Tuesday Morning Wiper Blade Sensor And The Flat Tire…

The Rain in Maine Falls Mainly On The Head Of Portland. My flattening tire that was waiting for me with a little yellow light on my dashboard was nothing unusual for a Tuesday morning.  I was just happy that my windshield wiper sensor and dashboard controls were working. My dash touch screen worked and I was able to tap my way to WMPG within seconds.  I was dry and cozy on my way to work only periodically wondering what would happen if my low tire decided to spontaneously explode at 60mph on a bridge.  It didn’t happen and the thoughts were surrounded by love of rain, technology and a comfortable body.   Automotive technology abounds and there is something comforting about a dry place with lots of windows while it’s pouring outside.  All that technology pales in comparison to the performance of our own body.  Did you know that the average speed of nerve conduction is 120mph and it gets up to 250mph in some nerve fibers?  Your brain is moving your eyes over this text effortlessly and at speeds that should blow your mind and inspire awe.  Compromise that connection though and performance decreases.  Spinal inflammation and misalignment...

3 Reasons You Should Eat Salad For Breakfast   A good dose of BS (breakfast salad) each morning is valuable in a number of ways.  Whether you are trying to lose weight, get more vitamins, eat differently or have more energy, BS is a potential solution for you.   I don’t only recommend the BS, I live it.  Every night I throw a medium size container of salad together, twice, so that I have 2 salads for the next day.  Spring mix, avocado, a scallion, cucumber, baby carrots and some tomato. Another container holds my self made vinaigrette.  I’ve tested this breakfast many times and I only regret NOT doing it.   1. BS leaves you feeling less heavy.  The difference between a breakfast with eggs, meat, toast and juice when compared to BS is huge.  I just ate some BS and I feel full but I feel light, not weighted down by oils, fats and chemicals from processed meats.   2. BS starts the day off right – Mentally and Physically.  Ever had a rough Monday morning and it takes at least a day for your week to get on track?  BS starts your day off right, you...

Vertigo in Portland, Maine   If you think that you are suffering from vertigo the sooner you get answers, the sooner you get solutions.
