Structure Your Lifestyle for Maximum Health

I dont know of any part of the human anatomy or the anatomy of any living organism for that matter that is not designed for maximum efficiency and performance.

The scientific wording for this is: Structure Governs Function

For example;

The skull is a powerful protector of the most important organ in the body the brain.

The ears are angled to access acoustic vibrations.

The eyes discern colour and are best suited for gazing long distances.

The nose warms, filters and humidifies the air we breathe before it reaches the lungs.

The oral structure has some amazing functions from lip smacking and sucking to chewing, swallowing and digestion.

The structure of the spine allows for:

-stretching

-flexing

-bending

-twisting/torquing and

-rotation

The joints of the limbs allow for walking, climbing, running, reaching

The hands and fingers wellwhat more can we say other than the finger-thumb opposition sets us above all other animals.

We are an amazing piece of work.

We don't even have to know how all the parts work but we can be confident that all parts work for the whole.

The prime directive within each organism is to maintain its integrity at all costs.

To this end, each cell in the body adheres to the basic laws of biology, viz

- Response
- Reproduction
- Repair

The body responds to all stimulations, be they physical, chemical or electrical.

Each cell is capable of reproducing itself through the constant metabolic pattern of anabolism and catabolism.

And lastly, the body has an inbuilt program of repair - it heals itself and goes through cycles of detoxification when necessary.

This is the manner in which the body is structured and these are the means by which it communicates with itself.

All the best in structuring your lifestyle for better health.

Cordless Phone Systems

cordless phone systems offer many features and are ideal for small businesses or businesses that are run from home. As well as increasing the portability of your phone system, they also increase office efficiency and productivity.

The first cordless phone systems were introduced in the 1970 and suffered from issues such as large handset size and short battery life. Since then the technology and security of modern systems has grown continuously.

A good cordless phone system can now offer benefits such as: voice mail, call forwarding, caller I.D. and many more. The latest systems also offer: lightweight handsets, speed dialling, digital answering and long battery life. You can now choose from a range of high quality cordless phone systems that offer excellent clarity with virtually no interference.

cordless phone systems allow you to contact a user that may be walking around. Each system has a base unit which enables you to page the handset of a user, so long as they are in range. You can then speak to the user through the intercom facility. Some systems allow you to use another handset as the intercom instead of the base station.

cordless phone systems can be integrated into existing office phone systems. over the past few years, the development of new technology has made it possible for some cordless phone systems to be integrated into already existing office phone systems. Enabling companies to take full advantage of all the features and benefits that come with cordless phone systems, without suffering the cost and upset arising from the implementation of a new full office phone system.

Put simply, cordless phone systems allow you to wander freely around your business environment, without the fear of missing an important call or losing vital new business. They are truly wonderful pieces of equipment and can only enhance the profitability of any small business.

Five Undiscovered California National Parks


Summertime is a busy travel time and it seems everywhere you go it's crowded. Instead of heading to the beach or Yosemite along with everyone else, try heading to one of the many beautiful and crowd-free California National parks.

Sequoia National Park and Kings Canyon Less busy than Yellowstone, Sequoia National park and Kings Canyon are two separate National parks managed as one, which means you only have to pay one entrance fee for the both of them.

Sequoia National park truly is an undiscovered California treasure.

In the park you'll find the General Sherman Tree, the largest tree in the world; Mount Whitney, the highest point in the contiguous United States; the second-largest road-free wilderness area in the United States, and Crescent Meadow, a Sequoia-rimmed meadow called the "gem of the Sierra" by John Muir.

Channel islands National park Each island has its own endemic plants and animals, leading the Channel islands to often be called California's Galapagos. Over 2,000 species of plants and animals can be found within the park, which consists of five of the eight Channel islands along the southern California coast from Point Conception near Santa Barbara to just north of Los Angeles. The park is lightly visited, never crowded and beautiful year-round. Fall is the best time to visit this California National park though, because blue and humpback whales can be seen migrating.

death Valley National park Home to one of the starkest landscapes in California, death Valley is a geological wonder filled with exposed rock and sparse vegetation. With 3.4 million acres, death Valley is the largest National park in the contiguous U.S. The 18-mile drive from Furnace Creek to Badwater is a must, along the drive you'll see fantastic salt formations, colorful views and the lowest place in the western hemisphere.

Mount Shasta According to John Muir the beauty of Mount Shasta turned his blood to wine. located in Northern California, Mount Shasta is the largest volcanic peak in the contiguous U.S., a towering mountain with one of the highest base-to-summit rises in the world.

Snowcapped Mt. Shasta has pristine mountain lakes and rivers, majestic forests, and miles of backcountry to explore plus plenty of skiing, snowboarding, fishing, golfing, mountain biking, rock climbing and hiking.

Joshua Tree National park located in south eastern California, Joshua Tree National park includes two deserts, each with an ecosystem whose characteristics are determined primarily by elevation. This California National park gets its name from the unique looking Joshua tree which can be found in the higher, slightly cooler Mojave Desert.

The geologically unique landscape of the area features hills of bare rock, broken up into loose bolder, making the area huge for rock climbing and scrambling enthusiasts. Barker Dam, Keys View, which offers views of the Coachella Valley and Salton sea, bird watching, and hidden Valley (not the salad dressing) are all must-sees of the Joshua Tree National park.
