Patients Tend to Become Panicky. Pt 2 of Head First Report. Mastery Newsletter. Aug 7, 2015

Your Thoughts and Your Attitude Can Have a Powerful Effect in Treating Minor and Major Disease: Part 2

 

  1. Patients have a tendency to become panicky. The physician’s ability to reassure the patient is a major factor in activating the body’s own healing system. Reassurance can help to optimize treatment.

 

Writing in Head First, the Biology of Hope, Norman Cousins outlines the results of his ten years of research at UCLA on the power of the individual to affect outcomes of disease conditions.

 

This is the second point in his conclusions as reported to Dean Kenneth I. Shine, MD.

A Great Wine for under $10. Matti’s Victoria Newsletter. August 7, 2015

Written by joyenergyandhealth on . Posted in Blogs

Neat stuff in Greater Victoria.

 

For all Wine Lovers: A Great Wine for under $10.

 

Impossible, you say?

 

This wine is reputed to be the house wine at the only seven star restaurant in the world. It is from Spain. Cook Street Village Voice indicated it was in the $12 range and only at private stores.

 

I went to the BCDLB store and sure enough, they did not have it on the shelves. It is only available by ordering a case of 12.

 

Masia F Tempranillo is the name and it comes in at $9.60 per bottle. Certainly on a par with my favourites: the Argentinian Malbecs that range from $12-15 and beyond.

 

Who knows how long it can stay at that price with the Cdn Dollar having slid from $.95 US to below $.75 now.

 

Check it out.

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

100% Chocolate, Made in Victoria: Sirene.

 

The owner, Taylor, is usually at Moss Street Market on Saturdays.

 

He has sourced the cacao from growers he knows in Ecuador, Madagascar and Guatemala.

 

Great taste in the 72%. If you have never tasted 100% chocolate, it is a rich experience. I have loved that, but up until now, it was only available from overseas. I sourced mine from the UK. Great to see a local supplier now.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

For Cheese Lovers

 

Ottavio Deli on Oak Bay Avenue has Swiss Emmental (my fave) at $2.95 for 100 grams. Great price.

Your Thoughts and Your Attitude Can Have a Powerful Effect in Treating Minor and Major Disease. Part 1. Mastery Newsletter. August 5, 2015.

Written by joyenergyandhealth on . Posted in Blogs, Joy, Energy and Health, Mastery Newsletter

             Dedicated to Health, Wealth and Fr~eedom

 

Your Thoughts and Your Attitude Can Have a Powerful Effect in Treating Minor and Major Disease. Part 1.

 

“Don’t Deny the Diagnosis. Try to Defy the Verdict.”

 

Author and Researcher Norman Cousins said that. He should know. He defied the odds in 1964 when he was diagnosed with Ankylosing Spondilytis. Many died from it as it is so painful that it prevents sleep in numbers of cases.

 

With the cooperation of his doctor, Cousins brought himself back to health. Laughter was only one of the many tools he brought to bear.

 

(Sidenote: Cousins book, Anatomy of an Illness as Experienced by the Patient, was the inspiration for Dr. Madan Kataria to found Laughter Yoga.)

 

Writing in Head First, the Biology of Hope, Cousins outlines the results of his ten years of research at UCLA on the power of the individual to affect outcomes of disease conditions.

 

Here are his conclusions in a report to Dean Kenneth I. Shine, MD.

 

“The human body is far more robust than people have been led to believe. Public education in health matters has tended to make people overestimate their weaknesses and underestimate their strengths. The result is that we are in danger of becoming a nation of weaklings and hypochondriacs.

 

Franz Ingelfinger’s estimate that 85 percent of all illnesses are self-limiting should serve as the cardinal fact in the reeducation of the American people, just as it should dictate a restrained method of treatment, especially with respect to medication.”

Are You a “Ticking Time Bomb?” Mastery Newsletter July 29 2015

Written by joyenergyandhealth on . Posted in Blogs, Joy, Energy and Health, Mastery Newsletter

Are You a “Ticking Time Bomb?”

 Are You “Rearranging the Deck Chairs on Your Own Titanic?”

  1. “Know thyself” said Socrates. That is our first job.
  2. Without our health, wealth means nothing.
  3. If we do the same as everyone else, will we not get the same result?
  4. What results are “everyone else” getting”
  5. One in three will have cancer
  6. Heart disease is the leading cause of death
  7. 29.1% of Americans have diabetes
  8. 69.0% of Americans are either overweight or obese,
  9. This opens them up to a host of other diseases.
  10. It is NOT our DNA, but how our DNA expresses itself.
  11. We can improve our odds…by study.

 

“Job One” for us is to know how we tick. That’s not me saying that. It was Socrates who told us: “Know thyself”

 

The world conspires to take our attention outside of ourselves. We are urged to spend our time, energy and money in studying subjects that can make us money. We are led to activities that “rearrange the furniture” in our lives.

 

What does it profit us to gain material wealth if we lose our health in the process?

 

If you do what everyone else does, are you not likely to get much the same results as everyone else?

 

Let’s see what results “everyone else” is getting.

 

Let’s see the stats on cancer, heart disease and diabetes. The three “Biggies.”

 

Cancer

 

The World Health Organization (WHO) tells us there were 14.1 million new cases of cancer in 2012 worldwide. They forecast that to rise to 22 million in two decades.

 

This is after billions spent in the “fight against cancer.”

 

100 years ago, one person in one hundred had cancer. That is expected to increase to one in three.

 

Like Playing Russian Roulette

 

Imagine a three barrel revolver. Put a bullet in one chamber, spin it and point it at your head.

 

A graphic image but is that not what we do when we do the same as everyone else?

 

If we do the same as everyone else, we will likely get the ________ results. Fill in the blank.

 

 

Heart Disease

 

It is the leading cause of death in the US, accounting for one quarter of all deaths.

 

The Center for Disease Control (CDC) tells us there are 720,000 heart attacks per year. This costs the US health system $108.9 billion a year.

 

In Canada, Statistics Canada says that in 2008, heart disease is responsible for 29% of all deaths, a total of 69,703. That translates to someone dying every 7 minutes.

 

If we do the same as everyone else, we will likely get the ________ results.

 

Diabetes

 

In 2012, 29.1% of Americans had it. A further 8.1% are undiagnosed diabetics. It is the seventh leading cause of death.

 

In Canada 4% of our population had it in the year 2000. By 2008, that had grown to 5%. Are we heading in the right direction?

 

Remember: If we do the same as everyone else, we will likely get the ________ results.

 

Obesity

 

According to the CDC, in the year 2011-2012, the percentage of adults over the age of 20 who had it? 35.1%. The percentage of overweight people is 69.0%.

 

Health Canada says the percentage of overweight or obese people has increased dramatically over the last 25 years.

 

Statistics Canada says that in 2004, 23.1% of Canadians were obese. That’s 5.5 million people out of a total population of 30 million.

 

Those who are obese have a greater risk of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, high blood pressure, gall bladder problems, osteoarthritis, some cancers, depression, lack of self-esteem and sleep apnea. That is according to Health Canada.

 

If we do the same as everyone else, we will likely get the ________ results.

 

 

Are you a “ticking time bomb?”

 

What can you do to get a different result from “everyone else?”

 

By the way, if you believe that there is nothing we can do, that it is all determined by our genes, I have news for you. Author Bruce Lipton destroyed that concept in his work The Biology of Belief.

 

The newly emerging field of psychoneuroimmunology has discovered that it is not what our DNA is, but how it expresses itself! And we have power over that expression.

 

Here’s how. Take Socrates words to heart and undertake the study of yourself. How do you tick? “Know thyself.”

 

Let’s take cancer as an example. Is there a way to reduce your odds from one in three?

 

Dr. Neil McKinney is a naturopathic doctor in Victoria, BC, Canada who specializes in cancer treatment. In fact, he has authored the book Naturopathic Oncology. An Encyclopedic Guide for Patients and Physicians.

 

Chapter 23 outlines a host of protocols you and I can implement to dramatically reduce the odds of first getting cancer and secondly, give us a far better chance of releasing cancer should we get it.

 

Do you believe that you may be worth $40 and a few hours of time to reduce the odds of cancer devastating your life?

 

My message to you? Undertake the study of how you tick. You will be richly rewarded.

 

You may not live any longer, but you may find a deeper satisfaction in life in taking more control of your health, your energy, your vitality and your “fun quotient.”

 

Get started today.

Conquering Fear. Mastery Newsletter. July 22, 2015

Written by joyenergyandhealth on . Posted in Blogs, Joy, Energy and Health, Mastery Newsletter

        Dedicated to Health, Wealth and Fr~eedom

Conquering Fear

 

  1. Fear is a natural state designed to protect us from harm
  2. Constant fear creates a state of chronic stress.
  3. Chronic stress shuts down our immune system and digestion.
  4. This ongoing stress can cause health issues, and
  5. Relationship issues.
  6. When in chronic stress, we literally have no choice but to look for negatives and ignore positives in our lives.
  7. Laughter, Smiling, Breathing and Posture help to release stress and bring us back to balance.

 

Fear is a survival mechanism that Nature or the Creator has supplied us with in order to escape or overcome life threatening situations.

 

When we are attacked, fear arises along with a host of hormones designed to give us the best chance of fighting back or running away in order to preserve ourselves from death or injury.

 

In the animal kingdom, when a gazelle runs from the leopard, all of its internal resources are focused on running.

 

When the gazelle escapes, it spends a couple of minutes trembling to release the “fight or flight” hormones and then goes about its business as if nothing had happened.

 

We humans, being so much more advanced and refined, don’t tend to do that. Instead, we hang on to that state of fight or flight.

 

This is what is meant by the term “chronic stress.” The stress hormones, such as cortisol, have a purpose. That purpose is survival.

 

When we do not release stress, our system is in continual fight or flight mode.

 

So what, you may say.

 

Here’s what. All other systems basically shut down. That means our immune system which is tasked with fighting off viruses, bacteria and other invaders, is not able to do its job well. Hence, colds and flus ensue.

 

Our digestion is shut down. There is no need to digest food when we are battling for our lives against a saber tooth tiger.

 

What good is it to eat nourishing food if the digestive process is shut down?

 

Chronic stress also impacts our relationships.

 

When we are in fight or flight mode, we scan the environment for threats to our lives.

 

Do you know any “negative” people? Those who are continually finding fault with others and everything in their lives?

 

Can you appreciate that they have no choice? Indeed, you and I have no choice either.

 

It is nature’s survival mechanism at work. When we perceive threat, as we must when in fight or flight mode, we have no choice but to look for threats (negatives) in our immediate environment.

 

Is it any wonder then that relationships suffer? Two partners who are “stressed out” are instinct driven to look for faults in the other. How does this serve the relationship?

 

So, it is critical to our physical health and our relationship health to release the stress hormones.

 

This is what conquering fear is all about: releasing stress.

 

How?

 

The answer may be different for each of us. Here is what I use and this is an ongoing process.

 

Laughter. A ten to fifteen minute laughter session floods the system with the “feel-good” hormones such as endorphins. Stress hormones are crowded out as they cannot co-exist in the body with endorphins. (This is simplified, but you get the idea.)

 

Smiling. What is called the “Duchesne” smile involves not just the mouth smiling, but also crinkling the edges of the eyes.

 

Breathing. Taking three long, slow, deep breaths and letting them out slowly often will calm the system down.

 

Posture. This is a study in and of itself, but basically, a we adopt a natural erect stance, we tend to open up the lungs, breathe easier and access a more relaxed yet powerful energy within ourselves.

 

There are many other ways. Exercise, meditation, visualization and a host of other systems also help to release stress.

 

My book The Zen of Joy has 24 protocols or simple practices that take only minutes a day and, over time, can create lasting relief from the stressors or everyday life.

What You Do Right Before Bed Determines How Productive and Focused You’ll Be Tomorrow. Mastery Newsletter. July 15, 2015

What You Do Right Before Bed Determines How Productive and Focused You’ll Be Tomorrow

Authored by Michael Hyatt

 

I have written and talked a lot about how the right morning routine can set you up for a productive day. The same is true for nighttime rituals. The right activities before you sleep can set you up for success the next day.

I used to have the worst time getting to sleep at night. I knew it was important for my health and productivity, but my mind raced long after the lights went out. I couldn’t seem to turn it off.

As a result, I woke up groggy, grumpy, and ill-prepared for the day. My energy flagged right after lunch, and my afternoons were a grind. I just wasn’t my best self. Maybe you can relate.

Eventually, my doctor suggested Ambien. I knew it wasn’t a good long-term solution, but I was desperate for sleep. What I really needed was an intentional nighttime ritual, but that wouldn’t come for several more years.

Today, I am happy to report that I sleep like a baby—without the help of Ambien or any other drug. I sleep soundly for seven to eight hours each night, wake rested, and have all the energy I need to be creative and productive.

These nine activities make up my nighttime ritual:

  1. Eliminate negative input. I’m a worrier by nature. To ensure I fall sleep easily, I avoid negative news, conversations, and anything else that strands my mind in Worst-Case-Scenario-Ville.
  2. Read something light. I save my serious reading for morning, but I like to let my mind wander through some pages in the evening. Nothing stressful or too involved. A tech magazine is usually perfect.
  3. Optimize the environment. Temperature and light can really affect my sleep patterns. I sleep best when it’s chilly and absolutely dark, so I turn the temp down a bit lower than during the day and make sure the blackout blinds are shut tight.
  4. Take the right supplements. Natural Calm and Kavinace Ultra PM finally allowed me to punch Ambien in the face. They flat work—at least for me. (Your mileage may vary.)
  5. Use essential oils. Several of my daughters are involved in dōTERRA essential oils. I use them topically to help set the stage for optimal relaxation and sleep. Vetiver, frankincense, and lavender are three of my favorites. After my supplements and oils, I’m nearly out.
  6. Listen to soothing music. Gail and I often listen to some mellow music before bed. It works like a cue: When the music begins, it signals my mind and body that it’s time to start getting ready for bed. We especially like the LifeScapes series. Here is our exact playlist from Amazon Digital Music. (This is the only retailer that still appears to carry this music.)
  1. Turn up the white noise. Most of the time I run a fan at night. If I can’t do that because of travel, I use an iPhone app called WhiteNoise. A gentle hum in the background keeps sharp noises at bay and lets me drift asleep and stay that way till morning.
  2. Stick with the same bedtime. One way to ensure I get enough sleep is to get to bed early enough each night. It’s tough because I’m always trying to get more done. But even during our recent launch for Platform University, I was in bed before 10 p.m.
  3. Pray. Once the lights are out, Gail and I lie in bed, hold hands, and pray. We express our gratitude and let go of anything that is weighing us down. It puts us both in a great state of mind for calm, restful sleep.

Without good sleep, I find myself unfocused, fatigued, less creative, less resilient, short-tempered, and unproductive. It’s a losing combination. But I can turn that all around if I faithfully follow my nighttime ritual.

“The nighttime is the right time to set yourself up for a productive day.” Michael Hyatt

Some of these nine activities may work for you; some of them may not. The important thing is to to see your routine as a work in process. Keep tweaking until you get it right. What gets you the best night’s sleep possible? That’s the question you have to answer.

If you do, you’ll probably discover you’re more rested, creative, energetic, and productive the next day.

Apricot Pits and Vitamin C “Absolutely Forbidden” Together. Mastery Newsletter. July 1, 2015

Written by joyenergyandhealth on . Posted in Blogs, Joy, Energy and Health, Mastery Newsletter

Apricot Pits and Vitamin C “Absolutely Forbidden” Together

 

Many of us, myself included, have taken a few apricot pits to help prevent cancer.

G. Edward Griffin’s work WORLD WITHOUT CANCER outlined how Dr. Kanematsu Sugiura at Sloan Kettering Institute found laetrile to inhibit tumor growth.

 

Griffin states that the cause of cancer is a lack of this nutrient. Prevention, therefore, is to ensure we get this nutrient in much the same way as Vitamin C prevents scurvy.

 

This still appears to be valid, but there is a new twist. New to me anyway.

 

This information comes from Victoria, Canada naturopath Dr. Neil McKinney’s work. In his encyclopedic work NATUROPATHIC ONCOLOGY, McKinney states that the Contreras Clinic in Tijuana, Mexico has used Laetrile for years.

 

It helps cancer cases, says McKinney but not noticeably better than orthodox oncology.

 

McKinney: “The historical record on laetrile has been polarized and distorted. I do not know who to believe. What little science there is has been lost in a cloud of propaganda. I have never used Laetrile, out of trepidation over its reported toxicity…However, many cancer patients today self-medicate with 4 to 5 apricot pits daily, and some claim results. This is probably the most toxic form of laetrile, and can trigger muscular weakness, respiratory distress, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, fever and toxaemia. Vitamin C increases cyanide absorption, so the combination of Vitamin C and Laetrile is absolutely forbidden.”

 

Not knowing this, I may have induced cyanide poisoning as I fairly regularly throw in 3 to 4 apricot pits into my smoothie, which often includes citrus fruits, a rich source of Vitamin C.

 

So, be aware. No Vitamin C at times when you are taking apricot pits or even apple seeds or peach pits as well.

 

Dr. McKinney’s book is available from his clinic http://vitalvictoria.ca/publications and has my highest recommendation.

 

The chapter on cancer prevention strategies is invaluable.

 

One in three are expected to get cancer. What is your strategy to deal with this epidemic and crisis?

 

You may find answers in this book.

Love, Laughter and Smiles.

Your Most Important Job is to Feel Good…No Matter What. Mastery Newsletter. June 17, 2015

Written by joyenergyandhealth on . Posted in Blogs, Joy, Energy and Health, Mastery Newsletter

Your Most Important Job is to Feel Good…No Matter What

Here is Why and How

 

From birth to about 6 years of age, our brain waves are predominantly slow waves. These are called Delta and Theta waves (Lipton 2008).

 

These slow waves are associated with hypnosis, a trance like state, with profound creativity and with sleep and dreaming (Fehmi & Robbins 2010, Wise 2002). *

 

Children Are Highly Impressionable

 

This is why, for young children, the line between reality and fantasy is blurred. Who has heard the thought that young children are highly impressionable? This is the reason.

 

What we learn in this phase of life continues to affect us as adults.

 

Traumatic life experiences at that age can be experienced as threats to survival. One example would be if mommy is angry and daddy is a raging alcoholic.

 

At this stage, the child is not able to tell that mommy and daddy are not going to kill him or her!

 

The body’s elegant survival system is kicked into high gear and the child hides from what it perceives as a life threatening situation. The fight or flight stress hormones run rampant.

 

Threats in Childhood are Remembered as Adults

 

That memory gets encoded in what is called the limbic system, otherwise known as the reptilian brain.

 

Now that person is an adult. When a boss or a spouse is yelling, the same fight or flight survival mechanism kicks in. “Ah hah, this sounds like mommy yelling, I better hide.”

 

This is all Unconscious

 

It is important to note and underline, this is all happening BELOW THE CONSCIOUS LEVEL. It makes no difference if we know all about it logically and in the rational mind. Our system’s first job is survival, to keep us safe. This is instinctual and operating below the conscious level.

 

In a real life threatening event, there is often no time to think things through. We have to survive and instincts kick in.

 

Causes us Misery in Adult Life

 

These survival mechanisms, which were critical to survival on the savannah 100,000 years ago, can cause great misery and grief to us today.

 

Solution: Find ways to feel good…no matter what.

 

Because when we feel good, the endorphins run the show.

 

Endorphins Crowd out Stress Hormones

 

The stress hormones CANNOT COEXIST IN THE BODY WITH THE FEEL GOOD HORMONES!

 

Feeling Good May be the Solution to Many of Our Life Challenges

 

Easier said than done, of course. But here are some ways.

 

Laughter, Smiling, Breathing and Posture (LSBP).

 

Laughter: When we laugh for at least 10-15 minutes, that process releases the endorphins. It does take that long. Laughing at a joke for 3-5 seconds doesn’t do it. That is why Laughter Yoga is so popular.

 

Smiling: When we smile, we feel good and, in that moment, endorphins run the show and we are relieved from the stress hormones.

 

Breathing: Deep and slow breathing does the same. Three deep breaths slow things down and we feel better.

 

Posture: Posture is an often overlooked technique and can fill a textbook. In fact, it does. Esther Gokhale spent a decade and a half studying societies where a natural posture was the norm and wrote a book on how we can regain our natural energy flow by emulating them. 8 STEPS TO A PAIN FREE BACK.

 

To explore these solutions, May I not-so-humbly suggest my book THE ZEN OF JOY, HOW TO REWIRE YOUR BRAIN FOR HAPPINESS AND SUCCESS.

 

This manual is designed to produce results in only minutes a day.

 

We are all leading busy lives. It is easy to put off even important things.

 

THE ZEN OF JOY is unique: you only need a few minutes a day to get results.

 

There are some free resources on my website as well. Check it out: http://zenofjoy.com/

 

 

Love, Laughter and Smiles,

 

 

Matti

Don’t Play Russian Roulette With Your Health and Your Life. Mastery Newsletter. June 10, 2015

Written by joyenergyandhealth on . Posted in Blogs, Joy, Energy and Health, Mastery Newsletter

Don’t Play Russian Roulette With Your Health and Your Life

Try making money when your health is devastated by dis-ease.

Try enjoying life when you are diagnosed with a life-threatening illness.

All the money in the world means nothing…without health.

Having energy and vitality is a base-line requirement to being able to fully participate in life and truly to “suck the marrow out of the bone” as it were.

So, it is a puzzle why everyone is not making it their number one job to study health and vitality.

The “default setting” for many seems to be: “I will let my doctor worry about it.”

Why does that not work?

  • Doctors, bless their souls, are faced with an impossible task. Here is my jurisdiction, they are only given 15 minutes to see a patient. Anything over that and they are working for free.
  • Their “Modus Operandus” seems to be: Wait until symptoms show up, then address those symptoms, usually with drugs, surgery or some other dramatic response.
  • Often times, the prescription carries “side effects.” All you have to do is tune into American TV and see the ads for prescription drugs to hear of the many side effects, some quite serious, even possible death is sometimes listed. (Those ads are banned in Canada.)
  • There is little time for doctors to give proactive prevention suggestions, even when they are trained for it. Only a small fraction of their education hours is given to nutrition, as an example.
  • The medical system’s track record for solving modern maladies leaves something to be desired. Cancer, heart disease, diabetes are all on the rise. One in three is expected to get some form of cancer in their lives. Imagine playing Russian Roulette with your life and cancer. Here, have this pistol. It has three chambers. I have put a bullet in one of those chambers. Now, roll the chamber, cock the trigger, place the gun against your head and pull the trigger. In effect, this is what you are doing by relying on the medical system as it stands.

The system’s track record for heart health and diabetes is not much better.

No one cares as much about your health as you do.

It us up to each of us to take care of our bodies as well as our minds, emotions and yes, our spiritual selves.

“Health is the True Wealth.” –Mahatma Ghandi

Childlike Playfulness as Healer and “Deprogrammer”. Mastery Newsletter. June 3, 2015

Written by joyenergyandhealth on . Posted in Blogs, Joy, Energy and Health, Mastery Newsletter

Childlike Playfulness as Healer and “Deprogrammer”

“Creativity is not the possession of some special talent. It’s about the willingness to play.” — John Cleese

This willingness to play may be our saviour.

In Laughter Yoga, we make pretend we are children and chant “Very good, very good, yay!”

It seems and is silly, but it connects us with our creativity.

It is this willingness to play that opens up not only our creativity, but also our freedom.

Here’s how.

We get messages daily from the media that the world is a dangerous place. The “powers that be” have a vested interest in keeping us connected to fear.

If we fear terrorism, they can create laws that supposedly protect us, but in fact, take away human rights.

If we fear dis-ease, they can sell us drugs.

Fear is a useful emotion. In case of life and death situations, it can guide us away from danger.

If we have constant fear, however, we restrict our creativity and our healing powers.

When we hold on to emotions rather than allowing them to flow through us, we get stuck physically as well. Muscles tighten. Blood flow and nerve flow and energy flow are restricted.

Childlike playfulness can help to release fears (and traumas).

Children wear their emotions on their sleeves. Adults, not so much. We are taught (manipulated?) to “suck it up” and not be childish.

By allowing emotions to flow, being silly, seeing the humour in situations, we activate joy.

In this joyful state, we are more likely to have the “feel good” hormones flowing and not have the stress hormones in play.

The feel good hormones allows our immune systems and endocrine and digestive systems operating more optimally.

The stress hormones basically shut down all other systems besides the survival “fight or flight” system.

By playing more, we gain joy and help to release not only trauma, but fear also.
Love and Laughter, Smiles and Fun,

 

Matti

Mind Release: Stress Relief. Mastery Newsletter. May 27, 2015

Written by joyenergyandhealth on . Posted in Blogs, Joy, Energy and Health, Mastery Newsletter

Mind Release: Stress Relief

 

When we humans have the stress hormones operating (cortisol as an example), we have no choice but to scan the environment for danger.

 

It is a built-in survival function.

 

When a gazelle is chased by a leopard, all other bodily systems take a back seat to survival. The fight or flight system kicks in. This means all resources are focused on meeting the physical challenge head-on or fleeing to save its life.

 

When the danger is over, the gazelle (and other animals) shake off the stress hormones and continue on.

 

Humans have somehow lost that ability.

 

Now, we have a society with a continuous release of stress hormones all the time. Many of us don’t even remember what it is like to be fully and truly relaxed.

 

And because those around us are also in the same fight or flight mode, we don’t see how big a problem it is.

 

This is what is referred to as “chronic” stress.

 

It means that all other systems are operating sub-par, not efficiently. The digestive system as an example. How can we expect to have good digestion if our bodies are in fight or flight mode?

 

Rhetorical question: of course we do not digest well and can’t expect it if the stress hormones are running rampant in the body.

 

Can we see how critical stress release is for our health? How can we expect good health if we are not fully digesting our food?

 

Further, this mode of operation, always being in “fight or flight” where we have no choice but to scan the environment for threats, can threaten our most precious relationships.

 

Our partner says something. Being in stress mode, our survival mechanism listens for a threat and often times finds it where none exists.

 

We respond “defensively.” Off we go to a conflict where none actually existed….except in our minds.

 

Solution?

Now, when my partner (or anyone) says anything that triggers a thought that seems negative, I ask myself if my responsive thought is because of me being in fight or flight mode, without even realizing it?

 

I make the assumption that my mind is in that mode, smile, relax, maybe chant the Ho’Oponopono chant and release my response.

 

Some may call it bringing “mindfulness” to the situation.

 

I prefer to think of it as “Mind Release.”

 

It is an ongoing challenge and I am more successful at times and not so much at other times.

 

Try out “Mind Release” the next time you find yourself reacting to a statement from your partner…or anyone.

 

Let me know how it goes.

 

 

Love, Laughter, Smiles,

 

 

Matti

 

P.S. Ho’Oponopono chant: “I’m sorry, please forgive me, thank you, I love you.”

The Root Cause of Dis-ease. Mastery Newsletter. May 20, 2015

Written by joyenergyandhealth on . Posted in Blogs, Joy, Energy and Health, Mastery Newsletter

Special Report from Matti Anttila

 

There is only one dis-ease. All conditions from cancer to the common cold have and everything in between have, at their root, four causal conditions. And we all have all four operating in our lives in the modern, 21st Century world.

 

  • Not getting the nutrition the body needs in the proper proportion delivered to the inside of our cells. Note the words “proper proportion.” This is a challenge in the modern world as much of modern food is deficient in nutrients. Knowing this or sensing this, many are using supplements to fill the gap. This may not be ideal. Part of the reason for the worldwide obesity epidemic is that we in the affluent western world are getting lots of food into our mouths while being starved on the cellular level. The body craves the nutrition, so we stuff more “food” into our mouths that is not being delivered to our cells.

 

  • Build-up of toxins in our bodies. In the 1950s, there were only a handful of chemical additives in our food. Now, there are over 50,000 (probably a lot more, I have lost track). Herbalist Dr. Terry Willard tells us the average North American is taking in 10% of their bodyweight in pure chemicals annually. We are not designed for this, nor is our DNA capable of adjusting to such an onslaught in such a short time. “Paleolithic diet” researchers tell us our bodies have not yet adjusted to the agricultural revolution which is 10,000 years old. It is not rocket science to say that our bodies would find it difficult (the height of understatement) to adjust from zero chemical food additives to over 50,000 in a half century.

 

  • The challenge with this point is to prevent ourselves from rolling our eyes as we hear this old chestnut once again. We have all been told that stress negatively affect us. “Yeah, yeah. Tell me something I don’t know.” Let’s see if we can revisit this with fresh eyes.

 

When we are faced with a life threatening situation, our bodies’ survival mechanisms kick into gear. The body is flooded with hormones and chemicals with one purpose and one purpose only: to survive. Adrenalin and cortisol are amongst those hormones. These are sometimes called the “fight or flight” hormones as their purpose is to neutralize the danger by overcoming it through battle or by fleeing the situation. When the danger is over, there is no more need for those chemicals. Indeed, when a gazelle gets away from a leopard, the gazelle spends about two minutes trembling to release those chemicals and then carries on as if nothing had happened. Humans, not so much. We tend to hang on and keep the fight or flight hormone production up. Therefore, we are chronically stressed.

 

It is important to note that all other systems in the body basically shut down. For example the digestive system. So, no matter how great the diet, if the digestive system is shut down because we are in a continual fight or flight mode, what chance for the body to deliver nutrients to the inside of the cell and nourish the system? Slim and none, right?

By holding on to the fight or flight mode, our bodies stay in continual trauma. Low grade trauma, it can be argued and not like soldiers returning from an actual battle zone, but trauma nonetheless. If we don’t release one trauma, then the next one layers on top of the previous one. Over a lifetime of being in continual cellular level stress and adding more and more layers to the “trauma onion” we impair the body’s natural healing capacity.

 

As a sidebar, this may be a major cause of the high divorce rate. When we are in fight of flight mode, we continuously scan the environment for danger. That is, we are looking for the negatives. Instead of seeing the wonderful qualities of our partners, we have no choice but to see their negatives. No choice as survival is the most basic function of living things, including humans. Until and unless we release the stress (notice I said “release” rather than “overcome.” “Overcome” is a word that we would use to do battle against the stress. That perception itself comes from being in the fight of flight mode.)

 

Another challenge with this is that all around us in the modern world, others are continually stressed, i.e. in fight or flight mode. So it seems the natural order of things. NOTHING COULD BE FURTHER FROM THE TRUTH! It may be normal or what the average person experiences, but it is decidedly NOT natural. Refer back to the gazelle trembling to release stress hormones when the danger is over. THAT is natural, NOT what we humans do. Solutions in a few moments.

 

  • Electromagnetic Chaos. In the 1950s, CKWX radio was one of 7 radio stations in my city, Vancouver. They were the first to go from 10,000 watts to, at that time, an astounding 50,000 watts. The big news at the time was how that increase in power meant that some people were hearing the radio station through the fillings in their teeth and some just by sitting in their bathtubs!

 

Think how much more electrical and electronic “juice” is now circulating in the air. Not only many more radio stations, all the AM ones now at the 50,000 watt level, FM stations, 100,000 watts. Microwave towers, cell phone towers, even simple electricity has “juice” that spills out beyond the wires.

 

Do you think all this extra electrical activity has zero effect on our systems?

 

 

Solutions

 

Clearly identify the problem and you are 90% of the way to the solution.

 

Can’t remember where I first came across that phrase, but it resonates with me and makes sense.

 

If the above four causes are accurate, then we can start to unravel the solutions to all dis-ease and not just isolate any one condition or group of conditions. We can actually begin to unravel any condition. That is my opinion at any rate.

 

Caveats:

 

  • It can be argued that there are other causal factors. a) Emotional: Louise Hay has written on how our emotions can affect our bodies. If so, and I do believe Louise, where can “negative” emotions come from? First, is there such a thing as a negative emotion? Perhaps it is not the emotion itself, but the fact that we humans tend to hold on to them rather than letting them pass through our systems. Just like we humans hold on to the fight or flight mode while animals release them and carry on as if nothing had happened, do we also hang on to emotions?

 

  1. b) Spiritual: Do we choose prior to birth to experience some illnesses to “work out karma?” This is beyond the scope of this article. See “Your Soul’s Plan” if you would like to explore this area.

 

  • Taking personal responsibility. If we accept the idea of four causative factors for dis-ease, it appears then we have little choice but to take over the task of healing ourselves, rather than turning it over to the medical system. This means changing our modus operandus. We have been taught/programmed from an early age to operate like this: Wait until there is a problem, take that problem into a higher authority to fix it for us. In this case, our doctors and the medical system.

 

The good news is we can address the four causative factors ourselves.

 

How to Address all Four Causative Factors

 

#1: Flood the cells with nutrients.

 

There is no end to the number of books, manuals, theories and systems of nutrition. How can I possibly make sense of them? There are so many that contradict each other.

 

Let us use a simple concept to cut through the clutter. That concept is results over time.

 

The Cleveland dentist Weston A. Price traveled the world looking for societies with perfect teeth. He found 14 of them. These societies not only had perfect teeth (.0001 cavities per thousand people, in that order of magnitude) but also had vibrant health and were still working as hard as ever in their 90s and even past age 100.

 

Motivational author and speaker Tony Robbins puts it this way: If you want to be successful at anything, find someone doing it and model them! Do what they are doing and you should get similar results.

 

Building on that concept, you can get Price’s book NUTRITION AND PHYSICAL DEGENERATION. I argue that it is the most important health book of the 20th Century.

 

If you are in a more critical situation, then there are two more recent and powerful books to get a system working for you right away. They are:

 

THE WAHLS PROTOCOL by Dr. Terry Wahls. A medical doctor, she had Multiple Sclerosis that was so pronounced she had to have a reclining wheelchair as the pain was too much for her to sit in a regular chair. She now bicycles! Talk about results.

 

She has three different levels to her protocol to flood the cells with nutrients.

 

The other is PERFECT HEALTH DIET by Paul Jaminet and his wife Shou-Ching Jaminet, both Ph.Ds. In fact, Paul Jaminet is an astrophysicist. That is the closest to rocket scientist I have seen who writes about health. They had very disturbing health problems in their forties, and being the scientists they are, they did their research and found cures.

 

They then said, what would we, as scientists, need to see in a well-researched and documented health book for us to believe it. They then wrote that book, complete with every point backed up by scientific research.

 

Either of these books can give a complete system to address causative factor #1.

 

 

#2. Rid the body of toxins. This may be a lot easier to do than we might think. A recent study in Sweden found that a family who went totally organic showed that most of accumulated pesticides in their bodies disappeared in 2 weeks. https://www.yahoo.com/health/this-is-how-eating-organic-affects-the-pesticide-118942216062.html

 

Further, The Wahls Protocol lines up with Paleolithic Diet ideas that if we fast for 16 hours a day, we can dramatically flush toxins from the body. That involves eating in an 8 hour window from 11am to 7pm. Finish eating by 7pm and don’t break your fast until 11am. That apparently helps the body to cleanse itself with no need to go on expensive cleanses from the health food store.

 

#3. Release/reduce stress. There are many stress reduction and release techniques. Meditation, laughter, smiling, playing, dancing, singing, helping others. The list is long. It does take doing it and making a commitment.

 

I use Laughter Yoga daily. Details: https://victorialaughteryogaclub.wordpress.com/

 

THE ZEN OF JOY is a book I wrote about how to access our authentic joy. http://zenofjoy.com/. It has 24 protocols that take only minutes a day to lift stress, feel joy and therefore enhance our immune function and our health.

 

Note that stress release is not an option. Flooding the body with nutrients will do little if the digestive system is shut down because fight or flight hormones are ruling the roost.

 

Stress release is critical. Don’t overlook it.

 

#4: Get grounded.

 

EARTHING is a book by Clinton Ober, Dr. Stephen Sinatra and Morton Zucker. It is based on the discovery that connecting to the Earth’s natural energy is foundational for vibrant health. The idea is getting your bare feet on to the earth. There are also mats to buy to put on your mattress to sleep while grounded. http://www.earthing.com/

 

 

Notes

 

We are faced with a system that is becoming overloaded. As I write this, I read in this morning’s news about a 71 year old man with an aggressive cancerous growth on his neck. The local British Columbia medical system had an 8 week wait for him to see his oncologist. His Korean born wife arranged for him to fly to South Korea where the tumour was surgically removed. He and the Korean surgeon both agree he would likely have died if he had to wait for surgery in BC. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/gerd-trubenbach-says-flying-to-korea-for-cancer-surgery-was-his-only-hope-1.3079619?cmp=rss

 

 

Health systems are being overwhelmed. All the more reason to begin to take charge of and responsibility for our own health.

 

Thanks for Kevin Trudeau for the idea.

Your mother was right when she said: “Sit up straight!” Zen of Joy book excerpt. May 15, 2015

Written by joyenergyandhealth on . Posted in Blogs, Joy, Energy and Health

           Your mother was right when she said: “Sit up straight!”

 

(Chapter 8 from The Zen of Joy http://zenofjoy.com/)

 

First of all, it is actually easier to have good posture than poor posture. If you have been used to slouching, that may be hard to believe at first. Let’s think it through for a moment. Your head weighs how much? I am told about 25 pounds or just over 11 kilograms.

 

 

 

As an exercise, find something that weighs 25 pounds. If you have a 25-pound dumbbell, that will work. Otherwise, we can choose a briefcase and fill it with books. Be sure to weigh it on a scale to approximate 25 pounds. Even a large purse can be filled with 25 pounds of stuff.  Now, carry that around for an hour and notice what goes on in your body. You may find yourself changing the weight from one hand to the other, or even using two hands to carry it.  Then, imagine carrying that around for 16 hours. That’s what you are doing when you slouch. The head slouching forward means the muscles in your neck and upper back have to support the weight.

 

 

 

Alternatively, if you position your head so it is directly above the trunk of your body, your neck and upper back muscles don’t have to work as hard. Is this making sense?  Somehow, many of us have become “slouches” when it comes to posture. The subconscious belief may be that it is just easier to do that rather than try to be a soldier. Perhaps it is if we consider that a soldier may be required to tense all the muscles in the body to achieve a “military” posture or stance.

 

 

 

This is not about tensing. Rather, this is about positioning and then releasing those muscles or portions of muscles that are no longer required to keep the head from falling to the floor. (You may notice that some of these protocols start to blend into each other. Protocol #8, Posture, uses the same procedure as #2, Lifting Money Worries.)

 

 

 

Let’s do this:

 

 

 

Stand comfortably, feet about shoulder distance apart.  Imagine a silk cord at the top and back of your head, pulling your head up. This allows your spine to lengthen easily, effortlessly. It pulls your chin in a little as the silk cord gently eases the spine. Imagine the vertebrae being like pearls on a string, suspended by this silk cord.

 

Notice any tensions in the neck, upper back, lower back.  Allow those tensions to ease.  Rock gently back and forth, finding the spot where you are most centred, where you are using the least amount of muscle strength to hold yourself in place.  Do the same rocking, this time side to side, again finding the spot where you are using the least amount of muscle to hold yourself up.  Breathe gently.

 

Now, let’s practice how to keep this relaxed posture while walking.  Stay focused in the present moment by paying attention to the posture or stance and your breathing at the same time.  Stay totally relaxed or as relaxed as you can.  Imagine your right foot moving forward one step and your left following it.  Continuing to breathe and smile, gently allow your right foot to follow your imagination and allow your left foot to follow.  As you do so, feel your connection to the earth.  You may choose to continue for a few steps.

 

Notice how this feels.  The next time you are outside, you can choose to walk with this posture/stance and with this visualization of energy preceding your steps and of being connected to the earth as you walk.

 

 

 

Here are some other tips for posture: How to Create Good Posture

 

 

  1. As with anything else, we need good reasons to change long term entrenched habits. So, either a) copy and paste the 7 reasons for good posture (listed below) into a Word document, print them out and put them up where you can see them whenever and wherever you are sitting, or b) write “POSTURE!” on some post-it notes and stick them up.
  2. Pretend your body is held by a string. This is a tai-chi and martial arts technique and it works like a charm. Pretend that at the top back of your head, there is a titanium cord pulling the spine up. Notice as you do this, that your head naturally rises and your chin comes in a little bit. At the same time, focus on relaxing all your other muscles, especially the neck and surrounding muscles that may be chronically tight from constantly holding the head up. Give them time. This is a lifetime habit being changed, so be easy on them. Over time, you may find those muscles relaxing as they get the message that they no longer need to hold up this 25 pound weight.
  3. Get a head, shoulder and back massage.If you have always been in a bad posture, you will find that it’s hard to change your posture due to the hardening of your joints. A massage can loosen up those joints, which can make it easier to get into a better posture afterward.
  4. Eliminate bad habits that cultivate bad postures. This includes watching TV or reading while lying down, sleeping on your stomach and working under dim light, which results in slouching.
  5. Get a good quality chair, one that has good back support, including supporting the shoulders.
  6. Place your behind at the innermost edge of the chair. This helps set the right base for your posture. Many people have bad postures because they place their bottoms on the middle or towards the end of the chair. This causes them to lean forward or slouch forward and hunch since there is no support behind their backs to press against.
  7. Get a back cushion. (Optional) Put it at the back of your chair. Whenever you sit, make sure your back is wedging the cushion against the chair. Whenever you lean forward, the cushion will fall down which will act as a reminder to shift back into your proper posture.
  8. Ground both your feet when standing or sitting. This means having both feet planted flat on the floor and not resting your weight on a particular foot which is a very common habit. While sitting, try not to cross your legs. This helps to keep the upper part of our body straight.
  9. Invest in a good bed and pillow. Get a mattress that is firm and not too soft. The soft mattresses, that you sink into, may feel nice and comfy initially, but are not good for your back and posture. For your pillow, consider investing in an orthopedic pillow. The most common is contour pillows which are pillows that arch and support your head.
  10.  Avoid carrying heavy items. The simpl act of carrying heavy items is bad for the shoulders and back. Over time, it can gradually lead to hunched shoulders and backs. If it’s not possible to reduce the load of things you carry around, you can consider getting a trolley bag or roller bag—these are really convenient and are becoming commonplace.
  11.  Re exercise: the usual advice here is to work on strengthening the back muscles. The reality is your back muscles are probably already too strong! This was outlined in Mademoiselle Bertherat’s wonderful little book The Body Has Its Reasons. The suggestion instead is to work on releasing the chronic tension most of us carry in the back muscles just as we do in the neck muscles. Yoga, Tai Chi and Somatics are all forms I have tried and can recommend. Good instruction is vital, so seek out someone who feels right for you. Tip # 19 has more detail on exercise.
  12.  If you have a history of back pain and/or back injuries, it may be wise to get a professional assessment with a trusted chiropractor or physical therapist.
  13. Take regular breaks when sitting. I have a music CD loaded in my computer. When it stops playing, I stop, get up and get a drink of water or a snack.
  14. Take a long-term view. You are changing life-long habits. Be easy on yourself. Don’t expect miracles overnight. You may, however, see a miracle over time in more joy, energy and health. Especially if you combine good posture with laughing, smiling and breathing. (LSPB!)

 

 

 

7 reasons for focusing on good posture are:

 

 

  1. It helps you to breathe deeper and better.
  2. It Increases your concentration and thinking. More air, more oxygen. More oxygen, more brain food. More brain food leads to higher quality thoughts and ideas.
  3. It helps to keep back pains away. Bad posture, over time, can contribute to risk of slipped disc, back aches, back pain, pressure inside your chest and poor blood circulation.
  4. You experience less fatigue and less stress. Think about it. Your head weighs about 25 pounds, more or less. If your head is not in its proper place resting easily directly above your body, then your muscles have to support it. Why do you think people get sore neck muscles? Because those neck muscles are supporting a head that is tilted forward, not sitting where it was designed to sit and has to be supported by neck muscles. Constant tension means constant stress. (And you have already heard or read about stress being rated as the number one killer.)
  5. It supports the best possible muscle performance. Because of optimal biomechanics.
  6. It creates optimal organ function.Good posture ensures your organs are aligned how they were designed and that can lead to them working more harmoniously together.
  7. It improves your image.People with good posture look smarter and more attractive. Have you ever seen someone with a bad posture and felt the person seemed unkempt, even though the person has not said or done anything yet? On the flip side, someone with a good posture naturally exudes an aura of assertiveness and appeal.

Posture: Far More Critical Than I Ever Realized. Mastery Newsletter. May 13, 2015

8 Steps to a Pain Free Back

This book came highly recommended. I started reading and based on the first chapters and some photos, already my posture has improved.

 

And I haven’t even started the exercises.

 

It comes highly recommended from a top London Osteopath.

 

My days are more fun because of it. They also flow a lot easier now. Hard to fathom that just paying attention to posture throughout the day would have that effect.

 

See what you think.

Superb Olive Oil at an Economical Price in Victoria. Matti’s Victoria Newsletter. May 7, 2015

Written by joyenergyandhealth on . Posted in Blogs, Joy, Energy and Health

Neat stuff in Greater Victoria.

 

Superb Olive Oil at an Economical Price in Victoria

 

Many of us have been using olive oil for its many health benefits.

 

Turns out we may not be getting ANY of its benefits because of the scams many producers are involved in.

 

For details, please read my Special Report on Olive Oil:

 

Your “Olive Oil” May Be Poisoning You…

 

Most “Extra Virgin” Olive Oil is Not Even Olive Oil

 

You buy “extra virgin” olive oil because you believe it’s healthy.

 

69% of the time, you could be buying something else.

 

Something that is “rancid, fusty and musty.”

 

Something that could be mostly soybean oil or peanut oil or canola oil or sunflower oil or any of a number of other cheaper oils.

 

In the well researched book Extra Virginity, The Sublime and Scandalous World of Olive Oil, author Tom Mueller points out that 69% of olive oil that is labeled “extra virgin” is not olive oil at all.

Continue reading: http://joyenergyandhealth.com/2014/03/05/your-olive-oil-may-be-poisoning-you-mastery-newsletter-march-5-2014/

 

 

The Good News: Superb Olive Oil at an Economical Price.

 

Health Essentials at 300 Gorge Road West, just at Tillicum, has a great olive oil: Phileos. It is from a local Greek contact who have family in Greece. It has the qualities that Tom Mueller expounds on in his book.

 

It has the production date as well.

 

If memory serves, I paid $13.99 for a whole litre.

 

To get the same quality, other brands are selling at $31.99 for a half litre!

Energy Psychology conference posted by Leonard Thornton:

 

We are fortunate to have the Annual Energy Psychology conference here in Victoria from Oct 1-5

http://www.epccanada.ca/#arvlbdata

Early bird pricing for individuals and groups is available until the end of May.

 

I personally have used EFT and other forms of Energy Psychology for many years ( http://www.eftandmorelive.com) and look forward to participating.

 

More than two dozen published, peer-reviewed, randomized clinical trials show that Energy Psychology interventions are unusually powerful and rapid for a range of conditions.

 

Clinical evidence and preliminary research suggest that combining “energy” interventions, such as tapping on acupuncture points, with cognitive and other therapeutic approaches is potent. The technique shifts the neural pathways that underlie targeted psychological problems with greater speed and precision than psychological interventions alone.

67 Ways to kill Your Family with Sugar. Mastery Newsletter. May 6, 2015

Written by joyenergyandhealth on . Posted in Blogs, Joy, Energy and Health, Mastery Newsletter

Today’s article is intended to overwhelm…heh heh.

 

Overwhelm with info about how really, really bad sugar is for all of us. It comes from Wellness Consultant Catrina Roesch. And yes, you can skim it and still get the message.

     67 Ways to kill Your Family with Sugar

In addition to throwing off the body’s homeostasis (The ability or tendency of an organism or a cell to maintain internal equilibrium by adjusting its physiological processes.), excess sugar may result in a number of other significant consequences.

BOOKS WORTH READING

 

Effortless Healing –Dr. Joseph Mercola.

Sidestep Illness, Shed Excess Weight, and Help Your Body Fix Itself. http://www.effortlesshealing.com/

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

MOVIES WORTH WATCHING

 

The Wipers Times A BBC production. Excellent for history buffs.

True Story: It’s 1916 and British Captain Fred Roberts and his detachment discover an abandoned printing press in the ruins of Ypres, Belgium.

 

Roberts has an idea, he will produce a newspaper to raise the spirits of his soldiers, taking their minds off ‘the attentions of Messrs Hun and Co.’ They call it The Wipers Times, after the army slang for Ypres, and fill it with spoofs, jokes, and subversive comedy.

 

A hit with the troops on the Western Front, it also incurs the wrath of top brass who want it banned.

FUN

 

In my many years I have come to a conclusion that one useless man is a shame, two is a law firm and three or more is a congress. – John Adams
