The Bible tells us that “You are fearfully and wonderfully made”… This is how our creator describes us. In defiance of this many of us think that our body must have been “Made in Taiwan” – it just doesn’t perform as well as we would expect it. We are also told that we have been made “in the image of God”… Some of us reply to this by thinking “he must be pretty ugly!” Let’s be really honest now – very few people are blessed with an excellent self-image, and spend a lot of time wishing that we looked and functioned differently to how we do.

Becoming healthy is not just a physical, BODY thing – It is a reflection of the state of your body, mind and spirit…

A daily dose of laughter can bring "serious health benefits", "humor is also a form of relaxation or stress reduction", in addition to anxiety, humor helps some people deal with aggression, laughter, along with an active sense of humor, may help protect against heart attacks...

There is no longer any doubt that increasing positive and rewarding feelings, thoughts and emotions in your mind will positively improve the chemistry of every cell in your body. A massive component of miracles involves quantum shifts in the recipient’s thoughts and feelings: Change your perspective and the world around you becomes a different place – you respond to it differently, and it responds differently to you.

There are many strategies available to change the little voices inside your head in an attempt to increase your, energy, enthusiasm, and at the same time increase regeneration, immunity and healing: From the power of positive thinking, to prayer, from counseling to self-discovery courses, from visualization to meditation…

Think of any illness. If you look up the causes in the medical text books, at the top of the list will be "STRESS"! Can you tell when you are stressed? How do you know when it is good stress or bad stress? Have you discovered the best ways for you to get rid of this stress?

I would like to introduce you to the work of a famous researcher. We have all read this scientist's best known publication. Many of us read her work as children but have a long time since, forgotten the moral of her story...

Maybe your current health concerns are more than burdens and annoyances. Maybe the process of discovering the balances in your lifestyle that will lead to healing will be the making of you; if you will let it. Maybe the very pig headedness that makes a male ignore the condition of his back for years, will be the same persistence that sees him stick to a regular exercise program. Maybe a woman grappling with hormonal and reproductive organ problems, in her journeys for answers, will uncover the emotional hurts that have lead to her illness, but have also prevented her from feeling real joy in her life: The possibilities are endless?

It's your story: Make it a good read!!

It’s almost a cliché when you ask Christians how they should take care of their bodies: The reflex-like response is to “treat your body as a temple”. BUT! What does that really mean? How do you treat a temple? How many people succeed in this obscure venture?

Here’s a question that we need to ask ourselves: Is our body (temple) a commanding and beautiful structure; a visible testimony to God’s wonder and power? Is it “under construction” with God acting as foreman, or is it a damaged ruin, requiring a new inspired act of rebuilding?

When you look at the list of the most stressful events that can happen to each of us during our lives, you will see things like; death of a loved one, change of job, moving house. Stress can be the worst thing for your health. Now what is it about the most stressful events that creates problems and starts to erode your wellbeing?

What I want to talk about is another aspect of stress – the stress of change. The bigger the change, the bigger the stress! Now, can an outsider predict how much stress is going to come from a certain amount of change in your life? The obvious answer is no...

After 18 years of working with the health care of both sexes and all age groups, I have to say that certain adult male behaviours perplex me to this day: Particularly when it comes to looking after their health! This has lead me to share with you what I call the "Complete Idiot's Guide to Men's Health". Let's take a look at some of the predominant male health behaviours...

Are you man enough to take the health bull by the horns and start to do what it takes to ensure you will be the best grandad in the world?

Being a woman has become a medical procedure. I have a theory that because health care has been largely dominated by the male species, the female experience has become an issue of control:

What will it take for the female movement to demand liberation from a masculine health care model? Is the time approaching when white coats will be burned instead of bras? But more essential in the quest for female health liberation will be the demand for personal choice and empowerment – You have the vote; you have (supposedly) equal opportunity in the workplace; you have numerous social and personal freedoms that would once have been shunned; NOW is the time to start to exercise your consumer rights in the health and wellness arenas.

Here are some guidelines for how this liberation might begin…

One seventh, $1.5 trillion, of the U.S. economy today is devoted to the healthcare business, what Paul Zane Pilzer, author of the Wellness Revolution, refers to as the "Sickness Industry." However, by the year 2010, this best-selling economist predicts an additional $1 trillion of the economy will be devoted to products and services which keep us healthy, make us look or feel better, slow down the effects of aging, and prevent diseases from developing altogether. The implications of the shift to proactive wellness are far reaching from health to beauty to food to medicine.

So what is “Wellness”? To me the best way to describe wellness is that it is the combination of attitude and strategy that we use to achieve and maintain good health: It is the vehicle by which an individual can actively strive towards good health. With this in mind I would like to share with you the highlights and the lowlights of my top 100 Hit Parade of the paths to navigate the way of Wellness, while at the same time avoiding being taken on a joy-ride…

Have you ever wondered why when you get run down or sick, it tends to hit you in the same part of your body, seemingly every time?

We all seem to have our weak spots and if they recur often enough and severely enough we usually give our seemingly permanent residents a name: Migraine, Asthma, Irritable Bowel, Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue, Sinusitis, Depression and so on.

"Patterns” can develop in our nervous system when it comes to how we respond to chemical, physical, mental and/or emotional stresses and strains: basically similar to a “habit” forming.]

To understand why this happens we need to learn some more about the finer workings of the nervous system. Yes, that's right – It's not due to your lungs, muscles, immunity, or any other organ for that matter, that illness patterns recur. It all starts in your nerves...

When it comes to health, it would appear that there are only two choices: illness by accident or health by design.

There is a counterculture that sees the development of illness from another viewpoint. Illness does not come from the outside in, but from the inside out.

This alternative philosophy leads to its own set of behaviours – if the internal environment of the human body determines which illness and sicknesses will be allowed to express themselves then to control and change this environment is the key to reducing the dangers from potential maladies.

THIS is the idea of health by design...

You deserve to be Super Healthy; You need to be Super Healthy; You owe it to all those that love you to be Super Healthy; You should be Super Healthy; You CAN be Super Healthy.
All the statistics suggest that those of us who enjoy the most opportunity to be Super Healthy – those of us living in the affluent western world – are falling well short of this possibility. The most developed, affluent, free and democratic societies are also the most sickly, fat, unfit, arthritic, diabetic, atherosclerotic, unhappy and cancerous.
The greatest privilege that our western societies enjoy is the ability to choose – we have more free will than any other culture in the history of the world. It would appear obvious that we have been making some pretty bad individual and corporate choices.
This program aims to offer the individual a new set of choices; ones which will lead to the Super Healthy outcomes that each of us deserves…

The 10 natural steps to improving mental health and brain function:

Too many people are resorting to synthetic psychoactive drugs to try and improve their brain and mental function. Prescriptions for Ritalin and Dexamphetamine are on the rise, Antidepressant sales are up, and the latest mix of street drugs has never been more accessible and affordable. Children who don't fit into the behavioural box at school are being put on stimulants in the hope of a quick fix, teens and adults struggling against the battles of life are being offered emotional inhibitors as a first resort, and many of the newer social drugs are uppers with tragic risk attached.

In contrast to this synthetic culture which is prevailing, there are natural strategies that exist which can help to nourish and stimulate the brain to produce its' own internal "feel good -- work well" chemistry.

Dr Nick Hodgson, Chiropractor and Wellness Coach will be discussing the 10 natural steps to maximising brain health and mental function, which will include discussion of improving issues like ADHD, Autism, Depression and Anxiety.
