I learned a POWERFUL lesson today about Physiology. I mean an unbelievable message. And if you’re reading this right now all the power that I’ve summoned is going to hit you like a thousand ton of bricks. And you’re going to wonder where this energy came from. And where this power is born, and I will tell you; I will share this wonderful secret that you probably already knew.

I’ve gone on a quest. A far reaching quest first of all to master my energy. I’ve looked everywhere for the power that would enable me to be a master communicator. To be the greatest speaker the world has ever known. To harness the power of a thousand selves and direct it to whatever end I desire, and I found it. I know the question is burning a hole in your mind now - the anticipation is killing you. So I’ll share it now.

Physiology is energy. What do I mean? I mean that Physiology literally is energy. It’s not merely a state of being, it’s energy. It’s the combined energy of your entire energy body. I mean your body is literally energy matter. It is being used by your brain as a material instrument with which to function in this physical world. I didn’t quite understand it before - the link between mind and body, but I do now. It’s more than simply a matter of being a functioning vehicle. It’s literally the energy mechanism that you have to function in this world. The more control you EXERT on it, the more energy you will have. Notice I didn’t say, the more control you HAVE, I said the more control you EXERT on it.

For example, I want you to hold your right hand out in front of you now while you read this. Go ahead, I know it sounds silly but DO IT NOW. Hold your right hand out in front of you and I want you to squeeze your right hand. Open it, and squeeze it tight. Do this again and again - do it a few more times. You control that right? Now I want you to take your left hand - hold it out in front of you and squeeze with your left hand now. Open your left hand, close it, open it, close it, you control that right? I want you to hold both hands out in front of you and open and close them. I want you to do it rapidly. Now, I want you go where there is a mirror. We are going to take this exercise to the next level. I know this sounds very silly, but I’m serious. If you don’t have a mirror nearby right now, I want you to print this out and I want you to get a mirror NOW this is a life changing moment. DO THIS NOW, I PROMISE YOU WILL BE GLAD THAT YOU DID. If only I could jerk you around in person and show you how important this is. But since I can’t, I want you to take full control over your laziness right now, get up, print this out, or carry a mirror over to you, or carry your computer over to a mirror. Are you ready? Do this NOW!

Now we are ready. I want you to look into the mirror with your regular “face”. By that I mean the face that you show to the world every day when you walk up and down the street. When you are driving in your car, when you see strangers walking by - I want you to make that face NOW.

Great you’re doing a fantastic job. Now - what does this “face” say about you? What kind of energy are you projecting? To go further - I want you to speak in your regular speaking voice. Say “Hello, how are you?” And I want you to think about what kind of energy you are projecting while you say this. Now I want you to do something really strange. I want you to talk to yourself about a topic that you know well. Pretend you are addressing an audience and explaining it to them. I want you to watch yourself as you talk into the mirror. If people are around - who cares, they will learn to love you again.

Now are you talking to yourself? Good keep going. Tell yourself all the things you know about the subject you know so much about. Great - you should have no shortage of information. I want you to pay careful attention to the flow and energy of your voice. The facial expressions you use to convey your message (because normally we look into the mirror and we NEVER talk to ourselves, so we never see our talking face in the mirror, or the expressions that we make while we’re talking. We live with ourselves longer than we live with anyone else, yet people know our face often much better than we do. Crazy eh? It’s time that you know more than just how your face is communicating your message to the world.)

Now as you talk I want you to pay attention to your body language. If you can get a big mirror for this exercise all the better. If you can see your full body, man you’re set! Now I want you to pay attention to the way you are framing your weight right now. How do you stand as you talk? What kind of hand gestures are you using as you speak? Are they fluid and crisp? Jerky? Dull and boring, blah blah?

This is your energy. This is your physiology. Your physiology is your energy. This is the communication vibration that you send to anyone who observes you on a daily basis. What kind of vibration are you sending out? What kind of wavelength is your communication riding on? This is more than communication - this is how you feel while you communicate. This is an emotional connection. This is energy, this is EVERYTHING! Do you understand? Can I make it any clearer? This is HUGE!

I want to mix things up now. This is going to seem pretty crazy, but hey, if life isn’t crazy - what is? I want you to play the role of someone super confident, super energetic, super charged up. I want you to be this person NOW. I want you to speak like you would as a person at the peak of their presentation. Energy level at the highest it could possibly be. More confident than a fertile rooster. More lively than a Tony Robbins seminar on crack. I want you to go to a higher level than you ever possibly thought you could take your physiology. I literally want you to FEEL yourself going beyond just NORMAL. You must break the normal threshold. You must go to a level that you would have normally considered abnormal. I’m serious now. Take it up, take it up to the highest notch you humanly can.

Talk to your self, project your energy. Gesture with full confidence, crispness, and liveliness - take full control of your body and FEEL the energy rising within you as you do so.

I want you to now change the content of your message - maintain this high level of energy. And tell yourself that you are taking full control of your physiology for now on. That you are unsheathing this material body and you are allowing the energy inside of you to flow out. I want you to fully try to grasp what this means. You are no longer going to allow the physical body and your senses to control the content or quality of your message or your emotions. Now you are controlling physiology to the highest degree possibly. I showed you in the beginning with a single hand you can control the opening and closing of a fist. You can control two hands at the same time. I want you to stomp your feet. If you doubt whether you can control your physiology for the rest of your life, I want you to laugh out loud right now directly at your own face! Do this now! I’m serious, laugh out loud to yourself anytime you think that you can’t fully control your physiology.

I want you to walk around the room now as if you are giving a lesson on controlling Physiology. How powerful it is, and how you’ve learned to take full control over your body now. How you will use it as an instrument to fully convey to the world the real you, the real message, with high energy potency.

Now you don’t always have to be at the peak of your energy state - by that I mean you don’t have to try to burn yourself out at the highest level, now I want you to say the words, “Composed” and drop it down a notch, but maintain the level of CONTROL that you have over your physiology. So your energy will come down, but your CONTROL will be maintained. I want you to speak as a COMPOSED person would speak. Gesture as a COMPOSED person would gesture. Now I want you to take it back up a notch. Go back to the highest energy level and psych yourself up again!

Now I want you to BREAK STATE. By this I mean I want you to go back to your regular face again. I want you to look at yourself BORING. And I want you to slump your shoulders and act as though you had just worked 24 hours and you had no sleep. You just ate a dozen doughnuts and watched 8 hours of TV. Drop yourself to the absolute extreme of low. I mean lower than you’ve ever been in a LONG time. I mean super low. And if you can make yourself ugly - do it now. Give yourself your ugliest looking face, mess up your hair, wear your ugliest shirts, pretend someone just insulted you - and do this all now. Feel it, drop to the lowest energy level you possibly can. This is HUGELY important. I know this is kind of depressing *tear* but what you’re demonstrating once again is FULL CONTROL over your physiology. And you’re demonstrating it on an extreme scale. Do you understand how powerful that is? You’re controlling the scale of energy through your physiology. I have not told you to do anything else other than control and direct your physiology and your physical energy has been the result. Do you understand that? You are controlling your physical energy on a MASSIVE scale. Perhaps more massive than you ever have - in an instant! You’re controlling the way you’re acting, the way you’re behaving, the way you’re talking, the way you even consume air, you’re controlling all of it to reach these higher or lower level energy states.

Now I want you to BREAK STATE again. Shake off the depression and jump back up to the highest level that you were at before. And I want you to SWEAR to yourself in the mirror in this excited state - that you will forever take control of your physiology. That any time you drop in emotional control - you will find a way to get by yourself and run through this exercise again; maximizing your gestures. Make GRAND gestures - uplift your arms and hands and bring them together. Clasp your palms together tightly, and articulate your words with your hands. Connect on every point. Emphasize with your face, and your hands, and your passionate voice. Make it very clear that you will forever control your physiology. Now that you’ve unlocked the door and you recognize it’s something you CAN control 100% just like the opening and closing of your fist, you will FOREVER control your physiology and in doing so, control your energy.

Now before we conclude this exercise I want you to do something very important. I want you to go lay down in your bed. And I want you to break state again as you do this. I want you to pretend like you just had a normal day at work. You are walking like the OLD you used to walk. I want you to lie down in bed like the OLD you would have laid down in bed. And I want you to think like the OLD you would have thought. And I want you to lay there for a few moments and let yourself relax. Just totally drop away from the excited you and relax into a calm state.

After you do this for a few minutes I want you to literally JUMP out of bed! And go crazy! Make very excited gestures; talk very excitedly, very grandly very confidently very enthusiastically. And I want you to swear to yourself that you will do this every morning for the next week - or more if you should choose. But recognize that you have FULL control over HOW you wake up in the morning REGARDLESS of how you feel. This is an important distinction. Often we let how we FEEL determine how we act. When you control how you act on a peak scale the control you can exert on how you feel becomes much more pronounced. I’m not just telling you to “smile” and be happy. I’m telling you to literally go beyond behaving like a normal person. To literally go to the realm of craziness in talking to yourself and behaving in a manner which you would never behave in a million years. Obviously within healthy confinements but in a manner which reaches into the depth of your psyche and draws out energy that you never knew you had before FEEL this experience and we’ll conclude with one final exercise.

Lay back down in bed. You’re going to program this exercise into your brain permanently. I want to sum up this experience in three words. Physiology is Energy. Physiology is Energy. Physiology is Energy. Repeat this 100 times. Then conclude by saying, “I will break any thought that may cause me to doubt whether I can control my physiology and my energy for the rest of my life - I have full control. I will not a let a single person, a single event, a single experience in my life ever cause me to lose control over my physiology. I will not let anything cause me to lose control over my physiology. I shall control my physiology for the rest of my life.”

Now remember there will times when this NEW you gets a negative reception. People won’t know how to react when your physiology is crisp, vibrant and different. Do not accept this as “rejection”. Move past this. Be willing to sacrifice the comfortable familiarity of your former self - and move into the realm of a higher energy being, capable of articulating and communicating clearly with the full bodily instrument. That’s your face, your voice, your body and projection of energy. You will notice a significant difference in all of your interactions from this time forward if you maintain a consciousness about your physiology. That means - as long as you are aware of the energy your physiology is creating - and if you don’t like what it’s creating - you control it!

Now there are some other factors at play here that you must be aware of. You must get sleep. You must exercise, eat healthy, you must drink plenty of water, you must meditate, you must, MUST eat fruit on a regular basis. These are the keys to maintaining the storage of energy. Physiology is the way of controlling it to the maximum degree. Try this exercise out in its fullest and you will NEVER be the same.

Knowledge Expands Immediately After Digestion, by James Rick
Can you consider for a moment what it means to condense an entire life experience into a 300 page book? In terms of time, energy and other resources that go into a “life experience” it’s a lot like a movie production. Sometimes hundreds of millions of dollars and several years go into making a movie. The result is condensed into two - three hours at around $6 - 10. Would you agree that is pretty incredible?

I consumed another book today. “Think Big” by Ben Carlson, Ph.D. Born on the streets and rising to the level of a distinguished surgeon, the central theme of his book was learning. Fortunate enough to have a strict but loving mother - Ben quickly learned that books took him from the bottom of his class to the top. This motivated him to learn all he could and prove that he was worth a whole lot more than he was making himself out to be at the time.

Robert Tracy, founder of Dot Foods started his multi-billion dollar enterprise out of his station wagon. It’s no accident that Robert also happened to be an avaricious reader - quoted as saying something to the affect, “I felt if I read enough books I’d know all of the knowledge in the world!”

Warren Buffet, on record as the second richest person in the world, is said to read an entire book all in one setting.

There are stories of uneducated but passionate people succeeding in life. For instance I have a friend whose father owns a paint business. The 25 years after starting his paint business he’s a multi-millionaire. Not surprisingly after 25 years of being in business his operation is almost as streamlined as you can get. Methods for painting quickly and efficiently have been perfected over the years. Although I’m sure he never once picked up a book on how to start a painting business - the amount of learning he accomplished through trial and error over 25 years would be enough to fill volumes on how to start a painting business.

What’s exciting about the knowledge of others is that we’re always given leverage on the person with more experience than us. In other words - we get to benefit from the trail they’ve blazed. Systems that have taken decades to develop can be used now by someone just starting out - and in the same amount of time it took to develop the original system, they will be exponentially further ahead.

Like take for instance take the Psychology of Achievement program by Brian Tracy. Or the Science of Personal Achievement by Napolean Hill. Or the OPA life management system developed by Tony Robbins. These systems evolved over many years and in some of the most challenging life situations. Yet in a few short days or weeks anyone, particularly a young person, can consume the knowledge of these programs and immediately be ahead of the people responsible for developing them!

So your assignment for today is this - write down these three questions and put them in a place where you can see them and answer them in your head every day.

1) What did I learn today that will aid me in the future?
2) What did I teach today that will aid someone else in the future?
3) What do I focus on daily? (Focus is the Mother of Manifestation)

Resistance is not a new word, but for many of us awareness of resistance is new. In Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary, resistance is defined: “to withstand, to strive against, to exert force in opposition, to counteract, defeat or frustrate.”

Resistance is useful if there is a flu or virus around. If your body’s immune system is working as it should, you’ll have good “resistance to disease”–you’ll stay healthy. Resistance to the temptation to do something that goes against your core values will strengthen you, while giving into that temptation will weaken your character.

Resistance can be an indicator that something isn’t quite right for you, at this time. It’s good to notice resistance and to ask yourself, “Why am I experiencing this resistance?”

There’s another side to resistance. The other side of resistance destroys the very thing that we desire. This resistance arises from a dislike for change. Humans are sort of strange in that we offer a desire to the Universe, and then we resist the very changes this desire sets in motion. For example, when I offered my desire to become financially independent, I didn’t realize that the answer would come in the shape of loss of income from my former spouse. But it did. When I asked for financial independence I had a different scenario in mind that went something like this: “My business income will increase steadily until it reaches a certain amount, then the spousal support can decrease.”

The Universe responded to my desire–just not as I had expected–and I resisted the change. The Universe knew that in order to become independent I had to first BE independent. I wanted the security of spousal income, but that emotional dependence on an outside source was holding me back from independence.

I find it easier to accept change when I have initiated it. When someone else initiates change that affects me, my first reaction is to resist. However, the Law of Attraction teaches that everything that touches my life is the result of some vibration in me. It may be a vibration I don’t like. It may be a subtle vibration I pay little attention to. It may be a vibration that has gone underground–like anger or hurt that I did not acknowledge at the time I first experienced it.

Emotions are “energy in motion.” When we try to suppress an emotion (especially one we’ve judged as negative or dangerous) it does not go away, it goes into our subconscious mind where it silently sabotages our life by setting up resistance which invites more negative experiences and creates tension between people who used to enjoy each other.

“The greatest disintegrating element in the human consciousness is resistance.” ~Charles Fillmore, The Revealing Word, 1931

Resistance doesn’t just put on the brakes to receiving our desires–Resistance disintegrates; it separates; it decomposes; it fragments our True Self. We lose our sense of wholeness. We feel disconnected from Source (God, the Divine). This disconnection begins to show up in how we feel about ourselves and how we relate to others. Soon, we are quarreling with our best friend and blaming them for the situation. Sound familiar?

What can we do about resistance? Is there an alternative? Should we resist resistance? That doesn’t work. If we notice resistance and try to suppress it or resist it–we create MORE!

The alternative is acceptance. Not resignation, but creative acceptance. I teach the history of the Law of Attraction and it’s interesting to note that in the Middle Ages there was a great persecution of anyone who held a philosophical belief that differed from that defined by political and religious authorities. People who understood the Law of Attraction, those individuals who maintained their personal power through controlling their thoughts and emotions, were faced with a serious choice: either resist the powers-that-be and die; comply with the demands of the aggressors, and deny themselves; or be creative. In that case, many practitioners of metaphics (the Law of Attraction) simply moved to Arabia where they found freedom to live their beliefs in an integral way.

Change is bound to happen. People are going to make choices which affect our lives. We are going to make choices which have an effect on others. Charles Handy said, “Change is the only constant.” How we handle change–invited or uninvited–will affect our vibration and in turn, our quality of life.

Take a few moments to notice resistance in your body, mind or emotions. What does it feel like? Restriction? Tightness? Blockage? Frustration? Confusion? Judgment? Indignation? Yes, all those feelings are the evidence of resistance.

When I’m noticing resistance, I ask my Higher Self for understanding and a creative acceptance. My prayer will be something like this: “Please show me the root of my resistance and at the same time, give me an idea of how to creatively accept this situation.”

The bottom line is: Change is going to happen. I’m either going to create resistance or acceptance. Once choice contributes to the disintegration of my character and the other strengthens my sense of wholeness. It’s my choice.

The hair loss treatments outlined here cannot provide definitive cures for all hair loss conditions, but they do represent regimes that many sufferers have found useful. In other words, they are examples of potential solutions that many patients have chosen after honestly assessing the causes of their hair loss together with their expectations.

This article will focus on four basic approaches:

1. A drugs based approach for those who don’t mind taking strong medications.

2. A commercial product approach for those who prefer a non-drug solution but who still want a treatment that has a track record.

3. A natural remedy approach for those who prefer to follow the natural route.

4. A nutritional approach for those who wish to adopt a more holistic perspective.

It remains a fact that only two hair loss treatments have been approved by the FDA and both can be classed as strong drug-based medications. Propecia (finasteride) is the treatment of choice for many men with good reason - it tends to work! It is a powerful drug that inhibits the formation of DHT in the system, eventually to a level that is sufficiently low to encourage a normal growth cycle. Rogaine (minoxidil) acts differently in that it stimulates hair growth in both men and women by overriding the prevailing hair loss symptoms. These drugs can be used either on their own or in combination. Women should seek professional medical advice before using Propecia.

The world of commercial hair loss products is much less clear cut and it is here that many scamsters ply their trade to rip-off unsuspecting customers. The best advice I can give here is research, research, and more research! Many useful products are available on the market but none have been approved by the FDA. Probably the best, and certainly most popular, commercially available products are those containing natural ingredients that have been shown in field trials to reduce hair loss and encourage regrowth. You can find out more about these products by visiting the site listed at the end of this article.

Increasingly, people are turning to natural hair loss remedies as they seek to combat thinning hair. This has an obvious appeal for many sufferers and there is growing evidence to support the view that some natural remedies may be effective in curtailing hair loss. The most popular ingredients of natural hair loss treatments include ginko biloba, green tea, he shou wu, pygeum, saw palmetto and stinging nettle. Each of these is described in more detail in an supplementary article entitled “Herbal Remedies That Offer Hope”.

It is becoming increasingly evident that poor nutrition and modern lifestyles can have a negative impact on health, and hair loss is no exception. At the most basic level, improved nutrition can minimize shedding and support other treatments that encourage regrowth. This can be achieved by:

- eating adequate amounts of protein.

- eating appropriate levels of useful carbohydrates.

- achieving a healthy balance of dietary fats.

Richard Mitchell has written numerous articles aimed at helping hair loss sufferers to deal with their condition. He has also developed several supporting web resources including www.myhairlossadvisor.net

Skin care is your first line of defense against acne and the effect it has on your skin. A myriad of medications, both over-the-counter and prescribed, can help with the blemishes and pimples associated with acne. However, a solid foundation of good skin care practices can be the difference between frequent blemish outbreaks and a more controlled and even skin appearance. Which do you prefer?

You may ask, “How can I take better care of my skin when I have all of these blemishes to deal with?” This is a commonly asked question and the reason why we developed these 5 easy skin care tips. They are intended to be an easy to follow routine, which will compliment any acne treatment regimen.

Following these 5 easy skin care tips will only take a few extra minutes each day and can make a dramatic difference in your skin appearance. And this is really what it’s all about - improving your appearance and feeling better about yourself. Follow these tips and see if you don’t notice the difference.

Gently Clean Your Face

Gentle is the key word here, as scrubbing the skin will only further irritate the acne. You should only use a gentle soap or skin cleaner made specifically for acne prone skin. Use a soft cloth to moisten the face and then apply the soap or cleaner gently to your skin, starting at the hairline and working your way down to your neck. Using your fingers, rather than a wash cloth, to work the soap around your face assures that you will not further irritate the acne.

Rinse your skin with plenty of water and pat dry with a soft towel. Again, do not scrub your face using the towel.

If you are prone to having oily skin, it may be necessary to apply an astringent to your skin. This should be done with care, as some astringents may irritate your acne. If you elect to use an astringent, it should only be applied to those areas of your face that are most oily. If you have concerns regarding the use of astringents, it’s best to consult with your dermatologist.

Avoid Touching Your Blemishes

It can be very tempting, but don’t give in to the urge to squeeze or pop pimples. What can seem like immediate gratification, can turn into something far worse. Breaking open a pustule or pimple invites bacterium to spread, causing even more pimples and blemishes. It can even result in permanent scarring.

A better solution is to just avoid touching your face altogether. Your hands tend to be dirty, oily and carry germs, which can all lead to the further spread of the acne. Just don’t do it!

Apply Makeup Sparingly

Makeup has become a part of everyday grooming, but must be used carefully in combination with an acne skin condition. Of course, the best solution is to not wear makeup at all. But if you decide it is a “necessity”, make sure that the product you use is noncomedogenic, or will not clog your pores. And lastly, never use a makeup that has an oil base, it can severely exacerbate your acne.

Shave with Care

Shaving is a normal part of male grooming, but can be a painful experience for those suffering from acne. Deciding which shaving method - safety razor versus electric shaver - is right for you is more of a trial and error process. Try both and see which is more comfortable for you.

Regardless of which you choose, there are a few recommendations that will make the shaving experience more pleasant. Try to moisten the beard as much as possible before shaving. If using a safety razor, try using a sensitive skin shaving cream. Never use dull razor blades; it will just irritate your acne. And don’t forget to change the blades on a regular basis.

Try to avoid shaving over blemishes; this can cause problems with spreading the bacteria that causes the acne. If you are experiencing a bad breakout, don’t be afraid to miss a day or two of shaving. There is no sense in aggravating the situation even more.

Avoid Direct Sunlight

We all know that a suntan makes us look healthier and can temporarily hide your acne. However, your skin becomes accustomed to the sunlight, and the acne ultimately flairs up again. A greater risk to you is that some acne medications make your skin sensitive to sunlight. This can cause a severe skin reaction from even limited sun exposure.

And as most dermatologists warn, direct sunlight will also dry out your skin, making it more vulnerable to aging and skin cancer. It just isn’t worth it! Be safe and apply a generous amount of sensitive-skin sunscreen to your face before heading out for a day in the sun.

Many people think they know what causes acne, the inflammation of skin pores that results in problems such as blackheads, whiteheads or pimples, primarily in teenagers. There are a lot of misconceptions about acne though. Officially common acne is known as acne vulgaris. And in explaining it, the answer becomes bit complicated. Acne is an inflamed disease of the skin, and it has many causes, one of which is bacteria in the pores of the skin. The body in many ways becomes allergic to this type of bacteria. This attracts while blood cells to fight the allergy, and the pores become blocked. Oil secretions will build up and provide a breeding ground for even more bacteria. Then pimples will form. These red bumps resemble small boils, which fill with a nasty puss caused by the body fighting the infection of the bacteria.

There is probably no perfect cure for acne other than outgrowing it but there are a number nothing that can be done to lessen the physical effects. First, remember that for many years, people thought that acne was caused by poor hygiene and by eating certain foods. Fried foods and chocolate were especially blamed for acne, probably because teenagers eat fried foods and chocolate commonly, but that may have been blaming the messenger for the message. There is no scientific evidence linking diet to acne. Also, while personal hygiene is important and a good thing, over washing can damage skin and actually make acne worse. But good hygiene and a good diet can’t hurt, and they might just help a little. Also using makeup that doesn’t clog pores but can at least assist the body in not making acne worse.

Treatments that kill the bacteria that cause acne included the use of antibiotics like tetracycline, doxycycline and minocyclne, which are taken orally. Also topical antibiotics or bactericides like Benzoyl peroxide or erythromycin can help. The bacteria also known as “P. acnes”, does however become resistant to the antibiotics eventually. However Benzoyl peroxide, an oxidizer, does not seem to generate resistance by the bacteria. While the acne will come back, it is a short term and temporary cure and is applied topically.

Exfoliating the skin can also help. This method can be done by using a cloth or a liquid scrub, or by using certain chemicals. Chemical exfoliating substances include salicylic acid and glycolic acid. Both of these agents cause a peeling of the top layer of skin, which prevents a build up of dead skin which blocks pores when combined with oil. This in turn, makes a breeding ground for bacteria.

Another over the counter remedy is salicylic acid, which softens skin and gets rid of dead skin cells, which in turn unclogs pores. Many face wash products contain this ingredient. Also sulfur contained in many over the counter products works well for many people. Another product is glycolic acid, which is found in anti-aging products as well as acne medicines.

There are also a number of natural remedies that can fight acne and the bacteria that causes it. Tea tree oil is gaining in popularity. It kills the bacteria and also reduces redness and inflammation. It works much the same as Benzoyl peroxide but causes less skin irritation and is carried at health food stories.

Acupuncture is used by some and is thought to alleviate hormonal imbalances n the body. Those who use acupuncture also usually suggest lifestyle changes and a change n diet, including cutting back on dairy products.

Light therapy is another natural remedy to fight the bacteria that has many adherents. Many people believe that the bacteria that causes acne insensitive to light in the blue wavelength of the light spectrum. Light therapy means shining blue light onto a patient for fifteen minutes at a time twice a week, usually for four weeks. This treatment can be expenses, running about $150 per treatment. Not all patients have had good results, but some have. Also since light in this wavelength is not harmful to the skin, there are no side effects or after effects.

Fighting the bacteria that causes acne is of major concern for many medical professionals, and surely with time they will find more and better ways to do so. In the meantime, the treatments listed here can help many people.

Although we experience the aging process as a progressive physical deterioration of our bodies, the aging process, according to some preliminary case studies appears to be more easily understood at another level of our being.

This is what is called the energy bio-field level. Many of us have heard of the term “aura”. Well this is in a small way a reperesentation of that energy bio-field. This bio-field has been shown (see Michael Talbot’s “The Holographic Universe”) to contain embedded in it one’s entire life history.

In other words, what you experience as your personality, your consciousness and the memories of your life appear to be stored in this bio-field in energy form.

I have over the last ten years been working with a new tool called the Mind Resonance Process(TM) that heals an individual of past emotional traumas which are stored in their consciousness and hence in their bio-field.

I have made repeated anecdotal observations that reveal that when such trauma is released by MRP an individual begins not only to feel younger but actually starts to “look” younger. These observations have inspired me to try to document the changes by monitoring age related markers such as DHEA levels and testosterone levels in middle aged men in upcoming studies.

It is known that both DHEA and testosterone levels decline in a rather predictable manner in mid life. I am planning to administer MRP to men in this age bracket to show whether MRP can be shown to reverse these trends.

What does this all mean? Well, it suggests that aging is related to the accumulated “emotional” trauma that we experience and “carry” in our bio-field as toxic information. This toxic information then cascades down (see “The Divine Holographic Energy Field”) and disrupts the functioning and integrity of the physical body at all levels. The result is illness and aging.

What I am now seeing with MRP is that this information can be released permanently and that this appears to “re-organize” the bio-field so that it can heal the body spontaneously. This appears then to manifest as a more youthful and healthy body.

Aging then, at the bio-field level appears to be the result of an accumulation of toxic traumatic emotional memories stored there as disruptive information. What is interesting is that all of this can be cleared (see “Eliminating the Past” and “We Are Not Our Persoanlities”)with MRP.

So the next question is, is aging really necessary? In an article entitled “Do You Love Your Body?” I make the point that it is the toxic environment created by this stored toxic information, at the bio-field level, that “convinces” or “forces” us to abandon, our physical bodies. If this environment were cleaned up however would there be as much motivation for one to choose to jettison their body? I doubt it.

I elaborate on this in a longer article entitled ” A Tuned Bio-Field: A New Definition of Consciousness” (Parts 1 &2).
