Insomnia, which is the inability to sleep satisfactorily or to have any sleep at all, is one of the most common sleep disorders. It is characterized by restlessness, sleep interruptions, decreased sleeping time than the usual, or sometimes complete wakefulness. Aside from the annoyance that insomnia can cause to its sufferers, this sleep disorder causes those afflicted to lose enthusiasm and energy, acquire memory and concentration problems, feel lethargic, frustrated, and of course sleepy.

Stories of friends and family members unable to enjoy certain foods, participate in activities, or participate in particular environments are all too common. In fact, 50 million Americans are estimated to have allergies. This means that a great number of people live with certain lifestyle 'limitations' by what we've come to know as an allergy, which is what an adverse reaction by the immune system to any foreign substance is called. There is no clear apparent medical reason why people contract allergies, but one thing remains clear: the condition is indiscriminate in its coverage and may affect us regardless of age, gender, or race. Commonly, however, the allergy manifests in our infancy or childhood, although some symptoms may appear at any age or may reappear after any period of apparent inactivity. Most allergies are largely insignificant and may be dealt with by simple lifestyle choices; however, there is a possibility of them either adversely affecting our daily life, or perhaps life-threatening conditions.

How does self esteem work? Tracy has been in and out of relationships for so long that she is beginning to think that no one is out there for her.  No matter how she tried, and no matter what kind of guy she goes steady with, it always ends up with a big bang, and the door is usually slammed at her end. She has blamed herself for her failed relationships because she was so kind or nosy, or forgiving, selfless, clingy.  You name it; every single bad thing that happened to the relationship was her fault.   Up to now, she could not help but wonder what went wrong.  She has done everything to make it work but nothing she does seems to make a difference and she still hasn’t found “Mr. Right.” At first glance, there is really nothing wrong with Tracy, nor with the men in her lives.  But as you probe into their day to day activities, you realize that Tracy looks okay on the outside, but has very low regard for herself on the inside.  She seems like an ordinary girl next door but she is actually suffering from what we call low self esteem.

These standards will sometimes change according to the type of fitness trainer certification you're applying for, as well as the standards set by the ruling body of the fitness organization from which you're applying for certification. A good rule of thumb is to make inquiries before applying for a certification test, asking what requirements the organization may have. By and large, however, here are some of the requirements that are common to most, if not all, fitness organizations for certification. Age Limit and Diploma - most organizations will set the age limit for their certified trainers at around 18 or 21, and will require, at the least, a high school degree. Not every group requires college degrees, though some of the stricter ones require college degrees in sports sciences even for basic fitness trainer positions. If you're applying for advanced trainer courses though, such college degrees are a hard prerequisite.

Can you tell us how long you have been involved in holistic healing? A- Since about 1961, I had just finished what they call my right of passage, in my tribe on my 12th birthday that is when I made my declaration to my elders that I would accept the passing of the mantle so to speak of the family Shaman from my Great Uncle Jacob to me. Q- What does that entail or are you allowed to say? A- Well I am here to demystify the mystical and they’re a lot of various practices and modalities around the world that have a hallmark of your either coming into womanhood or manhood and that is usually your 12th birthday. The morning of my birthday my uncle Jake showed up at like 7 in the morning and we started walking and we didn’t stop walking till that night.  This is a feat considering I grew up in Pittsburgh and we just started walking and eventually wound up heading over the bridge that connected you to downtown.  Then through downtown off over another bridge and up into the mountains which were then populated but it was like the suburbs.  We walked through there and back through another set of bridges back into town, crossed town and back into the mountains so to speak in the area in which we were living and then back down to the house where everyone was waiting with birthday cake and all this other stuff.
