The best approach to allergies is to focus on good eating habits, practice stress reduction and do natural cleansing before the allergy season. Yogas asanas and meditation are very balancing to all aspects of mind and body and have been used by many people to reduce allergy symptoms. For meditation, I suggest the TM technique because of its ease of practice and scientific verification. Please consult your physician regarding any symptoms you have or before you make changes in lifestyle and diet.

However, the complexity, which makes it so engaging, also makes it difficult to define. As with other aspects it is probably best to be flexible, and know when one cannot rely on memory alone, and know when one must attend absolutely to the client and thus some mechanical means of recording is required. Possibly of all the issues within consultation this is the thorniest. In the former case there is the issue of attentiveness - is it possible to fully attend to a client and accurately note down all the detail and nuances of a consultation? In the latter there are issues of privacy - how comfortable are clients with the idea that their words are being recorded, even with the knowledge that these recordings will be erased later. Although clients might be uncomfortable with being recorded it is likely that they will be less upset with that than with a therapist whose head is constantly in a note pad, or who has remembered some important detail of the life story that the client presented at consultation.

The Institute of Medicine recently published a study that indicates ninety million Americans are health illiterate, which means we do not know how to interpret or use health information to control or improve our health, or prevent chronic disease. The environment that we work in, live in, walk through, live near -- how does that environment have an impact on the way that we feel and the way we feel about ourselves?. How do we learn to trust in the order of the universe? By behaviors that come from trusting the order inside ourselves.

It is not restricted to the practice of hypno-psychotherapy, but occurs in medicine and mental health amongst others. In some case it might be possible to produce guidelines which allow for the ethical treatment of clients, and which provide safety for the therapists, in some, as in the second case discussed, it may not be possible. Either way we must consider ethical guidelines as a template for the practice of hypno-psychotherapy and never forget that counter examples and exceptions will arise, at which point it is the therapists responsibility to discuss the matter with their supervisor and other qualified therapists. This brief outline of ethical guidelines and ethical issues in hypno-psychotherapy demonstrates the difficulty in trying to produce legislation for interventions which affect other individuals. We must also have some understanding of where the therapist's ethical responsibility ends.

Caffeine, which is a major component in most soft drinks, removes water from the body faster than the body can absorb it again, thereby generating constant thirst. People, who frequently take soft drinks, can never really quench their thirst because their bodies continually and increasingly run out of cellular water. There are college students who drink as many as 10-14 cans of cola a day. Apart from its diuretic action and its addictive effects on the brain, regular caffeine intake overstimulates the heart muscles, causing exhaustion and heart disease. Eventually, they confuse their bodies' never-ending thirst signal with hunger and they begin to overeat, causing swelling and excessive weight gain.
