			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Whenever someone speaks of healing through affirmations, many people dismiss it as esoteric &#8211; or even nonsense &#8211; and they tend to not take it seriously. However, there exist volumes of scientific evidence that affirmations are an effective approach to healing and the achievement of vibrant health. They have even been shown to promote regeneration and rejuvenation of the body.</p>
<p>Dr. Carl Simonton of the Cancer Counseling and Research Center in Fortworth, Texas, reports on breakthrough studies that use self-suggestion (a form of affirmations) in treating disease. &#8220;We think people are now beginning to realize how much the mind and the physical body are intertwined&#8230; We know that the same pathways that are used to transmit negative things, like cancer growth, can also be used to transmit positive things that can eventually restore a person to health&#8221;.</p>
<p>How do affirmations promote health and effect healing?</p>
<p>Illness starts in the mind. When you change unhealthy thought patterns and replace them with positive affirmations, you also change the energy that flows to your physical body from your etheric body, chakras, and through your energy meridians.</p>
<p>Your etheric body is the human subtle energy field &#8211; one of the layers of the aura believed to permeate all living things. Think of it as a blueprint of what is in your cellular structure &#8211; a blueprint that reveals your state of health (or ill health) &#8211;and gives an indication of conditions that often have not yet manifested in your physical body.</p>
<p>The spoken word, such as a power affirmation, elicits a strong recuperative response in the etheric body &#8211; a healing energy that permeates to the physical body, causing healing to occur. Affirmations are powerful instruments that influence both mental and emotional patterns, which are held in the etheric field. The more frequently a healing affirmation is repeated throughout the day, the more effective it is in carrying out healing.</p>
<p>Following are power affirmations you can use to help heal, regenerate, and regenerate your body &#8211; and foster radiant health. As I&#8217;ve mentioned in the previous issues of this newsletter, choose the affirmations that feel appropriate to you &#8212; those that resonate with you, or strike an emotional chord. It is important that the words feel comfortable to you and are in line with who you are. Feel free to create one for your specific need by substituting other words that have special meaning to you:</p>
<p>* I am perfectly healthy in body, mind and spirit.<br />
* I am well, I am whole, and I am strong and healthy.<br />
* I am healthy, and full of energy and vitality.<br />
* All the cells of my body are daily bathed in the perfection of<br />
my divine being.<br />
* I am healthy, happy and radiant.<br />
* I radiate good health.<br />
* My body is a safe and pleasurable place for me to be.<br />
* My sleep is relaxed and refreshing.<br />
* I have all the energy I need to accomplish my goals and to<br />
fulfill my desires.<br />
* God&#8217;s love heals me and makes me whole.<br />
* My body is healed, restored and filled with energy.</p>
<p>There are many ways to use your chosen affirmation. You can recite it aloud to yourself repeatedly, or you may want to write it down repeatedly. The key is to repeat it over and over again throughout the day. Repeating your affirmation reprograms your subconscious mind to accept these thoughts as reality, and ultimately create changes in your life that will manifest this new inner reality.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft alignnone size-full wp-image-71" style="float: left; margin-left: 8px; margin-right: 8px;" title="image005" src="http://www.healthandfitnessadvisor.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/image005.jpg" alt="" width="290" height="200" />We all desire to be in good health and enjoy life. Often we take health for granted and only when <span id="more-68"></span>we are not feeling well start to pay attention to our bodies and causes of ailments. It is much easier to prevent illnesses than to treat them.</p>
<p>Medical research has recognized a direct link between stress and many illnesses. Stress is a chronic state of toxic feelings, such as fear, anger, anxiety, guilt or self-hate.  Harboring these feelings over long time will not only make you miserable but they can make you sick too.</p>
<p>During the times we are stressed the body releases hormones adrenalin and cortisol, which instantly increase the heart rate and thicken the blood.  They also redirect the blood away from the stomach and extremities. The body is working harder than it has to and over time it will break down and become ill. Stress weakens the body immune function and makes it more susceptible to common colds, flu and tumors.</p>
<p>Stress is a risk factor for many ailments and the most common are heart disease, high blood pressure, adult onset diabetes, stroke, depression and cancer.</p>
<p>Are You Stressed?</p>
<p>·         Have you become more irritable and less patient with your family, friends and co-workers?</p>
<p>·         Do you lack the energy for work?</p>
<p>·         Do you find yourself being more critical and sarcastic?</p>
<p>·         Have you lost the ability to experience joy?</p>
<p>·         Do you find it difficult to get up in the morning?</p>
<p>·         Do you no longer feel joy and satisfaction from being with family or friends?</p>
<p>·         Are you using food, drugs or alcohol-to feel better or to dumb your feelings?</p>
<p>If the answer to most of these questions is positive, you are stressed and your health might be at risk. You might be stressed because of marital problems, money worries, or work pressures.  Whatever the reasons, you will not able to control the outside sources of stress but you can change your own attitude.</p>
<p>How Maintain Good Health and Reduce Stress?</p>
<p>Positive Thinking and Affirmations</p>
<p>You can maintain good health and prevent diseases by controlling stress. If you build positive beliefs and release negative feelings, you will be less susceptible to stress.  For example, if you expected a promotion at work and you did not get it, you might choose to feel disappointed, angry or victimized. Any of these responses will create more stress and endanger your health. If you have a positive outlook you can treat this event as an opportunity to learn and grow.</p>
<p>You can control stress through</p>
<p>·         Positive affirmations by using affirmation software Sculptor 3.</p>
<p>·         Release of negative emotions by the Sedona Method</p>
<p>·         Physical exercise</p>
<p>·         Visualizing positive outcomes</p>
<p>·         Prayer and meditation</p>
<p>·         Healthy diet</p>
<p>·         Social support</p>
<p>·         Psychotherapy</p>
