Can a Sleep Study Save Your Life?

Carbon dioxide toxicity (2) -300

If you have sleep apnea (you stop breathing while you sleep) a sleep study can most definitely save your life.  However, if you don’t apply the treatment to prevent your sleep apnea, then the sleep study is worthless!

Sleep apnea is deadly!

When you stop breathing during your sleep, your oxygen level drops robbing your body of this life giving nutrient, but that isn’t the worst part.

When you stop breathing, your carbon dioxide level climbs causing an acidic condition in your body that literally fries your brain and all your internal organs!

If you are ignoring your sleep apnea, you MUST be aware that you are risking your life!

Got a death wish?

Sleep apnea will cause: Continue reading article →

Why Is Physical Fitness So Important? Step 3, Have Fun To Keep Moving.

Why is physical fitness so important?

We have already discussed Step 1, Getting Started, and Step 2, Knowing Your Limits.

As long as you are getting into motion habitually and honoring your limits while you stretch them, the only step left is to Keep Moving!

It’s really just that simple.

That doesn’t mean that you should beat yourself up if you fall off of your program!  Hey, if you get back up tomorrow, and have an active day, then you are on the right track!  Allow yourself your resistance, BUT get past it and get moving again!

You haven’t given up until you don’t get back up!  The longer you wait to get moving again, the harder it will be.

Getting back on your program is VICTORY!

All that is required is that you keep on going!  If you can do that, you will see results.

Don’t feel like you need to kill yourself.  You should be able to talk comfortably while you move.  Respect your limits and you will not deplete yourself.

If your health is already compromised, you may not be able to do much at first.  No problem!  As long as you Continue reading article →

Why Is Physical Fitness So Important? Step 2, Know Your Limits!

why is exercise so important

2010 has begun!  In a hurry to get in shape?

You’ve already made your first mistake.

If 2009 wasn’t an active year, your pace should be slow and steady in 2010.  Consistency is the way to achieve ALL your fitness goals.

Pushing yourself might just be your undoing.  Do you know that the first sign of heart disease is often a heart attack?

So, what is your motivation for wanting to get in better shape?

Do you have major health concerns, a family history of heart disease, or do you just want to look better this year?

Your motive for getting in shape might drive you, that’s not a bad thing.  Just don’t make immediate results be the measure of your success.   Whether you’re hoping to look better, feel better or both, the secret is Continue reading article →

What Do You Plan To Do About the Heart Failure Epidemic?

The illustration shows the major signs and sym...

Heart failure is increasing at an alarming rate in the US and around the world.

You should be MUCH more concerned about heart disease than any other health issue, because you are more likely to die of heart disease than any other health concern you may have!

Having said that, I want to STRESS the following FACTS:

 

  • diabetes and sugar intake significantly increase your chance of succumbing to heart disease and heart failure!
  • high blood pressure is a paved road to heart failure!
  • highly processed foods lead to heart failure through weight gain, mal-nutrition, and water retention.
  • inactivity will drain the strength of your muscles, including your HEART MUSCLE.  (So will Statins!)
  • your inability to process your emotions in a healthy way contributes to heart failure as much as every point listed above.
  • sometimes the first sign of heart disease is a HEART ATTACK!
  • most women who have a heart attack succumb to heart failure within one year.
  • heart failure is very difficult to diagnose, so you may not even hear the term until you are fighting for your life in intensive care.
  • the CDC says that 20% of patients die within one year of a heart failure diagnosis, and 50% die within five years.
  • young people are also succumbing to heart disease, including heart failure.

Are you going to wait for your doctor to sound the alarm about heart disease and heart failure? Continue reading article →

Does Your New Years Resolution Involve Creating Happiness?

New Years Resolution

No matter what you want to accomplish in the new year, it is all about greater happiness, isn’t it?

I am hoping that your New Year’s Resolution is not the only goal you set this year.  Goal setting is something I do on a regular basis, and I’ve taught my children to do it.

If life is worth living, it is worth setting goals, achieving them and celebrating your success!

Do you have any goal in your goals journal that is NOT about greater happiness?

So what is it about your New Years Resolution that makes it different from all your other goals?

If you are like most people, your New Year’s Resolutions is probably one of the goals that you never find the time to get to!

The “To Dos” that nag at you are the ones that you know you SHOULD get to.  When you don’t, you beat yourself up.

Bad habits are at the top of the list of things you never get around to tackling.

Don’t overwhelm yourself.  If you have more than one bad habit you’d like to get rid of …  Continue reading article →

Can’t Get Into the Holidays? Do You Know the Symptoms of Depression?

Update December 4, 2012

In 2009 I was giving conscious effort to my struggle with depression!

Putting in the time to address this huge concern without harming myself with drugs was a large factor in the huge success I’ve had with my personal battle with depression over these past 3 years!

Reading this post makes me realize just how far I’ve come!

The insight that much of what I thought of as “depression” was actually post traumatic stress syndrome helped me in my healing process.  In the new year I’d like to spend some time exploring what PTS is and what you can do about it with you here on Heart Failure Solutions.

PTSS/PTSD effect many more people than get help.  It doesn’t necessarily require drugs to heal from post traumatic stress, but it does require awareness!

The good news is that these days Carrie Tucker, The Life Breath Coach, lives with such passion all day everyday that I NEVER think about depression!

I do NOT have a personal battle with depression!  NONE!

Finding Purpose and Serving from your heart is a powerful cure for depression!

I’ve still got a business to run and 3 kids at home to parent, but I do not battle with depression any longer!

Join The Life Breath Club and learn how to utilize your Sacred Breath to find YOUR Purpose!

This information isn’t in any of my available books yet, but you can ask about it on our weekly coaching calls!

It’s free to join!  Check out the link at the bottom of this page or sign up in the side bar!

(December 18th, 2009)

Ever get over-whelmed?

There is SO much going on in my life with running my business, single parenting my children, and the increased chaos from the holidays!  Overwhelm is down right depressing!

I’m not about to head to my doctor and see what kind of medication he can give me to mask my symptoms of depression.

Depression is my personal rival!

Overwhelm gets to the best of us, but when you begin to experience symptoms of depression, it’s time to nurture yourself and reach out to your support system.

Do you know the symptoms of depression? Continue reading article →
