Healing with Gemstones
At the expense of shooting myself in the foot, I will say that gemstones are not a substitute for medication, a doctor’s care, or insulin. Gemstone healing is merely a funny aside for me, although it is an interest I have as well. Some people believe that gemstones have healing properties when you put them on your body or hold them in your hand. Black tourmaline has helped me bounce other people’s negativity off my energy field, at least that experience made me see there is something to this gemstone business after all. And some say that it “takes a conscious effort to open your heart and mind to the power of crystal healing.” Source.

Stress is the number one killer in our society today. Stress can have a huge negative effect on the body to the point of death. The reason for this is due to the high amounts of the hormone Cortisol that is created in the body when someone is stressed to the point which leads to anxiety and depression. Scary? It sure is.

Overcoming Insomnia
I know I lot of people suffer from Insomnia. I'm one of them. Started when I was younger, I think I was about eight or nine. I found myself not being able to sleep, and when I did it I would only sleep for about three to four hours. I never understood why until I got older. I tried keeping a fan on at night, having the TV on, putting on a movie, even tried reading a book I didn't enjoy. But I kept finding myself not getting a full night sleep.

How To Survive Tonsillectomy
A tonsillectomy is a major surgery that is done to remove the tonsils. This surgery is done for many reasons, but it is usually completed for two main reasons, although there are reasons other than the main two. These are due to constant infection, and for sleep apnea that disrupts sleep patterns. I know someone who had theirs removed due to a growth on one their tonsils, causing them to remove both tonsils.
