Homo Entropicus and the Human Condition

The collapsing of the 20th Century scientific science of life worldview is now obvious. That world-view, governed by Einstein's 'Premier law of all science', the 'Universal heat death Law', now embraces life-science concepts based upon fractal logic. Life-science now extends to a fractal infinity, rather than obeying the concept that all life in the universe must be condemned to a universal heat death extinction. Nanotechnology has revealed the functioning of fractal logic within the DNA responding to evolutionary information that has written the obituary of the horrific sentence of continual chaos that has been imposed upon global society for centuries.

For example. quantum biology scientists, Casati, Guaneri and Maspero from the International Centre for the Study of Dynamical Systems, in Italy, have been researching fluctuations of survival probability in an open quantum system. Now that the newly emerging quantum biological life-science chemistry has been rigorously associated with the Platonic world-view philosophy, as published by the NASA High Energy Astrophysics Division Library, an ancient crude human survival map reveals itself. As 'the human condition' holds the survival blueprint for humanity, this article asks, can the ancient map play a role to help upgrade the fractal model for environmental survival into a new practical medical science?

Medical scientists Tambasco, Eliasziw and Magliocco, have applied fractal analysis to breast cancer, categorising patients according to a scale of low, intermediate and high fractal dimension. Their findings argued that such medical methodology was more relevant for survival than the methodology used by standard prognosticators. From this observation it can be reasoned that fractal logic is the key to human well being. A life-energy discovery, selected for reprinting in 1990 by the world's largest technological research institute, Washington's IEEE SPIE Milestone Series, fully endorses that proposal.

During the 1980s two mathematical life-science papers, from the Science-Art Research Centre of Australia, now considered to have been based upon fractal logic geometrical logic, demonstrated that seashell evolution was governed by new physics forces governing optimum biological growth and development through space-time. A peer review investigation over of the Centre's claim that the 20th Century world-view had been based upon false physics assumptions, was undertaken in 1997 by the United Nations University Millennium Project, Australasian Node. In 2010, Dr Paul Wildman, the Chair to that investigation, stated in writing that the President of the Institute for Basic research in the USA had observed from the published discovery, that the 20th Century scientific world-view was unable to generate healthy biological growth and development simulations through space-time, which gives credence to the above mentioned medical life-science findings.

Fractal geometry, which evolved out of chaos theory, can be described as self similarity at infinite scales. It is a dynamical system that balances order with complexity. Without order, increasing complexity becomes chaotic and malfunctions. Disease can be considered to be an entropic human malfunction. By upgrading the original Platonic life-science guidance map,well-being, on the other hand, is our natural human condition.

The healthy human appears to reflect a fractal wholeness down to sub-atomic particle movement dimensions. Sir Isaac Newton's unpublished heresy papers, discovered last century, expressed such a fractal world-view, in which a "more profound natural philosophy existed to balance the mechanical (entropic) description of the universe", based upon the principles of particle movement. That world-view completely challenges the logic upholding the now obsoltete 20th Century world-view. The former, derived from the Platonic life-science world-view, is important. It is consistent with the new Platonic-Fullerene fractal life science Chemistry now emerging throughout the world, in particular as the forte of the University of Florence's prize winning New Measurement of Humanity Renaissance Project chemistry.

The idea of a Life Force that extends to infinity, has been common to many cultures for millennia, as the source of energy that promotes health and well being. The Chinese call it Chi; in India it is referred to as Prana. Today it is called quantum bio-energy, the auric force field, vortex energy and in many other terms. In the world of physics it is known as scalar or subtle energy and has also been referred to as time-reversed waves, non-hertzian waves, longitudinal waves, scalar waves, or zero-point energy.

In answering our question, what role does fractal logic play in the human condition survival data, the answer can be considered to be that, fractal logic is crucial in order to effect healthy human survival futuristic progression. The sooner humanity embraces the importance of fractal logic in our lives, the more chance Homo Entropicus has of making it to the next evolutionary level.



Eating Healthy Foods For Our Healthy Bodies

Food is the fuel that drives human life and health just like gas drives the automobiles. Failure to eat good food will automatically result in some kind of health problems. While many people tend to eat for the sake of satisfying their hunger, the emphasis on eating healthy foods cannot be overlooked.

In an ever busy world, it has become trendy to rush down to the nearest eatery and to grab some fries since it is always the most convenient and available option to many. There are however a lot of risks in this kind of behavior. The body needs certain nutrients to perform different functions.

These nutrients are so many ranging from some forms of acids to the fats and sugars but they are generally grouped into three major categories namely the carbohydrates, the vitamins and the proteins. Each of these groups has their specific functions in the body.

It is therefore needless to say that eating healthy foods ultimately means eating well balanced portions from all these three groups. Having acknowledged the fact that all the groups contribute significantly to the healthy body and life that we are able to lead, it is also important to point out that failure to have any or all of the groups will no doubt lead to health problems related to nutrition.

The food groups as divided into three main groups will all contribute to some problems if not found in their right quantities and quality. For starters, let us look at proteins. Proteins are known to be the major body building ingredient and it is therefore very important. In order to develop or replace any tissues or muscles in the body, you must have plenty of proteins.

Proteins come in two main groups namely the plant and animal proteins. It is in this further grouping that we will find a difference in people as well. There are those who do not eat animal proteins. They are known as vegetarians or vegans. The animal protein can be found in meat, milk and eggs while plant proteins come from beans, nuts and peas among other dicotyledonous seeds

It is nonetheless advisable not to take too much. There are always recommended rations for specific people and that can be determined by your body type as well as the activities in which you take part on a regular basis. It is their body building properties that make them very important especially for young children who need to grow. There is no way you can grow if you do not have the body building food.

The other group being the carbohydrates is responsible for the energy levels. It is this group of healthy foods that will enhance your energy and therefore having plenty of them in your diet is important especially for the very active people who need too much energy. These are the most common group of food and they can be obtained form corn, potatoes, rice bread among many others.

Lastly you have the vitamins that basically help in immune boosting. The body must have defense mechanism to fight against any diseases that may attack and the vitamins are the ones in charge of that. Vitamins are generally found in green plants such as vegetables and fruits and should be eaten in plenty.



Achieve Health Goals? Say Mooo to Meat and Dairy!

"You put a baby in a crib with an apple and a rabbit. If it eats the rabbit and plays with the apple, I'll buy you a new car." Harvey Diamond

Oh, where to begin on this topic! This could be one of the most controversial, confusing, misunderstood, mis-communicated, lied about, topics of healthy living that we face as a race today!

So why all the fuss? Why are people starting to talk more and more about meat consumption being bad for human health? Are they all just annoying tree huggers? Over the top activists who jump on any old band wagon that comes along? Or could it be that there is truth in the idea that eating meat is bad for the human body? And if this is so, why have we been taught for so many years that animal products are good for us? Do you want to achieve health goals? Stay with me, we will cover this in detail.

For years people believed that the world was flat. Only when brave sailors pushed the boundaries of understanding did the human race begin to understand the earth is a sphere.

People were absolutely certain that objects denser than air would never fly. This understanding was smashed when adventurous souls dared to attempt the impossible and use machines to fly through the air.

For centuries people believed that the there was a sun god and when they displeased this sun god, it would punish them with bad weather and poor harvest that year.Today, very few human beings hold this belief.

For years people believed there was no harm to come from smoking. It was even believed by some to be good for a person's health to smoke. Nowadays, it is widely understood that smoking, even passively, will cut years from a human life and cause illness along the way.

I believe there will come a time in the next few decades (hopefully sooner) when people will look upon eating meat with the same pitiful smile or look of disbelief they do when thinking of poor souls who used to believe smoking was ok, or that an angry sun god was responsible for the weather patterns. Quite honestly, that day couldn't come soon enough! If people really want to achieve health goals then this shift needs to happen.

"Nothing will benefit human health and increase chances for survival of life on Earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian die." Albert Einstein

For people who eat meat as a staple part of their diet, whenever this topic comes up for discussion, the usual initial response is 'meat gives me my protein, my iron, energy, helps me build muscles, people have done it for thousands of years, all animals do it, it's natural, it's why we have canine teeth.'

If someone can move past their absolute belief that it's good for them and natural to eat meat, the next and obvious question that comes up is 'Then why have we been taught that eating meat is good for us?' Great question!

Why have we been taught for decades that consuming animal products is good for us? We will cover this more later in this article, but for now suffice to say there are 2 main reasons for this sort of misunderstanding. The first is ignorance which can lead to the belief that what they are teaching you is correct. The second is that the person telling you the lie is doing so because they have another agenda.

In the case of eating meat, the other agenda very often comes down to bottom line profit of the animal farming corporations. Woe betide anyone effecting their bottom line profits for something as unimportant as the health of the human race!

So before I jump on my soapbox and put you off reading the rest of this article, let me tell you that I won't be speaking just from my opinion, I will share with you facts that you can decipher however you choose to. If this article does nothing more than entertain you for 10 minutes, so be it. If however, this jolts you out of your ignorance of the facts and helps you understand the devastating effects your food choices are having on yours and your family's health, then I will rest happy.

The Protein Myth...

This seems to be among the first objections people come up with when they have at least a semi-serious thought about not eating meat or at least cutting down the amount they eat. We have had this myth pummelled into us so deeply and for so long that virtually every adult I speak to knows that we need protein and we need to eat meat to get enough.

Nothing could be further from the truth however. The idea that we need to eat meat for protein and we need to eat the quantities that are promoted is shear lunacy. There is zero truth in this and the people promoting this idea to us have a profit to make when we buy their products. This is why it is always important to query the intention of the person telling you anything. If they have an agenda to serve themselves, you may not be able to trust the information.

For example, the standard recommendation throughout the developed world ranges anywhere from 10-50% of your daily calorie intake should be coming from protein and, in particular, animal protein in the forms of meat and dairy products. The problem with these figures is that anything higher than 10-15% is beginning to defy all sincere and unbiased evidence. To achieve health goals requires drastically less than the people who profit will ever suggest to you.

Here's what some unbiased scientists have to say:

The American Journal Of Clinical Nutrition - recommends approximately 2.5 % of our daily caloric intake should be protein.

The World Health Organisation - recommends approximately 4.5% of our daily caloric intake should be protein.

The National Research Council in the U.S - recommends just over 8% of our daily caloric intake to be protein. The NRC even allowed a hefty margin to account for what they believe to be 98% of the population. The number would be less than 8% without this added caution. So 8% is considered to be completely safe.

These types of results are typical of studies produced by unbiased parties. When scientists who truly value finding what is healthy for the human race undertake such a study, the results usually fall somewhere in this category. Studies produced by bodies that have a direct or indirect link to any large organisation that will suffer the loss of sales if the truth about protein intake becomes common knowledge often report higher numbers.

Just a few days ago I saw an article in the news that the U.K government will be asking McDonald's, KFC and other such companies to help them create U.K health policy in the future. Now forgive me for being skeptical, but I don't believe for one second that the likes of McDonald's and KFC will have, as their first priority, the health of the nation over the profit of their business'.

"The beef industry has contributed to more American deaths than all the wars of this century, all natural disasters, and all automobile accidents combined. If beef is your idea of "real food for real people" you'd better live real close to a real good hospital." Neal Barnard

So, back to this protein debate. When in your life are you growing the quickest? When you are a baby, right! So when you are consuming mother's milk and you are growing at the fastest rate you will ever grow, what percentage of mother's milk do you think is protein?

Anywhere from 1% to 7%, depending on which study you read, of human mother's milk is protein. On its own this may not act conclusively to prove our protein needs are that small, but among all the other evidence compiled over and over again, it becomes an absolute certainty that anything more than 10% is absolutely not necessary and, in fact, can be harmful to the body - especially if it is protein from any animal via meat or dairy products.

So what happens when people eat too much meat? They get sick, ill and tired. You see, contrary to popular belief, our bodies are not designed to ingest meat, certainly not in the quantities that a lot of people are jamming it down. For a start our colon is shaped in such a way that really does not lend itself to meat being processed. When compared to a natural carnivore in the wilderness, like a lion for example, who have short and smooth colons, ours are much longer and shaped in such a way that inhibits the transition of meat through our colon effectively.

But even if we take that factor away, let's look at some more evidence...

'I get my iron from meat, what would I do if I stop eating meat?'

Let's get straight passed this one with simple facts. The flesh of animals and dairy products provide very small amounts of iron compared to vegetables!

Of all the meats, studies show beef, steak in particular, has the highest concentration of iron that the animal world has to offer. In a 100 calorie serving of sirloin steak you could expect to find 1.9 milligrams of iron. Contrast this to the following list of 100 calorie servings of vegetables and fruits:

Spinach = 11.3

Beet greens = 11.2

Cucumber = 6.0

Iceburg lettuce = 3.8

Broccoli = 3.1

Courgette/zucchini = 2.7

Strawberries = 2.7

Tomatoes = 2.4

Lemons = 2.0

These are only some of the fruits and vegetables that have more iron content than the highest provider from the meat and dairy side. So if you think you need meat for it's iron content, please think again!! To achieve health goals you need simply eat your vegetables and you'll have all the protein your body needs.

Not only do meat and dairy products provide inadequate nutrition, they also have a whole host of nastiness within them which people tend to know a little about but seem reluctant to do anything about.

Part 2 of 'achieve health goals?' will be posted soon.



Immune System - The Body's Frontline of Defense

The human immune system is the body's fundamental nerve center of defense. It also keeps a close protective watch over the activities and conditions of the body's organ systems at the cellular level. It is a system constituted by organ structures and the integrative biological mechanisms that they employ in order to identify external stimuli and prevent life-threatening pathogens, infected cells, or tumors from harming the body. The immune system launches an attack on a foreign intruder that often sabotage and cause destruction inside the body-disrupting the activities of the vital organs, attacking good cells and leaving the body vulnerable to sickness or debilitating ailments.

Simply put, the immune system prevents invaders from disturbing the human body and putting it in peril.

The primary aim is to protect the human body and preserve biological homeostasis among the organ systems. A foreign intruder from without cause instability to the biological systems of the body's internal environment and the immune system for its part is primed to be sensitive to even the slightest change happening deep within the human body. The immune system are like patrolling watchmen that keep an eye on the vicinity and are ready to defend the body when a perceived threat is identified and the type of response relative to the nature of the invading intruder is determined. When the system is alerted, they build a defensive barricade-antibodies, for example-that combat a bacterium, virus or even a tumor cell. This mode of defensive strike is highly organized in a controlled way for the immune system specifically targets only alien intruders that mean harm to the body or infected cells that can harm other healthy cells.

The destruction of healthy cells in the body is linked to the disastrous onslaught of diseases that are debilitating to human health and even fatal to human life. Many of these illnesses such as tuberculosis (or bacterial infection of the lungs) and AIDS (or Acquired Immune deficiency Syndrome) are highly infectious and wreak havoc to human populations at epidemic proportions. Viruses are molecular parasites that take over the human body and even mutate into several strains that can withstand the most advanced or powerful clinical drug designed to quell them. Some viruses in addition cause types of cancers such as in the case of cervical cancer due to Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Cancerous cells, for their part, are wily enough to play tricks on the human body by flying under the system's radar so to speak and quietly yet rapidly replicating undetected.

The system's significance to human life is so vital and critical that modern science is driven to develop the best technology and pharmaceutical medicine that work with the natural autoimmune response of the body particularly in times of crisis.



The Role of Herbs in Human Life

Today users can see variety of herbs in Indian gardens and across the world. These herbs are playing important role in human life. These herbs are beneficial for getting fruitful healthy body. In many historic books these herbs are showing lots of medicinal benefits in the market. Consumers should be aware of the fact that these herbs are quite famous because of their home remedies effects. Lots of books were written by herbs experts for showing the importance of herbs in human life. Few consumers know these herbs are used as home remedies for treating day to day ailments. Herbs have the capacity of treating dreaded diseases such as swine flu. Many users go for herbs supplements for overcoming their shortcomings related to health.

Today varied types of herbs are used a medicinal plant with different qualities like flavor, scent, and other things. Also herbs are used in the preparation of herbal foods and for spiritual activities in social life. Also tulsi which is known as herb has wide spread usages because of its medicinal effects in many countries. It is known that lots of consumers using tulsi for making black tea,medicines,in poojas and other activities in their daily life. Today users should know that the herbs has important role in providing effective healthy life. Also it is found that herbs shows its importance in a varied forms such as culinary, spiritual, and medicinal.

Now different parts of the herbs such as leaves, roots, flowers, seeds, resin, root barks are used in several activities especially for spiritual activities. In several parts of the world herbs are used to honour their kings showing it as a symbol of luck. Now after finding the role of herbs lots of consumers started the plantation of tulsi in their homes. Consumers will also come across varied usages of herbs like in pest control mint, spearmint, peppermint, pennyroyal all forms are used. In many countries different kinds of herbs are used to keep flies, mice, ants and flees away from homes and offices. So it is very important for the users to visit online shops to know more about herbs before making its usage.



Benefits of Colon Cleansing For a Long Life

Life span of the human is hundred years but sixty percentages of people died with in short life span due to diseases. Excessive toxins in the body are root cause for all diseases in the body and sometimes it turns in to life threaten diseases. Most of the people not realized the essentialness of colon cleansing to lead long life. This is the time to analysis about the colon cleansing and its advantages.

Colon cleansing is indispensable because the life style of peoples in this modern world. Irregular food habits, in taken of chunky foods routinely, not following proper timing for eating this all finally blocks the colon system of the body which in turn instead of separating the body wastage the system starts to consume the wastage, this basic mechanism of the body is root cause for all diseases of human

Colon system needs cleansing when its functioning is abnormal because of the blocked wastages of the body. This is the stage where the poisonous toxins mixed back into the systems of the body. Hence cleansing is vital for the body to absorb necessary nutrients. The following are the diseases caused by improper functioning of colon system.

o Chronic fatigue
o Acid reflux (GERD)
o Irritable bowel syndrome
o Bloating
o Constipation
o Skin and hair problems

So cleaning the colon system is the only way to get rid of harmful diseases or by micro flora improvements in the intestine through introducing the good bacteria in the digestive system.

Clean colon can function properly over all good health is the result of colon cleansing. Colon cleansing is essential for all humans once in a year. The other benefits of colon cleansing is controlling the occurrence of diarrhea and constipation, improves the immune system of the body, the other surprising benefit of colon cleansing is weight loss, The transit time of digestion and consumption is regularized, Vitamins and other nutrients from foods are easily absorbed by the body.

Many procedures are followed to clean the colon system using herbs, colon products, medicines and home remedies. Any of the procedure should be compulsory followed once in year for the healthy life. The following are the additional benefits of colon cleansing

o Healthy skin
o Energy level augmented
o High concentration
o Good health condition

Colon should be cleaned before cleaning the other system because unless cleaning the colon no system can function proper again it starts to consume the wastage from the colon after getting clean. So colon cleaning is the first foremost step for the good health of the body.

Human life is only once and it's a responsible of an individual to preserve the health to lead long life in this earth. Prevention is better than cure, in order to prevent the body from various diseases colon cleansing is very important to each human. Follow healthy food habits to avoid the improper functioning of digestive system. Good condition of the colon system extends the life span of normal human being.



How Important Is Health and Fitness?

Health and fitness

In every human life health and fitness is a very important thing. It is like one of the parts of a human life. A human must follow the rules of it regularly. It is also a good way to find happiness in life. There are many ways to gain health and fitness.

Firstly, by taking those foods which contain vitamins, nutrition, minerals. Secondly, by getting sound sleep of minimum eight hours. Lastly, through taking exercise like jogging or playing many kinds of sports. A human body which is unhealthy and unfit can be attacked by many diseases. And it is also very dangerous. Now a days it has become an increasing priority for people all over the world. As medical science continues to point to the indisputable benefits of regular exercise and managing a healthy diet, many people have begun instituting daily routines designed to make them feel healthier and help themselves to live longer. Today's world is the most competitive and toughest one; each and every individual hardly finds enough time to keep themselves fit by way of physical exercise or by using sophisticated modern health equipments that may be supportive to keep their body healthier.

Today's extensive hard work from dawn to dusk that may cause severe mental stress, weakness, sickness and various organic problems that may also lead de-generative disease like Coronary Heart Disease, Diabetes, Cervical Spondiolitise, Insomnia and or so many other fatal diseases. There are so many modern handy equipments in the space using extensively by the people to keep fit themselves, but ultimately, such equipments found miserable in the long run. People get tired of by using all such unorthodox and miserable products. There are many health and fitness products which are useful to stay healthy and fit. They are- dumbbells, weight plates, EZ curl bar, tricep bar, hyper extension bench, preacher bench, the arm blaster, chin up bar, benches etc. Dumbbell exercises are performed with dumbbell in each hand. Weight plates range from 2.5 lbs to 100 lbs.

They are usually iron. The EZ curl bar is designed for working the bicep and tricep. The hyper extension bench is used for working in lower back, hamstring, and glute muscels. The preacher bench is designed for working the biceps. The arm blaster works similar to preacher bench by eliminating body momentum and allows you to isolate the biceps. The chin up bar is a iron bar that is either bolted to the wall or part of a exercise machine. Chin ups are great for working the back, biceps and forearms. The most common equipment in any gym is the bench. There are three types of benches flat, incline and decline. Some benches are adjustable. They can be adjusted either flat, incline or decline. Some benches have racks on one end for holding a barbell. While other benches do not have any racks.



Healthy Behaviors

"Health is wealth" is a famous saying. Humans undergo many challenges in whole life, most of them relevant to health issues. Health issues caused by different factors among them are accidental and by nature. Accidental issues occur due to human or non human factors, while taking the precautionary measures in the workplace keep human safe from non human factors. Non human factors are such which occurs due to natural disasters e.g Storms, floods, and earthquakes.

In current technology era every one involves in tight schedule and routines and don't have much time to take care of him/her self properly. Therefore health disorders remain an ordinary issue. Keeping in view of one's daily way of life shows how much health conscious attitude one adopts.

Health could be maintained by taking balance diet and regular exercise. Balance diets means to get enough calories required for body as well essential elements by which the age factor can be reduced. Health consciousness is very basic for everyone. As far as the exercise routine concerns normally 3-4 hours necessary to keep the body muscles active.

Walking is also a complete exercise and jogging make the body active more. In morning when oxygen is much in air, taking exercise makes body healthy and muscles active. Blood flows whole body which strengthens muscles, metabolism in blood take oxygen (O2) cells to each body part that generates energy and muscles becomes lively.

Water is the main element of living being, 60% of the human body is water, brain has 70% water, and lungs contain 90% water. Waterborne diseases are diarrhea, typhoid, cholera and parasite infections all these disease caused by contaminated water. Over 880 million peoples worldwide do not have access to pure drinking water. Normally water intake for human being is 2.5 liter it did vary with age, sex and weight of human body. Traces of contamination also found in the tap water so try avoid drinking tap water, Health depends on the water intake and quality of water, while considering healthy behavior water should be of good quality and enough to fulfill ones daily requirements.

Taking in view of necessary steps to get healthy lifestyle while avoiding tragic factors one must consider to get optimum results in routine task. All this is possible adapting the points discussed in the lastly paragraphs which are;

• Balance diet
• Regular exercise
• Fresh air availability
• Pure drinking water

It is not necessary that healthy peoples belongs to specific region, but communally contains a set of matching characteristics. They enjoy professions and don't get tired while working in same routine and working hours. Love profession stimulates energy level and consistency remains bottom line for the whole scenario.

Bad habits of smoking, alcohol and late night sleeping are the root cause that results in obesity, heart failures, diabetes, and anxiety. These habits should be avoided to take a longer lifespan for human beings. Mostly smokers and alcohol addicts are habitual and can't deny to this. Alcoholism creates a non healthy behavior that shows bad results like quarreling all time in the department and with coworkers, it do harm to its family life that includes wife, children and siblings. The alcohol control policies are marked while in the organization facing such problems and other measures taken to prohibit alcohol and smoking depends on the family members and siblings. Alcohols and smoking is prohibited under teen age and if found guilty punish and fined also noticed to parents or guardians. Driving after taking alcohol caused accidents because the toxicity makes the nervous system unconsciousness.

Prevention and treatment of addicted could be carried out by many ways also taking appropriate steps like engaging a doctor or a psychiatric consultant that make necessary steps to stop chain smoking and drinking plenty of alcohols.

Taking meals of large calories resulted in obesity and indigestion which if not cure results very harmful affects to human life, it purely thicken the blood stream and caused clotting in the blood or brain tumors finally.



How to Live a Healthy Life in Our Modern Society

How to live a healthy life in modern day suburbia or in the heart of the city can at times be challenging. The key lies within yourself and your attitude towards the elements that surround you. Sadly we cannot turn the clock back to a time when foods did not contain additives, colourants and flavourants, or to when humanity did not pollute our rivers with waste, but thankfully we still have the freedom to choose how we live in this modern age.

To ensure that you are not introducing toxins into your system, the only way how to live a healthy life is to ensure that all your fruits and vegetables are organic in origin and free from pesticides and chemicals. Be aware! Read food labels and you'll see that most products list their ingredients.

Drink plenty of water! If you can get it, choose water that has been through a reverse osmosis process that purifies it and leeches out all toxins. Eat plenty of fruit and vegetables and stay away from heavily fried and rich foods that contain lots of trans fats. Avoid products that contain a lot of sugar and white flour.

Here comes that dirty eight letter word - exercise. The human body was designed to move and exercise doesn't have to be an unpleasant chore. No need to spend hours in the overcrowded gym down the road pumping iron. Exercise can be fun and exhilarating. Join a walking group and make new friends, learn a new skill and start windsurfing lessons or take your four-legged friend for a daily walk in the park.

Sleep is another very obvious but much ignored part of how to live a healthy life. The human body needs a minimum of eight hours of sleep a night to function properly. Today's modern lifestyle is not really conducive to restful sleep, with many people having television sets in their bedrooms and having such entertainments as video games and Internet access which can keep the average person preoccupied for hours. So, how to live a healthy life is really quite simple. Drink plenty of water, eat lots of fresh vegetables and fruit, get enough exercise and reward yourself with restful sleep.



Healthy Tips to Extend Your Life

Many people mistakenly believe that the process of aging is normal and inevitable. Forward thinking researchers now believe the process of aging is a disease process which can be thwarted through dietary calorie restriction, appropriate exercise, stress-reduction and controlling post meal blood sugar levels. While genetics does play a role in the aging process, we can modify the effects through lifestyle modification and ensure our senior years are healthy, vibrant and disease free.

Processed Foods Lead to Disease

Cutting edge scientists are beginning to believe that the human body has a normal life span of nearly 120 years. Presently life expectancy is around 80 years, with many living their latter years in declining health. By adopting a diet consisting in large part of processed and refined foods and avoiding exercise, we are actually taking years away from our biological potential.

Eating foods which have been stripped of nutrition for years and decades causes our cellular metabolism to decline. The body can amazingly compensate for a period of time, but eventually it will take its toll. Further, we live in an environment which continually subjects us to increasing pollutants, electro-magnetic radiation and a host of synthesized chemicals which we absorb from cleaning and beauty products. We rely on pharmaceuticals to keep us healthy, but in most cases these drugs only add to the assault placed on our body.

Calorie Restriction Proven to Extend Life

Research which began back in the 1930's has demonstrated that a dietary lifestyle known as caloric restriction can extend healthy lifespan in mammals, and indications are that it does the same in humans. By reducing the amount of calories consumed by 25% we cause the body to revert to a 'starvation survival' mode, where our evolutionary ancestors would have been able to survive a famine when food was scarce.

We don't have that problem today, but our genetics are still wired to react to calorie reduction by setting in place a very complex chain of molecular reactions which put the brakes on heart disease, cancer proliferation, dementia, and many of the diseases we associate with aging. A simple 25% reduction in calories and the associated weight loss over a period of two years has been shown to directly lead to a reduction in arterial plaque and heart disease risk.

Monitor Blood Sugar to Avert Diabetes

We typically don't think about what happens at the cellular level and in our blood every time we eat a meal. The body is a very efficient machine, breaking down every food item into the vitamins, minerals, proteins and fats which are made available for energy and metabolism. The Standard American Diet (SAD) of highly refined carbohydrates and trans fats floods the blood with these breakdown products, overwhelming our capacity to mop up the excess glucose and lipids which hit the blood. This is known as post-prandial disorder, and when allowed to continue meal after meal directly leads to disease which will shorten our life.

High post meal blood sugar is one of the most damaging and controllable conditions.
By regularly using a simple and inexpensive blood glucose meter, we can monitor and regulate the blood glucose surges after meals. Check your blood sugar readings one and two hours after eating, and ensure that the readings are not over 140 mg/dl and 120 mg/dl respectively. Extensive data indicates that extended blood glucose readings over 140 mg/dl lead to death of the pancreatic beta cells which produce insulin, and once gone they do not regenerate. Eventually this leads to diabetes and dramatically increased risk of heart disease and many cancers.

Elevated Blood Pressure Doubles Risk of Heart Attack

Blood pressure has been called the 'silent killer' for a very good reason. Elevated readings as small as 20 (mm Hg) over the optimal reading of 115/75 are associated with a doubled risk of heart attack. Many people of all ages are walking around with elevated blood pressure which act as a ticking bomb waiting to explode in their arteries. Higher pressure in the arteries causes small cracks of the inner lining of the vessels which the body expediently fills with a foamy substance called plaque.

This creates an increased burden for the heart and results in higher blood pressure. Interestingly, a recent study found that lowering blood pressure by commonly prescribed pharmaceuticals did not equate to lowered risk of future disease. Following a natural, non-refined diet with adequate exercise and stress reduction works far better than any drug at reducing and virtually eliminating heart disease risk.

It is possible to avoid many of the common ailments which claim the lives of so many Americans and extend your natural life cycle by following several critical modification tips. Calorie Restriction, Blood Glucose and Blood Pressure Monitoring are key lifestyle tenants which when started early enough, have been proven to maximize the limits of your healthy later years. While we don't know exactly how long the average human life can be extended by using these techniques, we do know that living a disease free existence is a significant benefit.

Traditional Chinese View Of A Healthy Lifestyle

What is the Culture of a Healthy Lifestyle?

The culture of a healthy lifestyle has been an inseparable aspect of Chinese life for thousands of years. This culture finds it roots in the experience and profound levels of understanding that exist in Chinese philosophy and Chinese medical ideals surrounding the human body.

The basis of Chinese Health is seen as a systematic approach to the study of the relationship between humanity and nature, stressing the different systems that exist in the body and the balance necessary to maintain healthy bodily functions.

In Chinese thought there is also the important aspect of recognizing disease or discomfort through the balance or imbalance of "Qi" (pr. Chee), which can be understood as "Life Energy". There are two kinds of Qi, healthy Qi or Zheng (pr. jung) Qi, and harmful Qi or Xie (pr. she-ay) Qi; Zheng Qi can be related to a healthy immune system and is something that exists within; Xie Qi can be related to the causes of illness and discomfort and exists without. With this, comes the important idea of preventive medicine or "stopping illness before its onset".

In Chinese Health Culture one important aspect to preserving health is through the balance and connectivity of the mind, spirit, and body. This idea, when taken one step further, opens us up to recognize the rich relationship between the universe and humankind.

The Holistic

Thousands of years ago, in ancient China, people had already begun to notice the effects and reactions brought about on the human body from outside influences; this was the beginning of a holistic viewpoint to health. At this time, the ancients of China had commenced on the long road of gathering the secrets to a healthy life whereby developing the basis of the Culture of a Healthy Lifestyle. The Chinese had already begun moving toward a structured holistic view of the relationship between human life and the universe.

The Yellow Emperor, or "Huang Di", is the one man in Ancient China who is renowned as a man of many inventions and the father of health culture. He was a humble and studious man and invented many useful tools which were very advanced for his day and age. Legend has it that Huang Di invented a compass driven cart which played a large role in the unity of two indigenous tribes, which were to later become the ancestors of the Chinese people. After many years and with the help of numerous scholars, Huang Di completed the first work in Chinese health culture.

This work is based on the ideals of the relationship between humankind and the universe as a whole. It is presented from the point-of-view of "Yin Yang" (pr. Yeen Yahng), the all encompassing Chinese theory of universal balance, and Wu Xing (pr. Woo Shing), the interaction between five natural elements to create balance, these two ideals constitute the tools used in the achievement of good health in Chinese thought. By mapping out the different organs in the human body and drawing up the channels of Qi, Huang Di created a work of health concepts that has been used and improved on for thousands of years.

In order to best understand the notions behind Chinese health culture we must first begin by understanding the effects of nature on human health. The best place to start is by understanding the concepts of Yin Yang and Wu Xing.

The World According to Yin Yang

Yin Yang describes how the Ancient Chinese viewed the world as containing a perfect balance of opposing forces. They believed that the unification of opposites was the law of change in all things. Chinese traditional health culture sees Yin Yang as a basic aspect of life energy movement, when Yin Yang is in balance the body is healthy.

It is worthy to point out here the idea of balance in Chinese thought. Balance, in this context, should not be confused with the idea of balance in the West. The balance that is expressed here is sometimes achieved through contradiction and not through harmony. This achievement of balance in nature, and even in human health, is through opposing forces, which may be in a state of repose.

In today's world, and because of the onslaught of poor habits and environmental hazards, we are being bombarded with the causes of illness and discomfort, our health is being incessantly challenged. The Chinese Culture of a Healthy Lifestyle can lead us to a resource of knowledge that can teach us how to maintain health of spirit, mind, and body.

The Idea of Yin Yang

The earliest concept of Yin Yang held a balance between abstract and concrete, take for example the sun; areas that receive sunlight would be considered as "Yang"; areas which received no sunlight, or shady areas, would be considered as "Yin". Later, over time, other phenomena were recognized such as; Summer versus winter, up versus down, left versus right, inside versus outside, and action versus rest.

When the classic philosophers contemplated natural phenomenon they would explain it from the concept of Yin Yang. They perceived all aspects of nature as existing within opposing forces, positive and negative, life and death.

The Divisions of Yin Yang

Scholars of Yin Yang believed that the world is a material whole resulting from the unification of the opposing forces of Yin Yang. Yin Yang represents the interaction and unification of opposing properties. At the same time, the properties of Yin Yang in physical phenomena are also divisible, for instance; daytime as Yang, and nighttime as Yin. When speaking of the divisions of day and night, morning is considered to be 'Yang within Yang', afternoon is 'Yin within Yang', from midnight to three in the morning is 'Yin within Yin', and from three to six in the morning is 'Yang within Yin'.

It is important to realize that there are divisions of Yin and Yang within Yin Yang that go on endlessly. Thus, we can see that all phenomena, physical and non-physical, within the universe can be categorized within Yin Yang. In addition, just as we saw the divisions of time, all things within one category of Yin or Yang can be sub-categorized into finer divisions of Yin and Yang. This occurrence is widely visible in all of nature.

The Properties of Yin Yang

In most instances, outward or upward motion or action, warmth and heat, light and illumination are all features of Yang, whereas inward or downward motion or action, chill or cold, and darkness are all features of Yin.

When speaking from the point of view of a healthy lifestyle, if the human body exhibits the properties of action or motion, warmth, excitement, or anything similar, it is considered to belong to the category of Yang. However, if the properties of restriction, moisture, or restraint are present they belong to the category of Yin. (Note: these properties should be understood abstractly.)

It is important to note that the ideals of Yin Yang can only be applied to things with common properties, things that have a common connection, or one object which has two aspects. If the things in consideration do not have a common connection or cannot be viewed as a pair then the ideals of Yin Yang cannot apply.

Applications of Yin Yang

The physical functions of the human body

In the realm of Yin Yang, it is considered that the result of balance, or harmony, between the two opposing forces is achieved through normal daily life activity. When speaking of physical versus energy forces, physical would be categorized as Yin and energy as Yang, in the aspect of Yin Yang these two are considered as opposing forces.

Normal human life activity is considered to be the foundation of physical matter, without physical activity there would be no resulting energy, therefore no resulting physical material which promotes a continuous metabolic process. If there is a division of Yin Yang or if Yin Yang cannot maintain unification, it must result in the termination of life.

In the Chinese classic "Su Wen" it is written, "If a human being is able to achieve balance in Yin Yang, the body will be strong and healthy, the mind will be calm and peaceful, however if there is a separation of Yin Yang the person will die."

The Body and Illness

Within the human body and its surroundings, physical and physical, energy and energy, and physical and energy must all maintain balance; they must all maintain a Yin Yang balance. This is the basis of health and the way to maintaining healthy physical activity.

The forces of Yin Yang are interdependent; they sustain and restrict, increase and decrease. Consequently, when Yin Yang is out of balance illness is present.

The occurrence of illness is related to the aspects of healthy and harmful Qi. Healthy Qi refers to the whole structure and functions of the body, including the defenses that the body has against illness; the immune system. Harmful Qi, or Xie Qi, refers to any factor which causes illness. The properties of healthy Qi and harmful Qi can also be categorized by Yin Yang. Healthy Qi is divided into Yin Qi and Yang Qi; harmful Qi is divided into Yin Xie and Yang Xie.

The process of illness is the struggle between Zheng Qi and Xie Qi, or healthy and harmful Qi. The result is an imbalance of Yin Yang where either Yin or Yang may be in excess or deficient. No matter how complex the illness, the complexity does not go beyond the excess or deficiency of Yin or Yang. Therefore, if one desires to avoid illness and remain in good health, they must use all possible ways to maintain balance of Yin Yang, whereby reaching the highest level of a Healthy Lifestyle.

What is Yin Yang Balance?

All phenomena in nature are a result of the unity and balance of Yin Yang. The human body not only needs to maintain a balance of Yin Yang within, it must also adapt to the Yin Yang of the environment it finds its self in. The physical realm, just like the human body, is in constant motion and change. The physical body is constantly adjusting and adapting to its surroundings. The vital movements within the body must sense the supporting and restraining effects of its surroundings; weather, altitude, and seasonal changes, which will have direct influence on the bodily organ movements and functions. If the body is able to make the correct adjustments to its surroundings and adapt correctly, it will remain in good health. However, if the changes in the surroundings overpower the body's ability to adapt, or if the body is too feeble or weak, the ability to adjust correctly is lost and there will exist an imbalance in Yin Yang which will lead to illness. It is important to gain a good grasp of the laws of natural change to achieve the needed overall unity and balance that will lead to overall health.

The Law of Balance between Heaven and Man

"Heaven" refers to the natural environment; "Man" refers to the human body. The idea behind the Balance between Heaven and Man expresses the strong connection that exists between nature and humanity. All changes and movements of nature will have some effect, direct or indirect, on the human body.

If, during the movements of the seasons, there occurs uncommon weather phenomenon; cold during spring, warmth during winter, a long drought, or heavy rains, they will all have some effect on the human body. The only way for the body to maintain good health is by adapting to the changes in its natural surroundings.

Thus, the ancients used the supportive and restrictive, or positive and negative, principles of Yin Yang to represent and explain natural surroundings and climate changes. Whereby, pointing out the changes of Yin Yang and the changes of the seasons as being the basic principle in the adaptation process; if a person desires health and longevity it is important to adhere to these principles of nature.

The World According to Wu Xing

The Wu Xing, or Five Elements, are; metal, wood, water, fire, and soil.

The ideals embodied in Wu Xing, or the Five Elements, explain the structure of the world. In China, Wu Xing, much like its counterpart Yin Yang, has made a large contribution in the study of a Healthy Lifestyle.

The main idea behind Wu Xing is not so simple as to say that all things can be divided into five separate categories. Rather, the Five Elements exist within the laws of mutual support, and restraint, and are used to explain the relations between complex systems and material objects. It is on this basis that the idea of completeness and a unified self adjustment is expressed. Through the adjustment of Wu Xing the functions of the body are strengthened, allowing individual functions to maintain or recover normal conditions, the result is the healthy lifestyle goal of well-being and longevity.

The Idea of Wu Xing

Wu Xing is a concept of the motion of five specific basic elements and seen as an extension of Yin Yang. The ancients conceptualized the Wu Xing of life motion as "metal, wood, water, fire, and soil", five basic elements. Within the natural world, these five elements have different kinds of unions, which after close observation they discovered the mutual associations of "support and restriction", which they continued to develop and expand on. They noticed how the elements were interrelated through continual support and restriction causing them to achieve and maintain balance.

The Properties of the Five Elements

Wood: The ancients saw the growth pattern of trees as upward and outward with branches growing curved and straight. They recognized them as displaying the usage and properties of growth and upward expansion.

Fire: The ancients saw fire as having the characteristics of heat and rising motion. They recognized this as the usage and properties of heat and ascension.

Soil: The ancients saw soil as having the usages of sowing, cultivating and harvesting. Therefore they recognized it as being an element of growth, able to bear weight, and able to receive. As in the sayings; "All things return to the earth", and "the earth is the mother of all things".

Metal: The ancients recognized metal as having the properties and usages of purity, and restraint.

Water: The ancients recognized water as having the properties and usages of moisture, cold, and downward motion.

Life Experience and personal study



Health For the Soul and Spirit

The human being is essentially a spirit being, having a soul and living inside a body. Little has been known about the human body but the human soul and spirit are like no go zones. For humanity to assert total health in the 21st century, humanity must muster the courage to go beyond the average. Breaking new grounds, championing new ideas and venturing into the unknown.

No one can discover new lands without leaving the shore. Our shallow efforts and knowledge cannot guarantee our triumph over sicknesses and diseases. Venturing into the unknown for the truism of human existence and functionality is the way forward to human triumph over sicknesses and diseases. We are going to venture into the science of the human soul in order to acquire insight on health.

The human soul is an invisible dimension of the human being; though tangible; invisible in the sense that, it cannot be accessed through any physical means. This invisible nature of the human soul is what has contributed to its neglect by scholars. Though the human soul is physically un-reached, its influence and impact on human functionality cannot be overemphasized.

The human soul principally embodies the human mind, will and emotions. Thus, the health of the soul is determined by the condition of the human mind, will and emotions which are the constituents of the human soul. We have to consider the constituents of the human soul and their impact on health.

Human mind: The human mind is the largest component of the human soul. From my mental laboratory, I consider the human mind to be the real heart of the human being. Its centrality in the human life permits it to function as the regulator of the human physical and supernatural operations. Minus the human mind, both the human spirit and body will lack sight and light.

The mind is the central control counter where exchange between the body and spirit takes place. It has four functions or faculties: the reasoning, thinking, creative and imaginative faculties. With respect to health, the human mind needs to be sound, having its four faculties in relative soundness and functionality. This condition permits the mind to impart the human intellect with positive influences which are transferred to the human brain for coordination to affect body condition.

For the mind to have soundness, it must be exposed to positive and quality influences. Such influences can be in the form of positive and quality information or positive and quality music. Most individuals are having unsound minds and sick bodies because of the kind of information and music they exposed their minds to. The world is more corrupt today than in any other time in history. A lot of negativity beam through the media and other communication mediums.

Information and music which only pervert the mind with thoughts of immorality, drugs, violence, suicide and death etc. With such thoughts, the positive functions of the mind are hampered; leading to disequilibrium in the relative functioning of the body, soul and spirit. Such disequilibrium creates health conditions which are completely unexplainable by medical sciences. A perverted mind creates an unhealthy soul which goes a long way to affecting the body health condition.

The human mind is naturally imbued with positive instincts which are allergic to negative influences. When exposed to negative influences, the human mind immediately shrinks inwardly, creating an internal unhealthy mental state

This state leaves the human being vulnerable.

Human will: Humans are the only species in existence with a soul which possesses the will. The human will is the wheel of the human life. Its function permits humans to determine their destiny; whether sickness or health, failure or success, prosperity or poverty, death and life.

The human will is intended to reinforce the human spirit, soul and body. It is to provide the tenacity needed for humans to decide what they want, why, how, and when. No physical condition can withstand the might of the human will. The human will when exercised in its fullest efficacy and potency, has the capability to make impossibility possible, this confirms what a great mind once said "when there is a will there is a way." For health to be possible, the human being needs the will to be healthy. Without a strong will, a human being will be a victim of all external factors.

The human will can wheel the human body and spirit to the right direction. For this to be possible, the will must be empowered by the knowledge of the truth. This is the knowledge which unveils the truism of human supremacy over external factors. Such truth can be accessed in the universal lab manual (the divine constitution).

When a human being becomes conscious of the truth about his supremacy and ability to violate the laws of nature, the human being by his will becomes strong and resolute against unpleasant external factors. In such a moment, powerful stimulus are projected from the realms of the human soul to the human spirit and body, reinforcing and empowering human defense mechanism against any prevailing external condition.

Many who are dying today of sicknesses and diseases, are dying for their lack of will to live. It is said in the universal lab manual "If you are willing and obedient you shall eat the good of the land." The good of the land speaks of the pleasantness which can be attracted when our human will is released in its full efficacy and potency. The human will can break any barrier, it can violate the laws of nature to establish its counsel. The human will makes the human being a participant in life and destiny. When the human will is weak the human being becomes vulnerable to any physical assault. When we talk of resistance, persistence, insistence; these are all effects of the human will. The human will generates resistance, persistence and insistence which are all vital requirements for human survival.

For so long, humans have accepted so many negativities as a sort of human fate. Some of these can be changed if humanity will have the will to change them. No condition is permanent if the human will is put to work. What one tolerates cannot change. What one refuses to tolerate must change. The human will makes this possible. Show me anyone who has made it through tough situations and circumstances; I will show you someone with a will power. Empower your life by empowering your will.

Human emotions: The human emotion is that area of the human soul responsible for the expression of human feelings with respect to different situations and circumstances. Human emotions may be positive or negative. While positive emotions contribute to the quality of the human soul and the general health condition of a human being; negative emotions affect the soul condition and the general health situation of a human being negatively. Positive emotions are as follows; emotions of love, joy, peace, satisfaction, gratitude and gratefulness, etc. Negative emotions are emotions of hate, sorrow, agitations, dissatisfaction, disappointment, anger, etc.

Harboring negative emotions for a long time creates tension within the human soul. This tension is communicated to the human brain through the intellect, leading to a change in the dynamics of the body operation. Diseases like high blood pressure are caused by negative emotions like anger, bitterness and sorrow etc. Expressing positive emotions helps in enhancing our health condition. It has been proven that joyful people recover faster than those who are sad, depressed and disgusted. That's why the universal lab manual instructs us to be joyful irrespective of the situation. For a merry heart does well as medicine.

For an individual to build a stable emotion, such must invest to acquire quality knowledge with respect to crises management. Sometimes quality music can be helpful and also the services of a good counselor.

Health habits for the soul: The health of our soul like our body equally depends on our attitudes and actions, though the health habits for the soul are different from those of our body. The human soul being a non physical dimension of the human being requires a more diligent attention. Health habit for the soul involves the following;

Quality time to acquire quality information on human existence and functionality is an important health habit for the soul. Information on human existence and functionality is to the soul as food is to the body. Quality time to sing and to equally listen to soul touching music on a daily bases is equally a health habit for the soul. Music to the soul is as water to the body.

The combination of quality knowledge on human existence and functionality and quality music forms the core health habits of the soul.

The human spirit: The human spirit is the 'real estate' of man, containing secret information about each human being; information which can only be known by each individual as consciousness. The human spirit is the seat of human potential, consciousness and life. The human body dies immediately in the absence of the human spirit.

The human spirit is a personality with full consciousness. Its soundness is imperative to the general health condition of the human being. For the human spirit to be sound, it must be supernaturally connected to the universal source of existence and life for continuous infusion of energy and vitality. When the human spirit lacks this connection, it shrinks and dies gradually, depriving the human being of divine energy and life.

It is virtually impossible for the human being to enjoy absolute soundness without divine energy and vitality which stems from within the human spirit. Divine energy and life is only possible when the human spirit is connected to the universal absolute source of life and existence. This is an absolute need for every human being.

We are not on earth as a result of a universal accident; we owe our existence to a higher power. As we connect with our source of existence, which is perfect divine life, health and strength, we attract to our consciousness these divine virtues capable of influencing our whole being. This is the greatest breakthrough humans need; attracting divinity into our humanity.

Until our humanity becomes infused with divinity, we can't talk of real freedom from sicknesses and diseases. Divine life and energy is the highest potent force which can empower humanity to transcend all what challenges us in the natural with respect to our health.

Health habits for the spirit: The human spirit just as our soul and body depends on our actions for its health. The health habits for the spirit are quite different from those of our body and soul. The health habits of the spirit are as follows: sanctity, meditation.

Sanctity: There is relativity between our human life style and the health of our human spirit. Our human spirit by nature is full of all goodness, righteousness and purity. We were to reflect the virtues of our human spirit in our day to day life. When human life style fails to correspond with the virtues and values of the human spirit, there will be a negative reaction within the human spirit. This reaction is a state described as the grieving of the spirit.

The grieving of the spirit creates an unhealthy spirit, which may go a long way to affect the human being in his soul and body. For a human being to have a healthy spirit, such must practice sanctity. Most of what humanity is suffering from today is due to the evil life style of individuals. As humanity grows in evil and negativity, humanity increases unhealthiness.

There is no health to those who violate the moral and righteous demands of life. Those who care about the health of their spirit must accept sanctity as a reasonable service to oneself. What we sow is what we will reap. If we sow evil and unrighteousness, we should be ready to reap the fruits of an unhealthy spirit.

Meditation: A human being is a mixture of humanity and divinity. The divinity in humans can only be accessed through meditation. The universal source of life and existence resides in the human spirit as consciousness. This consciousness is the sum total of all health, perfection, strength, power, wisdom, etc. The question is, if the universal source of life and existence resides in humans as health, perfection, strength, power, and wisdom. Why are humans sick, weak and victimized? This is where health habits for the spirit come in.

Humans are dying in their misery while the source of all life and health lies dormant within them as a result of ignorance. With meditation, humans can reach down and tap from within their being, life, health and strength for every day's challenge etc.What is meditation? These is a moment of serenity and focus which permits humans access inspiration, health, strength, etc. from the universal source of life and existence which lies within humans as consciousness. Meditation is abused when it is reduced to satisfying religious rituals and ceremonies.

Meditation should permit humanity tap from the divine within them. Anything out of this is just an aimless and useless ritual. Meditation is a health habit for the spirit because it allows humans to have communion with the source of life within for empowerment.

NB: Sanctity comes before meditation. Meditation begins with a silent reflection and deep thoughtfulness on the universal source of life and existence, his providence toward all his creation. This should equally be accompanied with words of gratefulness and thanksgiving which permit our mental consciousness to open up to our human spirit from where we can access divine consciousness.

When the above is carried out with all seriousness, the human being receives the confidence to make petitions and a supplication as one is disposed, accessing the divine into our humanity.

When meditation becomes a habit, it assists to empower the human spirit, which goes a long way to influence the human being in his entirety. Meditation is also possible with the aid of the universal lab manual, the divine constitution.This is possible by reading through it, asserting every word, phrase and sentence, appropriating it into our inner self through deep thoughtfulness, belief and vocal confession. The words and stories found in the divine constitution are inspired to lift up our spirits and to equally empower our souls and bodies.

Sometimes the psalms could be a good point to start from. There is so much to also learn about meditation from the lives of great saints. Some of them lived on earth for several hundreds of years in total health. They knew what we don't know. The difference between two individuals is in their knowledge and understanding.

Health: One Of the Most Important Factor In Human's Life

One of the most critical factoring human's lives is their "Health". If the person is unhealthy, there's nothing much that he could do to be productive in life. Your actions as limited since you will have a lot of things which you are prohibited to do. Like for example if you have asthma, you are allowed to be exposing in too much dust or anything that could trigger your asthma. You need to take extra precautions so you won't suffer from asthma attack. Keeping ourselves healthy could be very challenging in some people especially those people who have passion in eating. The food that we eat today is not that safe anymore since manufacturers uses chemicals to grow them. But there is always something could keep us healthy. Here are some of those:

Regular Exercise: we need to do exercise to keep or body fit and healthy, not just a simple exercise but a regular exercise. Everybody could do exercise but there are only few people who could keep up with regular exercise since most of us are lazy to do it. Doing regular exercise could really contribute a lot with regards to our health. This could make us active, relax, and attentive at the same time. You could buy those exercise equipments that you can use for your exercise, like dumbbells, treadmills, stationary bikes and so on.

Proper Diet: The food that we eat is one of the causes of our sickness. If we love to eat meat and fatty foods, then don't be surprise if in the future you will suffer from hypertension, or kidney disorders, and other dangerous diseases. That's why if you want to be and stay healthy, you need to choose what you eat. You need to eat nutritious food like fruits and vegetables. Try to eat a lot of fruits and vegetables and you will have lesser problems with regards to your health.

Take Vitamins: this could be optional but since the food that we eat nowadays are not that safe and nutritious, vitamins have required especially to those people who always feel weak. Vitamins could help you become energized and also boost up your immune system so you won't get easily sick.

Aside from these three, there are also other important factors that you need to know with regards to keeping us healthy. Not only the food that we eat but also our lifestyle could be one of the factors.



Increase Your Human Growth Hormones With Healthy Life Habits

Human Growth hormone is a water-soluble hormone comprised of a amino acids that introduce a series of chemical reactions to change the cell's metabolism also known as a peptide hormone. It primarily promotes tissue growth and repair. Human Growth Hormone is produced by the pituitary gland and is active in most people when they are children up to young adults. During this period it is responsible for natural and rapid growth. Human Growth Hormone acts on the liver, producing IGF-1( insulin like growth factor -I). Together IGF-1 and GH helps regulate metabolism and maintain normal brain and cardiac function.

Human Growth Hormone secrets in short burst naturally. However, as we age, the amount of secretion decreases. This reduction in Growth Hormone secretion directly corresponds to the increase in age related issues such as reduced muscle mass, reduced bone density, mental acuity, sleep disorders, fatty weight gain.

Studies have shown however that there are ways to increase the secretion of HGH by making certain lifestyle changes.

Fat

Fat stored in the abdominal area impairs the secretion of HGH. If you lose body fat and keep it off, this will improve your bodies secretion of HGH.

Insulin

Insulin is a major direct HGH blocker. Certain foods when eaten cause insulin spikes that cause the blockage of HGH. If you avoid these foods your HGH secretion can be increased. Foods such as white bread and sugar, white rice, potato chips, cookies, soda, and processed fruit juices Replace those foods with nutrient and fiber-rich beans, whole fruits, vegetables, and nuts, and realize less insulin spikes, higher HGH secretions, weight reduction and more regular bowl movement.

Sleep

The vast majority of HGH secretion occurs at night during deep sleep. Poor quality sleep can substantially reduce HGH secretion. Improve the quality of your sleep by keeping regular bedtime and wake up time, keep light and noise away from your sleep area, and avoid alcohol and caffeine 4 hours before bedtime.

Meal Planning

Amino acids found in protein help HGH secretions. A high protein but low carbohydrate snack before bedtime will minimize insulin release and supply the amino acids to your body to help HGH secretion at night while you sleep.

Exercise

Exercise is good for increasing your HGH secretions. So just being active, can help your HGH secretions, but the type of exercise and the duration and intensity can optimize the benefit you get.

The effect of a healthy lifestyle is twofold, first it will improve your natural secretion of HGH, and secondly affect you physically and mentally from an anti aging perspective.



How To Connect Prana Energy to the Human Body

It is essential for human life as Its energy flows from the nostrils to the level of the heart. Clean air is vital for health however, on its own air, is not the decisive factor in good health. As it is known many been sick of healthy depends on every individual as well as the quality of life those individuals live. Some people are prone to illness, even though they are frequently out in the fresh air, and on the other hand, people who live in rooms or suburbs with relatively poor air quality remain healthy.

Once the connection between health and prana energy is made, it can be follower by the practice of breathing exercises and other yoga practices to increase the flow of this energy in a dramatic way to improve good health. To match up this wealth of health with mental and psychological health one most also learn and practice good and positive thoughts to induce a self healing motivation in the body and brain.

The practice of good and positive thinking is good not just for self purposes but can also be helpful to connect one self with the universe and nature. Self destructive thinking can considerably bring down health and emotional stability. Destructive behavior drives human to excesses in life practices and also may help induce others to this behavior creating a cosmic and or universal disequilibrium.

Everything is related and things co-exist with other living things, regularly when one of these things goes wrong it brings down everything else with it, hence the current disequilibrium in nature that brought glacier melting and dramatic changes in weather. The sun is a natural and very important provider of Prana energy in the universe, it is with its help that all living things share their natural warmth and evolve into more living things. The purpose of Prana is to provide aid in the development and promotion of life, but not life without a purpose. Ki, Chi or Prana is life, it has a purpose of maintaining and producing more living things, and all living things most be in natural and direct contact with the Universe to create a channel for Chi energy it is a chain.

For thousands of years Asia and other parts of the world have been in such close contact with the use of this energy for good purpose, perhaps this 2012 is the time for the rest of us to begin using it for good as well.
