Do you ever feel stuck, like your goals and ambitions never get any closer?
Are you aware of self-sabotage, whereby you avoid doing the things that will help you reach your goals, and you don't know why.
Do you find yourself saying "why does this always happen to me?"
If you answered yes to any of the above then I suggest you take 5 minutes out of your day to read this blog.
Rachael Wall and I (Lorna Kennard) have been working as therapist since 2001 and over that time have realised more and more the importance of understanding the relationship between the Mind and the Body when it comes to health and wellness. Our treatments and personal interest has become more focused on how the mind influences the body and regain a healthy relationship between the whole body-mind. That was our focus when we took over the Lotus Centre, to create a healing environment with treatments available to help body, mind and spirit.
Last weekend Rachael and I went on a course to become PSYCH-K® Facilitators and we've been blown away by the simplicity of the process and the profound effects it has. Thanks goes to a friend who reminded us about PSYCH-K® from the 'Biology of Belief' book we lent her. (Follow the link to our last blog to find out more about Bruce Lipton and "The Biology of Belief"). When she suggested we all go on the course to find out more we jumped at the chance.
The weekend was fantastic and our tutor Cazzie Dare was great at explaining the relationship between our Super-Conscious Mind (Inner Wisdom/Higher Self), Sub-Conscious Mind and Conscious Mind and how, with the use of Muscles Testing (A Kinesiology Technique) we can directly ask the Super and Subconscious mind questions.
We discussed how powerful the Subconscious mind is and how it controls and dictates so much of what we do. It's where your memories, habits and most of our beliefs are stored. Whether those deeply held beliefs are serving us well or not, the Subconscious mind will guide us to live by them. This is why we can end up self-sabtotaging the things that consciously we are striving to achieve, because achieve those things don't match the beliefs we still hold but are not consciously aware of.
PSYCH-K® is a simple but very effective way to change any limiting beliefs we have and change them into more supporting ones. Firstly we had a go a muscle testing. A Kinesiology based technique that clearly shows when the Subconscious doesn't believe the statements being made. It was amazing to watch and feel how weak the body became when we lied about our names. After stating the wrong name our arms went weak and could be pushed down by even the lightest pressure. By using this testing method we could easily see when the body didn't believe the statements we were making. It also means that by the end of the PSYCH-K® Balance we could see and feel that a change has been made, because the arm stayed strong.We had great fun working through different belief statements and seeing which ones didn't hold true for us at a deeper level.
Next we learnt two different PSYCH-K® balances to work with the belief statements we did hold at a Subconscious level. This combined a mixture of actions, self talk and holding certain postures to engage the whole brain in the process. It's hard to describe how it felt but we all noticed a shift deep inside after each balance. It was amazing to see time and time again how the muscle testing changed after only 5-10min ding the balance. It also felt good to know that a changed had occurred at the Subconscious level and a new and improved belief has been installed :))
Every time a belief is changed PSYCH-K® facilitators love you to celebrate to help lock in the energy of the change – you can do that anyway you like. Rachael and I like a good energetic High-5!!
The best part of the weekend was talking to people on day 2 and finding out the positive changes they had already noticed after just one days work! We both came away buzzing and excited, desperate to start using PSYCH-K® both on ourselves and with you. Thank you again Cazzie for an amazing 2 days and roll on PSYCH-K® Advanced – yes people there's more to come!
We'd love to help you get the most out of your life, whether its a health goal, business goal, personal or lifestyle ambition. Please get in touch and we can discuss it with you to see if PSYCH-K® is the right path for you.

If you are open to completely changing your current thinking with regard to how you believe your body works and learning more about the power you have to alter your own health you will be rushing out to buy Bruce Lipton's The Biology of Belief: Unleashing the Power of Consciousness, Matter & Miraclesit is a truly incredible book. I first came across this book in 2003 and it revolutionised my approach to treating patients and fuelled my understanding on how our bodies have an amazing capacity to heal mentally, physically and spiritually regardless of your starting point you just need a little understanding to help get you there.
So often I hear the following statements when treating in clinic:
- It's just because I'm old/getting older.
- My Doctor said its my age and I will just have to live with it.
- It's in my genes.
- My parents had that disease therefore I definitely will.
These unfortunately are misconceptions we have about ourselves. There is so much proof out there that we have the capability to change our health and wellbeing. If you haven't heard about it or think I am talking nonsense just take a moment to think and reflect on the information shared in this book then think again. You may have a eureka moment yourself, like the saying 'Your mind is like a parachute. It is only working when it is open' hey at one stage the world was thought to be flat….
About the author – Bruce Lipton
Bruce Lipton started his career in mainstream medicine and through his research realised how the teaching of biology was so far from the truth (and yet some of these things are still being taught). His journey started when he witnessed first hand through the lens of a microscope how the environment a cell was brought up in determined its health and vitality (or not) So what does that mean to you?
This is basically fresh and prepared at home avoiding the chemical ridden, pre-packaged full of artificial preserving agents type food so readily available.
This can be in relation to dieting/eating the wrong foods, stress at home or work, exposing yourself to things you are allergic to or have a sensitivity to.
This book takes you through how your cells work in an easy to understand way. Bruce Lipton uses the analogy of a sandwich made up of bread, olives and butter to explain this…. He then goes on to describe how we are the controllers of our genes and our destiny in relation to health and freedom from disease and provides explanations as to why particular illness can follow through family lines all of which gives the illusion of your genes controlling you when they don't. He also explains why certain drugs/medications give side effects – when you understand that; you realise that treating a symptom can only ever have a global impact on your own body.
The implications of mindset are also discussed in the book. There is a solution to most problems, dwelling on the negatives only brings more of the same. Your brain does not know what is real or imagined. If you are thinking about something as far as your brain is concerned it is happening. So if you are thinking of something negative that makes you sad or angry, you will be producing all of these emotions in your body through chemicals released in your bloodstream.
Now for a quick experiment so that you can feel it first hand:
By focussing on negatives you release all of those stress hormones at the same time it doesn't feel good and it isn't a healthy environment for your body.
Finally the impact our brain has on our body
Did you know that up until you are around 11 years old you are walking around in a hypnotic state absorbing and taking in everything.
During this time you learn how the world will be, by the people around you. This information is stored in your subconscious minds and forms the basis of your beliefs and habits. That is why you will start to turn into your parents as you get older, foibles and all, unless you become conscious of what you are thinking…..! Food for thought there.
Our subconscious mind is 2 million times more powerful than your conscious mind so guess who/what is in control of your health and happiness (or lack of it right now)? There are ways to change our imprinting through treatments such as hypnotherapy and Psych-K (Lorna Kennard and Rachael Wall are doing a course on Psych-K in May 2015 so a blog to follow there), that can overwrite these recordings to beliefs, thought and opinions that will serve us better in our lives. Including helping to change your belief that you can be healthy.
After we are 11 years old we become more analytical and reflective on our environment. We think we have free choice, alas we do not. The problem is our subconscious mind does not analyse it just IS. When we were younger it was acting as a video recorder then when we get older its role changes to video player (well these days I mean DVD player of course), it just plays what is recorded. Unless you become aware you will keep replaying the same stories and creating your own destiny from potentially defunct scripts from our past, not the reality of the here and now.
Just observe what you think about over the next week – you will be surprised how much is the same thing over and over again.
There is so much more to this book. If you would like to understand more about your body and are open to learning how magnificent it is, along with the capability to regenerate and restore itself given the right tools and environment to do so this book is an essential read.

Both Lorna Kennard and Rachael Wall offer this method alongside their other therapies.
If so we have some great information to share with you to make sure that you don't spend your time frustrated with back pain after sleeping when all you want to do is sleep.
When we think of back pain and how to look after our backs, we often consider it in terms of what we do whilst we are awake. However, what happens while you sleep is also critical for preventing and resolving back pain at night and ensuring you get a restful nights sleep.
For some of you, a good nights sleep is a rarity, as bed and comfort don't necessarily go hand in hand. If you have ever suffered with back pain sleeping, you probably know first hand how crippling and uncomfortable a bed can be if it is not supporting you correctly. In fact a poor mattress and/or pillow can be the primary cause of strain and weakness to your back.
All being well we should be spending 7-8hrs in bed each night. That's almost a third of a day! Plenty of time for a poor sleeping posture to affect your body.
What should your bed and pillow be doing for you to prevent back pain after sleeping?
Ultimately we want our spines to stay in the correct alignment as much as possible. Yes you may move around a bit (or a lot) in your sleep, but your mattress and pillow should always be supporting you as you change positions.
By support we mean giving a little to adapt to the weight and contours of your body, but not sinking away under your weight creating a hammock effect!
A poorly supporting mattress and pillow will create incorrect pressure in the spine. If this pressure is maintained for 7-8hrs whilst you sleep it will be stretching some muscles and ligaments and simultaneously squashing and shortening others. These tension differences can cause weakness where tissues are being stretched something called creep. Also structures held in a short position can get tight and then have reduced function. Over the nights, months and years this can build up and create quite a strain on that area of your spine eventually resulting in back pain at night.
Within the neck it can lead to tension headaches, tightness in the shoulders and a loss in the range of movement. In the back this can cause weakness that puts you at risk of injury and back pain.
How to assess your mattress
When checking your current mattress (or indeed looking for a new one), take someone with you so they can see what happens to your spine when you lie on it.
Be sure to lie down for a good 10-15 minutes first so that you are fully relaxed into the bed. Also this gives time for the mattress to adjust to your weight, body shape and temperature, giving a much truer representation of how it will behave during the night. No time to be self conscious here, a new bed is a huge financial investment and something that should last you for the next 10 years or more.
You need to be sure that the mattress is giving the right support to keep your spine level. To check this lie on your side and have your friend/partner look for the following:
Don't forget the pillow
The pillow really is an extension of the support offered by the mattress. Here it is all about broadness! Your pillow needs to just fill the space between the mattress and your head. This will keep your neck in a line continuous with the rest of you spine. A badly fitting pillow could be the cause of your back pain after sleeping at night, as poor support of your neck will cause compensations further down your spine.
If you sleep on your side and have broad shoulders, you will need a thicker pillow than someone of a narrower build. This is where contour pillows work really well. The lip created by the contour shape fits nicely into the neck. It fills the gap of your shoulder width and then drops away to cradle the head and keep that level too. The same is true if you lie on your back.
Try to check a new pillow on the mattress you use at home. Also if you are looking for a new mattress, take your pillow with you to try with it. They need to work in relation to each other so should be checked together.
Watch this short video to find out more about how your pillow can help prevent back pain after sleeping.
General Considerations for a Great Nights Sleep
We hope you will now be able to wake up feeling rested and not getting back pain at night during your sleep.
If however you have now discovered that you need a new pillow then check out our tried and tested range of neck pillows to help ease back pain at night these appear on a separate website we have set up with even more advice and products to help you to stop back pain.
What would you think to something that treats your condition long after you have left the clinic? After much waiting for the course dates to come up Lorna Kennard and Rachael Wall recently attended a fascial taping course.
So what is taping and how can it help you?
Our skin is an extremely sensitive structure filled with loads of nerve endings that are constantly feeding back information to our brains. In addition to that our skin is connected to our soft tissues including muscles via something called fascia which runs throughout bodies like a 3D network knowing no bounds. If this becomes tight and restricted it can cause pain and contribute to long term muscle tension. Yes it can be treated and released through the treatments that we carry out but your recovery could be sped up through the use of tools such as fascial taping.
You may well have seen sports people with brightly coloured bits of tape but this is not just reserved for athletes. Tape can be used to:
The great news is once the tape has been applied you can keep it on for up to 5 days so it is a bit like having your personal therapist with you 24/7 for the duration you are wearing it. Fascial taping is a really helpful tool for helping you to get better as quickly as possible.
There are loads of different taping strategies and methods here you can see Rachael sporting some of Lorna's handy work. Apologies for the stripey socks and shorts mismatch, colour co-ordination hadn't been considered…
The tape that we will now be using is RockTape because of its superior quality. Both Lorna and Rachael will be using it in conjunction with their existing treatments.
Cancer is always a devastating diagnosis. It brings out our biggest fears and maybe for the first time forces us to confront our own mortality.
I was diagnosed with breast cancer 11 years ago at the age of 39. It was completely unexpected and completely rocked our world. We had two small children and if you had asked me then I would have said I was in good health and had a pretty balanced lifestyle.
Alongside the medical treatment I was recommended by a friend to consider complementary therapies and this felt like the right thing to do. I read lots of books and together with my husband we visited the Penny Brohn cancer centre in Bristol. This gave us a head start in nurturing 'mind-body-soul' and undoubtedly played an essential part in my recovery.
At the local hospital I was offered reflexology and this was very helpful alongside chemo. We found a spiritual healer and learnt to meditate and I even hugged trees. My whole focus was on wanting to live and this gave me both empowerment and peace of mind. Although I didn't know it at the time, this induced state of calm at an extremely challenging time put my body in the best state for healing and enabled my stress levels to drop considerably.
I completely changed my diet and was totally blown away but what I learnt about how food can directly change your biochemistry. It transpired I had a number of underlying health issues I'd not even really been aware of, instead relying on over the counter medications to manage niggly symptoms and take away pain.
My diet today bears no relation to the old me. I focus on real food – enjoying meat, fish, nut, seeds, fruit and copious amounts of vegtables (10 or more a day). And I feel fantastic! 11 years older and with greater energy, health and happiness than ever before. I don't even have a medicine cabinet now!
Through my journey back to health I inevitably made changes to my lifestyle. I retrained as a yoga teacher and Nutritional Therapist, which is my main focus now. I work with people to help them restore their own health alongside medical treatment, or preventatively so that they are less likely to get ill in the first place.
The results are phenomenal. I regular see people lose lots of weight by eating more (!), and often people are then able to work with their Doctor to reduce medications (diabetes and cardiovascular issues respond very well to nutritional therapy).
Cancer is obviously an area which is very important to me. I have recently set up the page www.facebook.com/AntiCancerWellnessAdvice as a forum for people to engage in healing around cancer. I offer individual consultations at the Lotus centre in Bourne End and support an integrative approach encompassing diet and lifestyle alongside medical treatment.

We very much work together as a team at the Lotus Centre. The main reasons are that we learn a lot from each other and more importantly one condition may need a number of different approaches to really achieve long lasting, sustainable improvements.
Because of this we thought it would be a great idea to do a number of articles explaining how we each view different conditions to help you understand more, and hopefully find the best treatment/s for you first time.
When two patients in one week stated, "Fibromyalgia well there's nothing that can be done for that is there?" that we thought this would be the perfect starting point. We hope you find it useful and if there is anything in particular you would like us to cover then please get in touch.
Nutritional Approaches To Fibromyalgia (FM)
Chronic muscular pain is a key feature of FM, though it may also be accompanied by aches, stiffness, fatigue, insomnia and depression. It doesn't arise from inflammation, rather the muscle pain is derived from a deficiency of cellular energy production which impacts the ability of the muscle to relax.
Hence nutrition may provide benefit alongside other therapies such as manual manipulation or massage, and emotional support.
A nutritional approach will look for underlying nutritional insufficiencies which may contribute to impaired energy production. Sometimes this can be deduced from a detailed health and lifestyle questionnaire, which tends to be when there are erratic or poor quality eating choices. Support would be provided to improve eating habits through education and lifestyle support.
When someone is already eating a very healthy diet, biochemical testing may pinpoint specific nutrient insufficiencies which may be unique to that individual. A combination of diet and supplements would be addressed in order to improve symptoms.
Nutrition is a powerful, individual and completely natural way to improve health and wellness.

Homeopathic Approach To Fibromyalgia
For me Fibromylagia symptoms can certainly be reduced, and in time can be alleviated. The name Fibromyalgia is a label, which is given to a set of symptoms, much the same as IBS, or inflammation. It is understanding why the person has presented with that particular set of symptoms.
There are a number of things that need investigating purely on a physical basis first, namely thyroid, adrenals status, inflammation, Vitamin and mineral status, especially Vit D, and Lymes disease. If it is also deemed useful for more effective treatment then getting a hair test, and testing for metal toxicity can help to shed light on part of the cause. This would be advised if it were felt necessary at the time.
The question still remains as to why that person has succumbed in this way, and it's therefore necessary to obtain a full medical history including parents and grandparents. From a homeopathic point if view we would be looking to see if there are any inherited weaknesses. There is likely to have been a trigger if the person is pre-disposed, and this could be a stressful event- anything from a virus to an accident.
It's also necessary to explore emotional elements too. Homeopathy treats the person as a whole and we cant separate the mind from the body. Many physical symptoms are a manifestation of emotional matters that may not have been dealt with and stored away somewhere within that person. These probably need addressing if a person is to improve.
There is also another theory regarding Fibromyalgia, and this is the link to the website for the possible causes and implications of Fibromyalgia
I'm currently investigating this, but it's an interesting theory.
Above all it's trying to put the jigsaw together for that individual person, and indeed it will be different for everyone. Homeopathy addresses both the physical and emotional side, and attempts to gradually peel away layers. Its not a 5 minute fix, it takes time to understand and unravel in order to obtain long term improvement.

A CranioSacral Therapists Approach to Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia results in abnormal sensations in specific points around the body. This is directly related to the functioning of the nervous system and how it communicates with these tender spots. Someone with Fibromyalgia may well also be suffering with fatigue, headaches and depression.
For a CranioSacral therapist the aim of the treatment would be to help the body to function better so that it can tolerate the changes that have lead to this condition, and also to release restrictions throughout the body which are contributing to both the condition and the various symptoms.
CranioSacral therapy is a hands on treatment which uses gentle palpation to release any unwanted tension in the soft tissues of the body. It also works to assess and treat any tension around and inside the skull, spine and pelvis, which may be impacting on the central nervous system's ability to function properly. Such restrictions can cause abnormal sensations on the skins surface or lead to the other symptoms often felt with Fibromyalgia, including tension headaches.
If the brain and spinal cord are working in a restricted environment whereby the bones of the skull are not able to make the small movements they are designed to do, this can put a general strain on the functioning of the body, making it harder to complete everyday tasks. The light touch work in CranioSacral therapy can help to restore the movement of the skull, allowing the body to function better and ultimately look after itself.
People who have tried CranioSacral therapy for Fibromyalgia often report that it helps to ease symptoms after only a few sessions. Due to the light touch it is more easily tolerated by sufferers too. To look into the effectiveness of CST for Fibromyalgia further, in 2010 a study was conducted with 92 Fibromyalgia sufferers to see if CranioSacral therapy would be of benefit. It found that this therapy significantly reduced the pain levels at 13 of the 18 tender points for those receiving the treatment, and 14months on after the last session reduced pain had maintained.
Lorna Kennard, the clinic's CranioSacral therapist, is also a practitioner of Sports Massage and Visceral Manipulation. To provide the best treatment possible for the individual concerned, it may be that she would use other soft tissue techniques from these disciplines to enhance the treatment. Such methods may include Trigger Point work to specifically isolate the tender points and encourage the soft tissue there to relax. Visceral Manipulation may also be done along side the CranioSacral work to help gently mobilise any restrictions around the organs of the body. If it was felt that either of these treatment methods would be beneficial then this would be discussed with you first.
A Cognitive Hypnotherapy Approach To Fibromyalgia
Looking at this statement from a Cognitive Hypnotherapy view point the first thing I hear is the limiting belief that "there is no solution".
If a client came to me and said this I would wonder where this belief has come from. Have they been given it by the medical profession or is it because all treatments have failed to help so far. Or something else.
For someone to be truly well the body and mind must be working together. Pain is the body's way of telling us something is not right and to take action.
I would look at exploring the client's belief system around the disease. If your unconscious and conscious mind believes you cannot get better then it will be an uphill struggle for the body to repair itself. Often clients will focus on what they want don't want to have anymore – the pain – but when asked what would your life be like without it, they can't imagine it. Helping them to imagine a future without the disease/less pain/pain free days helps the mind believe in the possibility of change and hence the body and mind work stronger together with the same goal.
On a practical day to day pain management view point I would work with the client to give them tools to reduce the pain they feel so again giving them more control over the disease than they previously had.
Finally I would check to see if the mind believes there is a secondary gain from being unwell. If it believes it is better to be this way than pain free then again we would work together to find ways of letting go of this belief.

A McTimoney Chiropractic Approach To Fibromyalgia
There are a number of considerations from a McTimoney Chiropractic point of view with regard to whether Fibromyalgia is an accurate diagnosis as this is difficult because there is no one definitive test that can be done. By taking a thorough case history we may be able to identify another cause to the symptoms you are experiencing.
The major factor is the presence of multiple areas of muscle tenderness. These areas of muscle tenderness are also muscle trigger point areas. Trigger points are overactive sections of a muscle, which often have referred pain patterns. These are points that a massage (soft tissue) therapist would actually work on to treat and release a muscle.
The trigger point areas are:
As a McTimoney Chiropractor our main focus is to identify if there are any misalignments of the spine that could be sufficient to cause irritation and therefore pain leading to concomitant muscle tension. By treating the misalignment the muscles can then release, as there is no longer tension, irritation or the body does not have to protect from further misalignment. This means that the trigger points in the diagram below may be the result of the misalignments themselves.
Potential causes of misalignments can be established after taking a detailed history. Events that happened many years previously can build up and cause symptoms much later. By freeing up restricted joints and allowing better movement allows muscles to relax with the result of the improvement in aches and pains. During a McTimoney Chiropractic treatment your whole body is assessed and treated each time so we are always working on multiple areas to help re-align the whole body.
Misalignments may also be caused by emotional events and stresses that if unresolved do not allow the body to be able to heal. Strategies and lifestyle changes maybe necessary to help deal with on-going stress in a better way or refer you to a more suitable therapy if more deep rooted situations need to be addressed.
Sue Bayley is a McTimoney Chiropractor at The Lotus Centre.
Rachael Wall (in addition to Lorna Kennard) also does visceral manipulation alongside the McTimoney Chiropractic treatment. This gentle treatment can release tension around organs. All of our internal organs are held in place with fascia and ligaments if these are restricted e.g. following surgery and the scar tissue that results or accidents then your body will protect these areas from further damage. They are vital organs and essential for your survival so it is far better from your bodies point of view for you to be stiff and in pain that risk an organ being damaged.
Emotions can also be held within organs of the body for example you have a car accident that's not fault and the other driving wasn't concentrating. Justifiably you are really annoyed and angry at the same time as the impact happened (the impact and emotion are now stored in your body together) you were thrown forward and restrained by the seatbelt, which caused tension, to a ligament attaching your liver to the diaphragm. Only a small amount of tension all the same but you breath on average around 20,000 times a day so with each breath this tension is still there and builds up over time and causes tension and stiffness (the liver is a huge organ) so it may be that you have tried manual therapies before but because the underlying tension around that organ has never been worked on and released your misalignments keep coming back so you never fully improve. Not only this you can release the emotional charge at the same time. The connection here is that every time you feel angry and annoyed your body has the physical response of pain and tension at the same time. A repetitive circle of physical and emotional cause to your chronic pain.
We hope some of the areas we have mentioned resonate with you and perhaps opened up a new perspective and given hope that there is help out there for Fibromyalgia.
Last weekend (11th May 2014) I went to see Deepak Chopra talk about The Future Of Wellbeing. During the day he shared some fascinating insights from the latest research about our health in relation to our new understanding the body from the view of Quantum theory.
The way we look at health and healing is changing due to recent ideas about how the body works and relates to it's surroundings. I wanted to share some of his ideas with you in the hope that it may help you cope with our modern day life and the challenges you face.
A big area that was covered at the Deepak Chopra talk was stress. What is it and how to deal with it. Stress is one of the biggest issues in our modern world. It is the cause of a lot of illness and poor health. It is also a big factor in your personal happiness and enjoyment of life, so it is this element of his talk that I want to share with you now.
In order to understand how you can manage stress, first you need to understand what it is, where is comes from and how it impacts on your physical body, not just your emotional state.
The stress centre of the Brain:
Your brain is made up of different sections broadly divided into 3 ages through time of the brain.
1 – Reptilian Brain – Oldest part of the brain located deep in the centre and the first to develop. It's responsible for our vital functions and survival mechanism.
2 – Lymbic Brain – The mammalian brain, which is our emotional brain. It helps maintain balance of our emotions and hormones. It is also the part responsible for our dreams and daydreaming,
3 – Cortical Brain – the newest part which separates us from the rest of the animal world. It gives our our self-awareness and rational thought.
When it comes to stress, we need to look back at the oldest part of our brain, the Retilian brain. As I have mentioned, this is the core of our survival instinct. It is a reactive brain whose need for species survival results in 4 main actions:
Fleeing, Fighting, Feeding and Reproduction..
Back in the good old days when we all lived in caves and shared the wild with some very different animals, this brain kicked in to react to things before we have time to think, trying to keep us alive. For example, when you turned a corner and suddenly found yourself confronted with a sabre-toothed tiger, this is the part of the brain that would switch into gear and direct your blood to your muscles so that you could run away as fast as possible, or fight then eat him!
Unfortunately it hasn't evolved and changed as quickly as our surroundings have. This means that whilst we no longer have sabre-toothed tigers to worry about, it will still evoke the same physical response when we feel threatened today. In modern times this has become our stress response.
How Stress Affects You Physically
When we feel threatened or stressed, it triggers the innate, inbuilt reaction in your reptilian brain. At that point the number one priority is survival, so all resources are directed to the areas of the body that will help you survive, namely your muscles. You need as much energy around your muscles as you can to be able to confront or flee from the danger. It also activates your Sympathetic Nervous System to increase your heart rate and blood pressure, increase adrenaline levels, dilate your pupils to improve vision and thicken the blood to minimise blood loss if you are injured.
In this state the body is not concerned about healing or restoration so the Sympathetic Nervous System also reduces digestion, reduces insulin to help keep glucose storage low so it is readily available in the blood system, and reduces salivation.
Once the danger is over, the Parasympathetic nervous system turns on to calm everything back down again and restore balance. It reverses all the changes made and also increase the restorative and healing abilities of the body again. Additionally endorphin levels increase which give you that feel good factor.
Stress and Modern Living
Now you have an understanding of what happens when you are in a stressful state. Think of all the times in the last day or week where you have felt stressed. No matter the level of stress; anxiety, apprehension the response by the body would have been the same. You would have been in a place of high adrenalin and alertness, but with no capacity to heal. Your digestion will have been impaired and your ability to fight illness and infection low and very little feel good chemicals will be floating around your body.
If you consider the pace of modern living, not to mention the continual stimulation our brains are hit with from TV, phones, work, and general noise, it can cause over stimulation of this stress/survival response. Some people spend the majority of their lives in a stress state. It's clear to see how such a way of life can easy cause ill health, fatigue and low levels of happiness.
Managing Stress
At the 'Future Of Wellbeing' talk, Deepak Chopra went through a very simple way of helping to reduce the stress response whenever you feel it's taking over. Like a lot of things its simplicity makes it very effective and an achievable way to cope with modern stresses immediately.
All you have to do is remember to STOP:
S – Stop
T – Take 3 deep breaths and SMILE - Fill the whole of your lungs with each in breath and slowly letting each breath out. This will slow down your Sympathetic Nervous System and calm the mind. It also improves the oxygen levels in the blood allowing more oxygen to reach the brain so you can think clearer!
As you do this smile! Smile with the whole of your body and notice how this changes the way you feel instantly.
O – Observe Any Body Sensations - What are you feeling, thinking, sensing in your body at that time? Where is there tension? What thoughts are going through your head? How does your body feel? An awareness of this gives you space to make changes and alter the sensations.
P – Procede With Awareness And Compassion - Be kind to yourself and non-judgemental. We all get stress for a wide variety of things. Sometimes we get stressed and we don't really know why. Being aware of your feelings, responses and reactions gives you the chance to change those things and put a new perspective on the situation.
We cannot quickly change the world we live in but we can change the way we live in it and how we respond to it. Don't let yourself become a victim of its speed and over stimulation. Give yourself STOP moments to calm the body and the mind allowing you to live more of your life in a healing, restoring and clear thinking space.
I hope this simple exercise help you maintain a healthier and happier life.

I have recently treated a few people with severe and debilitating facial pain. They were suffering with something called Trigeminal Neuralgia, quite a rare condition (affecting 4 or 5 people in every 100,000 each year) that is often mistaken for a dental issue or ear problem. I thought it an ideal opportunity to help increase the awareness of this problem and also share a case study with you from a lady who came to see me last year (2013).
Trigeminal Neuralgia
Described as a sudden, sever, stabbing pain to the side of the face occurring in attacks lasting a few seconds to a few minutes. This is often considered to be the worst pain know to man, and often described as being like electric shocks. Imagine the worst tooth ache, the worst ear ache and the worst sinus pain put together and add a sharp shooting or burning nerve pain to the mix and you have a vague idea of the feeling of Trigeminal Neuralgia.
It almost always develops on one side of the face only, and usually this is the right side – don't ask me why. Thankfully an attack to the left and right sides is extremely rare. This is a condition that gradually develops over time and as the most common area for the pain to occur is the cheek, lower jaw or teeth, most people tend to and up at their dentist as a first port of call, complaining of tooth ache. Sometimes they undergo several dental procedures before it is recognised that the problem is coming form the Trigeminal Nerve and not the teeth.
Trigeminal Neuralgia can also lead to pain around the eye and/or forehead so sometimes the optician gets a visit or it is thought to be a migraine.
No matter where it starts, the symptoms always get gradually worse until the pain becomes very debilitating to the persons quality of life. The slightest touch or sensation to the side of the face can trigger a painful attack and leave the sufferer paralysed with the level of pain.
Causes of Trigeminal Neuralgia
There is still a lot of debate about the cause of Trigeminal Neuralgia but the general consensus is that it is due to compression of the Trigeminal Nerve (More about this nerve later), leading to misfiring and heightened sensitivity of the nerve.
Research suggest the apx 80-90% of cases are caused by pressure on this nerve close to where it enters the brain. Others studies have shown 64% of cases investigated to be pressure from an artery and 36% to be due to a vein.
There may also be underlying issues causing pressure on the Trigeminal Nerve including
The Trigeminal Nerve
There are 12 pairs of nerves supplying the head and neck called cranial nerves. The Trigeminal Nerve is the 5th Cranial nerve and the largest. It feeds information between the brain the the mouth, face and forehead giving us sensations of touch temperature and pain in that region and also controlling the muscles that allow us to chew our food.
As it arrives at the head it splits into 3 branches:
With Trigeminal Neuralgia if is most often the middle branch that is affected and the upper branch least often involved. The type of symptoms felt will depend on which, and how many branches of this nerve are involved.
The three branches enter the brain through holes in the skull close to the ear and under the cheek bone (the foramen rotundum and foramen ovale). They then join together and enter the brain tissue at the base of the brain.
Types of Trigeminal Neuralgia
There are 3 main types of Trigeminal Neuralgia defined by the cause and symptom type.
Trigeminal Neuralgia type 1 – The most common form where the sufferer gets piercing and stabbing pain, but the pain is not constant and tends to have known triggers e.g. light touch, head movements, shaving, chewing. It is also know to be idiopathic, whereby the cause cannot be identified.
Trigeminal Neuralgia type 2 - This is the rarer version involving a more constant pain which is often described as aching, throbbing and burning sensations in between the more stabbing and sharper acute attacks.
Symptomatic Trigeminal Neuralgia - This is when the pain is due to an underlying cause such as a cyst.
Treatment Options
Mainstream medicine sees Trigeminal Neuralgia as a chronic condition which gradually gets worse over time and has no known cure. It often becomes a very debilitating condition severely affecting a person's quality of life and can lead to depression from living with the symptoms.
Your doctor or consultant will give two options to achieve some level of relief:
1 – Medication
Regular pain killers will rarely have any affect on the pain. Often prescription includes epilepsy medication such as Carbamazepine or gabapentin, or even antidepressants. Such drugs influence the nervous system, slowing down the nerve impulses inhibiting it's ability to send pain messages. Often these only give temporary relief and dosages are gradually increased and the symptoms worsen.
Additionally such medication can result in a range of side effects. The most common ones include:
2 – Surgery
If pain levels persist or the side effects of the medication become too debilitating there are also different surgical options. There are different surgical options all of which are designed to reduce the pressure on the Trigeminal Nerve from surrounding blood vessels.
Non-Invasive Options:
Invasive Options:
Studies indicate 70-90% of surgical intervention gives effective long term relief, but there is still a chance the pain can return. However there are also potential side effects from surgery including hearing loss or facial numbness.
There are addition treatments that people have found helpful including:
It is the latter treatment CranioSacral therapy that I want to discuss with you in the next blog. This is still a lesser know therapy and very poorly understood as to it's potential and the conditions it can help. I would love to share with you a case study of a lady who came to see me for help with Trigeminal Nerve pain and the results we were able to achieve.

The commercial itself is pretty funny. It goes through some long buildup of how you can fight a lot of things and then at the end it says, "but you should never, ever, fight George St. Pierre." At that point they focus on GSP's face while he's all smiles and not looking menacing in the slightest lol. GSP is the man though. It's good to see mma fighters get major sponsors like Gatorade.

Mr Abate and His Staff were GREAT! Very knowledgeable and treated My Family and Myself with the utmost respect. I would recommend him to anyone!

James Abate is a very good lawyer. I had a very good experience with his office too. There are no promises in this profession but he tried his best and everything worked out as expected. I was very relaxed and confident having James as my lawyer and would recommend him to anyone in need of a traffic violation representative.
Posted by Kboy
James and his staff were always respectful during a difficult and embarrassing time. I was always in charge of how the case went - no decisions were made without my approval. James is very knowledgeable and tries to find different angles to win your case. He was always available by phone and made evening appointments to fit my schedule. I would definitely recommend him.
Posted by Anthonize

Posted by a Criminal Defense client
James is by far one of the best lawyers I have ever delt with. He took on my case. He was honest and straight forward throughout the process . Is personable, is willing to work things out with you and most of all fair. His staff and himself handled everything promptly with the most professionalism seen. I extremely rate this lawyer with every possible with comfortably.

I was charged with possession of CDS in a motor vehicle (marijuana). Unfortunately this was the 3rd time i was arrested for possession within the span of a year, and the 4th time altogether. By all rights I should have lost my license for 2 years and/or served a 30 day jail sentence. Mr. Abate, after reviewing the video of my arrest, was able to get the prosecutor to agree to 1 years probation and a suspended 30 day jail sentence. During our first consultation, Mr.Abate advised me to enter myself into a drug rehab program, which i did. The reason for this was to get leniency from the judge, since the judge decides if i can keep my license. As it turns out, the judge did look favorably on this. I should not have a license to drive right now, but because of Mr. Abate's advise and his plea to the judge, I am still able to drive and keep my employment. The judge even remarked to me that I was lucky to have the picked the counsel that I did, because without him i would have been screwed. I highly recommend James Abate if you are looking for an extremely competent lawyer who will get the most favorable results for your case. Also, he will not try to empty your wallet. I would not consider his fee high at all, especially considering how good he was as my counsel.
Posted by Katherine
Thanks very much to James and his wonderful office staff! James' office kept me informed of everything as it was happening and quickly answered any questions I had. It was very helpful having James by my side when I went to the courthouse. He was knowledgeable about all of the court proceedings, clarified what was happening in the courtroom, and spoke well on my behalf. Definitely made the entire process less stressful.
Posted by a Domestic Violence client
Mr. Abate just saved me from false accusations of domestic violence. He took the case to trial and showed that I was innocent. A conviction would have ended my career and kept me from my children. His attention and dedication to the case made me feel like he was personally invested in the case. His staff was excellent and would answer all my questions and kept me calm. I am so glad that I called Mr. Abate and so thankful for him vindicating my innocence. He was prepared and uncovered my girlfriend's criminal history.

we don't see things as they are, we see things as we are
After living in a lot of very different places, I still don't have all the answers, but I have a pretty good idea of what's important to me: Character, passion, honesty, an open mind and a willingness to try almost anything, are things that I strive for and hope to find in others. I love meeting new people and spending time with the people I love. My friends are very important to me, and despite them living in the four corners of the world, I make every effort to fly out to see them whenever I can, or maybe that's just an excuse I use to travel. :) If I can squeeze in some diving or running while I'm there then I'm even happier. I just moved to Southern California after living in Montreal for the past few years, so I'm hoping to meet and get to know someone I can explore this place with!

Originally written on Patriots Life | Last updated 1/18/13
FOXBORO, MA - JANUARY 10: Head coach Bill Belichick of the New England Patriots looks on against the Baltimore Ravens during the 2010 AFC wild-card playoff game at Gillette Stadium on January 10, 2010 in Foxboro, Massachusetts. (Photo by Elsa/Getty Images)
Boston Heralds' writer Jeff Howe wrote a fantastic article for Friday's paper about New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick. Definitely give it a read if you can; "Preparing for success: Pats follow lead of Belichick with unmatched passion for study". The article explains something that fans have always known, yet sometimes don't think twice about. Bill Belichick's passion for football. Players are always highly praised for their work ethic. This is a characteristic that separates the good from the greats, and the greats from the legends. Quarterback Tom Brady is historically famous for his incomparable drive. That is historically however, as the Patriots now have a younger star that is the first player in the team's complex, and also the last one out. Linebacker Jerod Mayo is the culprit, and he takes much pride in it. This work ethic makes is why not many are surprised that the defensive captain was elected to the Pro Bowl for the second time. It's hard to imagine ...

I am renting out the entire apartment in the heart of Chinatown.
Cozy, clean, 2 bedroom European style apartment, right in the heart of Manhattan/Chinatown. The apartment is pretty easy 4th floor walk up in a classical old New York building.
The apartment is uncluttered in a good condition and clean. The bathroom has a shower with toilet, hot water and good water pressure. I provide clean bedding and FREE Wi-Fi. Kitchen is available with over sized fridge for use. YES, there is air-conditioning in your room and in the winter very good heating.
Safe and super charming neighborhood (no hipsters yet), "The only part of Manhattan still looking like in 1950's" as someone told me. It's a a great location, short to walk to Soho, Tribeca, Lower East Side.
Laundromat and coffee shop are downstairs in the building (Coffee in this part of town is $1) There's also 24/7 Deli on the corner.
The apartment is walking distance to lower Manhattan, SOHO, the West Village and Tribeca. The Brooklyn Bridge is a 15 min walk from my house. Times Square is 20 minutes by subway.
The MTA Bus stop is 2 minutes from the house and goes all the way uptown on the east side. Subway is on the same street, 7 minutes walk from the house. F train (East Broadway stop). The apartment is located between the Manhattan and the Brooklyn Bridge. Good location for runners, two blogs from the water. It's a safe and at night pretty quiet neighborhood. Lots of great and affordable restaurants around.
I am very easy going woman, filmmaker originally from Prague in her 30's, living in NYC past 12 years. I can help you with tips where to go in the city, what to see and what to avoid. Please email me a bit about yourself and what are you planning to do in NYC. And of course any questions you may have.
Thank you!
Guests have a access to the entire apartment. Kitchen, bathroom, two bedrooms. The place can host 3-4 people maximum.
I will meet the guest.
I was told that Chinatown is how New York was in the 50's. It's very cinematic, quiet at night, busy and colorful during the day. Authentic part of New York. Hipster free. World on it's own.
M15 bus, F train stop East Broadway, City Hall subway. You can walk from here pretty much anywhere. The Brooklyn Bridge is 15 min walk from the apartment.
Living room space I use as my studio. I keep the door closed so we both have enough privacy. If i am here i am usually working.
Access to the entire apartment, bathroom, free wifi.
I will meet you to hand you the keys and explain anything if needed.
Chinatown is like Manhattan in the 50's, someone told me. It's very authentic neighborhood, fast moving, very busy, very cinematic but quiet at night.
The F train is only 10 min walk from the apartment. Also near is City Hall subway station. Short walk to the Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridge. 15min walk to SOHO. You can be in Central Park in 35min. Bus M15, located 5min from the house goes all the way to Harlem on the east side.
You are free to use everything in the kitchen and any tea and coffee you would like. I will provide you with clean bedding and towel. Please no drugs, visitors or animals in the apartment. It's very easy, not complicated apartment.If you want any help navigating the city I will be more then happy to help out, please let me know!

Very easy communication with Bara, and the space appears as listed. It's small, but well located, though quite far in to Chinatown for those wanting a closer Soho walk.
Thanks Bara!
Bara's place was exactly as promised -- clean, comfortable, and very quiet (esp for NYC). I would certainly stay again. Bara was super easy to communicate with.
Bara was extremely welcoming and co-operative. Went out of her way to ensure we were able to obtain easy access to the apartment as soon as we arrived. The apartment is very clean and comfortable and everything re linen and bath towels etc was provided.
Nice apartment. Well located.
Bara is very nice and she makes me very confortable. She is very available and helpful. She has good plans and shares them.
The appartement is well located, quiet and but a little dark and warm.
The reservation was canceled 39 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.
Don't look any further, stay here! The apartment is small but cozy and equipped with everything you may need. It's conveniently located in Chinatown close to SoHo, Brooklyn and several metro lines, sorrounded by tasty and cheap food places. I haven't met Bara in person, but she made me feel welcome even before I arrived. The communication was very easy and she gave me plenty of good advice. I would stay here again.

A proposito dell'host, Bara
I work as a filmmaker and film editor in NYC. Currently I am working on a feature documentary film about Bauhaus cottages in the USA. I do short animations and installations.
I am originally from Prague and I live in Manhattan since 2007, before that I lived and studied 5 years in Boston. In 2006 I lived and studied in Amsterdam. I go to Europe often, but NYC is my home. I love traveling, I been in Australia, Asia, Europe, Africa and I wish I do it more often.
I was told I am good NYC guide, so I can give you some tips for the good and non touristy places if you want.
I am very easy going, friendly person, no drama queen. I am often out of the house and if I am here I keep to my self, usually working, so you will have lot of space and privacy.

The U.S. Senate education committee fleshed out its bipartisan package of legislation to renew the Higher Education Act Tuesday, calling for $17 billion in new funds for Pell Grant recipients and $18 billion in cuts to student loan providers over five years.
Looking around the crowded Senate hearing room Wednesday, it was relatively easy, at first glance, to sort out the winners and losers as the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions approved a package of legislation to renew the Higher Education Act.

If you're set on something new, start by checking out the deal of the day at your favorite stores. Sears and Home Depot have daily deals, while Lowe's and Northern Tool & Equipment offer weekly specials in various departments.
Never buy a lawnmower and a mulcher at the same time – any mower worth its blades will come with a built-in leaf shredder. And chances are you'll pay a lot less for the all-in-one lawnmower than if you'd bought both products separately.
Here are a few other great combination yard tools:
Pro Tip: Be sure to check the engine specs before you go with an all-in-one tool. You want to make sure it has enough power to do the big jobs.
Yard work is more fun (well, relatively speaking) when your tools roar with a gas-powered engine. But since today's electric yard equipment works nearly as well the gas-powered options, it makes more fiscal sense to go with the best deal. That'll be different based on the tool:
So compare your options, and if it's cheaper to go electric, you might just have to sacrifice that audible sign of power.
This is not the season of sales for yard equipment. But, if you use these tips, you'll still save big on everything you need to get your yard back in shape.

@shermayneoffers Good luck finding the perfect mower! If you go the used route, I recommend looking for one with a Honda engine. Those last forever.

We are on the hunt for a good deal on a quality lawn mower as well. I'm looking into deals of the day and also searching on craigslist! You never know what you can find!

Former child actress Kirsten Dunst would prefer any children she has not to follow in her footsteps.
Kirsten Dunst wouldn't encourage her children to pursue a showbiz career.
The 32-year-old actress - who is in a relationship with her 'On The Road' co-star Garrett Hedlund - struggles with the idea of her future kids wanting to pursue acting and although she wouldn't ban them from the industry altogether, she would be wary of the pitfalls of fame.
She mused: ''I would obviously like them to be happy and if being actors makes them happy, great, I wouldn't stop them. But I wouldn't push them into it. Especially as young kids. Even though it worked out for me, it's still very hard.
''I also wouldn't want to bring my kid up in Los Angeles. If I hadn't grown up there, I think I would hate that city. I'm filming in New Orleans at the moment and it reminded me how lovely it is to walk around without being followed by a gang of paparazzi.''
Kirsten, who got her big movie break aged 11 in 'Interview with the Vampire', is grateful to director Sofia Coppola for casting her in 2000's 'The Virgin Suicides', marking her transition into adult roles.
Asked about the director who had shaped her career, she told Madame Figaro magazine: ''Without question, Sofia Coppola with 'The Virgin Suicides'. I was a teenager and she awoke the woman within me, she showed me what I was capable of, she transformed me in a way like no other.
'''Marie-Antoinette' was another important film. We're still very close, but because she lives in New York, I don't see her as often as I'd like.''

Posted October 13, 2012 on AP on Fox
The Yankees added reliever Cody Eppley to their active roster for the AL championship series against Detroit and dropped infielder Eduardo Nunez. Detroit did not make any changes to its 25-man roster for the best-of-seven series. Teams had until 10 a.m. Saturday to submit their rosters. Adding Eppley gives the Yankees 12 pitchers for the series. The 27-year-old right-hander was 1-2 with a 3.33 ERA in 46 innings over 59 relief appearances. Nunez was 1 for 5 in the five-game division series win over Detroit, starting Game 2 as the designated hitter and coming into two other games off the bench. Detroit is carrying 11 pitchers.

NPR's 'Car Talk' Duo Retiring: 'One-Hour Work Week Was Too Much'
The public radio brothers are hanging up their microphones after 35 years on air.
NPR's Click and Clack will no longer be on call to help America with those weird noises our cars make.
NPR announced Tom and Ray Magliozzi, the duo behind public radio's popular Car Talk call-in program, are retiring this fall. Their final shows will coincide with their 25th anniversary with NPR, and their 35th anniversary behind the microphones for Boston's NPR affiliate, WBUR.
PHOTOS: Top 10 Highest Paid Music Artists
The notoriously self-deprecating brothers joked their lazy tendencies were pushing them into retirement, saying one hour a week was too much work for them.
"So, we can finally answer the question, if my brother retired, how would he know?" Ray wrote in a blog post.
Although Tom, 75, and Ray, 63, made poking fun at themselves a staple of the show, both boast some serious brainpower. The brothers hold degrees from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Tom taught as a college professor.
Car Talk will live on in a sense. Shows culled from the 1,200 programs they've aired will be edited and include occasional updates from the brothers. Both will continue to blog and engage fans on social media.
"When we listen to the stuff that's in our archives, it still makes us laugh," Tom wrote. "We're hoping to be like "I Love Lucy" and air ten times a day on "NPR at Nite" in 2075.
