While it is obvious that a good-feeling body makes for a more pleasant physical experience, we want you to understand that finding pleasant things to focus upon also makes for a good-feeling body.
However, most humans are approaching the subject of their physical well-being in a backward manner. Most people who are experiencing physical ailments let their physical condition dictate their mental attitude. In other words, their emotions are responsive to their physical condition. When they are in pain, they offer emotions of frustration, worry, anger, or fear. They want the condition to improve so that their emotional state can improve.
Any illness, or departure from physical well-being, begins at a cellular level-but the overwhelming propensity of your cells is that of thriving. All day, every day, your cells are reclaiming balance at such refined and subtle levels that most people are completely unaware of the power and intelligence of their cellular bodies.
Focusing upon good-feeling objects of attention is the most effective way of providing the optimum environment for allowing unhindered cellular communication and the ultimate thriving of your physical body.
12 Anti-Aging Herbs and Nutrients
Trying to maintain a youthful appearance but don't want to undergo the knife, Botox, or some other invasive procedure? Natural herbs and nutrients can help. Here are 11 of the best ones for anti-aging:
1. Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA): ALA is a powerful antioxidant that helps protect your body from free radical damage. It also helps to recycle other antioxidants like vitamins E and C, giving you greater protection against free radicals. Free radicals are to blame for aging and disease, including skin damage and wrinkling.
2. Bilberry: Packed with antioxidants, bilberry is potent medicine against many age-related concerns. It is helpful to preserve vision and prevent degenerative eye diseases.
3. GABA (Gamma-aminobutyric acid): Declining levels of HGH are linked with many of the symptoms linked with aging: fat gain, muscle loss, loss of energy, poor sleep, skin changes, bone density loss, and a decline in libido. Supplementing with GABA, a natural amino acid helps to maintain levels of HGH naturally, lessening these unwanted symptoms. Avoid GABA if you are prone to seizures.
4. Garlic (Allium sativum): Garlic is renowned for its potent effects on viruses and bacteria, but it also reduces cholesterol levels and helps lower blood pressure. In one Japanese study, garlic slowed age-related memory loss in animals.
5. Ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba): There is solid scientific research that supports the use of ginkgo to increase blood flow to the brain, one of the areas that is commonly affected by aging. European research shows ginkgo's capacity to help people with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia to become more sociable and alert. You can take 60 to 240 mg of standardized ginkgo extract per day.
6. Ginseng (Panax ginseng): Among the Chinese, ginseng is considered the Fountain of Youth. According to renowned herbalist Dr. James Duke, it tones the skin and muscles, improves appetite and digestion, and restores sexual energy.
7. Gotu Kola (Centella asiatica): Frequently used in India to improve memory and extend longevity, gotu kola is excellent when made into an herbal tea.
8. Horsetail (Equisetum arvense): Loaded with the mineral silicon that often declines with age, horsetail plays a role in increasing the silicon in arteries, skin, bones, cartilage and connective tissues. Horsetail is also available as a tea.
9. Milk Thistle (Silybum marianum): Since the liver has more than five hundred functions, including processing and filtering medications and environmental toxins, it can suffer from the stresses of the modern world. Silymarin, an active ingredient in milk thistle stimulates liver cell regeneration to help the liver rebuild after it has been damaged. A standardized extract of 140 mg of silymarin per day is suitable to help protect and repair the liver.
10. Peppermint (Metha peperita): In addition to helping with digestion and gastrointestinal problems linked with aging, peppermint contains antioxidants that help prevent cancer, heart disease, and other age-related disorders. It is readily available as an herbal tea.
11. Turmeric (curcuma longa): Turmeric is powerful against many types of pain and inflammation associated with aging. A spice, commonly used in Indian curries, you can add it to your soups, stews, and curries to benefit from this valuable spice.
12. Vitamin D: vitamin D helps protect against bone loss linked with aging, as well as many chronic illnesses like diabetes, cancer, and heart disease. Staying free of these diseases can certainly help you live a longer, healthier life.
It isn't necessary to take all of the above herbs and nutrients to benefit from their anti-aging properties. Even one or two taken consistently can help. Start by drinking horsetail, gotu kola, or peppermint tea regularly and eating more curries with garlic and turmeric. Follow the manufacturer's suggested dose for tinctures, capsules or tea. Consult a qualified health professional before taking any herbs or combining them with medications.

Peace brings Health
Aspartame has been Renamed and is Now Being Marketed as a Natural Sweetener
. Artificial
sweeteners especially aspartame have been covered in studies
showing they cause cancer. But Ajinomoto the company that makes
Aspartme has changed the name to AminoSweet. It has the same toxic
ingredients but a nice new sounding name. Despite the
evidence gained over the years showing that aspartame is a
dangerous toxin, it has remained on the global market . In
continues to gain approval for use in new types of food despite
evidence showing that it causes neurological brain damage,
cancerous tumors, and endocrine disruption, among other
things.

URGENT MALIBU CLEAN WATER ISSUE STATED HERE
QUESTION FOR THE WEEK: Ask RQWB why they granted permission to Malibu Mesa Sewage Treatment Plant and Pepperdine (where the effluent is piped to 3 settling ponds) to make 10 "emergency" dumps of 200,000 gals each of effluent/ year down Marie Canyon terminatingon the sand on Malibu Rd (Amarillo Beach); that totals 2 million gals of sewage effluent/ year (if they don't cheat ) which is far more than enough to pollute the sandy bottom of Malibu surf with water borne pathogens; viral pathogens such as polio etc are not killed by tertiary treatment, u.v., ozone etc. in this huge volume of sewage; same holds for Tapia; flush a radioactive tracer or simple dye down Pep toilet and pick up at receiving waters of Marie Canyon culvert if you need to document the obvious; I have asked these questions for past generation and as member of MNSMB WATERSHED group and have never been able to get a response. Same situation obtains at Las Virgenes Sewage dumping to Surfrider. Moreover ask why Pepperdine not included with RWQB 38 Notices of Violation for septic systems recently.

Wonderful quote from Ester Hicks:
Most people never put themselves into the dramatic situation where they are without water or food to the point of doing damage to their physical bodies; however, it is not uncommon for people to deprive their bodies of something equally important: alignment with Source Energy.
In the same way that it is a good idea to drink when you feel the indication of thirst-and therefore maintain your Well-Being long before dehydration is experienced-it is equally important to change the thought and release resistance at the first indication of negative emotion. For while it is certainly possible to withstand negative emotion for long periods of time, it is not the optimal experience for the cells of your physical body.
When you learn to release resistance in the early, subtle stages, your physical body must thrive. Thriving is what is natural to you.
