Deep brain stimulation is one of the ways that anyone can use to help with many emotional problems. The psychology behind emotional scarring and depression is that the wound lies not within the physical dimension within the body, but it is reproduced within specific parts of the mind. These are where the centres of emotion, the centres of memory and subconscious lie - working together like a VCR set to loop. This is an extreme example of how the normal functions of the conscious mind and the functions of the preconscious can be disturbed to such an extent. Usually, our physical awareness is able to filter all the negative emotions and rationale thought and critical thinking is able to diffuse these feelings into broken down aspects of thought, which can be subjected to critical thought.
But there is always the problem of emotion, and emotion comes in when there is a certain amount of trauma involved. Prolonged or serious bouts of depression is caused when someone is subjected to a traumatic even or experience, which is so catastrophic that it penetrates the defences of the conscious mind, erupts the emotional stimulus within the body and implants the image and all the sharp emotions within the subconscious mind. When the subconscious mind gets such a direct and heavy bombardment of such stimuli, it will usually stick and stay for a long time. Our normal mechanisms of memory will replay the event and thus create the same emotional pain that leads to a constant state of depression. Depression is really a very serious problem and it can cause much physical deterioration.
With depression, a subject can lose interest in his or her appearance and would also refuse to eat or even drink water. Sleep doesn't come easily and malnutrition can even set in. Some cases of depression can lead to violent acts of murder and suicide, or subjects can simply just waste away with no medical explanation. The power of depression has the 'killing effect' on the body that so many doctors have recognised. Immune-response systems decrease rapidly and the bodies own natural defences simply disappear or lose their effectiveness because of the patients will to not live. While drug and therapy may help, the effects are not guaranteed and they may only bring about dangerous side effects or even overdose.
Depression will eventually lead to despair. The root of the problem lies in the subconscious and the new methods of battling depression that doctors and psychologists have been using is brain wave entrainment. What they do is they use entrainment technology, which is in essence evoking the brain into specific states so that they can either evoke feelings or happiness or even use the power of inserting positive messages into the subconscious that will eventually remove the images and feelings of depression.
The success of this technology is well documented, with reports from the U.S.A and Japan of the success of technology like autogenics, biofeedback and binaural beats in the application of the removal of mental disturbances and emotional issue problems like deep anxiety or depression. Even if you are suffering from mild depression that you cannot get rid of, this is a great way for you to use the deep brain stimulation effects of brainwave entrainment to reset yourself and have a much better outlook in life.

A common problem of pregnant women after giving birth is their weight. Usually, after giving birth, women would double the weight she had before she got pregnant.

How to Relieve Upper Back Pain
The old-fashioned way to exercise to relieve pain and muscle tension just doesn't work. When our upper back muscles hurt, we How to Relieve Upper Back Pain
The old-fashioned way to exercise to relieve pain and muscle tension just doesn't work. When often try stretching to loosen up. But the pain returns, doesn't it?
Work, everyday activities, and lifestyles are harder than ever on back muscles. Our activity levels are diminished. Our jobs require sitting for long periods of time, adding to our inactivity. These habits restrict movement, circulation, and metabolism.
Because of the extremely inactive nature of our lifestyles, typical old-fashioned stretches are not effective enough to loosen tight muscles.
Understanding posture, pain and muscle balance.
To know how to use exercise effectively for pain relief, you must understand posture, and how pain arises from muscles out of balance.
Posture is compromised by sedentary jobs, or jobs that put our bodies in awkward positions. Some muscles get overworked, while others get underworked. This creates muscle imbalance and poor posture.
Pain will arise when a muscle imbalance develops. In order to address the imbalance and relieve pain, treatments (like exercise) need to focus both on the overworked muscles and the underworked muscles.
When you feel pain or tension in upper back muscles, you need to also treat the muscles on the front-side of the body. Most commonly, the muscles on the front are tight from being overworked, and the upper back muscles are being overstretched and underworked. When the chest and arms are working hard, the upper back muscles are strained and pulled taut.
Relieving upper back muscles with new exercise rules.
In order to prevent and relieve muscle pain due to postural imbalance, you'll need to apply some new exercise principles.
1) Don't stretch the pain away- The old-fashioned way to relieve tension is to stretch the pain away. This is partly why yoga has become so popular in recent years.
For stretching to be effective, we must stretch the overworked muscles. When posture is compromised, causing tension to be felt in the upper back, then we need to be especially conscious to stretch the muscles of the front-side of the body.
2) Getting stronger- Back muscles often feel painful because they are overstretched, or weak. Therefore, exercises to strengthen the upper back muscles often provide instant relief.
3) Move along- Cardio exercise brings fresh blood and oxygen to restricted areas. Cardio exercise increases movement, decreases pain, and naturally stimulates your body's own painkillers. It benefits both the underworked and overworked muscles, and every cell in the body.
Apply these three fresh principles. Abandon outdated ideas that aren't helping you.
You can prevent aches and pains, and relieve tension, with a simple shift in your exercise program.

The first step is to learn how to cure a yeast infection.
But to do that, it's best to understand what causes a yeast infection. The list is basically: antibiotics, because they kill the healthy bacteria that keep yeast from overgrowing, allergies, hormonal imbalances, diets with too much sugar, coffee, and dairy products, and lastly, tight clothing that allows for the warm and wet atmosphere that yeast needs to grow.
That's the basic low down of what typically causes thrush, but how to cure a yeast infection is fortunately just as simple and surprising the answer is all natural. Of course, you can use drug based medications such as anti-fungals to kill the overgrowing yeast microbes. This used to be the only solution but if you want to know how to cure a yeast infection and keep it cured then no medicine will help. The technology hasn't been developed because the right way to cure a yeast infection involves a combination of:
Effective (and common)natural ingredients that will alleviate the symptoms of yeast infection within twelve hours
And a few simple adjustments to your lifestyle. Period.No pill can provide these things which is why so many people suffer from chronic yeast infection. The solution begins with learning how to cure yeast infection so you will get a healthy yeast balance back.

YEAST INFECTION
Signs You Might Have a Yeast Infection and What to Do
Introduction
The thing to remember is that the signs below are also symptoms of other ailments, so it is recommended that you should always go to your doctor first. A simple test will be able to confirm whether you have a yeast infection or not.
So what are the main signs you might have yeast infection? Go through the following lists and see if you recognize any of them in yourself. The last list, "other signs" may be a surprise to you!
Vaginal Yeast Infection
Pain during intercourse
Inability to have intercourse
Inflammation / itching of vagina
Vaginal odor
White vaginal discharge
Pain when urinating
Menstrual pain
Penile Yeast Infection
Pain during intercourse
Inability to have intercourse / impotence
Head of penis is inflamed & can itch like crazy
Red spots / blisters on the head
Unusual discharge
Pain when urinating
Dry / cracked skin
Signs of an Oral Yeast Infection
White / yellowish raised spots on tongue and mucous membranes
Pale pink spots on the lips (usually denture wearers)
Throat pain and difficulty swallowing
Slight uncomfortable / burning sensation in mouth and throat
Bad breath
Other Signs You Might Have Yeast Infection
There are other signs you should look out for. And these are symptoms I guess you would not have thought would be linked to yeast infection, but they can be. These are just the main ones: acne, skin lesions, chronic rash, depression, mood swings, memory loss, fatigue, irritability, aching or swelling joints, etc.
Mainstream Treatment
Treatment normally consists of creams applied locally to the infected area, and, sometimes pills taken with water. For oral infections you are normally given pastilles to suck or a liquid medication that you 'swish' around your mouth and then swallow. All these are available by prescription or over-the-counter.
These 'drug-based' remedies can be very effective at the start. But of the 75% of women who will suffer a yeast infection at least once in their lifetime, very many women will suffer recurring yeast infections; yeast infections that go and keep coming back, making their lives absolutely miserable.
It is believed that one of the reasons this happens is because the treatment described above really only treats the 'symptoms' not the root cause of the infection, and, the root cause of the infection -- a fungus called Candida Albicans -- can build up a resistance to the drugs being used, so that the drugs eventually become ineffective.
Alternative Treatment
Many people for very different reasons (e.g. being pregnant, bad side-effects from drugs, recurring yeast infections, etc.) have turned to alternative remedies. And, since the reason for looking at alternatives is to do with the negative aspects of mainstream drug-based treatments, they have sought out and found 'natural' remedies.
Thousands of people who used to suffer, as you are suffering right now, have at last discovered a natural approach that has completely cured them, and, now they are living their lives to the full again

THE BENEFIT OF CALCIUM TO THE BODY
1. To the immune system in the body, the immune system help fight diseases that enter the body but it is the calcium ions in the body that gives the alarm about the invasion, it also propel the immune cells to act and fight out this foreign invader from the body. Even if your immune system is very strong and you lack calcium in your body, the disease will knock you down because your immune system will not sight without the calcium ions giving order.
2. To the heart: some of hypertension cases are cause by lack of calcium in the body, for the cardiac muscles to contact and expand it needs energy and this can only be made possible when there is enough calcium in the body so lack of calcium can lead to so many diseases in the body like hypertension, heart diseases and expert say that with calcium ions introduce into the weakened cardiac muscle the heart gradually regains power to function well again.
CALCIUM AND PREGANCE
When a woman is pregnant the fetus need a lot of calcium to be formed and all these calcium comes from the mother as she supply calcium to the fetus that is in the forming stage, the mother need to increase her calcium in take or she will become calcium deficiency and this may result to low blood calcium content, which can cause hypertension, birthing difficulty, malformed baby, and pelvic deformity. So if you are a pregnant woman or your wife is pregnant, please source for calcium.
There are many other ways calcium help the human body like in your skeletal muscles, without the calcium ion the contraction and expansion of the skeletal muscle would have been impossible it also help fight stress and help menopausal women as they experience a decrease functioning of the ovaries and a decrease in estrogen.
Now that you know the importance of calcium to the body I will advice you increase your calcium intake.
ZINIC AND THE BODY
Zinc has so many important functions and potential uses.
ZINC AND THE MIMUNE SYSTEM:
Zinc can be use to treat lowered immunity zinc has the ability to increase T lymphocyte production and enhance other white blood cells function. When you increase your intake of foods that contain zinc your immune system will made stronger.
Zinc and Fertility: Zinc is the next important mineral for fertility it is found in high concentration in semen it is essential in the function of reproductive organs. Let your intake of zinc be moderate for expert say it has been shown to inhibit production of prolactin a hormone which suppresses ovulation in women and causes sexual dysfunction in both men and women.
Zinc and the Heart, zinc has on influence on our sense of taste which in turn affect our appetite, saliva contains some gestation that act as a mediator affecting taste and appetite so when you are zinc deficiencies it affect your salt intake as your sense of taste have been alter and when you now consume too much salt you are very close to disease like hypertension and other heart diseases. So to avoid such diseases increase your intake of foods that contain zinc.
ZINC AND ENZYMES
In the body there are over 200 kinds of enzymes and their existence dependant on the presence of zinc. It acts as a catalytic and conformational regularly agent for the activities of the enzymes and also takes part directly in the synthesis of nucleic acid and protein in cell mitosis also in growth and regeneration.
Now that you know the importance of zinc I will advice you should not wait till you are zinc deficient before you start to increase your daily intake of food that contain zinc.

GET RID OF THAT HYPERTENSION
GET RID OF THAT HYPERTENSION, YOU CAN.
High blood pressure or hypertension is known as the silent killer because most people don’t know they have it and they can die without warning. It was listed as a primary or contributing cause of deaths in the United States. One in five Americans has hypertension or high blood pressure. This is very alarming as this disease is a traitor that can rob you of your life anytime without warning. You need to know how to get rid of hypertension before anything serious could happen to you.
To get rid of hypertension you should know the categories of blood pressure readings. Hypertension is a medical condition when the blood pressure is elevated or the blood travel through your arteries at a higher pressure than normal. The normal blood pressure is 120/80 mm Hg or lower, when your blood pressure is 140/90 mm Hg or higher you have a hypertension. Any blood pressure reading in between 120/80 mm Hg and 139/89 mm Hg is a pre-hypertension stage. However, in people with diabetes and with kidney disease a blood pressure of 130/80 mm Hg or higher is already considered a high blood pressure or hypertension.
Can you tell if you have hypertension? Although some people experience drowsiness, headaches and blurred vision, the general population with hypertension has no symptoms and not aware that they have hypertension. This is the reason why most strokes due to hypertension have no signs before it occurred. It is important that you monitor you blood pressure regularly especially if you have hypertension in the past. To get rid of hypertension you should check your blood pressure to prevent stokes. Hypertension can damage your blood vessels causing strokes, heart attack and kidney failure.
There are preventive measures that you can do to get rid of hypertension and mostly it has something to do with your lifestyle. There are modifications in your lifestyle that you need to do to lower your blood pressure or get rid of hypertension. Some of these changes include:
Weight Loss. Being overweight is not encouraged if you have hypertension.
For smokers, you have to stop smoking as this will increase your risk of other diseases brought by hypertension like heart attack and strokes.
Watch what you eat to get rid of hypertension. Reduce your salt intake. Salt or sodium aggravates your hypertension.
Fruits and vegetables high in potassium are recommended to lower blood pressure.
Have a regular exercise this will lower blood pressure and improves blood flow.
Limit or avoid alcoholic drinks. If you cannot avoid it limit it to 1-2 drinks a day.
Avoid stress and try to relax, there’s nothing better than a stress free life.
