In the video below I explain why trauma lies at the root cause of symptoms associated with a diagnoses of Parkinson’s disease.

Parkinsons Disease and Trauma 

The relationship between trauma and Parkinson’s Disease is an area of growing interest and research. Trauma, especially head trauma, has been studied for its potential links to neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson’s.

1. Head Trauma and Parkinson’s RiskResearch has suggested that repeated head injuries, such as those sustained in contact sports or accidents,  increase the risk of developing Parkinson’s Disease. The connection is thought to be related to chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE). This condition is associated with repetitive head trauma that can lead to neurodegenerative changes similar to those seen in Parkinson’s.

   For instance, studies have shown that athletes in high-contact sports, like football and boxing, are at a higher risk of developing Parkinson’s later in life. This may be due to the cumulative impact of repeated head injuries, which can lead to long-term damage to the brain’s structure and function.

2. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Parkinson’s DiseasePTSD, a condition that can develop after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event, has also been studied for its potential link to Parkinson’s Disease. Some researchers speculate that the chronic stress associated with PTSD could contribute to neuro-inflammation, which might accelerate neurodegenerative processes.

   The stress response system and the inflammation resulting from chronic stress might interact with the brain’s dopamine system, potentially influencing the onset or progression of Parkinson’s Disease. However, this relationship is complex and still under investigation, as PTSD is known to have diverse and multifaceted effects on the brain and body.

The reason anxiety becomes so difficult to tame is that we are not grounded. Energy tends to  hang around the top of our body rather than the bottom. This makes us continually anxious, uneasy and unsteady.

Here is a simple technique which takes only 2 minutes which you can activate anytime to reduce anxieties that inflame symptoms. Do these simple exercises with me. You can do them sitting or standing.

Unwinding Other Ways: Finding Serenity in a Hectic World

In a world that’s always on, where emails ding and social media never sleeps, the ability to unwind can seem like an elusive luxury. But lunwinding is crucial not just for our mental health but for our overall well-being. It’s about more than just taking a break; it’s about reconnecting with ourselves and finding balance amidst the chaos. Here’s how to master the art of unwinding and reclaim your peace of mind.

Understanding the Need for Unwinding

Before diving into strategies, it’s essential to recognize why unwinding is so important. Constant stress can lead to burnout, affect our physical health, and erode our emotional resilience. Unwinding is more than relaxation; it’s a necessary practice to reset our mental and emotional state, enabling us to face challenges with renewed energy and clarity.

Create a Sanctuary

One of the first steps to unwinding is to create a space where you can escape the demands of daily life. This doesn’t have to be a grand gesture. It could be a cozy corner of your home with a comfy chair, soft lighting, and a few of your favorite items. The key is to make it a place where you can let go of stress and focus on yourself.

Unwinding with a Digital Detox

Our screens are often the biggest source of stress and distraction. Scheduling regular breaks from technology can be incredibly beneficial. Try setting aside specific times during the day to unplug from devices. Use this time to engage in activities that are genuinely relaxing and fulfilling, such as reading a book, going for a walk, or practicing a hobby.

Practice Mindfulness and Meditation

Mindfulness and meditation are powerful tools for unwinding. They help bring your attention to the present moment, reducing the noise of past regrets and future anxieties. Even a few minutes a day can make a significant difference. Start with simple breathing exercises or guided meditations and gradually explore different techniques that resonate with you.

Get Moving

Exercise is a well-known stress reliever. Physical activity helps release endorphins, which are natural mood lifters. You don’t need to run a marathon; even a gentle yoga session or a brisk walk can help clear your mind and reduce tension. Find a form of movement you enjoy and incorporate it into your routine.

Unwinding by indulging in Creative Outlets

Creativity can be a powerful way to unwind. Engaging in creative activities like painting, writing, or playing music allows you to express yourself and tap into a different part of your brain. It’s less about the end result and more about the process of creation and the sense of accomplishment it brings.

Cultivate a Relaxing Routine

Establishing a routine can help signal to your body and mind that it’s time to unwind. This might include a series of activities that you perform regularly before bed, such as reading, taking a warm bath, or practicing gentle stretches. Consistency helps train your body to recognize when it’s time to relax and prepare for restful sleep.

Nurture Social Connections

Sometimes unwinding means connecting with others. Whether it’s spending time with loved ones, having a meaningful conversation, or simply enjoying a shared activity, social connections can provide comfort and perspective. Just be mindful of choosing interactions that uplift and energize you rather than drain your energy.

Practice Self-Compassion

Be gentle with yourself. The pressures of modern life can make it challenging to fully unwind, and that’s okay. Recognize your efforts and celebrate small victories. Self-compassion involves acknowledging that it’s normal to have off days and that taking time for yourself is both valuable and necessary.

Unwinding through Nature

Nature has a remarkable ability to soothe and rejuvenate. Whether it’s a walk in the park, a hike in the woods, or simply sitting by a body of water, natural settings can help calm your mind and refresh your spirit. Make time to immerse yourself in nature and appreciate its beauty and tranquility.

Conclusion

Unwinding isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution, but rather a personalized journey towards finding what helps you relax and recharge. By creating a sanctuary, embracing digital detox, and incorporating mindfulness, movement, and creative outlets into your life, you can cultivate a deeper sense of peace. Remember, unwinding is not a luxury but a necessity, and making it a regular part of your life will lead to greater overall well-being and satisfaction.

So, take a deep breath, find your favorite relaxation method, and make unwinding a priority. Your mind and body will thank you.

Has your doctor recommended that you take Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10 for Parkinson’s) along with your regular medications? Many doctors do. CoQ10 has been found deficient in persons diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. Some health care professionals I have interviewed report some  medications can deplete CoQ10 in the body.

CoQ10 is no doubt a key anti-aging nutrient. It prevents free radical damage to the DNA in the mitochondria. It is also usually recommended for persons with heart issues. A 10 year longitudinal study published in the European Journal of Heart Failure reported that taking  CoQ10 improved the survival for patients who confront the constant threat of heart failure.

So it is important to start taking a CoQ10 supplement. But which which brand? There are so many choices on the market today.

I have hesitated to offer a recommendation for Coq10 until I discovered recently the research behind a Co-Q10 product produced by Pharma Nord of Denmark. First, let me explain why so many of the CoQ10 choices eat up your pocket book but offer no benefit whatsoever.

Most Coenzyme Q10 products sold today have negligible absorption rates. We are talking 1% at best. Why is this so? The melting point of CoQ10 is 10 degrees above body temperature. Most of the supplements you buy – even those in oil, have crystallized.

Pharma Nord https://www.pharmanord.com has developed the most studied brand of CoQ10 globally. Their proprietary heat treatment process greatly facilitates absorption. More than 75 studies have now been published that document its superior absorption when compared to other brands.

The price is also reasonable. You can order the Pharma Nord Co-Q10 directly on their website. Their professional staff generously set up a 20% discount for members of my audience. You can claim this discount only if you ship to a USA destination. Enter the coupon code “PRQ10WEB“ to claim a 20% discount (not case sensitive). The 20% discount will soon be available to those of you will live in countries other than the US.

Check out the research for yourself. It is extensive and impressive.
