Alive and Healthy Mission Statement
At the Alive and Healthy Institute, spirituality simply means attaining true happiness - it means doing that which brings about a stable, invincible happiness for yourself and for the world. Whether you find this happiness in praying to god, in the beauty of nature, or in charity to others we support you!

Alive and Healthy believes that life offers us opportunities for self-transformation leading us to higher levels of joy. Thus, it is our obligation to share the tools and techniques that have been passed on by our forefathers that have consistently helped people on the path to joy and health. And when you get delayed by disease, despair or desolation, we offer you the tools and methodologies from around the globe to aid in your recovery.

It is our goal at Alive and Healthy to spread happiness to every recess of the globe - to remove the blockades to happiness and light the flame or compassion in every human heart.

Tools for Happiness

Everyone knows that unstable emotions and an uncomfortable body make life difficult and unpleasant. Instead of a joyful life, their life is full of daily challenges. We are the solution people for these challenges.

Many people do not know where to turn nor what to do to become healthier and happier. Some are hesitant to take powerful medications and others cannot continue to use their meds because of side effects and complications. We are the bridge builders between the world of prescription medicines and holistic health.

Alive and Healthy provides the link between modern science and ancient therapies for your mind and body.   We only promote therapies that simultaneously benefit the mind and body, and minimize the risk of side-effects.

People are no longer willing to receive care for a physical ailment in a manner that ignores their emotions, fatigue and frustration. Holistic care is comprehensive and practical. We acknowledge the powerful influence that emotions have on the immune system and the healing process. Our methods and therapies can safely help you become happier and healthier at every level.

The opening page of our web-site is filled with information, tools and techniques to help you feel better. I want to take a moment and explain the nine powerful strategies available to you right now. I call them the tools for self-transformation, because like any tool, it is up to you to select it and use it properly.

Tools for Self-Transformation

1. The Neti Pot
There are more and more people suffering from environmental contamination, allergies, and sinus problems. The Neti pot is a nasal wash that provides a simple and easy solution for the entire family. When you can breathe easily through your nose, it promotes clear thinking and promotes relaxation.

2. Rejuvenation Herbs
Rejuvenation herbs are a unique class of herbs that help the mind and body organize and utilize their own resources for healing and happiness. With several thousand years of consistent results, it is easy for us to guarantee you the results you seek from the properly-matched herbs. Himalayan Heritage(TM) is our own hand-selected line of rejuvenation herbal products.

3. Meditation
Meditation is an essential tool for the transformation of our personality and our physical health. When you are over stressed and over worked, meditation can bring back your equilibrium. There is no other method that so clearly and gently introduces you to yourself than meditation.

4. Relaxation
Many people today complain of fatigue and mental dullness. Relaxation means learning to rest, cleanse and refresh both your body and mind. Relaxation is not about sagging muscles and short naps. When you learn to relax properly, you gain benefits not found in sleep or exercise. To be alert and vital throughout the day, you must learn to relax.

5. Breathing
When you are looking for a shortcut to improve your mood, there is nothing faster than breathing exercises. The most powerful tool to improve your mental health is your breath. The pattern of your breathing strongly impacts your mind, emotions, and metabolism. As you learn to gently regulate the motion of your lungs, you can protect yourself from many diseases and overcome great unhappiness and anxiety.

6. Food and Diet
Next to breathing, food is the most obvious way to change your experience of life. You can eat foods that will make you feel sleepy and dull; you can eat foods that will make you feel restless and irritable; and you can eat foods that will make you feel inspired and energized. When your menu planning is based upon health and happiness, your food will be fresh, warm and delicious. The happiness diet will also help you attain an optimal weight and an unending level of endurance and strength.

7. Stretching your Body - Hatha Yoga
Hatha yoga is a series of postures that stretch and limber your body. This yoga exercise is designed to strengthen and tone your nervous system, your hormonal system, your cardiovascular system, as well as your musculo-skeletal system. It is the most time-tested and proven exercise program on the planet.

8. Ayurveda
Ayurveda is the science of healthy living and longevity. It teaches you how to apply every known method of psychology, physical therapy and medicine known today. It provides you with a comprehensive plan to prevent and resolve ailments of the mind and body. Our DVD course is the finest introduction available on Ayurveda.
