Treatments
For many years health challenge treatments were focused on medications only. But there is a sweeping change upon us as medical science begins to understand the power of our own system to aid our wellness, and the harmful side-effects of many medications.
Treatments in many health issues today aren’t just about prescription drugs but includes therapies that tap into our body’s own ability to fight “invasions” using the power of our own mind. In most instances this isn’t instead of, but in addition to, prescribed medication. But where prescription drugs have not, or cannot, help, then other therapies are sought.
Treatments today need to provide long-term solutions and not just address symptoms, and the selection of materials you’ll find here cover insights into hypnosis, mental illness, cognitive behavioral therapy, stress and anxiety, and much more.
Enjoy the articles.

Are you an orthorexic? If you have never heard of this concept, then perhaps you might want to read on as this is not a new phenomenon, but one that is getting more attention due to the greater emphasis in today’s society on eating healthy. Are you obsessed with eating healthy all of the time? Orthorexia nervosa was first coined by Dr. Steven Bratman to describe his own experiences with food choices and eating. It is not currently listed in the DSM-5 as an actual eating disorder, but has many of the qualities of an eating disorder which makes it similar to actual eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa and bulimia. In a nutshell, othorexics have an unhealthy obsession with eating healthy all of the time. Read more…
“I know what you are thinking, and I don’t like it!”, so you say. “Really? Why would you say that?” she responds. “I can tell by the look on your face, you are thinking bad things about me,” you respond. “Really? Actually I was just thinking about how bloated I feel,” she replies, looking less than amused.

If so, you are going to learn a lot of miserable lessons in life.
A New Year is here and many people are already discussing how they want to, or plan on losing weight in the New Year. Many people will be going to weight loss clinics, gyms, paying personal trainers or dieticians, and trying to eat right. When I refer to “right” I am referring to the “right” healthier foods or best super foods. Interestingly, many people have difficulty losing the weight they want to lose because they do not eat at the “right” times of the day! The right time to eat is before night time, you know that “time” of the day when your body is slowing down in terms of metabolism and sucks up calories like a Chia Pet! Here’s more…
Over the last few years, the outbreak of the virus known as shingles has become more prevalent in North America. The virus itself appears first inside the body and the symptoms develop on the skin as an extremely painful rash that resembles chicken pox. Most often the pustules appear as blisters on the torso, sides, upper back and neck of the individual. Some of the more painful lesions spring forth on the face and the upper neck. The virus itself, “varicella-zoster” is the same virus that causes chicken pox. Interestingly, once you have had chicken pox, which most people have when they were children, the virus remains in the body inactive. Read more here…
Do you remember when you were a kid how you would dread going to bed because it meant being all alone in your little bed in the darkness? Of course you absolutely had to have the closet door shut as you worried you might look in that direction and perhaps see red eyes staring back at you. Maybe you had to check underneath your bed or behind your bedroom door to make sure the “boogieman” wasn’t hiding there, waiting to gobble you up! At least you are an adult now and there is no need to worry anymore about sleeping with the lights on, or at least with a tiny little night light, or is there? Read how to overcome it here…
Do you find that loud noises, especially the sudden ones bother you? Do you become easily unraveled, even jittery after hearing loud sounds that you are stressed out for a long period of time thereafter? Are there certain sounds that you just can’t seem to block out no matter what you do that get so deep under your skin that they lead you to feeling irate?

More information is available today than ever before on Tourette Syndrome and Obsessive Compulsive Disorders (OCD) which often are at the root of facial tics. Tourette Syndrome is a neurological disorder that demonstrates strong symptoms which include ticking and sudden movements. The most common early symptoms seen in Tourette Syndrome are tics that include facial tics, rapid eye blinking and squinting, as well as twitches that involve the mouth. The onset of this disorder usually occurs in older children and teens, before the age of 18 years of age. In order for the tics to be directly correlated too, or related to Tourette Syndrome, the tics must be persistent for at least one year in the individual. Moreover, the tics become so mild to very intense, and can come in bouts throughout the course of a day, or sporadically. In some instances, the ticking may stop for several days, or even weeks only to return.
Neuro-Linguistic Programming or NLP hasn’t been around for very long – 40 years. It has however been employed by some famous self-help gurus – most noteworthy is Tony Robbins. But this doesn’t tell the important part of its capabilities as we do not all have the charisma and tribal following of a Tony Robbins or a T. Harv Eker, and neither do most practitioners of NLP. NLP has been used by its practitioners as a means to help people achieve a different result in their life. These can be people who have a major behavioral issue of habit they want to change, or people who seek a richer and more fulfilling life. As NLP, at its core, offers the potential for deeper self-awareness and ability to control outcomes with this knowledge, then this all makes sense. Discover how it could benefit you here…
Panic attacks are a serious matter and can be very debilitating for some people. It is a known fact that almost one in five people suffer from anxiety or some form of it at any given time. Panic attacks are a type of anxiety. Anxiety is often a result of some traumatic experience one has experienced, or it is a perceived stressor from watching or witnessing a traumatic event. Once a person experiences anxiety a couple of times they are more prone to experience it over and over. Furthermore, once someone experiences a panic attack, they are more likely to get worse, to the point of withdrawing from many activities they enjoy.
