? Are you chemically toxic and not letting go of these toxins?

I. Injuries - Are old injuries affecting your performance today? Are you prepared to handle future injuries?

N. Nervous System - Are you fully appreciating how wonderful your nervous system is taking care of you today? Are you giving your nervous system the chiropractic nurturing it needs? Are you doing the D.N.A. Protocol?
--------------------
Here is my personal analysis as I work through this injury:

P. I am not overly stressed over anything. Yep, you heard me right. The night before my stiff neck, I was relaxing watching a movie. The past week has been very quiet.

A. I did blow my low carb eating in a big way this week. I am probably short on trace minerals since carbs rob us of these. I could use more magnesium. I need to do a nutritional cleanse. All of us do after the holidays.

I. I did two workouts the day before my stiff neck appeared the next morning. I may have "slept funny." I also have a weakness since I injured my neck in 2008. I also have a "straight neck" with arthritis I attribute to a head injury when I was five years old. I fell head first into a radiator and had stitches on my forehead. No one at the ER suggested to my parents that I get checked for vertebral subluxations. How, I wished someone did.

N. I plan on sticking to my nervous system enhancing routine. Stress never takes a day off. I shouldn't either.

--------------------------------------
So what have I done so far? I did my workout that morning, being careful. I don't want to back track the rest of the week, I am keeping up on my workout schedule. Exercising also brings fresh blood flow to the area and that helps with inflammation. I drank extra water. And I went to bed early. I will get adjusted in a few days. I got up today and did an even harder workout. I'm on the mend.

Nothing special. The routine that I've always carried out prevented this injury from being worse.

Be on the lookout for the Myth of the Month. I am starting C.O.R.E. Coaching to keep us on track. Good habits can be fun and will be diving in this new year!

See you at the table...the adjusting table.

Care is not Fair....So Beware

hnIt is illegal in every U.S. state for a medical doctor to recommend any vitamin, nutrient or food for the prevention or treatment of any disease. Doing so can cause a doctor to have his medical license permanently revoked.

Learn more from Mike Adams' article


What do you think about that? We've heard of local medical doctors who had their careers destroyed because other medical professionals turned them in for talking about natural means for health.

So, don't ask a medical doctor for nutrition advice. It's that simple.

So, how does Dr. Oz get away with it? He talks about "general health." Or does he? You be the judge.

A Story of Three Persecutions READ MORE HERE

The following is directly quoted from www.alternativecancer.us. I give them full recognition for this information.

In 1994 New York alternative healthcare advocates helped pass the Alternative Medical Practice Act designed to help guarantee that people would have access to alternative medical doctors by barring the State of New York from taking away the licenses of Alternative Medical Doctors just because they practiced alternative or non conventional medicine. Despite the passing of this legislation, the Medical Board bureaucrats who found a way to avoid the intent of the law. Alternative medical doctors were once again targeted and eliminated from medicine. Here are three examples:

■Dr. Jennifer Daniels (I briefly volunteered in her office to help her organize her records for her defense. She had files of testimonials praising her.)
■Dr. Rebecca Carley
■Dr. Serafina Corsello


Dr. Jennifer Daniels, MD of Syracuse was brought up on charges after successfully treating a patient with diabetes using only diet and exercise. In spite of a highly publicized study unveiled by the Secretary of Health & Human Services proving that diet and exercise was more effective than drug treatment. Eventually Dr. Daniels got her license back after it was suspended for two years, but the cost was devastating. The doctor was financially depleted and no medical employer was willing to hire her despite impeccable educational & medical credentials(Harvard BA, University of Pennsylvania MD). She is planning on leaving the country And that is a successful case.

Dr. Rebecca Carley, MD from Hicksville, Long Island successfully pioneered a treatment to reverse the injuries from vaccines such as autism and autism spectrum disorders, which have been growing. Dr. Carley has a public access cable TV show "What's Ailing America; Dr. Carley Responds" in which she was able to reach a larger audience warning of the potential dangers of vaccines and other political issues. Dr. Carley's license was suspended in July 2003. The suspension was solely on the basis of her "psychological impairment". This was an arbitrary attempt to control her speech, both medical and political. Dr. Carley's has been doing nutritional and lifestyle counseling, but is facing severe financial hardship.

Dr. Serafina Corsello, MD was one of the best known alternative practitioners. She was on the first advisory commission advising the Office of Alternative Medicine of the NIH in 1992. She published a book "The Ageless Woman", had two large medical centers one in midtown Manhattan and the other in Huntington, Long Island. She has and continues to lecture all over the country and in many parts of the world on nutrition and women's health. Charges were brought against her for too much testing, use of vitamin therapy, Chelation therapy and diagnosing lead toxicity. Unfortunately her lawyer filed the answer to the charges too late and the state deemed that she admitted to all the charges. Her medical license was revoked.


Write Not Practice

To avoid such prosecution, doctors who have realized that alternatives are better than pharmaceuticals, often write books or newsletters about alternative treatments. This allows these doctors do what they always wanted: help people conquer their health challenges and keep them safe. These doctors have realized that alternative treatments are easy enough for patients to self-administer as long as the patient is educated regarding possible side effects.
----------------------------------
Chiropractors are nutritional counselors under their New York State licenses. They recommend nutrition for health maintenance. Other health consultants also can provide nutritional counseling in NYS as long as they do not call themselves certified nutritionists or dieticians.

Thankfully, there are options for the consumer for safe, natural health care. It takes a personal commitment and you can't rely on insurance. Read here how unethical medical billing has pospered allowing a medical monopoly in the health care market place to block people from common sense health care.

If you read about Melinna Giannini's experience, you will see how insurance will pay $15,000 for care that does not work, but deny someone a $500 solution. There is nothing illegal about paying out of pocket for your own care, but robbing the public of their insurance premiums is another story.

Please continue to educate yourself on health care issues. It is important for each of us to look at the true successes and failures in health care. Don't always follow the crowd. We have dangerous social conditioning at work. Visit The Myth of the Month for more informaiton.

Remember, live fully today!

Health Care Reform? No Thanks.


If you like long waits at the medical doctor's office, don't read this.

We haven't gotten a handle on chronic health problems. If you have pain and fatigue and the doctors can't give you a definitive diagnosis, you should be worried. Are you on a number of medications that aren't working? You should ask, "How does this really restore my health?"

There is a condition we call Metabolic Syndrome associated with a sedentary lifestyle and obesity. We know the warning signs, but our preventive strategies are not working.
Do you have metabolic syndrome?Obese or overweight
High blood pressure
High cholesterol and triglycerides
Pre-diabetes or diabetes

John Gray: Why Women Need "Venus Work" Not "Mars Work"


John Gray is not just the best selling author of the Mars/Venus books, he is an expert on nutritional cleansing for mental health and relationships!

I recently received this article in one of my Isagenix newsletters: Best-selling author Dr. John Gray already shared the secrets to helping men and women communicate more clearly with his best-selling book series “Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus,” but he says there’s another piece of the puzzle when it comes to creating vibrant, healthy relationships — Nutritional Cleansing.

John, one of our Millionaires and 6-Star Golden Circle member with Isagenix, wasn’t looking to lose weight or inches when he said “yes” to “nutritional cleansing” in 2002. In fact, it was the combination of the amino acids and active enzymes found in our Shake that actually hooked him.

The Brain Matters
“I was researching amino acids at the time and found that they contribute to optimal brain function, which could make relationships better,” explains John. “As we are affected by impurities, we lose optimal brain function and are not able to deal with stress as well. The shake was far superior to any other product I had been testing on the market.”

Gaining Insight with a Weight Loss Side Effect
To his surprise, John lost 16 pounds* after using the products. He decided to take things to another level and get in touch with Master Formulator and Founder John Anderson to learn more about the products and even discuss creating the Mars Venus Wellness Solution™ with special ingredients to suit the needs of men and women. The pair added omega-3s to the Mars Venus Superfoods Shake™ for women for healthier hair, skin and nails and more protein to the men’s shake because men need more protein on a daily basis. They even added a daily cleanse drink, the Mars Venus Super Cleanse™ to give the body what it needs every day to help remove impurities from the body.

Since his discovery, John has shared “nutritional cleansing” with hundreds of people around the world. At first, he wasn’t interested in building a home business, but the opportunity created a residual income that has given him freedom to spend more time on research while producing additional Mars Venus books. Not to mention the fact that it’s also given him more time to vacation with his family in his favorite spot in Hawaii, the island of Maui.

Combat Stress Knowing Your Gender Traits
Now John is focusing his efforts on sharing how men and women cope differently with stress with his newest book “Why Mars and Venus Collide.” He enjoyed sharing more of the practical solutions for handling stress as the keynote speaker at 2009 “Living Your Dreams” Celebration in Anaheim, California in August and believes that “nutritional cleansing” is the answer to many of the stressors women especially experience.


“Women today are under a whole new level of stress because of activities in the work world. That message of you can do it all for many women has caused stress levels to increase and is putting them in constant urgency and emergency states. Those situations create testosterone and that hormone helps men cope with stress, but it doesn’t help women,” explains John. “Network marketing is actually one of the best businesses for women because it allows them the flexibility they need to take care of the home, children and other activities that have oxytocin benefits, the hormone that lowers stress.”

John says our company is especially good for women seeking the right network marketing opportunity because it’s all about nurturing and helping others improve their health, wealth and happiness, all oxytocin-producing activities. But ultimately, he says understanding how men and women function differently is important to know because it can lead to healthier relationships and an even healthier business.

“This a company of happy, healthy individuals and the quality of our relationships is important for our health,” shares John. “ Healthy relationships also translate into a more successful business because by understanding how men and women are different, you can identify each person’s unique needs when you share it with them.”

Why You Need a Big Butt!

Writer & Veterinarian: Bruce Thomson
I can't do this article justice. So please click on the link to read the entire explanation.

In order to prevent low back pain, repetitive strain, and pain in the extremities, the gluteus maximus must be engaged when we are in motion. This muscle tends to be under conditioned. Take a look at the author's pictures with the article to see how this muscle should be working.



When you can, do more bare foot walking so the body gets more efficient use of the lower extremity muscles.

Read how the author finds out by accident that this muscle is so important:

"I discovered the back protective effect of the Gluteus maximus by accident.
It happened like this. I was experimenting with Gluteus maximus contraction while standing on one leg. In order to make it a routine, I fitted the exercise in to my cooking routine (Dad makes the breakfast in our household). I was suffering from a "bad back", (pain upon lumbar flexion) at that time. The bad back was not my major problem, and I was intending to work on it later. After 2 months, the Gluteus maximus exercises had "fixed" the "bad back"! But don’t just take my word for it: Science has proven that back pain sufferers recruit their Gluteals much less than do healthy people."

The 3 Truths About You

You Don't Have ADHD - Call It Something Else

Pictured: Melanie R. Keveles
ADHD gets a lot of news play with its long list of symptoms, behaviors and theories. Basically it makes you feel bad about yourself and wreaks havoc on young children who just want to be loved and cherished.
I won't go into the list of ADHD findings because that moves us farther from my goal which is to forget about it and dive into life!

Chiropractic's objective is to reacquaint you with yourself. We have profound disconnections in mind and body that steer us away from our natural gifts.
Chiropractic touches us at the DNA level, so follow the DNA plan:
D - detox mind and body
N- nourish mind and body
A- adjust mind and body

Detox and nourish your health with nutrition. Chiropractors are well versed in this. Adjust the body with the neurological re-booting of the spinal adjustment.

Now on to the mind.
Detox yourself of negative thoughts. Nourish your mind with common sense guidance. And adjust your life activities so you are aligned with your values.

ADHD is a label used when someone is disorganized and unable to focus. I say, "hogwash." According to master life coach, Melanie R. Keveles, it is an indication of a "Renaissance Soul." It is time to take your Renaissance Soul out of hiding.


I invite you to immerse yourself in Melanie R. Keveles', self directed coaching sessions at LiveFullyToday.com. She will help you answer the life changing questions you need to ask yourself. The answers will probably make you uncomfortable, but then you will have a clearer idea how to break free from the ridiculous notions of ADHD.


When you go to LiveFullyToday.com, you will have to create a free profile and then click on the MAP link. Look for Ms. Keveles MAP titled: Fully Engaged at Any Age: Discover Your Dream in the Money & Career Category. Don't be fooled by the category. Ms. Keveles presentation of the material will help anyone who is feeling stuck. It will help you understand how to grow personally and professionally.
