I received an email a while back from a man who had decided to be a little bit more active in his health, here’s his story:
“I was diagnosed with PD approximately four years ago and of course the symptoms were devastating on my law practice and my personal life. Depression and an apathetic life was a great part of the last 4 years when somehow I was inspired to start walking and praying. Although my specific prayer request never came to fruition something much greater did, over a period of time I noticed a measure of peace and calmness that had previously eluded me most of my life.
I came up with the idea to do a documentary on Parkinson’s Disease and committed myself to at least several hours of study daily over the last 9 months. During the course of my research and sifting through all of the so called miracle cures I found that alternative medicine was a viable approach. Having always been somewhat of a skeptic I followed some of the suggestions with regard to life style changes and common sense teachings. I changed my diet that eliminated refined and manufactured foods, started exercising which was primarily walking and yoga. I reduced my stress level through meditation and detoxed my body with natural supplements. I am not symptom free but am so much better as almost all are shocked in the
difference in my disposition, a clearer mind and much better appearance.”
I am continually impressed with the emails I receive about stories of those who work day in and day out in improving their conditions. There are so many ways out there to do this, but remember, the core of good health is eating healthy, exercising, and good sleep. If these things are all followed then you’ll always feel better then if you didn’t follow these guidelines. These healthy practices may not be able to ward off of Parkinson’s disease or other diseases but they may help change your disposition, clear your mind, and give you a much better appearance.
