Image
"For many years, science has incorporated into medical practice the idea that psychology has a powerful impact on health. This is a remarkable idea!

Healthy, Constructive activity

Image
My Dad often said to me, when I was getting into some sort of mischief, that I needed something constructive to do. He always had good advice although what he was not aware of at the time was, that doing something constructive is even healthier for you, than counting calories.  The reasoning behind this is that when you are doing something constructive or positive, you are using your body in a healthy way and focused on something other than your body. We believe that what you use your body for is far more likely to affect your health, than what you eat. And those who are less anxious about what they eat, will learn to eat enough and when satisfied, stop eating. This is an easy and peaceful habit to learn.

One of the Very Best Healing Therapies

There is no better pursuit, that will add to add to your health and happiness, than learning all that it means to be a good and loving friend. It is the highest aspect of life learning. And should become the most enjoyable. Many religions have recognized this as one of the highest self-concepts worth developing. Of course, you do not have to be religious at all to become a good and loving friend. Science has recognized that developing a peaceful mind is beneficial to health. I do not know how many studies have been made on happier people and their state of health. I have seen when someone lets go of their fears, anger and guilt, resolving conflict in their mind, it has improved their health, including recovering from what was considered a terminal illness.  There is a relationship between your health and happier relationships. I reference some books on these ideas in the "Caduceus Solution, The Simple Secret to Lifelong Wellness."  You just might question every i...

Is a regular exercise regimen best for a healthy body?     Even long-held beliefs should be questioned from time to time, if you are struggling to stay healthy.   Last night, TV host, Jimmy Kimmel had actor, Jack Black, on his show.

He says he’s made peace with not losing weight and believes there are ways to be healthy and fat. In fact, he said, he’s got a book in the works.   With that attitude, Jack should stay healthier.   The short and powerful book, "The Caduceus Solution, The Simple Secret to Lifelong Wellness" takes a look at conventional die...
