| A Healthy Body is Nutritious Food, Clean Water & Sunlight |
Our natural environment is real, full of love and gives everything necessary to sustain and nourish our body and lives beautifully. Our bodies are awesome works of natural art which require vitamins, minerals, fiber and nutrients which are supplied abundantly in nature along with sunshine, fresh air and clean water. Love like life is real and not disposable. Quantity and Quality of Life? A report published in the journal Health Affairs says the U.S. has dropped to 49th place in overall life expectancy down from 24th in 1999, among the nations of the world. The causes of America’s poor health include things like its broken food system, overuse of chemical pesticides, and dependence on pharmaceutical drugs — all of which are poisoning the population and the environment, and lowering lifespans.... Let’s get real! What do we tell our children about Sex? Mostly nothing about STD's, Oral Sex & Condoms. What do our children know about Sex? If they go to public school…probably as much or more than we do and most of that information is dangerous to their health! Regardless of what we have done in the past, we live in the now and now is the time to get real start talking to our kids about sex. This country has the highest rates of teen pregnancy, birth, and abortion in the industrialized world. In fact, the U.S. teen pregnancy and birth rates are nearly double Canada’s, at least four times those of France and Germany, and more than eight times that of Japan. The average age of puberty in girls is now nine, in a phenomenon increasingly being blamed on rising obesity and exposure to hormone-disrupting pollutants in the food supply.

Community Health This is a part of my life story that I never thought I would share…my secret. Why after keeping my secret for over ten years am I talking about it now? The health and future of the people around me is far more important than what anyone may say or think about me personally. I know how easy if was for me to get and use prescription drugs before public advertising and overt medical pushing. "I was a functioning in the closet addict except that I was not functioning." ....Life happens…trauma-drama...we either suffer from post traumatic stress syndrome or we evolve through post traumatic growth. I chose post traumatic stress syndrome and went to the area of my faith…doctors and science. I also maintained a very high level of arrogance and superiority because I didn’t use illegal drugs, smoke or drink other than an occasional glass of wine when I was not driving. Did I ever think of myself as a drug addict? Of course not…I only took medications prescribed by my doctor. Did any doctor ever refuse to give me a prescription…NO!

Love yourself first and everything else falls into line. You really have to love yourself to get anything done in this world. Lucille Ball Loving and taking care of ourselves is not something we are taught in school. Support is the main reason that most people are not successful in making wellness changes in their lifestyle. Just as Support Groups have been proven to be the most effective means of making lifestyle changes with addictions, everyone needs the love and compassion of a Support Group in making Wellness Lifestyle changes. |
