6 TRULY ALIVE | www.trulyalive.net How is Your Body Temperature? By Body & Brain Yoga
ne of the most vital principals of natural healing is body temperature. How is yours? Among the many vital signs that doctors check to determine good health,O body temperature has the narrowest normal range. e normal range is only 1 degree, between 36.5-37.5ºC (97.7-99.5ºF). It is good to be at the high side of normal. Studies have shown that just 1 degree rise in the body’s core temperature has many health advantages such as: a 5x increase in immune activity, acceleration in metabolism, higher energy e ciency, improvement of internal organ function, and more positive emotions. What is even more important is the balance of temperature in your body. We know intuitively that our brain operates better when it is cool and our abdomen functions better when it is warm. We call this state of balance ‘Water Up-Fire Down’. When the human body is under stress, it is usually reversed. Natural health can thrive when given this optimum temperature balance of warmth to cool. If we can regulate our body temperature, we can improve our health and a ect our mood and stress levels. e principal of 1º for natural healing is part of the revolutionary Solar Body Method developed by Ilchi Lee. is method includes a selection of simple and e ective exercises to make your natural healing system work at its best. Client Kat LaCoss says, “I am a retired RN with back pain, bursitis and tendonitis in hips, asthma and fatigue. A er 2 months of the Solar Body Method, my pain is lessening and so is my fatigue and mental stress. My thoughts are clearer too. I highly recommend you give this a try.”
You can discover the principles and practices behind the Solar Body Method at any of the four Body & Brain Centers in New Mexico. Schedule your 1-hour introductory session with a master healer for only $29! Call today! 505-797-2211, www.bodynbrain.com

are beginning to see the increase of heavy metals and chemical toxicity in people in staggering proportions. Where are these metals and Wechemicals coming from? ere are many blatant and hidden sources in our environment. Heavy metals can be found in foods, water, pottery, cans, computers, cosmetics, hair dyes, hair products, lotions, pesticides, dental llings, newsprint, paint, automobile goods, soil and so many other products. Both prevention and action— if exposed are important! Be sure to get good guidance on this. A buildup in your system means the breakdown of vital body functions. Lead, mercury, cadmium, arsenicum and other metals and chemicals destroy or inactivate important proteins in the body, many of which are enzymes, hormones and cell receptors. Sensory nerves of the brain can even be stunted. e result to the brain is suppression of neuron clusters which hinders the processing of information. It creates a foggy-headed feeling and memory issues. But that’s not all! Many other body systems and functions are a ected by these insidious compounds. ose with a high calcium need such as children, pregnant or aging women are at risk because heavy metals and chemicals interfere with calcium absorption and actually displace calcium in the bones. Because of these metals and chemicals, a pro-oxidative e ect also happens in the body leading to the inhibiting of antioxidant enzymes. is leads to cellular destruction. Intracellular glutathione (necessary for liver function) is depleted. Signs and symptoms include heart palpitations, restless leg syndrome, hyperactivity, depression, anxiety, ringing in the ears, digestive disturbances, Insomnia, agitation, fatigue, in ammation, reduced immune and kidney function, metallic taste in mouth, headaches, body aches and many more! It is not enough to take supplements to help pull out these toxic metals and chemicals. You must also be sure that your liver methylation pathways are open and that you can process out these metals you are pulling! Not only that, but without proper hydration and detoxing your bowel more than normal, these toxins cannot exit. Colonics and foot detoxes are very helpful!

Bill Wolfe D.D.S.
DEFINITION: The practice of dentistry that takes into account the e ect of dental treatment and materials on the overall health of the individual. Your teeth are a critical part of your body, and one cannot achieve their best health with an unhealthy mouth. Dr. Reinhold Voll (MD, PhD), my German medical professor, routinely stated that 90% of all chronic disease has an orientation in the mouth. The following list includes some health concepts of holistic dentistry:
Bio-incompatible Dental Materials: In 1826, a internal strife over the use of mercury in dentistry— e 1 revolutionary new dental restorative material called American Dental Association, and their lling material of ‘amalgam’ was introduced to the United States. e choice, as it still is today, is the mercury amalgam lling. amalgam lling was developed in England and contained In spite of numerous published scienti c studies over the silver, tin, copper, zinc and mercury in various percentages, years demonstrating the ill e ects of mercury llings in with mercury being the highest percentage at over 50%. the mouth, plus knowing that the FDA has never approved e amalgam llings were not openly embraced by the amalgam mixture as a safe dental device, mercury/ organized dentistry in America, and in 1840, members of amalgam llings are still the primary dental restoration the American Society of Dental Surgeons were required to used by dentists in the U.S. (approx.100 million mercury sign pledges not to use mercury llings.

an occupational therapist for more than twenty years, the moments that wrench my heart most are the times when a family member becomes a caregiverAs overnight. I see stress and frustration from juggling hospital bills, insurance calls and legal issues while caring for the physical and emotional needs of someone whose abilities and way of being has suddenly changed. O en, a woman will roll up her sleeves and square her shoulders. Medical and life-changing decisions have to be made quickly and she now has to take on a new role in making nancial decisions, setting boundaries and making decisions for a loved one or parent who may be unwilling or unable to hand over control. As our population ages, many current trends will change and society will have to adapt. More households are becoming multi- generational, reversing the trend a er WWII when extended family households fell out of favor. Articles on Caregiver. com cover a wide range of topics and statistics. e average caregiver is a woman caring for her mother. She copes with her new responsibilities by decreasing work hours or giving up opportunities. By age 65, she has a 48% chance of living alone and by 85, she herself will need a caregiver. We are seeing new trends to handle the impact of an aging population. For seniors who need assistance to perform at least two activities of daily living (e.g. dressing, bathing, eating, toileting) an alternative to living alone or being in a nursing home for signi cant medical care is to live in an assisted living community where they can still enjoy a level of independence.
Our approach at Ravenna Assisted Living is to build a community of caregivers, seniors, and families to support an environment and daily routine that is safe, loving and engaging. It is a dynamic process including fostering healthy communication between seniors, caregivers, and families. Our commitment is to honor and celebrate life throughout the journey of aging. 505-831-4141 www.RavennaNM.com
