Clinical Faces of Young People Growing Up In Our Chemically Managed Society: Learn the health and wellness consequences of early introduction of chemicals in a young person’s life and long term mind, body, spirit implications
Infancy is a critical developmental stage. This developmental stage requires careful nourishing attention on the health of an infant. The wrong type of care and nourishment during this early stage of life could be the difference between a healthy human being, and an unhealthy disturbed life. One can make a serious case that the most health healing nourishment for an infant is the mother’s milk. In most cultures outside the West, mother’s milk is the primary nourishment for an infant baby for a good number of months. In these cultures, there are extremely low cases of childhood developmental and neurological issues such as severe cognitive functions, autism etc. A primary developmental issue in some of these cultures is malnutrition indicative of economic struggles and climatic erosion of agricultural infrastructures in some of the countries within these cultures.

Medical Exploitation and Abuse of Women: Learn cancer connection among women from this exploitation and abuse.
Medical medicine over the century held women’s health hostage. Historically, all era grossly misunderstood women and women’s health. This gross misunderstanding, and to some degree simple ignorance, dating back to the beginning of time lend to too many unhealthy myths about women and women’s healthy. Women’s lives have not been the same from the time man first became aware of female menstruation. Menstruation, which is one of the most important natural characteristics, that make women the most beautiful and powerful creatures on God’s planet also made women endangered species.
Reviews of literature on early life of women including the Old Testaments, and various ancient books of history reveal women suffered enormously. Men subjected women to various levels of emotional and physical pain during monthly menstrual period. These historical accounts reveal that during those early dark ages of human evolution, female monthly menstruation forced isolation on women. Women were isolated from their husbands, families, and houses of worships during periods of menstruation. Read More
Yang and Yin of Voodoo: Learn the meaning of voodoo, which voodoo you practice, and the role it plays in your health and life
Over the centuries, there has been a vast misconception of the meaning of the word “voodoo” especially when used in connection with healing since the early British explorers in Africa. The British colonial masters used the word to characterize cultural practices, traditions, spirituality, religion, and clinical practices of the Africa people the British had major contrasting differences with theirs’. The British left the impression that there is only one meaning of the word voodoo. It was intentional and deliberate on the part of the British. The narrow negative connotation was the foundation of the British brainwashing of the Africans into believing their way of life and worship was negative or evil. Read More
Dilemma of Clinical Use of Opiates in Pain Management: Learn appropriate clinical pain management with opiates, and integrated mind, body, spirit connection to healing and recovery
Question often arise concerning opiates use for pain management. Chemical use of pain management has proven over the years to cause serious negative health and life consequences for healthcare consumers. At the top of this many negative consequences is chemical dependency that leaves quality of life for many healthcare consumers and their loved ones in crisis, and in many cases less desirable.
In some cases, a physician has clinical need to halfway clinically kill his patient in the process medically known as sedation in order to restore the patient’s life or improve quality of life. Classic example is use of anesthesia in medical surgery. However, a physician does not have to continue the use of propofol for pain management following surgery. Read More
War on Sugar: Learn more about sugar and health consequences of inadequate blood sugar
This article is in response to 60 Minutes segment, which aired on April 1, 2012 addressing toxicity of sugar and a declaration of war on sugar. One can make a strong case that we have become a society that easily declares war on just about anybody and anything without clearly identifying whom or what the enemy is. The recent declaration of war on sugar is one of many health wars going on today. One of the biggest problems in these wars is that we get the public involved in these campaigns without understanding the root causes of what it is we are fighting. In many cases, we arm the public with wrong sets of facts and inadequate information. Read More
Cross Cultural Perspective on Clinical Causes and Cure for Cancer: Learn the Mind-Body-Spirit connection to causes and cure for cancer
Cancer has been equal opportunity killer for many years now. Cancer does not discriminate and does not care who it kills. It would be very difficult to find many people who have not suffered a loss from cancer. It would also be difficult to find a person who does not know someone, a close friend or relative who is not currently suffering from cancer. According to Center for Medicine and Medicaid Services (CMMS) United States of American spends over 2.5 trillion dollars on health care (CMMS, 2009). This cost translates to 17.6% of US Gross Domestic Products (GDP). Let us be very clear about this, this figure is not going down. It is exponentially going up. Time will determine what effect if any the recent reform on health care will have on this number.
Most other industrialized nations spend about half or a little less than half of what US spends on health. Japan for example spends about 8.1% of her GDP on health care. Of this over 2.5 trillion dollar spent on health care in US, 263.8 billion dollars according to American Cancer Society (2010) is spent on cancer care alone. According to the same report 571,950 Americans were expected or died of cancer in 2010 making cancer the second most cause of death right below heart disease. Read More
Battle Field Induced Psychic Disturbances (BFIPD): The cause, and why conventional Western treatment approaches for “Post Traumatic Stress Disorder” (PTSD) are ineffective—Mind-Body-Spirit connection to healing of BFIPD.
I will begin by explaining to the readers that the term (BFIPD) is not a disorder in The American Psychiatric Association (APA) Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM). It’s the term I have use to reflect the true nature of psychic disturbances people experience when exposed to horrific events of war either as soldiers or civilians. APA classified this in general term as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). From my clinical healing perspective and experience, war induced disturbances does not constitute disorder/s. It does not mean the individuals struggling with these experiences are mentally sick and need psychoactive medication to feel better.
I would also like to refresh the knowledge of the reader on three important components of a human being—the mind, body and spirit all interconnected to one. I will also explain what trauma is and how traumatic experience affects these levels of the body. My personal life experience and stories are shared in this text to elucidate the case made.
Trauma is any event or experience which could be physical, emotional or spiritual in nature that cause conflict or psychic effect within that region in every human being Juan once described as the collective unconscious. Trauma or psychic conflict occurs when the event or experience forces the conscious mind to address buried issues in the collective unconscious which the conscious mind was not prepared to address. In many cases, these issues surfacing to the conscious mind are past lives issues carried over to the present life buried deep inside the unconscious mind. Read More
When Events in Our Lives Shake the Foundation of Our Beliefs: Finding blessings beneath life difficult Challenges
From the beginning of time human character is built from the challenges of life we endured. As long as we live we will always face life challenges. Many times however, life challenges are so cruel that our values and strong rooted existential beliefs are rattled to their cores.
Citizens of the world have witnessed in the past decade some of the worst natural disasters around the globe. These events shake the core of the foundation of our individual spiritual beliefs and in the construct we call “God.” These natural disasters have raised some serious existential questions in the minds of many.

Overweight Generation: The root causes of why we have become an overweight generation.
One of my blog readers recently sent me an email asking for my opinion about a weight watchers program she recently signed up for. Her request presented me with this opportunity to honestly address never reported truth about global obesity and obese related health problems.
Weight watchers industry is a multi-billion dollar industry. There is a new weight watch program almost every other month claiming to keep the body weight off for good. There is one or two fitness center on almost every street corner in most major cities around the world. Most restaurants, including major fast food restaurants have taken some reasonable but minimal measures in the right direction to cut fat and reduce unhealthy food elements from their menus. Yet, almost majority of the world population including children are increasingly overweight and clinically obese.
From wellness and healing principles perspectives, any individual engaging in weight-loss program must have a wellness evaluation and a basic education about nutrition and body physiology. Individuals engaging in weight-loss program should be able to answer the following questions—are you well; do you know what your body composition analysis reports; is your body physiology ideal for the body size and weight you wish to attain. Everybody is not built for, and cannot attain a size six without compromising healthy functions of major organs of the body such as the heart. Oprah Winfrey is a living example of the difficulties of forcing a size in a body frame nature does not design for such size. One must be very concerned about weight-loss program that drops rapidly the body weight and size. Physiologically, nature did not design the body major organs especially, the heart to handle the physiological trauma of rapid weight loss. There are so many factors in play about your body weight gain that most weight-loss programs will not and do not address. I will delve into these issues later. Finally, is your mind, body, spirit in harmony and healthy? Will the program bring healing in your life?
Obesity and obese related health problems have been a major world health concerns for many years and wrecks the world health care budget every year. The Unites States alone have spent billions of dollars of health care budget on obese and obese related health problems alone. In my home state Oklahoma, obesity and obese related health problems cost the state approximately three billion dollars a year. Even as the state and federal government spend these astronomical beyond the eyes can see resources on obese and obese related health problems, the weight scales keep tipping over, obese and obese related death keep climbing, the states and national health care costs keep rising and there is minimal progress to show for money and resources devoted to combating obesity and obese related health problems.
Neuro Clinical Psychologist Personality Type
Psychologists & Neuro-Clinical Psychologists
What type of personality type is needed to become a Neuro- clinical psycologist? This is a question sent to me by one of my subscribers. I appreciate the interest shown by the person in understanding the personality type of neuro-clinical psychologist before deciding whether the profession is the right one her.
Before we understand ‘What type of personality type is needed to become a Neuro- clinical psycologist‘, we need to know the type of work clinical psychologists do.Clinical Psychology is a branch of medicine which investigates the depths and complexities of the mind. This analysis is done for two purposes. One is a general purpose where the clinical psychologist studies the workings of the mind and its influence on the body to develop a better understanding of how the human system works. The second purpose is to help people in therapy and improve their condition through mind-body healing principles.
Psychologists study the mind. The intricate workings of the mind and an in depth study of cognition, behavior, and affect forms the main study of the psychologists.
The specialties of this profession range from psychotherapists to clinical psychologists. Psychotherapists offer mental health services to clients. Clinical psychologists perform laboratory research and constantly strive to understand the workings of the mind.
