Message
from Bernadette Wulf
Greetings!
Someone recently asked a question that got me thinking. "How does
anyone know if they are really happy?" I guess it never occurred to me
that it could be hard to tell. It's always been pretty obvious to me.
Since happiness is one of the most important factors in health and
healing, I decided to take a closer look at it. What exactly IS
happiness? How do we know if we are happy? Can we choose to be happy?
And most importantly, how can we consciously create happiness for
ourselves?
Just my luck, Marcie Shimoff has just come out with an excellent
book on that very subject. If you are looking for ways to boost your
happiness level... or even find it in the first place, Marcie will
point you in the right direction.
I am delighted to find that there is now a better non-stick
cookware solution available, that won't kill my bird friends. I have a
pet macaw, so I've always avoided non-stick cookware. For those who
don't know, most non-stick surfaces emit toxic fumes that can kill
birds (and who knows what it does to people) when heated to a high
temperature. At last there is a safer solution to that problem!
And last but not least, how about a healthy alternative to Viagra?
Judging from the amount of spam sent out trying to sell the stuff, it
must be pretty popular, but like most prescription drugs, Viagra can
have dangerous side effects. Read on for the natural solution.
To Your Health!

Happy
for No Reason
Studies show that happy people live seven years longer than unhappy
people, yet one out of five women in America, and a growing number of
men, suffer from depression. Use of anti-depressant drugs, like Prozac.
is at an all time high. Something is dreadfully wrong with this
picture.
What if there was a way to improve your happiness level without the
use of drugs? According to Marci Shimoff, there is! Marci has
undertaken a thorough study of happiness - what it is, how to find it,
and what are the habits of naturally happy people that you can emulate.
Whether you are basically happy, or looking for a way to climb out
of the pit of depression, you will find valuable information in this
book to enhance the quality of your life from the inside out. I highly
recommend it!
"In Happy for No Reason: 7 Steps to Being Happy from the Inside
Out, transformational expert Marci Shimoff offers a breakthrough
approach to being happy, one that doesn't depend on achievements,
goals, money, relationships, or anything else "out there." Most books
on happiness tell you to find the things that make you happy and do
more of them. Although there's nothing wrong with that, it won't bring
you the kind of deep and lasting happiness most people long for -- the
kind you'll never lose, no matter what happens in your life. Based on
cutting-edge research and knowledge from the world's leading experts in
the fields of positive psychology and neurophysiology, plus interviews
with 100 truly happy people, this life-changing book provides a
powerful, proven 7-step program that will enable you to be happier
right now -- no matter where you start.
"Studies show that each of us has a "happiness setpoint" -- a fixed
range of happiness we tend to return to throughout our life -- that's
approximately 50 percent genetic and 50 percent learned. In the same
way you'd crank up the thermostat to get comfortable on a chilly day,
you can actually raise your happiness set-point! The holistic 7-step
program at the heart of Happy for No Reason encompasses Happiness
Habits for all areas of life: personal power, mind, heart, body, soul,
purpose, and relationships."

The
Safest Non-stick Pans
It's a sticky question. Ever since my daughter's pair of lovebirds
suddenly died after exposure to fumes from non-stick cookware, I have
been very aware of how potentially dangerous these pans could be to
both humans and pets. Why wasn't there a better alternative on the
market?
It appears that now there is a better option available. Though I am
not thrilled with the inclusion of aluminum in the coating (which has
been linked with Alzheimer's disease), at least this GreenPan cookware
will not fill the air with noxious gases. I personally prefer good,
old-fashioned cast iron pans, or heavy stainless steel or enamel, but
if you insist on using non-stick pans, as many people do, you might
want to consider the GreenPan.
"...this new GreenPan cookware, sold through the Home Shopping
Network (HSN), doesn't use any PTFE-based coatings or PFOA to keep food
from sticking, according to Mark Hosgood at Thermolon. GreenPan
cookware, which uses Thermolon's coatings, are made of an aluminum core
with a coating composed of oxygen, silicone, carbon, aluminum and
titanium. These pans should be safe for use around birds because they
do not contain the chemicals that are released from other PTFE-coated
pans when heated (GreenPan Premier 6-piece set, $99.90; www.hsn.com)."

Better
Than Viagra
(Editor's Note: Use
of L-Arginine in large doses can be harmful. Follow recommended dose
for each brand. Best results from long-term use.)
Any time I find a natural alternative to a prescription drug,
particularly when it is less expensive and has no known side effects, I
want to share it with the world. L-Arginine appears to be the natural
alternative to Viagra. Plus it has other health benefits, as shown in
this SmartHealth article - excerpt below:
* Precursor of nitric oxide (NO)
* Promotes circulation resulting in improved blood flow
* Stimulates the release of growth hormone
* Improves immune function
* Reduces healing time of injuries
* Plays a role in the formation of bone and tendons
* Increases muscle mass, while reducing body fat
* Supports male fertility
* Reduces risk of blood clots and stroke
* Supports normal blood pressure
* Improves vascular function for patients with angina
* Helps recovery after heart attack
* Helps prevent and treat cardiovascular disease
* Helps reduce growth of cancerous tumors
Not bad for a simple amino acid! The article goes on to say:
"L-Arginine is an excellent supplement for anyone wanting to
increase his or her sexual arousal, improve performance, and overall
health. The huge advantage this natural and safe supplement has over
Viagra is that men and women can take it, it's considerably less
expensive (Viagra costs as much as $10 a pill!), it's been proven to
work in numerous double-blind studies, and it has no side effects.
"While L-Arginine is an inexpensive way to supplement your dietary
arginine and increase nitric oxide production, an even more effective
supplement is OKG (Ornithine ketoglutarate). OKG not only is slowly
converted to arginine in the body, but is also metabolized to other
health promoting amino acids."
