I was going to post many links however after being once again on face book and seeing all the posts the factual ones and the “doom and gloom” we are all gonna die ones, everyone has read enough. So I will give you some information that is seriously lacking in all the other posts. While people are hoarding toilet paper, hand sanitizer, Clorox wipes etc., no one is visiting the vitamin aisle that would truly help their bodies fight this virus, I continue to ask “WHY?” We have 5 exits of releasing the toxins that affect us on a daily basis, each day. 1. Our liver    2.   Our kidneys    3. Our lungs    4.  Our intestines and 5. Our skin On any given day most humans have 1 -2 eliminating systems working. Since we have five...

Prior to leptin's discovery, fat was viewed as strictly an ugly energy storage depot that most everyone was trying to get rid of. After it was discovered that fat produced the hormone leptin (and it was subsequently revealed that fat produced other very significant hormones), the fat started to be viewed as an endocrine organ like your ovaries, pancreas, and pituitary, influencing the rest of your body and, in particular, your brain. Leptin, as far as science currently knows, is the most powerful regulator that tells your brain what to do about your life's two main biological goals: eating and reproduction. Your fat, by way of leptin, tells your brain whether you should be hungry, eat and make more fat; whether you should reproduce and make babies; or (partly by controlling insulin) whe...

World Health Organization director Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said Monday that the “stigma” surrounding coronavirus was “more dangerous” than the illness itself, and advised people to “calm down.” “Stigma, to be honest, is more dangerous than the virus itself. Fear and panic are dangerous,” he said, as reported by the San Diego Union-Tribune. “It’s fine to be concerned and worried, but let’s calm down and do the right things.” Officials were optimistic about the global effort to contain the spread of the illness: Of the 62 countries affected by COVID-19, 55 have fewer than 100 cases. Only four countries have more than 1,000 cases, Tedros said.WHO officials said it is rare to see a respiratory pathogen like this virus that can spread widely in the community but can also be containe...

In March, we spring forward. How did this practice of Daylight Saving Time (DST) begin? What Is Daylight Saving Time? Daylight Saving Time is the practice of changing the clocks forward one hour from stand time during the summer months and changing them back again in the fall. Then general idea is that this allows us all to make better use of natural daylight; however; DST has many detractors. NOTE: that it's called "Daylight Saving" (not "Savings"). OK, now that is out of the way. On March 8th, 2020 we will spring forward and set our clocks an hour ahead of time thus losing an hour of sleep.....I can already hear the moans and groans. We always do this on Saturday before going to bed.....usually!!!! So on November 1, 2020 we will officially fall back one hour. Except for...

Was there really a St. Patrick? Definitely. Did he really drive the snakes out of Ireland? Probably not, since snakes weren't native to Ireland. St. Patrick was born in Britain as Maewyn Succat. At age 16 (around AD400), he was kidnapped from his home on the west coast and carried off to Ireland to become a slave who worked as a shepherd. After six years, he escaped; upon returning home, he received his call (in a dream) to preach the Gospel. He spent the next 15 or so years in a monastery, preparing for his missionary work. When he became a priest, his name was changed to Patricius, and eventually, Patrick. Although some Christians lived in Ireland at the time, it was Patrick who spread Christianity throughout the land and brought an organized church into existence. Why do we wear a...

From the day we are born, using the APGAR scoring, (a method to determine if your newborn needs any extra help in breathing etc. APGAR stands for Appearance (skin color) Pulse (heart rate) Grimace response (reflexes) Activity (muscle tone) Respiration (breathing rate and effort), our life’s are determined by number. Following the APGAR scoring we move on to Social Security numbers, house numbers, license plates, driver’s license…..it’s all numbers. We have moved into 2020 and with that we also move into a different vibration based on the Global Year Number. Let’s take a quick look at what was going on in 2019. If you add the year up 2+0+1+9=12 which you will bring to a single number 1+2= 3. 3’s are all about expression with sensitivity…. and boy we had lots of expression with little or ...

In 2018 The Boston Herald reports: “The CDC report ... gives a range for the predicted increase -- from 1 in 3 to 1 in 5 [people] by 2050 -- to reflect differing assumptions about how many people will develop diabetes, and how long they will live after developing the disease. Diabetes also CAUSES other health conditions, including: Heart disease and strokeHigh blood pressureHigh cholesterolBlindnessKidney diseaseNervous system diseaseAmputationsDental diseasePregnancy complications Things you can do now! to help stop diabetes,  EXERCISE!!     Exercise builds muscle mass, muscles burn more glucose (sugar) than any other organ in the body. Even for 15-20 minutes a week will help.    Some Medicare plans offer a free (my favorite F word) to YMCA and planet...

“Whenever and however you give birth, your experience will impact your emotions, your mind, your body, and your spirit for the rest of your life.” – Ina May Gaskin The state of maternity care in the United States is upsetting. Obstetric intervention and cesarean sections have been steadily on the rise, leaving women with unpleasant birth experiences and creating the worst maternal outcomes out of 11 high-income countries. Besides needing to stand up to our healthcare system and Providers to demand better care, women need to take control of their birth experience by preparing for a natural childbirth.   Despite what society tells us, most women are inherently capable of birthing their babies naturally. It’s a beautiful gift for both your baby and you.  It allows you to have ...

I have personally had the pleasure of knowing Denise for several years. It didn't take long to become great friends. Many of you know as I have introduced Denise to some of you that she herself is an outstanding competitive dancer, winning awards for several years. She is not only beautiful on the outside she is also magnificently beautiful on the inside. I am so happy and proud that she has helped so many of my clients jump over those hurdles that show up in life and you know they are there however you just want them to either be gone or have the ability to understand their meanings. I have shared my experiences with Denise and her work several times with clients so let me just give a short overview. Several months ago we were asked to do a performance that involved Argent...
