Vitality 101 Newsletter: A Practical Guide to Treating Stress and Anxiety
Hello Reader,
Stress is a funny word. Loaded with the emotional bias of being a "bad" thing, the word stress can be quite deceiving, making it harder to handle than it needs to be. So I'll offer a new way to look at it—and very effective ways to address it.
As the field of healing arts grows, it's important to remember that there are four key domains in healing:
- Biochemistry. Including herbals, nutrition and medications.
- Structural. Including areas such as manipulation, surgery, breathing, exercise and ergonomics.
- Biophysics. For example, acupuncture, Chakra work, yoga, and NAET.
- Mind-Body-Spirit. Understanding how the body is a metaphor for what's occurring at a deeper level. For most illnesses, including anxiety and even cancer, complete healing is unlikely to occur unless this is also attended to.
You'll find that healing occurs best when all four of these areas are addressed. No individual healer is likely to have complete expertise in all these areas. So as our new healthcare system evolves, and the current one heads to extinction, it's good to see health practitioners from diverse backgrounds communicating and working together more.
Let's look at ho a Comprehensive Medicine approach works when addressing anxiety and stress. Since mind-body and biochemical domains are where my expertise lies, I'll focus predominantly on these aspects. For example, the herb AnxioCalm is remarkable at restoring a healthy calm state. In head on studies, taking two twice a day was as effective as Valium medications after six weeks, with no side effects or addictive issues!
Love & Blessings,
Dr. T

Consultations With Dr. T
I treat people with CFS and fibromyalgia all over the world by providing consultations over the phone or in person, with a comprehensive "new patient" consultation session including four hours of one-on-one time with me. During this initial session, I'll review your medical lab records, thoroughly discuss the experiences you've had with this illness, answer all of your questions, and recommended a detailed treatment protocol for your case.

Plagued by Negative Thoughts? Here's a quick way to make them go away!
This is a form of EMDR or "Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing."
Every time you catch yourself in a negative thought LOOK UPWARD with your eyes (closed or open). Then move your eyes as if you're watching a fly randomly zipping about in sporadic motions above your head. You'll find that in only a few seconds your negative thoughts will clear.
What's happening is that eye movements will activate different parts of memory. Looking upward and then moving your eyes in both directions tends to activate parts of memory associated with happier feelings. Hence the expression "Things are looking up!"
It may seem improbable, but try it. You'll like it!
