Local Staples™ to kick-off 2nd annual drawing for $400 a school supply shopping spree to Charlotte teachers
CHARLOTTE, NC, AUGUST 14, 2010- With cutbacks in school funding amidst our current fragile economy, Staples™(Smith Corners location, exit 18 off I-77) will team up with a pair of local chiropractic physicians to provide one lucky teacher on “Teacher Appreciation Day” with a $400 school supply shopping spree before students return to school next week. Teacher Appreciation Day is a yearly event held at multiple Staples™ locations throughout Charlotte and surrounding regions. This annual event involves school supply give-a-ways, door-crasher specials, prizes and gifts from local business vendors who donate their time and resources to help equip teachers with their back-to-school needs. With continuing budget cuts in CMS funding and other school boards, teachers have been known to spend as much as $500 worth out-of-pocket expenses (non-reimbursable) to equip their classrooms with teaching supplies required for their own particular learning environment. Two local Charlotte/Huntersville Maximized Living doctors, Dr. Brent Maxwell D.C. and Dr. Aaron Ernst D.C. have donated the $400 gift certificate that will be drawn shortly following the “Teacher Appreciation Day” at Staples™ north Charlotte location on Saturday August 14, 8am-1pm. With the direction and planning of the event initiated by Staples customer service manager Samantha Mullins, this annual tradition continues at a time when teachers need the most help.

| Why would you ever consider NOT vaccinating? |
| 12.07.2010 02:15:30 | |
|
I am a holistic Maximized Living Doctor but also the very proud mother of a lively and healthy 3-year old girl. After much research into vaccines to know how to best protect my girl from illness I have become driven to teach as many as possible about the pros and cons of vaccinations. I get that the pressure out there is strong and the system is in place to have all of us believe that vaccinations are effective, safe, and our ONLY option. Well I am here to challenge you otherwise if that is your belief. You may feel propelled to put this newsletter down right now but I urge you to fight your first instinct to shut down if I am going against what you know. What we first learn has the most profound impact on what we think and do and the hardest to re-learn. Any change in paradigm is difficult and rejection of new information is much easier. Well I am going to beg you to let yourself be confused, dumbfounded, and overwhelmed by the truth. What is the truth? Well that is what we are going to cover at the Vaccine workshop we have scheduled NEXT Monday at 7pm. Here are some major beliefs and concerns we will tackle: · If unvaccinated, what if I catch a contractible disease? · Not vaccinating is socially irresponsible, as unvaccinated children place other children at risk. · A child may not be able to attend school unless she is vaccinated. · If I have vaccinated y children I cannot simply stop. · What to do for travel abroad? This workshop is not about whether you vaccinate or not but about empowering you with knowledge and resources to that you need to make the best decision for yourself and family. Dr. Carley MD, a court qualified expert in vaccine induced diseases, states that, "Mercury is 1000 times more toxic than lead, and is second only to uranium as the most toxic metal. If children receive all recommended vaccines, they will receive 2370 times the allowable ‘safe limit’ – if there is such a thing as a safe amount of a toxic poison – in the first two years of life.” She continues to discuss how, sadly, media attention, after the explosive rate of occurrence in autism in the last generation. Figures released by the California Department of Developmental Service revealed that the number of children with autism increased by 273% between 1987 and 19998. How can this be? Excerpt from Well Adjusted Babies, Dr. Jennifer Barham-Floreani 2nd Edition 2009. P 353. This event will sell-out!!! So please reserve a spot for you and your guests. Remember we need to reach out and help others learn about how to reach optimal health. Blessings Dr. Daphne Maxwell “Are Vaccines Safe?” Monday July 19th, 2010 @ 7pm @ LifeSpring Chiropractic.

| Solving The Diabetic Dilemma |
| 05.07.2010 05:22:36 | |
|
Diabetes IS Reversible According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC), the diabetes “epidemic” in the US does not show any signs of slowing down. One out of every 4 people that you know will get diabetes, and of those people, more than 50% don’t know that they have it. By only responding to the “symptom” of the diabetes, which is to lower the blood sugar directly, the CAUSE as to why the blood sugar is elevated in the first place continues to be ignored (Insulin resistance). The problem is that the most common meds used today for managing type 2 diabetes are designed to suppress normal liver function (Metformin), hyper-stimulate an insulin-depleted pancreas (Glucotrol, Prandin, Starlix), convert excess blood glucose into fat cells (Avandia & Actos), or have the side effect that increases risk of heart attack by 43% (Avandia, Actos). Here is the life-saving question: When you get your annual physicals, why doesn’t your doctor measure your healthy insulin (closer to the cause), than elevated sugar levels (symptom focus)? Which blood test do you think the drug companies would rather you show low levels in to justify being on their drugs for the rest of your life? Guess who writes the drug prescription for you to fill and purchase at your local pharmacy? There is no profit for teaching you HOW to follow healthier habits that has been clinically proven to reverse type-2 diabetes. Dr Ron Rosedale MD, one of the leading authorities on diabetes and cardiovascular disease, even coined the term “Doctor Induced Exacerbation (D.I.E)” to describe how conventional medicine is causing people living with type 2-diabetes to have their pancreas eventually shut down and develop type 1-diabetes. The current clinical evidence supports the fact that Type-2 diabetes is reversible through eliminating all sugars and grains from the diet, increasing Omega-3 fats, and increasing intensity/resistance of exercise (not duration) to increase lean body mass. If you currently have type 2 diabetes and don’t where to start making the changes to reverse your condition, then start by following the 5 essentials that allow you to live maximized health for a lifetime. Just start by simply following at least 3 of the 5 key essentials for that we teach in our clinic: 1. Follow the Advanced Diet Plan which is designed to repair damaged cells that don’t allow insulin to function properly, thus allowing sugar to stay elevated in the blood stream 2. Get adjusted regularly to ensure you have maximum nerve supply flowing to the pancreas through the C1 and T5-T9 spinal levels, thus allowing the organ to function well and continuously heal itself 3. Increase lean body mass through regular “Burst Training” – a high intensity workout over a short period of time (30 second work-rest intervals, for a minimum of 3 minutes a day). More muscle tissue growing will mean your body will have a place to burn excess blood sugar, rather than storing it as additional fat. Eliminating the hidden toxins in foods and changing HOW you view the emotional stressors in your life, are essential to help regulate insulin so you can live the rest of your life without any life diabetes medications. Who needs to know this information?...EVERYONE!...Help us reach out to the people you know and care about who might be suffering, merely because “they just don’t know”….

| Learned Hopelessness |
| 18.06.2010 08:37:01 | |
|
In my first two years in undergrad, as I was headed towards a medical degree, I took a whole lot of psychology classes. I assumed most problems with getting people well would revolve around mindsets and emotions. (It turned out that I was right.) In many of my classes, we had to review some horrible animal studies - studies that would surely be shut down if PETA found out about them. Several of these studies involved putting food and/or freedom in front of an animal. When the animal would move toward the food or toward freedom, it would receive a nasty jolt of electricity. With enough shocks and time, that animal no longer attempted to either meet its needs or pursue freedom. It gave up; overwhelmed, over-stressed, and permanently deterred by pain of the shock. If you have any goals at all, especially big ones, you're going to run into challenges, conflict, opposition, resistance, failure, rejection, and struggle... Stress. In other words, you'll likely get "shocked" any time you go for anything worth having. Suffer enough shocks, enough "stress", and unfortunately, eventually you'll believe you can't or that it's not worth it. Over time, you learnhopelessness. Stress creates a measurable effect on your ability to remember, learn, function, and hope. The more intense the stress, the greater the damage. In war time, battlefront situations can create enough stress in short period of time to brainwash someone into hopelessness. That is an obvious example where anyone would expect that result. It's more insidious than that for the typical person in that it happens more gradually and almost unconsciously. Daily stresses, over time, can brainwash anyone into hopelessness and despair; brainwash them into being a limited person. The saddest story ever told is what "Might've been;" the life we could have lived if we hadn't let the "shocks" or the stress deter us. When we are brainwashed, we believe the lie of hopelessness that our problems, our "shocks," are quitting points that can't be overcome. In reality, the problems we face are not stop signs, but guide posts on the path of life, learning, and success. How this looks today, from a health care perspective, is that people succumb to hopelessness and give up when it comes to their mental and physical wellness. This quitting looks like only 13% of Americans exercising, 60% of Americans overweight, 30% morbidly obese, and medicating our hopelessness with anti-depressants. Outside of health care, learned hopelessness is at the core and very much responsible for the job and economic crisis. Learned hopelessness makes it so most people don't believe in their dreams, and worse, don't know that they don't believe in their dreams anymore. They wouldn't recognize their dreams, by this point, if they came and kissed them in the face. Which is, in fact, what their dreams are doing. Let us help you turn what "might've been" into what will be! Tags: Hits: 7 | Read more... |

| Total Food Makeover Wrap-up...June 5th @ Healthy Home Market |
| 09.06.2010 04:22:44 | |
|
This was a very POWERFUL workshop to be a part of! Powerful because it equipped those who attended with the tools to transform their health, step by step, and a plan of action that is easily to implement. First, we had to create a paradigm shift in the minds of people who are taught to limiting beliefs that prevent us from succeeding. "I Can't"..."it's too hard".... "I failed before" .... "It will never work"..."i'm too busy"...etc, are examples of limiting beliefs that invade our minds. "I can", "I will", and "I want' are empowering beliefs that will set us up for success when you apply the tools for the Food Makeover in your day to day life. The next step involved dubunking the most common myths that entrap us within the failing US Medical Model: Myths such as:
We completely debunked all these myths with the most current scientific evidence available. We also introduced everyone to 2 different types of diet plans, the Core Diet (for anyone and everyone), and the Advanced Diet (for those with diabetes, leptin resistance, high blood pressure, high triglycerides or living with toxicity). All the details we provided in the 3-hour workshop are laid out in an easy-to-follow template written in the Maximized Living Nutrition Plan. Pick one up today! The book is available online to purchase, and is available at a discount for Total Food Makeover participants at 15% off. Call or email us for the coupon code. Consider this to be one of the most important steps you can make to change your life. Allow us to show you the way. Tags: Hits: 24 | Read more... |

| Is There Energy In Your Life? |
| 20.04.2010 15:44:19 | |
|
LIFE IS STAGNANT WITHOUT ENERGY
If you take the time to interview 100 individuals that have made it to 65 and asked them, what is the most important aspect to your life at your age. Over 90% of them would say their quality of life. When was the last time you took the time to evaluate what your quality of life is? Do you wake up with the energy you did when you were 25?????? Can you say that at the end of the day you feel like exercising or do you feel like you need the couch????? Have you made it to the point where you have blamed it on your age at 42 -52 or even 60?????? Have you gotten to the point where you do not remember what it felt like to be vibrant and alive?????? It seems that America has become the Poster Child for human beings that are not satisfied with their state of well being. At the top of the list are how they feel and their lack of ENERGY. Do not worry you are not in a boat by yourself. Most are simply not satisfied with their energy levels or perception of life. We see this by the amount of medications and drugs that are being taken in the United States to treat how we feel. According to the New York Times best selling book ONE MINUTE WELLNESS. The World Health Organizations estimates that America spends more money on medical care that any other country on the planet. We spend practically double what the #2 country spends. Most of this is on Medications to make us feel better. The answer for Energy and well being is obviously not drugs, medications caffeine and energy pills. What could be the answer????????
