Insomnia

Posted in Medical, Walking, Yoga on July 18th, 2010 by Health & Fitness Guru – 2 Comments

Insomnia can take three forms:

  1. You toss and turn instead of  falling asleep.
  2. You fall asleep okay, but then wake up repeatedly during the night.
  3. You wake up much too early and can’t get back to sleep again.

The most common causes of  insomnia are emotional stress and depression.  Other reasons for poor sleep include pain or illness,  medications  ( such as decongestants,  diuretics,  some antidepressants,  steroids and beta blockers) eating a heavy meal late at night or alcohol too near bedtime.

Techniques to Help Control Anxiety and Panic Attacks

Posted in Fitness, Medical, Yoga on February 2nd, 2010 by Health & Fitness Guru – 24 Comments

Prescription tranquillizers such as  diazepam ( Valium )  aren’t all bad.  They can help you cope with acute anxiety.  When you take tranquillizers day by day to control chronic anxiety,  they can actually cause the very problem they’re suppose to treat.

That’s because tranquillizers are addictive.  Your brain and body may develop a physical dependence on them within 4 weeks of daily use.  Then, if you try to stop using them,  the inevitable period of physical withdrawal produces  anxiety.  Therefore if you have been taking prescription tranquillizers daily for more than 4 weeks,  you need a program to help you stop taking the drugs,  since the symptoms of sudden withdrawal can be overwhelming.

High Energy secrets to wipe out Fatigue.

Fatigue isn’t a disease.  It doesn’t show up on diagnostic tests.  No drug can cure it.  There isn’t an operation that will cut it out of the body.  Some conventional doctors,  who are trained to detect illnesses with tests and solve them with drugs or surgery,  may dismiss fatigue as incurable.

Some doctors simply tell their patients that fatigue is as natural a consequence of growing older as grey hair and wrinkles,  they say you simply have to live with it.  That is sheer and utter nonsense.

That  ” triangle ”   is called age-related memory loss.  If  you ask most conventional doctors what you can do about it,  they’ll probably tell you that it’s normal,   it’s inevitable,  and you should learn to live with it.

Forget about it !
