Natural Immunity…..Public Health’s Forgotten Ally…

Uncategorized, Viable Options Blog

Researchers continue to grapple with questions over value of vaccines versus natural immunity. (Our greatest gift from our Creator besides our intuition is our immune system.

HealthCare.gov, the agency behind the Affordable Care Act, recently sent out an email announcing the “good news.” They said the new shot was “an important tool to help end the pandemic, and it’s your best protection from getting COVID-19.” But is it really the best? An alternative form of immune security hardly gets any attention, but it may have benefits that any one of the COVID shots now available under emergen...

Domestic Vibrations

Viable Options Blog

One of the most interesting and often requested applications of numerology is it's ability to describe the conditions and circumstances of domestic vibrations. Domestic vibrations are symbolized by house numbers. A home is a mini reality and the energy vibrations in and around that home are described by the numbers that make up its address. The house number is both reflective and directive. It reflects a set of circumstances which exist in your life durint your residence there. It also directs many situations that may arise during the same time.

Traditions are fun and I would like to share one with you. When my kids were small we would go out on Saturday before Easter and plant jelly beans and then the next day Easter morning they would run outside to find lollipops. Special decorated ones. It has been a favorite tradition till they grew out of it now I have the pleasure to watch them, even virtually, plant their jelly beans so carefully and then hear their squeals the next day when they find their special lollipops. If you have small ones, I will share my tradition with you, its alot of fun. Now for the rest of the fun facts...of April The term "April Fools" was probably meant as a deliberate stab at All Saints (November 1) and All Souls (November 2) Day.

What Your Body Requires To Fight A War and Then To Stay Healthy

Viable Options Blog

We really do not need any more doom and gloom predictions of any kind, however, we do need to know how to fight it if it comes knocking at our door. Our bodies have five (5) eliminating exits that must all be working well together to determine if we stay healthy and if we are able to fight the good fight. As a colon therapist for the past 30 years, I can honestly tell you most individuals have maybe 2 possibly 3 exits working. That leaves the other 2 working overtime and ready to wear out at any time. Let's go through the exits..... The Skin, this is your biggest eliminative organ. It eliminates toxins by sweating. It needs to be kept clean and the pores open for good elimination. If you are not pushing the toxins out via your pooh and or your pee, the skin will take on the ...

"We’re realizing our gut talks to our brain and it can have huge effects on our mood and the emotions we experience," he said. "If your gut is happy, then you’re going to be more happy.” In 2008, UCLA researchers reviewed 160 studies about how food affects the brain and determined that a balanced diet, along with exercise, can beat back mental disorders. "Quite literally - we are what we eat," notes Dr. Aarti Gupta, founder and clinical director of TherapyNest, a California center specializing in anxiety and family therapy.

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...
