Getting Into The Mind

Getting off of drugs can be hard to do, but with the help of medical hypnosis, you might find that it’s easier to accomplish. You will work with a doctor who is certified in hypnosis, making this a safe procedure. The doctor can help you get to the bottom of why you are turning to drugs in order to deal with your problems in life. Once you reveal why you are using drugs, then the doctor can direct you to the proper people who can help you stay away from the drugs.

Another benefit of hypnosis is that it helps give you a deep sleep. If you sleep better, then you might not need to rely on drugs to get you through your day. You will often feel refreshed after you begin sleeping better. Hypnosis can help you deal with pain that you might have. The doctor can ask questions that delve deeper into how you feel that other people might not ask. These questions can bring about answers to some of the problems that you may have had for years. This is a way for you to gain back the control of your thoughts and feelings without turning to a substance.

Lady’s Fingers Health Benefits

In our household, lady’s fingers or Okra is another staple green that we place on the dining table. Okra is inexpensive and it is a nutritional powerhouse used throughout history for both medicinal and culinary purpose

Like the kiwi fruit (okra actually shares many kiwi fruit benefits), okra is known for its high vitamin C, vitamin K, and folate content,(although not quite as high as kiwi). Additionally, Okra is known for harnessing a superior fiber content, which helps with digestion, stabilizes blood sugar, and helps to control the rate at which sugar is absorbed.

Health Benefits of Okra:
Preventing diabetes
Promoting colon health and preventing colon cancer
Boosting digestive health
Weight management
Promoting a healthy pregnancy
Maintaining healthy skin
Protecting against free radical damage
Relief from respiratory issues like asthma, cough, or trouble breathing
Promoting eye health
Boosting mood
Constipation

Okra can be cooked in many interesting ways. On busy lazy days, one can simply blanch the Okra in a pot of boiling water with a little oil and salt. They taste great when eaten on its own like this.  My kids have no issues eating them this way, except for Cass who always insists that her Okra is dipped with a little Japanese sesame salad dressing. Sometimes I drizzle  a little garlic oil with soy sauce on the blanched Okra.  Okra tastes great when cooked in curries or stir-fried with sambal belacan.  You can create your own cooking styles with Okra, in a whatever way that you and your family fancy 🙂
