Certified Iridology Practitioner Course, October 28th and 29th

10/20/2017

Time is drawing near for our live Certified Iridology Practitioner Course on October 28th and 29th. Be sure to register soon so we have a spot for you in the classroom or over the internet. This course runs from 8-6 both days and will be held at the Hilton at Arden Way in Sacramento.

If you live out of state and cannot attend this course it is now completely available online to you. We can also bring you into the class over the computer so you can attend live from out of state through the internet if you wish.

Course Details
This course is open to everyone. It doesn't matter if you've had previous iridology training or not. This training will introduce you to some European Iridology concepts and current research as well as further confirm the concepts we originally learned from Dr. Jensen. These are some of the concepts I have been sharing in our Iridology Facebook Group for those who have been following us. We will compare the original markings and beliefs that the eyes do change to the new European beliefs that the eyes do not change and we'll look at some case histories to determine if they have changed over the years or not.

Course Cost
This course costs $250 until October 28th and then $300 at the door. The course can be paid in full up-front, in two payments, or monthly (whichever is easier for you). It can be paid by check, credit card, bank wire, money gram or western union.

SD8004 Super Digital Iridology 24.2MP Iridology and Sclerology Camera System (Now Comes with Free "Vertical Rise"!)

10/20/2017

Joyful Living Services, in partnership with Iris Imaging, is excited to announce that we offer a 24.2MP Digital Iridology and Sclerology Camera System that has the capability of extremely high resolution and uncompromising quality at affordable prices.

Our Iridology and Sclerology System is based on the 24.2MP Nikon DSLR. The system uses a highly rated, crystal clear 90mm lens that has even greater clarity than the 105mm macro lens for unparalleled performance and clarity.

The camera features a newly designed oversized Nikon CMOS sensor specifically optimized for low noise and high saturation, giving you the best image quality available. It also uses Image-processing engine EXPEED 3 - the same as that used by the Nikon D4 FX-format flagship camera and a 3-inch Clear View LCD with anti-reflective and scratch-resistant coating. You'll have uncompromised Digital performance with power and flexibility in the palm of your hands.

We use a highly regarded macro lens along with a specifically designed flash and two high quality fiber optic strands to illuminate the eye perfectly. This allows for greater depth of field and consistently clearer pictures. The flashes are still within the pupil so no part of the eye is obscured.

The portable fully adjustable custom camera stand is made of heavy duty plate aluminum with a beautiful "Brite Dipped" face mount rather than the plastic found in other systems. This gives you unequaled beauty, strength, stability and longevity. It is easy to set up on any table, at any location for ultimate portability and comfort.

The lighting system gives you perfectly illuminated shots every time without flash spots on the iris. The twin head focus light is embedded in the flash ring giving you ease in focusing while being easy on the client.

Jagged or Star Shaped Collarette

10/20/2017

Tend to have swings from lots of energy to very low energy levels. Life can be super exciting when the energy levels are high and totally exhausting when energy levels are low.
May seem happy and on top of the world one day and down and depressed on another day.

Mood swings are apparently caused by blood sugar highs and lows and imbalance in nerve energy to the organs and glands.
May become frustrated and have erratic or explosive behavior.
We need to pay close attention to where the points and indentations are located. In both areas there will be a compromise in nerve energy to the organs or glands adjacent.
Colon activity is often unpredictable with swings from constipation to diarrhea, which may be irritable bowel syndrome.
Diarrhea may often worsen under extreme stress because there are often strictures in the bowel with tendencies for inflammation throughout the intestinal tract.
Tend to have a lot of intestinal cramping and flatulence.
This seems to be a genetic tendency.
Diet should include a highly alkaline diet. They should avoid sugar, stimulants, alcohol, gluten, and pasteurized cow's milk. They should eat no more than two fruits per day, no fruit juice, lots of vegetables, and soaked blended nuts and seeds. Smaller beans, such as lentils and adzuki beans that have been soaked in water are often easier to digest. Proper food combining should be adhered to. Flax seed tea, slippery elm bark, and marshmallow root are very soothing for the digestive tract. Be vitamins and minerals calm the nervous system. Chamomile tea clams and soothes the nerves.

Intermittent Collarette

10/20/2017

Appears broken in areas. Where it is broken the organ outside the wreath and adjacent will have a tendency to be deficient in nerve energy.
People will usually feel lethargic with very little energy. Difficult for them to feel enthusiastic about beginning projects and then when they do, they lack the strength to complete them.

Physically these people lack energy in the digestive tract.
Very sensitive digestive system and possibly have enzyme deficiencies.
Poor absorption of vitamins and minerals.
Peristalsis is sluggish and bowel movements are difficult. This can cause abdominal bloating, cramping, and spasms after eating.
They can feel a loss of appetite and become fearful of eating.
Check to see which organs are being affected by the breaks in the collarette.
A broken area adjacent to the gallbladder and liver reaction fields can further impede digestive ability. The liver produces bile that helps with the digestion of fats and the absorption of fat soluble vitamins such as A, D, E, and K. Bile is stored by the gallbladder and secreted as needed into the small intestine. The pancreas secretes digestive enzymes into the duodenum and sugars.
Digestive enzymes are helpful to these people. Taking enzymes together with fatty foods is important to help with the utilization of fats and fat soluble vitamins. High quality oils such as flax seed oil and borage oils are very beneficial if taken with enzymes. Drinking raw vegetable juices high in enzymatic activity is very beneficial. Combining foods properly and chewing them well is important for proper digestion and absorption of nutrients. Blended soups and salads will assist with proper absorption of nutrients. Exercise that focuses on strength building is important and will improve energy levels if they are on a good nutritional program.

What You Need to Know About Candida

10/20/2017

Commonly called "yeast infection"

In normal circumstances yeast are present in every human being and even in the environment. When our immune system is strong and healthy they live in harmony inside of us without harming us. There are approximately 1,500 species of yeast however, candida albican is one of them. The reason why it's becoming a crises and frequent it's because it has developed resistance to conventional treatment. Candida can affect your mood, your physical well being and even cause you trouble sleeping.

Once candida overgrows it is called "Candida overgrowth" or Candidiasis and it is always bad news. In common language this is what we call "yeast infection"! Some of the factors that contribute to candida overgrowth are:

Poor nutrition: We are an overly fed nation but starving inside. Why? Because we consume things that feed all the bad bugs and kill the good ones. With poor nutrition comes poor nutrients and soon starvation.
The use of Antibiotics: Nowadays, we take antibiotics like candies! Worst we don't even know why we take them because most of the viruses have become resistant and immune to their effect. Instead we end up making the bad guys stronger and we kill the good ones.
Other causes: For women: It could be hormonal change due to birth controls pills ingested for months or years. It might also be caused by poor acid balance due to the frequent use of douche, synthetic fabrics, soaps, and even some tampons. For men: Who think they can't get yeast infections it can be caused by many factors from viruses, to bacterial infections. Poor hygiene due to non-circumcision, harsh soaps etc. Other contributors to Candida can be disease or circumstances that damages the immune system such as: HIV, liver problems, diabetes, hypothyroidism, chemotherapy and so on. It can also grow in the mouth and other organs.

"If you feel at least 6 of the symptoms mentioned below and/or have used antibiotics at least once in the past year, then your body might be talking to you".

Symptoms: Gas, Bloating, Flatulence, Indigestion, Diarrhea or constipation, Digestive complaints, Fatigue, Adrenal exhaustion, Fungal infections of the nails & skin, Athleteâ€™s foot, Recurring UTIâ€™s (urinary tract infections), Cystitis (inflammation of the bladder), PMS, Fungal rash, Eczema or psoriarsis, Inability to lose weight, Headaches, Poor coordination, Insomnia, Heart palpitations, Chronic body pain and/or joint pains, Muscle aches and stiffness, Allergies and sensitivity, Cravings for sugar and alcohol, Dizziness and Fatigue, Depression, mood swings, Anxiety, panic attacks, etc. Please note that not all the symptoms are candida related!

A Few tips to help you fight yeast infection or candida:

Chitosan inhibits the proliferation of Candida albicans.
Caprylic Acid inhibits the growth of Candida albicans in the Intestines.
Lapachol (a Naphthaquinone present in Pau Dâ€™Arco) kills Candida albicans.
Black Walnut exerts Anti-Fungal effects against Candida albicans.
Lactobacillus acidophilus inhibits the proliferation of Candida albicans (by recolonizing the Digestive Tract and by producing Hydrogen Peroxide).
Fermented coconut kefir inhibits the proliferation of Candida albicans (by recolonizing the Digestive Tract with Beneficial Bacteria).
Charcoal (20 - 30 grams per day) suppresses the growth of Candida albicans (in the Gastrointestinal Tract) and adsorbs the toxins produced by Candida albicans in the Gastrointestinal Tract. It thereby counteracts the Herxheimer Reaction experienced by many people attempting to rapidly eradicate Candida albicans from the body!
Avoid Sugars (all sorts), Grains and grain products, Caffeine, Alcohol, Processed foods, Excessive stress

Healthy habits: Non-starchy vegetables, Fresh meat, and organic where possible, Natural sweeteners, Non-caffeinated/ Non-alcoholic drinks, Healthy oils, Pseudo-grains, Spices, many contain anti-fungal properties, and Relaxation

Help for Seasonal Sinus Drainage

10/20/2017

When I got up today I stepped outside to check the weather, I was greeted by a wonderful cool crisp morning. It was quite the contrast from the warm humid mornings of the summer. One of the main indicators of the change of seasons is the sudden drop in temperature at night. This change in temperature brings changes in our physical body as well.

One of the first signs is the resulting tickle or drainage in your throat. As this drainage becomes more pronounced, it can lead to cold-like symptoms. The drainage may leak into the ear canal overnight, causing the ears to become plugged. Or, if it drips into the lung area you wake up with a cough and it feels like it is stuck in the lungs.
