  All miracle cures described in history were the products of powerful energies taken from the ether and transformed into healing energy by the power of the human mind.

In reality, the miracle cure is open to everyone if they wish, because we all live and confirm to the same laws of the Universe. The difference between people who can find the miracle cure and those who can not, is the knowledge of how to go about getting access to and using this powerful Universal energy.

Can You as a person get access to this powerful healing?  Yes!!!  You can.

You just need to focus 100% on being healthy, happy, inspired and fulfilled. Act like you are healthy and happy now, not when you get all your ills fixed (because when You fix one thing another thing will come up and you will continue to wait for good health). So, act now - do something for yourself today.

You will get pleasure and satisfaction from doing something nice and you will feel it in your soul. Do something nice for others: show your love and care, buy a surprise gift, share your positive energy and inspiration with them.

Don't expect anything back for what you do for yourself and others. And over time the Universe will surprise You by giving You what You want.
You can learn all these Universal secrets on healing from any of the products on this

    Bulimia food addiction: what part of the brain is responsible and how to fix it?

Bulimia (bulimia nervosa) is an addictive eating disorder which begins with physical cravings then evolves into a mental obsession and finally turns into a spiritual illness. It usually comes from an unresolved trauma (emotional, psychological or even physical) earlier in life.

The question is what is the mechanism of developing a bulimic food addiction? What happens in a bulimic brain when she/he develops bulimia?

Here is the short and simple explanation. Our brain consists of two halves (called hemispheres). Both hemispheres are covered by a thick layer called the cortex. The cortex is the conscious part of the brain, the part we think with (just logic thinking). But this part of the brain is not responsible for our feelings.

We have another small part of our brain, which lies between the two hemispheres and connects them. This little part is called the limbic system. The limbic system as discussed in the next section, is involved in regulating emotions and motivations. In addition, parts of the limbic system, the amygdala and hippocampus, are important for memory.

The limbic system does not have a conscious thoughts it has only feelings
. In other words, the limbic system is what we call our subconscious or subconscious mind.

It has been found that people with emotional problems have an imbalance of the limbic system or subconscious. This includes problems like anxiety, depression, eating disorders, alcoholism and other addictions.

In the period of acute stress, we also have an imbalance in the limbic system (or subconscious) - that is why stress affects us, not only emotionally, but mentally and physically as well.

After stress, some people recover quickly - and we call them "strong people." What "strong" actually means is that they know how to affect their limbic system (subconscious) and put it in balance.

The question is: how to influence the limbic system and put it in the right balance?

The answer is: the cortex, which is the conscious part of the brain and through this we have influence over the limbic system the non-conscious part. The cortex, which makes decisions for us, learns new things, and  understands things for us, should influence the non-conscious part of the brain by giving signals to the limbic system to work differently.

Most eating disorders are a learned behavior. Initially you taught yourself to diet, or to become slim. Initially it was your own conscious decision to lose weight because you wanted to look better. This conscious decision was made by your cortex and sent to your limbic system, which then gave you feelings (like feeling good about yourself when you become slim).

So, what you need to do is reverse this faulty teaching; you (or your cortex) should make another decision (about changing your own image and feelings that you have now, like starving yourself or purging, back to a normal response) and send a signal to your limbic system to foster good feelings about yourself and make new decision about your life.

How do you do this? There are lots of examples how this works. There are special new programs that can automatically affect the limbic system of your brain (the part of the brain where the eating disorder lives). These programs can identify and eliminate your subconscious blockages that created your eating disorder in the first place.

To conclude, bulimia food addiction develops as a result of subconscious processes due to unresolved trauma or strong dissatisfaction with one's body image. The limbic system is responsible for developing the problem but the conscious part of the brain (cortex) can affect it and reverse the abnormal mental process.

What can you do if you are a parent who suspects their child has Bulimia how do you know for sure?

I have been ask this question so many times by lots of worried parents who think their child may have bulimia but don’t know any of the warning signs.
If you are one of these parents then here is a list of things to look out for, I will start with simple things first: 

1: Look for an excessive amount of food that is missing. Things like packets of biscuits you have just bought and they have disappeared overnight. Packets of sweets gone without you even having one yourself. Look for easy accessible foods that seem to be gone faster than what is normal for your family use. 

2: The child is starting to act unusual around meal times. Being a bit anxious and not wanting to eat certain food groups, or may play with their food. They may say they have eaten at a friends place but then start to raid the food cupboard for easy food soon after dinner.

3: You notice that the child may have lots of food rappers in their bedroom hidden under the bed or in their trash basket. Half eaten candy bars or potato crisp packets hidden in places that are unusual.

Long Term Effects of Bulimia Nervosa. 

Bulimia affects different organs. And the longer you have bulimia the more organs get affected and damaged.
The organs that suffer the most are: heart, kidney, brain, digestive system, bones, skin and endocrine glands. 

The heart gets damaged from the constant electrolyte imbalances caused by continuous purging and becomes weaker the longer the bulimia continues. Some people even can die from this complication when a weak heart goes into a "heart block". This is when the heart suddenly stops beating due to extremely low potassium or other mineral deficiency induced by vomiting and laxatives abuse. 

Kidney damage is very common among long term bulimics. The kidneys are organs that normally correct mineral abnormalities in the body. But when a person's mineral balance is constantly disturbed, like in case of bulimia, the kidneys are under enormous strain to correct it and eventually they get damaged.  

The brain suffers also from the moment bulimia starts. Read More
 

 
 

              Different ways to get pregnant fast and keep it (not to miscarry)

Preconception care. 

To get pregnant fast and have a healthy pregnancy first of all you need to know about preconception care.

Preconception health is a woman’s health before she becomes pregnant.

Pre-conception care is about both parents getting themselves into optimum physical, biochemical and emotional health before trying to conceive.

It focuses on the conditions and risk factors that could affect a woman if she becomes pregnant. Preconception health applies to women who have never been pregnant, and also to women who could become pregnant again. Preconception health looks at factors that can affect a fetus or infant. These include factors such as taking prescription drugs or drinking alcohol. The key to promoting preconception health is to combine the best medical care, healthy behaviors, strong support, and safe environments at home and at work.

The five most important things a woman can do for preconception health are:

1.     Take 400 mcg of folic acid a day for at least 3 months before becoming pregnancy to reduce the risk of birth defects.

2.     Stop smoking and drinking alcohol.

3.     If you currently have a medical condition, be sure these conditions are under control. Conditions include but are not limited to asthma, diabetes, oral health, obesity, or epilepsy. Be sure that your vaccinations are up to date.

4.     Talk to your doctor and pharmacist about any over the counter and prescription medicines you are taking, including vitamins, and dietary or herbal supplements, you are taking.

5.     Avoid exposures to toxic substances or potentially infectious materials at work or at home, such as chemicals, or cat and rodent feces.

                               From Infertility to Getting pregnant.

In my new book you will discover the principles of getting pregnant naturally from 18 couples who succeeded despite long years of infertility and after failing many medical tests and procedures regarding their infertility problems. They were considered infertile by doctors diagnosis. The reasons for not getting pregnant could be many: from not having enough intercourse at the correct time to having problems like endometriosis or PCOS.

But I can reassure you that any woman who still has eggs released by her ovaries is not infertile and can have a healthy baby. It doesn't matter how old she is or what she was told by her doctors, if she still ovulates then she can fall pregnant.


Many natural fertility strategies are not recognized by many medical doctors simply because these strategies will not make them any money. Doctor's get paid for doing what they do: giving out drugs and performing surgical procedures. It is what they have been trained to do for many many years and they were not trained in natural methods.

So, it is understandable why they offer you fertility drugs, then IVF and Intrauterine insemination, Intracystoplasmic Sperm Injection, Zygote Intrafallopian Transfer and the like, it is all they know. Their recommendations are good for the patient who tries it and finally gets pregnant, but for many thousands of women who do not succeed with these sophisticated invasive treatments it is just too bad.

So what do these women have to do?
Keep repeating it all over again and go through the pain and anxiety once more?

And what about the women who don't want to use these invasive treatments? Just forget the dream of having a baby?
No certainly not: So what is the answer?
The answer is – never give up on your dream of having a baby. Try other methods to get pregnant, especially the non-invasive ones. Those that will not give you any side effects or pain.

                                           The Truth Behind Eating Disorders.

The truth is it does not matter how much you as a sufferer or you as a helper to a sufferer want to stop the eating disorder: unless you can break the mental conditioning and the mental blockages you will always fail, ‘no exceptions period’.   

You can wish to stop as much as you like but without the proper methodology you are wasting your time. You know yourself how this works, you tell yourself I am feeling so positive today this is it; this is the day I turn everything around and the first small incident in your day and all your resolution goes out the window.  

Why is this, why does this always happen? It happens because the mental blockages are still there controlling your every move. It is those little voices that keep telling you, you can’t succeed. These are the same voices I had that told me I could not get through the stresses of the day without my bulimia. (Yes I suffered with Bulimia for years)

I knew they were there and still I could not just turn them off, if I as a doctor
couldn’t how do you think a person with no training is going to fair? No very good at all, and the statistics prove this.  Read More

 

     

                             Media and influence on women body image. 

It has become obvious now that the media advertises and promotes a very unhealthy trend of extreme dieting and other bad eating habits to women. Most of media sources put on their covers images of skinny emancipated females. Doing this they influence the subconscious mind of the masses. And women continue to spend their money trying to achieve this unattainable look they constantly see in media advertising.

To try and solve this problem let’s answer the next questions. 1. What is body image? 2. What kind of trends in the media industry are we noticing now? 3. How do the media influence our perception of body image? 4. What could be the reasons behind this? 5. What are the consequences of this kind of trend? 6. What are some real suggestions on how to improve your body image?

Your body image is how you perceive, think and feel about your body. This may have no bearing at all on your actual appearance. For instance, it is common in Western nations for women to believe they are larger and fatter than they really are. Only one in five women is satisfied with their body weight. Nearly half of all normal weight women overestimate their size and shape. A distorted body image can lead to self-destructive behavior, like dieting or eating disorders. Approximately nine out of 10 young Australian women have dieted at least once in their lives.   Read More

                                                                          Bulimia Recovery.

Family and home therapy are probably two of the most important aspects in the treatment of bulimia nervosa. Recovery for the sufferer will happen at home, over time, and living alongside parents, siblings and other family members.

There is a simple reason for this; it is because people under treatment with counselors only spend around 45 minutes a week on average with their therapist or doctor. For the rest of the time people live at home and recovery must take place there living amongst other family members.

In the past few weeks there has been a mountain of scientific proof saying the best way to recovery quickly from an eating disorder is to get help from the other members of the family in a concerted effort by all concerned. A study recently by the University of Chicago conducted by Dr. Daniel le Grange and his team, showed that family therapy is much more effective than traditional solo psychotherapy in helping young people battle with bulimia.

Whereas other bulimia therapy methods where the family was not involve in the treatment process, showed a much higher failure rate in long term improvement. People generally relapse at home after attending clinics and therapist in a matter of weeks sometimes months. And the reason for it is normally just a lack of correct family support and help.

Family therapy or recovery at home must include certain things. Read More


 

Prozac and Eating Disorders.

Why is it that some people get benefits from this medication and some do not? And should Prozac really be a first line medication for eating disorders?

First, let’s look at the reasons why Prozac as an eating disorder treatment could be effective. 

Prozac is an antidepressant. And since up to half of eating disorders sufferers have an additional psychological disorder such as depression or obsessive-compulsive disorder, Prozac can help a sufferer by treating these disorders.

Also, Prozac is designed to restore and maintain healthy levels of a brain chemical called serotonin, which controls mood, feelings and appetite. So, by controlling mood, feelings and appetite Prozac makes a sufferer feel better and more in control.

So what is the other side to the use of this drug? Read More

                                                     
                                                         
Misery is the Secret to Happiness

The key to a happy relationship could be accepting that some miserable times are unavoidable, experts say. Therapists from California State University, Northridge and Virginia Tech say accepting these problems is better than striving for perfection.

And they blame cultural fairy tales and modern love stories for perpetuating the myth that enjoying a perfect relationship is possible. The report was published in the Journal of Marital and Family Therapy.

The authors, Diane Gehart and Eric McCollum say it is a "myth that, with enough effort we can achieve a state without suffering." And they say healthcare professionals may not be helping the situation. "The field of mental health perpetuates this myth with the very concept of 'mental health', which implies a state without suffering," they say. More click here Study Improves

                                                                        Eating Disorders

A study performed by researchers at the School of Psychology at Deakin University in Melbourne, Australia found that exposure to idealized media images of “perfect” thin female and muscular male body types had negative effects on an individual’s own body image and body change behaviors.
One hundred thirty-three women and 93 men were assessed for body image beliefs before being exposed to the images. The researchers wanted to know how certain psychological factors predicted changes in the study participants’ emotions after being exposed. Read More

                                                            Study backs worth of Atkins diet

Atkins is easy to follow
The controversial low-carbohydrate Atkins diet has scored well in a major US analysis.
The Stanford University study, of more than 300 women, rated Atkins ahead of three other popular diets.

Those who followed Atkins for a year lost the most weight, and recorded the most beneficial effect on their cholesterol and blood pressure levels. However, the Journal of the American Medical Association study did not look at possible long-term health problems. It seems to be a viable alternative for dieters.

 Tips for good health:


Diet, exercise and sleep are the three main factors for women to keep a healthy body: so try to maintain a balance between them.

Diets, which are rich in protein and vitamins and low in fat and sugars, are recommended. Green leafy vegetables and fresh fruits should betaken on daily basis.
 
Don't eat fried food if at all possible, make it grilled baked or boiled instead. Have a lunch which consist of fresh vegetables and salads only around three times a week: any more that this you will become bored with the diet and slip back into old eating habits.

Try not to eat anything after 7pm (take a low sugar drink instead) because your body does not spend a lot of energy while you sleep, so all the energy from food taken just before bed time will turn into fat.

Exercise increases the blood flow to all important organs of the body, including the brain. This leads to a stress free life and keeps your body healthy. Try to exercise at least 3 times a week, minimum of 30 minutes each time. If your exercising is walking, try to walk 30-40 minutes daily at a rate slightly faster than you normally would walk.

Sleep is extremely important .We are in need of sleep just as much as we are in need of oxygen. Sleep is capable of working wonders: it increases one's work efficiency, extend one's lifespan and help cures illness.

For a women it is recommended to sleep at least 7-8 hours every night. Women should not deprive themselves of sleep, this is extremely important. Add on to the main factors above a positive attitude, optimism and you will get a simple formula for being healthy for as long as you want.
