DISCOMBOBULATED BUT STILL ... DISCOMBOBULATED BUT STILL A BELIEVER IN CAPITALISM AND DEMOCRACY
WITH INTEGRITY AND KINDNESS
I was flumoxed and kerfluffled as I listened to a bunch of ninconpoops talk a bunch of malarkey as they bamboozled their constituents into getting nothing done in the US Senate most of this last week. Amazing how discombobulated things are as they continue to pull their shenanigans in congress.

I like listening to BOOK TV and there were plenty of canoodling and whatnots equally flabergastly cattywompus back in the days of George Washington and Alexander Hamilton as well.

Life is gobsmacked with this persnikety whatchamacallit called Covid-19 as it gets its tenderhooks into moving the world into WWIII.

Will skedaddle before adding more poppycock to this malarkey.

COVID-19 ISOLATION - TIME FOR APPLIED THINKING - GOALS?

thread
THE SUGGESTION IS TO USE T... THE SUGGESTION IS TO USE THE DARUMA TECHNIQUE
FOR A ONE OR TWO YEAR GOAL.
It's comforting to know my new family, of the four of us, are prepared for this natural disaster. We are ready for isolating at home and staying healthy - physically, mentally, spiritually and emotionally.

For starters, our daughter has been ahead of the curve in running her business remotely. She has a successful web design and research business. She helped develop one of the first websites back in 1994 with Warner Brothers for Rosie O'donnell. Her gotomedia employees began working remotely the last few years.

Now with this WWIII type experience, we are getting more practice in "applied planning" as explained by Eckart Tolle. It occurs to us that loosing our electricity is something that has happened many times here on Mercer Island. It's time to get a generator.

Sunday, the girls had a session of practice for entrepreneurship. They sat around the kitchen table and came up with a list of invention possibilities. They are good at brainstorming.

The girls were promised a dog. So it was decided that this isolation time is a good time to train a new puppy. "Suki" (means 'I like you' in Japanese), a Bernedoodle is now part of the Goto household. Suki crate trained the first night or two, but the girls are working on potty training. Our 12-year-old says, "I didn't know it would be so much work." Cleaning up the pee and poop is going well.

The toilet paper roll is lasting longer. The motto: "Three to Pee, four for more!"

Our 10-yr-old is delighted with her designer sleeping/desk area with a Crow's Nest view upstairs. She prides herself in her picture perfect cleaning.

I cancelled my get-away trip to see the English Gardens in May. But it's fun to be able to start making plans and goals for what will be fulfilling for the rest of my new life. For sure, I've solved my loneliness issue.

As an 81-yr-old, it is best I isolate completely. Exercising on my rebounder is going well and I am working to get to 10,000 on my FitBit at least every other day. So far this week, I've made it the last two days in a row!

Time to get up and move! Exercise is my goal. I plan to put in the other eye next year.

"HEALTHY CELL" CAN MEDIATE - GREATEST ECONOMIC BURDEN

thread
We need a savings account of... We need a savings account of POSITIVE health for:
DAILY BUILDING & REPAIR OF OUR PHYSICAL SELF
What part of $95trillion for the cost of Chronic Illnesses do I have to endure? Do I pay my share because I’m old and sick myself? I hope not!!

In his book, FOOD FIX, Dr. Mark Hyman estimates a $95 trillion cost to the USA in the next 35 years. That’s 91% of all the taxes collected. That doesn’t leave any funds for any of Bernie Sander’s free stuff?

So which Chronic Disease should I work to avoid?

Fortunately, I learned 40 years ago that it’s best to give our body the tools (nutrients) it needs. And it’s a good idea to let “Healthy Cell” decide what to do. Our Nutrition and Family Counseling business has served us and our customers well.

I developed “Healthy Cell” as I remembered reading Dr. Seuss’s HORTON HEARS A WHO to our children. It occurred to me the universe Horton discovered on a flower petal was our world. Each of the 70 trillion cells making up each physical human body is a microcosm of the universe. Each of our cells have a nucleus surrounded by an environment.

It’s fun to hear the latest mentors in nutrition like Dr. Hyman suggesting: “How to Save Our Health, Our Economy, Our Communities and Our Planet — One Bite at a time.”

CORONAVIRUS AND OUR IMMUNE SYSTEM

thread
Dr. Richard Brouse Sunnyside... Dr. Richard Brouse
Sunnyside Health Center
MY TAKE ON DR. BROUSE’S Zoom Call RE`COMMENDATIONS

On a zoom call about the Coronavirus, Dr. Brouse suggests we keep our White Blood Cell Lymphocytes above 1500 and Globulin 2.4 to 2.8. The C Reactive Protein score below 0.8.

He warns us that the 1918 Spanish Flu deaths were even greater with the second round. We need to up our Immune Systems and not get complacent over the summer when the numbers decrease. We must be ready for the Fall season when the virus will likely have mutated so the vaccines won’t be as effective.

The main recommendations are warm liquids so our bodies stay hydrated. We don’t want dry upper respiratory passages for the viruses to get stuck. We want the bugs to slip down our digestive track where our intestines know how to deal.

Rest is important to build all our systems for daily repair and replacement of cells when our body isn’t dealing with activities.

The supplement recommendations are:
1. The basics of the multi-vitamins and Protein for all the “alphabet of nutrients” to make up all the words/cells of a healthy body.

Specific suggestions for Immune System builders are:
1. Nutri-Feron - Key in tumor preventing interferon, but also has virus protection components.
2. Vita-C - The glue that holds all our cells together.
3. D3 - Is kind of the bookkeeper and needs the light of the sun to keep track that all the body systems are doing their jobs and get paid.
4. Zinc - to make sure the mucous membranes stay whole
5. Optiflora DL - for the Lacto Bacillus - good bacteria - we need for good digestion, particularly of the B vitamins we need to cope with stress.
6. Garlic - Many studies showing the value of garlic in fighting colds and flus.
7. DR-Defend and Resist - for protecting the lining of our throats and such. The caution is to take a break every 10 days as Elderberry and Echinacea build up and become ineffective.


Dr. Brouse received his Master’s Degree in Biochemistry from Western States College of Colorado in 1970. When in the Army, he was appointed by the US Surgeon General to conduct metabolic research at the Burn Research Center in San Antonio, Texas from 1970 through 1972. He served as Professor of Clinical Nutrition, and an Instructor of Minor Surgery and Proctology at Western States Chiropractic College for many years. He is a Diplomate of the American Chiropractic Board of Clinical Nutrition, a member of the Linus Pauling Institute of Science and Medicine, and of the National Health Federation.

HEALTHY IMMUNE SYSTEM!

HEALTHY CELL CONTINUES TO... HEALTHY CELL CONTINUES TO SERVE US WELL!
By Sam Goto
This is a drawing Dee found searching for drawings of Sam Goto's Cartoon Strips to be put into a book soon.

As always, Sam waS ahead of the game. The message of building the body's natural immune system remains timeless. His choice to not depend on synthetic and pharmaceutical products that come with side effects is benefitting us big time.

CRAZY TIMES!!

thread
JUST DOING THE BEST WE KN... JUST DOING THE BEST WE KNOW HOW
THIS IS A TEST?
In the 1950s our small rural town of 5000 had several deaths from Polio. Two of them were High School classmates. We were all scared. Here we are again.

These are the times for which we were told to eat all that was on our plates and think about all the starving kids in “CHINA” (assuming that was the other side of our world from here in the USA) :-)

I just got through saying: “This is why I have my savings.”

Thank you Sam for talking me into - against my nursing education at the time - doing the Shaklee Business. The girls are not missing on taking their Vitalizer and Protein. AMAZING!!
Kelly ordered a bunch of Germicide wipes and Basic-G. They are taking Vita-C and Defend&Resist without any prompts.

We are socially isolating and I canceled my plans for the May Cruise to view the English Gardens. Girls are home from school. We’re more ready for this, which is really happening; than I am for an earthquake or whatever.

The word is to keep ourselves hydrated so the viruses we encounter will slip down our digestive track where our body will destroy them. My best friend taught me recently to sweeten my tea or coffee with the Shaklee Hydrate - Lemon or Orange Performance. It’s not bad and I’m getting to like it.

My masters in Stress Management Nursing taught us that connecting and sharing is the first choice in reducing Stress. Sitting here in my office, sitting on a exercise ball and trusting this too will pass.

YOU HAVE TO BE HEALTHY TO BE HAPPY

thread
Live a life of energy, meaning... Live a life of energy, meaning and purpose
brain paths can be altered with
choosing healthy changes and persistent practice.
The Coronavirus Issue hot spot is next door in Kirkland, WA. I am self-isolating myself from most of public gatherings. That is not because I am afraid of getting the disease because I have a healthy immune system. But I don’t want to be a carrier or get involved with a quarantine situation.

Forty-three years ago my husband talked me into using my Nursing Degree from the Univ. of WA to start an in-home business with nutrition and family counseling. Sam had a Glucose Tolerance test indicating probable Diabetes. His father had Diabetes. Choosing to treat himself nutritionally, Sam was able to avoid the disease diagnosis the rest of his next 42 years to age 85. His goal was to live well to the end and mine is the same. I changed my focus from "sick" care to health care.

I found this article in one of our old newsletters:

The Longevity Project was 90 years in the making.

*Exercise won’t help you live longer.
*You don’t have to eat your vegetables.
*Stress and worry can be good for you.
*Being too optimistic can kill you.

The study tracks 1,528 Californians for almost their entire lives, started in 1921. Lewis Terman, researcher who started the project, died more than half a century ago. Other researchers have continued and conclude... “Many common health recommendations are ill advised or simply wrong!”

They say, steady daily movement like gardening and walking your dog are more likely to lead to a longer life than endless series of exercise failures.

They found people who worry and suffer some stress - the creative stress that keeps you focused and driven - live longer than the carefree types.

Married men live longer than single or divorced - but divorced women lived nearly as long as married ones. Men - it looks like you need her more than she needs you. I’d say, don’t worry, but a little worry may be good for you! -THE DOUGLAS REPORT, VOLII, NO 7

If I catch the virus, it’s likely to be mild, but that doesn’t mean something won’t happen down the road. Until that time, I choose to live HAPPY AND SHARE by continuing to bring out the best in myself and others!
