Continuing our Wellness Journey - Feeling
This week our journey focuses on Feeling, the 6th of 12 keys to wellness in the Wellness Inventory. We experience feelings and emotions from well before the event of our birth. They can be intense, or frightening, or wonderful. They can also be the most misunderstood, and consequently mistreated, gifts we have as human beings. We judge them, repress them, discount them, drug them, worship them, and run from them. Yet, what a bore to be without them! Life fully lived is life filled with feeling!

Women's Health Detective - "How Calcium and Magnesium Can Slow Down Aging" - Nan Fuchs, PhD
If you're like most women and take 1,500 mg of calcium and half as much magnesium, you've got it all backwards. You're getting too much calcium and not enough magnesium. In "How Calcium and Magnesium Can Slow Down Aging" Nan Kathryn Fuchs, Ph.D. shares important facts. Magnesium is needed to carry calcium into your bones.
