Your Lifestyle Should Be Your Medicine:with the Hibiscus
Health Haven!
Living in balance with nature's laws is the only way
to true vitality and freedom from sickness.
Things like sunshine, clean water, fresh air, good wholesome
fresh foods, rest, peace of mind and exercise all done
correctly give our bodies the correct conditions it
needs to self-regulate, self-adjust and where possible
self-heal. It is a fact of biological science that all
living things can heal and rejuvenate themselves where
it is possible when given the right biological conditions
they need to have freedom from disease and a high level
of health in all areas of living.
A good way to kick start your body into this program
is to do a detoxification first, followed by an 11 week
rejuvenation plan. This is what we teach you at Hibiscus
Health Haven, how to take control of your own health
and that of your loved ones.
This is the beginning of health at an intra-cellular
cleansing and detoxification. When this is done correctly
you will discover rejuvenation of body and mind on a
cellular level. Correct knowledge is personal power
to change your life, perhaps save your life and extend
your life.
Disease is a 'dis-equilibrium' in the body's self regulating
functions, in otherwords, 'a departure from what is
normal'. Toxins are being generated every second of
our lives. These only become hazardous for our health
when we allow them to accumulate beyond the normal limit
of what the body can tolerate.
It is through the body tissue and fluids that contain
abnormal amounts of unexcreted, accumulated wastes that
disease processes can develop. When elimination of body
waste is impaired by a faulty lifestyle, disease in
one of its forms is inevitable. Your blood is your River
of Life so keep it unpolluted and flowing freely to
every cell in your body.
Disease and germs come when you have the right conditions
set up for them. Detox your body, get started on the
rejuvenation program, feel the vitality that is there
for the taking. Obey nature's biological laws and live
life to the fullest.
HIBISCUS HEALTH HAVEN has been a personal dream
for Philip and Fay Lebsanft that has been five years
in the making. This is something we have long recognized
as a much needed service in country Queensland. We have
created a unique country retreat with nature's gorgeous
sunsets and serene views, from two 50 year old school
buildings
WHAT WE OFFER!
Facilities: In
summer, our pool will entice you in. A bubbling hot
spa is your special treat or a hot steamy session in
the steam room is not to be missed either.
Detoxification :If
detoxing is required then "Hibiscus Health Haven" is
the retreat you need to relax and revive. Learn a lifestyle
that is liveable and one that works at keeping you feeling
younger in your later years. Our detox program will
kick-start your personal aims in achieving better health
at a cellular level.
Programs: We offer 6 or 13 day or longer detox
and rejuvenation programs. You will learn the benefits
of skin brushing, to breath fully, how to relax, exercises
to keep you supple as well as a simple toning program
to shape your body beautifully. Enjoy a complimentary
therapeutic massage, and an Iris and Sclerology analysis
will give you an insight to where your problems (if
you have any) are coming from.
6 Day Detox: During this time you will be on
cleansing juices for 3 days, then selected fresh fruits,
salads and an alkalizing soup. You will learn full breathing
and gentle stretching exercises, learn a 'vitality walk'
(an aerobic workout in itself) and toning techniques.
You will have plenty of time for sessions in the steam
room, sun and REST which are so important during this
week.
13 Day or longer Detox and Rejuvenation: After
the first week of detox, I introduce more foods to your
diet and some physical exercises. During this second
week you will have plenty of time to master the vitality
walk and have full use of the weights. By the end of
this week you will be in a good routine before going
home. This is important, as you will follow this routine
for the next 10 weeks, to continue the good work you've
started here. If followed correctly your body will continue
to detox and rejuvenate.
Super 10 Day Bowel Cleanse
In this cleanse you will complete 7 days of cleansing
juices before introducing you back on to solids. This
10 day program is exceptional and well worth doing to
get your health back on track
Nutrition : Experience a vegetarian feast and
learn how to easily prepare common sense and highly
nutritious meals that you can continue to prepare at
home that make you feel satisfied.
Weight Loss : If weight reduction has been difficult
for you, then try our program along with your commitment

goals.
Accommodation : Enjoy total privacy (or twin
share) in your own attractively individually furnished

Tips To Activate, Not Hibernate this Winter: with Healthy
Inspirations!
Leading Australian dietitian and exercise scientist
Matt O'Neill is sharing his tips to avoid winter weight
gain and sore joints by activating, not hibernating,
this season.
Consulting for Healthy Inspirations women's exercise
and weight loss centres at Indooroopilly, Matt is using
these tips to motivate members:
- Don't
pack your exercise gear away for winter. Keep it out
where you can see it, as a constant reminder that
you are ready for winter workouts.
-
Join a gym and exercise where weather isn't an issue.
-
Use a treadmill or exercise bike indoors. You can
even set up a magazine to read or watch TV at the
same time.
-
Make outdoor winter workouts more pleasant by wearing
layers of clothing, rather than one big coat. Peel
off sweaters and track pants as you warm up.
-
Take up a new indoor activity, like dancing or indoor
bowls where there's social support to keep you going.
-
Try an exercise video at home. You may feel a little
goofy, but you only need it to get you through winter.
-
Set a goal to achieve by spring. Enter a fun-run that
requires you to train during winter.
-
Make a pact with your buddies to beat the winter blues.
You'll have friends in your exact situation.
Winter is also the best time of year to `soup it up',
Matt said. "A broth or low-fat soup at lunch, or as
a first course at dinner, helps to fill your stomach
without expanding your waistline and there's solid
research to back this up."
Professor Barbara Rolls from Penn State University
instructed 200 overweight and obese subjects to follow
an energy-restricted diet for a year. The group that
was asked to consume two servings of low energy density
soup daily lost 50% more weight than the group consuming
the same amount of energy as high energy density snack
foods.

Eliminate Stress: with the Brisbane LiveWell Clinic!
Eliminate stress. Don't let your life slip away without
experiencing Health and Happiness
Diana , a female executive told me that every night
she drinks a bottle of wine. I asked her why she drinks
so much. She replied: "My work is just too much for
me, I'm all wound up, but exhausted when I come home.
I need the alcohol to relax me and put me to sleep.
My husband drinks more than I do. He is simply depressed
and stressed because we don't have time for each other
any more. When we come home,, we are both exhausted,
or angry. Our marriage is not going to last any longer
if we continue to act like this. That's why I'm here:
you have to help me."
Twelve years ago, this woman was a university graduate,
healthy, happy, proud, slim, full of energy. Today,
she is overweight , by age forty she had suffered low
sex drive, chronic headache, bowel bloating, constipation,
wrinkled skin, depression, and her marriage is close
to breaking down, and she is now on all kinds of prescription
drugs to maintain her day-to-day functions.
Diana demonstrates a rather serious case of stress,
and I see many others like her in my clinic.
Stress is an integral part of modern life - more than
many people realize. Unfortunately, when people are
experiencing a lot of stress, they often visit a doctor
or a psychiatrist who prescribes tranquillizers or antidepressants.
All this achieves is temporary relief of symptoms. While
the person may not be as stressed as before, they become
confused and lost. They also suffer the side effects
associated with these drugs: weight gain, liver malfunction,
headaches, dizziness, low sex drive and so on.
Other people might not start taking tranquillizers or
antidepressants, but instead smoke, or use alcohol,
chocolate, or coffee.
Rarely do people seek the real cause of the stress and
attempt to deal with by correcting lifestyle or mental
attitude.
Some common causes of stress are: examinations, changing
jobs, moving house, divorce, smoking, over-work, over-exercising,
negativity, late nights and lack of sleep, death of
family member or friend, marriage breakdown, injury
or illness, job loss, loss of sexual function, pregnancy,
poor family relationships, difficulty in getting along
at work, lawsuits, accidents, chronic diseases and so
on.
These are more serious types of stress and they need
to be dealt with in a serious manner. If they are not
treated properly, they will create a tremendous load
on the immune system and the organ systems, especially
the heart, blood vessels, and adrenals.
Lesser degrees of stress are everywhere in our lives.
However, the same stress that can make one person ill
can be invigorating someone else. It depends on their
mental attitude. To deal with stress effectively, you
must learn the following management techniques.
1.Positive mental attitude. Go back to basic.
You are what you think.
2.Healthy diet and lifestyle. You are what you
eat and drink.
3.Proper exercise and relaxation--- The best
anti stress and anti inflammatory pills.
4.Adrenal support with herbs and bioorganic nutrients.
If you are now taking chemical drugs such as antidepressants
or tranquillizers, or consume large amounts of alcohol,
coffee, cigarettes, food, have major mood swings, and
appear to have lost the purpose and goals in your life,
you need to see a good natural therapist to help you
correct these habits. This is most important, because
if you don't correct them, you reinforce your stress
levels.
Some Thousand year old Chinese herbs are wonderful in
helping you cope with stress. They work on nourishing
your nervous system and support your adrenal function
as well as regulating your thyroid and metabolism. Some
of these famous herbs are " Jia wei San", " Dan Mai
San", " Xiao Yao San".
Acupuncture is also extremely successful in both treating
and preventing stress. The purpose of acupuncture is
to reduce fire in the liver meridian and nourish the
heart and kidney. People report feeling wonderful after
one or two treatments.
Here is something that you can do for yourself at home.
As soon as you get home from work each day, remove your
shoes and hose. Prepare a basin of hot water with five
drops essential oil of lavender. Sit down, put your
feet into the water, close your eyes, take a few deep
breaths and feel the deep relaxation of your body. Then
go into your bedroom, turn on a relaxation tape, lie
down comfortably and listen to the tape. You will find
that you don't need to reach for coffee, alcohol or
chocolate anymore, and you will be much happier at home.
This is a Japanese ritual. Most Japanese houses have
a special room for performing this ritual. Japanese
work very hard, but they never take their stress home
with them. They download the stress before they enter
their home. That is why the concept of the Japanese
garden is so attractive to western people. It presents
the sense of peace, simplicity and tranquility.
Washing their feet in warm flower scented water discharge
their daily stress into the water. They meditate for
10 minutes, bring their energy from their mind to their
body and heart and then they can fully enjoy their family
life with their loved ones.
Western people need to learn urgently how to live a
more peaceful life style. Everyone out there is going
crazy with all kinds of self created stress. More than
30% of women are on anti depressants. This is a shocking
fact. There are so many reasons why these women are
depressed. Some of these reasons can be purely mental,
emotional, some can be biochemical. The most important
thing to do is for a good practitioner to help you identify
the actual cause so you can cure it.
Life is meant to be lived joyfully. Health and happiness
are what you want out of this life time. So don't let
your life slip away without them.

Media Release
BLACK AND BLUES
"The
music demands attention of every atom present in the
room" Mindy Christiernin Boras Times, Sweden
Steven
Jaymes wants to go home, but after so many years in
so many places he is not sure where that is any more!
In the past two years he's performed his trademark bluesy
jazz and roots sound in London, Denmark, Sweden, Norway,
Japan, New York City, Spain, Cuba and his home country,
Australia. In his twenty five years of song writing
and performing, he's played with Gavin DeGraw and Keith
Urban and in such legendary venues as The Bitter End
in NYC, Ronnie Scotts in London through to brothels
in Switzerland.
Steven Jaymes' 4th album, Black 17 comes off the back
of the independent success of his last album Hemingway's
Cats, which is still receiving ongoing support in Australia
and Sweden where two tracks have hit the Swedish airwaves.
The 11 song Black 17 begins with "Don't you know," a
Gritty melodic track that sets the stage for an album
draped in blues, jazz and roots. Apart from the whiskey
edged voice that flows through his songs; he also makes
his own, versions of Paul Simons 50 ways to leave your
lover and a version of Dragon's iconic hit, April Sun
in Cuba.
"The recording of Black 17 was the antithesis of Hemingway's
Cats where I spent five years travelling & recording
all around the world, this time it was mostly done in
five hours, what a relief and joy just to play" says
Steven.
With sell out shows at the famous Ronnie Scotts in London
and a barrage of showcases across Europe Black 17 has
been picked up for release in Scandinavia and Germany.
He's received hand written letters from Geoffrey Rush,
been courted by Hollywood producers and secured management
in LA (LA - PD) and Sweden (Hemifran) but still lives
to perform.
"It's like joining Sting on a picnic with Van Morrison
where Don Henley is showing up with the dessert, Steven
Jaymes has enough heart and soul to spread love through
his music over the pacific ocean. Who can stop him?,
who wants to?,not me! 11 real nice tunes." Kaj
Roth - Melodic - Sweden

LETTERS
TO THE EDITOR (The Times of London)
Dear
Sir,
I
am firmly opposed to the spread of microchips either
to the home or to the office, We have more than enough
of them foisted upon us in public places. They are a
disgusting Americanism, and can only result in the farmers
being forced to grow smaller potatoes, which in turn
will cause massive unemployment in the already severely
depressed agricultural industry.
