The Commandments Code of Health :

To drink enough water, to eat protein, fruits and vegetables, to exercise, to have a healthy lifestyle, to relax may be enough but lets examine this ancient code of health.

In the old times, like now, There were diseases and people suffered and died from it,  The Jewish people designed a code (Exodus 20:2-17 )that keep them healthier than other tribes. 

With time this have been a moral code for the western civilization, but regarding of morality lets look at it in a wellness and health context:

 " 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment "(Matthew 22: 36-37) summarizes commandment one to four. They promote relaxation and peace that are good for your general health.

ONE : "You shall have no other gods before Me " or "Love God with all your heart" and TWO: "You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain" :

If you are in contact with God, the Universe, the Universal Mind, Spirit, whatever you want to call "I am", the energy force through pray, or meditation in any of its forms,  if you know your priorities you can relax and this is good for your heart, body and mind.

THREE: 'Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.' : Giving yoursealf some time to be in contact with the universal mind, God, or the Universe, will create feelings of relaxation and peace and will atune your intuition. A day of rest, a relaxing vacation will improve your overall health.

"And the second is : 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments" (

Matthew 22:38-40

); This new commandment summarizes the fourth to tenth commandments and promote relaxation, peace of mind, community and friendship, avoids getting hurt by fighting and avoids sexually transmitted diseases.

FOURTH: 'Honor your father and your mother: If you get along with mom and dad you will live happier, more relax, again better for your overall health. 

 FIVE: 'You shall not murder.' : If you do, you can go to jail, the conditions there are terrible for good health. If a person kills because of violence or war this can give feelings of shame, remorse, anger, acute stress disorder, nightmares, lack of sleep that will create stress that can induce you to use drugs and/ or alcohol and become addict and this can create health problems by itself: cirrhosis, anemia, neurosis, addiction, depletes your vitamin B and creates nervous problems, lack of strength, impotency, tremors, delusions, bouts of uncontrolled anger etc etc. Not healthy.

SIX: 'You shall not commit adultery" : People in ancient times observed malformation in children born of incestuous relationships, for that, they prohibited this kind of interactions. They also noticed that monogamy - even if they had sex five times a day eight days a week - avoided sexual transmitted diseases as  syphilis, aids, chanchro, clamydia, sex warts, venereal herpes etc.

SEVEN: 'You shall not steal.' : Again, if you do that you can go to jail ( look at commandment five).

EIGHT: 'You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor" or " You shall not lie" : , Lies can create stress and depending of the kind of lie, it can get you into trouble with your parents, friends or society producing stress.

NINE AND TEN: "You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor's" : Envy a mix of anger and fear can create stress if you do not process it and release it. If you  act in coveting somebody's wife or husband , you risk to get hurt or in the worst of the cases get killed like in the movies "Unfaithful" and "Intersection”

Hiya! So on Thursday night I got smacked with cold symptoms (sneezing, inflamed throat, stuffy nose) and I had a forensics speaking competition on Saturday. I was pretty good all day, just a little stuffy sounding, but within the half an hour of my final round speech, I lost my voice. I sound like a dying goat. I've read your masterpost and I've been drinking water, but I can't hum at all. I took Motrin before bed but I woke up still unable to speak. Advice?

Sadly, there's just no miracle way to get your voice back.  Lots of sleep, lots of rest, warm showers with lots of steam... If you have a humidifier, get some of the Vicks fluid to put into the water--I've got that running in my house right now, it's so helpful and soothing! From my experience, you've just got to ride it out, stay gentle and safe, and don't push yourself too far.  Recovery can be so frustrating, because it feels like you'll never get back to your healthy self, but just be patient with yourself.  Wish I could give you more advice, but hopefully this helps a bit!

How to beat sickness!

So I've been studying the body and whatnot. I got sick Friday. So I decided to do a little "test" with myself. Our body is a perfect machine, when it's working properly. Everything our body does is for a reason. When we get sick, something that is bad enters our body. Our white blood cells kick a gear and start fighting. This fighting is manifested in fever, at times swelling. So the fever cooks up the bacteria and boom it's gone. When it's getting rid of it we start to cough and have a runny nose. Spit it, blow your nose. Don't ever just swallow it back. So my suggestion is to help your body with fruits, vitamin c, lean protein and lots of fluid. If you drink a lot of water or fluids you will be flushing out the bacteria, by peeing and making your sputum less thick and it will help you spit it out more. My symptoms were starting to be bad on Friday night, I was pretty bad Saturday and I am pretty good Sunday morning! Why go out and buy fever reducers? You are making your body work extra hard to fight the cold, why do you buy cough suppressants? You are keeping all that bacteria in your lungs and chest. What's funny is that my bf was a bit upset because he thought I was hurting myself by not taking pills. He started his sickness Tuesday, yesterday he was still coughing. So save your money and let your body do the rest when you are sick! -PS, if you have the flu, it's a virus, you just let it run it's course! And a high fever is 103 and above, then you can help control it, anything under is still fine! ----- I'm not a doctor this is my opinion only and you are welcome to try it----

For the first time...

I have a legit problem with my health. It has been the scariest experience I have had in awhile. Something is wrong with my blood...causing me to be highly anemic. This has led me to feel exhausted all the time...I get out of breath when I take one flight of stairs..,I am constantly hungry and never satisfied. I don't know yet what is causing it but I know one thing. I serve a God that is an almighty healer. I believe according to Isaiah 53:5, by his stripes, I am healed. I believe that God is working through me with this and I need to trust him!
