Update on Haiti Relief Effort - Help for Orphans International

noreply@blogger.com (Jhen) — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 12:06:00 +0000

Dear Friends and New Friends,

This is my personal update that I want to share with you today. If you didn't read my email from 2 days ago it is at the bottom of this one.

Help for Orphans International has a volunteer named Jonathan on the ground in Haiti right now. He is a pilot, personally using his own plane. I hear directly from Jonathan everyday.

He said there is a BIG need for morphine here in the hospitals (or at least oral narcotics). They are doing amputations without it. That might be the single most important item to distribute now. Apparently there are quantities in Port Au Prince but the army has taken over and distribution is very slow. Pass the word.

As I mentioned before, Jonathan has this knowledge because he has the only small aircraft on the ground in Haiti right now, which is shuttling in supplies and help. Due to his tireless efforts he has been able to bring medical personnel, supplies, food, water and medication directly to the people who need it most. It is because of the money we raise that enables him to continue to pay for fuel and supplies.

I want you to think about this for a minute. Can you imagine if your child, your brother, or your grandchild was in severe pain for days on end, with no medical care? Can you imagine your child losing ALL the family they have ever known and left to fend for themselves on the streets, surrounded by decomposing bodies? This is the situation for so many in Haiti.

These children need our help. I realize I may be sounding very dramatic here but this is the honest truth. I need every one of you to understand and pass on how severely help is needed there. Most of us, if not all, take for granted the food and water we have at our disposal. So many lives are being lost in Haiti – today - because they are lacking the simple essentials.

So, please, give whatever you can. A few dollars from everyone reading this will make a huge difference. Give up the Starbucks for just one week.

Text "support orphans" to 20222 to give $5 on your cell bill.

To make a larger contribution go to www.helpfororphans.org and click “Donate now" and most of all PLEASE spread the word to EVERYONE you know!

See our Press release released early this morning: http://www.prweb.com/releases/2010/01/prweb3505184.htm

Thank you again from the bottom of my heart!!

How To Help Haiti

noreply@blogger.com (Jhen) — Wed, 03 Feb 2010 12:05:00 +0000

Hi,

I am urging you to please read this message and respond accordingly and then to please forward this on to all your contacts.

As you may know, I am fortunate to be working for Help for Orphans International, a charity founded by Sarah Ehrlich four years ago. She has done a lot of work helping orphans in Kenya and is now solely focused on helping the orphans affected by the earthquake in Haiti.

I don't like to spread bad news but we have a volunteer from our organization who's been on the ground there since over a week ago. Words cannot describe the devastation that he has described to me. Imagine a little child losing ALL their family, wounded, no place to live and with little food/water. This is TRULY the situation.

Sarah and myself are going to Haiti in the next few days to raise awareness and to strategize HOW we are most effectively going to help. We will also be purchasing food/formula/diapers in the Dominican Republic to bring to the most hard hit areas.

Our volunteer there named Jonathan flew his 4 seater aircraft 2000 miles from Sag Harbor, NY and is shuttling back and forth between neighboring areas bringing supplies and medical personnel to the most desperate areas. Today he texted me that he was enroute to bring saws and morphine to a medical unit there.

The only way we can keep him doing this is to continue to send him funds.

Do NOT think that they have ENOUGH help because they don't. What we are doing IS making a difference! Jonathan says that he has the only small aircraft shuttling that he has seen. Additionally, because his aircraft is so small he has been cleared to land at Port au Prince airport.

We can NOT continue to do what we're doing without more donations! There's just NO way! Sadly, the surrounding areas have taken advantage of this tragedy and the cost of fuel and food etc.. has skyrocketed! All your donations are 100% tax deductible and you can know that we are actually USING your money RIGHT NOW to make a difference! Anything helps!

Here's how to donate:

1. Click this now Help For Orphans, then select "donate now" on the top left navigation.

2. Text 20222 from you cell phone and type "support orphans" and you will be charged $5 on your next cell phone bill.

3. Call me at 917.704.2131.

noreply@blogger.com (Jhen) — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 01:49:00 +0000

Wow! I just finished reading the power points for Wednesday's webinar with my friend the ex-fund manager.

And, I've got to say, that in all my years in the trading business, this is the most content rich webinar I have ever seen. No hype, only hard core trading truths that not everyone is going to like.

Things like the fact that he and his hedge fund buddies used to hunt stops. Now he's teaching "civilians" how to make money off those hedge hunters.

If you are new to trading, this hour could save you thousands of dollars over the school of hard knocks.

Those who don't get information like this risk having their whole investment account being wiped out, before they've really had a chance to trade.

For trading veterans I can guarantee you that the advanced position sizing tip is a golden nugget you'll use for increasing profits and decreasing risks in the years to come. This one tip could double your profits regardless of what your entry system is. The one tip alone can turn any average system into a winning system.

We'll cover:

Hormone pills may make lung cancer more deadly

noreply@blogger.com (Jhen) — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 16:30:00 +0000

ORLANDO, Fla. - Doctors are reporting a new potential danger for women taking hormones for menopause symptoms: The pills may make lung cancer more deadly.

Research shows that women who had lung cancer and were taking combination estrogen and progestin pills were more than twice as likely to die from the disease as women who weren't taking hormones.

Doctors already advise women to limit hormone use as much as possible. The study does not suggest that women on hormones are more likely to develop lung cancer.

The results were presented at a cancer conference in Orlando Saturday.

Web frenzy over T-shirt

noreply@blogger.com (Jhen) — Thu, 28 May 2009 08:48:00 +0000

Something strange happened this week in Amazon.com's apparel section.

For a day or two, a black T-shirt featuring an image of three wolves baying at a full moon claimed the top slot at the online store's clothing bestseller list,, beating out the usual, unremarkable mix of Levi's 505 regular-fit jeans, Crocs clogs and Adidas running shoes.

Three Wolf Moon T-Shirt, Available in Various Sizes

And really, why wouldn't you buy the shirt, which is priced from $7.65 to $17.93, depending on your size? Just read the long and growing list of customer testimonials promising earth-shattering experiences or psychedelic vision quests upon purchase.

"I bought this shirt and instantly old girlfriends started calling me again," wrote one reviewer."My doctor says the cancer has gone into remission," wrote another. "

Thanks for changing my life!"The shirt's page at Amazon.com had quietly existed for years without much comment, but after a snarky link from CollegeHumor.com, the "Three Wolf Moon" shirt suddenly sprouted hundreds of five-star ratings.

Reviewers have dreamed up epics about its powers, weaving fantasies involving everything from the Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland to the pop group Duran Duran.

As the joke caught on and got passed around the Web, Photoshopped spoofs of the shirt started appearing online -- featuring corgi puppies, spiders or haddock instead of the now-famous wolves.

CollegeHumor.com, a comedy site started in 1999 by a couple of high school friends who grew up together in Timonium, Md., also claimed victory this week for rigging an online poll run by the state of Nebraska to select a new license-plate design.

The site urged its readers to vote for what it deemed the most boring design available to Nebraska drivers. That gray-and-white plate won.Officials in Nebraska said they monitored Web traffic to screen out visitors coming directly from the humor site, but CollegeHumor.com was still, credibly, claiming the joke a success this week.

"Together we pranked the entire automobile-owning population of Nebraska," wrote a CollegeHumor.com editor, in a Wednesday posting. "Congratulations."

This type of online rabble-rousing appears to be catching on more than ever over the past year, said Tim Hwang, the organizer of ROFLCon, a convention dedicated to celebrating Internet memes.

After all, another Web-based prank crossed over into the real world just last month when a 21-year-old college student, known by the online moniker "m00t," sailed to the top of Time's "most influential person" list in an online poll, beating out the likes of President Obama and Oprah Winfrey.

Gathering nearly 17 million votes, the world's "most influential" person is the founder of another jokey Web culture site, 4chan.org, whose proprietor is known offline by the name Christopher Poole. If you don't get why the shirt, and its reviews, are so funny, don't worry.

CollegeHumor.com co-founder Josh Abramson said it's a case where the shirt is so uncool that it's cool."A lot of things that become popular on the Web are based around just being ironic and being an inside joke," Abramson said.

"This resonates with a geeky, hip crowd that is very Web-savvy. When something resonates with that circle, crazy things can happen."Abramson said his team had considered licensing the wolf shirt for sale.

CollegeHumor.com, which had 7 million unique Web visitors last month, also has an online store that sells T-shirts with ironic catchphrases and designs, called BustedTees.com. But it appears that the site may have been a bit slow to catch on to its own meme.

"We're kicking ourselves that we didn't," he said.The New Hampshire company that makes the "Three Wolf Moon" shirt said that it doesn't generally mind being the butt of this joke."You have to be able to laugh at yourself," said Michael McGloin, a partner and art director at the Mountain, who added that he finds some of the reviews to be "freaking hilarious."

The company certainly doesn't mind the shirt's recent uptick in sales: "Three Wolf Moon" is sold out, and the Mountain has started printing up a fresh batch.

It seems that the wolf theme was growing in popularity even before the Internet hipsters descended, McGloin said."Wolf shirts are super hot right now," he said. "It's the year of the wolf, I guess."

How Menopause Can Decrease Sexual Desire For Women Over 60

noreply@blogger.com (Jhen) — Fri, 15 May 2009 14:52:00 +0000

There are some significant changes that take place in a woman's life. One of them is menopause. This marks the end of her ability to conceive a child. There will be no more menstrual cycles once the woman is in complete menopause. Yet it can take years to go from the start of menopause to completely finishing it. Most women start the process around 45 and finish around 60. It can be sooner or later though as each woman is different.

There is a common misconception that women who have gone through menopause no longer have any sexual desire. They may continue to engage in the activity to keep their partner happy, but they don't get any pleasure out of it. This is certainly not the truth though.

Many women over the age of 60 are involved in very fulfilling sexual relationships. They love not having to worry about their period. They also don't have to worry about an unwanted pregnancy very late in life. This new found freedom for them means they are able to fully focus on the act of sexual activity and not the various repercussions of it.

Some women do experience a drop in their sexual desire though after menopause. Many women experience problems with the vagina being dry after menopause. This can make it hard for them to get pleasure out of sexual activity. There are some great products on the market though that will allow you to moisturize the vagina without any negative side effects.

It is a good idea for a woman with such issues to see a gynecologist for a complete evaluation though. They may be able to help come up with a natural remedy that can prevent ongoing issues having to be addressed with it. For many women, dealing with vaginal dryness can cause a mental block with sexual intercourse.

They may connect it with being undesirable now that they are in their 60's. This low self confidence can cause women to shy away from sexual intercourse as well. Being able to really enjoy your body and your sexual desires when you are over 60 is very important. It will encourage you to do what you can to be able to bring back a high level of sexual desire to your life.

Sometimes something over the counter though isn't enough for a woman to get back the sexual desire she once had. Your doctor may offer you supplements of hormones in the form of estrogen. Since the level of it in the body drops dramatically due to menopause, replacing it definitely can be helpful.

Menopause doesn't have to hinder your sex life though for women over 60 years of age. If you enjoy sex and you want to continue doing so, there are remedies out there that can help. Don't be embarrassed to discuss the issue with your doctor either. They deal with such issues all the time. They will know how to help you get back to where you want to be sexually.

For many older couples, menopause can throw a wrench into what was once a very enjoyable part of their intimate relationship. It is important to discuss what has taken place. A woman doesn't want her partner to assume the lack of sexual responsiveness has anything to do with them not being attractive anymore. Find a good solution that works for you so that menopause won't stop you from engaging your sexual relationship.

Ways For Men Over 60 To Deal With Erectile Dysfunction

noreply@blogger.com (Jhen) — Tue, 12 May 2009 14:49:00 +0000

As a man gets older the ability to get and to maintain an erection can be harder. Some men find it just takes a bit more foreplay. They may also find they can't get a second erection soon after like they once could. This is normal and most couples find it to be an issue they can easily deal with. They are still able to have a very satisfying sex life in spite of such minor issues.

However, some males end up with what is know as erectile dysfunction. This can become a serious issue that affects the individual both mentally and physically. At first they may only have the problem once in a while. It can be embarrassing but couples can deal with it. The partner needs to be very encouraging and supportive so it won't become a mental issue the next time sex is initiated.

For other men though erectile dysfunction can end up being a very serious problem. It can result in them becoming angry or upset. It can also lead to depression as many men do associate their manhood with their ability to have sexual intercourse. There are many reasons why a man may suffer from erectile dysfunction when they are 60 or older.

Medical concerns are the number one factor. Heart disease, high blood pressure, and even diabetes can all cause erectile dysfunction. Seeing a professional about what is going on is very important. They can help prescribe medications that can help with the issue. Sometimes it turns out to be the medications that you are on that make it hard to get an erection. The doctor can help to determine the cause and get the person back on track.

Mentally a man can prevent himself from being able to get an erection. Issues about not being able to in the past can certainly cause a great deal of anxiety. Not feeling attractive or worrying about being able to perform can also be a problem. Talking to your partner about your fears can help to alleviate them.

Changing lifestyle habits can really make a difference too. Some men over 60 aren't able to get an erection due to heavily smoking or drinking. Working to get rid of these habits can help the issue of erectile dysfunction to take care of itself. Likewise, changing your diet and losing weight can be helpful as well.

There are several reasons why males over 60 years of age may be experiencing erectile dysfunction. Yet it doesn't have to mean the very end of your sexual lifestyle. There are ways to deal with it that can get you back on track again. Be willing to try different things in order to get to the bottom of your problem.

One of the most frustrating things for men with erectile dysfunction is that it can take time to discover what is going to make a difference. You have to be willing to follow the doctor's orders. You have to be open to trying a course of action for a couple of months and then exploring another one if that one wasn't effective for you.

Sex for men over 60 is still very important and it can be very fulfilling. Don't be afraid to look at your lifestyle to see where you can make changes. Go to a doctor you can trust and you are comfortable with. This way you can share your feelings and discover what your options are for effectively dealing with erectile dysfunction.

Some of the different treatments that a doctor can offer include various medications. With advances in technology there are also implants that are surgically placed inside of the penis. Counseling can be very effective when the doctor feels there may be a mental link to the erectile dysfunction. Exploring the various options can help you to be able to get and maintain an erection again like you did when you were younger.

Natural Ways To Rejuvenate Your Sex Life For Those Older Than 60

noreply@blogger.com (Jhen) — Fri, 08 May 2009 14:45:00 +0000

If you want to have a better sex life later in life then you do now, you can work to rejuvenate it. When was the last time you really took some time to pamper yourself? If it has been a while then take some time to do so. Go get a new outfit and a hair cut or color. Buy some new make up and plan a romantic dinner for you and your partner.

Allow yourself some time to fantasize about sex during the day as well. Take a nice warm bath before bed. You can picture what you will do with your partner when you are done with the bath. Leave them a detailed note in the morning about plans for the evening. It can certainly make a huge difference in the way you see each other romantically. Keep it fresh and alive so that no one gets bored with the sexual activity that is taking place.

Take a look at your mental well being as well. If you aren't in the best of moods then do what you can to perk yourself up. Sometimes seeing a professional counselor can help you out as well. Sometimes there are issues not dealt with in the relationship that lead to tension and resentment. If you can get them on the table and out of the way your sex life will likely improve.

Taking care of yourself physically is important as well. Don't let yourself get lazy or overweight. Stay active and eat well so you can stay at a healthy weight. You may need to work with a dietician to plan healthier meals. It is never too late in life to make such lifestyle changes. It does take some planning and commitment but your will find there are many great benefits from it.

Get rid of those nasty habits such as excessively drinking alcohol. In the long run it will lower your sexual desire and performance, especially for men. Smoking is also a factor that will become more of an issue as you get older. Being comfortable in your own skin and with how you look is a great way to get you in the mood to initiate sexual activity with your partner as well. They will find it to be a tremendous turn on that you are attracted to them.

Sometimes just changing the location of where sex will take place can make it better. If you are always doing the act at home, take a weekend vacation to some place romantic. You can also use a different room in the house to spice it up a bit. There are books on new positions and even on romancing your partner to look at as well. You may find talking honestly with your partner about how to please them can really make a difference.

There are herbal pills for both men and women on the market as well. Since you can buy them over the counter at most health food stores people assume they are 100% safe to take. Still, you need to consult with your doctor first. You may not be healthy enough to engage in sexual activity. You certainly don't want to risk your health for sex so getting a full assessment from a professional is the best place to start.

When You Are Older Than 60 And Sex Is No Longer An Interest To You

noreply@blogger.com (Jhen) — Tue, 05 May 2009 14:42:00 +0000

Don't assume that just because you will one day be 60 years of age that sex won't interest you. There isn't going to be a day when you wake up and say that is the last time you will be engaging in such events. There is plenty of talk about those over 60 that pursue an active and healthy sex life. Yet not everyone falls into that category. There are some that are just no longer interested in it.

You do owe it to yourself though to find out why you aren't interested in having sex. For many it has to do with the loss of a partner due to death. They may have been with that individual for a very long time. They simply can't imagine themselves becoming intimate with anyone else. This is understandable and not something that should be viewed as out of the ordinary.

There is no set time frame for a person to recover from such events. Eventually you may feel like you are ready to see someone new. It may be within the year or several years down the road. Listen to your own feelings and follow your heart. If you are struggling to let go of the past, professional counseling may be something you can benefit from.

There are those who never really enjoyed sex in the first place. They continued to do it because they felt it was expected from them. They may have wanted to have children or just to keep the peace with their spouse. They may be at a point in their life where they just don't feel that sex is that important anymore. They also aren't going to compromise their stand on it for anyone else any longer.

Some individuals are very concerned about their physical appearance. They go to great lengths as they get older to look their very best. They chose their clothing very carefully so they can accent their good qualities and hide their flaws. So they aren't about to show someone what they look like naked.

Medical issues are one of the main reasons why some people over the age of 60 just don't find sex to be of interest. They may be very ill and it is a fight daily to go about their normal activities. Others find they have a very low libido due to their medical problems or even as a side effect of their medications. Therefore the issue of sex just isn't one that matters a great deal to them.

Likewise, if they have a partner who is suffering from various medical problems they may find that sex doesn't matter. They are more concerned with helping their partner to remain as comfortable as they possibly can. It takes tremendous strength to help someone with daily medical problems. It can be physically and mentally draining as well. Yet at the end of the day they are just thankful to continue having more time to share with that person.

When you are older than 60 and sex is no longer an interest to you, that is your own concern. You need to make sure you are truly happy with that decision though. If you find you are depressed about it or long for some type of sexual activity you need to see a doctor. There can be many reasons why a person isn't able to enjoy sex as they get older. There are numerous solutions that can be offered as well. If you aren't interested in them though you can still have wonderful and meaningful relationships.

You will just have to find a partner who isn't interested in sex either. Otherwise that different between the two of you is going to end up creating a great deal of tension. As long as both of you are fine with only being companions then it can work well for you. Sex isn't something anyone should feel pressured into at any age.

Are Prescription Medications A Good Option For Enjoying Sex When You Are In Your 60's?

noreply@blogger.com (Jhen) — Fri, 01 May 2009 13:06:00 +0000

While a person's mind may still want to have a strong and active sex life the body may not always be able to comply. There are some prescription medications out there that have proven to offer those over 60 help with such issues. For example those with diabetes or arthritis may find that they are in too much pain or don't have enough energy for sex.

However, with medication to control their diabetes and a good diet their energy levels increase. There are medications for arthritis too that can prevent the joints from swelling up. This means a person can go about activities including sex and not be in constant pain. It may be something that younger generations take for granted, but when you are physically in pain it can be almost impossible to enjoy the pleasures of sex.

One of the most common types of prescription drugs that men use to help them enjoy sex is Viagra. This is a type of pill that a man takes when he is mentally excited to have sex but the penis isn't getting or maintaining an erection. Many men have found Viagra and similar products have allowed them to have a very enjoyable sex life once again. Their age hasn't been able to stop them from making this important element part of their normal lifestyle.

The pill known as Cialis has also become very popular. This is because a man can take it and then be able to maintain erections when he is ready over the course of the next 36 hours. This means you don't have to plan the act of lovemaking such as you do with Viagra and similar types of prescription medications. It allows the process to be more natural and many men really enjoy having that control over their sexual activities.

There are similar types of prescription medication for women as well. One huge problem for them after menopause is a decrease in the hormone estrogen. As a result they may find they have very little interest in sex. Even if they engage in the act, they just aren't getting the level of pleasure out of it as they once did. Estrogen pills can be prescribed to help a woman gain her libido back.

Prescription medications may be a good option for you if you are older and you really want to improve your sex life. You will need to talk to your doctor about it so a complete assessment can be performed. Identifying the true reasons why you struggle to get an erection or why you aren't enjoying sexual activity is important so be honest with your answers.

There are certainly plenty of prescription medications offered today to help those over 60 be able to continue with a healthy and satisfying sex life. Keep in mind that some of them are a quite expensive though. There are also some side effects associated with each of them to be ready for. You may have to experiment with a variety of different types of prescription medications before you find the one that helps you get to the level of sexual activity you want in your life.

Prescription medications aren't the answer for everyone though. There many be too many health issues for you to consider using them. You may also find that the various side effects also make it difficult for you to enjoy sex. Never use prescription medications for someone else because you are too embarrassed to talk to your doctor about it.

You do owe it to yourself though to see if there is medication that can significantly improve your sex life into your 60's and beyond. There are plenty of people out there in this age group and beyond that find sex more enjoyable now than any other time in their life. Being able to continue engaging in the activity helps to keep them both healthy and happy.

Foods For Harder Erections

noreply@blogger.com (Jhen) — Sun, 22 Mar 2009 07:36:00 +0000

You are what you eat and simple diet changes can made to get harder erections and increased libido naturally and safely. Here we will look at the best foods for harder erections...

The first point to keep in mind is that you are what you eat and you need to cut out the inputs that cause erection problems which are - smoking, drinking and recreational drugs, either cut down or stop altogether.

Next as a general rule, cut out refined and processed foods as much as possible and eat as "naturally from the earth" as you can; these foods will simply have more nutritional value.

Now let's look at the foods you should include in your diet.

Oily Fish

One of the best foods for harder erections. The omega-3 fatty acids in oily fish enhance blood flow around the body and to the penis and strong blood flow is essential for a hard erection. Any of the following are good choices - salmon, mackerel, trout and fresh tuna. Try and have oily fish at least 3 times a week. It's also a rich source of selenium and zinc.

Zinc is known as the sex mineral and is needed for the production of testosterone. Around 50% of the selenium in a man is in the testes and seminal ducts; men lose selenium in semen, therefore you need to keep levels topped up.

Nuts

Don't like fish go nuts! Nuts such as almonds are a good source of essential fatty acids as well.

Eggs

You may not see it as a sexy food but it is! Eggs are high in vitamins B6 and B5; these help balance hormone levels and fight stress which leads to higher sex drive and harder erections.

Bananas

How to Enhance the Joy of Sex Beyond 60!

noreply@blogger.com (Jhen) — Wed, 18 Mar 2009 07:25:00 +0000

In order to discuss this topic, we need to take a little bit of time to establish that we are on the same page.

From the moment we have been born we have an innate knowing inside us about sex.

The fact that this is still dormant inside us doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Life is a journey and everything will be presented to us at the right timing.

When the farmer plants his crop, it needs nurturing and caring, so that the seedling can develop into its full glory.

It is important to know that from the moment we have been conceived, the thoughts, emotions and feelings our mother has around the topic sex, are being 'transmitted' into the foetus.

And a lot of people in the age group of 60 and beyond have been brought up with a sense of shame around the topic sex.

It was a 'forbidden' zone and depending on where you were located on the planet it was also being projected as something that was dirty.

Sex was an aspect of the duties you had to perform when in a marriage.

These projections and others will inhibit the enhancement and joy around a sexual experience.

These projections and the shame do undermine your Self Esteem.

Let's talk a bit more about this important issue of Self Esteem.

After all it will be a major contributing factor towards the issue on HOW to enhance the joy of sex beyond 60.

Seeking Self Esteem allows you to exist. Seeking Love allows you to transform.

In order to transform you have to exist. The problem arises when you look for the Self Esteem out there instead of inside yourself.

This is the way it has been taught to you.

To give you an example: You do not decide if you are a good child, that's up to the father and mother.

You do not decide if you are a good student, that's up to the teachers. And so on.

IT'S IS NEVER UP TO YOURSELF.

So over time you reinforce the message to yourself that you cannot trust yourself, but you can trust others!

Trust mother, she knows what is best for you.

Trust your teachers, they are teaching you the right things.

Trust the newspapers otherwise they wouldn't have printed it.

Your Ego wants to stay out of the limelight.

The Ego is opting for outside validation. So you are always searching out there in order to feel yourself good.

Outside validations are not bad, not wrong. The problem arises when you use this outside validation as the source for your SELF ESTEEM.

Some try to be perfect. A lot of people have an issue with growing older.

They look into the mirror and they observe a wrinkle here and there, and they observe some extra layers of fat, or they are too skinny.

Let's run to the plastic surgeon. And see if they can fix me and let me keep on looking as if I am 25.

There is nothing wrong with wanting to look and even requesting some help from a plastic surgeon. However the problem arises when we start to feed the negative ego.

Then we want to be perfect.

The results of this perfectionism are:

- Low creativity
- Low trust levels
- High guilt

Or the opposite is created such as using age as an excuse that it is all over and it doesn't matter anymore.

Would this process contribute towards enhancement the joy of sex beyond 60?

Then there is another topic which is important to realize. When you choose to enhance your sex life, it is also important that your physical chemistry is in balance.

We have sexual bodies and, more importantly, have a nervous system that concentrates nerve endings in our genitals (twice as many for females).

Society should have no shame or fear of experiencing the joy of sex.

Especially at an age when we are applying desire to practise and may be accustomed to sex, and what that experience is for us individually.

It is normal to feel various degrees of fear and shame about our sexuality because of the many ways society views it.

Sexuality is essentially our individual perceptions of our experience to sensual pleasure.

Allowing yourself to experience a heightened awareness to your sexual experience through your senses and hence through your nervous system, and then processing that through your brain allows you the ability to create the sexual experience that you desire.

Essentially you have the ability to turn yourself on or off once you learn to channel your sexual energies!

Nature can teach a lot about the beauty and the natural regeneration process. When we can accept the beauty of having a joyous sexual experience and allow the feelings to unfold, then this sexual experience is also regeneration for our level of energy and sense of well being we can produce.

How to enhance the joy of sex beyond 60 is a mixture of feeling good emotional, mental, spiritual and physical.

Depending on the personal situation you are in. You can be with a partner, or not. When for one or another reason it wouldn't be possible to have the traditional sexual intercourse, then you can choose to be the explorer.

Sex At Sixty With Cialis

noreply@blogger.com (Jhen) — Sat, 14 Mar 2009 07:17:00 +0000

Sex and Love are eternal. Most of us have this initiative that aging is a prevention factor as far as sex is worried but in reality, it is not so. A pleasing and satisfying sex life at 60 is utterly possible. The truth is that many swift people are enjoying sex and sexuality more now than ever before due to the accessibility of drugs such as Levitra, Viagra and Cialis.

In preceding times, most of the men were not capable to reach sexual pleasure after the age of 40 due to the incidence of ailment such as Erectile Dysfunction. But thanks to current advances in prescriptions, along with superior healthcare and nutrition, people are able to enjoy burly sexual relationships even after crossing the age of sixty.

So, it's a complete fallacy that human sex drive reduces as we age. But for some of us, our physical incapability takes its fee on our sex life. Ailment like erectile dysfunction (ED) makes sex unattainable for most of the men. It makes them feel uncomfortable while sexual contact and in the process float them away from their partner.

ED is normally referred to the incapability of a man to maintain or attain an erection sufficient for his sexual necessities or the requirements of his partner. Most of the men experience this at some point in their lives, frequently by age 40. Some of them though, experience chronic, complete ED, and others, partial or brief erections. Common erectile dysfunction can cause physical and emotional problems. Its presence often leads to reduce self-respect.

Erectile dysfunction has many reasons, most of which are treatable, and is not a predictable result of aging. ED drugs such as Cialis can help in triumph over this disease and its proper custom can make sex possible even at the age of sixty. Cialis works for 36 hours and has minimum side-effects. It can be simply taken with the assent of your doctor. So, choose for this medication and feel like a youth of twenty at the age of sixty.

How To Retain Your Sex Drive With Healthy Aging

noreply@blogger.com (Jhen) — Wed, 04 Mar 2009 01:50:00 +0000

Retaining your sex drive as a senior adult can be difficult in a world where media labels sex as limited to the younger generation. Luckily, if you are serious about healthy aging, you can continue having fulfilling and exciting relationships well into your senior years. In this article, you will find out about the changes that take place in male and female bodies as they age and how you can cope with these changes to ensure not only healthy aging, but also a healthy sexual life.

The sex drive of both men and women is affected by aging, especially if they did not focus on healthy aging earlier. Men will find it harder to get an erection and when they do, it will be much harder to maintain. In addition, they will not be able to get a new erection after the last one as quickly as when they were a young adult. Healthy aging can only make these issues easier to deal with, so it is important to prepare yourself and your partner to making changes to your sexual life.

Equally, the sex drive of women is affected by the menopause. Reduced hormone production in the body will lead to changes such as more sensitive skin, a shorter, narrower and less lubricated vagina and even possible vaginal bleeding. This can make sexual experience very uncomfortable or even painful for the couple. However, there is no reason to be discouraged, as healthy aging can help you cope with many of these issues.

Coping with changes to your sex drive that result from aging is both a psychological and a physical process. Couples can use lubricant to make vaginal sex more enjoyable women will notice that such sexual encounters will become much less painful with time. You can engage in longer foreplay to stimulate lubrication and make the experience more pleasant. Men can cope with erectile issues by trying different positions to make penetration easier and more fulfilling. If all else fails, a number of surgical and natural remedies are available although most men will not need them.

Psychologically, it is important to understand that, no matter what the media tells you, your need for romance and intimacy does not disappear with age and reappear in a magic pill. Scientific research shows that many men and women have sexual fantasies well into their 80s and 90s.

However, in many cases, the appearance of wrinkles and other signs of age make many question their image and attractiveness. This lack of confidence and self esteem can often lead to sexual difficulty, especially for men. This is why communication continues to be the key to a successful sexual relationship. Sometimes, it is very important to be reassured by your partner that you are just as attractive to them today as you were 20 years ago. A romantic dinner or a quiet date can often help you relax and lead to a more satisfying sexual experience.

Of course, if you are truly interested in healthy aging and in retaining your sex drive well into your 60s and beyond, then it is very important to start taking action as early as possible. Habits and addictions such as smoking and excessive drinking will have a negative impact on your health later on, so it is recommended to start leading a healthier life today. It is also important to combine regular exercise, proper diet and active social life, as these three elements are essential to healthy aging and will make your body look better and last longer, leading to better sexual performance.

As you can see, even in your senior years, you can enjoy sexual intercourse as much as you did 30 or 40 years ago. Of course, sex will not be the same but it will not necessarily be better or worse. Instead, it will be just be different a start of a new and exciting phase in your life that you can adapt to and enjoy.

Sex and Age

noreply@blogger.com (Jhen) — Tue, 24 Feb 2009 15:44:00 +0000

Men sexuality is dependent on the age. Sex is a very important factor in the life of man. Nobody can imagine a life without the sex. Age is a vital factor which influences the sexual drive of man to a great extent. Young men prefer more sex, middle age men are slightly less than the younger men when it comes to sex. Men with older age don’t enjoy sex very much as compared to the young and middle age men.

Sex makes your life more happy and rejuvenating. Sex has many good effects on your health. Sex improves your immunity against the harmful diseases. During sex the thousands of calories are burnt which avoids the gain of excess of fat in the body. Latest discovery also made us aware that more sex avoids erectile dysfunction.

A study was conducted to check the effect of age on the men sexuality. The study revealed that the sexual urge in the men decreases as the age increases. The factors which are responsible for the reduced sexual urge are as follows:

1. Erectile Dysfunction

Erectile dysfunction is main cause of loss of sexual urge in men. When the age increases you get prone to many diseases as a result of which you can not get the hard and long-lasting erections. Erectile dysfunction can be treated with generic drugs like kamagra, Caverta, Apcalis, Zenegra, etc. Please try these generic drugs and get back your sexual pleasure.

2. Deficiency of Testosterone.

Testosterone in the men body starts decreasing after the age of 30. Testosterone is responsible for the sexual characteristics in men. As the testosterone level decreases you start losing interest in the sex and certainly here also age plays a important role in men sexuality.

3. Uninterested Partner.

Sometimes old men are also interested in sex but they are given no importance by their partners because they lose the erection very fast and they are not found to be attractive by their female partners.

4. Diabetes

Diabetes is one of common disease found in the middle age and men. Diabetes inhibits the production of the cyclic guanosine monophoshate which is responsible for the relaxation of the penile muscles. As a result less amount of blood is supplied to the penis and you can not get the erection.

5. Late erections and Force of Ejaculation Decreases

In older age men it may take longer to get an erection, for some men the erections may not feel the same as they have in the past. There may also be changes in the ejaculation which decreases in the ejaculation or even sometimes nothing is ejaculated.

Some more factors like increase in weight, heart diseases, blood pressure, etc also plays a significant role in the decrease of sexual urge in respect to the age.

Sometimes old men are also interested in sex but they are given no importance by their partners because they lose the erection very fast and they are not found to be attractive by their female partners.

Sex Is Good For You!

noreply@blogger.com (Jhen) — Wed, 18 Feb 2009 15:29:00 +0000

According to scientists, sex evolved despite the fact that asexual reproduction was working well with animal and plants. But sex is a rather more complex process designed to provide for a far larger number of combinations and possibilities in the resulting offspring. The asexual act was much simpler and it didn't involved a mixing and matching of different genes, sexually reproducing creatures of every sort, with new and unique genetic combinations arriving in each generation.

In many species, including ours of course, sex leads to a bonding which is base of our civilization and society. Sex increases the strength of our bonds, male to female. Biology has also provided other instincts to safeguard the future of our genes. T has been shown that your family loyalty is in direct proportion to the degree of kinship. So, however much the grandparents dote on grandchildren, they will be even more concerned with their own children. Family bonds develop. As families expand, their requirement for scarce resources increases, so devices have to be created which enable us to share what we find or produce. In early times, a larger group also provided additional protection from predators. So, over 200,000 years, what we now know as "Society" has developed. Sex has motivated human beings to find better answers to the challenges of nature and constantly to improve our ability to handle our environment.

So too, the age-old act of reproduction has also evolved from a necessity for existence into a periodical expression of pleasure and love. How has this happened and to what effect? It is now known that Nature has evolved some pretty clever mechanisms to support sex and make sure we continue to reproduce. For example, hormones secreted during the sexual act help to reduce stress and lead to production of morphine which is a painkiller.

Your Home Gym

Sex also provides a good healthy workout to many muscle groups, in particular, the muscles around your pelvis, buttocks, stomach and arms, which often have little other exercise in daily activities. A "session" of sex can burn 200 calories. It will also improve blood circulation, lower your cholesterol level, while the exercise will release feel-good endorphins. When you are sexually excited, your pulse rate increases from 70 to 150 beats per minute. You would have to lift quite some weights to achieve this in the gym.

Prevent Sickness

Hormonal secretions also make men stronger and the produce collagen in women, which adds smoothness and glow to their skin. Another hormonal product of sex, progesterone, helps person fight acne. Regular sex also produces an antibody, immunoglobin, which helps fight of many diseases.

Reduce stress

Regular sex is said to reduce stress and increase life expectancy. This is caused largely by your body's desire for rest after sex and partly by the "feel good" factor produced by endorphins. Diana at the dating site www.wheresinglesmeet.com tells more about how the human body produces endorphins - the hormone in charge of elevated spirits and positive perception of the environment.

And so to bed . . . to sleep

As you become sexually excited, your blood is pumped harder. More hormones too, help to add up to 20 per cent to a woman's breast size. Oxygen enriched blood also reaches your brain and can improve your memory. It goes without saying that an act of love ends with the ultimate relaxation and sleep - especially after a hard day at work! The raised level of oxytocin produces a strong tranquillizing effect. Sex is therefore a perfect natural soporific.

So, sex is not only healthy, joyous and fulfilling but very good for your health.

Don't Let Menopause Ruin Your Sex Life

noreply@blogger.com (Jhen) — Fri, 06 Feb 2009 02:52:00 +0000

There's no reason why you can't have a happy and satisfying sex life during and after the menopause. According to UK's Jubilee Report, a study into the attitudes and lifestyles of women born when the Queen came to power, life begins at 50 for many British women.

They have more fun, more freedom, more energy and better sex than previous generations who were more likely to dread the onset of middle age, noted the Social Issues Research Centre.

The research found 65 percent of women felt they were happier now than before the menopause. Some 66 percent said they were more independent, while 64 percent said their sex lives had gotten better or had not changed since the menopause. Another 59 percent of women said their relationships with partners and families had improved.
Celebrity role models like actress Joan Collins have already shown women that reaching the menopause does not necessarily mean the end of an active sex life. Collins got married in 2001 for the fifth time at the age of 69 to a husband over three decades younger.

While it is also true that sex drive (libido) tends to naturally fall as we get older, physical contact need not diminish at all. With some treatments, a woman can even increase her sex drive.

Menopausal women can always try hormone replacement therapy (HRT). It consists of natural or synthetic female sex hormones that replace the hormones a woman loses during the menopause. It comes in the form of tablets, patches or gels and always contains estrogen, either in a natural or synthetic form.

Kate Fox, a social scientist and co-director of the Social Issues Research Centre, which undertook the study, said the use of HRT has changed the lives of modern women.
The survey further revealed that women on HRT get more benefits after the onset of the menopause. Half of those surveyed reported improvements in their sex lives since the onset of the menopause compared with 18 percent of those who were not taking the drugs.

HRT can improve many symptoms of the menopause that can hinder a satisfactory sex life. Vaginal dryness, loss of lubrication, soreness, irritation, and vulnerability to bacterial infections and thrush may all be vastly improved by HRT. Hot flushes and night sweats may also be banished.

Another alternative is Zalestra. It provides proven, natural relief for the symptoms of menopause. It is the most complete hormonal balancing pill available today.

10 Things Sex Over 60 Can Teach You About Sex Under 40

noreply@blogger.com (Jhen) — Wed, 21 Jan 2009 12:51:00 +0000

Got your attention? Everyone's favorite subject.

I'll begin by stating again a myth that dies hard: That people over 60 [substitute your own age] aren't having sex. Part of this is that we just don't want to think of our parents as actually having sex, no matter how old they are, no matter how old we are.

Guess what? Your parents are doing it. So are your grandparents. If they're a healthy couple, that is, who enjoy each other and are still enjoying life.

Sex over 60 is sublime. Sex under 60 is also sublime. In this article let's look at the things that make sex over 60 sublime, in a humorous way, because some of the things that startle, amuse, and slightly embarrass you about your Granny are some of the things that can make sex under 40 sublime.

1. Your Mom arrives at your house and you're having a discussion over breakfast cereal, and she says, "Monica, I hope you're letting Harry make love to you with the lights on. Men like that, you know."

Put the blush away. She's talking, and that's what makes for good sex. Older folks don't mince words. Get comfortable with anatomy, natural processes, and needs, and talk about them openly. Talking about what "embarrasses" you could be exactly what could save or enrich your marriage.

And be open-minded. Some men like to make love with the lights on, some don't. Some women like to make love with the lights on, some don't. How will you know if you don't ask? How will you know if you don't try it?

2. Granny comes to see your new baby boy and says, "Looks like his penis is healing just fine, Elberta."

Those cute little phrases I won't go into are fine for bonding, but they take something away in the long run. Call your body parts by their real names. This will both empower you, and demystify sex, and that's a great combination.

3. You're appalled at your mother-in-law's lifestyle, and also a bit jealous.

Since her husband died 5 years ago, she's been living in a resort retirement community. She plays tennis and golf with her boyfriend, spends lazy afternoons by the pool, and they take long cruises. She looks 10 years younger, has a glow, and your husband says he's never seen her happier. When they come to visit you, they're always hugging and holding hands. You walk around a corner and catch them kissing!

You MUST make time to approach this leisurely lifestyle with your partner. You must create a space for what comes naturally to occur, and in the midst of crying babies, promotions and downsizing, leaky faucets, dirty dishes, creeping kudzu, and dog-poop scooping, remember your dating days when you spent hours just gazing into each other's eyes and touching.

4. Your Granpa comes over and says to you, "Son, you leave that pretty little filly alone like this and she's gonna jump the fence and go lookin'. When’s the last time you [wink wink nudge nudge]."

The words may make you squirm. The message may too, because it's not about denial. What's going on has been labeled, the consequences outlined, and the solution presented. It works. Try it. Your own style, words, and timing, of course, with knowledge of your wife, not his or anyone else's.

5. Your Mom says, "Jen, when I walk in here I can cut the tension in the air. There's something you and Nick aren't dealing with."

If you deal with what comes up when it comes up, there won't be tension in the air. Time and experience teach us to read other people's emotions, take the temperature in the air, and become more empathic, which makes for great relationships. You can jump start this process by studying Emotional Intelligence with a certified EQ coach.

6. Dinner's over and your parents are leaving. Your father, a man of few words says, "Anne, your mom and I are coming over next weekend to take care of kids while you and Anthony get away. No arguments."

Make this time. Money is not the crucial component. Put the kids down for Saturday naps and have your own getaway. If there is money, hire a sitter and go to a hotel for a weekend- somewhere with that resort community atmosphere that's letting your mother-in-law have so much fun.

7. Aunt Grace is over and she's talking about her health again.

Staying on top of your physical health is important. Dysfunction and displeasure can have a physical component. Start with a physical checkup if your desire or capacity has faltered.

8. Mimi's sitting on the patio with you. "I just read the other day," she says ...

Read, study, stay abreast of what's new. There's so much on the Internet that's easy access.

9. "The secret to a good marriage?" your Uncle Ben is saying, "It's ..."

Unless you want a room-mate who does your laundry [mows the lawn], get your marriage and sexual relationship out of the realm of "mysterious and mystical."

Try telling someone you can't stand garlic in your mashed potatoes without using the words "mashed potatoes," "garlic," and "can't stand."

If you have trouble getting started on communicating there are wonderful relationship, marriage and sex coaches, counselors, and therapists ready to help! It's worth it.

10. Take it up a notch.

When your six-year-old daughter doesn't like the way you comb her hair, she screams, fidgets, pulls away, cries, pushes you away, runs to her room and slams the door shut, says it makes her head hurt, and learns to tell when it's coming and disappears at these times.

You connect the dots.

Sex. It does a body good. Deal with it like grown ups do! Talk!

Some Common Problems For Women Older Than 60 That Can Make Sex Uncomfortable

noreply@blogger.com (Jhen) — Thu, 08 Jan 2009 00:10:00 +0000

Sex can continue for women at any age, but there are some common problems that can affect those over 60 and make it uncomfortable. If you aren't feeling good during the activity of course it is going to be something you avoid being a part of. That can really make you feel less attractive and even older than you really are. Sex is a big part of who we are even though it isn't the most important attribute.

Too many women just sum up these common problems as the end of a very happy sex life. Others never really enjoyed it anyway so now it is just one more issue to prevent them from considering sex as something wonderful or rewarding. Yet you don't have to let problems prevent you from enjoying sex after age 60. There are many things you can do to make yourself feel better.

Stress can be a huge factor that affects enjoying sex. Some women that are older find that they have things taking place in their life that overwhelm them. Dealing with that stress is very important though to help move on from it. Talking to friends or a professional counselor can certainly be helpful.

A change of partners can be difficult for women as well. Most women are very loyal to their partner and so it can be hard to become intimate with someone else. They may have gotten divorced later in life and just now came back onto the dating scene. Some women have lost their spouse due to death. After being with the same person for decades it is certainly a new experience to have sex with someone different.

Many women will find that it does take longer to become sexually aroused when they are in their 60's. Instead of being frustrated by this a woman just needs to find ways to work with it. Having a relaxing bath with a partner, a nice romantic dinner, or just cuddling for a while can help. A woman needs to make sure her partner understands what will arouse her as well.

Beyond 60- the Best Time to Enjoy Sex!

noreply@blogger.com (Jhen) — Sun, 07 Dec 2008 03:49:00 +0000

Most people are brought up with an unhealthy attitude towards sex. The very thought of sex beyond 60 raises eyebrows. Enjoying a healthy sexual relationship beyond the age of 60, takes more than a physical desire. One has to undo all the taboos placed by traditional thinking and realize that sex could be a natural channel for expression.

A Natural Part of Our Lives

Before we get into this topic, we need to pause, get our thoughts aligned and start communicating on the same wavelength. Since the moment we are born, we have this inborn instinct inside us about sex. This feeling lies deep-rooted inside us, waiting for a proper channel for expression.

In the journey called life, there comes a right time for the proper channels to open up. Just as every seed needs to be cared for as it experiences the passage of time, this feeling takes time to bloom to a full-fledged state. The thoughts, feelings and emotions felt and experienced by our mother regarding sex, are subtly relayed to our minds from the very moment of our conception. Social Barriers

People in the age group of 60 and beyond, have been actually brought up in an orthodox setting. Sex was considered a taboo in their young age. It was never talked about. Now that sex is liberally talked about in this modern age, they are considered to be too old for it. In most parts of the world, sex is connected to marital duties. In some parts of the world sex is limited to procreation. In other parts of the world sex after a particular age, especially when your children grow up, is considered inappropriate.

Your Mind

These so called preset norms may hinder the natural expression of joy that is associated with the sexual experience. When your natural instincts begin to conflict with these social parameters, it results in a low self esteem. Your self esteem has a lot to do with the way you feel about sex after 60. So let's discuss about self esteem. Your self esteem helps you to be in touch with yourself. Your quest for love helps you to do away with stagnation, and helps you to evolve. So, in order to evolve, you must be in touch with yourself. The problem arises when you live outside-in and not inside-out. This means that the situations on your outside influence your inside. Moreover, traditional teachings have made you think this way. For example: Your father or mother decides whether you are a good child or not. Your teacher's decide whether you are a good student or not. And that's perfectly OK! Your parents and teachers are supposed to guide you. But the problem arises when you always seek the approval of others, and that dictates your feelings about yourself. You stay out of the limelight because you have stopped trusting yourself. Your joys depend on what others say about you. You have wrongly trained yourself to think outward-in! You become dependent on outside validation to feel good about yourself. If you don't seek this validation, there may even be a sense of inadequacy or guilt.

Handling Age

Many people cannot handle growing old. Some may look into the mirror and want to look as good as they did when they were younger. There's nothing wrong with wanting to look younger, and maybe going to the plastic surgeon may also not be a bad idea. The problem arises when you feel all down and get all panicky about something that you should accept with maturity. If you want to be perfect, you may end up feeling guilty, lacking motivation and blaming yourself for everything. There's no point fretting over something you cannot change. The truth is that you may never look like you looked when you were thirty. Here's the catch: You can definitely feel the way you felt when you were thirty! On the flip side, many people may use their age as an excuse for their lack of zeal towards the issues of life. A lifetime of worries has worn them out. If you feel that your life is done at 60, it would never motivate you to have the right attitude towards sex. Good sex begins in the mind, so if your self esteem is good and you have the right attitude, the rest will be very easy.

Your Body

Another thing that plays a very important role in enjoying sex at 60 is your physical condition. Although our sexual wires are in place, our bodies seem to slow down. Most women let childbirth affect their sexuality. Moreover the reduction in hormones leads to a lack of sex drive. But let's not make generalizations. Many women discover their sexuality from 40 years to 60 years of age. They have more time for themselves and are more relaxed to explore their sexuality. Men on the other hand can have great sex drives even at the age of 60. The problem could be a lack of sex drive on the part of their partners. But that is changing. Others suffer from reduced sex drive due to medical conditions. At 60 you obviously are not a beginner. You know what works for you and what doesn't. Even though you are well aware of which button triggers which response, your mental inhibitions rob you of feeling the physical pleasures. You still remember the days of your youth, and the great sexual tendencies you had at that time. You are the same person and may very well be able to enjoy sex now.

Men over the age of 60 will also tell you that the burden is off them to have the big muscles. They also don't have to try to perform all night long like they did in their younger years.
