New Help For Menstrual Migraines

Image
  Women are three times more likely to have migraines than men. This differential does not begin until the females reach puberty. Sixty per cent of women have migraines related to the menstrual cycle. About fourteen per cent have migraines purely coordinated with menses. Could menstrually related migraines be solely linked to estrogen? That would be like saying migraines are only headaches. We now know migraines are much, much more than headaches. Menstrually related migraines are much more than estrogen fluctuating in the body. Serotonin, prostaglandin, norepinephrine, melatonin, and other chemical levels fluctuate with the menstrual cycle. Each plays some role in menstrual related migraines. Menstrual migraines usually start between two days before the onset of menses and two days after the onset of menses. A simple option is to take naproxen 500 mg twice a day WITH FOOD during these five days. It is important to take anti-inflammatory medicine with food to help prevent stomach u...

Image
    Happiness is something that so many people strive for each day and yet many times it eludes them. Often, they feel that happiness can be theirs if only their situations were different. Have you ever felt like that? SAMEER BHAT So often we get caught up in what I call the “if only’s”. If only my husband were nicer to me. If only I had a better job. If only the children were grown and out of the house. The list can go on and on. We can waste so much of our precious time dreaming of the “if only’s”. So many people fall into this trap and end up miserable most of their lives. SAMEER BHAT The problem is that they are looking for happiness to come to them somehow.

Creative Imagination

  Creative imagination is more than just active imagination. To be able to actively imagine things, to see and hear things in one’s mind, is an important ability. It doesn’t have to involve much creativity, though, does it? Daydreaming, for example, is a process of imagination. It can consist of an elaborate fantasy world, but one full of all the things that many people think about. Creative imagination, then, has to include the ability not just to imagine things, but to imagine original things. It is seeing things that others don’t see, and coming up with new ideas. So how do you cultivate this?  First, exercise your basic imagination. It can be as simple as thinking in pictures more, or listening to music in your mind. Play little “movies” in your mind, until you can watch them on command. This is a simple process, but for those of us that can’t easily do it naturally, it can take a lot of practice. Fortunately, it is not an unpleasant activity. The second part of developing...
