"Sex on the Brain"
& "Dating and the Brain"
"A healthier brain equals a sexier you"
The
path to genuine intimacy is not body to body, but rather
brain to brain. We are looking
for love in all the wrong places! Understanding the
connection between brain and sex can give you a huge
advantage both in and out of the bedroom.
Great
sex is all about blood flow to your brain and genitals.
Anything that decreases blood flow, diminishes brain
health and sexuality. Increasing blood flow is the fountain
of youth for sex and your brain. There are many great
health benefits to having a healthy sex life including
pain control, longevity, and a decreased risk for heart
disease.
Male and female brains are
different and men and women need to learn how to navigate
through the gender differences in the brain. The dance
of relationshps is both chemically and environmentally
driven. Understanding the ingredients of the dance will
make you a more effective lover and partner.
On our show, you'll also
learn about:
Understanding
the brain differences and how to train your lover to
please you sexually is an important goal for your overall
health, longevity, and pleasure.

" Alzheimer's
disease begins an average of 30 years before the
first symptoms. It is never too early to start
preventing this devastating disease. The good
news is that through prevention strategies, you
may be able to delay the onset of AD long enough
so that you will never have symptoms."
Daniel Amen, M.D. "Preventing Alzheimers"
One out of every two families
in the U.S. has a member with Alzheimer's Disease.
The scary news is that by age 85, there is a 50
percent chance that you will develop AD. But the
good news is that you can start now to delay the
symptoms from ever becoming problematic. Many
of us believe that having memory problems naturally
go along with normal aging. This is not true.
The truth is when your brain works right, you
work right. Taking good care of yourself and your
brain's health is critical no matter how old you
are.
On our show you'll learn about....

The importance of diet,
exercise, vitamins and new learning everyday.

" Core
symptoms common to those who have ADD include:
short attention span for routine tasks, distractibility,
organizational problems (space and time), difficulty
with follow through, and poor internal supervision.
These symptoms exist over a prolongeed period
of time and are present from an early age."
Daniel
Amen "Healing ADD"
An
estimated 17 million people in the U.S. have ADD.
It is the single most common learning and behavioral
problem in children and as doctors are discovering,
it is a common problem in adulthood, leading to
underachievement, loneliness and a myriad of other
problems. ADD is an hereditary condition that
runs in families. ADD affects many areas of the
brain, primarily the prefrontal
cortex (the brain's
controller of concentration, attention span, judgment,
organization, planning and impulse control), the
temporal
lobes (where
the brain houses memory and experience) and the
deep limbic
system (the brain's
mood control center). Based on what Dr. Amen discovered
while doing thousands of brain imaging scans,
there are six types of ADD, not just the threee
currently believed. Knowing what type of ADD you
or your child has is critical to establishing
and maintaining an effective treatment program.
Here is a brief overview of the six types of ADD:
 |
Type
1: Classic ADD
Sufferers are inatentive, distractible,
disorganized, hyperactive, restless, and
impulsive.
|
 |
Type
2: Inattentive ADD
Sufferers are inattentive, sluggish, slow-moving,
have low motivation, and are often described
as space cadets, daydreamers or couch potatoes. |
 |
Type
3: Overfocused ADD
Sufferers have trouble shifting attention;
frequently get stuck in loops of negative
thoughts or behaviors; are obsessive; worry
excessively; are inflexible; frequently behave
oppositionally and argumentatively. |
 |
Type
4: Temporal Lobe ADD
Sufferers are inattentive, irritable; aggressive;
have dark thoughts, mood instability, and
are severely impulsive. |
 |
Type
5: Limbic ADD
Sufferers are inatentive, experience chronic
low-grade depression, are negative, have
low energy, and have frequent feelings of
hopelessness and worthlessness.
|
 |
Type
6: 'Ring of Fire' ADD
Sufferers are inattentive, extremely distractible,
angry, irritable, overly sensitive to the
environment, hyperverbal, extremely oppositional,
and experience cyclic moodiness. |
There are many healing options
in addition to medication to be aware of and numerous
resources available that can help you or a loved
one deal with ADD. Watching this 30 minute program
is a great start.
