1. A balanced and healthy diet is essential for your cat or dog (just like humans). If possible, be sure the diet is organic. Do not allow your cat or dog to eat onions or chocolate as they are toxic to them.

2. Ages ago dogs and cats self medicated by eating herbs out in the wild. Some beneficial herbs: Milk Thistle and Dandelion (cleanses the liver) | Astragalus and Echinacea (are immune system tonics) C-Caps by PetAlive is a popular herbal medicine that includes these herbs and more. It is known for its ability to support the immune system and maintain cell health in dogs and cats.

3. Pesticides and herbicides should not be used whenever possible. Smoking in the house is also very harmful to your pets health. So stop smoking. Why kill your pet (and kids) too?

4. Do not use plastic food and water bowls. These should be made of either stainless steel, porcelain or glass. Also, be sure to rinse them well and often. This will help you avoid leaving chemical residue behind which can be harmful to your pet and it’s immune system.

5. Your pet, as always, thrives on good exercise. Take your dog for a walk or give your cat a catnip mouse to encourage his/her fitness. Physically healthy pets are much more likely to become sick, and have stronger immune systems.

6. Before you give you pets immunizations each year be sure to talk with a holistic vet. Overuse of conventional vaccinations can cause stress to the immune system and end up giving your cat or dog negative side effects.

7. Be sure to give your pet plenty of filtered, clean water. Cats can give you trouble because they tend to be picky. Some cats only like to drink from a tap, your glass or puddles of rain.

Quantum Physicist Dr. Eric Amidi And Law Of Attraction


Sep 29

Posted: under ebook courses.
Tags: , ,

A Quantum Physicist , Dr. Eric Amidi, one of a group that discovered Top Quark (the last subatomic particle) has written an ebook that deserves looked at more closely.

I have read ebooks that speak of the Law of Attraction. They always seemed dodgy and never straight to the point. I have a good hold on the the concepts, now, but none of them had showed me how to put them into use.

Dr. Amidi’s ebook is different, though. He teaches you the “The Secret Behind The Secret” The Science behind the law of attraction is what all the other ebooks had left out. (admittedly I’ve always been a bit hooked on science)

Here are 4 things that you will see change soon:

1. Places and even people will accommodate your desire(s)

2. You will notice many life changing events taking place, suddenly.

3. You can be in the exact same place that you were before, but nevertheless, your reality will begin to shift.

4. Synchronicities will start to happen. These are simply a byproduct of what you want to manifest.

Have you ever driven from the local grocery back home and the whole experience didn’t register? Your memory of the entire event wasn’t even there? If so, that was because it was all taking place in your subconscious mind. Your subconscious allowed you to make the right turns without even a thought. This is exactly how you can come to “Understand the science behind the law of attraction”

Do Away With Your Panic Attacks Using This.

A month ago I was sitting in our neighborhood Mexican restaurant enjoying a meal with my family. Suddenly 2 Medics entered and asked, “Did anyone call for help?!” We asked the waitress what had happened and she said that a lady had a panic attack in the next room. A panic attack? I never had realized that they could be serious enough to send you to a hospital. How terrible that must be. I mean it must feel like your world is suffocating you. If you deal with panic attacks then I truly hope this article helps you.

I will say right now off that I’m not a fan of prescription medication. I believe America is, generally, addicted to finding an answer to their problems in the form of a pill. Yes. Prescription’s have their uses but probably many times there is another answer besides an expensive prescription. (I am not telling you to skip seeing the doctor, just that there are other solutions for dealing with panic attacks) If you are unsure whether or not you suffer from panic attacks here are a few of the telltale signs:

1. Feeling trapped in your very own existence
2. Scared to leave the house
3. A fear of being stuck in a place that you are unable to leave or excuse yourself from
4. Regularly make excuses of why you cannot make it to social events
5. Fear of traffic (because you might get stuck in it)
6. Delaying plans for travel or holiday plans
7. Fear of speaking in front of crowds because they might lead to a panic attack

There are many programs on the net that claim to help with panic attacks. I have only found one that has seemed to stick around (has been available on the web for 6 years now), and the hype surrounding it tells the story.

Panic Away is a mini course that will teach you how to deal with anxiety and panic attacks, on your own. Doctors, psychologist’s and people suffering with panic attacks for 50 years or more strongly endorse this product.

Why Does My Dog Or Cat Keep Scooting Across The Carpet On Their Butt


Sep 25

Posted: under pet health remedies.
Tags: , , , , ,

Both dogs and cats have two small glands that are located on either side of the anus. They are called anal glands (also known as anal sacs). The anal glands are responsible for secreting a substance through ducts (located just inside the rectum). This secretion is caused by the passing of feces, under most circumstances. This substance, as you may have guessed, has a very nasty odor.

Have you ever seen your dog or cat rubbing their butt across the carpet? Yuck. I have seen my dog walk across an entire room this way haha. It’s funny..but read on. Ever wondered why they do it? Well now you have your answer. This process is known as scooting and your pet is simply trying to relieve their anal glands.

Anal glands don’t have so much of a use in domesticated animals, today. For this reason, they sometimes become clogged and cause health problems for your dog or cat. When your pet partakes in scooting it can cause damage to the anus. Scooting is your pets attempt to relieve the clogged glands. There are things you can do that will help your dog or cat. I warn you they are not so pleasant.

Since relieving your pet’s anal glands is not pleasant I will first say that there are a few natural remedies that will help to promote good anal gland health and more regular bowel movements for your dog or cat.

Analglandz is a natural medicine that is used topically to assist with regular expression of the anal glands and to keep the anus healthy.

Keeping your pet regular is also very important when it comes to helping with their anal gland health. A high fiber diet and natural remedy can go a long way in this effort. This helps to support regular emptying of the anal glands. The glands are expressed naturally when your dog or cat has regular, healthy bowel movements.

Now for the dirty part of the post. First off your vet is familiar with this but you can easily do it at home, if you have the stomach. To express your pets anal glands, manually, you must take your fingers (or a thumb and forefinger) and apply pressure inwards and upwards until you see a fluid being expressed. This procedure will have to be done less often if you use the above natural medicines for your pet, regularly, to help support their anal gland health.

Kidney Stones Common And Natural Treatments


Sep 23

There are many ways to effectively deal with kidney stones naturally using homeopathic medicines. If you are dealing with kidney stone pain and are reluctant to see a doctor (or don’t have the money for surgery) then perhaps you should seek a natural kidney stone remedy.

Kidney stones are usually not detected until and unless they begin to hurt and they hurt really bad. While inside the kidney, they are virtually painless and the really small sized stones pass through on their own. However, the larger kidney stones, while trying to pass with the urine, tend to block the ureters. This becomes painful since the blockage disallows normal urine flow. The situation becomes worse if the blockage causes bacteria to grow resulting in UTI. The most immediate course of action is a visit to the doctor.

The medications depend on the size and location of the kidney stones. A majority of all reported kidney stones are less than 5 mm in size. This means that the stone is small enough to pass on its own without medical intervention. Only about 10% of kidney stones actually require medical procedures. The doctor recommends drinking lots and lots of water or other fluids. Appropriately, drinking 2 glasses of water every couple of hours should make the stone pass through comfortably. Caution should be taken while drinking fluids apart from water. Grapefruit juice should be avoided at all costs as it may cause formation of more stones.

If the kidney stones are lodged in the ureter, then the doctors advise some Non prescription medicine, such as non steroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs) to relieve the pain. At times, certain medicines like alpha blockers and calcium channel blockers also help to pass the stone quickly and easily. The average stone passes within one to three weeks with medications. The non-treated stone may even disappear within four weeks of
the appearing of the symptoms. At times, there may be requirement of a surgical procedure if the kidney stone has not passed even after a considerable length of time or if the stone is too big to pass on its own. If the blocked kidney stone is causing UTI or damages the kidney causing bleeding, then too surgical procedure is a must.

Some procedures that the doctors undertake for such cases are:

ESWL Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy: this shock wave therapy is non-invasive and typically involves sending shock waves, under local anaesthesia, through the body that shatter the stones into tiny pieces that can pass easily.

Percutaneous nephrolithotomy or nephrolithotripsy: also called tunnel surgery, this involves sending narrow telescope through an incision in the patient’s back into the kidney where the stone is located. It is done under general anaesthesia. The kidney stone is then either removed straightaway or broken and removed. This procedure is kept for either very large stones or where the ESWL does not work.

Ureteroscopy: a ureteroscope- thin telescopic tube is passed through the urethra into the urinary tract where the kidney stone is stuck. This is also done under general anaesthesia. The telescope contains a camera so that the doctor can see where the stone is. A cage-like contraption is used to capture and remove the stone. Alternately it can be broken and removed too.

The last option remains an open surgery which is totally invasive and involves making a cut into the side or the belly of the patient and removing the stone. This is a very rare treatment and used only when nothing else works.

Help your baby deal with the emotional and physical stress of birth


Sep 22

Tags: , , , ,

Here are some great tips to help your baby deal with the stress of birth. If you are looking for a natural and proven herbal medication that can further your efforts then you should at least take a look at how WelcomeBaby Flower Essence can assist your efforts. Herbal medicines are a wonderful choice for everyone because of their gentle effects and lack of side effects.

Author: Julia Sullivan

Your newborn goes through a lot right after he’s born. Whether the birth was natural or assisted, he experiences a great deal of stress as he copes with the abrupt change in the world as he knows it. No wonder he’s a little out of sorts those first few weeks.

The first days home with baby can be trying. He’s adjusting. You’re adjusting. Everyone is a bundle of nerves. If you stay calm, however, these simple tips will ease the transition for both of you.

*Sing and talk to your baby. Your newborn begins to hear your voice while still growing inside you. By the time he is born, the familiarity of that sound has a remarkable calming effect. Talk to him, sing your favorite lullaby, and read books to him, especially stories that rhyme.

*Make eye contact. While baby’s do not have 20/20 vision at birth, they can see you. By making eye contact with your baby when you talk to or massage him, you are communicating with him, and if you watch his cues, you’ll learn how he communicates with you.

*Touch your baby. It’s natural act, yet so powerful. Stroke his arms, legs, head, and back. The sensations relax both of you and enhance your bonding. If possible, learn about infant massage techniques and incorporate them into your daily routine. Research suggests that simple massage strokes relieve colic and constipation, as well as help infants establish regular sleep patterns and form stronger bonds with their caregivers.

Hold your baby close, often. Research shows that keeping your baby close is good for him. Wearing your baby in a baby sling or carrier keeps him right where he needs to be to thrive. Cuddled next to you, baby feels your warmth and the comforting beat of your heart. The familiar rhythm helps him relax and feel secure.

Using a baby sling also frees your arms and hands so that you can do a few things around the house, while still enjoying the benefit of snuggling with your baby. And that might help you feel calmer, too.

*Respond to your baby. It’s that simple. Though crying can be nerve-wracking, it’s the only way your baby has to let you know he needs something. He cries when he’s hungry; he cries when he’s wet; he cries when he hurts or doesn’t feel well; and he cries when he just doesn’t know what else to do.

While this barrage of bawling might make you feel like crying, too, the best thing to do is simply to respond to his need. Pick him up, cuddle him, and try to figure out just what it is he needs. Soon you’ll recognize his cry for hunger over his pain cry and be able to soothe him by quickly filling the need.

Worried that you’ll spoil him? Don’t be. Meeting your baby’s needs is not spoiling him. By regularly responding to your newborn, you’re forming a healthy bond that makes him feel secure.

It’s not uncommon for moms to feel out of sync with their babies in the first few weeks. But communicating your love to him through all his senses goes a long way toward calming those delicate newborn nerves.

Tips On How To Naturally Deal With Your Dog Or Cats Breathing Problems


Sep 21

Posted: under pet health remedies.
Tags: , , , , , , , , ,

Natural remedies can be very effective in pets, who respond well to their gentle yet effective properties. After all, animals in the wild have always instinctively made use of herbs when they need health support! This means that their bodies are perfectly adapted to respond to the therapeutic benefits of herbs. Apart from their intrinsic benefits to the respiratory system, by providing additional tonic support, home remedies may also be used to complement conventional treatment of many respiratory problems such as feline and canine asthma, colds, flu and other infections.

There are many things which can be done to naturally support respiratory health in your dog or cat:

-Use natural remedies to support respiratory and immune system health.
-Minimize the use of aerosols or at least make sure that all creatures with paws are out of the room when you use your hairspray!
-Feed a preservative and colorant free diet. A raw, unprocessed diet is the most natural option for your pet.
-Do not expose your pet to cigarette smoke. Your furry companions should not be passive smokers!
-Keep your pets fit and trim - a walk a day keeps the vet away!
