Is Your House Killing You?

This is 2 minute trailer of an entertaining scientific makeover TV show that had a very successful 2007 season. It is about toxins in the home. It once and for all separates the facts from the filth as it is evidence based. It certainly provides valuable insights for the viewer, so much in life we just take for granted. Eye opening. Is our house really the safe sanctuary we think it is?

Sometimes there are simple solutions that can make all the difference. See the next clip. Another TV coverage, that we came across showing a simple solution in a "wellness home".

We decided to give it a try and like the family in the clip are delighted with the results in our home. The children are eating healthy, we are exercising more, we all feel blessed with the quality air and water that is both invigorating and gives us all vitality. Last but not the least we are all having the most rejuvenating sleep. The best part is that now, neither of us is on pharmaceuticals that we have to take for the rest of our lives

Leave a comment to share a solution you might have discovered, or want to enquire about we found.

Sleep.... a solution for a healthy breakthrough.

Scientists are discovering that sleep is far more critical to human health than previously believed. Sleep deprivation has been linked to problems such as diabetes and heart disease. Lesley Stahl reports in two 13 minute segments on "60 Minutes".

Some amazing studies that are challenging our conventional beliefs and understanding about the human body and the importance of sleep. Sometimes its the simple things like a good night's sleep that make all the difference to the quality of our life.

If you are someone who does not sleep well or is affected with a health condition that you suspect might be related to your quality of sleep, leave a comment below. Let this be a record that you are not alone. I suspect that 1 in 3 people have poor sleep, are you one of them?

Climate Change - Another reason to go vegetarian

You might not see that connection straight away. I certainly didn't.

If Mark Bittman is to be believed, and I have no reason to doubt him, then the cumulative methane let out by cattle would put the car industry to shame!

In the video clip below he makes some other compelling points that would have you seriously consider turning a vegetarian. Come to think of it why not?

A point that he so poignantly makes is, that it is not the ingredients of the vegetables that are important but the vegetables themselves. Yup, Go Green! You've got my interest.

What do you think? As a people are we eating too much meat? Leave me a comment, would love to know what's on your mind?

The world now eats like us and dies like us.

Dr. Dean Ornish is a leading medical practitioner who has done some pioneering work in prevention of some of the most common health conditions of the day. Here he presents a 3 minutes tour de force to a gathering of the worlds thought leaders.




Is it possible to prevent the most common degenerative health conditions that we see around us? What can we do to keep the body, which has its own natural repair mechanism, in its peak condition? My wife came across the concept of a Nikken Wellness Home. It intrigued me. We chose to explore it further and the experience has been truly humbling. Take a look at what the Wellness Home is and leave a comment if you would like to explore further to see what possibilities this might hold for you and your family.
