A Mastery Newsletter Special series

If you are diagnosed with cancer, there are some strategies to retake control.

 

The diagnosis itself can be emotionally devastating.

 

Well meaning doctors may trigger a lot of fear.

 

Keep in mind that hope is a powerful force.

 

Doctors tend to not want to hold out what they see as “False Hope.”

 

But hope is what can keep us alive.

 

Find a way to stay hopeful.

 

Here are some ideas.

 

Expose yourself to those who have survived cancer. Some have survived Stage IV cancer. The one that is supposed to be terminal.

 

Two examples come to mind. You may find others by searching.

 

Ronnie Hawkins, the Canadian Rock and Roll icon, was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. He is still around after sessions with Adam Dreamhealer. He is now a Naturopathic Doctor in Vancouver, Dr. Adam McLeod.

 

Dr. McLeod also worked with Tommy Chong of Cheech and Chong fame. Chong credits his recovery from cancer to Dr. McLeod. http://www.dreamhealer.com/

 

Here is one woman who survived Stage IV pancreatic cancer: http://www.cancercenter.com/community/survivors/peggy-kessler/

 

Stay in Love. Release Fear.

100,000 Canadians May Have Had Their Information Stolen

 

234 Million Americans affected is the estimate

 

Here is How to Regain Control of Your Info

 

As of this writing there is no way to know if you were affected by this data theft from Equifax.

 

You may know that Equifax is a credit check company. They are one of the places your bank will go to find out your credit score when you apply for any credit. Mortgage, car loan, credit card, etc.

 

Reports say this could be the largest theft of Social Security numbers in the US ever. 324 million Americans affected. Canadian information is sketchy.

 

“There are 26 million people who have credit scores in Canada,” financial literacy and credit score expert, Chantal Chapman said.  “With the information that was taken, a person could fill out a mortgage application or buy a cellphone.  It’s pretty scary.” -Global News

 

Assume You Are Affected is the Safest Route

 

The safest route? Assume you may be affected and take action to protect yourself. It is an awful thing to have to get your affairs in order after some criminal gets a mortgage in your name. Best to be proactive. Here is what you need to know…and do.

 

Assume Your Info Has Been Stolen. This means your SIN, credit card numbers, birthday and all other information has been stolen. Global News report that Equifax said it will send direct mail notices to consumers whose credit card numbers or dispute documents with personal identifying information were impacted. Don’t wait for that. The report does NOT say anything about SIN numbers.

 

Here Are Some Steps You Can Take: (from several experts on Global News)

 

(1)  Monitor your Equifax credit score.  You should watch your credit score as soon as possible and keep an eye on it to make sure nothing suspicious is happening. There are a number of free credit monitoring services out there, like Mogo.  If you monitor your score monthly and then see your credit rating drop, it’s an indication something has happened.

 

(2)  Watch your credit inquiry.  Anytime someone checks credit it’s a hit on your credit score.  There can be a soft hit (when you check your own credit) and then there’s a hard hit (applying for a credit card).  You can order a credit inquiry through Equifax.

 

(3)  Freeze your credit reports.  You can freeze your Equifax account.  This restricts access to your credit report, which helps prevent other credit card companies from accessing it to open up new accounts.

 

(4)  If you know your SIN was stolen, file a police report.  A social insurance number is the Holy Grail of identity theft, according to finance magazine, Kiplinger.  You should file an identity theft police report and send a copy of it to Equifax.

 

(5)  Check your bank and credit card statements.  Keep a close eye on your credit statements for suspicious activity over the past several months.  Report any suspicious charges and cancel your compromised card for a new one.

 

(6)  Alert your bank(s) and strengthen your password.  Let your bank, or any other company overseeing another financial account, know about the breach.  You should also change your password with a two-factor authentication (password and confirmation via phone number)

Further, there is a class action lawsuit underway.

http://globalnews.ca/news/3735982/class-action-equifax-arbitration-clause/

 

Hope for the best. Plan for the worst. We are hoping none of us are affected. Best to be proactive.

 

Alert your family and friends. This may take years to unfold. Be safe.

Yes, you CAN actually buy happiness.

 

Research has shown helping others is a great way to feel joy.

 

So…this year for my birthday present, I ask you to contribute to the cause of providing access to water for those who don’t have it.

 

Did you know there are almost a billion people on our planet without access to clean water. This is a tragedy.

 

Charity:Water has already funded 24,537 water projects for 7 million people around the world. 900 + million to go.

 

Will you help? I have started my 2017 birthday campaign with $71 Canadian. That matches my number of years.

 

What would your life be like without a source of clean water? Perhaps like this: https://vimeo.com/1642714 

 

Once you’ve seen the video, you can go and read more about how You can make a BIG difference in this world.

 

 

Love and laughter,

 

 

Matti

P.S. Please DON’T send me greetings for my birthday…no cards, no presents, no money. The $5 you may spend on a card will go a LOT further to get clean water to some of the one billion souls who don’t have it.

Have you any digestion slowdowns? Bloating perhaps? Some grumbling?

 

A friend made some suggestions that have helped me.

 

First, I have taken Betain HCl for some time and found it helpful. The body produces it but apparently less and less as we grow older.

 

Next is digestive enzymes. Same story. After mid-40s, we seem to produce less. So this might help some.

 

Those were not enough to ward off some bloating. Here are the friend’s suggestions that made a big difference.

 

Gastro Relief from AOR. Ginger, zinc, Mastic gum and some Vitamin C. Taken with meals.

 

In between meals, AOR’s Mastica Gum. The label explains it as mastic gum, the resinous extract of the mastic tree grown on the island of Chios in Greece. The label goes on: “Research shows that it helps alleviate stomach pain and heartburn associated with functional dyspepsia and is traditionally used in Ayurveda for Adhmana (excessive gas formation in the stomach and intestines).

Having 3 stable relationships is a matter of life and death.

 

It is our biological imperative to know we belong.

 

People who are socially engaged have lower rates of dementia.

 

Women who have breast cancer are four times more likely to survive if they are socially engaged.

 

Yet one quarter of people say they have no one to talk to.

 

We need to change this.
