The Value of Biofeedback

Do you ever question why you feel the way you feel?  Perhaps you think you are doing everything right- good diet, exercising, plenty of rest, and taking good care of yourself but something just isn’t quite right.  How can you determine just what that “not quite right” feeling is all about?  Have you considered Biofeedback.?  Or perhaps you know you have a few challenges?  You have committed to making some changes to improve your health.  But you are not sure if you are making the right choices.  Are they working to accomplish your health goals?  Biofeedback is invaluable in monitoring your progress and evaluating your protocol for change.

How does Biofeedback work?  There are several methods for obtaining Biofeedback.  We use 2 forms of testing to gain information for your Biofeedback profile.  The first is Biopulsar Reflex-zone technology which monitors your life energy or your chi.  The second method, BIA testing,  done through urine and saliva analysis.

However,  life energy is not static.  It fluctuates depending upon such internal influences as bad nutrition, negative thoughts, illnesses such as colds, and the flu.   Or external influences such as people, work, our environment, the seasons, and the climate can affect our life energy.  Any of these influences can drag down our life energy.

The dynamics of life energy are represented in the reflex-zone biofeedback shown in your aura colors. The energy of each organ, or group of organs, is shown in the subject’s aura.  Colors of the aura indicate the flow of life energy of the specific organ’s energy (or frequency) wave. Therefore by observing the colors of the organs we can determine the organ’s energy or vitality.  Also, we can determine where the energy is blocked.  And by determining why the blockage or low energy exists we can devise a treatment plan or life adjustment protocol.   We can create ways to increase the energy flow to that organ or group of organs.

Let me give you a couple of examples of how we can see insufficient life energy in an organ and how we can improve that organ’s energy.  The first step is to do an Aura Reading.  By the colors of each organ, we can determine which organs have low energy readings.  Therefore we now know what organs to focus on.  In this example, we will say that the spine is showing the color grey and a numeric reading of 0.35.   We ask some questions to determine if the reading could have to do with an injury.  If there is no injury we need to determine what is causing the low energy.  However, in this case, we learn that no injury or diagnosis should indicate low spinal energy.

Also, we want to note that the client is complaining of feeling dull in the brain or foggy and overall low in energy.  They are finding it difficult to get through their day.  There are low energy readings in the neck and some of the brain areas.   Another observation is that the whole aura seems shrunken.   With these observations, I am pretty certain at this point that I know where part of the problem lies.   Therefore my next question is, how much water do you drink?  And if this person seems to be drinking plenty of water then the next question is about their salt intake.  Without proper salts, you can drink all day long and still be dehydrated as this person is.

Because our bodies are 60-70% water we must continuously rehydrate ourselves.  Everything we do dehydrates us.  However, the water we drink must be able to be absorbed by our cells or it is useless.  Because we often have a high sodium intake we think we are getting enough salt.  But is it the right salt?

Also, through further comments, I learned that this person sits all day most days and does very little to exercise.  They rarely get sun exposure.  Because of the grey areas in the brain, I suspect slight depression.  And with a few further questions and discussion, I determine that my hunch is right.  I am now ready to make some life change recommendations.

Before the changes are recommended we do a urine and saliva test.  This test further shows the degree of damage caused by low hydration.  The pH of the urine and saliva indicates the severity of dehydration.  We also learn that, in this case, dehydration is not caused by a lack of proper salts.  The salt ratios shown in the testing are in a normal range.   Furthermore, these numbers will and give us a clue to how the body is dealing with this physical damage.  Is the body finding ways to heal itself?  What rate of aging or deterioration is occurring?   Based on the results of both testings, we can now make recommendations for change.

We never make more than 3 change recommendations because we do not want to overwhelm the client.  The first thing we will change is the amount of water that is being consumed.  Because the client says they drink mostly coffee, soda, and very little water we will focus on lowering the coffee intake, eliminating the soda, and increasing the water.   Also, we will recommend limiting their daily red wine consumption to 1 glass.  Both coffee and wine (alcohol) are dehydrating.

The second change we will implement is exercise.  A twenty to thirty-minute outdoor walk every day with a long walk on the weekend is what we recommend to start.  Walking outdoors is free, easy, and has multiple benefits.  This will add exercise and sun exposure.  Both are needed.  While at work we recommend shoulder rolls and neck stretches.  Plus they need to attempt to leave their desk and walk every 60-90  minutes.

The third recommendation is to write a gratitude journal each day recording 3 things they are grateful for.  One of those items must be something about themselves – one of their characteristics that they are grateful for.

What is the value of each of these recommendations?  They are dehydrated, so the water intake is somewhat self-explanatory.  However, the spinal fluid that carries the life energy the length of the body is fluid – water-based.  Dehydration equals low spinal fluid.  That same fluid feeds, or waters, the brain.  The exercise recommendation also has a two-fold purpose.  It will energize the spine, increase circulation, and movement of spinal fluids.  Also, it will elevate the emotional level to be outside in the sunshine.  Therefore, with additional energy flowing to the brain through the spine and the eye ( sunlight intake = energy) the brain fog will improve.  The gratitude journal will also improve the overall well-being and lower depression.

How do we determine if this all works?  Once the client has followed the protocol or feels they are making progress, we can do another Biopulsar scan and BIA test for the Biofeedback.  We can see the changes in their colors and their ratios.  If we see less grey and higher spinal readings we know we are making progress.  Also, we should see the aura being more full or plumper than in the first reading.  We should also see an improvement in the ratios of salts to protein, salts to sugars, etc.

The Biofeedback that we have observed helps us see where our recommendations are working and where they need to be fine-tuned.  They may indicate that we are on the right path however the optimal life energy level is not yet achieved.  However, the client can be encouraged by their Biofeedback reading knowing they are improving because they are on the right track.

Often we see huge progress between our second and third Biofeedback reading because the client knows what they are doing is paying off!  The encouragement of success keeps them going and increases their efforts.  Once they feel their energy levels are where they want them to be we can do periodic checks to be sure they are staying on track.

Colostrum and Your Immune System

Colostrum

Can Colostrum Improve Your Immune System?

What is colostrum?

Colostrum is vital in the early lives of all mammals.  It is particularly vital for their immune system.   What is colostrum?  It is the “first milk” that a mother mammal produces just prior and after the birth of her baby.  This protein-packed fluid contains immune-building antibodies and lymphocytes along with immunoglobulins.   The newborn uses these properties to form enough antibodies to protect itself from disease until its immune system is working.  At the same time, these antibodies are aiding in establishing the newborn’s immune system.

Heal Your Gut!

Some factors of Colostrum

Some of the factors of colostrum are:

  • Its proteins also include hormones, enzymes, complex sugars, and growth factors.  These growth factors speed up tissue healing.
  • The proline-rich polypeptides normalize or balance an overactive or under-active immune system.
  • Also, it contains a peroxidase enzyme, which destroys disease-carrying microbes.
  • Furthermore, the lactoferrin it contains is able to neutralize certain types of bacteria.

Being Prepared

Being Prepared

What does “being prepared” mean?  Can “being prepared” be different for each family?   Can you determine if your preparations are truly helping your family be prepared?  What are we “being prepared” for?

With the current health crisis, as we experience worldwide pandemic created by a virus bred far away from most of us, some of us may realize that we are not prepared for a crisis.  A crisis could include everything from what we are currently experiencing to something very personal such as a business failure, layoff, or personal health crisis.  Let us look at some of the things we should be prepared for and how to prepare ourselves and our families.

Weather Crisis

We live in Florida.  On the East Coast of Florida to be exact.  We have lived in Florida since 2004 – the year of the hurricanes!  4 of them hit Florida within weeks.  We lived through and we stayed!  We experienced those in the central part of the state.  However, we have since moved to the east coast.  And yes, we have experienced another hurricane that devastated our eastern neighbors; then skirted our coast and headed north.  Were we prepared?  We were.

We grew up in Western, NY.  Lake effect storms were common.  My (Nancy) family lived in the hills 13 miles from Fillmore, NY and 12 miles from Belfast, NY.  Because of the remoteness of our farm, there were many times when we were snowed in for days on end.  Were we prepared?  Yes, we were.  Furthermore, it was easy to be prepared because we grew much of our food.  We always had a good amount of what we needed to buy at a grocery store.  We had our gas tank, grew our vegetables, and harvested our meat.  Also, we had chickens and cows so there was always milk, eggs, and butter.  The cows and animals were fed because we also grew their food.
