Reverse osmosis is a process of water filtration or purification where molecules of water will be forced using pressure through a membrane of plastic. This is where most of the impurities or contaminants are filtered out and will be directed to a drain while the filtered water will be kept in the holding tank.

This process will be able to remove most of the impurities and contaminants from the water you drink so you have safer water. One reason that reverse osmosis is good for improving your health is because it removes bacteria and pyrogens along with other bad things for your health from the unfiltered water.

Most of the sicknesses that people can get are carried in the water supply that people drink. A sad fact is that most people don't realize that the water they are drinking could be a big factor in the sickness they have so they never change the water they drink.

If the water you drink has not been filtered or purified then you are putting yourself at risk for getting a sickness. The more unclean water you drink the more likely your chances are of getting sick from it.

Most people don't realize that drinking water that is polluted has been linked to causing birth defects and even learning problems in kids. So children will definitely benefit from reverse osmosis to help keep them healthier.

Installing one of these systems into your home is very easy to do for anyone. Once it is properly installed you can expect to have the system remove up to 99% of the water impurities that can be found in unfiltered water.

That alone is worth having your own system because of the fact that it ensures the water your family drinks every day is clean and not going to cause them sicknesses.

Now one last way that these systems will help improve your health is by using a method known as submicron filtration of water. This will reduce the amount of many different things in the water including:

- Cysts

- Pesticides

- Volatile organic chemicals

- Asbestos

- Lead

Now that you know this important information about improving health through reverse osmosis you can see why so many people say it is true. If you are serious about improving your health then you have nothing to lose by getting your own system and everything to gain but especially better health.

In fact, you process sensory data perhaps twice as fast as you can blink your eyes, so mindfulness cognitive therapy needs to be fast doesn't it?

I know you have a twitter account, don't you? Well, if you don't sign up for one, and follow a few folks and you will see what I mean. You will begin to see a stream of their tweets in your twitter account, and most of them will have no more interest for you than a casual greeting offered to someone in the hallway.

Other tweets will make you cheer, and others will leave you surprised, or curious, or angry, or disgusted, ect.

Mindfulness cognitive therapy means paying attention to your thoughts the way you do your twitter stream, except more frequently.

The process is not unlike what you do when you look at the Necker Cube graphic at the top of this page.

If you look at it for a moment, you will see it seem to change, a new face of the box will appear to be closer, and if you move your attention to a different corner, the face closest to you will again move.

I often ask my clients in my domestic violence education classes a couple of questions about the Necker Cube designed to make them more aware.

For example, If I see Box A, (on the Necker Cube) and you see Box B, who is right? The answer is that both of us are right.

The next question would be, When I see Box A, where does Box B go?

The answer is, Into the background.

I think mindfulness cognitive therapy involves paying attention to which square of the Necker Cube I am seeing and switching if need be to the other one.

The down side of all this mindfulness cognitive therapy in a time limited psychoeducation class is that while the clients get it, they are not motivated to do the somewhat tedious process of truly implementing it, so I use some computerized tools to spark interest in mindfulness cognitive therapy.

The first is a biofeedback tool called heart rate variability biofeedback, which is based on recent discoveries about the heart's own nervous system.

The mindfulness idea here is that you can learn to be aware of very subtle changes in time between heart beats, and move into coherence or out of coherence on demand.

So you are learning to pay attention to your physiology and your thinking heart beat by heart beat, and since your heart has enough neurons to learn and make decisions independently of any other brain you have, you can train your heart to respond to your breathing and thinking on any given heart beat.

And there is a cognitive therapy component to heart rate variability biofeedback, which means that you do need to be aware of your thinking, and with the biofeedback, you will see how a change in thoughts immediately impacts your body.

So the computerized heart rate variability training gives you a very positive boost towards the awareness and choice that you need to be really mindful.

Not sure you can pay attention to your thinking or your physiology heart beat by hear beat?

Well, technology has given us some new tools that train memory and attention too, based on the dual n back task.

Yes, in about 19 sessions lasting about 1/2 hour each, you can make some serious improvement in your your memory and attention, as measured by an IQ test.

Nobody even knew that we grew new brain cells daily until about 10-15 years ago, and it was only in the last year or so was there any research on the dual n back task for us to look at.

The program which I think best embodies the dual n back process is the Mind Sparke, which I think qualifies as a very important novel learning experience tool in the emerging brain fitness field.

We can work out our brains these days, and attend to their fitness, and their mindfulness, by attending to the pillars of brain fitness, which are physical exercise, nutrition, sleep, stress management (sounds like mindfulness), and novel learning experience, which is where the computerized brain fitness programs can fit in.

Mindfulness cognitive therapy heart beat by heart beat can be fun to learn and do, and it sure feels good.

We are constantly asking ourselves the perennial questions in Life. Why are we here? What are we here for? What is the meaning of life? Short of answering these questions there is one thing that becomes abundantly clear as you walk through your experience in life. We have the ability to become better, healthier and happier human beings. We are built with the capacity to develop ourselves psychologically, emotionally, physically and spiritually. Once you discover this truth it almost becomes a responsibility to help and develop yourself. So the questions remains - how do I do it. What are the steps that I need to take to become a better, happier and healthier human being.

Ayurveda is the most ancient and comprehensive healing system in the world. Dating back almost 4 to 5 thousand years ago, Ayurveda blossomed as a natural healing system and still remains a holistic healing system that can bring many benefits to our lives. The beauty of Ayurveda can be found in its understanding of the human being as a mind, body, spirit complex. It would seem obvious that we are not just bodies but are actually a combination of mind, body, and spirit but in our health care system we treat ourselves as if we were only a body. We prescribe pharmaceuticals to treat our bodily diseases and we leave it at that. We recommend exercise and a healthy diet - that is where we typically end the health recommendations. In Ayurveda, health goes far beyond that. To begin with, the human being is treated as an individual who is composed of a unique body constitution. This body constitution is determined by what elements are present within the body or to what degree these elements are present within us. Depending on these factors you begin to balance these components to bring harmony and wellness. It is of no surprise then when we remember the words of the western father of medicine: Hippocrates:

"The natural forces within us and the true healers of disease"

From this perspective Ayurveda looks to heal the individual completely. It utilizes a very thorough understanding of Nutrition which determines the optimal foods to eat, the right times to consume food for proper digestion, and the right state of mind to develop when consuming our foods. Furthermore, Ayurveda also heals by incorporating natural herbs and natural herb combinations. A comprehensive understanding of herbs is presented give the ways of consumption, the combination of herbs, the preparation of herbal formula and the times to consume along with the mental framework as well. You learn to work with natural oils. A full spectrum of natural oils is presented through Ayurveda and how to apply these oils in different ways to Marma points which are very similar to meridian points in acupuncture. Ayurveda also has a recommendation in terms of the mental aspects of the human being. The comprehension of mental patterns becomes important, developing presence and consciousness of the moment or of the present moment becomes an important aspect of life for Ayurveda. The capacity to develop the power of attention which is the basis for meditative practices and other spiritual practices that we see run through many traditions. There are no secrets here. We know that many different cultural and religious traditions use rosaries, malas, repetitive prayers, chanting, meditation or dancing to harness the power of attention or to concentrate the being on one single point. This concentration and emptying of thought patterns allows you to concentrate on the present moment of being. This state helps to develop inner peace, tranquility an objective perspective on life and many other benefits. Ayurveda also incorporates training in meditation for well-being and health. Even further, Ayurveda incorporates Pranayam or the science of breath which teaches you how many different techniques to harness the power of breathing more completely. Current studies show that the average American only uses about 26 percent of their lung capacity. Through Ayurvedic principles you are taught how to breathe better and fuller breaths and how to nourish your organs through breathing among many other benefits. Ayurveda also looks to incorporate the science of Yoga which is a complementary science and even has postures designated for each particular body constitution.

In essence, Ayurveda offers a system of natural healing that is very complete both in terms of its treatments and also in its understanding of the human being. It offers a vision of healing for curing disease, for preventative health and ultimately for spiritual liberation. Ayurveda offers timeless principles for healing and well being.
