Two great  things you can do for your health are:
1) become part of something bigger than yourself
2) help someone else.

These are not suggestions you will generally hear from your doctor, (though perhaps you would from a therapist) and yet these are vital for health.

Using the computer can both increase isolation or broaden your world. Studies show that human connection is a vital component of health. Hours spent on line, excluding real people can diminish  health.   Conversely, the ability to establish community on-line can help others as we share common experiences, differences, problems, & triumphs.

The Internet  can also help you take action to help others right from your own home. Feeling good about helping others changes your chemistry, which changes your vibration.  Healing is about changing your chemistry and increasing your vibration.

There are lots of ways to do that; healthy food, water, supplements, herbs, exercise, meditation, prayer, community, EFT, laughter, love.....(& more)  Thankfully, the list is extensive and possibly limitless!
You have more control and hope than you  may be aware of!


Just a reminder folks-- if you have received information that you found helpful on this site and would like to show your appreciation, I would ask that you consider passing along the benefit you received  by considering helping to support Elimu Africa, which supports schools in Tanzania.

 My friend Kristy went there to work a few years ago and was so moved by the  people there that she came home, and with the help of others started ElimuAfrica,  a non-profit organization to help the many children who grow up in great poverty and would otherwise not receive an education. She like many others who have been there fell in love with these "lovely, joyful people"  and was inspired to help to create something bigger than herself.


We so often take for granted what we have: schools, availability of paper, pens, books, computers, easy access to online information. Our kids can even get tutoring right through the computer at sites like StudyBeat.

In the abundance that surrounds us,
let us not forget the many  who have so little,
And that the school, teacher, homework, and books that our kids grumble & complain about,
make up an education that is highly prized around the world;
not something to be dreaded at the end of Christmas vacation.

As you are placing your end of the year donations, please consider Elimu Africa.

Donations can be made  by check or on line.
Even small donations are helpful to these families who live on a  a dollar or two a day.

Thank you,
Wishing you good health in the New Year,
Barb Kaiser, RN, BSN, Holistic Health Consultant
