The Inspirational Power of Decisions

The quality of the decisions you make are a direct reflection of the quality of your health.

If you fail to make any decisions, nothing will change, and you’ll get nowhere.

George Washington and Mahatma Gandhi both took on the British Empire against overwhelming odds, yet with Energy, Passion, Inspiration and Courage they both won.

You too can be EPIC when it comes to health, and leading your family and friends.

Every time you make a decision it gets easier to make another.  Your brain gets stronger. So choose to make decisions to make your life better.

It’s your choice which type of decisions you make.

In the end, only you can decide to build the life you want..

Infobesity

Infobesity is a term I came across just recently, whilst putting together a new course.

I cover the basics in these 2 Facebook Lives:

Cold Hormesis

Controlled Cold – Simple, Unpleasant, Effective

What happened when I asked an 80 year old to have cold showers?

Known effects of controlled cold exposure, technically known as cold hormesis:

• Improves the heat output of your cells (so you burn more fat)
• Increases the amount of energy your cells can make (so you actually get more energy)
• Improves hormone control, including those to do with appetite control
• Decreases anxiety
• Relieves depression
• increases alertness
• Improves immunity
• Makes you more resilient to stress

So you won’t be surprised when I tell you that an 80 year old with brain fog and headaches resulting from a stroke found dramatic improvement just by having a cold shower every day for 2 or 3 minutes.

Hormesis is anything that stresses you that makes you stronger.  So exercise is a form or hormesis, as is fasting, and using saunas.

If you want to learn more about hormesis, and how to get it into your life, along with other techniques that make you more energetic,  then check out my 7 Week Anti- Ageing Program

It’s Not All In The Mind

Mental Health is About More Than ‘In the Mind’

It’s great that Prince Harry and Prince William are doing what they can to decrease the stigma about mental health and getting people to talk more.

Here’s some facts from www.mentalhealth.org.uk

• Mental health problems are one of the main causes of the overall disease burden worldwide.¹
• Mental health and behavioural problems (e.g. depression, anxiety and drug use) are reported to be the primary drivers of disability worldwide, causing over 40 million years of disability in 20 to 29-year-olds.²
• Major depression is thought to be the second leading cause of disability worldwide and a major contributor to the burden of suicide and ischemic heart disease.³
• It is estimated that 1 in 6 people in the past week experienced a common mental health problem⁴

So what can we do?

Well first it’s important to realise that the brain is the most stress vulnerable, toxin vulnerable, energy dependent, and nutrition dependent organ in the body.

While most psychologists and mental health workers target stress, and also use drugs to modify brain behaviour, the 3 areas of toxins, energy and nutrition are almost universally neglected.

What does this mean?

It means that there are thousands, if not millions of people with mental health problems, that could be completely cured  IF they detoxed, where well nourished, and exercised in the right way.

I covered a lot of this last year:
https://www.thepainreliefcentres.co.uk/mental-health-awareness-week/

And here’s some of the latest research on the links between brain health, your gut, what you eat, and the environment:

I don’t expect you to read all the above articles, but I do want you to realise that mental health is not all ‘in the mind’, it is actually all around us, and very much tied to our need to clean up our environment.

Many Functional Medicine practitioners around the world find adults and children with ADHD, depression, bi-polar, schizophrenia, addictions, self-harming tendencies, memory loss etc. can improve with techniques and protocols that are natural, available to anyone, and have long lasting results.

This is urgent to share, and urgent to take action on.

If you’d like to discuss any of this with me then just ask.

You Can Fix Your Brain part 1

Over the next couple of months I’m going to be sharing with you what I’m learning from You can Fix Your Brain by Dr. Tom O’Bryan.

I apologize for the quality, it was originally a Facebook Live broadcast.

You can request to join the group here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/thehealthlab7/

As well as watching the Facebook Live broadcasts I’d recommend buying the book, especially if there is a history of dementia in your family.

Just click on the picture if you wish to purchase from Amazon:

Transform Your Brain

This is something we’ve been teaching in Functional Neurology for 15 to 20 years.

It’s always surprising to discover that even neuroscientists need a ‘jolt’ to realise it though:

Her prescription is 30 minutes of exercise that gets you out of breath 4 x week.

One aspect missing from the research though is the effects of poor spinal function on brain health.  If the spine is not moving properly, then you can not get the full benefits of exercise.

So make sure your spine is fully mobile by getting it checked (you’ll also help prevent injuries).

Diabetes Type 2, Causes and Cures

Toxic Diabetes

Most people in the West die of preventable causes, like diabetes and heart disease.

However, you can only prevent these chronic diseases if you
a) know what you are doing to cause them
and
b) take steps to address the cause.

With diabetes type 2, if you ask most health experts like GP’s and nutritionists they will probably tell you its all about sugar and poor food choices.

They may also say there’s a link to obesity.

We certainly know that an extreme ultra-low calorie diet will reverse a ‘fatty liver’ caused by a poor diet, and that this then leads to a reversal of diabetes.  (I reported on the Fast Fix back in 2012 – https://www.thepainreliefcentres.co.uk/meditation-and-diabetes/)

However, it may be that it’s not the sugar itself that caused the fatty liver, it may actually have been something else..

Toxic Load.

Studies done a number of years ago revealed that it was toxicity and not obesity that was related to diabetes development.

Certain toxins increase the likelihood of diabetes by a huge 37.7 x

The good news though is that this fatty, toxic liver can be cleaned up:
