I interviewed Dan Howard several weeks ago for the Health Matters Show blog and podcast on Intentional Resting. It was a really good talk. Both of us knew right from the beginning that we had to do more. The concept of Intentional Resting is too good and too powerful not to pay a lot more attention to it. Many people, including me, find it to be a great health resource tool!

Now…Dan and I have recorded another energetic program on “how Intentional Resting can help you.” This one is almost an hour long! It’s packed full of good, free information. Hear Dan talk about how to best use the wonderful products that he has created and how other people are using Intentional Resting as a health resource tool. Each thing he has created is designed to show you another way to be healthy through such a simple, easy, and fast concept as Intentional Resting, plus how you can learn to do it for FREE! Surely this will speak to you at a deep level once you study the how, what and where with a goal of resting for your long term health goals.

The podcast airs today of course…it’s Friday! This longer program, I spoke of, airs next Tuesday, Jan 31st, and in honor of this I’m creating a special event on Facebook. If you’d like to join in, to listen and talk via Facebook, go to GET WELL HEALTH and “like” the page. When the event notice goes out, you’ll receive all the information in your Facebook message file.

Cinda Crawford, host of the Health Matters Show

During the previous two programs on Fibromyalgia, I have been encouraging you to think about and determine what is making you sick. In today’s interview we will look at why it so often happens that a major factor can be the stress of a job, family issues or virtually everything in your life! I know when I got so sick, it was all of those things combined.

If you’re suffering with physical stress, you need to take some time off and probably relax.

If you’re being bothered by mental and emotional stress and anxiety, you need to relax because your perceptions about this topic are housed in your mind, but often expressed in your body.

If you don’t relax and allow your system to re-balance itself, you will be headed towards worse illness symptoms of some sort. One person may suffer migraine headaches; the next, a backache. The next, Fibromyalgia or more. Think of the 3-legged stool we’ve talked about so often. Work to balance yourself in body, mind and spirit.

Now, I can hear you, “I don’t have time to relax. It’s two days before Christmas!” Well, I’m here to tell you that you can and should relax. As a matter of fact, time spent in rest and relaxation is a wonderfully positive way to make it through the holidays and start off your new year without feeling that you’re climbing out of the gutter!

Please join me today in welcoming and interviewing Mr. Dan Howard to the Health Matters Show about this topic of Intentional Resting.

(Today’s podcast interview is 18 minutes 2 seconds long.)

Today instead of thinking about some abstract “cause” of Fibromyalgia, let’s concentrate on what we do know: it’s crucial that YOU make it through the holidays (no worse for wear) and begin 2012 on as positive health note as possible. If you take this ands-off and indirect approach to your problem of “being sick with Fibromyalgia,” (or any illness), you may get further ahead faster. Listen to today’s podcast and hear Dan Howard and I talk about how to lower mental and emotional stress by using his “Intentional Resting” technique.

Your body wants respect, time spent “honoring” it and the necessary components that bring about your long term, good health. If you become less distracted with the stuff in life that does not matter, you have a better chance of getting this right and getting healthy again. Surely better health will follow you right into the 2012 New Year.

Speaking of that, be sure to keep tuned in to all that’s going on here at the Health Matters Show. I’m starting a new Newsletter and I will be interviewing Dan Howard for a longer, tell-all seminar. I can’t wait! He has so much more to tell us. Today on the broadcast, he goes over “why” his fabulous Intentional Resting technique works. In the longer seminar, he’ll share more goodies, plus help you learn to self-practice intentional resting. As I said, stay tuned right here.

Okay, that’s it for today. Congratulations, dear ones, for making it as well as you have this year. By listening to, following and acting upon what Dan Howard has to offer you, such as his 30-day email Intentional Resting program, you will be several steps ahead and moving forward towards your good health and eliminating a whole lot of mental and emotional stress. You need to relax and there is no better time than now.

Many blessings, Cinda Crawford

Whether you have Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome or some other health problem, it can be quite beneficial to hear excellent mind body spirit information.

When it’s accessible locally in a wellness seminar, that’s good. And if some of the information is made available to the whole world through the Internet? That’s good, too. That means the information is not only appropriate for your needs at the wellness seminar, but also timely and handy, when & where you need to access it day or night after you get back home! Truly, good quality health advice is a superb gift, one that keeps on giving, long after the moment or day has passed. {*Note: just for looking, “liking” Laura’s page and checking out the wellness seminar event, there are several “free” gifts right now! (Once on the page, go to Events.)}

Today I’m interviewing Laura Gentile, a certified life coach, personal trainer and aerobics instructor. This is the second time I’ve interviewed Laura for the Health Matters Show. (Feel free to look up her first interview, Finding Balance in Illness. She and her material were excellent!)

Today, we’re talking about her new program that she and Holistic Wellness & Motivational Fitness are putting on here in Roanoke, Virginia, on October 15, 2011 at the Hotel Roanoke. It’s called, Wellness Seminar and Conference!

This event is designed to encourage and remind you of the importance of why living healthy in mind, body and spirit is a key ingredient to longevity.

***Be sure to check out the business’s Facebook page and then click on the Events page for sign-up info, plus great pre- and post-seminar specials available to you really soon.

As one of the program speakers, I look forward to working with Laura and her crew for this spectacular event. They’re such a consummate bunch of professionals who truly do want you to have the best mind body and spirit information around!

Thank you so much, Cinda Crawford

You host of the Health Matters Show

In this fourth interview for my Fibromyalgia and CFS audience, Janice Lynne Lundy, the Buddha Chick, talks about specific ways of using mindfulness and awareness to get in touch with yourself, especially as you grapple with the startling realities of controlling your emotions while trying to heal from chronic illness. That’s tough!

Today you’ll hear Janice and I refer to this topic as Emotions Are Us at times, because the more our emotions have control over us, the more sick -or shall we say less well?- we can become.

Find all 4 of our interviews here in the month of July. I suspect Janice is a wise woman. Consider her history: she recovered from Chronic Fatigue years ago and found inner peace and better health by making daily discoveries about herself. Many of those discoveries involved her emotions. She developed an expanded practice of mindfulness and today offers it to others with her Mindful Makeover Kit plus a brand, new course for women suffering with health challenges. (*Please…don’t miss reading about this transformational body of work! Click on the link, then scan down the page. There you can read how Janice gently offers you this effective, meaningful information. Somehow it seems that she knows exactly what women suffering with health challenges need!)

Now, keep going, as you read and listen. There’s more here on the Health Matters Show today, including hearing Janice offer you her “free” e-book… .

(Audio: listen on this page by clicking the right-facing button above or feel free to download the audio file. It’s 23 minutes 51 seconds in length and packed full of info.)

As you and I choose greater freedom and not being a slave to the tough task master of ‘Emotions Are Us’, we can choose healthier emotions, a healthier self-concept, a healthier way to live daily that promotes wellness and inner peace. Will you ever be 100% healthy? No one can answer that, but you can live with more peace and that one fact will definitely promote a healthier you.

Purposefully choose this great, inner freedom. Choose health. Choose it now. I hope you listen to this fantastic interview with Janice Lynne Lundy and then mark your calendar to be back here next Friday for a video interview that is sure to knock your socks off! Janice has promised to do a guided meditation to help you with all of the fantastic health goals that you’re making for yourself. I promise it will be informative and absolutely delightful.

Thank you for joining the Health Matters Show today. I’m Cinda Crawford, your host. Mindfulness is something to learn for yourself and practice anywhere and everywhere, as you become skilled in controlling your emotions for your good health.

As I do my third interview with Janice Lynne Lundy, the Buddha Chick, we talk about self-compassion, self-blessing and how these two “self” practices are vitally important if you want to stay well from Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome or any illness. Today’s Goal: learning how to take care of yourself in more ways than simply the physical.

I urge you to read about and listen to Janice, a lady who has walked through her own deep, illness valleys (including Chronic Fatigue) and went on to regain her health. Reason? To become a teacher capable of helping others in special ways.

Metta phrases are like soothing phrases, depending on what you’re feeling in the moment. Example: ‘May I feel relaxed. May I feel safe.’

(19 minutes 14 seconds)

Note: If you and I don’t have a safe place of stillness in our lives, we cannot navigate the hills and valleys of them well at all! Instead…engaging in this type of personal practice can evoke previously felt emotions of safety and other healthy feelings. As you practice saying metta phrases, you are promoting your own health and healing! (Without side effects or additional costs.)

QUESTION: As you talk to yourself today, are you being loving and kind or are you fussing at your body for failing you?

Instead of fussing and complaining, love your body; love your whole self in return. During today’s audio podcast, Janice explains why this is such a powerful, healing concept and then she instructs you how to do it. Wow! In addition to great info today, she and I will offer you additional audio interview on Friday, July 22nd, and then on Friday, July 29th, when we do a video interview! That’s when Janice Lynne Lundy will skillfully take you through some marvelous meditations (she promised she would!). Then she’ll tell you about her brand new program Buddha Chick Training for Women with Health Challenges, which begins in September. Take a moment to review the details and I’ll see you back here next Friday. You’ll find the info on this program below:

Thanks so much, Cinda Crawford
Host of the Health Matters Show

I have two- Yes 2! Health and Happening Updates for you today. I know that you want to stay in the loop of what’s going on.

#1: Starting July 26 through July 31, the “Everything is Energy” team is running an online course that you can’t afford to miss. Truly, don’t miss the Everything is Energy World Summit.

Have you heard me say how important it is to consider everything about your energy makeup, if you want to have a chance at healing completely? If you’ve been following me for awhile, you know that’s a core belief for me, my work and what I try to teach my clients.

No matter what the health topic is– Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Lupus, Lyme, migraine headaches or any and all chronic illnesses– energy is both the root of your life blood supporting a healthy “you” and the root of all your health problems! If you don’t really understand or have a good handle on this topic, then you’re at the right place at the right time today. It’s time to get serious and learn what your “energy” is all about so that you improve your chances of getting healthier!

I’ll be there and I hope you will, too.

#2: This Friday, July 15, please return for my “FREE” interview of Janice Lynn Lundy on the Health Matters Show. (If you’re listening here online or at i-Tunes.) You won’t want to miss this third in a series of five interviews about mindfulness and how it can positively impact your health. Friday we’ll be talking about “metta practice” and how self blessing is a major part of self love…two very important self practices. (Access the first interview and the second one from here, if you need to catch up quickly. Friday will be here soon!)

Janice is the creator of the Mindful Makeover Kit, a fantastic resource for learning more about yourself, gaining skills to deal with your ever-changing and challenging life needs and then how to develop subtle but powerful ways to kick your life and health into a gear that promotes sustainable and comforting results.

We all want to live our lives at a level of achievement that is meaningful. And, we want to gain the skills of how to enjoy them in a more healthy state. Alive and kicking can be more than a phrase!

*See Jan’s link to her Mindful Makeover kit below. I truly love what she’s doing with it in helping so many people!

See you back here Friday for the third interview of Janice Lynne Lundy. And thanks for checking in here at the Health Matters Show for our health updates.

Cinda Crawford, your host

**In this Interview: What is a Mindful Makeover?, I am interviewing Janice Lynn Lundy, the Buddha Chick and discussing mindfulness. In case you missed last week’s Health Matters Show, she was my honored guest. Today we will discuss in more detail, what is a Buddha Chick and explain “how” you can be one! How fabulous is that? In Janice’s own words…

The Mindful Makeover Kit empowers women to live physically calm, mentally clear, openhearted lives, handling life’s challenges with ease. It includes 10 Modules, 12 hours of downloadable recordings, Workbook, Buddha Chick™ Affirmation Cards, and private mentoring support. Nothing short of a complete life makeover with mindfulness and self-compassion.

I believe in these concepts so much that I am working on my own Mindful Makeover. One can always learn new and improved skills for being healthier and enjoying a better quality of life.

With Janice’s expert guidance, she encourages you and I to do one thing at the time and be fully present (inside and out). Get rid of your tendency towards mind-less living. Begin to sense how the world is really impacting your life. What feelings (good and bad) are you most aware of? In your sickness, which feelings and awarenesses have you blocked out and chosen to ignore?

I urge you to “make over” your life for the better starting right now. How? By making better choices. Wiser choices. Learning the techniques and tools that Janice teaches will help you arrive at a place of balance and a better quality of health.

Today, you can hear Janice talk about the “Magic Formula” for inner peace… .

(17 minutes 27 second broadcast)

1. What is the magic formula for inner peace?
2. Learn how clarity can come to your world more clearly.
3. How wisdom arises through love, gratitude and calmness.
4. How through the 50 audio course, you can master self-pacing and find the support that you need to be healthy.
5. Learn the life-long benefits of manifesting self-compassion and gentleness towards yourself.

Yes, it turns out that mindfulness is a kissing cousin to self-compassion. As you grow in mindfulness, you can lead a life full of loving kindness. As you tap into your body’s innate wisdom, know that you didn’t ask to be sick from Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome or any illness. But you do gain advantages from living with it, if you choose to be mindful.

It’s time to embrace yourself with self-compassion and love. Do this for YOU! Discover exactly…what is a Mindful Makeover with the Buddha Chick.

Cinda Crawford, Health Matters Show

If there is anyone who knows a good bit about your personal health problem, Balancing My Life with Fibromyalgia, it’s has to be my interview guest today for the Health Matters Show, Dr. Charles Lapp. He is a Fibromyalgia and CFS specialist doctor and director of the Hunter Hopkins Center in Charlotte, NC.

I’ve interviewed him several times and known him for more than twenty years. Today I have a video for you which includes part of today’s tip #4, which I’ll sum up as, “Know what you’re using for pain, sleep and anxiety control. You need good tools that work.”

Without any exception that I know of, people classed as having Fibromyalgia endure problems with central nervous system dysfunctions, such as pain, insomnia, anxiety and fatigue. Watch the video and hear Dr. Lapp discuss these problems, particularly addressing Fibromyalgia pain and the drugs which he uses to control pain and sleep issues in his patients.

Other products (besides the ones he talked about- Lyrica, Cymbalta, Savella and Xyrem) that are used for Fibromyalgia pain and symptom control include the ever popular Ultram, Neurontin, Xanax and Klonopin, plus plenty of muscle relaxers such as Skelaxin, Flexeril and Zanaflex. Of course, let’s not forget narcotic pain relieving drugs, pain shots, nerve blocks and pain patches. You won’t hear doctors recommending narcotic drugs because they don’t tend to work very well, but they have become an accepted part of the culture with so many, many patients living their lives in extreme pain 24/7.

I am happy to bring you this video with Dr. Charles Lapp telling you about the prescription drugs that he uses in his medical practice. If you have experience with these Fibromyalgia pain drugs or other drugs, I urge you to leave your comments below. Balancing My Life with Fibromyalgia- Video Tip #4 may be an important video, but it’s by no means the last word in how each person can survive this horrible illness or figure out how to get well.

Thanks so much to Dr. Charles Lapp and each of you for joining me today!

What would your words mean if you told someone that you were getting ready to be healthy? Surely you would mean you’re not quite healthy yet, that you’re on the shy side of that goal.

Now that could mean you’re only slightly un-healthy -or- that you’re truly sick, but either way your intent is evident: You’re Getting Ready to BE HEALTHY. That is noble. That is forward thinking. That is having your motivation and goals pointed in the right direction. (e.g. leaving sickness behind you!)

In that spirit, let me tell you about my Friday Health Matters Show podcast interview guest. She is Laura Gentile, a certified professional life coach and personal trainer. I met Laura recently through a good friend and I am most impressed with not only her professional skills, but her genuine spirit that she shares with everyone she meets. Laura works with people with chronic health problems, specific to you, Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. She is motivated to help people get healthier and she uses a balanced approach of mind/ body/ and spirit to accomplish your goals.

I feel confident that this will be a powerful and informative interview that you won’t want to miss. Mark your calendar and be sure to catch this Friday’s Health Matters Show podcast/ broadcast. If you think there is any chance that you might miss it, I encourage you to sign up for this blog’s RSS feed and/or sign up for the i-Tunes instant replays. Either way you get this info, it surely will be very useful, introduce you to a skilled professional and add to your body of knowledge about how to be (get) healthy.

Yes…You’re Getting Ready To Be Healthy!

When I choose a person to interview like Dr. Robin Mayfield, I’m looking for someone who (a) has great knowledge on the subject (*in this case, Fibromyalgia), someone who (b) is positive and approachable, someone who (c) can speak to my audience in a meaningful way and add great value to the conversation -and- (d) someone with whom I feel a personal connection.

We are fortunate today to have that great combination in my interview guest. Be sure to listen to this entire edition of the Health Matters Show, plus read the blog post to the end. There are some special announcements in both!

We talk about such issues as…

(11 minutes 23 seconds)

WHY and HOW people who get Fibromyalgia may be victims of the perfect storm.

Paraphrased from Dr. Robin Mayfield:

There is no one cause of Fibromyalgia. Each person gets sick because of varied problems and disruptions of the following components: hormonal, immune system, nervous system, musculo-skeletal system, emotional/ mental, and even, possibly a ‘spiritual disconnect’.

Folks, Dr. Robin Mayfield is good at this and she helps a lot of people. Find out more about what she is doing at her Fibromyalgia website.

NOTE: She and I will be talking in depth about these issues and more on a “live” Fibromyalgia teleseminar, Tuesday, October 19 at 7 pm EST. (To determine when this broadcast will be available “live” in your time zone, use this time zone converter website.)

Two Reasons That You
Will Want to Sign Up and Attend:

A) The presentation will be “live.” You will be able to hear the information right over your phone, on your computer speakers via the webcast -or- you can catch it quickly thereafter on a link I will provide you. The audio file will be up for 30 days for each person who actually registers for this specific teleseminar! And during the broadcast…

B) Dr. Robin Mayfield will answer your personal questions!

So how do you get the information about this Fibromyalgia teleseminar event? Join my teleseminar list and I will send out the information and a special “link” several different times before October 19th. Only the “smart” people who want to know more about these horrid illnesses join my list because they know I deliver and bring them great information. Wink… wink. I encourage you… sign up now.

When you get the email concerning this event, open it and click on the link inside that allows you to register for the teleseminar. (Your notice will come from Get Well Health.) You’ll get a notice about each teleseminar, but you must physically register for each one when offered. For being on the list, you also will receive 2 “free” mini-courses with helpful and healthful information.

When October 19th arrives, listen “live” by calling in -or- go to the website address provided and get on the broadcast that way, thereby enabling you to listen over your computer speakers free of charge. There’s only about a 10 second delay difference between the live broadcast and the “free” webcast audio. And even if you call in, I still encourage you to get on the website. Once there you can see what is happening and interact with your questions and comments. Dr. Mayfield and I want your questions!

FACT:
When Cinda Crawford Interviews Dr. Robin Mayfield, it’s a very special
Fibromyalgia Teleseminar Event!

]]> http://healthmattershow.com/cinda-crawford-interviews-dr-robin-mayfield/feed/ 1 http://healthmattershow.com/fight-the-flu-bug/ http://healthmattershow.com/fight-the-flu-bug/#comments Fri, 01 Oct 2010 13:50:49 +0000 Cinda Crawford http://healthmattershow.com/?p=19365

When the notion enters your head that you need to fight the flu bug, you may experience an advance set of chills or an eery feeling descending upon you. Why? Because being able to fight the flu bug is a tough subject yet we all want to know more about how to do it and do it well. However, we may not have enough confidence in our ability to accomplish that goal.

As the flu season rolls around this year, it’s natural to wonder how you will stay healthy and survive a viral attack without contracting some form of the flu bug… especially if you have chronic, immune system related illnesses like Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Don’t despair. My guest today, Robin Thomas, is here today on the Health Matters Show again. She’s brought us great information from USANA. When you get all the data, there’s really quite a bit of good news to cheer about. Listen to the audio podcast and then read on to catch it all.

(This audio is 9 minutes 30 seconds.)

#1) Last year’s flu season wasn’t so bad. Now granted, there were people who got sick, but not the millions and millions of people that the authorities warned us would fall ill. We were to have a pandemic, remember? Very interestingly, neither did millions of the predicted deaths occur either. It’s quite telling that those same authorities cannot attribute their success to the new H1N1 flu vaccine because not much of it was administered.

In fact, the vaccine arrived so late in the flu season that scores of people had moved past the panic and fear so overly dramatized on television, magazines and newspapers. Either complacency set in or some folks had already experienced some form of the flu and found it bearable, not life threatening. They survived! In the end, literally, scores of vaccine doses were never given to anyone.

HERE’S WHAT A VACCINE ENTAILS:

a) foreign substances being injected into your body,

b) your body trying to function normally when it’s in a state of confusion over what to do with these foreign substances, and

c) if the vaccine components do do the job they are intended to do, they instigate an unnatural cascade of immune system responses which can provoke unintended and unwanted effects in your body==> energetically, mentally, emotionally, physically, and even spiritually. Say it ain’t so! Cellular memory run amok!

#2) Because of this abnormal immune response, there’s an excellent chance that vaccines MAY PROMOTE additional immune system dysfunction, especially in people who are already suffering. Think about it. If your body is under attack from some invader and gets further confused after you get a vaccine: (a) because of the influence of prescription drugs and antibiotics in your system, (b) because of your not getting enough sleep, (c) because of your eating the wrong diet, (d) because of your enduring stressful events and (e) because you’re down to your last ounce of energy and effort trying to survive, the last thing you want to do is send in a foreign cavalry of invaders whose only goal is to take over and do it their way! You might as well write off your natural immunity because it’s taken off for the hinterlands and it has no idea of how to get home.

#3) An alternative to taking the vaccine route is to do things that PROMOTE your natural health. You will find lots of good references from Robin Thomas here today and on her website. Be sure to visit it to get some great ideas and suggestions of what you can do to bolster your immune system. *Personally, I really like the purpose and useability of USANA’s “My Health Pack.” It’s just the crutch I need to really support my health daily. I won’t spend every minute thinking about what supplement I’m supposed to be taking next!

So… what’s the message here today? Make a conscious and smart decision about whether or not to get the flu vaccine. Right now this do-or-not-do situation is your hands. If you get the flu vaccine and “it” begins to do its thing (whatever that is), you automatically end up with fewer choices.

Remember to answer these questions before you get the flu vaccine: “Do I really need this flu vaccine? Can I be smart-er and take alternative steps to protect myself by boosting my immune system in other ways?” (Note: Students in my Learn How to Heal Yourself membership class, these are good questions to muscle test yourself for. If you’ve progressed that far and you’re getting good answers, your body will tell you the truth about what is and isn’t good for you.)

Good luck in your decision ~~~ Cinda Crawford

PS~~ The podcast interview material today came from a special, longer teleseminar that I did with Robin Thomas a couple weeks ago. To be able to hear information like this first hand, enroll today for my teleseminar list. I hope to have another guest coming up soon who will be talking about other aspects of the immune system and how to improve immunity.

Sometimes we flub up and the power of forgiveness must be invoked. Such was the miscommunication between my guest for the “live” teleseminar, Dr. Fred Luskin and me. I didn’t know what happened. Between him planning to be on the show and then not showing up, it remained a mystery during our teleseminar today.

It turns out Dr. Fred Luskin is fine, thank goodness. I’m hoping to get him back on a teleseminar with us sometime soon. But since you only had my thoughts (as humble as they may be) and you didn’t get to hear him, I will encourage you to not miss out on this fantastic topic. Here are three things you can do:

1) Go back and review the podcast he did for the Health Matters Show a couple weeks ago on forgiveness;

2) Take a listen to the audio from today directly below. We really did have a fabulous discussion about his 9 Steps to Forgiveness and came up with some interesting and helpful information; and…

3) Grab yourself a copy of his book, Forgive For Good

Forgiveness is a topic swirled with emotion, ignored when it’s not comfortable to think about it and yet so needed by so many of us when we are troubled by past emotional, physical or sexual turmoil. I encourage you to “not” ignore it and do what you can to explore this vital issue for yourself.

Forgiveness begs reminescence of flowers picked, the smell no longer sweet, the smell still hanging in the air of life. Choose the power of forgiveness in dealing with your flowers that linger too long… .

Thanks, Cinda Crawford
