Anxious or Depressed? Acupuncture Can Help!

Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day:  If you suffer from anxiety, depression, have been diagnosed with bipolar disorder or other psychiatric disorder - don't despair.  Although in some cases, you MUST stay on your medication, regular weekly acupuncture treatments can help you emerge from that 'dark hole' a
nd put you back into a healthy place of mind, body and spirit.  Regular acupuncture treatments can also help with the side effects of many antipsychotic drugs (anxiety, dry mouth, lack of sex drive, weight gain).  If you or someone you care for has mental health issues, call or email my office to schedule an appointment.  I have many years experience dealing with such cases and can help.  917-701-7581  k@kmondesire.com

Look In The Mirror, Who Do You See?

Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day:  Most people look in the mirror to see if their tie is straight, their hair is tidy or if they've lost or gained a few pounds.  How many of you look in the mirror to see 'who you are'?  The eyes are the windows to the soul.  When you look at yourself in the mirror, look into your eyes and ask yourself, 'have I been true, am I honest, have I hurt someone today, do I have integrity, and what am I the possibility of becoming?'  Today is Friday...go to the mirror and take a good, long look and ask yourself these questions.  Take the weekend to find the answers.

Monday Funday Anyway

Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day:  The stupid, silly holidays are creeping up on us this week.  Don't get yourself sucked into pseudo/psycho obligations that you do not want to engage in.  There are no holiday rules and you don't go to jail for being real.  Get out and exercise as much as you can before the long weekend and let's make today - Monday, a really fun day!

Self Destructive Behavior....Keep It Personal

I heard a story this morning...someone told me about a relative of theirs who had just been released from the hospital after having 'quite the experience'.  The post-operative patient was advised by his physicians and surgeons to maintain a strict regime of low fat and healthy food choices.  The person who relayed this story to me was dumbfounded because over the course of 2 days after being released from the hospital, the patient was indulging in high fat foods and very unhealthy nutritional choices in general...sounds like a very selfish person who wants attention.

Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day:  If you are ill and advised by your physicians to maintain a healthy diet and you do not choose to follow this advice - it's on you and no one else.  If you choose to create more drama in your life and slide down the road of illness to slow death, don't engage your friends, relatives and anyone else in the process.  Everyone's health is their own responsibility.  If you are stupid enough to believe you are 'funny' or 'being a  rebel' with your health, then do it on your own....spare others unnecessary worry and concern.  Selfishness will get you no prizes when you're dead.

Imagination and Play

Imagination and Play...this is a photo of a 40yr old cruddy and broken down Sabrett hotdog cart that was filled with debris and quite an eyesore.  A little bit of imagination and playing around with some spray paint, decals and colorful flowers has now made an ugly eyesore an object of beauty and appreciation for many people.

Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day:  In all that you engage in life, take some time for a little bit of imagination.  Explore the countless positive possibilities that can become realities.  You'd be surprised what can happen.  I'm really thrilled that my latest art project came out so lovely; it has put smiles on many faces and a once ugly eyesore now sits pretty and proud for all to appreciate and enjoy!
