| Hi there
I hope you enjoy the e-zine as much as I do writing it. Index: Warren’s Notes :
Hi, Today I’d like to focus on more specifics around healthy ageing. Last month we covered doing a little of something, of anything, every day, to support lifetime health. The focus there was exercise, and how little focused activity it actually takes to keep muscle strength, bone strength, and general physical wellness, as we age. The other major areas to look at are what we should not put into our bodies and, of course, what we should be eating. Smoking, drugs, and alcohol are all problematic and there are programs everywhere to advise against excess in these areas, or to promote cutting them out entirely. I’d like to focus today on the positive side of what we can consume that’ll work with us to keep us strong over time. Over 30 years ago I was introduced to Herbal.life products. Nowadays medicinal herbs and supplements are much more mainstream. I was told that use of scientifically balanced supplements would make a huge difference to my own health over time. It is not about taking something now to feel great in 10 minutes. For 30 years now both my wife and I have been having a Herbal.life shake first thing in the morning and some Herbal.life tablet supplements with it. That works fine for breakfast if things are busy, and it is a natural part of a high nutrition weight loss program, but normally I am having that first thing and then walk my dog in the local bush before coming home for coffee and maybe some breakfast. Shake first thing in the morning is so easy once you have the habit and it means balanced nutrition every single day so there is much less pressure about other food during the day. People always seem to ask me what they should use in the way of supplements for their own situation The answer is that we are all different and there are targeted Herbal.life supplements that are focused on helping in specific areas, but we all need the broad spectrum nutrition that you get out of the Herbal.life formula 1 nutrition shake. Use it as a meal replacement for weight loss, and addition after a meal for weight gain, or as a supplement for general health. I always like to see people add our formula 2 muti-vitamin as well as some of the vitamins and minerals do not taste great and are better separated from a nutrition shake. The shake tastes great and is good value in itself. After 30 years I am getting older but my trainer at the gym
keeps working with me for my twice a week gym session and his feedback is that many of the exercises we do would be a challenge for people half my age and very few people my age can do what we do. Is that the herbs, or just keeping active over time? My recommendation? Details of the Herbal.life shake are below with order details or just send me an email and we can talk about what might be best for your own situation. Best wishes. Warren
If you are thinking about a meal replacement shake as part of your weight loss/health regime then take the time to consider quality. Herbal.life has one of the strongest nutritional boards in the world. If you are interested in the highest quality nutrition then check out the Formula 1 Shake details below:

Cells are the fundamental unit of the body and make up our tissues, organs and body systems. It is vitally important to take care of your cells, so that they can take care of you.

Herbalife Nutrition’s Cellular Science provides the elements that the body needs on a daily basis to maintain good health. Optimal Health Tip:Breathe mindfully.The process of mindful breathing is a form of meditation; however it is also a great way to get more oxygen into your blood and tissues. If you start right now and pay attention to how you are breathing, it is more than likely that you will find yourself breathing quite shallowly. This is not a healthy breathing pattern. You can start out by just inhaling completely and then slowly exhaling completely. If you take one minute to just do this focused breathing each day, you will find that you feel better during that minute. And, you will catch yourself paying attention to your breathing several times throughout the day. If you are stressed or tired, take a minute out of your day to breathe mindfully.

"Two little words that can make the difference: START
NOW."-- Mary C. Crowley "Achievement seems to be connected with action. Successful
men and women keep moving. They make mistakes, but they
don't quit." "The problem in my life and other people's lives is not the
absence of knowing what to do, but the absence of doing
it." "Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of
things which matter least." "Our greatest fear is not that we are powerless. Our
greatest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure." "Don't be prisoner of your past, but the architect of your
future."

Medical emergencies are an inevitable part of life. There is no age limit for them. In addition, there is a wide range of medical emergencies that can occur, from a heart attack to a gunshot wound. Being effective in an emergency requires knowing what to do when you don’t know what to do. Implement these steps to get more comfortable handling medical emergencies: 1. Be prepared. Have plans and materials to minimize the negative effects of a crisis. Know important emergency numbers, or have them glued to a wall. Keep important medical documents handy and have a first aid kit. Keep one in the house and in the car or wherever you spend a lot of your time. Learn what symptoms to look out for. Heart attacks don’t look like they do in movies. The symptoms are also different for men and women. Prepare yourself with knowledge. 2. Call emergency services. On the call, hold back from blurting everything out and answer their questions in the order they ask them. Their questions may mean the difference between getting what is needed for the emergency or not. Report accurate information. Then follow their instructions. 3. Get first aid training. Learn to perform CPR and chest compressions. For example, if it’s a gunshot wound, learn to apply constant pressure to the wound. Do everything in your power not to allow the wound to bleed out more than it already is. Bind it if you can. Don’t remove bloody bandages; instead, keep adding bandages. Even if you don’t live in a violent area, car accidents, and random house accidents can cause bleeding, which could be deadly if not stopped. Get trained on administering necessary medication, like knowing how to use a glucagon kit to help a person with diabetes. Learn to use an EpiPen for people who have allergies and learn how to do the Heimlich maneuver on someone who is choking. 4. Practice useful techniques. Your body won’t do something right unless you practice. Teach every member of your family how to perform basic emergency first aid. The more you practice, the less likely you will panic in an emergency. Have frequent practice drills to keep the knowledge fresh in your mind. 5. Force yourself to calm down. Before you do anything, take a pause and assess the situation. Instead of acting on impulse and severely messing up, take a proper look at what is happening. Count aloud in your head from one to ten. It persuades your body and brain to believe that there’s no need to panic. Take deep breaths, focus on breathing into your stomach, and exhale fully. Repeat this 2 or 3 times to calm down. 6. Avoid telling the person going through the emergency to calm down. Try to keep them focused on you. Stay close to the person if they are okay with it. Offer them gentle reassurance. Speak to them using short, positive statements. 7. Keep yourself busy. Anxiety increases when you’re just standing around waiting. Use the time to pack clothes for the hospital or apply pressure on a wound. It’s easier to maintain composure when you keep yourself busy. 8. Visualize happy thoughts. Picturing a positive, cheerful scene in your mind can help you relax and turn off your body’s stress response. Picture the ideal outcome of the negative situation you’re in. It will positively affect your brain, helping you remain prepared or ready to deal with the problem at hand. In an emergency, remaining calm will enable you to make better decisions and act logically. It will psychologically prepare you to handle the situation. It’s best to act fast and without panicking. Staying calm can mean the difference between life and death for you or the person going through a medical emergency. You’ll need all your concentration and focus. Remember to be flexible to the needs of each person. Be quick to adapt if what you’re trying isn’t working. Mindful Eating: Feel Great and Lose Weight!
We’re in unusual times. It’s more important to focus on health than ever before. Stress can lead to poor eating habits.It’s no secret that many people turn to food during times of high anxiety. This can result in overeating and poor food choices. Food can be enjoyable and a promoter of good health at the same time. The idea of mindfulness has been circulating for thousands of years but has only become a popular topic in the Western world recently. What is mindfulness? It’s simply using your attention in an intentional way. If you’re awake, your attention is on something. It might be a TV show, something outside your window, your thoughts, your dog, the pain in your foot, the temperature of the room, or folding your laundry. You can’t help but have your attention on something. Even when you’re meditating, you’re focused on something. However, if you’re
having a conversation, but thinking about your weekend plans, you’re not being mindful. Mindfulness involves paying attention to the present moment. So, if you’re having a conversation, you’re paying attention to the conversation. You’re also noticing when your attention wanders. What does mindfulness have to do with eating? Everything. We have created a new free online health guide on this subject from which you can learn the fundamentals and how to apply them in your life. Consider these topics as a way to learn more about your relationship with food and how mindful eating can benefit you: 1. What is Mindful Eating? We define mindful eating and describe the numerous benefits that it provides, which lays the groundwork for the rest of the guide. 2. Discovering Your Eating Cycle: You’ve probably never thought about what, when, where, why, and how you eat. Read how to become
an expert on your habits and relationship with food. 3. Stress-Related Eating: Stress changes your eating patterns, but do you know why? You will. You’ll also know how to avoid making poor eating decisions during the stressful times we’re experiencing. 4. Food and Mood: Food affects your mood. You’ll learn about nutritional psychiatry and how you can investigate how the foods in your diet affect your mind and body. 5. A Suggested Process for Eating Mindfully: Putting all the information together. You’ll have a basic outline to adapt as you see fit. You’ll also be introduced to some ideas for actually making mindful eating a part of your life. What is Mindful Eating? Mindful eating is simply eating with your full awareness on your food and the entire eating process. Most people sit down for a meal and mindlessly fills themselves up. They often overeat because they
aren’t paying attention to whether they’re full or not. They eat unhealthy food because they haven’t given serious thought to the nutritional value of their meal they’re about to eat. Their mind isn’t on their meal. They’re thinking about the bills that need to be paid. They might be watching TV. They might even be driving down the road while eating a meal.
This is the exact opposite of mindful eating. Mindful eating has several components: >> Click here to read the rest of our guide for What is Mindful Eating

Featured Store Product:THERMOGENISISThe NEW Development in Weight Management and Energy! Scientists believe the concept of thermogenisis is the most exciting news from weight management research in fifty years. Thermogenisis, meaning the generation of heat, is a normal process, like digestion, in which the body’s brown adipose (fatty) tissue (BAT) burns up the calories your body doesn’t need, thus creating a natural energy. Being overfat or obese, occurs primarily when BAT is not functioning properly, and the body must deal with excess calories by storing them as white fat. Scientists have discovered that by combining specific amounts of certain “totally natural” thermogenetic substances, it is possible to create a basically new compound with an “amazingly safe” thermogenetic action! THERMOGENISIS WILL DO THE FOLLOWING: THERMOJETICS ™ by Herbalife. Only limited by your own creativity. It activates the thermogenetic process as described in article above. Often described as “rocket fuel”, due to the lift in mental clarity and either increased, or more sustainable energy. WHAT PEOPLE EXPERIENCE . . .

What is EMDR - Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing - Psychotherapy Treatment?Its purpose is one that’s intended to relieve stress and other negative feelings that can be caused by traumatic memories.This can be living through a traumatic event yourself or witnessing it happen to someone else. There are three different parts to the EMDR therapy that can be a help to people. The first part is dealing with the events and memories that are responsible for the emotional problems you’ve been experiencing. In this first part of dealing with the events, you’ll learn how to create new links that you can associate with the events and memories. EMDR therapy works in that it can have you feeling safe and in control in your environment rather than afraid and feeling like the world is not a safe place for you to be in. The second part that can help people who use EMDR techniques is targeting the present situations that might provoke your distress. During the sessions, while you’re going through the phases, you’ll be doing work designed to desensitize any external and internal triggers you may have. Many people have certain triggers that will cause them to feel as powerless and scared as they were at the time the actual event took place. The person can feel like he or she is actual back in the event or seeing it again. EMDR can help you overcome the emotions and issues that are connected with that. The third part involves using imagery.
What Problems Can Be Helped by EMDR? There are several problems and symptoms that can be handled by using the teachings of EMDR. Extremely traumatic events such as sexual and physical abuse can be successfully treated. Rape victims can find relief from the traumatic memories through the techniques offered. Child traumas can also be treated by using
EMDR. Experiencing the death of a loved one can be difficult. Losing someone that you care about can be a traumatic event that can cause people to become stuck. EMDR can also help you overcome the trauma of losing someone that you love. There are other traumatic events that can require the need for a treatment like EMDR. If you witness a terrible trauma or the abuse of someone else, it can affect you emotionally. So can going through a natural disaster or even watching it unfold on television. Going through a short term event can have long term emotional consequences. An example of this would be having a house fire or being in a car accident. When you go through something like that, these events can bring on feelings of loss of control and fear. In some
cases, if you experience a trauma that leads to the death of someone else, you can develop survivor’s guilt. These feelings can be worked through during EMDR. Continue Reading The New Online Guide About EMDR - Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing - Psychotherapy Treatment Here >>

What You Need to Know about Finding Culturally Competent Health Care
When you’re choosing a doctor, there are a wide range of things to consider in order to feel safe and comfortable. Many patients are making cultural competence a priority.It’s a growing concern for doctors too. A recent poll by Healthgrades, a US company that collects information about health care providers, found that “31% of physicians said their level of cultural competency affected their ability to provide the best possible care either somewhat or a lot.” The American Psychological Association defines cultural competence as the ability to understand, appreciate, and interact with others with different backgrounds and beliefs. That can include ethnic groups, the LGBTQ+ community, the disabled, and more. Progress is being made on several fronts, but there are still significant obstacles. For example, only 5% of US physicians identify as Black or African American, a figure that has increased by only 4
percentage points over the last 120 years. Finding a doctor who understands your unique needs can help you to have a more positive experience. Learn more about culturally competent health care. Finding a Culturally Competent Doctor: 1. Check your insurance. You’ll probably have more options if you’re insured through your employer, rather than public programs. Call your insurance company or search providers using filters based on your preferences. 2. Seek referrals. Your family and friends are an excellent source of recommendations. You can also contact community clinics and affinity groups, like the National Hispanic Medical Association or the National Medical Association, which represents African American physicians. 3. Discuss accommodations. Make it easier for your provider to work with you
by notifying them in advance about your needs. For example, hospitals that receive federal funding are legally required to provide an interpreter if you have trouble communicating in English. 4. Ask questions. When you’re considering a provider, find out more about their training and experience. Ask them if they’ve treated patients with your background and how that influences the care they provide. 5. Look around. You can learn more by observing their offices. Are there posters and brochures with inclusive language and images? How does the staff interact with other patients? 6. Go online. If it’s difficult to find a local provider, virtual visits may expand your options. That can be especially helpful for mental health services. Other Tips: 1. Support training. Many medical schools now offer cultural competence courses to help doctors become more prepared. However, the total contact time is usually less than one week, so more needs to be done. 2. Extend invitations. Community involvement can help build trust and respect too. Let local providers know about neighborhood events and organizations. Depending on your background, you may be at higher risk for high blood pressure, diabetes, and other issues. Educating yourself empowers you when it comes to setting priorities and making decisions about your medical care and lifestyle. 4. Volunteer your services. Use your life experience and language skills to benefit others. Check with local hospitals and clinics about service opportunities. 5. Keep records. Writing things
down is a smart strategy for any patient. Make a list of questions you want to ask and take notes during appointments. Provide your doctor with accurate information about your symptoms and medical history. 6. Bring a family member. Ask someone you trust to accompany you on doctor visits. They can help with communications and advocating for your needs. Both patients and physicians have a role to play in strengthening cultural competency in health care.
