For me personally the meaning of the books written by Dr. Ramon Gallegos Nava, have brought me very good knowledge to improve evidence in education, I think these books are very suited to the times, has been deteriorating the application of this knowledge or a better way led to the study of these books and strategies to implement in spiritual people as human beings, conscious, with responsibility, freedom, love, compassion, dialogue, cooperation and communication with our spirit to our fellow men, also feel that these books bring us lessons that prepare us in a better way to get away with more knowledge of difficult future, competitive awaits us as a human race, but with the evolution of consciousness and all this kind of reading that we have announced and will continue reading as this is a connection we will be learning, using, exercising these positive lessons not only total respect for the environment, but also the people, human beings, friends, enemies, strangers, teaching them our knowledge gained in these books that I say gold book because we prepare for a peaceful future. The new holistic education, understood as comprehensive knowledge of other non-education as usual, mechanistic, traditional, and holistic education that the key element is a complete learning humans attending or making a best interest no nothing but the human intellect, but something more into the subject as must be the emotions, the physical, social, aesthetic and spiritual all of the subject. .

Much of what holistic health and wellness strives for is misunderstood by the general community. It is easy to label those that take a global approach to wellness as extremists or eccentrics, but we believe if our objectives were better understood many people would want to adopt some of the practices of a holistic life style and approach to wellness.

For instance, when a person is ill, they want their health care provider to take into consideration everything about them, not just to see them as a list of symptoms, but as a person with feelings, who is willing to participate in his own recovery. Much of holistic health and wellness concerns itself with individuals taking responsibility for their own health. This seems to be consistent with the tradition of individualism which has characterized the culture of the United States since its inception, and is not a fringe ideology but a healthy approach to wellness.

Health is not just about what to do when you get sick, but how to stay healthy when you are already healthy, and how to work with your body to repair itself when you do fall ill. This does not negate the need for modern medicine and techniques, but rather looks at modern medicine as just one more of the many tools people have at their disposal to get the most out of life and contribute the most to life. Holistic wellness is about balance, responsibility, and often just plain common sense.

This essay seeks to make a brief introduction to the educational work of Dr. Ramon Gallegos Nava’s Basic Principles of holistic education, trying to synthesize the concepts, models, goals, among other reasons cited in these books by authors who are experts on matters related to this emerging paradigm for the education of XXI century society. Education is the most viable tool for the development of all human beings, and therefore, the societies that have inhabited our home planet in the past, present, and of course in the future. This projection is before us, the reality we are living with the current problems arising from the conventional educational model based on the mechanistic paradigm, which has caused a decline in human development of our society, affecting performance in full individual dimensions, social, community, planet, and of course produces a total absence of any spiritual action, has given priority to the scientific and technological development, or the individual growth of the external ego, rather than the emotional and spiritual development or community development , which are states of consciousness that promote the enrichment of relationships with planetary beings “holistic education is a process of becoming aware that the world is a unity, an interdependent whole, is based on a deep devotion for life and the potential inherent in human nature. ” This holistic education is an integral process to restructure education in all its aspects, as a new paradigm provides us with a global framework based on the best of human knowledge, arts, sciences, traditions and spirituality, resulting the transdisciplinarity .

Saving on Health Care Costs

A pharmaceutical industry representative said that the measures of the administration to save 1,500 million in health care costs will lead to the loss of 500 jobs. This type of argument leaves me cold. Or rather disturbs me which group interests come before the benefit of society as a whole. It’s like snuff planters complain about smoking prevention standards or manufacturers of weapons by banning free sale to individuals. What is important in the field of health, is to combat health care waste that also stimulates the corruption, the doctor in prescribing certain drugs, or lose control of many recipes that even resell on the black market. Just like that.

In any case, what can I say, the decisions to save our health system I seem prudish and even ridiculous. What would stop resolving the kits home where we store all kinds of medicines, many of them expired. Only reduce by half would save far more than these meager 1,500 million. And of course, we would avoid many problems caused by self-medication, with the new health care costs they generate. And we have believed that the welfare of this country is an unlimited mana, which justifies any pain you have a CT or MRI, any justification for ill use an ambulance and any request for drugs deserves fill a prescription. To follow so soon will not get 100% of our GDP to meet health care costs.

That, not counting the thousands of foreigners a “many of them with kidney forradoa ” coming to our country and be operated exclusively for treated like royalty with expensive treatments. For all that, I think our politicians are cowards, to raise the cuts. If you establish some kind of payment, even symbolic, for each medical act, we would see what the long queues would soon disappear in the consultations and the real patients may be cared much better.

Adolescent Health

In addition to balanced diet of adolescents has to be varied and more energy. According to the guidelines of the World Health Organization (WHO), the daily diet of a teenager who may vary according to lead a life more or less active, must be greater than the 3,500 calories a day. A balanced diet during adolescence must contain the same proportions of nutrients than any other stage of life: 60% carbohydrate, 25% fat, 14% protein and 1% of vitamins and minerals. In addition to balanced nutrition of adolescents should be rich and varied, no forbidden foods, even those who have good reputation, such as hamburgers, red meat or sweets, because the key is to moderate consumption. Educating for eating right nutrition education must also take into account the turmoil and rebelliousness that characterize this stage of life. The diet does not have to be boring and difficult to carry.

The latest trends in nutrition and tax him fleeing coercive. Several studies have demonstrated that the more rigid we are to make dietary rules, unless we get the desired effect. And this is observed reliably in. At this age are extremely dangerous if are not properly addressed by a specialist. Nutritional imbalances can not only produce changes in all cardiovascular risk factors such as elevated cholesterol and, especially, the occurrence of obesity and diabetes, but may also adversely affect the mood and the onset of eating disorders. Body Conscious eating disorder and Adolescence is an especially vulnerable to all forms of social pressure and fashion, and certainly one of the dominant is the cult of the body and the identification of thinness with success in interpersonal relationships . Thus, the preoccupation with weight and figure are exaggerated in this period and even more so in females.

This is a troubling combination for the two most common eating disorders: anorexia (refusing to eat) and bulimia (excessive need to eat). Food thus becomes an emotional nourishment. The attitude of total rejection or delivery emotional frenzy that food intended fill or empty alleviate existential, emotional deprivation, frustration and disappointment of all kinds of love. These eating disorders can affect hormonal balance. In girls can lead to amenorrhea (loss of menstruation) and in boys inhibition of sexual desire. Complex alterations also occur in some neurochemical mechanisms. Altered levels of serotonin, an important neurotransmitter that regulates mood, anxiety and compensation processes and satiety. With a great interest in health and alternative medicine. I believe that natural remedies and alternative therapies have their place in modern medicine. I am confident that an informed person is potentially a more happy and healthy.

What is holistic skin care? It is a regime that recognizes that your skin is not only the outer layer of your body also reflects the internal state of your body. Instead of simply treating the surface symptoms, such as wrinkles, yellowing skin, acne, dry flakes, and so on, holistic skin care aims to address the root problems in an effort to revitalize and rejuvenate whole body.

Holistic Treatment Options Skin Care Holistic sometimes negative reputation mainstreamers who prefer to prescribe drugs for the condition of almost all those found. The problem is that most prescription drugs and fixes have isolated effects, not to have the whole picture into account.

A strong anti-drug by mouth, such as acne Accutane could have the effect of reducing the oiliness of the skin surface and reduce acne, but only at the expense of the liver. Botox injections may plump up the skin and reduce wrinkles, but the effects are temporary and the safeness of the procedure is questionable.

The three steps to a healthy life are weight control, healthy diet and the use of technology to monitor and control diabetes. Kathy Vlietstra is a woman who underwent surgery because they had diabetes. After the surgery lost 50 kilos extra weight I had and now his diabetes is under control, using an insulin pump and glucose monitor. Kathy has followed three simple steps to maintain a healthy life by controlling your diabetes: weight control, healthy diet, and monitoring and control of diabetes through the use of technology. Before surgery, Kathy performed little or no exercise and had a poor diet.

This helped to develop diabetes and weight to go up, trying to lower with no success. Their quality of life was poor due to illness and being overweight is not allowed to perform many activities. Several years ago while working as a nurse in a hospital in Bronson, noticed the product many medical complications of diabetes, and it was then decided to make a radical change in his life, with the aim of improving their health and live better. A classification of diabetes: type 1, type 2, gestational diabetes and prediabetes. Type 1 diabetes is when the body stops producing insulin, the hormone that unlocks the cells of the body, and the glucose enters them. There is an estimated 5-10% of Americans diagnosed with this type of diabetes. Type 2 diabetes is when there is resistance to insulin, as well as deficiency of it. Most people diagnosed with diabetes have this type.

Gestational diabetes occurs during pregnancy when levels are elevated blood sugar regularly during the second or third semester. Although some women after pregnancy the condition disappears, many others develop type 2 diabetes later. There is another condition called prediabetes, which is when they rise above normal levels of blood glucose, but not enough to be diagnosed as type 2 diabetes. In the U.S., about 57 million people have prediabetes, and 23.6 million have diabetes. Some of the complications that Kathy, working as a nurse saw in their patients, are: vision problems, amputations, etc. Diabetes has characteristic symptoms: frequent urination, excessive thirst and hunger, fatigue, irritability, blurred vision, unusual weight loss, among others. Many people do not seek diagnosis or treatment for diabetes because most of the symptoms seem harmless and let pass the time until reaching complications. Kathy underwent bariatric surgery in April 2008 in order to lose weight and control your diabetes problem. Now follow a healthy diet and maintaining healthy eating habits. Step 3 is to use technology to control their diabetes. With an insulin pump can know how many carbohydrates consumed, so you can compensate with the right amount of insulin. It also has a glucose monitor, which together with the insulin pump, to save you time and keep it healthy. Previously he had to inject twice and stick your finger several times a day to see the level of sugar in your blood. Now it’s easier and more comfortable for her. Having suffered from type 2 diabetes since she was 10 years, now having dropped about 50 kilos of sugar level is controlled and feels better than ever. Obesity causes or worsens, several diseases that threaten life. Diabetes is one of them. If you have diabetes and are overweight, or body mass index exceeds 40, go to Obesity Goodbye for information about bariatric surgery.

Improving Mental Health

Doctors who specialize in psychiatry and clinical psychology specialist psychologists, psychotherapists are credited, if they show documented their practice, activity and clinical supervision. 2 .- A minimum of three years part-time in the period of post-graduate university dedicated to theoretical training, technical and clinical psychotherapy with a minimum of 600 hours. 3 .- A minimum of two years of practice professional psychotherapists, properly supervised. It should include also, at least the treatment of 2 cases with a minimum of 300 treatment sessions and 100 sessions of supervision of these treatments. This monitoring of professional practice, be done with expert psychotherapists accredited by the respective associations of psychotherapists.

4 .- A minimum of six months of practical activities in public or private environments of Mental Health, in which the psychotherapist in training, may have direct experience of clinical psychopathology, allowing you to make direct contact with various forms of manifestation of disorders mental, and the various professionals involved in Mental Health. With these filters is much more difficult for someone to “brew” to the harm that means for potential patients. As we see, and summarized to a good education must be more than three years and must necessarily include personal psychotherapy with a clinical supervision of own cases. From a practical standpoint, when someone asks me for example, that if I know a therapist in Albacete. I say no, but see the guide, FEAP and find someone in that city, because anyone who is registered here, at least claims to have properly trained and is no upstart.

Honestly I think the specialty of psychiatry is the most difficult of medicine. I say this because we know that psychiatrists are crazy enough fame and when you ask me, I usually reply that that statement is probably true. I think it may be true for two main reasons: first because we are people and not the same to operate a walk, say, to deal with a neurotic person, whose problems can be very similar to mine, being in such cases very difficult to make therapeutic distance and avoid “contagion.” The second reason is that many professionals, by virtue of their specialty, they begin to treat patients directly, ignoring “That is madness itself.” In other words, it is absolutely essential, as I have written above, be well analyzed. There have been “cook before friar” or in our case, “have been before patient therapist.” I was born in Barcelona (Spain). I’m a psychiatrist, psychologist and psychotherapist. I have over 30 years dedicated to psychotherapy, both in appearance and clinical teaching. I have given numerous training courses in many very prestigious institutions. I’m currently very focused on integrated brief psychotherapy, that does not know which therapy is planned that embraces the individual as a whole (physical, psychological and social). It is a therapy “face to face” where the teacher is very important factor because of what it is that the patient is that you learn to solve their conflicts. The therapist lends his “observing ego” and the patient learns to observe from the outside to be facing the various conflicts that have led to consultation. Therapy is a very creative and that led to (work with the photographic history of the patients) that along with writing, sports and reading are my favorite hobbies.

A healthy diet during adolescence is essential for proper physical and mental development. But what and how teens should eat? The formula is deceptively simple: balance, variety, sufficient calories, and most importantly, do not ban any food because the constraints and compulsions are counterproductive.a In this critical age, emotions and affections, may adversely affect and interfere with a good education dietetics. Very often we eat in terms of how we feel. At the same time, our mood depends on the food we have eaten. This reciprocal relationship is especially true during adolescence, the stage of the fastest growing life with early childhood. Alterations and nutritional deficiencies may end up having great significance. Not only in terms of development and size, but also in the emergence of serious eating disorders like anorexia or bulimia. At this stage of life, the total rejection or delivery to the food frenzy can become a way to overcome the feeling of emptiness and frustration.

At the same time, adolescence is a period of growth at an accelerated pace, during which the child eventually becomes an adult. The changes affect not only the physical appearance (increased muscle mass, bone mass, fat, sexual development), but also to the entire complex mental (motor coordination, cognitive adaptation, intellectual, emotional and cultural). One of the most stressful situations is, fat or not to follow some standards of beauty unhealthy body. The self-imposed a strict diet can become the prelude to many eating disorders. These alterations occur at a time of life when nutritionally requirements are higher than in adulthood.
