I'm thinking about one of my clients who kept breaking his legs, arms, wrist and more. His wife moved out, believing there was a ghost around. There were certainly a few things wrong with the energy in their house, and one of the culprits was such a simple thing [...]
With all the media outlets, newspapers, phones, tablets and more, it's easy to share opinions and ideas. Great when we can write or type them, because this gives us time to think about what we want to put across, and how best to present it. Speaking out, however, takes courage for many people [...]
The snack is often meal-sized, poor-quality junk food, occurring several times a day. That's not snacking. It's over-indulging in sub-standard stuff, and the result? Indigestion, weight gain, over-taxed liver, sleep problems (diet affects sleep quality) [...]
We don't do enough of this. We all seem to have gone wild in the world - rushing, meeting deadlines, working long hours, multi-tasking, desk-top eating, watching the clock... Oh for that holiday! The holiday will help, but it's not the solution [...]

Thousands of people refuse statins for cholesterol-lowering, even though these people are high risk for heart attack and stroke, said a journal recently. The reasons? The side effects! which include severe muscular pain, Diabetes 2, headaches, indigestion [...]
Dee has multiple sclerosis. Her specialist told her not to spend time in the sun, as it's bad for MS. Then the specialist went on holiday. The replacement specialist told Dee to spend lots of time in the sun because it's good for MS. Who was Dee going to believe? [...]
It's worth re-thinking those discounted packets of died-last-week herbs and brown-tinged, wilting salads, plus poly-wrapped veg. We may be grateful for ready-wrapped stuff when in a hurry, but after a couple of weeks of indulging in it [...]
When people used to visit their doctor years ago, they were almost bundled out of the room, with the prescription written before they had time to finish what they were saying. Later, when doctors started using computers, there was little eye contact [...]
