Autism and injury from vaccination

"My daughter Lorrin Kain was injured by her one and only Diphtheria, Pertussis and Tetanus, (DPT), vaccine April 27, 1994. It was on that day Lorrin became a statistic. I also became a statistic just for being her mother. The government felt my daughter's life was an appropriate exchange for what they refer to as herd immunity. She was sacrificed for the health of all babies..."

"The fact remains that I was not treated in a way that would be called supportive or caring at all. I quickly learned that I was the enemy. My child's life was not important and I was not important either just by being her mother....I had to ask myself, if Lorrin was the one in 250,000 that has an adverse reaction, then why didn't my family get support? Instead we were bullied and told to place our daughter in an institution."

Kangen Water now in Malaysia. Comparisons with Other Ionizers

A frequent question that comes to us - is that other companies are selling their products cheaper than ours.  Well if you are looking at the RESULTS that alkaline, high ORP, small clustered water that can bring to you - you would be wise to see how other machines perform - which they claim to do.

Here, we share a medical professional who had done the actual comparisons!

Dr. Dave Carpenter shares with us his experiences using alkaline water with his patients.

He had bought and tested numerous machines (8 machines!) seeking to give himself and his patients the benefits that he had seen and read about.  Those machines did NOT DELIVER THE RESULTS.

Until he used the Enagic Kangen water machine.  He sees the latter is far superior than the Jupiter machine that he had used previously for 2 years before he was introduced to Kangen.

Tai chi helps Fibromyalgia- England Journal of Medicine

New study published in The New England Journal of Medicine shows Tai chi helps in Fibromyalgia- a disease characterized by chronic widespread pain throughout the body - in the muscle and connective tissue.

The New York Times writes:

The ancient Chinese practice of tai chi may be effective as a therapy for fibromyalgia, according to a study published on Thursday in The New England Journal of Medicine.

A clinical trial at Tufts Medical Center found that after 12 weeks of tai chi, patients with fibromyalgia, a chronic pain condition, did significantly better in measurements of pain, fatigue, physical functioning, sleeplessness and depression than a comparable group given stretching exercises and wellness education. Tai chi patients were also more likely to sustain improvement three months later.

“It’s an impressive finding,” said Dr. Daniel Solomon, chief of clinical research in rheumatology at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, who was not involved in the research. “This was a well-done study. It was kind of amazing that the effects seem to carry over.” More>>

Messages from water

'Be Like Water my friend'.

Water is a model and an inspiration for Tai chi chuan - its softness, formlessness, its lowness. But also its power as it conquers hardness (rock included).

Water also flows around, and have curves.

But in addition to what we know about water, there is fascinating results from the experiments from Dr. Masaru Emoto with water.

Basically water respond to words, intentions and even music. In the image above, "Love and Gratitude" is pasted to the container holding the water.

This is a further insights gained about the wisdom of using helpful words towards yourself (and others). As we have taught for the past 2 decades (since 1980's)- words can help you or hurt you; so choose words that help.



Watch the interview with Dr Emoto:

Usana Health Sciences Inc - company and products

I am reviewing several well known products manufactured by Nutritional companies.

In this series I'm looking at nutritional companies both of conventional marketing (through the stores) and importantly also about those companies who market via distributors by Network marketing channels. This is to give you more initial information about the companies that the distributors talk to you about.

We start with Usana Health Sciences.

Usana Health Sciences Inc is a public listed company in the New York Stock Exchange (USNA).

Usana is now a extremely large and successful health and wellness network marketing (or MLM) company. The products consists of a many health-care, nutritional products and skin-care products, in addition to a home-based business opportunity if you join as a distributor and market their products.

Usana was founded in 1992 by Dr. Myron Wentz, a microbiologist and immunologist. HQ is in West Valley, Utah in the USA.

Popular USANA products include: USANA Essentials, HealthPak, Probiotic, Calcium.
Others of high interest include Rev3 Energy drink, Sense beauty products, BiOmega™ and usana CoQuinone30, Proflavanol.

Sharing Tai chi insights on Health and Wellness at Health and Happiness Festival 2010

I'll be speaking at the Health and Happiness Festival 2010 at the JW Marriott in KL.

Now is a good time to reflect on the evolution and progress of the understanding of Tai chi, and its benefit to the society.

The Festival will draw the general public, especially those who have an interest in health and wellness and happiness.  They would include people interested in the mind-body connection.  Other healers will also visit and speak or have a booth at the festival.

In my 30+ years of teaching Tai chi chuan, I see the following as important contributions of the art to present day society:

• Quieting the mind
• Raising the awareness and consciousness of the body
  
• Ridding the body/mind of stiffness, awkwardness and tension
  
• Harnessing the healing power of chi (qi)
• Helping with striking a Balance - between 'achieving', striving, and goal-orientation & relaxing, allowing and flowing.
• Overcoming hardness with softness
• Coordination between the breath, body sensation and movements
• Meditation without ever having to sit in a cross legged position

The Festival is scheduled for 20th and 21st March 2010.  This is the second year that the Health and Happiness Festival is held in Malaysia.

SE Pendant recalled

The SE Pendant sold by eCosway was found cautioned to have enhanced radioactivity.  This was reported in Hong Kong by the  Customs and Excise Department last month in September 2009.

Samples of the seized pendants were sent to the Department of Health and the Government Laboratory for analysis and testing. Analysis results revealed that the radioactivity concentrations of radioactive thorium-232 and uranium-238 in the pendant were both above the limit recommended by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)for commodity products.

According to the Department of Health, short term contact with the pendant would not result in immediate effect to health. As the radiation dose from a single pendant may reach 50% - 60% of the annual skin dose limit recommended by the International Commission on Radiological Protection, year-long contact with the pendant may result in erythema of the skin in some individuals. The risk of skin cancer also increases with the duration of contact.

Inspiring vision for global relationships - President Obama

Inspired by this man and his vision. I have followed his speeches since he was still a senator.

President Obama shares in a very enrolling manner - in Cairo two days ago...

If you haven't yet heard, don't miss this video of Obama's "A New Beginning" which I feel brings a new scope and open up new possiblities in global relationships in a peace loving, modern world.

Something we can work together towards a better world for all.
