Charisma, Love, and Health

Thursday, November 15th, 2007

By David Snape This is an amazing story. It’s about my friend Robert.Robert is one of those really charismatic people. You knowthe kind I mean. Wherever he goes, people are just drawn tohim, its truly a sight to behold. At dinner the other night, Robert’s charm drew the waitersin and they conversed with him a great deal. However, whenI spoke up, the waiters didn’t seem to pay much attention.They may have even been a little dismissive. It was as ifthe only person at the table was Robert. The difference wasRobert’s charisma. He has that special way about him that weall sometimes wished we had. Anyway, in order to find out what that special somethingwas, I decided to interview Robert. I captured about 2hours worth of questions and answers with him. Here is what I found out. Robert basically, though hemight not say this directly, ‘loves’ people when he talks tothem. He has genuine concern and positive regard. He likes tofocus in on one thing that he finds especially interestingabout a person when he talks to them. It doesn’t matter ifhe tells the person what that thing is or not, it seems tohave the same effect. Try it and see what happens. Now, how does that relate to health? Well you see, myarticle on the mind-body connection discusses the principlethat Bernie Siegel wrote about in his book, Love, Medicineand Miracles. It seems that when his cancer patientsrevolutionized their thinking to become more loving andaccepting of others, their cancer often went into remission. You see, what Robert does with people, is love them when hetalks to them. Keep in mind that love is an action, it isnot an idea that sits there, it is active. Bernie’s cancerpatients loved those around them more and as a result theirhealth improved. Now do you see the connection between charisma, love andhealth? By loving others, not only can your health improve,but your social life improves as well. So what are you waiting for? Start looking for ways to loveothers more and watch your life improve in every aspect.This could be the most important thing you’ll read today.Why not share it with a friend? This article is for information purposes only. If you haveor think you have a health problem, visit your doctor fordiagnoses and treatment.

Second Step to Having Success in Network Marketing

Thursday, November 15th, 2007

By Aaron Meredith Are you thinking about joining a network marketing team? Have you joined a network marketing team and youre not having success? Did you know that 97% of people who join network marketing will quit having made little or no money? If you want answers to these questions I have them for you. This is the second step for anyone who has joined or is thinking about joining a network marking team and is looking for success. As I mentioned before it is imperative that you first learn how to lead. You need to have the mindset of a leader, the attitude of a leader, and the presences of a leader. Your leadership ability will be directly proportional to your network marketing success. When you have learned the importance of leadership you must next find a mentor. A mentor is someone who has been there done that. A mentor is someone who has what you are looking to gain. Having quality mentor ship from someone who has excelled will shorten your learning curve to having success in network marketing. You will not have to go through the many pitfalls, and failures that 97% of people face in network marketing. Instead your mentor will focus your attention on marketing tactics that do work. Your mentor will assist you in supercharging your business. It is important that you understand how to find a quality mentor. There are many scam artists out there claming that they can instantly put 20 people in your organization tomorrow and all they are charging is $200 dollars. First off is it possible to put 20 people in your organization in one day, sure, but is it realistic that you are going to buy into a program with zero success and become an instant overnight success, NO! Be very hesitant of these people proclaiming they can put infinity of people in your down line in one week. What you should do instead is find a mentor in your respective business, whether it is your sponsor or your sponsors sponsor. Find someone in your organization that will have a direct vested interest in your success. Meaning, when you succeed, they succeed. Be sure that when you find your mentor that you constantly pick their brain and emulate everything they do. Learn how they spend their time away from their business. If you want success the best place to learn is from those having success. In a way, you want to become your own new version of your mentor. Learn and follow their style at first until you are comfortable coming up with your own style. Finding a quality mentor is an essential step in having success in network marketing.

Global Residency

Wednesday, November 14th, 2007

By Greg Lipke If you love living where you are now, then there is probably no need for you to move. However, after reading this chapter, you may start to develop itchy feet. The grass sometimes IS greener on the other side. What are the advantages of moving? Basically that depends on where you live now and on how you want to live. Moving to another country can reduce or eliminate income, corporate and capital gains taxes. Now I’ve got your attention. Here is the BUT If you live in the USA you are taxed by your government on your world-wide income regardless of where you live in the world. That’s rude. It may still be tax advantageous to move however. You won’t get taxed twice. If you move to a tax haven where there are no or minimal taxes you will still have to pay the IRS but you won’t have any paperwork to do in your new home. If you move to a non-tax haven with a double taxation treaty with the USA there are many options open to you usually for reducing your taxable income. Talk to an advisor who specializes in international taxation. I’m not an accountant. I’m not even American so the US taxation system is not something I am well versed in. However, I do know that significant tax savings are possible when properly structured. If you are a citizen of a country with a residency based taxation system, and most are, then your tax saving opportunities are much easier. Just move. Once you reside outside these countries the tax departments no longer have any interest in taxing you. You only need to pay tax in the country you move to, if that country requires it. Tax reasons are not the only reason to move overseas. It isn’t even the most important reason, saving tax is just a bonus. The real reason, and only important reason to move is to increase your standard of living. What you need to ask yourself is this. What do you want? Does the place you live in now provide that for you? Do you want a more laid back lifestyle? Do you want to be exposed to less crime? Do you want a less expensive lifestyle, but with more luxury? Do you want a warmer or cooler climate? Do you want cheaper real estate and no capital gains taxes? etc. Only you know what you want. Below we will explore some of the best places in the world and why. Perhaps one of these places will suit what you are looking for. We will also look at the issue of economic citizenship. Economic citizenship programs are made available by 2 countries presently. They are St.Kitts & Nevis and Dominica. These countries, in exchange for varying amounts of money, will give you instant legal citizenship including a passport. You are not required to live in any of these countries, but as a citizen you can if you want to. The main advantage of these programs is the gaining of the second passport. This is essential for world travel if your original passport is from a country that has developed many enemies. For example, if your aircraft or cruise ship is hijacked by terrorists you may survive if you have a St Kitts & Nevis or Dominican passport because nobody has an argument with these countries. If you are carrying a passport from the US, UK or Australia you are screwed. Also another example is this, if you travel to Arab countries and also Israel you will experience fewer problems with the custom officials in these countries if you use separate passports with separate visas for entry into each of these countries. Another important advantage of these passports is that they allow visa free travel to a huge number of countries making travel easier than it may be on your current passport. One of the most important advantages of a passport from these countries, however, is the investment opportunities that it opens up. Some investments are not open to the citizens of some countries. The 2nd passports discussed here can be used to identify yourself to banks and investment companies and so allow you to invest in these lucrative investments. These economic citizenship programs will be discussed further under the appropriate country listing. Peruse the following country listings and see if any of these options fit your goals. My argument regarding residency is this. To live a luxury lifestyle you need to earn more and spend less whilst improving your standard of living. Moving to a tax haven, I believe, is essential. Reduce your tax and buy what you want cheaper. There are many fantastic places in the world you can move to and even save tax in, but many are expensive. Examples of these are Australia, New Zealand, Canada, USA, Bermuda, Ireland, the UK, Andorra, Campione and in fact most places in Europe are a nice place to live. You have to be quite wealthy to live the luxury lifestyle in these places. If you are quite wealthy check them out. If you are moderately well off then you can leverage what you have and acquire a luxury lifestyle by moving to the countries I have highlighted below. Almost all of these countries have first world products and services at reasonable prices. Here we go. 1. Vanuatu Vanuatu - is a group of islands north of New Caledonia, southeast of the Solomon Islands and west of the Fijian Islands in the South Pacific. It is a beautiful, peaceful country and has been independent since 1980. If you would like to move there you are required to make a positive contribution to the economy. This means investing US$50,000 in an approved investment and also lodge an immigration bond to pay for your repatriation should you make a nuisance of yourself. You can opt to invest the US$50,000 in real estate, however, you cannot own land there. You instead purchase a 55 year lease that is renewable. The people of Vanuatu speak Pidgin, English and French. The country is democratic and there is no income tax. 2. The Bahamas The Bahamas - are a group of many islands south-east of the US and north-west of Cuba in the Caribbean. This is a democratic, income and company tax free country renowned for its tropical beauty. It is also one of the few countries in the world where you can buy your own tropical island. If you wish to reside here, permanent and temporary residency permits require the payment of approximately B$1,000 for the head of the family plus B$20 for each family member. Also required if you want permanent residency is an investment of B$250,000 in a registered group investment or B$500,000 in another investment. Temporary permits are valid for 1 year. Tourist visas allow you to stay for up to 8 months of the year. The only worry I have with the Bahamas is global warming. The country is low lying and if the sea levels rise most of this country may become Atlantis. The official language of this country is English. 3. The Turks and Caicos Islands The Turks & Caicos Islands - lie south east of the Bahamas. This country is a dependency of the UK. There is no income or company tax, gift tax, inheritance, property or sales taxes. Living and residency here is easy. It costs approximately US$2,000 for a permit to work or reside here. Don’t even think about looking for a job here, however. The country is democratic and the official language is English. 4. The Dominican Republic The Dominican Republic - ( not to be confused with the Commonwealth of Dominica) is one of the poorest countries in the Caribbean. It is located east of Haiti and west of Puerto Rico. This country is democratic and the official language is Spanish. All foreign earned income is tax free here and you can live like a king because everything is so cheap. If you are American, European, Canadian, British or Australian and have an external income your residency is virtually guaranteed. After 2 years you can apply for citizenship. 5. St Kitts and Nevis St Kitts & Nevis - is a small island group in the Caribbean north of Montserrat and west of Antigua & Barbuda. It is independent, democratic and English speaking. There is no income tax or tax for offshore companies. St Kitts & Nevis has a very good economic citizenship program, but it is expensive. This is the Rolls Royce option. It will cost you US$250,000 minimum investment in real estate, US$35,000 government fee for the main applicant, US$15,000 government fee per dependent, US$2,500 due diligence fees per adult and US$15,000 in application fees. This will give you full citizenship and a passport within approximately 3 months. This passport gives visa free travel to many countries as it is a British Commonwealth passport. 6. The Commonwealth of Dominica The Commonwealth of Dominica - ( not to be confused with the Dominican Republic) is an English speaking, democratic country. It has been independent since 1978. Dominica is located south of Guedeloupe and north of Martinique in the Caribbean. There are no income taxes or company taxes. Dominica is also a nature lovers dream. Dominica has a very good economic citizenship program. It will cost you US$75,000 government fee for a single applicant or US$100,000 government fee for a family of up to 4 people. Due diligence fees range from US$15,000 plus US$700 per person. This will get you full citizenship and a British Commonwealth passport within 4 months. 7. The Cayman Islands The Cayman Islands - consists of 3 islands in the Caribbean north west of Jamacia and south of Cuba. There are no income, inheritence or capital gains taxes. You can immigrate here if you have a spotless reputation and at least US$150,000. You must be financially independent and not have to depend on the local ecomony for an income. 8. Belize Belize - is paradise on earth. Belize is democratic, peaceful and there are no taxes. It is English speaking. Belize is located in Central America bordered by Mexico and Guatemala. Becoming a resident is relatively simple. If you stay for a year you are granted permanent residency. You just need to have your tourist visa renewed every 3 months for a year. You must deposit at least US$2,200 into a local bank. After 5 years as a permanent resident you are eligibile for citizenship. You can easily live a luxury lifestyle in this country without a lot of money. 9. Costa Rica Costa Rica - is located in Central America between Nicaragua and Panama. Costa Rica has has its problems over the years but things are improving and it remains a popular retirement destination for many people. All income earned outside Costa Rica is tax free. To gain residency you must be able to prove you have an income of more than US$1,000 per month. You just need to have this income exchanged into local currency at a local bank and present the receipts to the Tourisn Institute every 2 years to renew your permit. This is another country where you can live like royalty with little money. Costa Rica is a Spanish speaking democracy. English is widely understood though. 10. Panama Panama - is located in Central America between Costa Rica and Columbia. Panams is a well established international financial centre with very attractive residency possibilities. Panama is a Spanish speaking country where English is well known. Income earned from outside Panama is tax free. This democracy is a first world country and Panama city could be mistaken for Miami. Panama has three residency options: The Panama Investor Immigration Program requires an investment of at least US$100,000 in a new company or business or in any business in the country employing at least 3 Panamanian citizens. The investors must be directors & officers of the company. OR, you can invest US$40,000 in a reforestation project. After 5 years with this residency permit you can apply for Panamanian citizenship and passport. The Pamana Retiree Residence Program requires you to invest enough money in a term deposit at the Banco Nacional de Panama to generate at least US$750 per month in interest for a minimum of 5 years. You can also receive a non-citizens passport that is good for travel. This program does not lead to citizenship. The Panama Pensionado Residence Program requires you to prove that you receive a pension of US$500 per month minimum from any government or private source outside of Panama. This program does not lead to citizenship. It does however, entitle you to many discounts country wide. Dr Gregory Lipke is the CEO of Cyber Publishing Ltd.

Tanning Lotions

Tuesday, November 13th, 2007

By Alison Cole The benefits of using tanning lotions are countless, and today, the tanning industry has many different kinds of lotions to offer for the customers choice. Suntan lotions come with bronzers, tingle factors, and cooling effects, or in any combination of the three mixed together. Tanning lotions are used on a daily basis to help maintain the moisture levels of the skin, and to achieve a healthy glow. They protect the skin from the sun without the use of additional sun protection factors or any protective lotion. Tanning lotions help enhance skincare. Tanning is one of the ways that the skin protects its cells from the sun. Tanning produces more of the pigment melanin, which helps skin cells absorb the ultraviolet radiation of the suns rays more safely. There are a variety of lotions that give a tan that is natural and lasting without the ill effects of harmful drying. Tanning lotions are meant for use outdoors. The main ingredient in tanning lotions protects skin from harmful rays, and the other ingredients nourish and hydrate the skin during the tan. Tanning lotions are very useful in moisturizing the skin and in helping to prepare it for ultraviolet exposure. Tanning lotions contain antioxidants that can help remove fine lines and wrinkles, thus enabling the skin to look younger. They make use of natural plant extracts and vitamins A, C, and E. These lotions give a natural, radiant look, with smooth skin and a fresh feel. However, tanning on a daily basis can have a harmful and harsh effect on the skin. Tanning lotions have three basic functions: nutrition, hydration, and oxygenation. Nutrition serves to supply the required vitamins to the skin cells to support regeneration and oxygenation. Hydration is essential to moisturize the skin sufficiently. Oxygenation helps provide oil to the skin and accelerates the tanning process. Tanning lotions are developed as part of medical research and have become a product of the fashion world in recent times. Many multinational companies are into the production of tanning lotions, as these lotions greatly reduce the possible risks from the harmful rays of the sun. Tanning Lotions provides detailed information on Tanning Lotions, Tanning Bed Lotion, Sunless Tanning Lotion, Discount Tanning Lotion and more. Tanning Lotions is affiliated with Home Tanning Beds.

Seven Clues To Mystery Babylon in Revelation

Sunday, November 11th, 2007

By William Bell, Jr. From Fear and Fascination to Faith and Facts My first encounter with the book of Revelation was fear. Who didn’t get a few chills running down their spine about the number 666, the “mark of the beast,” the seven plagues and this dramatic portrayal of the endtime? That fear kept me from wanting to know more about this book, though I was drawn to it. Then I stumbled across a study that made an intelligent versus fanciful media-hyped approach to the book. It addressed it as a coded message, but written to the first century church who were part of its history and time. That evidence focused on the date of the book. It raised and answered the question, was it written pre or post A.D. 70? Thirdly, an investigation of the internal evidence and alignment with other texts as commentary overruled the temptation to rely on imagination and the media. This was one of the most enlightening and satisfying decisions in my quest to understand the message of Revelation. What follows are a few keys that were convincing to me. What Is A Mystery? A mystery is not something which cannot be known, but simply that which is not known until it is revealed. The seven points in this article are now a mystery, but if you read further, they will become manifest to you. In Revelation, “Babylon” is a code word for the mystery city. The book is not about ancient Babylon nor modern day Iraq. Babylon was used as a sign to disguise in military-type code, the identity of the city. Why? It’s because this city was marked for destruction. The political climate of the day made it extremely dangerous to speak openly of destroying this city, (Acts 6:14) especially by Christians who were viewed as its chief enemies. The preaching of Jerusalem’s impending destruction led to Stephen’s martyrdom, (Acts 7). Its connection with ancient Babylon was its moral decay and idolatry. Ancient Babylon’s fall was precipitated by their pride and disrespect for God, the persecution of God’s people and the profaning of the temple’s holy vessels . Thus Belshazzar’s feast led to the demise of his kingdom. Hence the term Mystery Babylon. 1. “The Great City, –Where The Lord Was Crucified) Further identifying Mystery Babylon as the great city (Revelation 17:18; 18:10), leads us to clue number one. The great city of Revelation is identified as the city spiritually called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.” (Revelation 11:8) Besides the actual city, there is only one city in the Bible ever referred to as Sodom. It is Jerusalem, (Deuteronomy 32:32; Isaiah 1:10). The description, where also our Lord was crucified is strong evidence pointing to Jerusalem. Further, it could not be that a prophet perish outside of Jerusalem, Luke 13:33. Jerusalem was called the city of the great King. (Matthew 5:35) To the Jews it was the greatest city in the world. 2. The Golden Cup of Abominations The imagery of the filled cup of iniquity indicates that God’s period of longsuffering had run its course. Genesis 15:16 shows why God expelled the Amorites from the land in order that Israel might inherit Canaan. The reason he did not do so immediately was because the iniquity of the Amorites was not yet full. Their cup of sin yet had room for more and did not run its course until the time of the Exodus. Jesus spoke to the people of Jerusalem warning them that they would fill up the measure of their father’s guilt in killing the prophets. See point #3. Paul says they had filled up the measure of their sins and would experience the coming wrath. (1 Thessalonians 2:14-16). 3. God Would Avenge All The Righteous Blood Shed on Earth By Jerusalem. Mystery Babylon was guilty of shedding the blood of the apostles and prophets, (Revelation 18:20). However, God avenged the blood of the apostles and prophets. Not only was their blood be avenged, but God avenged all the blood shed on the earth on Mystery Babylon, (v. 24). Jesus predicted the same for Jerusalem. In Matthew 23:34-37, Jerusalem is charged with the blood guilt of all the righteous blood shed on the earth up to that time. Jesus would send more wise men, scribes and prophets whom he said they would scourge in their synagogues and persecute from city to city until he destroyed Jerusalem. It therefore matches perfectly with this description. 4. The “Mystery Babylon” Was Once a Queen. This identifies the city as having a covenant relationship with God. Neither ancient Rome, nor any other modern city could appropriately be styled as God’s wife. Through the Old Covenant, God was married to Jerusalem, (Jeremiah 2:14). Because of her unfaithfulness, God threatens divorce. While Mystery Babylon claims to be a queen, she is widowed. (Revelation 18:7) 5. The Antithesis of the Two Cities The contrast of the two cities in Revelation are a strong clue to the identity of Mystery Babylon. After the great city, Mystery Babylon is destroyed, God blesses a New Jerusalem. That implies an Old Jerusalem. This is the same antithesis running throughout the New Testament expressed in covenantal terms. (See Galatians 4:24-26; Hebrews 8:6-13; 12:18-23). The new Jerusalem however is not an earthly city but one which comes down out of heaven prepared as a bride adorned for her husband, (Revelation 21:1-3). Paul writes that the church is the bride of Christ, 1 Corinthians 11:2; Ephesians 5:23-31, Hebrews 12:22, 23). The new holy city Jerusalem, takes the position as bride while the former adulterous wife receives death by fire. 6. Come Out of Her My People The call to God’s people to come out of Mystery Babylon” (Revelation 18:4) further aligns with the ancient city of Jerusalem. Prior to its destruction, Jesus warned that his disciples should flee the city to avoid its plagues of destruction, famine and death. (Matthew 24:15-17; Luke 21:20-22). 7. Trodden Down of the Gentiles In Luke 21:24, Jesus remarks that Jerusalem would be trodden down of the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles were fulfilled. Unfortunately, today, many believe the Gentiles are rulers over the people of God. This is impossible as that period ended in A.D. 70 when Rome destroyed Jerusalem. It was the time when all things written were fulfilled, coming to pass before that generation passed away, (Luke 21:22, 32). As old Jerusalem was once called the faithful and holy city, John prophesied that it was measured for destruction, (Revelation 11:2). Old Jerusalem Is A Perfect Match Everything said about Jerusalem in the gospels, is symbolically described for Mystery Babylon in the book of Revelation. There are more contrasts and parallels but these should at least get one thinking. Fanciful and colorful charts as those presented by John Hagee and others will forever fail to properly identify the Mystery Babylon as long as they are pointed in the future and toward some city or nation that has no antithesis with old Jerusalem. Further, a modern or present day Jerusalem, does not descend from heaven and can never be the holy city of Revelation 21. The message and meaning of Revelation seems best and most easily understood when one values the shortly to come to pass, time is at hand time parameter of the message keeping it within a contemporary, historical setting of its first century hearers, (Revelation 1:1, 3. It may not frighten us as much, but it certainly encourages us with the message of faith, confidence in God’s sovereign power and victory over the forces of evil.

Immigrate To Canada? Yes, But How?

Saturday, November 10th, 2007

By Gerd Damitz Canadian citizenship a dream comes trueWell, a person can become a Canadian citizen by being born in Canada, or in some cases, by being born outside Canada to a Canadian parent. Or, as in the case of permanent residents a person could apply to become a Canadian citizen. To apply for Canadian citizenship an applicant must ♦ be at least 18 years, or a minor child of a citizen or applicant for citizenship ♦ be a permanent resident ♦ have lived in Canada for three of four years immediately before applying for citizenship ♦ have a knowledge of English or French ♦ have knowledge of Canada, and the responsibilities and privileges of citizenship ♦ not be prohibited from being granted citizenship because of criminal prohibitions, because they are under a deportation order or because they represent a security problem The Citizenship Act allows the Minister for Citizenship and Immigration under certain circumstances to waive the requirement of language, knowledge, or taking the oath.The application itself has to be mailed to CPC Sydney and must be accompanied by a processing fee of $100 plus in most cases a Right To Citizenship fee of additional $100.00 for adults. CPC reviews the application for its proper completion including all necessary information, and if the processing fee has been paid. If everything is in order the applicant will receive a confirmation letter that the application has been received. This confirmation letter is accompanied by a copy of A Look at Canada, a guide on which the written Citizenship is based on.At the same time CPC will forward the application to the RCMP and the Canadian Security and Intelligence Service (CSIS) for a background check. The background check includes a check for a criminal record, security record and immigration record. Finally CPC prepares a certificate package and sends it to the CIC office nearest the applicants address. The CIC office sets a date for the Citizenship test and sends an invitation to the applicant. If more information is required about prohibition or residence, or if an applicant failed the written citizenship test, an interview will be scheduled with a Citizenship judge. In this case the Citizenship judge reviews the application and the test to determine whether the applicant meets the requirements for Citizenship. If deemed necessary the applicant will have an interview scheduled with the Citizenship judge. The applicant will receive a written explanation outlining the reasons, if the judge does not approve the application. Afterwards the applicant could apply againor appeal the decision to the Federal Court. The Right of Citizenship fee of $100.00 would be refunded approximately after 7 to 9 months and mailed to the last known address of the applicant. However, if the judge approves the citizenship the applicant is invited to attend a Citizenship ceremony and take the Oath of Citizenship. At the ceremony the applicant receives finally the Certificate of Canadian Citizenship, and will become with this act a proud Canadian Citizen.The rights as Canadian citizen include the right to vote or to be a candidate in federal and provincial/territorial elections, to learn in either official language, to apply for a Canadian passport and to leave/enter Canada freely. Rights always bring responsibilities with them. Therefore, it is expected from the new Canadian citizens that they obey the Canadian laws, vote in elections, care for Canadas heritage, work to help others in the community, express opinions freely while respecting the rights and freedoms of others, and help to eliminate discrimination and injustice. Many readers will probably agree that this is the right spirit any society should be build on, and despite nothing is perfect, that Canadas society is trying very hard to come close to these idealistic values. The Citizenship Act in this form will experience some changes in the near future, probably in this very year. At the moment there are readings of Bill C-63 in the House of Commons with the first reading starting on December 7th, 1998. The new Act would include changes for citizens by birth, in the requirements for residency, in the right of Citizenship for adopted children, and in implementation and control of the process for the granting of citizenship. I will explain any implemented changes in detail, as soon the new Citizenship of Canada Act will come into force.However, if any reader has questions concerning the proposed changes he is welcome to contact me.

You Already Know All You Need To Know

Wednesday, November 7th, 2007

By Amanda Julynn Weight loss. Its whats on most adults minds at this very moment, and if it isnt now it will be later. And for those people who never have to worry about their weight… we all hate you! ;-) We live in the era of the trendy diets like The Zone and Atkins. We live in the pill-for-everything nation with drugs like hoodia, ephedra, cortisol, caffeine pills and appetite suppressants. But no matter what your drug or diet of choice is… it will never rid your mind of your weight loss worries. America. We are the fattest nation in the world! We are the nation of the quick fix, the quick meal, and most importantly… fast food. For those of you who have seen Super Size Me you saw a man in peak physical health start eating a diet of only McDonalds for a month. At the end of the month, he was fatter, looked physically disgusting and sick, got out of breathe while climbing up 6 steps, and he had doctors begging him to stop. Did this proof stop Americas fast food obsession….. nope! We are still the nation with sleep apnea, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, and with people on disability because they are too overweight function normally in society. But wait! The drug companies have given us solutions! I actually had a coworker say to me as if she had some bad news, Well, my doctor had to put me back on Lipitor. And then two minutes later, So lets do Burger King for lunch?! This just aggravates me so much . All I want to say to these people is, This isnt like cancer. You werent just stricken with these diseases at no fault of your own. Its your horrible, horrible diet… JUST STOP IT! However, Id have to say that the blame isnt totally on these people. We are conditioned from childhood, with the happy meal toys, and the in-restaurant jungle-gyms that fast food is fun. As we grow up we learn its easy and socially acceptable. In our fast-paced society of mothers that are too tired to cook for their family, teens to busy with school activities, and college kids that are too bogged down with work (and partying) to even learn how to cook… where do you think the concept of fast food came from? On the other side of the scale (no pun intended), we have the weight loss industry. One of the most profitable industries in America. We are constantly bombarded with the latest pills, supplements, diets, programs, gyms, trainers, and exercise equipment which leaves our heads spinning! Now when you think of it in the cynical, suspicious way that I do… the fast food industry is making us fat, then the weight loss industry jumps in to save the day… coincidence?… conspiracy?… well save that for another article. Whats more important is that we are all being manipulated by these industries because we are lost! We dont trust ourselves to know how to lose weight because we are the ones who let ourselves put it on in the first place. So we read all the books, go to all the web sites, watch all the infomercials trying to see whos got it. Whos right, whos got the secret, who is the weight loss god that will fix us for good and as quickly as possible. Were looking to all of these other people when all we really have to do is listen to ourselves, our bodies, and just plain logic. Think back to grade school. We learned in gym class that we need exercise and it can be fun and make us feel good. We learned about the food pyramid which, though it has recently been updated, still tells us that we need a balanced diet. I specifically remember in 8th grade biology class, learning about fats (lipids), carbs (starches, and sugars), and proteins (big chains of amino acids.) We learned that each of these substances has a certain amount of calories and that your body uses these calories as energy to keep your body working. Were burning a couple hundred calories just sitting in a chair for and hour. This is just all basic stuff that most people have been taught already…. DID WE ALL FORGET THIS!? Or do we all just want the miracle cure for gaining weight? In the 90s it was all about nonfat and reduced-fat. We all thought, hey, if what Im eating has no fat in it, I cant get fat from eating it! WRONG! All they did was up the carb count and in some cases the calorie count too. But we didnt want to see that. In the new millennium we copied the super skinny celeb actors (who, by the way, arent just getting skinny for the sake of vanity, but to keep their jobs.) And the no-carb, low-carb revolution began! We all stopped eating starches, dropped a whole bunch of water weight in the first two weeks because we had no carbs in our systems to hold onto it anymore… leaving us constipated and crying at the sight of the bread basket at the restaurant table because we couldnt have any. Dont get me wrong, I agree that sugar (as in candy) and other simple sugars should not be a regular part of your diet and my dentist would agree too. However, to deny yourself of a whole food group for God knows how long, is just plain stupid! So what does that leave us with? Everything that we learned when we were young! What it all comes down to is the amount of calories you are ingesting should be in close proximity to the amount that your body naturally burns off on its own everyday. If you wanna burn off a little more and lose some weight… stick to a balanced diet and throw some exercise in there. And this doesnt mean that you should start waking up at 6 am to run 5 miles, or to join a gym and go 4 times a week for 2 hours at a time. Because I know from experience that if you do that, youll burn yourself out and never want to exercise again! Exercise just means to up your level of activity from the level your body is used to on a normal day. Dont have much free time? So, park your car further away from the stores entrance in the parking lot than you normally would. Take the stairs instead of the elevator, even just for one flight. Walk your dog down the block and back instead of just letting him out the back door (trust me, it doesnt take as long as you think and your pup will love you for it!) Be smart. Be logical. Dont rationalize eating McDonalds for lunch everyday just because you ran a mile that morning. (Youll be screwing with your heart in more ways than one.) And Im sorry, there just arent any miracles that will make you lose 20lbs. in 2 days. Suck it up! Realize that it took you awhile to put your weight on… its gonna take awhile to take it off… as it should. However impatient we are, our bodies still need time to adjust to any change in activity, stress, and weight. And unless youre a successful model or and actor (which I doubt your are if youre reading this), youre not getting paid for how good you look on camera. So put down the copy of People magazine, stop telling yourself you need to look like that and give yourself a friggin break! Give your body a break. And more importantly, give your mind a break because this isnt brain surgery. Everything we need to know about weight loss, we learned in grade school.

5 Tips to Enjoying Your Day Spa Visit

Tuesday, November 6th, 2007

By Theresa Carter There’s just something about walking into a day spa, isn’t there? It’s a haven from your hectic every day life, an oasis that lets you do something just for you. That massage or body treatment feels like a guilty indulgence, even though it’s probably necessary for your sanity! Whether you’re visiting a day spa for the first time or the fiftieth, these tips will help you get the most out of your massage, body wrap, aromatherapy, etc. 1. Remember when Mom told you not to swim for an hour after eating? Well, the same holds true for spa visits. Don’t eat for at least an hour before a massage or body treatment. 2. Arrive 30 minutes early. If you’re worried about being late, tapping your foot waiting for the elevator and rushing to the receptionist desk, you won’t get nearly as much out of your visit. 3. RELAX! I know, that’s how you’re supposed to feel after you’re done. If you can take a few deep breaths before your treatment (in the waiting room, since you’re early, right?), your experience will be that much more rewarding. 4. Drink LOTS of water before and after. Water enhances the detoxifying and rehydrating benefits. 5. Talk to your therapists - they don’t bite! If anything feels off, let them know: too hot/cold, too much pressure/too little pressure, music’s too loud - anything. They want you to have the best experience possible so you’ll come back for more. Theresa Carter is the creator and publisher of TheLocalTourist.com, a free online guide to downtown Chicago.

Aroma Therapy: Get Cured With A Whiff

Sunday, November 4th, 2007

By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Tom_Cary] Tom Cary The origin of aromatherapy can be traced back to ancient Egypt. It was used in both ritualistic and medicinal practices. Even the Chinese medicinal practices are rich in cures with essential oils in acupuncture, massage, inhalations and baths. The ancient Indian medicinal system also deals a lot with the medicinal oils. Many aroma cures are practiced in homes and has become a part of common home remedies. Knowledge of aroma therapy and its scientific basis started after a French Chemist Gattefosse showed that essential oils can penetrate the skin and mingle with the extra-cellular liquids of the body which are then carried to the different organs. Other research has shown that the olfactory nerves that react to smell is directly connected to the hypothalamus. Hypothalamus controls the endocrine system which regulates growth, and other activities such as heart rate, breathing, digestion, body temperature and hunger. Basics of aromatherapy Aroma of oils is extracted from various herbs and plants which help to bring the mind and body into a state of equilibrium. It helps in healing various metal and physical ailments. This oil from which the aroma is taken is known as essential oils which can be used to treat many ailments like depression, stress, arthritis, back problems, muscle aches, head aches, colds, sinus problems, skin disorders, asthma, digestion problems, etc. The essentials oils are many and information on the essential oils and aromatherapy info can be obtained from the internet. These essential oils evaporate easily and are used in many air fresheners. A vapouriser, potpourri burner, heating the oil on the stove or placing a few drops in steaming water can create a distinct mental and emotion atmosphere. Pure essential oils are extremely concentrated and are volatile. Most of these oils contain vitamins and minerals, some are natural antiseptics where as others exhibit hormone like properties. How to use these Essential Oils Make your own perfume by adding these oils to other oils so that it does not evaporate fast. You could also add it to pure alcohol (ethyl) and use it like a perfume. Water is used in therapy quite often and using oils in bath tub while having a bath enhances the power of the oil. Do not add any other substance (foam, soap or other oils) to the water. Just add about 9 or 10 drops of essential oils and relax. The oil is absorbed into the skin and inhalation of the vapor is added benefit. For children and babies be sure to reduce the quantity of oil. You could also take a cotton and dab it with a little bit of oil and keep it in the room you are working in. Putting a drop or two of oil in the dust bin and in other vantage points in the room will permeate the entire room with the pleasant aroma. In case you are to use it for colds and inflammation of the sinus. Steamers that are made specially for aromatherapy can help. These steamers are used even for other ailments.
