6 Tips on How to Get Pregnant Faster NEW !



Are you attempting pregnancy for the first time? Have you been trying to have a baby for quite a long time without success? In either case, you are looking for a few valuable tricks and tips to get pregnant as fast as possible. How can you create good conditions to increase your chance to get pregnant? Let's answer to this question by means of a quiz.

1) Is there a favorable position to help you get pregnant faster?

Actually, experts agree that there isn't a specific sexual position to help you conceive faster. However, according to the majority of gynecologists, the missionary position (while the woman is lying on her back) would be a helpful position facilitating sperm to head towards the uterus and the fallopian tubes. Others say the doggy style is better.

2) Is having an orgasm necessary to conceive a baby?

Conception (part of the reproduction process) and orgasm (part of the sexual satisfaction) are two different matters. It is not necessary to have an organism in order to conceive a baby but a female climax would be able to help in a way. How? A female organism occurs with uterine contractions and would be able to propel or push the sperm further into the fallopian tubes.

3) Is it true that dying to get pregnant is an obstacle to conceive? 

Explaining your concern about not getting pregnant fast to your friends, you may have heard this retort: "You think too much about that! You'd better forget it and it will come by itself!" It's quite easy to say, isn't it? The fact remains that there is some truth in what your friends say! Don't stress over the idea of becoming pregnant. Stress is going to affect your menstrual cycle and it will be more difficult to determine when you are most fertile. Additionally, stress would be able to prevent the ovulation. Relax as much as possible!

4) Does it help to eat chocolate or spinach?

Not really! What you must do is to avoid fast food and have a balanced diet of whole foods rich in vegetables, fruits, and grains. Eat also food rich in folic acid!

5) I'm smoking, is it an obstacle to get pregnant?

Smoking is not really an obstacle to get pregnant. It happens to many women. But it has been shown that smoking can affect fertility in both men and women. It's far better to cut down on smoking.

6) How can I determine when I am most fertile? 

You can count the days, check your cervical mucus or even register your basal body temperature.

Five Tips to Overcome Stress

Tip One

Being right can be overrated.

Sometimes an argument can ensue if you are really wanting to be right about something. Don't sweat the small stuff. If you absolutely know that you are right, but the other person either doesn't want to see your point of view, or is refusing to listen, then to keep at them, wanting to demonstrate to them that you are correct - will provoke and cause more stress for you. Let it go. You know deep down within that you have all the facts, but for the sake of your own peace - stay calm and let it go.

Tip Two

Don't over-analyse situations

I have looked at my budget, looked at my bank account, looked at my work schedule, gone back mentally over situations thinking that I may have caused somebody some angst, wondered what I coulda-shoulda-woulda in all those useless time wasting endeavours of trying to over-analyse what is going on in my situation. I would have been better off thinking that what is, what is... and if I can't change it, or do anything about it, then just leave it be. Do what I can, and then stop thinking about it.

Tip Three

Don't sweat the small stuff

This is a good one for parents. I have two teenagers and a toddler. I have two autistic teenagers and a partner gets frustrated with toddler mess and other things. A lot of the time, I have to compromise and bend around and twist, for the sake of peace. I have learned that sometimes the little things don't really matter. The messy bedroom, the teenage floor-robe of clothes all over the floor, emptying the bin after asking a gazillion times for the teenagers to do it. Concentrate on what matters - peaceful living. Ask yourself, and get away somewhere quiet if you need to, does this situation matter in the overall scheme of things? Have you got clean clothes, clean dishes, clean toilet and generally not tripping over things? The family wants to watch a particular DVD and you can't stand those kinds of movies. In the end, I have decided that to let them go and do what they want to do, and I can go and do something else to entertain myself.

Tip Four

Don't take on things that aren't your responsibility

Do you get caught up in being overly concerned in what other people are doing? Are you begging your partner to come to the movies with you to see a particular thing, and they just don't want to go? Can you make up your mind to set to yourself, and keep your issues separate from other people, or go on to the movies by yourself? You aren't responsible for another person's happiness, and they aren't responsible for your happiness, so maintain responsibility for attending to your own issues, and let other people be. Are other people prying into your business? Quickly put it to rest by saying that you would prefer not to discuss it, and don't offer your opinion freely. People quickly end up blaming you for their problems if they have asked for your opinions, and then the situation goes belly up. I end up telling people that they have the capacity to solve their own issues, or refer them to seeking professional advice.

Tip Five

Take care of your own legitimate needs
You have a legitimate need not to be a martyr for other people. If you want to help others, by all means help them, but don't compromise on your own legitimate needs such as getting enough sleep, not going out with friends to an expensive restaurant if you really can't afford it, getting enough exercise and getting enough rest and healthy food.

How to Create an Atmosphere of Success

Negative thinking can colour all the aspects of your life so that everything looks dismal. When you change the way that you think, and what you think about, you can begin to see the world through different eyes, and create an atmosphere of success.

Begin the day by being grateful

Attitudes of gratitude and thankfulness help you to focus on what you have; look around you - do you have dirty dishes? That means that you have eaten, and haven't gone hungry. Are you able to walk around? That means that you are healthy and not restricted in your mobility. Do you have friends and family you can talk to? That means that you are not lonely and isolated. Meditate and think on the many things you have to be thankful for.

Practice random acts of kindness

It is often expressed by many philosophers that you reap what you sow. When you sow happiness for others, by expressing encouragement and kindness towards others, you generate positive feelings in others towards yourself. It also gives you a mental boost, knowing that you have made another person joyful today. Many movements such as random acts of kindness, or the pay it forward movement, or suspended coffee movements thrive on being kind. It is generally part of a person's nature to want to be kind to others, foster that natural instinct in yourself, in order to improve the quality of your own life.

Spend time enjoying yourself

If you are always working, and not giving yourself a break, you set yourself up for prolonged stress and for burnout. It is important to rest and to relax, to enjoy yourself, and make time for activities and hobbies you enjoy. The brain and body both need to have time out, so when you sleep, rest, and spend time in creative pursuits, you work with your natural bodily rhythms which complement a life of work and balance in other areas of your life.

Many people follow spiritual pursuits in order to maintain mental wellness

Studies have shown that people who engage in spiritual pursuits, such as prayer, reading the Bible, and belonging to a church congregation have better health outcomes than people who do not follow spiritual practices. The benefits of belonging to a community of people are natural, in that they provide for social reinforcement, mutual encouragement, and extended systems of support amongst peers.

Practicing deliberate positive thinking improves mental health

When you deliberately think positive thoughts, and affirming thoughts about yourself, you are rewiring the brain into being in a thriving state, where you are less prone to be susceptible to the negative effects of stress. People who regularly affirm themselves and are not haughty about their achievements, but are generous towards themselves in self-compassion have been shown to be more resilient in life through a number of psychological studies.

A lot of people have experienced episodes of depression, anxiety disorders and mental health
problems, due to a number of reasons, including trauma, chronic stress and worries about day to day issues. They may also have been subject to burnout from overwork, or the burdens of being a carer. Through the practice of surrounding yourself with positive people, people who are compassionate, and like minded people who choose to see things as always being hopeful, you can change your life, and look forward to better outcomes for your life. Positive thinking and the reinforcement of happy, likeminded and encouraging peers will set your course for success.

Three Ways to Overcome Anxiety

Panic attacks are no picnic. You can be walking along and pushing your shopping trolley at the supermarket and then boom! Your heart starts racing, and your chest tightens up, and you feel like you can't breathe, and your palms get sweaty, and you feel like you need to run and disappear somewhere. Learn right now how you can make them evaporate for good.

Anxiety is also a very distressing state of mind; if you are experiencing frequent panic attacks, this can be an indicator of burnout related to chronic stress. Seek help from your medical practitioner, who can refer you to counselling and support you in removing anxiety from your life.

1. Give yourself extra time to do things to prevent panic attacks.

When you are rushing around, you can be more prone to panic attacks. Start your day at least 15 minutes earlier, and spend some time quietly by yourself in the morning. This will give you more time to be quiet and relaxed, so you will be able to be more at peace with yourself and not feel as though you have to be pressured so much. Practice mindfulness, and make sure that you get yourself somewhere safe, and remember to breathe. If you need to exit from public, try to call a friend to come and assist you if you need it.

2. When you are in the middle of a panic attack:

Get control of your breathing. Breathe deeply by forcing the air swiftly and deeply; you will then breathe the air back in, and do this several times over. Stop quietly, and then give use one hand to massage the other, and give yourself deep pressure in each of your hands. Breathe again, and keep massaging each of your hands until you regain calm. You can also squeeze your hands together tightly and hold them for seven seconds, and then repeat. Practice mindfulness, and make sure that you get yourself somewhere safe, and remember to breathe. If you need to exit from public, try to call a friend to come and assist you if you need it.

3. Implement lifestyle changes to prevent panic attacks in the long term:

Clean up your diet, eat as much unprocessed food as you can, and as many fruit and vegetables as you can reasonably manage. Reduce your caffeine intake, give away alcohol and also give away nicotine. Talk to a counsellor about your personal problems, and also do what you can to alleviate stress from your life. Try to see things in perspective, and don't sweat the small stuff. Let go of perfectionism, and set yourself realistic goals, not unachievable goals. Spend more time in nature, and quiet contemplation. Spending time in nature reinforces human's natural need for being in the outdoors (a phenomenon referred to as biophilia, or love of nature). Join a social support circle, so that you have others to rely on to help relieve some of your mental burdens. Engage in creative pursuits, and make sure that you are not always working, and ensure you get adequate rest.
Using these three simple steps, you can let go of stress, and reduce your proneness to anxiety and panic attacks, and have a life that is calm and peaceful and full of joy.

The Pleasure Of The Penis Power Through Botanical Beauties

WHEN A MAN HAS A PENIS THAT WORKS FOR HIM, HE HAS A LOT TO BE THANKFUL FOR. However, the pleasure of the penis for some doesn't come from just wishful thinking, it emanates from woeful wants. It is building the body through exercises and following the right formula including Botanical beauties such as herbs, that are grown right under our noses. We will discuss why it is very important to have a healthy penis and how we can move from the fantasy of giving pleasure to the reality of actual performance. Let's start with your current performance.

Are You Having These Sex Problems?:

Do you find yourself losing erection during sex? This can be very frustrating to any woman. Another thing that is truly annoying is to have a premature delivery before the curtains come down.
There is no trick in having a pleasurable sexual encounter nor an elusive fantasy. Enjoyment doesn't mean hours upon hours of long a painful sex as the act can actually last as little as 5 to 10 minutes. Another myth that we are accustomed to is the length of the penis. Neither the length nor the hours has anything to do with this widely-talked-about performance. Actual intercourse is pleasurable because the vagina is well lubricated for penetration.
However, without a firm and erect penis, this penetration is impossible. The entire spotlight comes from simple botanical nutrition which we will discover after ascertaining the problem below the belt.

Weak Penis

The penis is the most important part of a man's reproductive system as is the vagina to a woman. There are other areas of the body that are erogenous zones but the final show-down leads back to the faceoff between the dynamic duos.
If a man has a weak penis, he cannot perform the way he should. It doesn't matter the length of his sexual encounter as the bliss can last between 10 and 15 minutes, and that could be a very pleasurable experience compared to 1 long, boring hour of pain. But how can we know how to identify the symptoms of this "poor" condition?

Cause for Concern

If you find yourself greeting the bathroom several times during the night, your sudden burst of courtesy is a cause for concern. This could unfortunately be a problem with the prostate as it becomes inflamed and when this happens, there might be other conditions that follow.
Among these conditions are the lack of interest in sex and premature ejaculation. All these are symptoms that can lead to poor sexual performance and we will highlight the right remedy for this embarrassing situation.

Botanical Beauties

Isn't it wonderful to have a natural growing plant that could improve your performance in bed? That is the botanical beauty of the cure that nature provides.
The power of the penis could also come from increasing the size if you wish but it doesn't stop there. Regular exercise to release the stress hormone could also help you cope with the psychological problem that comes from having a weak erection. This also helps the blood to circulate through your veins and arteries.
Here are some plants that could greatly help to restore your sex life:
· Butea Superba
· Jamaican Sarsaparilla
· Panax Ginseng
The above remedies help to regulate the blood pressure, increase the production of testosterone, sustain an erection and enhance energy and power during sex.

The Power Is Yours Through Herbs

There might be other alternative but through naturally grown organic remedies, a man can restore his life and be normal again. Treating his body to natural supplements is good and when they are applied as daily supplements, coupled with regular exercise, the power is there for the taking.
Nothing is impossible when it comes to pleasing a woman because a man has the right tool for the job regardless of the size. He just needs to unleash the power behind it.
 

The Dreaded "S" Word - Suicide

The common myth is that suicide is the most selfish act someone can commit. That's nonsense. People typically don't commit suicide until the pain of living becomes greater than the pain of dying, and nothing they've tried has worked. In fact, it generally makes perfect sense when viewed from their life perspective.
So let's take the unhelpful judgment out of it and look seriously at the factors involved in suicide. Much can be said about the risk factors and common means; this is just an overview.
First, let's look at some risk factors of suicide. Naturally, not all will apply in every situation. (**VERY Important; *Especially in the elderly)
  • History of suicide attempts
  • Talking about suicide or leaving a suicide note
  • Planning for suicide (e.g., making a will, giving away their things, saying their goodbyes)
  • Being depressed (Caution: suicide rates increase when someone appears to be coming out of a deep depression, and in summer)
  • Chronic, unresolved grief
  • Poverty
  • Unemployment, especially in young men
  • Feelings of powerlessness, shame, guilt, low self-esteem
  • Poor physical health
  • Social isolation
  • Being single
  • Family history of suicide
  • Use of alcohol or other drugs
  • Having a personality disorder
  • Poor sleep
  • Bereavement
  • Access to firearms
  • Being elderly &/or male
  • Major holidays and birthdays
  • First week following discharge from the hospital
  • Just before or after a major diagnosis
  • Before or during disciplinary proceedings
The most common means of suicide include:
  • Intentional drug overdose, often accompanied by alcohol
  • Jumping from a height
  • Gun or knife
  • Cutting
  • Hanging
  • Burning
  • Asphyxiation
  • Intentional self-neglect, especially in the elderly
What can you do if you suspect someone in your life has become suicidal? Here are a few ideas:
  1. Take it seriously.
  2. Talk about it. Ask about the depression and any suicidal feelings and behaviors.
  3. Listen. Listen for the feelings beneath the words. Listen for the pain that has led up to this moment.
  4. Don't argue. Don't offer platitudes.
  5. Assist the person with getting professional help-even offer to make the appointment and go with him/her to the first visit.
  6. Offer to help create a safe environment (remove weapons, drugs, razors, scissors, etc), or offer to spend the night on their couch so s/he isn't alone.
  7. Try to get him/her to call a crisis hotline.
  8. Don't minimize or deny his/her pain.
  9. If suicide seems imminent, don't leave the person alone.
  10. If someone is telling you about feeling suicidal, don't agree to keep it a secret-get help.
If someone completes suicide, what can you expect to experience in the aftermath? Typically, survivors will feel an increased sense of rejection, responsibility, various grief reactions, shame, guilt, or even copycat behavior. Some may develop personality disorders.
In summary, suicide is a very complex issue and judgment isn't helpful. After all, we're not walking their path. But it can shake your own foundation to the core, so don't feel like you need to handle this difficult challenge alone. Get support for yourself before you develop complications from the pain and confusion.

 

What Is the Disorder Knows As Sex Addiction

Sex addiction is a growing problem with damaging effects. It is a disease, it is a mental, spiritual, psychological, emotional and physical malady. Because of the sexual nature of the addiction it is not widely or openly discussed. Therefore, many people suffer with their addiction in silence.

According to The Society for the Advancement of Sexual Health, "sexual addiction is a persistent and escalating pattern or patterns of sexual behaviors acted out despite increasingly negative consequences to self or others."

Some of these sexual behaviors include masturbation, watching pornography, engaging in cyber sex, engaging in phone sex, going out to strip clubs, hiring prostitutes or engaging in prostitution, sex with multiple anonymous partners and repeated sequential affairs, to name a few.

While at first glance, this addiction may seem like a moral problem, it is clear that it is also a real medical condition. This is evidenced by a draft released in 2010 by the American Psychiatric Association which recognizes it as a medical disorder which they formally call "Hypersexual Disorder." The draft lists the following as symptoms of the disorder:

The addicted individual spends "Excessive time consumed by sexual fantasies and urges, and by planning for and engaging in sexual behavior." This is called the obsession part of the disease. The person thinks about, daydreams about and is always planning on how to get their next "fix".

"Repetitively engaging in these sexual fantasies, urges and behavior in response to dysphoric mood states (e.g., anxiety, depression, boredom, irritability)." This is called the compulsion. The addict can't get enough, they need more of their drug to be satisfied.

"Repetitively engaging in sexual fantasies, urges and behavior in response to stressful life events." This part of the obsession takes place when triggers are created, when life becomes too stressful, the addict does not know how to properly feel or emote so they use their sex addiction to medicate their feelings.

"Repetitive but unsuccessful efforts to control or significantly reduce these sexual fantasies, urges and behavior." Many addicts realize they have a problem and want to stop, on their own, this won't happen. It's a disease and much like cancer, you can't just realize you have cancer and say I'll stop having cancer. Help is mandatory in dealing with this addiction.

"Repetitively engaging in sexual behavior while disregarding the risk for physical or emotional harm to self or others." Who in their right mind would engage in behaviors that are harmful to self or others? a sick person is the answer and since the sex addict is suffering and struggling with a disease, they need help.

Sex addiction resembles other addiction in many ways. For one, the brain chemistry changes are similar. Family background of addiction is prevalent in sex addicts as well as in alcoholics and drug addicts. Additionally, addicts in general report having come from homes that lacked nurturing. In most cases the addicts reported abusive backgrounds including emotional, physical and sexual abuses. They also report having been from family environments where neglect, abandonment and enmeshment were commonplace. Finally, many sex addicts suffer from other addictions. Because of these similarities to drug and alcohol addiction, the consequences and treatment options are very similar.

As you would imagine, this addiction comes with serious consequences in all areas of the lives of sex addicts including social, emotional, physical, legal, financial/occupational and spiritual. As such, recovery from sex addiction can be a lifelong challenge. However, there is hope for sex addicts. They have to take the first step and commit to recovery. Once an addict has made that commitment, there are a number of recovery options available, including counseling, individual and group therapy and all inclusive sexual addiction recovery programs.

Sex Addiction Recovery and Why I Should Follow The 12 Steps

The main reason you should follow a 12 step program to treat sex addiction is because such programs, based on techniques pioneered by Alcoholics Anonymous, have been known to work. That said, unfortunately there is little in the way of solid, scientific data showing recovery rates on people who went through a 12 step program.

Part of the reason for this is because each 12 step group is different. Alcoholics Anonymous published its 12 step program in 1939, and since then the basic template has been refined and adapted to treat other compulsive behaviors including sex addiction, drugs, gambling, etc. They all involve a person admitting they have no control over their behavior and turning their life over to a higher power, thus becoming more introspective.

Each "S" programs is a little different in how they suggest members work their recovery but they all follow the same 12 step model pioneered by Alcoholics Anonymous. Working a program of recovery has been proven to help calm the obsessions and compulsions of active sex addiction. Studies tend not to distinguish between people who went to a few meetings and left and those who stuck with it. There is anecdotal evidence to suggest 12 steps work, or at the very least are better than nothing. Still, a person looking for experts to agree that it works, or even a consensus on how well, is going to be disappointed.

Critics of 12 steps programs cite a 5 percent success rate, while groups such as Alcoholics Anonymous have argued success to be closer to 50 percent, and 25 percent after relapses. The debate has gone on for years, since the early 1940s, with proponents touting success and critics claiming their information is misleading and designed to bolster a treatment industry.

So why should a sex addict bother if even the experts can't agree on whether a 12 step program works or not? According to http://www.hazelden.org, a 1998 study done on 12 step alcoholic programs showed the program does have an effect on people whose social networks supported their drinking habit. This would indicate that the people surrounding the addicts had influence over their behavior.
A 12 step program puts a sex addict in a group that is not going to facilitate their addictive behavior. The addict will also be able to see other people with an addiction and compare their life to the others, perhaps realizing something they did not before. It will put the sex addict in contact with people who have reported recovery so they can see there is hope. It also lets a sex addict learn from others, using their techniques for dealing with urges and addressing problems in their life.

As previous articles explained, one component of the 12 step program is forcing a sex addict to look at their own life and behaviors. Step 4 of the 12 steps involve the addict taking an inventory of their life, behaviors, thoughts and actions and showing it to someone else, someone they trust. This is especially helpful for people who are not normally very introspective or self-conscious. A 12 step program makes a sex addict take a look at themselves from different angles, and once an addict does that they can often find ways to manage their addiction.

It should be noted that a sex addict is going to have to define success for themselves, and that they may carry with them their entire lives some behaviors learned from the 12 step program, namely the self-examination aspects. For the program to work, the addict program needs to stick to it; someone looking to be "cured" quickly is likely to be disappointed.

Life Between the Pings

I just spoke at the annual meeting of SIM (the Society of Information Management (SIM). These are corporate Chief Information Officers (CIOs) and Information Technology (IT) specialists who know me, they've read my books in their Leadership Learning Forums (LLF) and have listened to me talk to them over the last 20 years about the many ways there are for human beings to share information. We have explored the unconscious, entered trance states, and participated in ceremonies.

This year I talked about how the handheld computer is reprogramming human behavior on a massive scale. We are becoming addicted to the ping of an arriving call or text that triggers a burst of endorphins which stimulate the reward centers in the brain, and urge us to want more.

85% of all Americans are never more than an arms length away from their phones. In our culture, it is almost unimaginable to think about what life is like without the pings. Late-night show host Arsenio Hall recently said that he had the worst day in his life when he inadvertently left his iPhone at home. I can't be the only one who is terrified of what seems to me to be a cultural addiction to the ping. We are afraid that if we disconnect we might miss out on something that could be more important or exciting than whatever we are or are doing in the moment.

We defend our habit by exclaiming it could be an emergency and that we always have a choice about whether or not to respond to the intrusion. The bottom line is that it always takes us away from the moment and makes wherever we are or are doing never enough.

Our fetish with multitasking makes it possible to do many things but none of them as well as we could if we were more focused. I think we are suffering from Cultural Attention Deficit Disorder, that is manifesting in an epidemic of stress related mental illness and taking too many drugs.
Here is an antidote; come to the Thanksgiving table without your cellphones, make it the family ritual it is and be with each other in this moment. Tell family stories that remind you of all the things you are thankful for and what's most important to you.

Life is what happens between the pings.

Happy Thanksgiving, I say this To All My Relations, Mi Takuye Oyacin.
Our fetish with multitasking and cell phone addiction is taking us away from being in the moment and makes wherever we are or are doing never enough. Let's restore the dinner meal to a family ritual and prohibit cell phones at the table.

Tips for Protecting Yourself Financially

If someone called you and said they were from your credit card company or bank, and they had a problem to discuss, would you give them confidential, personal information over the phone?
Don't be too quick to think it couldn't happen to you. One type of scam involves imposters posing as bank reps who call targeted victims about "problems" with their credit cards. They read off a list of phony charges made on the person's credit card to gain the card member's attention and card information. The person naturally gets upset and isn't thinking clearly so they give the caller their credit card numbers to help resolve the problem.

If the caller sounds especially friendly, convincing and kind, that may be the all it takes to separate that person from his or her hard-earned savings. Even the savviest person isn't immune to these scams because fraudulent cat and mouse games are always changing. Many scams purposely target seniors who have been known to be sympathetic to scammers.

This is one of the more common financial frauds aimed at grandparents. After listening to a sad tale on the phone about their "grandchild," the grandparent withdraws a large amount of cash from their bank and wires it to the bogus "granddaughter" or "grandson" who is "stranded" abroad in need of money. The grandchild has supposedly lost their wallet or passport abroad or they have been robbed of everything including their plane ticket. This is also a common email scam.

Unfortunately, even though some frauds have been around for years, there is always someone who is vulnerable to talking to a nice-sounding caller from a well-known company like a bank, credit card company, insurance agency or government organization who isn't who he says he is. But that caller has only one goal in mind: to gain access to your social security number and/or financial information.

How and Why Seniors are Targeted

Crooks use a variety of financial theft strategies. Here are some ways they get seniors and others to trust them.
  • They purchase databases like direct mail focused on older adults or they buy lists of higher priced retirement communities or wealthy neighborhoods. They visit senior centers or health care centers where wealthy donors may be recognized on a wall or plaque to gain names of people who might be good targets.
  • After a natural disaster, people are targeted to give money to a "fake" charity. Some scammers gain access to records of who has contributed to charities in the past. After the historic floods in Colorado in September, some telemarketers called people asking for credit card numbers to charge a donation. These callers were not usually legitimate.
  • Unfortunately, seniors are often targets of scams because they may easily get confused and they want to trust the person they are talking to.
  • People who live alone and are lonely may often be targets of fraudulent callers because they are known to respond to "nice-sounding" people.
  • Many scams are Medicare or health-based. Because seniors have more medical issues it may seem natural to them to get calls about their health and the caller requests personal information.
  • They want to make sure their bills get paid so when in doubt they give out confidential information when they shouldn't.
Tips for Protecting Yourself
  • First off, never give personal banking anyone on the phone. Most banks only ask for personal information when absolutely necessary such as when you are opening or changing an account. The do not ask for personal information over the phone or by email because they recognize that both forms of communication are not completely not secure.
  • Remember, financial institutions will not ask for non-public information by phone, e-mail or through a Web site. When in doubt, call your bank and ask if they've contacted you. Chances are they haven't.
  • If an offer sounds good don't quickly react. Tell the caller to send it to you in writing.
  • Don't reply to phone or email messages that don't seem quite right to you. If everyone did that, you would put the crooks out of business. From their perspective, it just wouldn't pay to keep doing what they're doing.
  • If you want to make a donation to a charity, don't make the donation with a credit card or give out financial information over the phone.
  • Stay up-to-date on your financial matters. Monitor your credit card and bank statements on a regular basis.
Keeping Elderly Parents & Friends Financially Safe
  • Make regular in-person visits. Spend time with senior family members and friends. Make sure they are not lonely. You can do this by phone if you live out of the area, but in-person, open communication, is even better.
  • Sit down with elderly parents and talk about how financial scams can occur. Let them know you are available to discuss any great "opportunity" they may have heard about.
  • Put notes by the phones that say "Never Give Personal Banking Information to ANYONE."
  • If a senior doesn't have close friends or family members close by they trust, suggest that they get an attorney to act as power of attorney as needed.
  • Set up an annual or monthly budget for donations the person has an interest in. The senior has final say over their money but through a series of limited donations they can enjoy giving back to their community but just not over the phone to potential scammers.
Even though you are aware of how important it is to stay ahead of financial scams, fraudulent activity is gaining momentum. If no one was responding to requests for personal financial information, the scams would stop. Stay sharp, stay aware. Don't be tempted to give scammers valuable information and the opportunity to take what they want.

Massage Therapy: A Guide to Its Health Benefits

Body massage is a popular way to relax and get relief from pain and stress. But studies have shown that it is much more than that. In fact, a growing number of people are waking up to its therapeutic uses. Massage therapy at the hand of trained professionals can improve your overall wellbeing by providing relief from stress and migraine, improving your body posture, improving your blood circulation, decreasing your blood pressure and strengthening your immune system.

1. Provides relief from stress

Constant stress is bad for your physical and emotional wellbeing. It affects our body, mood and behavior. You can become anxious, irritated, restless, angry, sad and depressed. Physically, you may suffer from headache, chest pain, stomach ache, fatigue, inability to sleep, loss of appetite and loss of sexual desire. Massage therapy can relax your muscles, lower your heart rate and increases the production of endorphin, which is your body's natural feel good chemical. It also helps release serotonin and dopamine, chemicals that make it easier to overcome stress.

2. Helps improve posture

Today's work environment contributes to bad posture, which is bad not only for appearance but for your health as well. It forces some of your muscles to work harder than others, resulting in undue pressure on your internal organs, digestive system, blood circulation and breathing. Massage therapy loosens the muscles made stiff by bad posture, allows the joints to move more freely and relieves pain from pressure points. As a result, your body regains its pain-free natural posture.

3. Helps improve blood circulation and lower blood pressure:

Poor blood circulation can result in fatigue, ache, discomfort and lack of energy. Massage therapy facilitates blood circulation by putting pressure on blood to move through congested areas. It also helps improve the circulation of lymph fluids that carry away metabolic wastes from muscles and internal organs by flushing out the lactic acid accumulated in the muscles, which results in better blood circulation and improved body functions. Massage therapy can also decrease both systolic and diastolic blood pressure.

4. Provides relief from migraine:

Migraine is a neurological disorder that is characterized by chronic headache, which can be debilitating. It is often caused by high stress and lack of sleep. Massage therapy helps cure migraine by relaxing your nerves and by freeing your body from stress and pain, especially in the neck, shoulders and head area.

5. Helps strengthen the immune system:

Studies have shown that massage therapy increases the body's immune system by increasing the production of the natural killer cells (which fight disease-causing germs) and decreasing the number of T-cells that lower the capacity to fight diseases. By doing so, it enhances the body's ability to get nourishment, which improves overall health.

In addition to the above, regular massage therapy can make you healthier, stronger and happier by improving your breathing and flexibility of motion, relaxing your muscles and calming you mind. It has also been found to expedite post-operative recovery and healing of other injuries by helping deliver more oxygen and nutrients to the body's tissues and vital organs.
 
 

Taking Medicines and Supplements to Help You

Health and fitness are important for people at any age, but they become of increased concern when a person grows older and finds that his body may be deteriorating. Anti-aging products have become very plentiful.

Years ago when my mother was living as an older woman, she visited her brother and his wife in another state. She was surprised at how many pills they took on a daily basis. They had both been pharmacists who believed in the medicines they ingested each day. They believed that they were being helped by the various products. Indeed, they enjoyed good health and fitness throughout their long lives.

The world is full of medicines. You cannot turn on the television without seeing commercials for all manner of prescription medicines which are available for all kinds of physical and mental problems. Doctors seem happy to prescribe pills for every imaginable ailment which should also make the drug companies and pharmacists happy with the business. However, some people are leery of using a lot of prescription drugs because of all the possible side effects which sound much worse than the illness which may be present. People are advised to inform their doctor of all medicines and supplements which they are taking.

Nutritional supplements and vitamin products which are said to contain so called natural ingredients are equally plentiful. They line the shelves of grocery and drug stores. They are available in large quantities at various discount and wholesale membership outlets. It is a huge business said to be in the trillions of dollars a year.

Some people who are looking for better health and fitness through using nutritional supplements are finding that they are able to use products which seem to help them while at the same time pursuing a home based business opportunity in network marketing. This industry has dozens of now quite well known companies selling all manner of supplements intended to help a person feel and look better.

While they are forbidden from making health claims about their products, the people who use them are able to share their success stories with others who may be interested. In this manner, they are able to get others to buy the products as well so they may start to earn some money as they consume products in which they have faith. They do have to share information about the products and the business opportunity to ever make any money in the business.

Better health and fitness can be achieved by most people no matter what age they are. It seems to be a well known fact that people are living longer and will begin to have even greater longevity in their lives. Trying to feel better as you age is a worthy goal for anyone.

Top 10 Functional Fitness Anti Aging Exercises

Prevention is always the best cure, and by adopting 10 simple anti-aging exercises into a functional fitness routine to increase your strength, flexibility and heart health, you can retain your youthful vigor and appearance while avoiding many of the common conditions that accompany aging, such as osteoporosis.

These exercises target areas of the body that frequently suffer painful and debilitating degeneration if not properly stimulated -- especially knees, hips and shoulders. A recent study conducted at the Lausanne University in Switzerland entitled "The Exercise -- Anti-Aging Connection" firmly concludes that "Regular physical exercise is a cornerstone in the anti-aging game."

1. Toe Touches - Lift your arms above your head and slowly bring them down in a graceful arc until you touch your toes. Hold for 10 seconds. This helps you to increase and maintain your range of motion so you continue to bend down without pain. Repeat this exercise to increase the range of motion in your spine and legs.

2. Balance Exercises - Lift your arms above your head again, but this time rise up on your tip toes and stretch up as far as possible. Hold for 5 seconds. Gradually lower your arms to shoulder level while finding your center of balance. Then slowly lower your arms as you sink down on your heels. Repeat until you feel centered. This will help you maintain your inner balance and avoid accidental falls.

3. Shoulder Stretches - Stand up straight and extend your arms behind your back. Clasp your hands behind your back. By 'unlocking' the muscles in your shoulders, you have more flexibility to reach high shelves and remove objects without causing strain.

4. Hip Circumduction - Put your hands behind your back and stand on one foot while you raise the other a few inches and point it forward. Slowly rotate your foot in a circular motion. Stand on both feet again, then repeat the motion with the other foot. This strengthens the muscles that surround your hips to help protect against hip fractures.

5. Squats - With your hands extended straight out, do some simple squats to strengthen your torso muscles and improve your balance so you can easily get in and out of cars.

6. Resistance - Place your hands against a wall and lean your body at an angle while on your tip toes. Feel your calf muscles and your upper body strengthen. This resistance helps to strengthens bones against osteoporosis.

7. Shoulder Stretch - Rotate your shoulders in a circular motion to increase lubricant in your joints and decrease joint pain.

8. Tricep Extensions - Sit up straight in a chair, place your hands on the arm rests lift yourself up 15x to increase your upper body strength.

9. Plyometric exercises - Stand on one leg with arms slightly behind your body. Propel your body up as high as possible, reaching up your arms and springing from your legs. Perform 3 times in rapid succession, then lower your foot and repeat on the other side. This "Michael Jordan" move creates the kind of explosive energy boost that maintains the muscle power that we lose as we age and is good for carrying suitcases.

10. Core muscles - Now that all the outer muscles are warmed up and flexible, it is important to set the 'core muscles' that support your body's framework. Stand up very straight with your feel planted firmly on the ground. Contract your abdomen by imagining you are drawing your belly button down to the base of your spine. Once you have the bottom muscles set, imagine there is a cord coming from the center of your chest pulling your breastbone up. Naturally allow your shoulders to fall back as you look up. Breathe normally while you hold this position and tighten all of your outer muscles around your core muscles. Maintain full body tension as long as possible, then relax them all at once. Repeat numerous times, noticing how your body tightens a little more with each repetition.

Once you have completed your routine, rest for a moment and allow your heart rate to return to normal. Also drink a glass of water to help remove any toxins that your body naturally releases when exercising to further enhance the anti-aging effects of your functional fitness.

What Is The Best Memory Enhancer For You

The problem with finding out what is 'best' for any particular person is the fact that what may be the 'best' for you might not necessarily be the best for someone else. In fact, in many situations, what is the best for many people can turn out to be the worst possible option for many others. When figuring out what is the 'best' solution for memory enhancement, we have to remember that there is no such thing as a 'cookie cutter' solution. Different people from many different backgrounds have different daily routines and have different issues affecting them. Figuring out the best memory enhancement regimen or product for these individuals must recognize their unique situations and circumstances.

By addressing subjective differences and factoring in the specific circumstances and situations for each person, we can find what is 'best' for them. This is the only sensible solution to determining the 'best' solution-especially when it comes to something as delicate and sensitive as memory function. Keep the following tips in mind when looking for a memory enhancer that best fits your particular situation.

Figure out your level of memory deterioration

When trying to solve memory degradation, you don't want to put yourself in a situation where you are taking out ants with a flamethrower. In other words, there is no need to spend lots of money, time, and effort on brain boosting enhancements when you only need a little help. Similarly, you don't want to put yourself in a situation where you're trying to put out a fire by throwing thimbles full of water at the flames either. To avoid either scenario, you need an honest assessment of your memory state.

How bad are your memory problems? How often do you forget things? Do you forget things so much that it actually gets in the way of your life enjoyment or might subject you to possible harm or security risks? Figure out how bad your situation is before considering possible solutions.

Start low and slow

Once you have figured out the extent of your memory deterioration, you need to start slow. Start implementing memory boosting regimens and see if there is any improvement. If you see improvement, continue with the current level of memory boosting activities. If not, you need to ramp things up until you see some improvement. If you reach a point where you feel that you have done all you could do on an individual basis, you may need to go see your physician for professional intervention. At this point, medication and possible facility care might be in order. Regardless, when trying to address your memory issues, it is a good idea to start low and start slow. Again, you don't want to put yourself in a situation where you overreact and blast away at your problems when it turns out that a softer and gradual approach would have done the job.

Start with lifestyle

A lot of memory deterioration has to do with lifestyle. If you live a sedentary and hermit-like lifestyle, your chances of developing memory loss or degradation issues is higher than if you live a fairly active lifestyle and you constantly exercise your interpersonal skills. Be more active. Jog or walk around the block. Greet your neighbors and practice your ability to connect faces with names.

Remember a few details for each face you meet. Try to get more sleep. Sleep deprivation helps suppress brain function. Make sure you get eight hours of uninterrupted sleep at night. You may want to exercise twice during the day-in the morning and in the evening so you can be tired enough to sleep all the way through the night. Watch what you eat. Eat a healthier low-fat high-fiber diet to boost your cardiovascular health. Your brain is very oxygen hungry and it requires optimal blood flow levels. Give this to your brain by watching what you eat and exercising right. Lifestyle is the best memory enhancer available.

Use food supplements

Gingko Biloba has been used by the Chinese for hundreds of years for memory enhancement. There are other supplements on the market which help aid memory and recall capabilities. Try these food supplements to help boost your overall blood flow.

What Is The Best Brain Food For You?

The old saying 'you are what you eat' is definitely true when it comes to our brains. Our brains are dramatically impacted by our diet. If we eat foods that are rich in fat and cholesterol, our brains tend to suffer from the consequences of hypertension, and the stress on the body inflicted by a high-fat diet. Conversely, if you want to keep your brain in optimal shape, you need to eat a diet that supplies the right combination of nutrients and vitamins, which will keep your brain's processes humming along quite nicely. Here are profiles of some of the best foods available for boosting mental processes and overall brain health.

Walnuts

It's a very interesting and fitting coincidence that shelled walnuts look like miniature brains. Their appearance is interesting because walnuts contain high levels of omega 3 which help boost brain function. It is quite interesting to see a nut that looks very similar to a brain be so beneficial for human brains. Omega-3 fatty acids acids help boost overall brain functions while other compounds in walnut help relieve oxidative stress on the brain which helps fend off Alzheimer's. Additionally, Walnuts contain high levels of Vitamin E, which helps arrest cognitive decline which usually comes with age.

Blueberries

Studies indicate that blueberries help reduce oxidative stress on brain tissue. This has been linked to a reduction in the effects of Alzheimer's and other age-related conditions. Additionally, studies have shown blueberries improved the motor skills and learning capacity of older lab rats. Blueberries can help older individuals preserve their mental hardware in old age.

Avocados

Avocados have high levels of monounsaturated fat. This type of fat is healthy and helps boost overall blood flow. Increased blood flow to the brain is a necessary condition of increased brain function and effectiveness. In fact, by boosting blood flow, avocados reduce hypertension. Hypertension has been linked to a reduction of the brain's overall cognitive abilities.

Nuts and seeds

Flaxseed has a decent level of omega 3s. As mentioned earlier, omega 3 helps boost overall brain function and can help with enhanced cognitive abilities. Sunflower seeds are also great brain-boosting seeds. In addition to flaxseed, individuals who are looking to strengthen their brain's overall health should also try a wide range of nuts. Since nuts pack lots of Vitamin E, they make for great brain-boosting snacks. Some nuts that are great for your brain include peanuts, filberts, cashews, brazil nuts, and almonds also have high levels of Vitamin E.

Beans

Beans help stabilize the blood's glucose levels. Since the brain needs glucose for energy, beans help deliver optimal amounts of energy to the brain without dramatic spikes in glucose. Beans help deliver a stead stream of energy the brain needs for optimal performance. Beans are also great for cardiovascular health since they help with nitric oxide levels. High nitric oxide levels help increase blood flow. The brain benefits when overall blood flow improves.

Pomegranate juice

You have probably heard of antioxidants' health boosting benefits. Antioxidants help suppress the amount of cancer-causing free radicals in organs. Pomegranate juice has a high level of antioxidants. Drink lots of pomegranate juice to help cut down on the number of antioxidants which might harm your brain. If you don't like pomegranate juice, you can also try a wide variety of citrus juices. These juices also have decent levels of antioxidants.

Dark Chocolate

Cocoa has a high level of antioxidants which can cut down on cancer-causing free radicals that can harm your brain. Additionally, this yummy substance also contains caffeine which helps increase energy level and mental focus.

The Perfect Acne Solution

For anyone who has bad skin, finding the perfect acne solution can often feel like an uphill climb. Acne can really be a nightmare for a number of reasons. The actual root cause of acne is still unknown and as a result, there is no acne solution that can guarantee to clear up acne 100%. Some people go through life without a single attack while others spend the majority of their teenage years struggling with it. And if that wasn't enough, some acne will leave lasting scars.

It seems like anything to do with acne control is firmly set in the middle of the road; therefore, there is no way a person can control acne. Is there nothing that you can do to try to lessen your chances of contracting acne? The good news is that, although there is no cure for acne, there are definitely a number of acne solutions, which can control its outbreak.

Healthy Inside Out

One thing that we do know about acne is that it often flares up when there is an excess secretion of oil from the sebaceous glands. This extra oil often collects in pores and hair follicles and if it comes into contact with bacteria, then acne is formed. Acne can flare up in a number of ways- some people get tiny pimples, often referred to as whiteheads. If these turn black, they are known as blackheads. Some flare up into angry red blister-like formations that are known as zits.

On an external level, you can help tackle acne by clearing your face with a gentle but regular washing routine. Wiping off excess oil is also helpful. But perhaps one of the most effective ways to tackle acne has nothing to do with your skin and everything to do with good nutrition. Studies have shown that people, who have a healthy diet as well as an active lifestyle, are less likely to have acne attacks than those with sedentary and non-nutritious eating habits. Having a healthy diet that is rich in fresh fruit and vegetables as well as high water intake can vastly reduce your chances of contracting severe acne and can prove to the best acne solution.

Get With the Program

A perfect acne solution is much easier to incorporate than you think, and best of all it will not cost you a lot either. There are a few easy ways in which you can not only build up resistance to acne, but also find out, if something in your body is triggering it. First of all check if you have any food allergies. An allergic reaction to certain foods is one of the leading causes for severe acne attacks. If you have a problem with acidity and digestion, it could be a cause for acne, as the body cannot absorb any nutrients. Avoiding such food can again prove to be a good acne solution.

The complete acne solution has a number of things you should definitely incorporate into your diet, like water. Drinking plenty of water will help flush out toxins from your body and blood stream. Fresh vegetables and fruits are a great way to rejuvenate and revitalize your skin. Opting for sea salt rather than iodized salt can also help. There are also a number of foods that can be avoided like; junk food, as this is one of the leading causes of acne, also it is a good idea to avoid anything that contains refined sugar, fat or any kind of processed food. Anything that contains trans fatty acids should definitely be avoided. While, this program is not an acne cure, it is an acne solution that can really help you in your battle with acne.

How to Prevent Schizophrenia And Neurosis

Your mental health is based on your capacity to think, feel, and sense your reality, so that you may be able to solve your problems and find happiness. However, you are not as intelligent as you may believe and you are insensitive. You may believe that you are a normal person and you have nothing to fear, but if you belong to the human race your mental stability is in danger. You are absurd from birth.

You can become schizophrenic at any time, depending on the events and situations you may face in your daily life.

I know you don't want to think about this possibility. I'm sure you will tell me that a million things can happen to you at any time, but you cannot protect yourself from all dangers.
In this article I will show you how you can protect yourself from all dangers and prevent all mental illnesses through dream translation. The guidance you have in dreams protects you from all dangers because it comes from God.
You will stop believing in illusions and learn many hidden truths.

The route an individual follows when he or she becomes schizophrenic is always the same. The bitter truth is that we already inherit schizophrenia into the biggest part of our brain, since our anti-conscience occupies the biggest part of our brain and psyche. The anti-conscience is our primitive conscience, which didn't evolve with time. It is a schizophrenic conscience because it always ends up on terror and despair.

This primitive conscience is disorganized, but it follows a well-organized process in order to destroy our human conscience through craziness, the same way that all wild animals follow an inherited behavioral program in order to kill their prey. All animals already know which movements they must make in order to imprison and kill another animal before learning this practice. This knowledge is indispensable for their survival, since they are wild animals. All wild animals have the wild nature of the anti-conscience. The anti-conscience is a shark that can think.

The anti-conscience is a wild animal that can think and imprison our conscience into the labyrinth of craziness by following several steps, but it is an idiotic and self-destructive conscience. Our anti-conscience is schizophrenic because it didn't learn how to organize its actions and control its behavior. It is unable to solve its existential problems and find peace. We inherit this absurd conscience because without it we are unable to think.

An individual becomes schizophrenic because he is gradually controlled by his primitive conscience (anti-conscience) as he accepts the absurd suggestions of his anti-conscience, especially after facing traumatic experiences. He makes numerous mistakes, and he ends up on despair. This is how he loses his mind and his anti-conscience manages to control his behavior.

An individual is mentally healthy when he/she doesn't accept the absurd suggestions of his anti-conscience and he manages to eliminate his anti-conscience through consciousness and wisdom.
In order to be a mentally healthy person, you must learn how to accurately translate the meaning of your dreams based on the scientific method of dream interpretation, or submit your dreams for professional dream translation. The unconscious mind discovered by Carl Jung is God's mind.
God shows you how you can eliminate your wild nature and cure your anti-conscience by organizing your thoughts and your behavior.

Life is a complex and dangerous adventure. You must learn how to solve all problems and always behave like a conscious human being. Otherwise, your wild tendencies will ruin your life, and destroy your human conscience.

This means that you have to be able to tame the violent and immoral tendencies you have inherited. If you want to keep your mental stability and evolve, you must learn how be calm, sincere, and friendly. You also have to discern what is good or bad, and condemn hypocrisy, poverty, and terror. You have to be sensitive and understand how others feel, think, and sense their reality.

If you are indifferent to your behavior, your anti-conscience will find ways to control your behavior. Your ego must control your behavior, and not your wild side. However, your ego is selfish and idiotic. Your ego has many absurd desires. Your ego must obey the divine guidance instead of doing what your ignorant and one-sided human conscience desires.

Your one-sided and under-developed conscience is easily manipulated by our absurd and evil anti-conscience because you prefer what is bad. You believe that it is more advantageous for you. This is why you easily fall into your anti-conscience's traps. Then, you become mentally ill, and instead of becoming the brilliant human being you could be, you feel that your life has no meaning.
In order to escape schizophrenia and all the other mental illnesses generated by the anti-conscience you have to be serious and learn how to control your behavior. You will become a mentally healthy person when you will have the behavior of an angel.

You may believe that I'm exaggerating, but the truth is that the people you consider mentally healthy are in fact mentally ill, but their mental illness was not discovered by the scientists of our historical time. For example, today's psychiatrists don't consider indifference or anger as indications of behavioral abnormalities, while they are clear indications of insensitivity and cruelty.
A conscious human being must always be calm and sensitive. A mentally healthy person is not contaminated by the poison of indifference and anger.

Indifference is as cruel as violence. Anger is an explosion of hatred.
By translating the meaning of your dreams you will understand how many of your reactions are abnormal because they are not positive for you and for your community, even though you believe that they are 'normal' reactions. The global abnormalities must not be considered to be normal. Everyone shows abnormal behavior on Earth because everyone inherits an absurd wild conscience that must be tamed.

You have to escape the tragic destiny of your ancestors, and learn how to become a better person until you will attain perfection. Instead of believing that 'nobody is perfect' and living like a rational animal influenced or controlled by your wild side, you should desire to attain spiritual perfection and become a superior person.

You can attain higher levels of knowledge instead of caring about the false information of the hypocritical world. You can become a genius and find bright solutions for problems that no one could solve. You can change the world thanks to your work and your example.
Now that you know the tragic truth about the satanic origin of the human conscience, and now that you know that you have God's guidance in your own dreams, you must pay attention to the unconscious lessons in the dream images. I simplified the dream language for you, and God is an excellent doctor.
