Guest guest Posted August 2, 1999 Report Share Posted August 2, 1999 Nellie: Do follow your gut- it gives you important information. It may not be time to jump ship, but I'm sure you have lots of questions for the therapist in terms of treatment planning so you can see where he's headed. You need to feel very comfortable with your child's therapist because that's the person who is going to be your knowledgable tour guide leading you through the tumultuous OCD territory. When there are other disorders comorbid such as ADHD, I find that sometimes these other issues need to be addressed for the first few weeks to iron out some of the daily struggles so that things can be stable enough to begin the tough challenges of fighting OCD. Best of luck. Tamar Chansky, Ph.D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atleast this is how P.T. Barnum explained his definition of " midget " . So technically when people call me a midget, and I'm an achon, they are wrong. Midget in ANY case IS slang.And besides all that, the term midget is from such an old language that we should update ourselves and stop living in the days when as a dwarf we didn't receive the amount of respect as we do today. > > > > Anyways, I just wanted to display some facts for everyone, and I tried my best to NOT give my opinion. > > > > Thanks > > Jenn > > > > P.S.

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2000 Report Share Posted June 9, 2000 Dear Connie: I guess you'll just have to look at this as a positive. No one has an accurate and proveable theory on why and why gets bitten. The only fact that is known is that something in our body chemistry makes us more or less attractive. What that is, is not known, and, it is possible that something to do with the liver might be a common characteristic. Just keep smiling.

Guest guest Posted June 18, 2000 Report Share Posted June 18, 2000 Warning: Newbie Question! ;-) , What is the Body for Life 20 Minute Solution? Is this a tape or something? I have the book, and have just started reading it, so forgive me if this is something obvious that I should know (I haven't gotten very far in the book yet!) Thanks, Tammy Tammy's Sea of Thoughts http://najusa.cjb.net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 21, 2000 Report Share Posted June 21, 2000 The 20 minute aerobic solution (starting on page 64) is a way to get your aerobic activity into a compact time span of 20 minutes of mean, heart pumping, fat burning activity!!! The idea is intensity. High intensity aerobics can increase fat-burning in a shorter amount of time compared to the usual low-to-moderate-intensity aerobic activity. It starts off with a 2 minute warm-up of " Level 5 " intensity. Level 5 is enough effort to accomplish the job without breaking a sweat...just a warm-up. Increase that intensity to a 6 for the 3rd minute, intensity 7 for the 4th minute, intensity 8 for the 5th minute, and intensity 9 (ALMOST all you've got) for the 6th minute. After one minute of level 9 bring it back down to a level 6 and start interval training over again from level 6 to 9 to complete 4 cycles. At the 18th minute you will be at a level 9 intensity. Upon reaching the 19th minute you are gonna give it all you've got and them some!!! Work your ass off like you've never worked it before. You should be working so hard that nothing else exists in your mind but what you are doing at that exact moment. A level 10 means you absolutely couldn't go any faster, any harder, not even if Bill himself were right there coaching you on. You hold that level 10 for one full minute and then go back to a level 5 to cool down for one minute....or more if you need it (that's my recommendation...cuz I don't know bout you, but after I hit a 10, I need more cool down time, cuz I'll fall over if I try to walk away from it too soon!!!) How's that break down for ya? - aka - Bond Girl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 7, 2001 Report Share Posted March 7, 2001 Bobbie, This egroup serves a lot more than research.

Hi Naomi; Sorry I didn't answer you right away! This thread sort of got lost somewhere but~ yes you could add beeswax to make a pomade. I use beeswax. We may have a recipe for it here in the Archives and if not email me privately at my email and I will send you one. I make a lot of solid perfumes. They are part of a line of natural fragrances that I have created. They are easy to carry in your purse and are fun to create! I think Mandy Aftel has a recipe for some in her book " Essence And Alchemy " . Hope this helps. Fragrant Blessings! Dee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
