Do you know that your brain steadily loses its weight after your 30th birthday? This “brain loss” means less ability for you to learn and keep your mind sharp. Until recently, scientists thought this type of brain loss was irreversible. The good news is that scientists were wrong about this, and now we know there is much you can do to combat brain loss. Many lifestyle choices can optimize your brain plasticity. Brain plasticity is the brain's ability to change its structures and functions to meet changing circumstances, learn new things, and heal from injuries.

We hear a lot about change. “For things to change, we must change some things”. “Insanity is to believe that if you keep doing the same things you will get a different result”. We hear “practice makes perfect”. But if we keep practicing the same mistakes over and over again we just get better at making those mistakes. Better to understand, it is “perfect practice, makes perfect." We think that change is the answer, but I am discovering in my own personal life that change is something I resist as well as everyone around me. However, growth is something we all embrace.

We now know that refining can strip a food of vital nutrients. The process of refining grains and rice separates the branny coat (bran) and the embryo of the grains (germ) from the starchy center, which is then bleached to the almost pure white that was valued more than the beige and brown of the whole grains.

Your body uses magnesium for more than 300 chemical processes to keep you healthy (and happy!).

If you ever imagine that you'll live forever in the same body, feeling exactly the same way you do now, those rose-colored glasses may not be a good thing. You may be entertaining the fantasy (sorry, but it's true) that just because you feel well today, your self-care job is done. Here are some misguided wellness statements I hear from time to time, and why they are dangerous. "I'll worry about it later...when it really gets bad!"

Why, our busy lifestyles, the Western habit of eating and drinking on the run rather than the more social 'sitting and sharing of a meal' and the accompanying fluids that many cultures follow, and often simply because other 'things' taste better than water.!

Young people rarely become afflicted with some of the serious life-threatening diseases like Cancer, Alzheimer's Disease and Parkinson's Disease. Why? Because their immune systems are operating at peak efficiency, activating and deactivating precisely when needed to eradicate whatever threat presents itself. Thus eliminating potential chronic inflammation. However, this ideal situation is far from permanent. As we grow older, our immune systems become less and less efficient due to the reduction of defensive immune cells.

However even though there may be times for the contraceptive pill or HRT one of them isn’t necessarily to balance hormones. By reducing your intake of sugar, especially processed foods that are high in sugar, these include prepacked meals, milk drinks, soda drinks, packaged cereals and breads.

When we think of Bruce Lee, what comes to mind is a uniquely special martial artist who was on top of his game compared to his contemporaries. In other words, his combat methods were far away superior to other practitioners, and there's a good reason why.

It's surprising how outdated some training methods still are today, what with all the new advances in techniques. Gyms usually have rows of machines, but this type of training lends itself to slow muscle building, not rapid fat loss. So the average person hopes a brisk walk on the treadmill or the elliptical machine will do the job. But it doesn't and he/she never significantly changes their physique. Eventually interest begins to wane, along with the belief that reaching an attainable goal is possible.

Our thoughts are things that create our realities. What we think strongly influences our emotions and where we vibrate at an emotional level will determine what we attract into our lives. For example, if we're living in a state of anger, hatred, and resentment, then we will attract this type of energy into our lives. On the other hand, if we're operating though joy, love, and compassion, we will naturally attract more of the same, high-frequency, positive experiences towards us.
