I don't have many patients who have run multiple marathons in their lifetimes, but I have hundreds of patients who are under prolonged emotional stress. Financial, work, and personal pressures have so complicated our lives that emotional stress is the most pressing health factor I deal with in my practice. Once you begin to understand the seriousness of oxidative stress, you begin to appreciate the dangerous effects of long-term emotional pressure on your health, and you can begin to counteract it. |
| Excessive Stress
As with exercise, a mild to moderate amount of emotional stress produces only a slight increase in free radicals. Severe emotional stress, however, causes the number of free radicals to rise significantly, creating oxidative stress. Have you ever noticed that when you are under a lot of pressure you frequently become sick? How many times have you known a close friend or family member who has been under tremendous stress for a prolonged period of time only to discover he has developed cancer or had a first heart attack? |

If you find yourself stuck with some issue -- whether it's an emotional issue, a creative issue, or even a relationship issue -- this machine seems to be able to put those energies into motion, freeing them up in a way that can allow you to deal with them and ultimately overcome them. It's not a device that magically makes these issues go away or solves them for you; it simply imparts movement to this energy so that you can do your part in resolving them in a positive way. That can be slightly dramatic if you're dealing with a difficult situation, emotional baggage, or challenging memories. |

If mental and emotional stress can cause elevated levels of cytokine activity, which can lead to more episodes and flare-ups of autoimmune disease, how can we break this self-defeating cycle? If emotional stress can promote disease, can finding a way to be calmer and less stressed by whatever challenges come our way help to improve our health?
THE BIOLOGY OF EMOTION
One of the most fascinating findings about how our thoughts and emotions influence our health springs from a study of 180 nuns ranging in age from 75 to 103. |

Health isn't merely a physical phenomenon. It's emotional, energetic, even spiritual! The physical form is just the simplest and most obvious part of human existence. It is not, however, the place from which disease begins.
If we allow ourselves to get stuck examining only the physical level, and we assign all causes of disease or health to the physical structure of the body, we'll never get to the really powerful wisdom found in the emotional and energetic realms of human experience. |

In one sense, though, it doesn't matter—because we already know that parent-child bonds from birth through early childhood have a profound impact on emotional development. We know that the emotional state of loving, responsive parents gets passed on to their children in a kind of mental methylation— and so does anything that increases a parent's anxiety. Everything from a dissolving marriage to health problems to financial trouble can raise the stress of a new parent and interfere with the child-parent relationship. |

The emotional price for me is high, but the emotional price for patients . . . they are looking to me to get them something they think will save their lives." She told Ricki she would represent her, on the condition that they find published, scientific evidence that high-dose chemo was not experimental but established therapy.
Within a week, Ricki delivered a stack of medical articles that persuaded Philipson they had the evidence they would need. By the early 1990s, doctors around the country who had begun to try Peters's desperate treatment were publishing their results. |

When a linguist analyzed the rhetoric offered in defense of GM crops, he discovered that GM proponents use unscientific, emotional, and irrational arguments to attack critics as unscientific, emotional, and irrational.23
We present below some of the strategies that the industry has used in response to scientific challenges and to books critical of their technology. This may help prepare decision makers to deal with possible responses to the information presented in Genetic Roulette. Based on a decade of experience, here are some of the common reactions we have seen:

Air Pollution
The environment has a tremendous influence on the amount of free radicals our bodies produces. Air pollution is a major cause of oxidative stress in our lungs and in our bodies. |
| Severe emotional stress, however, causes the number of free radicals to rise significantly, creating oxidative stress. Have you ever noticed that when you are under a lot of pressure you frequently become sick? How many times have you known a close friend or family member who has been under tremendous stress for a prolonged period of time only to discover he has developed cancer or had a first heart attack?

He realized that he had some of the first laboratory proof that our bodies unconsciously anticipate and act out our own future emotional states. It also suggested that the 'nervous system is not just "reacting" to a future shock, but is also working out the emotional meaning of it'."
Radin's studies were successfully replicated by his Dutch counterpart, a psychologist called Dick Bierman at the University of Amsterdam.12 Bier-man went on to use this model to determine whether people anticipate good or bad news. |

Stress and breast cancer
Many women claim that their breast cancer diagnosis occurred after a period of emotional turmoil in their lives. emotional stress may work in a way not anticipated. It may actually prevent rather than promote breast cancer. Researchers believe stress raises levels of adrenal hormones and lowers levels of ovarian hormones, resulting in a decreased risk for breast cancer. [British Medical Journal 331: 548, 2005] The preventive effect is modest, but it certainly dispels the idea that stress increases the risk for breast cancer.

Some individuals may be experiencing cyclical patterns; for example, emotional stress leads to binge eating, which leads to further emotional stress, which leads to further binge eating. Strategies for avoiding binge eating should be linked to factors that appear to be leading to binge eating for each individual.
5. Family Influences on Dietary Intake and Eating Practices Research has demonstrated that familial factors contribute to the etiology of obesity via genetic and shared environmental factors [231, 232]. |

This is the stored source of the negative emotional charge many of us have and carry into our adult lives. So, whether we are fearful, pessimistic, confident, happy, or optimistic, our cells take their orders from our thoughts and begin acting accordingly by moving our health toward dis-ease or harmony.
Our outer world is a reflection of the subconscious beliefs that are creating our realities. Conscious health is becoming aware that this is happening and directing the process with intention. |

As a flower essence, marshmallow fosters warmth and emotional openness. For those feeling lonely and isolated and unable to give or receive from others, it eases communication.
Edible Uses
Marshmallow was originally an ingredient in the candy we now know as marshmallow. It is still used in the Middle East to make the sesame confection halva. The leaves and root can be eaten raw or cooked. The flowers are very beautiful and can be sprinkled raw as a garnish on other dishes. |

How much you sweat depends on many factors, including what and how much you eat and drink, what drugs you take, your hormone levels, your physical and emotional states, and even your genes.
PROFUSE PERSPIRATION
Do you find yourself sporting tank tops when others are shivering in turtleneck sweaters? Year-round excessive sweating is the hallmark of hy-perhidrosis, a sometimes hereditary condition that causes a person to produce much more sweat than needed to regulate body temperature. |
| This condition can also be triggered by infections and emotional stress.
SPOTS AND VEINS Small Red Raised Spots
If you start noticing small red or violet, slightly raised, smooth, rounded spots popping up on your torso, you may have Campbell de Morgan spots (aka cherry angiomas). The spots may look like red domes and are usually smaller than 'A inch.
Campbell de Morgan spots are a common benign sign of aging that tend to occur in men and women in their 40s and 50s. Because they often increase with age, they used to be called senile angiomas. |
| Both temperature-regulating and emotional sweat come from the ec-crine glands, which start functioning at birth.
With the exception of the lips, nail beds, and some parts of the vagina and penis, eccrine glands are found all over our bodies. Most are on the palms of our hands, the soles of our feet, under our armpits, and to a lesser degree on our faces.
We have another kind of sweat that comes from the apocrine glands, which only kick in after puberty. |

Symptoms of illness, whether physical or emotional, arise first not in the physical body but as distortions or blocks in the underlying energy and information of the human body-field.
8. It is possible to analyze the holographic human body-field to determine if there are distortions in or blocks to the flow of energy and information that affect the state of our health.
9. Substances and liquids can be encoded or imprinted with information to influence the energetic state of the body-field, and hence of the physical body. The NES Infoceuticals are created according to this principle.
10. |
| Information that influences your core physical and emotional health is affected when the Nerve Driver field is compromised, so the effects of a Nerve Driver weakness tend to be systemic and can affect your overall sense of well-being.
Because the nerves are mostly sheathed by protective cells and tissues, it is a particularly difficult system to energetically detoxify. The Nerve Driver Infoceutical represents a starting point, but achieving the best bioenergetic correction may require the use of an appropriate Integrator Infoceutical. |
| Imagine being able to infuse your bath water with the restorative information of Source energy or the Chill or emotional Stress Release Infoceuticals. NES research, and research by others, such as William Tiller, show that space can be imprinted with information and that information in the environment can persist over time and affect those who enter the space. We have said that you are not separate from your world, that your body, at its deepest, most fundamental quantum core, is in constant interaction with the external environment. |
| Energetic Star 2 Infoceutical is a mixture of Infoceuticals, mostly Drivers, that link to all the major memory systems of the body, including those for emotional Stress Release, Nervous System Driver, Imprinter Driver, Triglycerides (an Infoceutical that was once used by itself but is no longer offered as a stand-alone Infoceutical), and others.
The Energetic Star 2 Infoceutical in general is designed to energize and reestablish processes of energetic recording of data for later recall by the body. |

Low levels of acetylcholine may interfere with concentration and memory and may lead to emotional instability. Drugs used to treat Alzheimer's disease block the action of an enzyme (cholinesterase) that breaks down acetylcholine in the brain.
Type of neurotransmitter. Mildly stimulating.
Nutritional building blocks. The B vitamin choline lies at the core of this neurotransmitter. Acetylcholine is formed in a chemical reaction with the B vitamin pantothenic acid. Eggs and lecithin are excellent sources of choline.
Dopamine
What it does. |
| For most of us, however, stress pushes us out of a zone in which we feel calm, relaxed, satisfied, and happy, and it takes a toll on our physical health and emotional well-being.
Stress places a greater demand on our calming neurotransmitters, burning them up (along with their nutritional building blocks) faster than when we are not stressed. As our calming neurotransmitters decline, our stimulating ones dominate by default, creating an imbalance that can alter how we think, feel, and act. |
