Newsflash

Here are some facts from a brief article in The Compleat Mother (#64, Winter, 2001).  The article is old. The facts are still valid.

    * In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is often mistaken for hunger.
    * 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated.  (It is likely that this applies as well to half the world's population.)
    * Even mild dehydration slows down one's metabolism as much as 3%.

      A Shower Filter Can Bring Joy to Your Life.       You'll Sing Better!   Lowe's Home Depot and your local home center all sell several models.
    * In a University of Washington study, a single glass of water shut down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters.
    * The #1 trigger of daytime fatigue is lack of water.
    * Research indicates that eight to ten glasses of water per day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers.
    * A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen or on a printed page.
    * Drinking five glasses of water per day decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%,  the risk of breast cancer by 75%, and the risk of bladder cancer by 50%.

Another authority says: "Water is also the best medicine, both inside and outside the body. The finest prevention for malaise (after an evening of excess consumption!) is a pint of water before bed."

So what are you waiting for.  Drink up!

Every bit of matter, every shred of energy knows.

Your own body knows. That's why we can say with such confidence, Your Body Gets IT! That is why you are here. Absorb what you can, now, in this moment, and return later when you can soak up more information. The more you feed your mind, the less stress you will have in your body as you learn what you bodymind really needs. We are here to help you on your way. YBGI provides what you need to feel nourished and loved and cared for as you need it.

In her new book Your Body Speaks Your Mind, Deb Shapiro puts forth the concept that by thinking of our body and mind as being separate entities we are doing ourselves a disservice. She points out the very simple fact that every thought we have that we act on, and some we don't are energy. That energy is converted through neuropeptides into chemicals and electical signals throughout the body to respond. And most of it happens on an unconcsious level.
