This of course applies to all industry sectors, but coupled with the trend for aircraft OEMs to seek greater value than ever from their suppliers in the race to achieve increased market share, the issue becomes even more pertinent to aerospace CNC machining. With the priorities for airframes having to be primarily weight and safety, another growing trend is for aerospace designers to produce plans that combine as many different parts as is possible within single components.The only downside here is the inherent part complexity this creates, which in turn leads to a reliance on multiple machining operations. To combat this difficulty, the initial thrust of machining optimisation at many manufacturers in the aerospace supply chain centres on the machine tool itself. Here, machine tool manufacturers have made great strides in recent years, bringing to market a number of machines that offer the integration of multiple functions, including sub-processes (such as probing and balancing), allowing the workpiece to be completed on a single machine with as few set-ups and tool changes as possible.Cost savings in aerospace CNC machining.Further research into aerospace components has shown that the application of high pressure coolant offers significant benefits. Applying coolant at just 70 bar, for instance, gives an average 20% increase in speed and 50% increase in tool life, using only components and features that are standard on many machines. Ultra high pressures (up to 1,000 bar) are even more effective but additional fixturing is required. Correct nozzle positioning and sighting have considerable effects on productivity, chip handling and the elimination of the peening process to provide clear cost savings, particularly when machining critical aerospace materials such as Ti6Al4V. With hard materials, heat tends to exit via the insert rather than the workpiece. With certain inserts this has limited effect when they are new, but creates an enormous problem as they wear. Hence the need to accurately predict tool life has never been more vital.Uncontrolled tool life can lead to large increases in surface tensile stresses, compressive sub-surface layer size, depth of plastic deformation and strain hardening, particularly at higher cutting speeds. Intermediate stage machining (ISM), which as the source of the greatest production costs offers maximum scope for productivity improvements – during ISM up to 80% of metal is removed when turning heat resistant superalloys (HRSAs). </p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://mazurroms.info/cnc-machining-productivity,html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Flight and Hotel Package Deals – What You Can Expect With These Kinds of Travel Discount Offers</title> <link>https://mazurroms.info/flight-and-hotel-package-deals-what-you-can-expect-with-these-kinds-of-travel-discount-offers,html</link> <comments>https://mazurroms.info/flight-and-hotel-package-deals-what-you-can-expect-with-these-kinds-of-travel-discount-offers,html#comments</comments> <pubDate>Mon, 17 Apr 2023 20:32:48 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Aerospace & Defense]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://mazurroms.info/?p=67</guid> <description><![CDATA[Whether you want to travel to the next city over or the other side of the globe, you must first pay for airfare and a hotel room.

Instead of booking each one individually, why not book them both at the same time and save a bit of money? No matter what your travel plans are like, flight and hotel package deals are always worth looking into.You’ve probably seen it before: the option to “book airfare with hotel” when using a travel search engine. Have you really looked into what is available and compared the value of each offer?Most airlines and hotels participate in this kind of price bundling. It’s not hard at all to find inexpensive packages for popular tourist destinations, like Vegas, San Diego, Orlando, New Orleans, Atlantic City, Memphis, etc. You can even find flight and hotel package deals for international destinations, whether you want to stay in North American and experience an exotic beach like Cancun or the increasingly growing Toronto, or head to Europe, Australia, Africa, Asia, or the Middle East.How many nights can you stay at your destination with a bundled package? They can vary anywhere from flight + 2 nights per person to flight + 5 nights per person. If you don’t already have a specific destination in mind, just take a look at the daily or weekly deals on travel websites.Don’t make the mistake of thinking that only cheap, low-quality hotels are available in discount vacation offers. You’ll be surprised at some of the high-quality accommodation you can get at an affordable price with airfare. In popular locations like Orlando and Vegas, some of the big-name resorts offer the cheapest rooms. Depending on when and where you could go, you could end up staying in a nice, cozy bed and breakfast. If you’re interested in a package deal but haven’t heard of the hotel before, simply read some reviews on it.What to Watch Out for With Flight and Hotel Package DealsIt’s easiest to find cheap vacation deals when you are traveling alone or with one person, as prices tend to be based on double occupancy. If you are traveling with more than one person, look for group or family packages.Also, be sure to read the terms and conditions before considering any flight and hotel package deals to see if anything else, like car rental or hotel/airport shuttle is included. Will you be getting any free meals at the hotel? Or free drinks at the resort? If you find a good deal, it’s best to book it ASAP, as a lot of vacation packages are subject to availability and can be discontinued at any time.Plan your trip online, and apply promo codes to your order. You might be able to save even more with coupons that can be used with flight and hotel package deals. There are a variety of offers available online – so start you search today. </p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://mazurroms.info/flight-and-hotel-package-deals-what-you-can-expect-with-these-kinds-of-travel-discount-offers,html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Blockchain & IoT – How “Crypto” Is Likely Going To Herald Industry 4.0</title> <link>https://mazurroms.info/blockchain-iot-how-crypto-is-likely-going-to-herald-industry-4-0,html</link> <comments>https://mazurroms.info/blockchain-iot-how-crypto-is-likely-going-to-herald-industry-4-0,html#comments</comments> <pubDate>Sat, 01 Apr 2023 17:27:06 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Crypto blockchain]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://mazurroms.info/?p=65</guid> <description><![CDATA[Whilst most people only started to learn about “blockchain” because of Bitcoin, its roots – and applications – go much deeper than that.Blockchain is a technology unto itself.

It powers Bitcoin, and is essentially the reason why *so many* new ICO’s have flooded the market – creating an “ICO” is ridiculously easy (no barriers to entry).The point of the system is to create a decentralized database – which essentially means that rather than relying on the likes of “Google” or “Microsoft” to store data, a network of computers (generally operated by individual people) are able to act in the same way as a larger company.To understand the implications of this (and thus where the technology could take industry) – you need to look at how the system works on a fundamental level.Created in 2008 (1 year before Bitcoin), it is an open source software solution. This means its source code can be downloaded edited by anyone. However, it must be noted that the central “repository” can only be changed by particular individuals (so the “development” of the code is not a free for all basically).The system works with what’s known as a merkle tree – a type of data graph which was created to provide versioned data access to computer systems.Merkle trees have been used to great effect in a number of other systems; most notably “GIT” (source code management software). Without getting too technical, it basically stores a “version” of a set of data. This version is numbered, and thus can be loaded any time a user wishes to recall the older version of it. In the case of software development, it means that a set of source code can be updated across multiple systems.The way it works – which is to store a huge “file” with updates of a central data set – is basically what powers the likes of “Bitcoin” and all the other “crypto” systems. The term “crypto” simply means “cryptographic”, which is the technical term for “encryption”.Irrespective of its core workings, the true benefit of wider “on-chain” adoption is almost certainly the “paradigm” that it provides to industry.There’s been an idea called “Industry 4.0″ floating around for several decades. Often conflated with “Internet of Things”, the idea is that a new layer of “autonomous” machinery could be introduced to create even more effective manufacturing, distribution and delivery techniques for businesses & consumers. Whilst this has often been harked to, it’s never really been adopted.Many pundits are now looking at the technology as a way to facilitate this change. Reason being that the interesting thing about “crypto” is that – as especially evidenced by the likes of Ethereum – the various systems which are built on top of it can actually be programmed to work with a layer of logic.This logic is really what IoT / Industry 4.0 has missed thus far – and why many are looking at “blockchain” (or an equivalent) to provide a base-level standard for the new ideas moving forward. This standard will provide companies with the ability to create “decentralized” applications that empower intelligent machinery to create more flexible and effective manufacturing processes. </p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://mazurroms.info/blockchain-iot-how-crypto-is-likely-going-to-herald-industry-4-0,html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>The Court Determines Child Custody</title> <link>https://mazurroms.info/the-court-determines-child-custody,html</link> <comments>https://mazurroms.info/the-court-determines-child-custody,html#comments</comments> <pubDate>Sat, 01 Apr 2023 06:24:59 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Child Custody]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://mazurroms.info/?p=63</guid> <description><![CDATA[A child custody proceeding is any case involving child protection, adoption, guardianship, termination of parental rights or voluntary placement of your child.The support order will be based on the child’s needs, obligor’s ability to pay, custody arrangements and the child support guidelines.

The Criminal Code makes it an offence to abduct a child to spite a custody order. A custody order establishes both the custody and parenting time arrangement for the children. Your child custody order is also confidential.When an unmarried mother has a child, the mother has legal custody of that child until a court says otherwise.During divorce, marriage, or annulment proceedings, the issue of child custody often becomes a matter for the court to determine. The Court must consider the following factors in every child custody decision under the law regarding the best interest of the child. The court retains the power to alter the custody arrangements until the child turns 18 or is emancipated.You may contest custody, child support, and alimony and property division by appearing in court and filing appropriate legal papers. At the hearing, the court shall hear evidence to determine whether the child custody and support determination should be modified. The fact that one parent has been the child’s primary caretaker is often considered but is not enough to guarantee a custody award. It is not that unusual for middle class parents to spend $60,000 on a divorce and child custody fight. Traditionally, divorce in the United States results in one parent being awarded primary custody and decision making for a child.RightsEach parent shares the rights and responsibility for the care, custody, companionship, and support of their children. Some states, such as Arizona, have fathers rights groups specifically dedicated to helping fathers obtain custody of their children (arizonafathersrights.com for example).DefinitionsCustody means that a parent has legal custodial rights and responsibilities toward the child.Joint child custody means that both parents have the legal custodial rights and responsibilities toward a child. Joint custody allows both parents to have a say in the child’s upbringing. There is no evidence to support that a presumption of joint custody is in the best interests of children. A study found that only when parents were still actively fighting did joint custody exacerbate children’s feelings of being torn between parents. However, when both parents favor joint custody, it can be a good solution for the children. Some parents have chosen a joint-custody arrangement in which the child spends an approximately equal amount of time with both parents. Some states award joint custody in which the judge simply divides the child’s time between the parents. Joint custody does not mean simply alternating where the child lives from time to time. In fact, there may be legal joint custody, but the child may live with only one parent.Legal child custody includes the right to make decisions about the child’s education, religion, health care, and other important concerns. A child may be placed in foster care while a custody case is pending. Legal custody means the right to determine the child’s upbringing, including education, health care, and religious training.Physical custody and residence means the routine daily care and control and where the child lives. Physical child custody is awarded to one parent with whom the child will live most of the time. In most cases, both parents continue to share legal child custody but one parent gains physical child custody. There is also a presumption that it is in the child’s best interest to be in the custody of a parent over a non-parent.Visitation rights allow the non-custodial parent (the person without child custody) time to spend with their child. A common arrangement is that one parent gets custody of the child and the other parent is given visitation rights.EvaluationA child custody evaluation is a report written by a neutral professional about you, the other parent, and your children. It is usually not necessary that formal psychological tests be administered to each parent in the context of a child-custody evaluation. The primary purpose and focus of the custody and/or visitation evaluation is to determine what is in the best interests of the child. Comprehensive child custody evaluations generally require an evaluation of all parents/guardians and children, as well as observations of interactions between them. The children are also evaluated in a custody/visitation evaluation.AttorneyBecause of the complexity of child custody matters and the importance of the outcome, it may be advisable to contact an attorney. The attorney should know several child custody evaluators or guardian ad litems that they have worked with successfully. If you proceed with a child custody action without an attorney, you are acting as your own attorney.In a child custody dispute, there are rarely winners, frequently everyone is a loser, and the biggest losers are often the children. When women fear losing custody of children the stress can be overwhelming. However, in many cases, women are favored as holding custody of their children. </p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://mazurroms.info/the-court-determines-child-custody,html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>The Effective HR Manager</title> <link>https://mazurroms.info/the-effective-hr-manager,html</link> <comments>https://mazurroms.info/the-effective-hr-manager,html#comments</comments> <pubDate>Fri, 31 Mar 2023 20:23:49 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Management]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://mazurroms.info/?p=61</guid> <description><![CDATA[Winning the respect, trust and confidence of line managers and making a differenceAsk many line managers what they think of HR managers and you will get a variety of views from the positive to the most damning.Examples are:- “Excellent.

Very professional.”- “Very responsive, supportive and helpful”- “Great if I can ever get hold of them”- “Talk their own language. Not really in touch with the needs of the business. A bit flakey”- “You mean the dead hand of HR!”As the issue of effective HR management has grown in importance over the years so has the need for HR managers to be both responsive and proactive in meeting the needs of their developing organisations.Clearly it’s important that an organisation’s employees are paid on time, they are able to access the benefits they are entitled to and can receive straightforward help and advice from HR when needed.This operational piece of the HR management responsibility needs to be reliable and responsive in every respect. Getting the basics right is all important.So is partnering with line managers in recruitment activities, performance management processes, training and personal development provision. These are all very necessary, core elements of the HR function’s role. Organisation’s have every right to expect that HR managers will be proficient in these areas.But what about gaining the respect, trust and confidence of line managers, over and above these basics? How can HR managers really add value? Here are eight tips.- VisionHR managers need to clearly understand the organisation’s vision and challenge the CEO if it is not clear. They need to create an aligned vision for HR to support the corporate vision.They need to draft a vision, share it with selected line managers, check it, refine it and communicate it both to the HR team and line managers. They need to be clear on HR’s vision for future success, and clear on how it is aligned to the organisation’s overall vision.- ObjectivesHR managers must be clear on their organisation’s objectives. They need to put clear, measurable objectives and milestones to the HR vision. They need to make their objectives concrete, tangible and deliverable with time frames attached.They need to announce them and ‘stick’ to them. They need to communicate their success in achieving them. They need to be seen as “business like”.- StrategyHR managers need to understand their organisation’s strategy. They need to be clear on their HR strategy to deliver their objectives. How will HR be positioned within the organisation as a whole? How will it work alongside the business to deliver the strategy of the business? How will it marry the day to day needs of the business with the longer term development needs?How will it operate with closer external specialists and suppliers? What short, medium and long term plans does it have to really add value to the business?What changes will need to be made to deliver the strategy?HR managers need to answer these questions, share their strategy and plans with the business and their standing will automatically be enhanced!- ResourcesHR is in the business of attracting, acquiring and developing the RIGHT people. HR managers will need to assess the quality of the organisation’s existing people and compare their current capabilities to the capabilities required by the organisation in the future. That’s why they need to understand the organisation’s vision, objectives and strategy so well.They need to compare the current competency framework to a desired competency framework, say three years from now. What will be different in the requirement of the organisation’s people? How will this impact the type of people the organisation will need, where in the business, and when?HR managers need to create a strategic HR development plan to deliver the right people resources to the organisation to meet both its current and future needs. The use of performance management, personal development and capability management systems will help them to do this accurately. They must get transparency of the organisation’s human resources to plan effectively.- StructureHR managers need to structure the HR function in the most appropriate way.They should centralise those activities which are core to the whole business. This will include policy development, recruitment, compensation and benefits, performance management, personal development and disciplinary processes. Many of these are governed by legislation and need to be corporate wide, although there may have to be regional or county variations.HR business managers should be allocated to lines of business to work closely alongside line managers to create and deliver specific interventions to meet their ongoing needs. These people need to be seen as true business partners adding specialist knowledge and skills to line managers. In a sense they are internal consultants clearly understanding the business as well as best practice in HR management and development in the market place.- SystemsHR managers should employ “fit for purpose” systems for both HR management and HR development. This does not mean the most sophisticated, costly and “heavy weight” systems. They should choose systems that can be easily integrated with one another, are customisable and require little management time.Systems need to be user friendly as the trend is for managers to use them to ‘self-serve’ more and more these days.Systems should work together holistically enabling the organisation to obtain transparency of its entire human resource, to enable it to adopt the best people acquisition, retention and development process.- Knowledge and SkillsHR managers need to ensure that they and their team members really understand the business they work for, including its:- Market-place- Customers- Products/ services- Routes to market- Competition- Major commercial challenges- Threats, e.g. legal constraints- Vision, strategy and objectives- Plans for the future – short, medium and long term- Culture and values- Leadership and management style beliefsMany HR managers fall down because they lack essential knowledge of the business and fail to use the language and terminologies which clearly show that they understand the core business and how it works.They should avoid “HR speak” which really turns off line managers. This may be helpful shorthand to HR professionals but it is an anathema for line managers and their staff. HR managers should focus on the objective, tangible, concrete, business related issues not just the softer, behavioural and more subjective issues.They should gain respect for their knowledge of HR issues as well as the tangible issues faced by the business. After all, human resources are just one element of tackling these issues. When handling people related problems HR managers should go back to the vision, objectives and strategy of the business before embarking on solutions.HR managers should expand their knowledge to include strategic thinking, change management, business planning and organisation development. Oh and finally HR managers and their teams need to become very IT savvy! They are usually not!- Leadership and ManagementThe HR manager’s role is to challenge where necessary the behaviours exhibited by managers, who clearly do not ‘walk the talk’. They are to a large extent guardians of the culture and values and need to be seen to be adopting this role.HR managers should ‘educate’ senior line managers on modern management thinking, helping them to move away from a command and control approach to a more collaborative, consensual working style which truly engages and motivates employees at all levels to give of their best.The job of today’s managers is to recognise and release talent at all levels not to overlook it or squash it. Performance management systems, personal development programs and reward systems all need to focus on the behaviors and competence required of managers to imbed the corporate values and culture into the organisation. It is the job of the HR manager to ensure that this happens.So how well have you developed your skills in these eight areas of expertise as an HR manager?

She had been to Estonia before and therefore knew Estonian life in general. But she was extremely surprised when I told her that Estonia has almost 200 years of health and spa tourism experience. And when she heard about our price-level and different opportunities of treatments and services, she was totally speechless. After recovering from my praising speech, she asked me why don’t we promote local spa services and opportunities…”This is a story from Sabina Kaukis, a spa blogger in Estonia.So, it means that Estonia has extremely valuable spa traditions, resources and opportunities. Spa tourism could be the most special selling argument of Estonian tourism. But is our spa sector good enough in marketing and promotion?Enterprise Estonia, which is responsible for overall promotion of Estonian tourism abroad, has chosen spa and wellness tourism as one of the focuses how to attract foreign tourist to Estonia. Their introductory brochure Wellness Holidays in Estonia brings out:</p><p>that our sauna could be called a Nordic spa – the bather warms himself at 100-degree Celsius and then whips himself with birch or juniper branches, charges into cold water with his body steaming, and cleans the skin with salt, honey, milk, and plant infusions;</p><p>how Estonian tourism farms allow foreigners to experience our native health culture – guests are fed with locally grown organic foods and the vacationer may augment these with ecologically friendly, classically healthy activities such as hikes in the forests and bogs, canoe trips, or horseback riding;</p><p>the variety of different environments for spa and wellness vacation – from rough beaches to top resort hotels, from country spas to pure outdoor experiences;</p><p>of course the uniqueness of Estonian mud – on 19th century in became clear to spa operators that in addition to water, air, warmth and light, the earth itself was extremely beneficial for improving a person’s health;</p><p>that there is something for every visitor – medical spas are popular next to wellness spas, adventurous water and theme parks, hiking trails, herb farms, and manor homes.<br />These are some keywords how Estonia describes itself as a spa and wellness destination. Soon we`ll take a look at how spa companies promote their services.And by the way, it appears that nowhere else in the world there are not so many spas per capita – more than 40 spas for 1.3 million people. Even more, small Kuressaare town (15,170 inhabitants) has 1230 spa-hotel places – probably the most spa-filled town in the world…First paragraph from SpaaBlog. </p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://mazurroms.info/selling-points-of-estonian-spa-and-wellness-tourism,html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>The Mind-Body-Spirit Connection – The Pathway to Self Healing</title> <link>https://mazurroms.info/the-mind-body-spirit-connection-the-pathway-to-self-healing,html</link> <comments>https://mazurroms.info/the-mind-body-spirit-connection-the-pathway-to-self-healing,html#comments</comments> <pubDate>Fri, 31 Mar 2023 16:20:55 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Mind Body Spirit]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://mazurroms.info/?p=57</guid> <description><![CDATA[What are the causes of illness?Thoughts, attitudes, and beliefs trigger a range of emotions from happiness to sadness, joy to despair.

Emotions affect the body, either positively (strengthening it) or adversely (weakening it).Emotional stress is a big factor in causing physical distress–such as headaches, neck, shoulder and back pain. Hawaiian shaman, Serge Kahili King, is the author of several books on self-healing. He discusses the effects of stress in his book, Instant Healing Now. He emphasizes: “Chronic stress held in the body for long periods of time can lead to major pain and serious illness.”Intense fears can cause breakdown of cellular tissue, or blockages in vital organs. Unresolved emotions from our past can be buried deeply within vital organs, muscles and bones. Ongoing stressful situations pile on emotions into weakened areas. Eventually, the immune system is compromised and cannot function normally. The body begins to break down and can become diseased.Doubts and fears are based on negative beliefs. Negative “beliefs” can cause illnesses. Strong beliefs, such as going out with wet hair will cause a cold; or, thinking: “If someone sneezes/coughs on me I will catch their cold” — can create a cold.The lost healing arts of the ancestors In ancient cultures, the medicine man or shaman used a holistic, mind-body-spirit approach, which meant complete healing of the patient on all levels–physically, emotionally, and spiritually. But now, we rely solely on physicians to heal our bodies. We have lost the necessary co-treatment of mind and spirit.Limitations of our culture’s healing practices While physicians are dedicated to easing pain, suffering, and saving lives–traditional medical training is limited to the treatment of physical symptoms. The only choices a doctor usually has are surgery and medications. In many cases, surgery can be life-saving. Medications can help to stabilize the patient, as in insulin treatment and high-blood pressure medications.Yet, invasive techniques and pills aren’t the answer for everyone. Serious side-effects can and often do occur from standard medical options. Deepak Chopra, M.D., former Chief of Staff at New England Memorial Hospital, is a prolific author of books on the mind-body connection. In his tape series “Magical Mind, Magical Body” he mentions a report in an AMA Medical Journal, which stated that 30% of all illnesses are a direct result of prescribed medication. Others purport it to being higher, as high as 50%. Add to that the medication mistakes, and bacterial dangers of our hospitals, which do cause many unnecessary serious illnesses and deaths.What we need to know modern medicine and the holistic healing approachDr. Chopra and a few other well-known physicians now embrace the holistic approach to healing as a way to expand the impact and effectiveness of conventional medicine. They have discovered that when emotional cause of an illness is also dealt with in some way, a patient is more apt to be completely healed, with no recurrence of the problem.Dr. Chopra believes that correctly channeled, the mind has enormous power. It can make us depressed or joyful, sluggish or dynamic. He tells about a researcher who visited a ward of heart attack patients to discover if emotional distress might be a factor in heart disease. When interviewed, each patient told a story about a life situation that had “broken their heart.”Dr. Chopra teaches that every cell in the body has consciousness. He says that you do not think with your brain alone. “Cells in the body pick up the slightest shift of mood and they respond accordingly. Think confidently and your body becomes strong for you. Think negatively and your body goes weak.” Dr. Chopra also says that cells have a limited shelf life. Before dying, each cell must program its consciousness into the new cell that takes its place. If the dying cell has taken on a program of disease or damage, this message gets imprinted or passed on into the freshly birthed cell. He stresses that cellular memory can be changed. Reprogramming can be done to imprint replacement cells with health and vigor instead of disease or injury.Patients who feel hopeless might have more difficulty in healing because they already feel like victims. However, when it is discovered that a past emotional problem set-up an illness, a person then has power over it. The mind can be used to heal the body!Dr. Bernie Siegel, a cancer specialist, is one of many physicians who have begun to look into mind-body connections to pain and illness. He was frustrated by the methods taught in medical school. He felt like a mechanic working on machines, instead of a true healer.Dr. Siegel researched alternative healing methods. In his book, Love, Medicine and Miracles, he says that our state of consciousness and disease are inseparable. He tells many stories about his patients and how their minds influenced illness and healing, dying or living. He emphasizes that he has seen time and time again, how we sensitize the target organs of our bodies in a form of negative biofeedback. Dr. Siegel now includes visualizations, affirmations, art therapy, and understanding the messages of dreams in his healing work.Andrew Weil, M.D., author of Spontaneous Healing, is another physician/author teaching about the mind-body-spirit connection. Dr. Weil says that spontaneous healing is not a miracle or lucky exception. It is the result of the natural healing system that is our birthright. He believes that stress and negative influences are the cause of many illnesses. He studied botany and uses of healing herbs because he had a problem with prescribing traditional medicine–about which he states:• “Patients are exposed to risk because medicine is toxic and can create serious side effects.”• “Prescribed medications strengthened disease processes instead of resolving them.”Dr Bruce Lipton, a world-famous cell biologist, author of The Biology of Beliefs, states that we do not have to believe that we are victims of our genetics. His pioneering work with stem cells proved to him that it is the individual’s environment that causes 95% of distress, pain and illness. He stresses that one can reverse illness through changing ones beliefs; and that one can heal by transforming past memories from negative to positive. His colleague, Gregg Braden, author of The Spontaneous Healing of Beliefs, agrees wholeheartedly.Carolyn Myss, PhD., a medical intuitive, “looks” into a patient’s body and “sees” illness and its cause. In her book, Why People Don’t Heal And How They Can, she states that forgiveness is necessary for healing. Letting go of the past releases patterns locked in the body.Louise Hay recovered from cancer after her teacher helped her to let go of anger and resentment about a childhood rape. In her book: Heal Your Body, Louise teaches that the body tries to alert you to internalized stress through the metaphorical language of illness and pain.The diagnosis of cancer is frightening. But one does not need to die of this disease. In a serious cancer study, researchers interviewed thousands of people who had cancer. They found that many of these people had suffered a great loss, then had buried this unresolved loss deep within. This can be a loss of a loved one, money, or career, or even loss of one’s identity. (Examples: A woman who dedicates herself to husband and family, but has given no credence to her own needs or personal identity. A person who has lost a beloved home to foreclosure. The man who lost most of his money in a stock market recession.)Self-healing, holistic alternativesThose who have a serious physical condition should first seek a medical diagnosis and have diagnostic tests done. Then, take yourself out of the role of the victim of circumstances. You can empower yourself and take control of your life and body. Be intuitively open to discovering a possible emotional cause/connection to your physical problems. To get the process started: meditate daily. Program your dreams. Every night, ask your dreams for information and guidance about your condition. Do this for at least thirty nights in a row. You don’t have to remember your dreams to get help from them. Simply be aware of intuitions that lead you to the right alternative healer, the perfect book, and so on.Read holistic books on self-healing. Seek out alternative healing approaches. Ask your doctor for referrals to alternative health care professionals. A reputable holistic, or alternative healer can work hand-in-hand with a doctors and the medical diagnosis to aid the patient in his or her own healing.Be knowledgeable about your choices. There are so-called “healers” who claim to be professionally trained and certified–but are not. Always request and carefully check the practitioners’ credentials. Be sure to ask how many years of experience they have had and the results achieved. Ask for references from their clients. Check out their websites. Do a Google Search on them.Holistic healing is available for all levels of the self — mind, body and spirit.Some of the following list is broken down into separate categories pertaining to one level of self, yet many of the methods address and affect all levels. The wise person will seek out one or more from each category.Spirit:• Prayer• Meditation• Healing Visualizations• Affirmations• Guided Imagery• Healing DreamsBody:There is a vast range of techniques and methods for body health.• Nutrition counseling• Herbal therapies• Homeopathy• Naturopathy• AromatherapyThere is also the field of bodywork, which encompasses hands-on healing methods such as:• Acupuncture• Therapeutic massage• Therapeutic Touch• Cranial-sacral work• Reflexology.• Reiki• Myofascial releaseMind:Traditional psychotherapy and psychiatry are not the only choices one has for transforming emotional states, or for healing past memories.There are many excellent alternative therapies which utilize one’s own unconscious mind to resolve mental, emotional, or physical distress:• Hypnotherapy,• Biofeedback• Psych-K• NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming)• EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) also called Meridian Tapping• Shamanistic Practices – Soul Retrieval; Journeying Within• DreamworkNLP is a good option for all aspects of working with the mind-body connection. NLP Master Practitioners help a client eliminate blocks to success, heal imprints, change limiting beliefs, help the client discover the hidden causes of anxiety and depression. NLP practitioners have expertise in healing one’s inner child/younger selves of traumatic memories.EFT / Meridian Tapping, is a wonderful technique for releasing stuck emotions in minutes. This method also works to ease or eliminate pain, change beliefs, heal the past and more! It involves a specific proceedure of tapping on accupressure points. Once learned from a teacher or website, it is quite simple to do on your own.Shamanistic Practices — Countless holistic practitioners, worldwide, have studied with professional shamans, and now offer mind-body-spirit healing techniques such as shamanic journeys into one’s psyche, soul retrieval, and healing through metaphor and symbolism.Dreamwork – This is a magical way to do self-healing. One can undertake a Therapeutic Dreaming Quest. For thirty nights, ask for the same thing every night. Ask to be healed. Ask for help from Spirit. Along the way you may receive dreams that provide information about the cause(s) of your illness or pain. These dreams may come in the form of nightmares. Do not be alarmed by these. They are bringing awareness from deep in the subconscious to your conscious mind. The “Dream Decipher Process”TM is a great method for interpreting your dreams.But even if you never remember a single dream, the guidance you seek will come to you during the day in other ways. Allow the insights to flow in. Act on them.You can heal yourself. You have outer resources available to you, and you have the resources within you. Spirit is ready to help you, all you have to do is ask. Make the decision to get on the path to self-healing–now! </p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://mazurroms.info/the-mind-body-spirit-connection-the-pathway-to-self-healing,html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Travel and Tourism Schools – Higher Education Options</title> <link>https://mazurroms.info/travel-and-tourism-schools-higher-education-options,html</link> <comments>https://mazurroms.info/travel-and-tourism-schools-higher-education-options,html#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 02 Feb 2023 06:07:35 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://mazurroms.info/?p=54</guid> <description><![CDATA[By enrolling in an accredited school, college, or degree program you can obtain an education in travel and tourism.
