BEING IN A HAPPY PLACE

OMG....let me start by blowing the dust off 



Time is the most valuable thing that people can spend. What we do, no matter what we take, nothing will work unless we are in a happy place - our mind is our entire body not just in our brain - In other words if we don't choose to be happy we don't choose life!

Stressing on issues be it work, money, relationship can really take a toll on one's psyche. I read this in a book last night
CONTENTMENT is not found in having everything, but in being satisfied with everything you have.

I'm one of the humbliest person that one can meet (my self opinion of course LOL) big things don't impress me little things matter to me dearly. I have never ran nothing down in life, cause I like to take things as they come.

Reading alot of things be it on FB or IG from last week and even offering words of advice to a troubled one

Guinea hen weed: A powerful Jamaican herb - News - Jamaica Gleaner - Tuesday October 18, 2011

Anamu kills cancer cells - Laboratory investigations show that anamu retards the growth of several strains of cancer and leukemia cells. In a plant screening programme performed at the University of Illinois at Chicago, more than 1,400 plant extracts were evaluated for the prevention and treatment of cancer. Anamu was one of only 34 plants identified with active properties specifically against cancer

Anamu fights infections - It demonstrates broad spectrum antimicrobial properties against numerous bacteria, viruses, fungi and yeast. Compounds in anamu directly kill and or inhibits the growth of these germs. Interestingly, many alternative medicine practitioners believe that infection plays a major role in many cancers. Anamu is widely used in folk medicine for treating infections.

Anamu relieves pain - Its traditional use as a remedy for arthritis and rheumatism has been validated by clinical research that confirms its pain relieving and anti-inflammatory effect. Researchers in Sweden demonstrated its COX-1 inhibitory properties (cyclooxogenase-1 inhibitors are a new class of popular and profitable arthritis drugs). Anamu extracts have been found to relieve pain and inflammation even when applied topically to the skin.

Anamu lowers blood sugar - While anamu has not been widely researched for diabetes, it had been documented to lower blood sugar levels by more than 60 per cent in laboratory animals. This reflects herbal medical practice in Cuba where anamu has been used as an aid for diabetes for many years.


Contradictions to anamu
Anamu has been found to cause contractions of the uterus that can lead to abortions and miscarriages. As such, it should not be used by pregnant women.
Anamu contains a low concentration of a blood thinner called coumadin. People with any bleeding disorder like hemophilia or who are on blood thinning medication should consult their health-care provider before using anamu.

DEPRESSION- SUICIDE

        This motivation for today's writing comes from the person who "tried" to commit SUICIDE yesterday by throwing their body in front of a moving train, only to survive and get stuck under the train for countless hours. Which then in turn disrupted hundreds of people commute home that depends on the metro rail system. My 35 minute commute ending up being a 3.5 hrs....not to mention that I walked for about an hour while begging my legs pls don't fail me now...LOL

     Yes most of us go thru depression every once in awhile it is NORMAL. Depression can stem from many things:: loss of a loved one's life, self esteem issues, everyday struggles that we all face, roller coaster ride that I call relationship. So we go thru feelings of loneliness & sadness, there is a saying "GOD NEVER GIVES YOU MORE THAN YOU CAN MANAGE" I've been there where I have sat a questioned GOD as to what have I done to deserve this and then turn around and make promises to never to do & so again.


There are different signs for Depression, and if one knows they have these feelings lasting for periods at a time they should definately go see a medical specialist. Even though I have been witness to someone suffering but they mask it so well, and to me that has only lead to deeper issues within.

According to the National Institute of Mental Health, symptoms of depression may include the following:
  • difficulty concentrating, remembering details, and making decisions
  • fatigue and decreased energy
  • feelings of guilt, worthlessness, and/or helplessness
  • feelings of hopelessness and/or pessimism
  • insomnia, early-morning wakefulness, or excessive sleeping
  • irritability, restlessness
  • loss of interest in activities or hobbies once pleasurable, including sex
  • overeating or appetite loss
  • persistent aches or pains, headaches, cramps, or digestive problems that do not ease even with treatment
  • persistent sad, anxious, or "empty" feelings
  • thoughts of suicide, suicide attempts

BEYONCE BEING SUED FOR STEALING DANCE MOVES

In my opinion dance moves are always copied/duplicated...there is a saying imitation is the best form of flattery. I am far from a Beyonce fan but I do respect her as a YOUNG successful woman...except for her HPUSE of DEREON line that has really flopped LOL.....so you be the judge


It is not the first time that Beyonce has been accused of borrowing dance moves, according to The Times. Two years ago she admitted that moves in the video for "Single Ladies"

Belgian dancer-choreographer Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker, one of the biggest names in modern dance, believes the pregnant American star has clearly plagiarized her work.
"I didn't know anything about this. I'm not mad, but this is plagiarism. This is stealing," Keersmaeker told a Danish blog, according to The (London) Times.
"What's rude about it is that they don't even bother about hiding it. They seem to think they could do it because it's a famous work ... Am I honored? Look, I've seen local school kids doing this. That's a lot more beautiful."

ORAL SEX LINKED TO CANCER

Increase in oral cancers linked to HPV

The human papillomavirus is contributing to the growing number of  head and neck cancers in the United States, according to a new study Monday in the Journal of Clinical Oncology.
The study found that the number of cases of oropharyngeal cancer - cancers of the tonsil, back of the mouth (throat) and base of the tongue - has been on the rise since the mid-1980s.  The study suggests that one reason could an increase in the number of people having oral sex resulting in oral human papillomavirus  exposure.
Researchers say these cancers fall into two categories–those caused by tobacco and alcohol and those caused by the sexually transmitted virus, HPV. They now believe approximately 70% of all oropharyngeal cancers are caused by HPV infection.
