Hello Everyone,
QUANTUM PROBIOTIC HELPS WITH SLEEP:
"I was wondering if you could tell me why you think the quantum probiotic would help me and my mom sleep better. WE LOVE IT, but are just curious why it would give us such a deep, sound sleep every night! (IT IS AWESOME!!!)"
Yeast and bad bacteria in the body and digestive track cause people to have anxiety, stress, acidic blood, and more. Good bacteria as found in the Quantum Probiotic Complex
not only prevent yeast and bad bacteria, they digest your food properly, especially carbs and sugars (largely responsible for yeast, stress and anxiety), as well as produce healthy B vitamins that lower stress and anxiety, and help digest and assimilate all your nutrients. These are just some of the reasons a good probiotic can help you to sleep well and feel better all day long.
To improve digestion and health on all levels, I highly recommend to all my clients to take plant digestive enzymes at the start of meals, and to take probiotics daily on an empty stomach at least 20 minutes before meals.
Any time people around me are getting colds and flu, I take extra probiotics. Anyone with any type of digestive or elimination problems should be taking probiotics daily. And anyone with allergies should be taking them. Ideally, everyone should take them daily.
Quantum Probiotic is not only of superb quality, it does not need to be refrigerated and is a very small vegetable gel capsule. Even little children can swallow it easily (if under 4 years, just give them Quantum Colostrum Powder
in their food or smoothies).
I also take the Colostrum powder. It has all the natural transfer and immune factors. It is first-rate for immunity and protection, as well as for healthy digestion and intestinal health.
HELP YOUR CHILDREN RECOVER FROM AND PREVENT COLDS, FLU, and INFECTIONS:
According to Dr Marshall, children under 5 best use Bifidus, not acidolphilus. He favors food-based probiotics for children (over five they can use the Quantum Probiotic Complex).
For infections, etc, mix Quantum Colostrum Powder with Quantum Nucleotide Complex
(a food) and put them in Kiefer. That is the very best thing for children's digestive tracks, colds, flu, infections, immune system, etc.
If you need to use antibiotics with children, then you can certainly use Quantum Oleuropein
instead, though the first choice would be the Colostrum and Nucleotides with Kiefer.
If you have children, it would be wise to keep these products on hand. They can shorten a lot of illness and keep your children out of doctors’ offices and off medications. The shelf life of Premier and Quantum products is 2 years printed on the bottle, though really they can last 10 years because they are specially nitrogen packed.
MEDICIAL DOCTORS ARE CATCHING ON HOW GREAT EFT WORKS!!!
Curtis Steele, MD shares his thoughts and experiences using EFT
in a psychiatric practice
Hi Everyone,
A thank you to Curtis Steele, MD from Canada for sharing some of his methods in treating disturbed psychiatric patients. Dr. Steele has a very busy outpatient practice (80 clients per week) and concludes that EFT "is the single most effective tool I've learned in 40 years of being a therapist." He highlights an example with "Wanda" (Schizoaffective
disorder) who he treats OVER THE PHONE and describes his approach, including some useful language.
I spoke with Dr. Steele about this over the phone yesterday and, as a result, I have inserted some augmenting comments within his message below.
Hugs, Gary
________________
By Curtis Steele, MD
I am using EFT daily in my busy practice of outpatient psychiatry (with a focus on psychotherapy). I see, on average, about 80 patients a week, in individual and group treatment, and most weeks I treat 10-20 of them with EFT.
GC COMMENT: I was curious as to why, if EFT was the single most effective tool Dr. Steele had learned in 40 years of being a therapist, did he only treat 10-20 out of 80 patients with EFT. Remember, I don't know the first thing about medical matters so my question came partly from my amazement at what, to me, was a low usage of EFT and partly from my own naiveté in these matters.
The reality is that Dr. Steele works in an environment where many of his patients "just want the meds" and aren't open to anything else. Further, he must also interface with conventional psychiatrists who also resist "unconventional methods."
While I completely understand this, my "Guide Inside"
grits his teeth with the conviction that EFT should be skillfully applied across the board to these deserving (and needful) patients. As readers know, EFT has been responsible for giving many people back their lives.
Further, we have growing evidence that EFT is helpful with psychotic patients and so I sometimes grow impatient with the resistance that tends to limit the free flowing use of these procedures.
Accordingly, if someone parachuted me into a community of disturbed psychiatric patients and asked me to "do my thing", I would immediately seek ways to gain rapport with the resisting parties. Once rapport was gained I would apply EFT to these disadvantaged citizens in one-on-one sessions, in groups and in any other way I could. However, I'm not so naive to think that severely disturbed patients should be placed in my care alone. There are special needs and considerations within this population that require the presence of knowledgeable professionals. Together, though, we could apply EFT to the likely benefit of large percentages of these brothers and sisters of ours.
DR. STEELE CONTINUES: This past week I treated a lady, Wanda (not her real name), diagnosed with Schizoaffective Disorder, who was having a return of psychotic symptoms. She had begun having auditory hallucinations and frightening paranoid ideas. She had been taking taxi cabs (which she couldn't afford) rather than ride the bus because she was convinced a bus driver had stared at her. She was fearful about leaving her apartment because she feared something bad was about to happen to her.
She had previously been stable on moderately high doses of antipsychotic, antidepressant, and mood stabilizing medication. She had been hospitalized repeatedly when she had been at high risk for suicide.
She feared that she would end up in the hospital again . She called me in a state of panic wanting me to do something.
I decided to treat her with EFT over the telephone, although I was uncertain that she could follow the instructions. She was able to do so and very shortly reported feeling better. Her voice was calmer and her thinking was more centered.
The procedure I used over the phone was:
"I suggest we try a form of psychological acupuncture without needles. It will involve tapping on different spots on your body. Can you hold the phone in such a way that you can tap on yourself?"
She said she could. Then I instructed her how to locate the karate chop point, telling her that it is a specific energy spot on the body, and to let me know when she found it. She did. The first setup phrase was "Even though I'm having this panic, I totally and completely accept myself." After tapping for that (on seven points of the EFT protocol, beginning with the eyebrow), we tapped in the same way for two other aspects, "Even though I m afraid to ride the bus . .
." and "Even though I m afraid to go out of my apartment . . ."
The following day, I was urgently called by a nurse specialist in the clinic, who told me that Wanda had come in, very agitated. As I went to see her, she became incoherent as she tried to tell me what was bothering her. I was concerned that the EFT hadn't helped at all. However, she affirmed that the telephone EFT had been helpful, and was eager to do it with me in the office.
Initially she couldn't tell me what was troubling her.
I've learned to use EFT as an investigative tool when someone can't verbally identify the problem, and I do a setup of: "Even though I can't say what s bothering me, I totally and completely accept myself", followed by the reminder phrase of "these feelings" I then find that the patient relaxes sufficiently to begin to identify specific aspects of the problem, which I treat with subsequent rounds of EFT. This was the case with Wanda, and as she relaxed she began to identify issues of concern. We did several rounds of tapping for those aspects, and she visibly relaxed more. I then returned to my busy patient schedule.
GC COMMENT: Using EFT as an "investigative tool" in this way is one EFT's seldom used features. When a client cannot identify the problem, just tapping on this inability will often bring to the surface some important core issues/memories.
DR. STEELE CONTINUES: The nurse told me later that Wanda was so relaxed that she almost went to sleep after I left. She had never seen anything like that, and expressed a wish to learn the technique, which I taught her, to our mutual satisfaction.
I estimate that my success rate is about 95% at this time. I think this is due to a carefully precise setup, and the use of intuitive psychotherapy skills that I have learned over time. EFT works well for beginners and helps experienced therapists become even better.
GC COMMENT: Reports of high success rates like this require some perspective and definition. In both my experience and that of Dr. Steele's, success does not necessarily mean "complete resolution of a problem forever". While complete resolutions are certainly possible (and often performed) there is often an "art of delivery" necessary to bring them about. However, if we define success as "anywhere from noticeable improvement to complete cessation of the problem" then claims of high success rates by skilled practitioners have merit.
DR. STEELE CONTINUES: As to the setup, I take time to carefully explain that this is "a form of psychological acupuncture (without needles)" and to enlist the patient's full cooperation in doing the procedure. I tell them that this is the single most effective tool I've learned in 40 years of being a therapist. If they express skepticism, I compliment them on their caution, and tell them that they don t have to believe in this for it to work, but I do need their full cooperation. Then if they're not willing, I respect their choice rather than try to push them.
My setup is repeated three times: "Even though I have (this problem) I deeply and completely accept myself,"
while tapping on the karate chop point. I then tap with them using the first 7 points (I rarely find the need to use more). If they have difficulty following instructions I get their permission to tap on them. I watch for physical signs of relief, or release of affect, during the tapping, and then intuitively follow from these to related aspects. I ordinarily don t get an initial 0-10 intensity rating, but instead ask after a positive response, "Let's say that your previous distress was a 10 on a 0-10 scale; what is it now?"
