(E book-daniel johnson) the complete guide to natural healing of varicocele 4...Babak Nozari
This document is an introduction to Daniel Johnson's guide on natural treatment of varicocele. It discusses that natural treatment and surgery are the only options for varicocele treatment. It provides an overview of how natural treatments work by addressing lifestyle factors and using corrective therapy. The document also discusses what a varicocele is, how it affects the body, and the major causes of varicocele development, highlighting that increased blood pressure and impaired blood flow are key contributing factors rather than genetically faulty valves.
Regular exercise is associated with improved mood and mental health benefits like better focus, deeper sleep, and enhanced memory. A recent study found that neurotransmitter levels of glutamate and GABA increased more in the brains of participants who did aerobic exercise compared to a non-exercising control group, especially in areas related to heart rate and emotion. The amounts of these neurotransmitters decreased over time but were still higher in those who exercised more weekly. Other everyday factors that can impact mental health include coffee consumption, gender differences in mental health issues, time spent outdoors, social media use, diet, and nutrition.

While stress itself is not harmful, the way people deal with stress can impact their health and diabetes management.

Chinese medicine views the body as a system where energy (qi) flows through meridians and can become blocked or imbalanced, resulting in illness. Acupuncture aims to unblock qi by inserting thin needles into acupoints along meridians to restore balance and encourage healing. It is a holistic approach that sees all organs as interconnected and influencing each other. During treatment, acupuncturists may use various needle techniques on specific points to target the root cause based on Chinese medicine theory and diagnosis. The goal is to prompt the body's natural self-healing abilities through subtle energetic effects rather than just addressing physical symptoms.

Females are underrepresented in law enforcement careers worldwide due to it traditionally being a male-dominated field. However, females bring advantages to policing such as an ability to relate to victims of crimes like domestic violence and to investigate situations in conservative cultures where males cannot interact with females. While families and cultures often discourage females from pursuing law enforcement, their representation has been increasing as attitudes change and females gain the confidence and support to enter this career path. With recruitment efforts and females serving as role models, their numbers in policing are expected to continue rising globally.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise boosts blood flow and levels of neurotransmitters and endorphins which elevate and stabilize mood.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.

ife has a habit of throwing us curve balls.
When my wife was diagnosed with
diabetes, she knew she would have
to change some of her behaviors if
she hoped to stay healthy and “be there” for us.
I became her partner and coach in this journey.
Together, we turned the diabetes “curve ball”
into an opportunity to learn, grow, and deepen
our lives in many ways. As human beings, we
have that ability — that choice. The 7
Habits of Highly Effective People ®
with Diabetes will help you
recognize the power you
already have to take charge
of diabetes and your life.
These habits are: Be
Proactive; Begin with the
End in Mind; Put First Things
First; Think Win-Win; Seek First to
Understand, Then to Be Understood; Synergize;
and Sharpen the Saw. Applied to the AADE7™
Self-Care Behaviors, these habits will help you
become more effective in managing diabetes on
your own, and with others: your medical team,
family and friends. I hope these pages will help
you see diabetes not as a setback, but a journey
of self-discovery. I invite you to read on and
discover all the powers you have to turn this
change into a positive force — in your own life,
and the lives of those you cherish.
— Stephen R. Covey

If you or a loved one has been diagnosed
with diabetes, you are probably feeling a
mix of emotions. Fear, anger, and discour-
agement are all common reactions. You did not ask for
this. But you can choose to live a healthy, productive life
with diabetes. The American Association of Diabetes
Educators (AADE) is dedicated to helping you do just
that with the “AADE7™,” a framework of seven self-care
behaviors that will help you gain confidence and control
over diabetes. These behaviors are: Healthy Eating,
Being Active, Monitoring, Taking Medication, Problem
Solving, Healthy Coping, and Reducing Risks.
In his book The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People ®,
Dr. Stephen R. Covey offers a strategy for empowering
your life based on timeless, self-evident principles
of growth and effectiveness. Bayer Diabetes Care has
brought together AADE and Stephen Covey to com-
bine his “Habits” with the “AADE7™,” resulting in a
dynamic, results-focused guide to help you or someone
you care for better manage life with diabetes.
At the end of the guide, The 7 Habits of Highly
Effective People ® with Diabetes, you will find an Action
Plan and other resources. Their purpose is to help
you set and meet easy goals for managing diabetes,
one goal at a time. We hope the following pages will
inspire you to take charge of diabetes and make it
part of a positive and rewarding lifestyle.

With the human gifts of imagination and
free will, we have the power to choose our
response to any situation. Stop for a moment to
consider what that means. We are free to be the
creative force of our own lives. That’s what Being
Proactive means: choosing your actions and taking
responsibility for them. Many things in life are
beyond our control — the weather, for instance,
or what others do and say. But how we respond
to those things is always within our control. You
can control diabetes by responding to it proactively.
Try reading the list of the 7 self-care behaviors
using proactive language: “I choose to eat
healthfully” instead of “I have to eat healthfully.”
“I choose to be active.” “I choose to monitor my
blood glucose.” As you begin to think proactively,
notice your confidence starting to grow. You are
making decisions that will make things happen.
You are taking charge of diabetes and your future.
It’s your choice!

Everything you do in life is created twice: first
in the mind, then in reality. An architect imagines
the finished building before setting out to create it.
Imagine your future with diabetes. You might see
yourself as a self-care expert, able to handle any
problem or situation with confidence. You might
even imagine a life that is healthier, more secure,
more empowered than ever. That’s what Beginning
with the End in Mind is
all about: creating a
vision for your life,
based on what is most
important to you —
your deepest values.
Take a few moments
to identify them.
Making choices in
harmony with those
values will guide your
vision to reality. Now
imagine a successful life with diabetes. Use the
7 self-care behaviors as a “road map,” each behavior
a milestone toward your destination. Choose one
behavior and set a small goal. For “Being Active,”
it might be, I will take a 15-minute walk every day. For
Healthy Eating, I will switch from whole milk to skim
milk. For “Monitoring,” I will stay on top of my blood
glucose measures as recommended by my medical team.
Imagine what you are capable of — then go for it!

You have a vision of where you want your
life to go. You have the proactive power to make
the choices that will lead you there. Now you’re
ready to do it — to take charge of your life with
diabetes. But with so many activities filling up
your day, how will you find time to monitor blood
glucose? Or exercise? Or eat healthy foods? If
you have identified your deepest values — those
things that give your life meaning and richness —
the answer will come naturally. Putting first
things first simply means prioritizing your tasks
according to what is truly important. Start by
asking yourself, What one thing could I do on a
regular basis that would make a big positive difference
in my life? Now read down the list of the 7 self-care
behaviors. Would you agree that any one of these
behaviors would improve your life in a big way?
Choose the behavior you find the hardest or most
frightening, and make it your first priority. Is it
taking medication? Monitoring?
Cutting out junk food? If you
keep your vision and your
values firmly in mind,
the challenge will seem
easier. Putting first things
first is a good way to
affirm the things — and
the people — that matter
the most in your life.

We live our lives with
other people: families, social
groups, co-workers. Win-Win
is a mindset that says: We are
all different. By valuing and
respecting the ideas of others, my
life will be more productive, rich, and
rewarding. Habits #1-#3 help you master personal
leadership. Win-Win is the first habit of interpersonal
leadership — building strong relationships with
others by helping them succeed, too. What does
this have to do with managing diabetes? If you look
again at the 7 self-care behaviors, you’ll see that
each behavior benefits from the advice, ideas, or
support of someone else. For example, partnering
with a diabetes educator will help you acquire the
knowledge and skills you need to master Problem
Solving and other self-care behaviors. When you
and your medical team review your blood glucose
and A1C measures you can work together to
adjust medication, diet, and exercise, as necessary.
Thinking Win-Win is just as important with your
family and friends. Share your self-care goals with
them, as well as your concerns and fears. They
can help you problem-solve, motivate you to
reduce risks, and keep you to your commitments.
Win-Win is about creating a positive energy of
cooperation, which naturally leads to success in
diabetes management, and every area of life.

When was the last time you stopped talking
long enough to truly understand another person?
Too often, we listen with one ear, more anxious to
respond than to understand. And yet listening —
genuine listening — is one of the most powerful
habits of a highly effective person. Diabetes is
sure to stir up many emotions. While you need to
express them, your desire to listen should come
first. Why? Listening to your doctor and diabetes
educator is how you learn the practical skills of
self-care. What about your family members and
employer? They need to be understood too,
especially if you want them to change some of
their behaviors. When someone feels understood
and appreciated, he or she is far more open to
your needs. Listen with your mind
and your heart. Let the other
person know you understand.
Then make yourself
understood — in a clear,
honest way, seeing the
situation through the other
person’s eyes. Can you see how
practicing Habit 5 will greatly
enhance your Healthy Coping ability?
When you seek first to understand, then to be
understood, you open the door to creative win-
win solutions. Differences are no longer problems,
but stepping-stones to Habit #6 Synergize.

If you’ve ever heard great music, or watched
a winning team in action, you’ve seen the miracle
of synergy. Synergy happens when two or more
people work together to find a better solution
than either could alone. Synergy can be a creative
and powerful force in managing diabetes. For
example, if your goal is Healthy Eating, your
diabetes educator can help you work out a food
plan that suits your lifestyle. What about Being
Active? Taking the first step toward an exercise
routine can be hard. But when you combine the
guidance of your educator with the support of
your family and friends, the power of synergy will
get you moving! Synergy is all about building
relationships with others to help you make
progress as a diabetes self-manager, and in every
area of life. Always synergize with the goal of
progress — not perfection!

A man is busy sawing down a tree. He tells
you he’s been sawing away for five hours. You
notice that the saw blade looks dull and suggest
that he sharpen it. “I can’t,” he says. “I’m too busy
sawing.” Sharpening the saw is about keeping all
parts of yourself sharp: physical, mental, social,
and spiritual. Balancing all parts of your nature is
essential to your effectiveness as a diabetes self-
manager. For example, Physical: Keep yourself in
shape by being active, eating healthy, monitoring,
and reducing risks. Mental: Continually educate
yourself about diabetes.
At the same time, commit
to one or more self-care
behavior goals. Achieving
goals will build your
confidence and self-esteem.
Social: Strengthen your
relationships with family and friends by practicing
Habits 4, 5, and 6. Spiritual: Give time to things
that bring you a sense of peace and meaning, such
as walking, meditating or praying, giving service
to others, etc. Spiritual renewal will keep you
centered with your deepest values and help you to
cope. Keep learning and growing in each of your
four dimensions as you go forward. You will quickly
see that diabetes has not changed your life —
you have changed your life. Where you take it
from here, only you can imagine.

Self-Care Behaviors
The American Association of Diabetes Educators (AADE) is an
association of healthcare professionals dedicated to helping people
with diabetes become successful at self-managing their condition.
Diabetes educators provide the knowledge, skills, and tools needed to
achieve this goal. Diabetes education focuses on 7 self-care behaviors.
HEALTHY EATING Eating healthy foods, understanding
portion sizes, and knowing the best times to eat are central
to managing diabetes. Weight control can also be an
important part of successful self-care.
BEING ACTIVE Regular activity is important for overall
fitness, weight management and blood glucose control.
MONITORING Daily self-monitoring of blood glucose
provides people with diabetes information on how food,
physical activity, and medications affect their blood
glucose levels.
TAKING MEDICATION Effective drug therapy in combination
with healthy lifestyle choices can lower blood glucose levels
and reduce risk of complications from diabetes.
PROBLEM SOLVING A person with diabetes must keep his or
her problem-solving skills sharp. A high or low
blood glucose episode or sickness will
require making informed decisions
about food, activity, and medications.
HEALTHY COPING Coping with
diabetes depends on a positive
frame of mind. This is achieved
by learning what can be controlled,
setting achievable self-care goals, and
talking about concerns and fears.
REDUCING RISKS Preventing complications
from diabetes and maximizing overall health depend on
risk-reducing behaviors, such as quitting smoking and
getting regular eye, foot, and dental checkups.

Action Plan
The purpose of this Action Plan is to help you set
easy-to-achieve self-care goals, one goal at a time.
As you follow this plan, remember to aim for
progress, not perfection.
1. Read the list of the seven self-care behaviors on
the previous page. Using a separate piece of paper,
write down the one behavior that seems most
challenging. This will be your priority goal.
2. Under the goal you have written down, write a
small commitment toward that goal. Be sure to use
proactive language. For instance, if your goal is
“Being Active,” your commitment might be, I choose
to walk each day for 15 minutes. If it is “Monitoring,”
I choose to check my blood glucose levels regularly.
Remember to start with small choices!
3. Put your goal in a win-win frame of mind. Under
your commitment statement, write the names of two
(or more) people who can help you achieve your
goal — at least one from your medical team (doctor,
educator, dietitian, etc.) and one from your social
circle (spouse, friend or child).
4. Contact the people you listed above and share
your goal with them. Schedule periodic meetings
or appointments with them to check your progress.
Write these meetings down on your calendar.
5. When you feel you have made progress with this
goal, select another goal from the list of self-care
behaviors and repeat these steps.
6. Post your commitment sheet where you can see it.
Also, keep this guide with you for inspiration and
encouragement. It will “recharge” your proactive
spirit as you move closer to mastering all the
diabetes self-care behaviors.
