Cognitive Discordance/ Physiological Reversal/ Unwillingness

Within all of us is an inability or resistance to change. For some it is small and not really a block to our personal development. To others it is a massive ball of negative energy, ruling and controlling our lives. When we let cognitive discordance, or as it is better known unwillingness or stubbornness into the driver seat, failure will […]

Depressed or do you need a good drink?

Depression is a symptom of dehydration. Research indicates that at least 80 named diseases are actually symptoms of dehydration.

As summer arrives in the southern hemisphere and the north begins to freeze over our attention should be turning to how well hydrated we are. Yes in cold weather drinking mineralised alkaline rich water is as important as it is on a […]

Depression or Emotional Immaturity

We tend to be quick to grab for the magic silver bullet, the wide range of anti- depressants, from alcohol, recreational and prescribed drugs to deal the emotional, mental pain we suffer.

Depression and Anxiety – What You Do Makes a Difference

At the turn of the 20th Century the Aristotle/ Newton/ Descarte mechanistic world view took a sword to the heart. Quantum Physics stepped onto the world stage and so began the re-awakening. Researchers are discovering what was already known by advanced civilisations from the past.

Another Perspective on Bullying

All great spirits met violent opposition from mediocre minds 
Albert Einstein
Being bullied can lead some to suicide or other forms of self harm. Negative self image, self criticism, a not good enough belief system can all stem from being bullied.

Oxygen, pH for Health

Kissing the Black Dog – A Journey Back to Common Sense

When i wrote Kissing the Black Dog i had no idea the confusion it would cause my rational logical brain. The deeper i dug the less evidence that seemed to exist to support the hypothesis (a careful designed and controlled experiment) or in other words a calculated guess.
