Without access to our feelings, we would be forced to conclude that some current behavior is irrational because we are unaware of its antecedents; for example, phobias.
Driving our behavior, our own feelings, can be a danger to us because they are too much for the higher levels of the brain to accept and integrate. The brain has a warning system that alerts us against potential overload—more feelings than can be experienced and integrated. It says "gear up" for the onslaught of pain, and the system obeys. But if the inhibitory gating system is "leaky," it allows too much pain to get through. |
| I am proposing a radical paradigm shift for the field of psychology, one based on new theoretical frameworks that employ specific techniques to access the deepest levels of the brain so that we can free the brain's systems and allow it to function at normal levels. To do this, however, we must understand how the structure of the brain and its organic function affects our overall health. We do know, for example, that the right brain— where feeling rules—develops and is impacted before the left—where thinking reigns. |
| It establishes how successful connections are made between key brain centers, and it influences the degree of access we will have to our feelings throughout life.
Loving a child means fulfilling his needs. A baby has needs in the womb, at birth, and after. This means nurturing the child and not inflicting trauma on the baby, from conception on, and particularly not during pregnancy and the child's first three years.
A baby's development in the womb is critical, because the baby is going through critical phases of development. |
| How do we gain access to it? And, most important, how do we integrate it into our consciousness so that we are not driven by unconscious forces?
Regrettably, much of modern-day psychotherapy reinforces the split, or disconnection, between the deep primal universe and our thinking frontal cortex. The feelings leaking up from the primal universe are treated by most therapists as aberrations requiring suppression by our thinking minds, the cortex. We now know differently. |
| Her physiology was screaming volumes, and later so was she; that is, when she developed access to her unconscious. Our job, in one respect, is to merge the unconscious with the conscious, to put us in touch with what our bodies are saying. For that we need to learn the language of the deep brain, something that speaks to us constantly, if only we paid attention, yet only rarely can we speak to it. We need to learn its language, which is not much easier than learning French. What is worse, we cannot learn it through words; never through intellectual exercises, only through feelings. |
| Klonipin allowed me enough access to start feeling; otherwise I was overloaded (and vulnerable to seizures).
In a session, I would start to cry briefly and then I would start coughing and shaking and I couldn 'tgo back to the feeling. The Klonipin relaxed my body enough so that I could cry for a longer period of time and I could descend from things that bothered me in the present to the same things that bothered me in the past. I cried for one to two hours, twice a week, for three years. The biggest feeling was that everything is hopeless. |

Horizon conveniently took advantage of the fact that Federal Organic Standards say the cows must have access to pasture, and they said, "Oh well, I guess theoretical access to pasture is good enough. We are going to chain up our cows and milk them three times a day, and they will never get out pasturing unless there is a news organization coming to the farm that day. We will still call it organic." They have been doing this for four years, and there have been complaints from the Organic Consumers Association and organic farmers all over the country.

Also, easy access to the major nutrients means that industrial crops develop smaller and shallower root systems than organically grown plants; deeply rooted plants have access to more soil minerals. Biological activity in the soil almost certainly plays a role as well; the slow decomposition of organic matter releases a wide range of plant nutrients, possibly including compounds science hasn't yet identified as important. |

Their account concluded, 'That's access.' "
"I thought it was astonishing that someone who donates a lot of money to political parties was able to get through to the president personally, on a federal holiday, when he's quite otherwise occupied," Dr. Nestle revealed to me in a phone interview.
"You and I could not do that. Lobbying ... is done secretly, behind closed doors," she added, noting that financial contributions not only provide access, but also result in policies favorable to donors.

If I had access to a small sustainable local farm, believe me, I'd just get my stuff there.
Now what if, like most people, you don't have access to organic and free range? What if you can't afford it, or even find it? What if you're on a budget? What if you're a single mom with two kids who's not inclined to go shop at the natural organic supermarket far from your home and pay considerably more for marginally better stuff? Should you never eat chicken or eggs that are "conventionally" farmed or produced?
Free-Range, Organic Chicken or None at All?

Mike: At this time in human history, we have access to the most exotic and the most amazing foods of any civilization that we know of in the history of this planet. It's due to people like you who are getting this out there, but we are blessed right now with access to this food that kings would have killed for, you know?
Wolfe: It's realizing that your body's a temple and the food that you eat is holy and sacred. If you are in any way a spiritual person -- I do believe most Americans are spiritual people -- you will look at your body and say, "Wait a second. |

Each monkey had access to identical-looking levers, but only one of the levers was actually functional: when pressed, it deactivated the electric circuits. The monkey with access to the working lever was called the "executive" monkey and was harnessed to his companion in such a way that, when he pressed his lever in a timely fashion, both animals were able to avoid shock. |

The Sugar Industry's Extraordinary access to Government
In her provocative book, Food Politics: How the Food Industry Influences Nutrition and Health, Dr. Marion Nestle cites the "most stunning example" of access to upper echelons of the U.S. government, which is revealed in "of all unexpected places, the Starr Report." This official document, which, of course, recounts former President Clinton's dalliance with White House intern Monica Lewinsky, proves that on the afternoon of President's Day holiday, Monday,

Birds raised for meat ("broilers") may be considered "free range" if they have USDA-certified access to the outdoors. Note the word "access." According to Michael Pollan's utterly fascinating book The Omnivore's Dilemma (which should be required reading for anyone interested in where his or her food comes from), free range is an option few chickens actually choose. |

Rights and access to a public education. b. Rights to access to health care, as doctors discharge them as patients. c. Rights to food because often moms on Medicaid are refused food stamps.
These rights—including the right to refuse—must be ensured. When we give government the power to make medical decisions for us—and force us to vaccinate and medicate our children in the name "health" and "policy" and for "die greater good" we, in essence, accept that the state owns our bodies, and, apparently, our children.

| Access to the adverse events reported for any given drug can be accessed and compared over time. For example, from the time Humulin (rDNA human insulin) was introduced in 1983 to the present day, there have been ten times more reports of adverse events caused by human insulin than by animal insulin. In fact, the comparison was done using animal insulin numbers going back to 1965, which statistically shows that there was a 20-to-l ratio of adverse events when comparing human insulin to animal insulin.8

Even animals that do well on grain, such as chickens and pigs, are much healthier when they have access to green plants, and so, it turns out, are their meat and eggs.
For most of our food animals, a diet of grass means much healthier fats (more omega-3s and conjugated linoleic acid, or CLA; fewer omega-6s and saturated fat) in their meat, milk, and eggs, as well as appreciably higher levels of vitamins and antioxidants. Sometimes you can actually see the difference, as when butter is yellow or egg yolks bright orange: What you're seeing is the beta-carotene from fresh green grass. |
| Liebig's elevation of protein dominated nutritionist thinking for decades as public health authorities worked to expand access to and production of the master nutrient (especially in the form of animal protein), with the goal of growing bigger, and therefore (it was assumed) healthier, people. (A high priority for Western governments fighting imperial wars.) To a considerable extent we still have a food system organized around the promotion of protein as the master nutrient. |
| Because the people possessing the new mutation then had access to a terrifically nutritious new food source and as a consequence were able to produce more offspring than the people who lacked it.This development proved much to the advantage of both the milk drinkers and the cows, whose numbers and habitat (and health) greatly improved as a result of this new symbiotic relationship.
Health is, among other things, the product of being in these sorts of relationships in a food chain—a great many such relationships in the case of an omnivorous creature like man. |
| Free range" doesn't necessarily mean the chicken has had access to grass; many egg and broiler producers offer their chickens little more than a dirt yard where nothing grows. Look for the word "pastured." And in the case of beef, keep in mind that all cattle are grass fed until they get to the feedlot; "grass finished" or "100% grass fed" is what you want. For more on the nutritional benefits of pastured food and where to find it, go to eatwild.com.

Isoflavans
Given the fact that the configuration at C-3 would dictate the configuration at C-2 or C-4 in the 3-phenylchroman framework, a series of isoflavans were synthesized, which would then afford stereoselective access to other classes of chiral isoflavonoids (Versteeg et al., 1995, 1998, 1999). The protocol involved the stereoselective oc-benzylation of phenylacetic acid derivatives, subsequent reductive removal of the chiral auxiliary, and cyclization into the isoflavans (Scheme 1.9). |

| Care should be taken that they do not have access to dark chocolate in any form.
What about chocolate and antioxidants, a subject which has been much in the news? Chocolate contains antioxidant flavonoid phenolics, which prevent it from going rancid. In this and certain other plant foods (such as many leafy vegetables, tea, and red wine), these antioxidants help prevent the oxidation of LDS ("bad") cholesterol; when the latter becomes oxidized, it can cause atherosclerosis—gradual blocking of the arteries—by increasing the ability of the blood platelets to form clots. |
| Copan, of course, was a royal city, but even remote hamlets seem to have had access to cacao and chocolate during the Early Classic. At about AD 595 a volcano in north-central El Salvador erupted, covering the village site of Ceren with 4 to 6 meters (13 to 20 feet) of ash and turning it into a New World Pompeii. In one household was a supply of cacao beans, while in a nearby orchard was preserved the still upright trunk of a cacao tree in flower."

| This meant that access to the chocolate drink was now within reach of all. Of course, because of its bitterness, large quantities of sugar had to be added to make the drink palatable, but sugar was not at all expensive since it, too, was produced by the "free" labor of slaves. We will touch on the unsavory subject of slavery and cacao later.

| England's chocolate-lovers of the late 17th century had access to some very detailed, English-language treatises on their favorite beverage. One of the best was The American Physician, published in London in 1672, by William Hughes;74 this included an accurate description of cacao production and cacao preparation for an English audience, based upon the author's own experience in the New World tropics, as well as upon Spanish-language authors. Another was published by Philippe S. Dufour, who must have been one of the many Huguenot refugees who so enriched English life and commerce. |
