JOIN US ON A 12-STAGE JOURNEY TO WELLNESS
This week our journey focuses on FEELING, the 6th of 12 keys to wellness in the Wellness Inventory. We experience feelings and emotions from well before the event of our birth. They can be intense, or frightening, or wonderful. They can also be the most misunderstood, and consequently mistreated, gifts we have as human beings. We judge them, repress them, discount them, drug them, worship them, and run from them. Yet, what a bore to be without them! Life fully lived is life filled with feeling!

Keeping Fit
Many warm-weather exercisers discontinue their training programs when the temperature drops below 40° F. This is unfortunate, because heat-producing physical activity is well-suited for cooler weather conditions. In "Cold Weather Walking and Running" Wayne Westcott, Ph.D. provides very specific guidelines and some unexpected tips that show when approached appropriately, most people can exercise safely and successfully when temperatures are in the 20s and 30s.

What Doctors Don't Tell You
Laser eye surgery was supposed to be the great saviour for all glasses-wearers, but the hype and hope are giving way to growing concerns over the safety and effectiveness of the various techniques. The WDDTY column "Laser Eye Surgery: A Shortsighted Solution" informs consumers about the frequent sudden loss of contrast sensitivity - the ability to distinguish objects in poor light - after surgery. Be informed before taking this drastic step.

Healthy Alternatives
In "Health Risks from Processed Foods and Trans Fats" Mary Enig, Ph.D. is interviewed by Richard A. Passwater, Ph.D. about the harm caused by partially-hydrogenated fats that are present in processed foods. She explains how consumption of trans fatty acids from partially hydrogenated (a process that adds hydrogen to solidify or harden) vegetable fats and oils has many adverse effects in health areas, such as heart disease, cancer, diabetes, immunity, reproduction and lactation, and obesity.

Healthy Child
Coughing is a common symptom and one of the main signs of respiratory tract diseases. Roughly half of those seeking medical care during the winter suffer from inflammatory conditions of the respiratory tract.

Nutrition Tips
Seeds are the potential for new life that are grown as part of a plant and in some way reach the earth to carry on their species. In "Seeds" Elson M. Haas, M.D. selects three seeds (pumpkin, sesame, and sunflower) and shows how these are high-protein foods, with even more protein than grains. He outlines the nutritional value of seeds, plus cooking and storage tips.

Fabulous Functional Foods
Sometimes, it's the simplest things in life that bring the most pleasure. Danish chef Oscar Umahro Cadogan brings us one of them. "Super Oatmeal" takes very little time to make and nourishes body, soul, and the tastebuds. The sesame and flax seed bring extra richness to the oatmeal and provide essential fatty acids with an almost 1 to 1 ratio of omega-3's and omega-6's.

Mind Over Matter
Based upon the wide-spread utilization of guided imagery in the healthcare arena, it should not be surprising that this approach is rapidly gaining acceptance in other areas as well.
