http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/thread48597.html The Fear Factor Embarking on a new way of eating — and thinking — is a major life step, but don't let fear hold you back. In fact, fear itself can lead to failure. It can cause hesitation and uncertainty when you make important decisions. It can even keep you from trying new things entirely, or not following through when you do try. When you embark on your journey toward total wellness with The Maker's Diet, don't let fear affect your progress. You already took an incredibly important step when you decided to change your eating and lifestyle habits. Remember that courage as you progress through the program. The Bible tells us: "I prayed to the Lord, and he answered me, freeing me from all my fears. Those who look to him for help will be radiant with joy; no shadow of shame will darken their faces. I cried out to the Lord in my suffering, and he heard me. He set me free from all my fears. For the angel of the Lord guards all who fear him, and he rescues them."(Psalm 34:4–7 NLT) ~~~~~~~~~ Jordan's Tip of the Day From the author of The Maker's Diet Facing Your Fear Take some time to meditate on your fears and whether they're holding you back. Write about it in a journal, or discuss it with a friend or a family member. Sometimes identifying your fear is all it takes to start resolving it.

Healing Herb of the Week: Juniper
This conifer still grows in Israel and is likely to be the "algum timber" King Solomon requested of Hiram, King of Tyre, in Chronicles 2:8–9. Its essential oil is known as cade oil or juniper tar and is prized for its fresh scent. This essential oil is commonly used in men's fragrances and in soaps. Edible juniper berries and needles are even used to flavor smoked meats. In addition to treating psoriasis, eczema, and other skin and scalp conditions, juniper oil has been prized throughout history for its antiseptic qualities. The lignans in some junipers could also be used to produce etoposide, a drug used to treat testicular and lung cancers. A potent antiviral compound in junipers may also inhibit several viruses, including those linked with the flu and herpes. Source: Rex Russell, What the Bible Says About Healthy Living (Regal Books, July 1, 1996) Juniper on Your Table Edible, bittersweet juniper berries can add a whole new flavor to your cooking. Roast meats with them, or use them in salads and salad dressings, stuffing, and in gravies and sauces

How to Get Sick: Feed Your Baby Synthetic Formula
When it comes to feeding your baby, nature's solution is undoubtedly the best one. Breast milk is loaded with nutrients to help babies grow healthy and strong, and it also contains important antibodies that help protect them from illness. Breastfed babies are less likely to suffer from allergies, respiratory infections, and dental problems than those who are fed by artificial means. Women who breastfeed will reap the benefits, too. They'll reduce their risk of breast and ovarian cancer. In fact, breastfeeding may even help ease the symptoms of postpartum depression. Breast milk is, in many ways, the Maker's most perfect food. Jordan's Tip of the Day From the author of The Maker's Diet An Added Benefit One of the little-known benefits of breastfeeding is that it can help you shed excess weight you gained during pregnancy. You'll lose between 200 and 500 calories a day while breastfeeding — numbers that add up to big results on the scale.

How to Get Sick: Get Your Cavities Filled With Mercury
For more than 150 years, the dental profession has carefully avoided using the term "mercury" when describing the material used to fill tooth cavities for millions of Americans. They call it "silver amalgam," "silver fillings," or "amalgam fillings." The true composition of dental amalgam is, in fact, 45 to 55 percent mercury, with about 30 percent silver and other metals such as copper, tin, and zinc. Mercury is a heavy metal toxin that has been linked to digestive disorders, fatigue, emotional problems, immune system suppression, and neurological problems. While dentists have been slow to embrace the idea that mercury is dangerous, several recent court cases have put the spotlight on mercury and the health problems it can cause. Talk to your doctor about alternatives to mercury fillings. Composite fillings are entirely safe, and they blend right into your teeth. You'll help your health and you'll avoid all that conspicuous silver. Jordan's Tip of the Day From the author of The Maker's Diet The Composite Advantage Not only are composites safer for you than mercury fillings, they also come with another health benefit: They bond directly to the teeth, making them stronger and less likely to decay.

Weekend Inspiration
Strategies for Stress Relief How do you destress? Do you write in a journal, do some gentle relaxation exercises, or read a good book? Develop a list of strategies you use to keep yourself anxiety-free. You can even include things you'd like to try in the future, and things that you don't do often — like getting a massage or taking a vacation. Update this list as your needs and tastes change, and cross off strategies when they stop working for you. Keep this list where you can find it easily. Carry it in your purse or briefcase, or stick it on your refrigerator. When you feel anxious, sad, or worried, go down the items on this list one at a time until you find one that makes you feel better. Jordan's Tip of the Day From the author of The Maker's Diet Soak Away the Stress A warm bath can be a great way to destress. Keep your bathroom stocked with items for a peaceful bath — essential oils and herbs for aromatherapy, bath salts, or books and magazines.

How to Get Sick: A Modern Prescription for Illness How to Get Sick: Shower Every Day, but Don't Take a Bath For their convenience, showers in many ways have won out over baths in our culture. In fact, many contemporary apartments and homes have only shower stalls in them and no bathtubs. Although it may seem the only option for many, showering — especially in excess — can actually rob your hair and body of their natural oils. It can also alter your body's pH (especially if you're using certain alkaline shampoos and soaps). If the Maker has a preference, it might be the use of ritual bathing that combined washing in a shallow bath and sprinkling (showering for brief periods). This combination is especially beneficial for the thorough but gentle cleansing recommended for the female genital area. Jordan's Tip of the Day From the author of The Maker's Diet Watch Out for Antibacterial Soap It seems that antibacterial soaps are often promoted as the best way to keep clean. But most of these soaps contain triclosan, which may be absorbed through the skin and pose a risk to the liver. Plenty of regular soap, sufficiently heated running water, and thorough scrubbing will do the job just as well with no side effects

Consider Yourself a Masterpiece
When Michelangelo sculpted "David" or Monet painted "Water Lilies," neither of these amazing artists had any idea that their creations would eventually be considered masterpieces. Not so with our Creator. When God fashioned us, He knew He had made something to be admired for all time. And yet, His masterpiece is not complete. Daily, God sculpts us and molds us into things of even greater beauty. As you continue to do God's work and follow His plan for the way you should eat and survive, you will see how the Maker continues to increase your aesthetic, spiritual, and physical value. Jordan's Tip of the Day From the author of The Maker's Diet Create a Work of Art As God has sculpted you into something beautiful, devise a way that you can create something beautiful to celebrate. Write a poem, take a photo, or draw a picture. Find an opportunity to exhibit your artistic side and experience the rejuvenating power of creativity.

Advice for Healthy Living Eat Away at Tooth Decay Harvard-trained dentist Dr. Weston A. Price conducted a study of primitive diets after becoming alarmed by the number of cavities, crooked teeth, and deformed dental arches in his young patients. He made a five-continent expedition around the world to study how primitive societies ate and the relationship between their diet and their oral health. What Dr. Weston found in these diverse primitive societies were that most individuals had a remarkable resistance to disease and perfectly straight teeth that were free of decay. The Maker's Diet advises against white flour products, heavy sugars, and white rice — all of which promote tooth decay — and helps to improve your oral health, as well as your overall physical health. Jordan's Tip of the Day From the author of The Maker's Diet Treat Yourself to Sweet Potatoes While the consumption of sugar has led to terrible tooth decay in this country, one sweet food that shouldn't concern you is sweet potatoes. When eaten plain or in fermented form, this delicious food significantly reduces the risk of blood sugar imbalances! So have some sweet potatoes and reap their probiotic benefits
