CONTINUING OUR 12-STAGE JOURNEY TO WELLNESS
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!

Simply Well
People need people. And often they don't realize how great their need is until some moment of great joy or deep sorrow. In "Keep Friendship Alive" John W. Travis, M.D., M.P.H., explains why one of the healthiest things you can do for yourself is to cultivate vibrant friendships - the kind that will supply you with the genuine support everyone needs, friendships in which you can dare to reveal your feelings, act spontaneously, care, touch, and serve.

Healthy Computing
Do you feel increasing discomfort from mousing as the day passes? Do your shoulders ache and your hands feel cramped? In "Keystrokes" Erik Peper, Ph.D. and Katherine Hughes Gibney recommends that you drop your hand to your lap, breathe and use some common keystrokes to substitute for mouse commands.

From Fatigued to Fantastic
In "Q & A with Jacob Teitelbaum, M.D. on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia #2" Dr. Teitelbaum's column addresses how can a doctor determine if you have CFS? One key issue is that if any of a very large number of other processes is present, the person is not clinically considered to have chronic fatigue syndrome. This has resulted in the vast majority of people with CFS not technically fitting this description, and the number of patients suffering with this illness has been dramatically underestimated.

Healthy Alternatives
As the movement from drugs and surgery progresses toward alternatives, massage is gaining popularity as a therapeutic modality. Hospitals, and even corporations, are hiring massage therapists to help with healing and to prevent the negative impacts of stress. In "Self-Applied Massage" Dr. Roger Jahnke explains how to effectively perform self-applied massage.

Healthy Child
Not every cold needs to be treated, since the body's natural reaction to the cold virus is a healthy response. Consider treating a cold if the symptoms are significantly disturbing the child, if the condition lingers, or if the child needs to attend a special event without having respiratory difficulties. In "Common Cold" Dana Ullman, M.P.H. offers homeopathic remedies to consider.

Nutrition Tips
Seeds are the potential for new life that are grown as part of a plant and in some way reach the earth to carry on their species. In "Seeds" Elson M. Haas, M.D. selects three seeds (pumpkin, sesame, and sunflower) and shows how these are high-protein foods, with even more protein than grains. He outlines the nutritional value of seeds, plus cooking and storage tips.

Echoes of Silence
It is tragic to go through life a prisoner of the past. In "Nothing to Fear" Robert Rabbin shares a personal experience as he journeyed from a nightmare to a daydream, from fear to excitement. He demonstrates how we must become fully present in order to experience what is happening now, in order to know what is happening now.

Spiritual Wellness
As we approach the final lap in a presidential campaign, Philip Goldberg finds himself reflecting on the relationship between spirituality and social/political involvement. In "Rendering Unto Caesar" he notes that on the one hand, by turning our gaze inward to the true source of happiness, spiritual teachings can foster detachment from social problems. On the other hand, the spiritual path can lead to direct social and political engagement. You may feel ill-equipped to have an impact on the world stage. But your vote counts, every check you write makes a difference, every act of kindness adds up.
