Vitamins And Minerals
It is obvious that each of our bodies is unique ? there are not two human beings that are exactly the same. That is why I encourage every one to eat the best that they can and get plenty of vegetables as the first source of vitamins and minerals. That way your diet gives you the variety you need, so that your body can pick and choose the vitamins and minerals it needs to build a strong, healthy body. As many people already know, fruits and vegetables, especially leafy green vegetables, are the best source for the vitamins and minerals that we need to live a healthy life. They provide good amounts of vitamins A, C, D and E (and several others) that rank highest on the importance scale. As well, providing major such as Calcium, Magnesium, Sodium, Phosphorus and Potassium. I see a good number of people who do not get good nutrition everyday and for them I suggest a quality whole food supplement. One that I carry on my site is a super food, made of cereal grasses, such as alfalfa, barley, spirulina and wheat grass. It also contains probiotics, for digestive tract and immune system health. Flax seed meal, dulse, herbs, pectin, fiber and additional super foods too numerous to mention. It makes it so much easier to get the adequate vitamins and minerals needed to stay healthy. Instead of reaching for candy bars, coffee or other unhealthy snacks for a lift, why not reach for a serving of a super food powder or tablets of super food? You will then be getting your vitamins and minerals and increasing your health and energy at the same time. Jeannie Crabtree Article written by Jeannie Crabtree C.Ac. For

Holistic Methods: Color Therapy and Aura Soma in Steamboat Springs, Colorado
The human body is recognized as a series of colors, detectable only in the last fifty years with the technology of Kirlian Photography. The colors relate to the body's subtle energy fields, known as auras and chakras. Although these fields have only been visible in recent years, healing techniques that enhance these energetic colors have been used since Egyptian times. By manipulating these energetic fields with various treatments of what is now known as "color therapy," the body can begin to regulate its energy accordingly. One of the newest color therapy methods is called Aura Soma. Steamboat is lucky enough to have an Aura Soma practitioner, Lena Steed, who uses this color therapy in her business, Advanced Massage.

How Laughing Is Good For Your Health
When thinking about alternative medicine, most people picture plants, crystals, needles, maybe some bugs and leeches, but few realize that jokes, humor and comedy are truly medicines, in their own right. It has long been established that optimists live longer than pessimists, but now there is some hard evidence that people with a better sense of humor also have longer and healthier lives. Your "stay healthy" plan should include a joke and a 20-minute comedy show, to go with the broccoli and carrots.

Empowering Ourselves with the New Energy Dynamic
The chakras are an important part of our energy anatomy. Ideally we would like to feel that all of the chakras in our body are fully functioning. This is not the case. The un-empowering beliefs & excess electromagnetic energy within our energy anatomy, which we hold onto, create blocks.
Excess electro-magnetic (blocked energy) surrounds the fear filled & worry filled events of our life. Clearing the energy anatomy releases its buildup. This released energy then becomes available to us in the Now.
The electrical potentials in the brain pathways can be altered by an act of consciousness, i.e. intent. These intents focus our attention to various centers of the body, using our consciousness to direct the flow of energy.
Light is literally the messenger of the electromagnetic field. Light is within the essence of our cells, and the DNA. The DNA is tuned and corrected by this flow of light.
