August 13, 2016

Sex addiction recovery

There are some ways to deal with sex addiction, but nothing proves convenient as the 12 step program. This program has also worked for many other addictions such as gambling, drug abuse, over-eating and more.

STEP 1: At this step, you have to admit that you are not in control of your sex addiction, and you need help simply because it is causing you a lot of problems. To save the situation, you have to seek help from a specialist.

STEP 2: Here you have to acknowledge that there is a higher power that can save your situation. A higher power refers to God. Turn to your God and pray that he helps you. The main purpose of a higher power is to play a neutral role.

STEP 3: At this step, you have to offer yourself to what you consider a higher power. You can achieve this by attending your church, reading your Bible or anything that shows you are practicing the faith. However, faith isn’t important. What matters most is showing that you believe in a higher power.

STEP 4: Once you’ve established the presence of a higher power, you are then required to review your morals. See if they are in line with what is required of you based on your beliefs. Examine yourself, find out what you’ve been doing wrong to understand why you couldn’t let the desire go at the first place.

STEP 5: After analyzing your situation, it is time to share it with someone. He or she can be your sponsor or spouse or any other person having the same problem. This will help you to understand your problem clearly.

STEP 6 & 7: At this stage, you’ve moved from identifying your problem to recognizing it. In short, you are past that stage of repeating the same mistake again. You can’t change the past, but you can work on your present. It is at this point that you have to try and reconcile with the higher power to forgive you of your sins.

STEP 8: Here you have to identify the people, your behavior has harmed. For example, your family, spouse or your victims.

STEP 9: After identifying the people your habit has harmed, you have to make some amendment to release the guilt. You can simply apologize. It doesn’t have to be fast. This is one of the hardest steps so take your time.

STEP 10: Identify what triggered you to habit and handle them properly. Ensure that these triggers, don’t end up encouraging another type of addiction.

STEP 11: Pray and meditate a lot. You can set aside at least an hour every day to reflect on your life this will enable you to cope with your current life.

STEP 12 (The final step): Work hand in hand with other people who are addicted to sex in one way or another. You can also share the experiences you’ve gained with others still struggling with sex addiction.

Fighting sex addiction is never easy. The good news is, it doesn’t require any medication. It all depends on your willingness to come out of it. If you can follow the 12 steps above, you’ll be completely cured.

Overcoming Alcoholism with Self Hypnosis

August 12, 2016

Understanding alcoholism and its recovery

As an alcohol addict, you can see drinking as a solution to everything. The truth is, no matter how much relief you feel after some few bottles, it never solves anything. What it does, is make you forget your problem for a few hours until the next hangover. The truth is, it does more harm than help. If you’ve reached a point you can’t help drinking, then you are an addict. The only way to get out of this is to seek help. But first of all, you need to recognize that alcohol is a drug. Once you recognize this, it will be easier to help yourself.

Apart from ruining your life, alcohol will harm your physical health. For example, it will interfere with the functionality of your liver. Keep in mind that liver can’t process large amounts of alcohol you drink once. It may also lead to complications such as high blood pressure and lowered immune system.

If you take alcohol for a long time, you’ll also develop issues related to cognitive function. Drinking too much alcohol may result in the hardship of controlling your emotions. Some visible signs will include, anger and impulsiveness.

For a person who drinks on occasions, it will be hard for him or her to recognize that he or she is an addict. The only way to save yourself is to know whether you are a social drinker or a problem drinker. If you are a social drinker, you will drink maybe one or two drinks while enjoying an occasion.  A problem drinker will have to drink up to six drinks on one occasion because he or she can’t control it.

What makes them different is that a problem drinker will consume alcohol to get some physical and psychological relief. On the other hand, a social drinker will take it to get some feeling of relaxation especially after some hard task or during an occasion. Unlike a problem drinker, he or she won’t drink it each and every weekend or whenever he or she has the urge. If you are a drinker who can’t say no to alcohol whenever you come across it or feels that you need it, then it is a problem that requires an action to be taken.

How to overcome alcohol addiction with self-hypnosis

First of all, accept it is a problem. Then assume it is a bad habit that you need to change. Keep in mind that there will be withdrawal symptoms. The good news is, they won’t last provided you stick to your new plan of letting go.

With hypnosis, you will see your drinking habit as a separate object that you can let go whenever you need to. You just need to assume it isn’t related to you in any way and work towards breaking the bond that brings you together.

The final word

Stopping alcohol addiction starts with you. You must accept it is a problem that needs a solution. You can then proceed with the self-hypnosis, where you picture it as an object that isn’t a part of you. By doing this whenever you feel the urge to drink, you will be able to control your cravings most of the times, and before you know it, you won’t be drinking too much.

Embracing healthy lifestyle for the whole family

August 11, 2016
Embracing healthy lifestyle

Embracing healthy lifestyle for the whole family is the best thing you can do to your family. As for drugs, it all leads to destruction

Embracing healthy lifestyle for the whole family: Being a good role model

The best gift as a parent you can ever give to your children both socially and health wise is being focused in embracing healthy lifestyle for the whole family. More so to the children this is very important and doctor Dalal Akoury is advising on the adoption of the following points as guidelines in embracing healthy lifestyle for the whole family:

  • Ensure your child’s diet is balanced and contains a variety of foods from all the five food groups.
  • Encourage your children to eat a nutritious breakfast every day using foods allowable as healthy for consumption.
  • Water is life and many children often shy away from drinking water. Doctor Akoury recommends that drinking plenty of water in place of processed soft drinks and other drinks rich in sugars.
  • Be very mindful about what you say before children and especially comments touching on food. That is to say refrain from using negative language around less healthy foods such as bad or fattening. It’s not the type of food that’s bad because it’s the amount and how often the food is eaten that can be problematic. In place of such negative comments make reference to such foods as occasional or extra foods and keep portion sizes small.
  • Have measures to control the quantities of such occasional or ‘extra’ foods consumed weakly and ensure that the whole family sticks to this rule and introduce more nutritious snacks where applicable.
  • Your stock of food at home should be rich in a variety of healthy foods which are easily available from the market like whole fruit, whole grain crackers with slices of reduced-fat cheese, reduced-fat yoghurt or pre-sliced veggie sticks with hummus or reduced fat cream cheese.
  • Discourage eating in front of the TV or computer as this is often done mindlessly without paying attention to hunger cues and can result in the consumption of unnecessary kilojoules (energy).
  • As often as possible, eat together at the dinner table and turn off the TV, even if the whole family isn’t present.
  • Be mindful and listen to hunger cues. Most children are great at eating to their hunger so let your child stop eating when they don’t want anymore. Kids will eat when they’re hungry regardless of the food on offer, so always have healthy options available.
  • Children start to form food likes and dislikes from an early age, so always offer variety. This will not be very easy but with determination you will be able to get a break through on what your child likes the most, remember that giving up is not an option in this case. Never forget to present all foods in smaller portions but in a friendly and engaging way.
  • Avoid using food as a reward or bribe, or holding back on foods as punishment. Use activities or trips to the park as alternatives.

Physical activities

Being physically active is an important part of a healthy lifestyle and must never be forgotten. Create time for your kids to play outside with them for at least an hour daily. Be a role model and make physical activity a family event by playing in the park or kicking a ball around.

Finally embracing healthy lifestyle will entail all that we have discussed and many more that you can get up on scheduling for an appointment with the experts at AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center under the able leadership of Doctor Akoury’s care.

Alcohol poisoning signs and symptoms

Alcohol poisoning signs

Alcohol poisoning signs and symptoms. Ideally helping out alcohol poisoning victims get better is everybody’s responsibility

Alcohol poisoning signs and symptoms: The dangers that comes with it

We are always told that knowledge is power and this is very applicable especially when that knowledge is going to make you have a better and much healthier life. The connotation that what you don’t know won’t harm you is not applicable with addiction. If you are ignorant of the dangers you are subjecting yourself to by abusing drugs, you are even in more danger than those who are just in denial but are well informed of the consequences. It is therefore our desire to pull you out of the jaws of ignorance by sharing with you some of the alcohol poisoning signs and symptoms as follows:

  • Unconsciousness or semi-consciousness
  • Slow respirations (breaths) of eight or less per minute, or lapses between respirations of more than eight seconds.
  • Cold, clammy, pale, or bluish skin.
  • In the event of alcohol poisoning, these signs and symptoms will most likely be accompanied by a strong odor of alcohol.

We may not be able to conclusively outline all the obvious signs of alcohol poisoning in this article and so we want to urge you to always be in constant touch with experts so that you are not caught pants down, remember the wise saying that “the early bird will always catch the worm.”  So be the one who will by seeking for timely help from the experts at AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center under the able leadership of doctor Dalal Akoury today.

Alcohol poisoning signs and symptoms: Appropriate action plan

In the fight against addiction, it is always very important that we have some sought of work plan that is to say things that we can do to salvage the situation whether we are affected directly or indirectly and they may include the following:

  • If you encounter a person who exhibits one or more of the signs and symptoms, do what you would do in any medical emergency: Call 911 immediately.
  • While waiting for 911 emergency transports gently turn the intoxicated person on his/her side and maintain that position by placing a pillow in the small of the person’s back. This is important to prevent aspiration (choking) should the person vomit. Stay with the person until medical help arrives. 

Finally several studies have established that binge drinking use by youth and young adults increases the risk of both fatal and nonfatal injuries. In fact research has also shown that teenagers and other children who use alcohol before age 15 are five times more likely to become alcohol dependent than adults who begin drinking at age 21. This should resonate to all of us of the dire consequences of alcohol poisoning. Besides that other consequences of youth alcohol use may include increased risky sexual behaviors, poor school performance, increased risk of being a victim of violence or sexual assault and increased risk of suicide and homicide. In other words alcohol has nothing good to offer you’re your health irrespective of your age.

Leukoplakia in the mouth. This is mostly affecting that part of the mouth where the chew or dip normally rest. If you are wondering, leukoplakia is a gray/white patch in the mouth of smokeless tobacco users. This condition can be come cancerous if not corrected in good time. Even though these sores as they are commonly known are painless, they can easily cause cancer if not treated. The best treatment for leukoplakia is to stop using tobacco.

Tobacco also causes bad breath, stained teeth and weak gum tissues. Regular use of tobacco increases the infections associated with gum diseases, cavities, scratching, bad breath and even loss of bones around the teeth.
