Remove Bodily Pollution with Colon Cleansing
One of the biggest threats to living today is pollution. In urban environments, you can see the pollution all around you. But even if you live in a pastoral, rural setting, pollution is reaching you. Urbanites, farmers and everyone in between are all ingesting some of this pollution in the foods they eat. These toxins can accumulate in the colon and cause a variety of ailments. To flush these toxins from your body you should consider a colon cleanse.
Colon cleansing can be accomplished in a variety of ways. You can get colon hydrotherapy, also known as a colonic. You can use fasting in conjunction with herbs for a slower, at-home colon cleanse. You can also use colon cleansing herbs with a restricted diet. Regardless of how you choose to clean your digestive tract, you will be flushing interior pollution from your body.
The toxins that cause the pollution of your own personal sewer system act in much the same way as foreign objects act in your home’s sewer system. The more junk you put in your body, the less-efficient your body’s plumbing will be. Colon cleansing clears your digestive tract to allow it to function better.
A colon cleanse should be maintained by eating a diet high in fiber and probiotics. Both of these help your system eliminate waste efficiently. When you are eliminating waste from your body regularly, you are not giving the toxins a chance to linger and ferment in your digestive tract. Optimally, you should be having a healthy bowel movement after every meal.
But most of us aren’t that regular, or our stools are not very healthy-looking. Colon cleansing will help you reset your digestive system. If you maintain a colon-friendly diet after your colon cleanse, you will stay regular. If you go back to your regular, not-so-healthy diet, you should probably plan on having your colon cleansed regularly. If you stick with a diet that is naturally colon cleansing, you may not have to do another colon cleanse for quite some time. Your system will also be more prepared to process the occasional fast-food burger if you usually stick with healthy foods.
Colon cleansing is a good idea for most everyone, but some persons with preexisting colon conditions, are not good candidates for most colon cleanses. They still may benefit from a strict diet including herbal and probiotic supplements. Be sure to consult your doctor before beginning any colon cleansing routine. Also consult your pharmacist or doctor if the colon cleanse you are considering includes herbs. Many herbs may decrease the effectiveness of prescription drugs.
To feel healthy, you need to keep toxins from polluting your body. Since the colon is where most of these toxins end up, keeping your colon clean is an important step in maintaining overall good health. Colon cleanses can help flush these toxins out and other colon cleansing products can help you keep those toxins from hanging around in your bowels. If you keep your colon healthy, the rest of your body will usually follow.

Bond Strategies in a Rising Interest Rate Environment
Copyright (c) 2010 Brian Fricke
It seems to me like we’ve been getting more and more calls and inquiries about the concern over bonds. People are wondering how they are going to perform when interest rates start to go up.
In general terms, when we put bonds into someone’s investment account, we are buying an individual bond, and we intend to hold that bond until it matures or it’s called by the issuer. And if we are paying face value for the bond, then we are going to get all of our money back when the bond is called and matured.
While we hold the bond, we get the stated interest rate or the coupon interest rate that the bond is supposed to be paying. The value of the bond itself will vary one month to the next – it moves up when interest rates drop, and loses value when interest rates go up.
This is why some people are expressing concern right now, when most people believe interest rates can’t go much lower. Because this means that bond values are likely going to go down.
This isn’t a huge concern for us when it comes to most of our clients and accounts, because we intend to hold the bond until it comes due. When we do that, we get all of all our money back. It’s similar to buying a CD and holding it to maturity; you get your interest plus your money back.
When it comes to buying bonds, we always advise whenever possible to buy the individual bond rather than a bond mutual fund. The reason for that is the bond mutual fund has no maturity date. So you can’t buy a bond fund with the idea that you’re going to hold it to maturity because it never matures. That’s why owning a bond fund long enough is a guaranteed way to watch your principle erode in value.
So here’s a couple of ways to make money with bonds when interest rates go up. When it comes to making money in a rising interest rate environment, we actually want to own bond mutual funds. But not just any bond mutual fund.
There are two different types. The first one is generally referred to as a floating rate note fund. It’s a mutual fund that will buy short-term commercial paper, diversified in a fund, with the interest rates usually tied to an index like LIBOR (London Inter Bank Offer Rate) that resets every 90-120 days. So in a rising rate environment, the yield, or interest, on the fund tends to go up as interest rates increase.
The other type of fund is referred to as an inverse fund or a short fund. These are mutual funds that are engineered to short the bond market or go inverse (in the opposite direction of the bond market). So when bonds are losing value, these funds go up in value.
Either of these two strategies will help combat a rising interest rate environment and keep us earning competitive yields or interest.

The Top 3 Ways to Gain Control in This Unstable Environment
Control… It’s something we all crave. It creates and destroys. But we all need something to hold onto, especially today. If you’re a layoff survivor, you know what I’m talking about. You feel unsure about what you can count on. ..what you can believe. Well, I want to give you the top 3 ways to gain control in this unstable work environment. But let me start by saying…it begins in one place and one place only…you!
Number 1 : Get clear about what you want your future to be
Aren’t you tired of having everyone else telling you what you want, who you are and how to be it? And if one more person tells you that you should be happy you still have a job, you’re going to scream, right? Well if this is where you are, then it’s time that you get clear about what you want for your future. Yes, you can decide that. And whether you’re still employed or looking for employment, there is no better time than right now to do it!
How do you do it? Several safe and easy techniques will help you immediately. Select the best one or two that you feel comfortable with. You’ll get excellent results, no matter which you select.
- Meditation – sit quietly, clear you head and breathe deeply, don’t think — just be.
- Visualization – Meditation with a twist… sit quietly, clear your head, breathe deeply and imagine what you want your future to be. See it in your minds eye with all the color, feel and emotion that it would bring. Make it grand, big and full of all that you want and deserve your future to be! And don’t forget to see yourself in it!
- Vision board – go to a crafts store or the arts section of a retail store and pick up a sheet of poster board. Select a color that makes you feel good to look at every day and a size that’s easy for you to work with. Next, it’s time to clear out the magazine rack! Clip and paste pictures that draw you closer to the future you desire. These pictures should have meaning and tap into a special, deep emotion of joy each time you look at your vision board. Place the board in a place where you’ll see and experience it every day!
- Journaling – get the notebook, pen and a cup of tea or glass of wine, relax and breathe deeply. And then, just write. Don’t worry about the grammar, the spelling or whether it makes sense or not. This is for you and only you. To get started, ask yourself, what would I like my future to look like? Who am I in this wonderful future? How am I feeling while living this future of mine? Just let it flow… Come back a day or two and read what you’ve written and get ready to learn more about who you are and where you’re going!
- Coaching- work with a life or career coach to help you give voice to your desired future in a safe, comfortable and confidential conversation. They can help you explore the opportunities that help you achieve your future, faster.
- Have a conversation with a trusted, open and honest friend- just talking about the desire for a different future can open up so much to come to you. A really good friend will support you and hold you to achieving all that you can be. They will give you insight to parts of you that you didn’t even know you had! And who knows, they may have just met someone who can help you reach your goal.
But it comes back to being honest and loving with yourself. It is ultimately your life, your decision and therefore your choice. When you’re clear about how you want your future to look, the Universe lines up the resources to support you. You begin to recall things in your past that help you. You begin to see books, magazines, people who point you in the desired direction. You begin to get ideas that had never occurred to you before. It’s so exhilarating and exciting because you see and feel the opportunities and possibilities in front of you.
Trust me, clarity is cool!
Number 2 : Suck it up and decide how you’ll create your future!
This is the greatest time for people to say, ok, this is what’s in front of me. Got it! Now let me at it! I have the right and opportunity to go after what I want now! If you’ve been laid off, you can pursue the field you were in to find another job or you can use what you enjoyed most, to create a new job/future for yourself. If you are still employed, then take the opportunity to pursue your passion after work. This preserves your sanity, reduces your fear and gives you a protection plan for your future.
Now I know, "suck it up" is a bit harsh. But I’m sure in the last 6 months seeing people laid off without a plan has been harsh as well. I don’t want that for you! I want you to start to plan…now…while you still have a paycheck. And if you are laid off, think about where your next stop is and if that’s the future you want, based on your recent past. Do the right thing for your spirit and do it now…
Number 3 : Begin now, while you’re employed, to make it happen for your future!
Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
I’ve long embraced this quote because we are all geniuses. It’s how we sit on it that diminishes it. The act of taking action – no matter how small – is more powerful than you think. It begins a physiological sensation in you that propels you forward. Your enthusiasm and eagerness rise. You inhibitions slow. Your ideas flow, your energy surges. You are the "king (or queen) of the world!" It’s what creates fortunes for millionaires and billionaires. Yes, just one small step can create your legacy – a future rich and fulfilling. And guess what? You get to choose another small step, easily, because you recognize that it’s all within you and your control. Good stuff, huh?
Take hold, embrace, engage – just do it. Use the Top 3 ways to gain control in this unstable work environment and make them "work"for you. It is within your reach and it’s certainly within your control. Just suck it up and do it! [smile]
