In several current publications, the emphasis is Heart Disease. A national health magazine dedicated an entire front page to this topic with graphic images and big red bold print that read "You Don't Have To Die Of A Heart Attack!"
The article reminds us to lower our cholesterol, do regular, mild, cardiovascular exercise and eat right. It's the same story we've been hearing for years. They're right, but we need more information.

There Is An
Epidemic of Heart Disease!

Most people think it will not happen to them. But 50 percent of the population of industrialized countries die from cardiovascular disease. The United States is one of the most industrialized countries in the world. That means that one out of every two people are likely to die from some form of cardiovascular disease.

If appropriate action is not taken to effectively change your lifestyle, then you have a 50/50 chance to develop cardiovascular disease, resulting in risking your health and eventually death. If this isn't enough motivation, a mental evaluation is in order.

More than 61 million Americans currently suffer from CD (Cardiovascular Disease). According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, high blood pressure is the primary disorder, followed by coronary heart disease, stroke, and congestive heart failure. CD is the leading cause of death in America, says the CDC. Over wrecks, war and everything in between, heart attack is the number one leading cause of death.

Over 70 percent of heart disease deaths occur before a person can be admitted to a hospital, and about 48 percent of stroke victims die before emergency medical personnel arrive. The age group for these disorders are getting younger all the time. Currently, middle aged women are more likely to have a heart attack than men of the same age.

It's amazing at how many people in the health field, especially in natural medicine, still smoke cigarettes and drink alcoholic beverages regularly.
Resistance to "sacrificial" changes seems to prevail for most people.

I notice this resistance in the lectures and classes that we provide across the country. I speak on common lifestyle habits that interfere with good health and an efficient immune system. Some of these are the metallic objects and watches people wear, and the wearing of synthetic fabrics and blended clothing. I find that in a small group of approximately twenty five people, only five or less will make any change over the next few days, such as not wearing their watch. They understand that objects like watches are stumbling blocks to living healthier and preventing disease, but others still don't understand the repercussions. They have health issues also, but are unwilling to make the changes to help their health recover.

TKM® provides a procedure which is unmatched worldwide in stopping heart attacks in progress. The simplicity of the procedure is amazing. Do not forget this! You WILL need it, if not for you, for someone!

Stop A Heart Attack:
PROCEDURE: Hold the entire left little finger (of the person experiencing a heart attack) with your left hand and place your right hand fingers on their 5th thoracic vertebra.

If you don't know where the 5th T.V. is, place all fingers of your right hand between the middle of the shoulder blades on the person's spine . You will be touching at least three or four vertebrae and one of them will be the 5th T.V. It should stop the heart attack within two to four minutes. The person usually will start to feel relief upon contact.

It sounds simple and possibly ridiculous, but do it and watch what happens. What do you have to lose? Anyone can do it! We have reports of mentally challenged children stopping heart attacks with this procedure!
I highly suggest practicing on people, preferably ones you know. Strangers might find this a little odd at first. That is, unless they're having a heart attack. Having this knowledge is vital to save the lives of those around you.

Eat a healthy diet regularly, not just once in a while. Check with your local health professional for what a healthy heart diet is, if needed. Aside from TKM®, we do provide nutritional and dietary counseling from a licensed and experieinced professional. For more info on diet, contact us.

Exercise is always important to maintain! At a minimal, walk daily. Two to three times a week, walk at least one to three miles at a pace that increases your heart rate. Swimming is excellent, if done regularly. Free weights, weight machines, aerobics, racquetball, etc., are good as part of a designed regular program and not just on weekends. If this higher level of challenge to your body is not at least three times a week you could be doing more harm than good. Knowledge, understanding, and wisdom in action is the best approach to all aspects of health.

I hope you embrace this concept!
It is highly beneficial to your heart to genuinely hug people on a regular basis. People who do not touch others or like to be touched are more prone to heart disease and sometimes stiff joints. Hugging others not only feels good but is very therapeutic to your cardiovascular system. Not those short abrupt hugs, but genuine, caring hugs that are long enough to feel the tension quickly begin to melt away - which you probably thought you didn't have. We need to bring proper touch back in high demand. It melts away walls that close us in and others out, and brings out the best in people. Take advantage of the many hugging opportunities over the holidays. If you don't normally have the opportunities, go out and create them. Hug to give and not to receive and you will always be better for it.

To summarize briefly; eat less meat and more vegetables, be smokeless and replace alcohol with clean water, be less sedimentary and more physically active, think less negative thoughts and think more positively; help others, even when they can't do anything in return; conquer loneliness and make more acquaintances; be joyful, laugh, hug abundantly to carry you through each day with a renewed bliss. These are all great for the heart. A little different from the average Heart article, but more effective. Oh, don't forget to apply TKM®!

TKM® is a great preventative medicine for cardiovascular disease. But, those who are already suffering from some form of cardiovascular disease, The KI Method® is remarkably effective. It often accomplishes recovery when medical science says it is impossible. Please do not under-estimate this simple although powerful and effective source of help. TKM® specializes in anything related to the fluid systems in the body, and blood is the most important fluid system aside from water.

If you are suffering from some form of cardiovascular disease, we advise attending one of our textbook classes and/or contact us for assistance. 1-800-640-7998

I believe that number is low, because in my experience many cases go unreported. According to the last census in 2000, there are 281 million people in the U.S. and at least one quarter of them suffer from some form of Sleep Disorder. Improper sleep plagues our health and causes multiple problems for the body. This sleep depravity results in emotional stress and lowered mental abilities. This includes the immune system, CNS, adrenals and other vital biosystems, hindering our quality of life resulting in depression, irritability, and consistent fatigue.

What do we do?
Well, taking drugs is not the answer. Ignoring it and hoping it will change will not solve the problem either.
There are natural sources to aid sleep. Though less problematic than sedating medications, not all natural aids are recommended, because they can present their own problems. Some professionals recommend Valerian root before bed, but it has a lingering affect of a natural sedative affecting the nervous system.

A mild relaxant known to many over generations is chamomile tea or capsules. The tea is preferred because of the warmth for the digestion and assimilation of the gentle herb. The digestive system plays a large role in sleep ability and sleep states experienced. Most people have experienced indigestion from eating late, eating hard-to-digest-food late, overeating, all causing sleep difficulties to some level. Eating too much fried food can cause proper sleep interruption. What, how, and when we eat is some of the top common impairments of sleep.

The other most common impairment is energy interference, or how our EMF (Electromagnetic fields) are affecting our environment and health!
Things such as electrical devices beside our beds (on or off), bedding, bed, bed material, clothing, light in the room, sound, and other factors such as parasitic infestation, unknown to most who have it. Parasitic infestation can be recognized sometimes by how you react to the full moon. If you feel more restless, mildly anxious, experience insomnia or a change in dreams during each full moon, then you likely have parasitic infestation, which can be resolved if properly addressed. Metal fillings (mercury) in the teeth greatly impair the ability to rid your body of bacteria and fungus. It's best to replace them before beginning any parasite cleanse.

Some of these recent discoveries are briefly explained and demonstrated in our textbook level classes while others involve too much time to cover in class.

If you suffer from a sleep disorder, we suggest: stop eating fried food, processed sugars (at anytime) and any sugar source within a few hours of bedtime. If possible, regulate the time you go to bed so the mind and body can adjust and expect to sleep at that regular time verses being confused as to what is the proper time for sleep. Do not play the television or the radio while trying to sleep. Turn out the lights! Darkness is not only better for going to sleep, but is vital for proper deep sleep and melatonin release. Deep sleep is where your body rejuvenates the most. Taking supplemental melatonin will not accomplish the same thing. In fact, it inhibits the body's release of natural melatonin. If you stop taking melatonin, it takes about two-weeks to begin naturally releasing the hormone again, under the right conditions. Just as stated in the section for heart disease, exercise is very important for proper rest, but not right before bedtime.

Bedding should be 100 percent natural fabric. Cotton works best, but must be 100 percent and not blended with any other fabric. This includes sheets, bed covers that you sleep under, and pillow cases. The fabric that covers the bed is more difficult, so you could place two 100 percent cotton sheets under you to help dilute the negative effect. What you wear in bed is very important. It should be 100 percent natural, no blends! It can be 100 percent cotton, silk, or wool.
Nothing plugged into the electrical outlet should be next to the bed, even if turned off, because the EMF interference is still in the cord.

Some basics in preparation for sleep. It is important not to have just turned off the TV, computer, or other man-made EMF devices. Have a minimum of thirty minutes to an hour afterwards - before bed. Reading is good for most people as long as it is not stimulating, but relaxing. Reading God's word, even briefly, is at the top of the list. Mentally and emotionally prepare yourself for rest and sleep. Just before bed and after going to bed is not the time to recount your day or contemplate on tomorrow. Each day has worries of its own!

Forgiveness is a huge issue for sleep disruptions! Forgive all those whom you have an unresolved issue, it may be the one laying next to you. Also, ask forgiveness for yourself. I'm sure if you check, there will be something you and the Lord know about that needs forgiveness. Next, contemplate very briefly on something you are blessed joyfully by; everyone has something! Then say goodnight, not only to your spouse and God, but to yourself and turn off the brain and sleep. If you awake later, be ok with it and focus effortlessly on sleep again.

Other tips are to not drink or eat anything cold for at least three to four hours before bed.
Aside from Chamomile tea, you can take two or three drops of Chamomile essential oil orally and wash it down with a little room-temperature or warm water. For an especially disturbing night, you could take up to six to seven drops just before bed, but not on a regular basis. I recommend either Young Living or Nature's Sunshine for this purpose.

For a digestive problem at bedtime, take one to three drops of peppermint oil and chase down with water. Lotus leaf or Lotus flower tea is not easy to find, but helps to relax the body and aids sleep.
If you really need to change your bed to something more comfortable and healthier, the "Sleep By Number" (Select Comfort) bed is highly recommended!
It is air adjustable with no metal. You will still need to cover it with two cotton sheets or purchase a pillow top bedcover of 100 percent Down (filled) with 100 percent cotton lining. I really think you'll float to sleep at that point!

As for TKM®, the Spleen sequence works best for most people. Especially remaining on the first step for a long period (10 to 20 minutes or until asleep). The Median sequence is also great, again especially the first step. Other sequences to help insomnia are the Stomach sequence, #14 sequence and #9 sequence. Quick steps, or one step TKM® procedures are: hold one or both energy spheres #18, hold both #14's comfortably. Some find that holding center of the #13's (Median level) with all fingers of both hands is good for the emotional issues that keep them awake. The #14 sequence and the #9 sequence also help you remain asleep once going to sleep. They also help resolve any nightmare or bad dream issues, especially reoccurring disturbing dreams.
Say good-bye to those sleepless nights!
