Health is....
Health comes of a healthy lifestyle
Eat less. Eat whole foods. The more you eat, the less energy you have; less food generates more energy. Drink one quart of water for every 50 lbs you weigh, let water be a lot of your food.
Because it is. If you are what you eat, you’re 70% water. The brain is over 90% water; eat up the water. After 6pm, just have liquids, soups, sops, sups, that’s why it’s called supper.
Move more. The more you move, the more you can move; the less you do, the less you can do. Movement generates health energy.
Relax. Sit in a hot tub, on a porch, lay in the sun, swing under a shade tree, listen to your favorite music, get a massage, do a colonic, make love, have a glass of organic wine or a couple of natural unforced beers.
Sleep. Lay down for eight hours. No more, no less. It’s an Ancient wisdom that works. You don’t even need to be asleep, don’t stress over it if your not. If you are asleep, all the better. The less you eat, the better you sleep. The better you sleep the less food you feel you need. Less food equals more energy to move and the ability to do. The more you move and do, the easier it is to relax. The more you relax, the better you sleep.
This creates health. You feel well. Look well. You enjoy life well. You do well. You are disease free, you recover from injury faster, and your imagination works better.
When life throws you challenges you say, “Bring it!”
As more and more people are discovering health through self care by making simple “life style” changes. The pharmaceutical drug lords are shifting their, “cultural medical marketing” to a more dubious role of “life style enhancers.” In order for consumers to avoid the frustration and trauma of making a personal change that is somehow founded upon character, will, desire and a modicum of self-discipline, they can simply pop steroids to appear younger, stronger and more athletic.
They can pop Prozac and appear to be a more focused business person, or even take Viagra in order to avoid the embarrassment of the fact you’re probably not excited by the person you’re with, or, you can make her really feel it with, “Enzyte.”
What is it going to mean in the near future, to be human? Undoubtedly thousands of medicines will shift from medicinal to “supportives” of “enhanced” life styles, while delivering a drug-fulfilled experience of life.
Knowledge is your key to changing your situation, and by sharing this knowledge I’m empowering you with the first step to putting an end to the strong-arm tactics of the "Sick-Care" industry.

Martial Art Kicks Cancer Out of Here
The Chinese refer to life’s energy flow as chi, also spelt qi. Chi, or energy, is the core and basic foundation of all of their methods for healing. Tai chi is a method of manipulating chi through controlled movements or postures. It is a martial art, and is now recognized as a remedy to assist patients of chronic illnesses or cancer when they are in a weak state of body and mind.
Since the chi and the human body have to work in harmony, it is believed that through a series of precise movements, the energy field within is revitalized. In other words, the movements are designed to bring about a change in the chi flow to the body and mind. When the chi is flowing uninterrupted a person is healthy, but when someone becomes ill it is necessary to perform these movements to energize and return the chi to a normal flow. This basic concept is also a focus of other energy-healing techniques, like Reiki and Qigong.
Tai chi is similar to a dance, in that each movement is followed by a counter-movement that perfectly coincides with the previous movement in the opposite direction. This is a perfect balancing technique that is slow, yet graceful, similar to a choreographed performance. Concentration on proper breathing from the diaphragm is also critical. Progress with Tai chi is ultimately followed by increased muscle mass and tone, flexibility, improved posture, stamina, and even improved balance in a person’s stature. It is through repetition and mastery of technique that a higher and healthier attainment of strength and well being is achieved. Cardiovascular benefits are another result from the carefully articulated and focused breathing throughout each movement of the body.
This martial art is a great exercise for everyone, there are many testimonials urging the use of Tai chi during cancer treatments. Though it is not a direct cure for certain ailments and cancer, it helps ease the pain of treatments, relieve stress, and promotes immune system function. Martha McInnis, a breast cancer survivor, learned about using Tai chi as an integrative medicine when she was undergoing radiation, and hails that Tai chi made her live better and gather the strength to fight her cancer with full force. Many doctors agree with Martha, and recommend patients diagnosed with an aggressive or low-survivability rate cancer, to adopt a complementary therapy.
So far there have been positive results in patients with deadly cancers like non-hodgkin’s lymphoma, pleural mesothelioma, or pancreatic cancer. The increased wholeness and wellness in the whole body is what doctors and patients claim to be the benefit of using Tai Chi with conventional cancer treatments.

Genes and how they relate to our health
Hello and welcome to another week of Total Vitality - everything health, fitness and wellbeing!
This will be the last official post for a few weeks as I've become super busy with other work, so keep checking back and tuning in to 2SSR 99.7FM in Sydney to find out when I'm back on air and blogging!
This week I check out all the healthy stats of the herb MINT and also a new vegetable I found in the vege shop - SEA ASPARAGUS. Just click on the links to view and download a copy of the fact sheet!
Also on today's show:
We spoke to Dr Bill Davison about Genes and how they relate to our health and how much of our life is predetermined by our genes. A very interesting interview and surprising in many ways. Moral of the story - don't blame your genes for everything or you might not experience complete and utter health and happiness.
Stay tuned for free seminars being held by Dr Bill Davison, happening in April!

Today we speak to Fiona about the next stage of creating long term change in your health and wellness. It is always important to start with a vision and create strong goals around what you'd like to achieve, but what happens when obstacles come up? How do you get around them and push through to achieving those ideals you long for?

Last time I spoke to Dr Bill we discussed an interesting topic - that of Biocybernetics! I'd never heard the term before and didn't quite know what it meant. But after chatting for a while it became clear that all the influences of our lives have created beliefs, patterns and habits in our minds. Some of them obviously are very beneficial and help us to live our day-to-day lives.
But some of them it seems hold us back. They stop us from losing weight, they make us continue smoking, they cause us to fear certain things and maybe even contribute to a low self-esteem or self-worth. These patterns are obviously not helping us and so why not find a way to turn them around so that you can get more out of life, do more, be more, achieve more! Well lucky enough Dr Bill knows all about Biocybernetics and practices it in his clinic, which is why I decided to see him for a consultation. The technique is very powerful and works nicely with other work i've done with NLP, hypnosis, affirmations etc. Except this seems to be an easy, painless way for everybody to help themselves in whatever area they feel needs help. Whether that be weight loss, self belief, phobias, habits, careers or relationships.
Dr Bill is holding a number of FREE seminars in Sydney over April - for more information contact Dr Bill on the above contact details.
Also here is a free report
Coming soon...
