Originally posted by whalenTell that very thing to your doctor- but try to use vegetables and exercise instead of pills - I use only minimum meds, I think aspirin is critical, since I do believe that inflammation is the key.
Quit Smoking
go to the gym and do cardio
Eat more Fiber, fruit and vegetables
Reduce most sugar
Take a baby aspirin
No freakin Pizza and donuts
Drink a beer everyday
Most important - Know your Blood pressure and Cholesterol - If it's off, do what ever it takes to get it right again.
For me, no smokes, no Donuts, Less bacon, no oily cheese.
The funny thing is that I have only had to change about 5% of my diet. I went through cardio rehab and I just gave in and do whatever they told me to do.
I eat fresh vegetables and salad, only Healthy cereal everyday, keep meat portions small and trim it. I use only Almond milk. Whole grains and hummus. I eat almonds every day and exercise everyday. I am about to eat my lunch, fresh baked whole wheat bread and goat cheese.
I guess the problem as always is food. I just love delicious food, namely things with cheese and butter etc. I frankly can't see me giving it up. I need to lose weight though, and I need to eat more vegetables. I started gardening this year in hopes that I would be more inclined to eat the vegetables if I grew them myself. I just harvested my first cucumbers and the tomatoes are coming in a couple of weeks. Gonna hopefully be eating a lot more veggies in the future. I try to drink soy milk or rice milk or sometimes almond milk, but I mainly only drink water. I already eat no sugar but my blood sugar is a little high from all the carbs. I don't eat sweets, don't drink anything but water etc, but I guess the carbs are what does it for me. I only drink on Friday and Saturday, and I only have two beers. I was really hoping that stopping my daily drinking would affect my weight, but sadly it has not. Even cutting my beers down from like 4 a night to only 4 per weekend hasn't had any effect.
I just need to exercise more and eat more vegetables, maybe then i'll feel better and lose some weight. I don't have time for the gym (or the desire), but I know I should probably do that too. Thanks for the advice Whalen.

I used to stay at the house of a friend of the family. It was a half way house between my own and a weekend club I used to go to. We had a huge row one day and I never went back. The man was in his 60s and heavily disfigured from an accident.
One night I had a very vivid dream about him not long after this. He appeared as a younger version of himself, dressed in his best suit with all his disfigurement gone. I felt extraordinarily at ease.
In the dream we were on a bus travelling into Belfast. We were talking about nothing in particular and then he told me he was dead. He told me he had to get off the bus and I had to continue my journey.
The next day my grandfather rang to tell me he died of a heart attack.

Originally posted by hedersI have the same fear, more present sometimes and none others. The most important thing I think is to avoid stress which is done by living in the now moment, and recognizing it as the true reality and the only thing there really is. Judging from your spiritual writings, it sounds like you're familiar with the concept though. Also, by living fully in the moment, as your true self, the ego starts to die, which relieves a lot of stress and negativity from the body. Being happy and present makes the immune system stronger and, proven scientifically; reduces diseases and illnesses dramatically. Exercising regularly, quitting smoking and eating good food (lots of vegetables and fruit) is also really good. Worrying about things like that is really not worth it, because the worrying itself is the problem. All we can do is living in the best way possible, and life will take care of us.
I follow the theory that if you allow life to flow, and be as it is (not as in doing nothing, but taking the actions needed and doing what is necessary without getting caught in the story of it) - you will be healthy. i.e: if you trust life - life trusts you.
Yah I do my best to live in the moment, realizing that all things are transient in nature and that all we truly have is the current moment (very Buddhist, eh?), but my anxiety really makes it difficult. I don't know why I have such anxiety as I don't have anything to be anxious about, but I constantly think I am having a heart attack or a stroke, and it just builds up this fear of dying from one of those two things. I don't know why i'm afraid of those things, i'm 26 and otherwise healthy, heart is healthy etc. I guess I just need to relax more.
Another thing i've had lately is that I don't experience happiness, or much emotion at all for that matter. This kind of bothers me. Like there was a time in my life where if the wife ordered a pizza and I had some beer, and a new video game just came out or something, I would be excited and happy. I no longer have these feelings of excitement or happiness really. I mean i'm not depressed about anything, I just don't feel happy or excited by anything, even things that used to excite me in the past. It's like I have no emotions lately and I just don't know why. It has been a slow process over thee years. I can watch someone get shot right in front of me and not really care either way, I can watch someone OD and not care either way, I can watch an emotional movie but not really get into it or care about the characters etc, I just odn't have emotion anymore and it's really starting to worry me. I don't know what I need to do to get back on track.

Originally posted by sgreger1It's funny because that was always my outlook on life. That we are here for, if nothing else, to enjoy ourselves and experience the wide range of emotions and experiences that life has to offer. Love, hate, laugh, cry, pleasure, pain, I wanted to experience it all. I think I just lived like that for too many years and burned myself out. I wanted to experience the good, and the bad, and got a healthy dose of both. But now that I am settled down with wife and kids I guess something has changed in me (probably for the best, I was ****ing crazy as a youth). I guess I just feel like I have already tried everything, and am looking for my next adventure, the next thing to experience. Maybe death is it, maybe there is something that comes first, who knows.
