The Science of Happiness9:00 – 10:30 am on Saturday, December 10th

This seminar will help you learn:
•  The Art and Science of Inner Kindness –how to be kind to yourself in all situations and circumstances.

Date and Time: Saturday, December 10th, 9:00 – 10:30 am at Blue Sky in Grafton

How to Be Your Own Psychotherapist11:00 am – 12:00 noon on Saturday, December 10th
It seems that this world is not for the weak and meek.  It is the energetic, vibrant , strong, healthy, powerful people who feel entitled to achieve.  And according to all accounts, they do just that.  They achieve their goals.
We call them the fortunate few.  We all want to join them.  So, what causes us to sabotage our own best efforts?  What stops us from joining the ‘fortunate few?’
The Sages say that self-condemnation (identifying yourself with your mistakes) is the root cause of our problems.  Once you condemn yourself, you lose your self-respect and this leads to self-hatred.  Later, you will project your self-hatred onto others and then you will start to isolate yourself from others.  Isolation comes from falsely thinking that others know our weaknesses and condemn us. How to Be Your Own Psychotherapist is a fun filled hour of stories and strategies of how to work with your mind and relationships.  I will introduce you to ancient, time tested methods on how to counsel and train your mind to be your friend.
•  Learn how to use a working schematic of the mind, breath, body & senses
•  Understand the source and trigger of impulses and urges
•  To achieve mastery over our mind’s inconsistencies, we must transform our attitude towards our mind.  We will discuss three powerful ways to transform your attitude today.
Fee: By Donation Only, Suggested Love Offering is $15 per person, $25 per family.
Date and Time: Saturday, December 10th, 11:00 am – 12:00 noon at Blue Sky in Grafton.

I hope you can join me on Saturday morning for these presentations.  It will be a fun and interactive time with loads of new ideas and stories.

As always, I most certainly welcome you to make a private appointment so we can discuss how to apply this knowledge to benefit you and your family.

To help you reserve your spot today, please email me today.
If you have questions, please call Alive and Healthy and leave us a message.
I look forward to seeing you real soon!

Happy Winter Holidays to you and yours,

Blair Lewis

Foundations in Meditation

by Theresa Oswald, MD • September 14, 2011

A 2007 study by the U.S. government found that nearly 9.4% of U.S. adults (over 20 million) had practiced meditation within the past 12 months, up from 7.6% (more than 15 million people) in 2002. The interest and appeal of meditation is growing, but why?  The language of science can provides some answers.

In over 1,000 published research studies, various methods of meditation have been linked to changes in metabolism, mood, blood pressure, brain activity, and immune response. Meditation has been used in clinical settings as a method of stress and pain reduction.

Research has demonstrated the benefits of meditation for the following conditions:

Anxiety

Blood pressure

Cancer

Chronic pain

Cognitive function in the elderly

Coronary artery disease

Depression

Eating disorders

Fibromyalgia

Happiness

Psoriasis

Serum cholesterol

Smoking cessation

Tension headaches

Meditation can be one of the most important components of any health plan. Its unique ability to activate the relaxation response and foster mental stability provides a foundation for healing. Meditation is medicine that activates the body’s innate healing response.

If you are interested in learning more about meditation and establishing your own meditation practice consider the Meditation Foundation Master Class. This series of three classes builds a foundation for your meditation practice, explores the health benefits of meditation and the power of group meditation.

Instructors:  Theresa Oswald, MD and Blair Lewis

Helpful Thoughts from Dr. Shapiro

by Blair Lewis • August 31, 2011

Helpful Thoughts by Dr. Shapiro

If you deny me, I will come back.

I am your thoughts and I’ll cut you no slack.

Millions in numbers are me and my friends.

We fill up your noggin from end-to-end.

Your equating us with “good” or “bad” allows us to last,

And allows us to replay for you all of the past.

As you fall victim to your very own mind,

We’re not taking the blame for your self-made bind.

But if you knew how the mind works & didn’t let it run astray,

Then the fun we have tormenting you, would simply go away.

Jordan Shapiro, MD is a physician completing his Pediatric Residency at the University of Cincinnati and a long time staff member of Alive and Healthy. He is a life long student of meditation and an avid traveler to plains of suffering all over the world — serving those most downtrodden in any manner possible.

Contemplation & Relaxation — new class

by Blair Lewis • August 30, 2011

Contemplation & Relaxation – Pondering the Present and Relaxing Past the Past

This two-part class will provide you with valuable insights into how to frame your life in a manner that inspires and steadies your view of yourself and your world.

“Contemplation is not a skill limited to the spiritual seeker, rather it is an essential skill for every man, woman and child.”  — page 250, The Happiness Revolution

For over 30 years people have come to me complaining about their mind harassing them.  At first they did not realize what it was, they thought it was their neighbor, child, boss, or spouse.  I taught them powerful, quick-acting methods to discover the truth, for the problem was their mind and the cure is contemplation.  Transforming the mind from foe to friend is possible for everyone.

Jubilant with their discovery, they knew their nemesis…. but now, what to do?  They needed to cleanse their mind of harassing behaviors, but the source was unconscious.  How do you fix something you aren’t even aware of?  The answer is:  align yourself with the deeper forces of the unconscious and learn to cultivate & refine them.  There is a type of relaxation that cleanses the mind, I call it, “Relaxing Past the Past.”  It is easy to learn and easy to practice.

Contemplation allows you the time and the space to sort out distractions and make powerful life-changing decisions.  Relaxation can interrupt the flow of power that keeps you doubting and missing opportunities.  Get your mind on your side and live your life.

“Contemplation hones and refines your ability to listen to your conscience.”

– page 254, The Happiness Revolution

Instructors:  Blair Lewis, author of The Happiness Revolution and Theresa Oswald, MD
Part One: Thursday, Sept 8, 7-9 pm
Part Two:  Thursday, Sept 15th, 7-9 pm
Fee: $49 per person – or – $79 per household
Bring: Pen and notepaper; a curious mind; a desire to be a little philosophical & very relaxed.

Now is the Time to Conquer Fear

by Blair Lewis • July 18, 2011

On Tuesday evening, July 26th, the Dallas-Fort Worth community has a rare and illuminating opportunity to meet a world-renowned scholar and humanitarian – Pandit Rajmanit Tigunait, Ph.D.  His topic will be:  Conquering Fear, the Science of Self-Transformation. The following excerpt from his most recent book, The Pursuit of Power and Freedom: Katha Upanishad, clearly illustrates the importance of his upcoming topic:

“As spiritual scientists, the sages of the Himalayas were interested in discovering the anatomy of health and happiness, stamina and weakness, and joy and grief.  In an attempt to find lasting peace, they tried to understand the source of fear and the way to eliminate it once and for all.  Their limitless appetite for unveiling the mysteries of life enabled them to invest all their resources – physical, mental and spiritual.  This gave them access to a world filled with infinite possibilities – a world beyond our normal understanding.”

“All of us want to be happy.  In search of happiness, we are continually adding new nuances in the fields of science and technology, religion and politics, and trade and commerce.  Experience tells us that the more we possess, the more fearful we become, and yet our desire for power and possessions forces us to exhaust all our energies acquiring everything possible.  On the one hand, we want to be happy.  On the other hand, we do not want to let go of that which makes us miserable.  And yet we fail to see why we are caught between wanting and not wanting, freedom and bondage.”

Pandit Tigunait will share the techniques and insights that he has gleaned from a lifetime of study and commitment to helping individuals and families overcome fear, doubt and anger.  His presentation will delight you with a wonderful blend of wisdom, humor and humility.  He will be speaking at the Center for Spiritual Living in North Dallas.  Details are online at:  www.AliveandHealthy.com

The Biography of Pandit Tigunait

The spiritual head of the Himalayan Institute, Pandit Rajmani Tigunait, Ph.D. is the successor of Swami Rama of the Himalayas. Lecturing and teaching world-wide for more than 30 years, he is the author of fourteen books including his autobiography Touched by Fire: The Ongoing Journey of a Spiritual Seeker and the best-selling At the Eleventh Hour: The Biography of Swami Rama, and is a regular contributor to Yoga International magazine.

Pandit Tigunait holds two doctorates: one in Sanskrit from the University of Allahabad in India, and another in Oriental Studies from the University of Pennsylvania. Family tradition gave Pandit Tigunait access to a vast range of spiritual wisdom preserved in both the written and oral traditions. Before meeting his master, Pandit Tigunait studied Sanskrit, the language of the ancient scriptures of India ; Pali, the language of Buddhist scriptures; Prakrit, the language of Jaina scriptures; and Zend-Avesta, the language of the Zorastrian tradition. In 1976, Swami Rama ordained Pandit Tigunait into the 5,000-year-old lineage of the Himalayan masters.

While living in the world with his wife and two children, Pandit Tigunait walks in the footsteps of his master — he writes, teaches, guides and administers the work and mission of the Himalayan Institute, a multi-national humanitarian organization, while joyfully maintaining his personal commitment to his spiritual pursuits.

“Live in the world, and yet remain above it.  Find a balance between the sacred and mundane, and between worldly success and inner fulfillment.  There is a way to find freedom in this world, you do not need to try to find freedom from this world.”  –  these are the core teachings of the Himalayan sages.

Food For Your Health: Asian Diet

by Theresa Oswald, MD • March 22, 2011

There is a pandemic in the United States. It is the rampant disease of malnutrition but not in the usual sense. Malnutrition in regards to bad nutrition or non-sustainable food choices. The leading cause of death in this country and in most parts of the world is cardiovascular disease or diseases related to the heart and blood vessels. Over 600,000 people die from heart disease in the United State each year. Obesity is estimated to account for over 300,000 to 400,000 deaths per year. This is a tragedy because heart disease and obesity are for the most part preventable. Not only are they preventable, thy are also reversible. How can this be? Well the answer is simple but not effortless. Heart disease as well as obesity, diabetes and some cancers are lifestyle related diseases that improve with simple, gradual, intelligent, empowered, stepwise changes in what, where and when we eat and how we move.

What proof do we have that this is true? Well there are many indigenous groups of people around the world that have very low evidences of these diseases. Research shows that the traditional, plant-based rural diets of Asia produce much lower rates of certain cancers, heart disease, obesity and, in some cases, osteoporosis and other chronic, degenerative diseases than the rates seen in the United States.

The Asian diet is composed mainly of rice, whole grains, minimally processed whole foods, large amounts of fruits, vegetables, legumes, nuts and seeds with small amounts of vegetable oil and a moderate consumption of plant-based beverages mainly tea. It is a tasty and sustainable diet. Plants are packed with the phytonutrients we seek out in vitamins and supplements. Plants are where we derive anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals, fiber, anti-inflammatory agents, immune supporters, rejuvenating substances and cholesterol lowering agents. How convenient that these amazing health promoting chemical are found in something we need to eat daily, food.

The Asian diet is the polar opposite to SAD, standard American diet consumes 90% more animal protein, twice the fat and 3 times less fiber. Unlike Western diets, meat is rarely the main dish of any meal but rather an accent or garnish.

What Is Self Esteem Anyway?

by Anne Schanz, Ph.D., LPC • October 27, 2010

‘Self esteem‘ is a term we use so often it’s meaning isn’t really clear.

Let’s look at the words.

Self. That seems pretty simple, but is it?  Who is this ’self’ I am referring to?   Is it my body?  Am I my body?  Am I more than that?  What more? Is it my behavior?  Am I my behavior?  Is that all I am?  Who am I? This leads to more and more questions.

So this is a very complex issue after all.

Esteem. Regard, respect, admiration, acceptance.  That seems pretty clear.  So for self esteem, I need to have regard, respect, admiration, and acceptance for myself.   Do I have regard, respect, admiration and acceptance for myself?  How can I if am not sure who this ’self’ is?  Now we are back to the knarly question of ‘Who am I’?

This is the question we are really grappling with when we are having self esteem ‘issues’.  Who do I believe I am and what does that mean to me?  We start answering these questions as babies and toddlers based on our interpretations of what we experience.

We have the brain power to make global assessments long before we have the framework of experience to understand why things are happening the way they are.  We wrongly assume that everything that happens is about us (our fault), and it is all good or all bad.  During infancy and early childhood we are completely dependent beings,  driven to get those who provide us food, shelter and nurture to like us enough to take care of us so we can survive.  We inevitably discover that we are not perfect in various areas that SEEM to be crucial to our acceptance by our caregivers so we must  hide those dangerous secrets DEEP in our unconscious.  Those ’secrets’ become the drivers our behaviors now, even though we don’t know what they are, or, even that they are there.

Radical Self Acceptance is the class designed to expose these secrets and stop them from driving our current behaviors.  When we begin to understand who we really are, not the secrets we hid away as tiny children, we begin the journey to true regard, respect, admiration and acceptance of our ’self’.  Once the journey is started, it does not stop.

Join me.  The class is available every month.  The class meets for 2 hours every week for 4 consecutive weeks.  It is offered on Tuesday evenings from 7-9 or Thursdays at mid-day 11-1.  Class size is limited to 8 students so register early.

Vive la FAMILY Revolution!

by Anne Schanz, Ph.D., LPC • October 27, 2010

I am so excited about our newly defined focus. FAMILIES!

It is about time we realized that the whole family unit must be involved if we want to make lasting  lifestyle changes.  One individual deciding to make changes  doesn’t work well.  I have experienced trying to improve my diet only to fail when everyone else in the house is still eating fast food, chips and sweets.  If the whole family gradually embarked on changing  eating patterns, what would that look like?  Could we all be healthier?

Where do we go for this kind of support?  The  Alive and Healthy Institute!  We offer support for individuals actually living in families and communities to make sustainable changes in their lifestyle habits.  We have the team, we have the systematic program that has been around for thousands of years updated with modern science and techniques, all we need is you.

Join us!

Stay tuned.  We have new and exciting healthy lifestyle programs coming in January!

Relieving Pain and Fighting Inflammation—a Holistic Approach

by Theresa Oswald, MD • October 4, 2010

Inflammation is one of the body’s natural ways of protecting itself. However like any process in the body, it is possible to have too much of a good thing. Too much inflammation in the body has been linked to a number of medical conditions such as:
• Heart disease
• Stroke
• Cancer
• Chronic obstructive lung diseases (emphysema and bronchitis)
• Asthma
• Chronic pain
• Type 2 diabetes
• Inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn’s or ulcerative colitis)
• Alzheimer’s disease
• Diseases where the immune system attacks the body, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, or scleroderma

Research shows that we can influence how much inflammation we have in our bodies through exercise, stress management and proper nutrition.

Omega 3 essential fatty acids are one of the best ways to curb inflammation naturally. These fatty acids are called essential because our bodies do not made them. EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) are two principal fatty acids.

DHA can be obtained from marine sources other than fish, such as algae (where the fish get their omega 3s). EPA and DHA are the good fats (polyunsaturated) that are bodies use to reduce inflammation and as building blocks for brain health. The body can only manufacture limited amounts of EPA and DHA from another essential fatty acid, alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) — found in flaxseed oil, canola oil, soy oil and walnut oil.

Omega 3 essential fatty acids work best when they are combined with reduction of omega 6 essential fatty acids and trans fats in the diet. Foods rich in omega 6 essential fatty acids and trans fats are red meat (especially grain fed), high fat dairy like ice cream and cheese (milk and low fat yogurt are great), partially hydrogenated oils, corn, cottonseed, grape seed, peanut, safflower, soy and sunflower oils and foods with long shelf life (chips, cracker). Instead use olive oil and fresh whole unprocessed foods whenever possible.

Alive & Healthy in 2010 — Don’t Stop Thinking About Tomorrow

by Blair Lewis • December 21, 2009

A New Year is Coming…

In 2010, the Alive and Healthy Institute is going to begin a revolution in the way family members relate to one another.  Our mission is to create a place where families can find the resources and tools they need to be a loving and supportive family in this digital age.

Today, families need a double income requiring both parents to work, leaving a major void at home.  With families constantly on-the-go, neither the children nor their parents are faring very well.  This is quite evident when:

•  Divorce is at an all time high.

•  Parents are chronically stressed and exhausted, often impatient and angry.

•  There is an increased use of prescription medications and street drugs in younger and younger children.

•  The list is ongoing, including signs of growing gang affiliations, rising teen pregnancies rates, and more parents and children feel lost and adrift.

Alive and Healthy is committed to reversing this trend. We have gathered a core team of professionals to make this a reality.  Each team member brings a wealth of experience that offers targeted and systematic solutions for family stress.

Where will we focus?

With families and individuals that are overwhelmed.

Foundationally, we begin with communication skills, personal and family stress management techniques, nutrition and offering sustainable solutions for physical and mental health problems with natural medicines.

We have developed tools to create a custom ‘map’ of the issues facing each family.  These tools make it easy to prioritize the problem areas and ‘map’ the solutions.  This results in a concrete plan of simple, specific action items to make the changes needed.

Once your family has a ‘map’, our staff will identify and provide the people, skills, education and coaching needed to help your family to a greater sense of unity and well-being.   Can you imagine having time to talk with one another and live and love together as a family?  It is possible and you can start learning how to do this right now.

What is the challenge for Alive and Healthy?

To increase our services, we will soon need a larger facility.  We need a place for our community to have fellowship, to learn cooking, eating together, talking together, solving issues, and supporting each other.

We need benefactors and supporters who share our passion for this revolution.  Some of our families will be able to pay for services, some will not.  We do not want to deny services to anyone.

Becoming the change we wish to see in the world…

A world of healthy and happy families and individuals is our goal.  We believe our entire world will change if we just start here.  Please join us.  We look forward to seeing you at Alive and Healthy.

Our core team to make this happen includes:

Blair Lewis, is our spiritual director and classical homeopath.  He is also a well-known author and expert in yoga science and Ayurveda.

Theresa Oswald, MD is our medical director and offers holistic, integrative solutions using natural and conventional medicine.  She is a Diplomate of the American Board of Integrative Holistic Medicine and is also board certified in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation and Pain Management.  Since she is a wife and mother, she knows the challenges of blending family and work priorities.

Anne Schanz, PhD is a psychotherapist, educator, speaker, who has developed many targeted behavioral treatments for improved interpersonal relationships with compassion for self at the core.  She is a mom, grandmother and wife.

Fritz Petree is an expert in learning strategies, brain science and our family ‘Map Maker.’  He is an expert in leading a person or organization from being overwhelmed with complexities to specific action-oriented solutions.  A wonderful dad and husband, Fritz helps all of us get things done.

As Fleetwood Mac used to sing, “Don’t Stop Thinking About Tomorrow, it will soon be here.

Please join us today and walk into a tomorrow that is bright and shiny.

An Experiment

by Theresa Oswald, MD • November 11, 2009

There is so much debate about health care reform and much political posturing. The problem, from my viewpoint, is that the conceptual framework they are using for the basis of change is itself catastrophically broken. I am not really interested in health care reform.

I am interested in health care transformation. While healthcare reform seems like a daunting task of immense proportion; healthcare transformation involves each person evaluating their own health and reclaiming their body’s innate power to heal and to be healthy.  Have we forgotten the immense power our bodies have to heal?

Our bodies know exactly what to do to mend our skin after a cut.  Vast arrays of chemical reactions are occurring within us daily to keep our internal ecosystem in balance.  When given the needed ingredients; fresh whole food, clean water, rest, shelter and a clear and calm mind, our bodies can do amazing feats to maintain balance and repair any damage.

How about an experiment of health care transformation where you are the captain of your own health care team, knowing we all come outfitted with all the needed equipment?

I feel Happiness Revolution in the air as we all are empowered to treat ourselves and our health with tender, loving care.
