The stats don’t lie, and they are oh so damning statistics! As we said last week, the more high-tech this world of ours becomes (and don’t we love it!), the more our health is suffering (don’t love that!) However, if you are smart about it, you really can enjoy the best of both worlds. But first of all, let’s identify the symptoms of the problem:
With nearly every advancement in technology, we have an equally disturbing reduction in physical activity. iPhones, iPads, computers, machinery, etc. have meant that what we used to do with physical labour we now do with the touch of a button.
17 million Aussies are overweight or obese (leaving only 6 million not!), 80% of kids are predicted to be so by 2020, and obesity has taken over smoking as the leading cause of premature death and illness.
Excess sugar consumption (and yep, you guessed it, Australia is at the top of the tree in sugar consumption, surpassing American and Europe), is the leading cause of obesity in the modern world. But isn’t sugar “fat free”??? On the surface, yes, but in reality, absolutely not!
Despite popular belief, when people sneeze, you don’t have to run! When someone coughs, you don’t have to turn your head. And when you see people popping a cold & flu pill, you don’t have to walk the other way.
Energy is one of the most common desires that we all have because it affects every thing we do in our lives! From making dinner, to going to work, to spending time with the kids, to holidaying, to socialising, you name it; all of life requires energy. Put more simply, life IS energy.
Did you know that the simple belief that aging renders us useless, disempowered, irrelevant and less able to do the things we could when we were young is so powerful that it is likely to kill us 7.5 years earlier than those people who have an empowering belief of aging.
Australia, formerly known as the Lucky Country. You may have seen this article in The Age last week, a very indepth article outlining just how much food us Aussies consume.
Riddle me this; how many hamburgers could Aussie teenagers eat if Aussie teenagers between 14 and 17 could eat hamburgers? You guessed it, 30.2 million burgers and 44.1 million serves of hot chips to go with it.
A recently published Australian study adds to the growing body of research indicating that chiropractic care is effective for migraine headaches. The analysis followed 123 individuals, aged 10 to 70 years, with clinically diagnosed migraines. Eighty-three subjects completed headache diaries over two months of chiropractic care and two months of post-treatment data collection. A control group of 40 subjects was also established. On average, experimental participants enjoyed significant declines in migraine frequency, duration, disability and medication use, compared with controls.
I know I’ve given this topic a Herald Sun headline, but the time is coming where drinking water may in fact be causing you more harm than good.
Obviously I am not talking about pure distilled water here, but the treated water, which in South Gippsland, is about to have flouride added to it.
To my shock and pleasant surprise, the mass media is beginning to take a hold of this. This kind of topic is one that doesn’t often make it in to the daily papers and news bulletins. Thankfully now, it is!
If you have lost your MOJO at the turn of the second month of the year, or if your New Year’s Resolutions are losing track, it’s probably because you don’t have the energy (which leads to not having the inspiration) to maintain high performance. If you are kicking goals, winning at the game of life, and creating great momentum, congratulations! Time to check in with yourself here to see how you are scoring

Stress is perceived to be something beyond our control. At the same time, there is not one person alive that doesn't have some level of stress in their life. This is because stress is an essential part of life, although many of us are doing everything we can to avoid it... ..learn more
