It’s a fact that we live in stressful times. Unless you operate under extraordinarily peaceful circumstances, it is almost inevitable that you will encounter daily stress. There are always deadlines to meet, more tasks to get done than seem possible and countless outside forces presenting unexpected challenges every day.
I’m not a doctor, but I am a human being, and I’ve battled high stress levels for years… and have paid the price for it. So with more than enough first-hand experience and a lot of research, here’s what I know: Stress is far more than the tension in your neck and shoulders. It can negatively affect virtually every system in your body.
Knowing how to successfully manage stress (in a safe, responsible way) can improve your health, enhance your relationships and provide peace of mind. It could even increase your longevity. My intention with this article is to teach you a simple, safe and effective way to deal with stress. But first I want to remind you how bad stress really is for you.
The Stress Response
When your body perceives a threat or danger, your nervous system releases a flood of stress hormones, including adrenaline and cortisol. These hormones prepare the body for emergency action. Your heart pounds, muscles tense and tighten, blood pressure rises, your breath quickens and your senses become sharper. These physical responses help increase your strength and stamina, while enhancing your reaction time to danger. Continue Reading

We always tell our children about the importance of drinking eight glasses of water a day. Yet many of our kids don’t do it, especially since colorful, artificially-flavored drinks and sodas are far more enticing and pleasant-tasting. Yet when it comes to ADHD natural treatments, water is an important part of any treatment plan. In fact, water is essential to maintaining overall good health; after oxygen, it is the second most important nutritional element.
The body is made up of 60-70% water, and the brain requires adequate hydration in order to function well. Do you recall how neurotransmitters – the chemical messengers of the brain – travel from neuron to neuron to trigger cognitive processes like attention and learning? They use the water in the brain as their means of travel.
Can you imagine what would happen to a child’s brain function if he or she does not have enough water to carry information? Imagine that a raging, white-water river is one of the brain’s neural pathways. Now picture a boat traveling through this river, carrying a messenger with vital information. A white-water river has a swift current that allows the messenger to reach his destination without delay. This is a brain that functions at its best, capable of generating new ideas, learning new concepts, and accomplishing great things. Now, picture this river during a drought. The water’s levels are low, and the current moves slowly, if at all. Traveling on a dry river will take a long while for the boat to reach its destination. Worse, the boat might end up drifting aimlessly or getting beached onto a sandy cove. This is the brain of a child with ADHD who drinks nothing but sodas and sugary juice. Continue Reading

Whenever you have mental disturbances like irritation, lack of memory, lack of equilibrium, hearing voices, emptiness, and several problems that prevent you from thinking clearly, you must urgently follow dream therapy. This is the only way through which you will surely prevent a mental illness, or find guaranteed psychotherapy for the mental illness you already have.
You will also develop your intelligence and use your entire brain power. Right now you are using only a small portion of your brain on the behalf of your conscience. The biggest part of your brain belongs to your primitive side.
All mental disorders are caused by the anti-conscience, the wild side of the human brain. We have inherited this absurd content into the biggest part of our brain. We have to get rid of this terrible content by transforming it into conscious and human content through dream therapy.
I discovered this truth after continuing Carl Jung’s research, and after fighting against schizophrenia, and winning the battle. My victory is based on my obedience to the unconscious guidance. This means that you can win this battle too. You will surely find sound mental health if you follow the unconscious guidance, no matter if you are merely depressed, or if you have to face a severe mental illness.
Dream therapy is a guaranteed and safe method of psychotherapy because it is based on the unconscious wisdom and sanctity. The unconscious wisdom proves God’s existence, and God’s sanctity. Continue Reading
