If you don't you become a participant in what is known as "Healthcare." Healthcare is a system predicated upon the study of sick people and focusing on how to "fix" them. It addresses symptoms rather than causes and treats disease as an enemy to be eradicated. </font> <p> <b><font color="#990033">Self-Responsible Self Care</font></b><br> <font color="#000000"> If illness were a message concerning stressors in your mind and body, as opposed to thinking of illness as an opponent, how would you treat it? Likely you would cooperate with the body using principals based upon natural health. The first place you might start is at the beginning--when you are born and begin to breathe. Things work pretty well until you start storing stressors in your breathing muscles. Then you become a shallow breather, creating chronic tension that wears down your immune system. The result is that you don't feel as well as you could. </font> <p> <b><font color="#990033"> Holistic Practices</font></b><br> <font color="#000000"> The most basic holistic health practice is breathing. Because breathing is the foundation of health and all subsequent systems are effected by breathing. If it is harmonious, the entire system moves toward greater harmony. Master your breathing and you master the ability to stimulate your healing resources. </font> <p><font color="#000000">Use your breathing to promote the unimpeded flow of consciousness through every cell in your body. Healing takes place on all levels. Your breathing determines your physical vitality, your emotional calmness, your mental focus and your spiritual awareness.</font></p> <p><font color="#000000">Plan ahead: Now is a good time to make plans for next flu alert.

So the key to health is to treat the cause, not the effect. Simply, to detect, identify, correct and remove that which interferes with proper function and balance.</em></p> <p><em>Only when you eliminate the interference can you establish "ease" in the body. With balance restored and "dis-ease" eliminated, then and only then can you create an internal environment that supports not only getting rid of your symptoms and disease but also actually restoring health -- from the inside out</em>". <br> <font size="2"> - Ben Lerner, D.C., author of <a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/redirect?link_code=ur2&camp=1789&tag=tomadams&creative=9325&path=tg/detail/-/0785263179/qid=1128380348/sr=8-1/ref=pd_bbs_1?v=glance%26s=books%26n=507846">Body By God</a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=tomadams&l=ur2&o=1" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" /> : The Owner's Manual for Maximized Living </font></p> <p><em>"If we don't use supplementation, we are going to starve to death."</em> <br> <font size="2"> William Baroody, MD, author, <i>Alkalize or Die!</i>. </font></p> <p> <b><font color="#990033">Product of the Month: Whole Body Breathing</font></b> <li><font color="#000000">Build a lucrative, fulfilling business with training, certification and ongoing support. </font> <li><font color="#000000">Develop powerful coaching skills and use them for the benefit of everyone in your community. </font> <li>Align your passion to help children with your desire to support parents, grandparents and teachers. <p><strong>The Academy for Coaching Parents International now offers a complete program of instruction and mentoring. </strong> <a href="http://www.acpi.biz/"><strong>www.acpi.biz</strong></a> </p> <p><font color="#000000"><strong><font color="#990033">Did You Know?</font></strong> The most commonly prescribed medications today are statins. They are linked to fatigue, kidney failure, muscle breakdown, and death. Statins treat symptoms of heart disease thought to be caused by cholesterol levels above 200. The link between heart disease and cholesterol has not yet been established. The increased mortality for those with a high reading is 1% (one percent) greater than for those with &quot;normal&quot; or &quot;better&quot; readings.</font></p> <p><font color="#000000"><strong> <font color="#990033">Health: </font><br> </strong> The Simplest Workout You'll Ever Do - according to Dr. Al Sears.

Breathe slowly and deeply. Be aware of your abdomen - feeling it softly rise as you inhale and fall as you exhale. Keep your mouth closed, and draw the air into your body through the nostrils. Just breathe deeply into the abdomen, all the way down into your pelvis. Find the rhythm that is fluid, smooth, and relaxing for your body."
