* Saline Nasal Wash Helps Kids Fight Colds, Flu *
Rinsing with a special saline nasal wash made from Atlantic seawater improves
symptoms in children with colds and flu, and may prevent recurrence of these
infections, a new study claims.
"We brush our teeth every day, however, we do not pay attention to our noses --
a potential gate for infection," said study co-author Dr. Jana Skoupa, of Pharma
Projects in Prague, Czech Republic. "Nasal wash should be used, based on our
findings, immediately."

* Major Headache? Seven Common Migraine Triggers: Many Migraine Culprits Are
Preventable, Pain Experts Say *
"All things in moderation" is a wise motto for all of us, but especially for
those who suffer from painful migraines.
These skull-crushing headaches can be debilitating and last for days, confining
a person to a soft bed in a darkened room.
"It's a pretty disabling headache," said Dr. Lawrence Newman, director of the
Headache Institute at St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital in New York. "It has an
effect on your kids, co-workers, family and friends. They all suffer."

* Naturopathic Medicine *
"Naturopathic physicians are some of the best trained doctors when it comes to
diagnosing and treating a broad range of health concerns from a natural and
holistic perspective," says David Brady, ND, head of the clinical nutrition
program at Bridgeport University and a practicing naturopath himself. A
naturopathic physician is a medical professional who's been trained in seeing
the patient as a whole person, rather than as a collection of symptoms. While in
a few states (Oregon, Washington, California, Arizona, and Hawaii) they can
legally prescribe drugs, their first inclination is to treat patients with a
combination of natural non-pharmaceutical treatments including nutrition, herbal
and botanical medicine, Chinese medicine, hydrotherapy, manipulation, and
acupuncture.

Physician?" - By Dr. Jonny Bowden, go to

* Conscious Eating *
To paraphrase Einstein, one can't solve a problem at the same level of
consciousness at which it's created. So then why do we continue to diet to lose
weight when we know full well we will gain that same weight back? Why do we
swear we will be "good" tomorrow and then fail to achieve that "goodness"?
For some of us, so much of our time and energy is spent worrying about food and
our bodies. If we were to free that energy up, imagine how much could be
channeled into becoming the passionate, talented, creative person we are. ...

* Fitness Goals *
New Year's Resolutions come and go, but an idea turned into an intention can
become a powerful magnet that draws you toward what you truly desire. So what is
the difference between a resolution and an intention? How do you create an
intention that inspires you rather then repels you away? A resolution is a
decision that has been made and determined, and there seems to be no give or
take. An intention is a purpose, and is a guide toward a planned action. A
purpose can go in different directions and has some give or take. An intention
opens us to a world of possibilities and a will to help ourselves.

*** Book Review: The Miracle of Optimism: Change Your Perspective, Transform
Your Life. – By Kevin M. Touhey ***
-------------------------------------------------------------
I am an admitted pessimist, and have been for most of my life. That said, I
still have some room in my cynical soul for a little hope and inspiration to
push through, and Mr. Touhey's book has just the sort of sincere and comfortable
quality to reach me.
Touhey's book is revealing, not only about his own familial and personal
history, but also about the mistakes people often make in viewing themselves and
the world. His lessons and exercises are totally effective in leading people
toward a definite change in perspective, and his personal definitions of certain
key self-growth ideas are just as helpful. His way of describing self-esteem
versus self-confidence influenced me greatly, and inspired me to re-evaluate how
I feel about myself and my actions in certain situations.
If you are a reader looking for a different way to view the world and yourself
in it, "The Miracle of Optimism," with its relatable storytelling style and its
effective lessons and exercises, is a book you need to read.
