Believe you can and you’re halfway there

Thu, Jul 07, 2016

Last July my friend Louise and I decided to take on the challenge of completing an Ironman – a 3.8k swim, 180k cycle, 42k run, raced in that order and in one day. We were both members of the Galway Triathlon Club but I hadn’t yet completed any triathlons and Louise only a few short distance ones. However the idea of a challenge appealed to us both and the fact that it would be held on our doorstep sold it to us. I remember doubting whether I would be physically able to complete such a long event. We did some research, talked to some other more experienced triathletes, and picked out a 30 week training plan which we began in November.

Thu, Jun 30, 2016

Your metabolism controls the results from your diet and exercise. It does not matter how good you are with your food and exercise, metabolism faults severely limit your results and cause the stubborn fat on your stomach, hips, thighs, and backs of arms.

Combat anxiety and depression with Care Cure Acupuncture

Thu, Jun 30, 2016

If you have never experienced mental illness, bouts of depression or anxiety can be all too easily dismissed as someone’s bad day. But for those individuals suffering from anxiety, insomnia, crying spells, worry, memory loss, and apathy, depression is a crippling disability.

Care Cure Acupuncture takes this condition very seriously and strives to identify the root cause of the imbalance and restore emotional and mental health. To do this consultants look at the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) approach, which believes that the heart and the liver control mental activity. When these channels are not functioning the organs are affected by sadness and the brain is unable to co-ordinate its mental activities.
