Test Your Indoor Air Quality!
How safe is your Indoor Air? 1) Does your home have carpeting? * Carpeting captures dust, dirt, chemicals and everything we track in from the outdoors. Carpeting also outgases formaldehydes and other chemicals used in processing. 2) Do you have an attached garage? * Carbon monoxide from cars running in the garage (even for a few minutes), will enter the home no matter how insulated the garage is. 3) Do you have any indoor furry pets? * All pets with fur create some dander, dust and odors into your environment. 4) Do you allow smoking in your home? * Smoke is made up of over 400 chemicals and will remain in your environment for up to 10 years. 5) Do you use store-bought cleaning products in your home? * Just because a cleaning product is available in a store does not mean it is safe. 99% of all store-brand cleaning products are highly toxic. The fumes don't just disappear, but are present in the air and on surfaces until someone touches them or inhales them. 6) Do you dry-clean some of your clothes? * Dry cleaning uses many chemicals that outgas into your air. 7) Do people live in your house? * Sounds silly, but people cough, sneeze, constantly shed skin, etc. We are constant pollution producers. 8) If you open your windows for 'fresh air' do you have a street, factory, animals or other pollution carrier close to your home? * Cars, factory pollution and even farm animals can create odors and/or chemicals that will float into your house.

Preventive Medicine - Ayurveda It should not be hard for anyone to imagine that man sought medicine to maintain life and gain knowledge since the time of his being pre-hominid and eating plants while learning which ones killed him. Your puppy or kitten will show this when it goes outside for the first time and eats grass to help its gastrointestinal processes.

Hypnotherapy in the Treatment of Phantom Pain Much of what goes on in our bodies is controlled by the subconscious mind. A simple example is the process of moving from a sitting to a standing position. Infants (and stroke survivors also, for example) have to think consciously of exactly what their muscles need to do while they are learning to stand up, but it soon becomes automatic. Thereafter, when we want to stand up, we simply do it -- from then on, it's a process that's controlled by the subconscious mind.
