Hypnotherapy: How can it help me?

To understand how hypnotherapy can help you, you need to understand how it works and what it involves. Hypnotherapy is a natural process much like the state between being awake and asleep called the hypnoidal point. It makes you more open to positive suggestions and allows you to make good changes by nudging your subconscious into the desired thought process. In this state you are completely aware of things around you but are reinforcing positive thoughts in the subconscious mind which is what drives the conscious mind in our waking state. The way you feel during a session can differ for each person but generally it makes you feel relaxed and refreshed. This makes it excellent for stress as it allows you to stop and take a break for a moment as well as teaching you new skills.

Constipation

Did you know that there is a link between constipation and bowel cancer? If your bowel is not moving that means you do not have enough fibre in your diet, you have a high build up of toxins and the possibility of cancer after some years of this happening does exist. However because everyone is different there can be no hard and fast rule about how often you should go to the toilet but bad habits begin when we are young.

Nutrition: Dry hair and hair loss

Nutrition is important when it comes to caring for your hair. If you are colouring it, straightening it, perming it or using a hair dryer you also increase your chances of hair loss. From my experience, I have found, despite popular naturopathic belief that most hair loss comes from inside, that what we do on the outside affects hair loss even more. Air conditioning, chemicals in shampoos and hair products, hair dyes, gels, sprays etc. all take their toll. Yes, food and illnesses do affect hair loss but don’t blame it all on your ill health if you are using the above toxic substances.

Parkinson’s disease and your health

Meanwhile natural ways to treat Parkinson’s assist in delaying the progression of the disease. I need to say though that the disease can be very virulent at the speed it progresses so it is important to work with both your doctor and natural practitioner at the same time to increase your level of health.

Give up sugar and change your life

Sugar is in everything in some way or another. It is in food naturally and also added to food as a sweetener or preservative. Especially in processed, canned or packet foods the amount of sugar (and sodium) are especially high. This is because they need the product to last on a shelf for 12 months and it is often high even in savoury products.

Emphysema can kill you so stop smoking now!

Emphysema is not curable and can limit your lifestyle although modern medicine can make the disease tolerable and if you are diagnosed early you may even be able to minimize the symptoms. However, the world is in an epidemic of emphysema and chronic bronchitis which make up what is called chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Creating balanced diet plans for the New Year

Either people are overdoing the protein and exercise with imbalanced diet plans which risk messing up their hormone levels, thyroid and liver or, in an effort to lose weight; they do the opposite and don’t eat enough protein or even enough food, which slows down their metabolism. This means they lose even less weight and the body store fat and fluid thinking it is about to starve.
