Welcome to another
edition of Newstart now.
00:00:23.88\00:00:26.46
A program that showcases guest
00:00:27.10\00:00:29.59
in our 18-day Newstart
Lifestyle session here at
00:00:30.05\00:00:33.00
Weimar, California.
My name is Ron Giannoni
00:00:33.01\00:00:35.93
and I'm your host
today. With me to my left I've
00:00:35.94\00:00:39.12
Alice Jackson.
Alice has an amazing
00:00:39.13\00:00:42.31
testimony to tell us
about, but before we get
00:00:42.32\00:00:45.79
into that Alice I'd
like to show the viewers
00:00:45.80\00:00:50.79
our interview when
you first got here,
00:00:51.85\00:00:53.78
is that okay? Okay, go.
00:00:53.79\00:00:55.43
For the last
couple of years I've had
00:00:56.44\00:00:58.44
difficulties with Iron
Deficiency particularly
00:00:58.88\00:01:03.57
ferritin, which is
the iron that stored a the
00:01:03.58\00:01:06.38
tissues and it's
a prolonged program
00:01:06.39\00:01:11.09
to get it built back
up again and during that
00:01:11.10\00:01:13.84
time a person is
really low in energy and so
00:01:13.85\00:01:19.88
over the last couple
of years I've been lying
00:01:19.89\00:01:22.33
around a lot, so in
these last couple of years
00:01:22.34\00:01:25.83
while I was
having difficulty with my
00:01:25.84\00:01:28.17
health, drinking
caffeine and smoking
00:01:28.18\00:01:31.55
cigarettes and
eating sugary snacks became
00:01:31.56\00:01:38.10
worse for me.
I've got worse added
00:01:38.11\00:01:41.09
instead of better,
and so all that time I was
00:01:41.10\00:01:45.29
thinking that if I had
the opportunity to come up
00:01:45.30\00:01:47.28
here and reverse
that and get some definite
00:01:47.29\00:01:51.57
instruction on how to
eat better and how to,
00:01:51.58\00:01:55.09
how to take care of myself?
00:01:55.10\00:01:56.69
Well, that's an amazing
testimony to start with,
00:01:58.18\00:02:01.27
but my question now
is how you're feeling,
00:02:01.28\00:02:04.21
what's going on?
Well, I feel, I feel a big
00:02:04.22\00:02:08.98
difference in my
well being and my energy
00:02:08.99\00:02:12.38
level, my health, much better.
00:02:12.39\00:02:14.37
You look different. Do I? Yeah,
00:02:14.66\00:02:17.22
you look better more
vibrant, but tell me how
00:02:17.23\00:02:19.93
is the sugar cravings
and? Well, I think I'm an
00:02:19.94\00:02:24.45
expert withdrawals
now because I had to
00:02:24.46\00:02:27.55
withdraw from just
about everything I was
00:02:27.56\00:02:29.59
doing in my life,
but sugar withdrawals was
00:02:29.60\00:02:32.95
probably last just a
couple of days I would
00:02:34.54\00:02:37.07
say and they weren't
that bad because we ate
00:02:37.08\00:02:40.45
as much food as
we wanted at our meal
00:02:40.46\00:02:42.50
times, and so there was
no hunger just the habit
00:02:42.51\00:02:47.15
of having sweets,
had to deal with that.
00:02:47.16\00:02:50.44
The caffeine I notice
right away, the first day
00:02:51.91\00:02:56.00
I noticed that I was
reaching for my cup of
00:02:56.01\00:02:58.55
coffee and wasn't there, but
00:02:58.56\00:02:59.91
I got over that
pretty quickly too.
00:03:00.68\00:03:02.32
And then cigarette
smoking of course was
00:03:02.87\00:03:05.52
the hardest and
I still wonder how,
00:03:05.53\00:03:08.61
what I will have to do
at home to make sure I'm
00:03:09.85\00:03:12.27
not tempted, you
know, what things I may have
00:03:12.28\00:03:14.30
to do differently,
but being up here in
00:03:14.31\00:03:16.56
environment where
there is no smoking,
00:03:16.57\00:03:18.14
I think I'm doing very well.
00:03:19.62\00:03:21.33
Let's go back to the caffeine.
00:03:21.65\00:03:23.32
Now before you
got here you drank,
00:03:23.78\00:03:25.82
how much coffee
did you drink a day?
00:03:25.83\00:03:28.04
If you can little
cups I used big cups,
00:03:30.20\00:03:34.76
but I think the
average cup size I probably
00:03:34.77\00:03:37.54
drink about five or
six cups of coffee a day.
00:03:37.87\00:03:39.96
Okay very strong
or. Yes. And you felt
00:03:39.97\00:03:42.67
withdrawal from that.
Yes. And the cigarettes
00:03:42.68\00:03:45.61
you felt withdrawal,
are you still withdrawing
00:03:45.62\00:03:47.92
or you feel it's
physical? No, no I don't feel
00:03:47.93\00:03:50.27
physical any kind of distress.
00:03:51.19\00:03:53.64
I think that's a
chemical withdrawing.
00:03:54.50\00:03:58.57
I think right now
it's mostly how I lived my
00:03:58.58\00:04:03.53
life before, was I
worked things around
00:04:03.54\00:04:06.79
my cigarette habit
because it's not polite
00:04:06.80\00:04:09.27
to smoke anywhere now. Yeah.
00:04:09.28\00:04:11.27
And so I had to
fit my life around
00:04:11.28\00:04:14.14
my cigarette
habit. So now I have to
00:04:14.15\00:04:17.30
kind of rethink
that when I get home.
00:04:17.85\00:04:19.37
Okay, good. Now tell
us a little bit about the
00:04:19.61\00:04:22.35
program you've been
through, did you have fun?
00:04:22.36\00:04:25.50
Yes, definitely. It's
been a lot of fun even though
00:04:26.54\00:04:29.74
that I had my personal
struggles to go through
00:04:29.75\00:04:32.99
in the early days, but
everyone all the guests
00:04:33.00\00:04:36.87
were like a, I know it
sounds cliché, but we're
00:04:37.71\00:04:40.83
like a family. We
were very supportive
00:04:40.84\00:04:43.40
of each other and
I would think most
00:04:43.41\00:04:46.19
groups are
probably like this one.
00:04:46.20\00:04:48.31
We have a lot of fun.
And getting out walking
00:04:50.41\00:04:55.62
and being in a
beautiful place like this
00:04:55.63\00:04:57.90
is certainly fun and
exhilarating, so yes it's
00:04:58.87\00:05:02.58
very enjoyable.
Okay, all the things that
00:05:02.59\00:05:05.26
you've experienced
here at Weimar, what is this
00:05:05.27\00:05:08.57
memorable moment
that you'll take home
00:05:08.77\00:05:10.99
with you, any one
particular thing that happened?
00:05:11.00\00:05:13.99
Well, I was
sitting in our lectures.
00:05:14.74\00:05:17.55
We lectured
frequently, daily and sometimes
00:05:17.56\00:05:20.74
more than once a day,
and realized probably in
00:05:20.75\00:05:25.46
about the fifth or
sixth lecture that the person
00:05:25.47\00:05:30.64
giving the lecture
is a doctor, a medical
00:05:30.65\00:05:35.64
doctor, and it struck
me. It took a couple of times
00:05:35.65\00:05:39.03
before I really
realized that what a rare
00:05:39.04\00:05:41.18
opportunity this is to
be, to be trained and taught
00:05:41.19\00:05:44.66
by these professionals
who lived this lifestyle
00:05:45.01\00:05:50.03
themselves and have
for many years and just to
00:05:50.04\00:05:54.10
have them
up-close and available for
00:05:54.11\00:05:57.59
questioning day after
day after day I realized
00:05:57.60\00:06:01.06
that was just very
rare, rare opportunity.
00:06:01.07\00:06:03.70
Now you say
there are available for
00:06:03.71\00:06:05.70
questioning, I mean you
can just walk into their
00:06:05.71\00:06:08.43
office or where they
on campus available to you
00:06:08.44\00:06:12.06
most of the time.
The doctors are visible
00:06:12.87\00:06:17.25
on campus and at meal times and
00:06:17.26\00:06:20.54
just different
times during the day.
00:06:20.84\00:06:22.70
You mean they eat with you?
00:06:22.98\00:06:23.95
They eat with us, okay,
and they if nothing else
00:06:23.96\00:06:27.15
walk through, I mean
say hello, they stop.
00:06:27.16\00:06:30.69
If anyone has
something to say to
00:06:30.70\00:06:33.29
them they stop,
they're never in a hurry.
00:06:33.30\00:06:34.92
Yes, they're
completely accessible.
00:06:36.02\00:06:38.08
Well, surely you
found that your doctors at
00:06:38.36\00:06:40.27
home were about
the same, weren't they?
00:06:40.28\00:06:41.80
No, no, very hard to
get a hold of and to get
00:06:41.81\00:06:45.71
their attention very
lengthy time yeah at home.
00:06:45.72\00:06:48.22
Okay, and now I
understand that you're
00:06:48.23\00:06:51.15
walking quite a bit how
far you walking each day?
00:06:51.16\00:06:54.15
Well I've walked more
than three miles a day
00:06:54.16\00:06:56.76
and this is from at
home I wasn't walking at all,
00:06:57.75\00:07:00.44
so I had to start up
gradually, but the most
00:07:00.45\00:07:03.66
I've gonna I think
in a day where I counted
00:07:03.67\00:07:06.15
measured was probably a
little under four miles.
00:07:06.16\00:07:08.56
Well, that's excellent, good.
00:07:08.57\00:07:10.81
What about the food
now. I'm hearing that you
00:07:11.14\00:07:13.11
had a ordeal with the
food or was it you that
00:07:13.12\00:07:16.11
I heard that about? I
had no ordeal with the food.
00:07:16.12\00:07:18.50
Not at all. No.
So you love the food?
00:07:18.51\00:07:20.45
I love the food,
everything is fresh and
00:07:20.46\00:07:23.18
beautifully displayed,
it all looks appetizing,
00:07:24.25\00:07:27.12
it smells good and
after a couple of days your
00:07:27.13\00:07:32.31
appetite gets used to
the routine of when the
00:07:32.32\00:07:34.42
meals are and it's much
easier to switch over to
00:07:34.43\00:07:40.46
this diet than I
thought it would be.
00:07:40.47\00:07:43.83
That was not difficult at all.
00:07:44.73\00:07:46.00
Now you're a
married lady I know,
00:07:46.59\00:07:48.24
I met your husband,
and when you go home
00:07:48.25\00:07:51.08
you're gonna be
doing the cooking at home,
00:07:51.09\00:07:53.28
and as he is gonna
address to you a new lifestyle.
00:07:53.79\00:07:56.11
Everybody at home is
anxiously awaiting me
00:07:56.12\00:07:59.51
to get there and
start cooking for them.
00:07:59.52\00:08:01.75
They come up to visit
here and joined us for
00:08:02.18\00:08:05.43
different meals. My husband,
00:08:05.44\00:08:07.17
probably had about
six meals here and my son
00:08:07.18\00:08:12.05
had one and they are
trying to duplicate it at
00:08:12.06\00:08:18.44
home right now by
themselves and they're
00:08:18.45\00:08:20.51
just they're gonna
be happy for me to come
00:08:20.52\00:08:22.53
home and start
cooking the real thing.
00:08:22.54\00:08:25.49
Now we have
about 30 seconds left.
00:08:26.63\00:08:28.52
Is there anything
you'd like to convey to the
00:08:28.53\00:08:31.15
viewing audience that
might inspire them in anyway?
00:08:31.16\00:08:35.00
Well, I'm just happy
that I did this because
00:08:35.56\00:08:38.41
there's so much
conflicting information
00:08:39.81\00:08:41.65
out there about how
we should eat or how we
00:08:41.66\00:08:44.29
should leave. If we
find out that one thing
00:08:44.30\00:08:47.34
is not good for us,
if we look hard enough we
00:08:47.35\00:08:49.29
can find someone
saying that it might be
00:08:49.30\00:08:51.12
okay to have, you
know, exercise this
00:08:51.52\00:08:55.22
much or exercise that much.
00:08:55.23\00:08:56.82
And I wanted to go
somewhere where the
00:08:57.39\00:08:59.18
people could teach
me without a doubt that
00:08:59.19\00:09:02.63
there is a system, a
way of living that includes
00:09:02.83\00:09:05.56
all these
elements that really works.
00:09:05.57\00:09:07.47
And here at Weimer,
it's taught by people
00:09:07.80\00:09:11.20
who are actually living
the lifestyle themselves
00:09:11.21\00:09:14.10
and like I said they've
been doing it for a while.
00:09:14.11\00:09:17.24
So they are, it's not,
it's much different from
00:09:17.92\00:09:20.89
reading a book, or
trying to figure this
00:09:20.90\00:09:23.77
out on your own.
And I'm glad that
00:09:23.78\00:09:26.08
I'll be able to go
home and not second guess
00:09:26.09\00:09:28.63
my choices when I
make a menu or a shop.
00:09:29.29\00:09:32.23
I know what to do
now without a doubt.
00:09:32.95\00:09:36.30
Alright! Alice,
thank you for joining us.
00:09:36.63\00:09:39.28

away we have an exciting

ahead, we'll be back in
00:09:41.83\00:09:44.23
just a moment, God bless.
00:09:44.24\00:09:45.75
Well, you've done very well.
00:09:47.33\00:09:48.55
Do you have
diabetes, heart disease,
00:09:55.30\00:09:57.62
high blood pressure,
or do you weight too much?

Welcome back folks.
I've an exciting guest
00:10:53.46\00:10:56.99
here right now,
Dr. Lukens to my left.
00:10:57.00\00:11:00.32
Welcome Dr. Lukens.
It's good to see you again.
00:11:01.16\00:11:02.97
Thank you. So,
tell me, we've just
00:11:02.98\00:11:06.57
seen this testimony.
It can't be that easy.
00:11:06.58\00:11:09.88
What's going on
here tell me in your own
00:11:10.48\00:11:12.61
doctor words, what's happening?
00:11:12.99\00:11:15.05
Well, you know,
when Alice came I saw
00:11:16.43\00:11:19.62
someone there was very
timid, very fearful and
00:11:19.63\00:11:24.12
frankly very defeated,
and she had tried for 37
00:11:24.13\00:11:28.53
years, that's how
long she had been smoking
00:11:28.54\00:11:31.92
since age 11. Wow!
To give this habit up
00:11:31.93\00:11:35.63
and I said, well
do you have children?
00:11:36.64\00:11:38.16
She said yes I have
two. I said well did you
00:11:38.17\00:11:42.53
know during the
time that you're having
00:11:42.54\00:11:44.27
children that
tobacco smoking was harmful?
00:11:44.28\00:11:47.36
And she said, yes I
did. I said, well then why
00:11:48.15\00:11:51.58
did you do? She
said I tried my hardest
00:11:51.59\00:11:54.68
to give up cigarette smoking.
00:11:55.57\00:11:56.92
She said I just did
the very, very best that
00:11:57.61\00:12:00.71
I could, and she said
I'd kind of way, way down,
00:12:00.72\00:12:03.71
but I always had to
know that that cigarette
00:12:04.06\00:12:06.25
was there. Well, had she ever?
00:12:06.26\00:12:08.27
Nothing happen.
Had she ever tried
00:12:08.28\00:12:10.56
anything else like I
know there are products
00:12:10.57\00:12:12.77
on the market, you take
this pill you could quit
00:12:12.78\00:12:15.31
smoking in a couple of days.
00:12:15.32\00:12:16.86
She ever done
anything like that or is it?
00:12:17.17\00:12:18.50
The thing is. Truly
Weimar or the Newstart
00:12:18.51\00:12:21.17
Program that has helped
her stop this addiction.
00:12:21.18\00:12:24.68
The thing is that all of
those situations it still
00:12:25.33\00:12:28.76
takes that
personal commitment what she
00:12:28.77\00:12:32.35
had, but she had to
have the realization that she
00:12:32.36\00:12:38.42
could be strong enough
to do it, and that's what
00:12:38.43\00:12:42.03
it had been
lacking. She would get down
00:12:42.04\00:12:44.13
to where she might
just smoke one or two or
00:12:44.14\00:12:46.68
three cigarettes
during her old pregnancy,
00:12:46.69\00:12:49.32
I mean during per
week during her pregnancy.
00:12:49.51\00:12:52.32
So she was
trying a very hardest,
00:12:52.94\00:12:54.72
but she had to know
that cigarette was still
00:12:55.06\00:12:58.02
there if she needed
it. Well, let me ask you
00:12:58.03\00:12:59.94
this, let me ask you
this. Okay and, and I agree,
00:12:59.95\00:13:03.87
but what is it
about the Newstart Program
00:13:04.07\00:13:06.95
that assisted her in
stopping those addiction?
00:13:07.44\00:13:12.26
Well, I think there are
a lot of different things,
00:13:13.31\00:13:15.28
but one of the things
is this huge as in we got
00:13:15.29\00:13:19.31
her exercising. She
just come off of a prolonged
00:13:19.32\00:13:22.83
illness and she mentioned that.
00:13:22.84\00:13:25.44
Or she just didn't
have any energy so she
00:13:25.95\00:13:28.12
hadn't done any
physical exercise and
00:13:28.13\00:13:30.42
that can make the
person feel defeating
00:13:30.43\00:13:32.05
right there. And so
she started moving, started
00:13:32.06\00:13:36.18
exercising, and that was big.
00:13:36.19\00:13:38.47
Then we had food that
wasn't stimulating and
00:13:39.03\00:13:42.58
it was wholesome and nutritious.
00:13:42.59\00:13:45.06
There was
calming to her as well.
00:13:47.10\00:13:48.07
She also talked about
the caffeine and that's
00:13:48.08\00:13:49.78
another thing.
Those two seemed to go
00:13:49.79\00:13:52.16
together you know
it's just a habit.
00:13:52.17\00:13:54.97
Caffeine and cigarettes?
Yeah, you sit down and
00:13:55.43\00:13:57.88
you have your cup
of coffee and you have
00:13:57.89\00:13:59.36
your cigarette and it
just, it just like that,
00:13:59.37\00:14:02.38
but the main thing was
is that she had to know
00:14:02.39\00:14:05.05
that she could do
it. And on day three when
00:14:05.06\00:14:07.82
it was probably the
hardest she almost quit.
00:14:07.83\00:14:11.05
They called me up
in the morning and they
00:14:12.55\00:14:14.08
said, Alice's bags
are packed and she is on
00:14:14.09\00:14:18.21
her way. Oh really!
And this was day three?
00:14:18.22\00:14:21.33
This is day three,
yeah. Oh! And so fortunately
00:14:21.54\00:14:24.67
we're able to get
there and I said look,
00:14:25.29\00:14:27.00
let's kneel down and
let's pray about this.
00:14:28.21\00:14:30.13
God has wonderful power
and He can help you stop.
00:14:30.14\00:14:33.77
And I talked to her
husband later and he
00:14:34.84\00:14:36.68
says I don't
wanna be hardnosed doc,
00:14:36.69\00:14:38.35
but he said I was
able to quit because at one
00:14:38.36\00:14:43.25
stage it just I
saw somebody smoking,
00:14:43.26\00:14:47.03
it was so detestable
to me I thought I don't
00:14:47.04\00:14:49.31
ever wanna do that
again. But she had tried so
00:14:49.32\00:14:52.81
many times even through
the pregnancies and stuff.
00:14:52.82\00:14:55.52
And so I said let's
pray about it and a friend of
00:14:56.01\00:14:59.24
her's came and so she
went off the campus for
00:14:59.25\00:15:01.97
a while and talked to
her friend and then her
00:15:01.98\00:15:05.64
friend says, now
what do you're gonna do?
00:15:05.65\00:15:07.13
And she says,
I've got to go back.
00:15:07.86\00:15:09.14
Right, right, right.
And then by day four and
00:15:09.60\00:15:13.23
five, the physical
addictions were over
00:15:13.24\00:15:15.96
with, pretty
much and we know that,
00:15:15.97\00:15:18.54
that's what the five
day plan to stop smoking
00:15:18.55\00:15:21.45
day, but she still
needed that extra length of time
00:15:21.46\00:15:24.60
to settle into it
and realize that hey,
00:15:25.43\00:15:28.07
by God's help I can't do this.
00:15:28.94\00:15:31.38
By being on these, on
these simple principles
00:15:31.89\00:15:35.67
of health, so,
we're going to be able to
00:15:36.05\00:15:39.00
make this journey. So
what I hear you saying,
00:15:39.01\00:15:41.26
correct me if I'm wrong,
is first exercise and then
00:15:41.27\00:15:45.52
food and then third
you mentioned obviously
00:15:45.53\00:15:50.53
trust in the Lord,
is that way it works
00:15:50.54\00:15:53.13
or can anybody do
this? Can anyone come here
00:15:53.14\00:15:55.86
to the Newstart
Program and stop smoking?
00:15:55.87\00:15:58.72
Well, they're, they're
all, they're altogether.
00:15:59.30\00:16:01.38
They all have to
hit at the same time,
00:16:01.39\00:16:03.26
otherwise it won't
work. But, you know, a very
00:16:03.71\00:16:07.81
famous American
writer said, oh! It's
00:16:07.82\00:16:10.36
really easy to stop smoking.
00:16:10.37\00:16:11.90
I've done it a
thousand times, and that's what
00:16:11.91\00:16:14.99
people you know, they
think well I assure you
00:16:15.00\00:16:16.73
know, she is here
18-days and she is a
00:16:16.74\00:16:18.88
special situation.
But I think that she
00:16:18.89\00:16:21.78
has a confidence
now and as we follow her
00:16:21.79\00:16:24.22
and keep encouraging
her she realizes it now
00:16:24.75\00:16:27.91
she can do it
because she did it for longer
00:16:28.17\00:16:31.04
than she has ever
done in the last 37 years.
00:16:31.49\00:16:33.84
Now aside from
the smoking addiction,
00:16:34.89\00:16:37.53
were there any other
elements that she was
00:16:39.02\00:16:42.10
dealing with or is
that pretty much as I know
00:16:42.11\00:16:45.61
there is someone
to lose some weight,
00:16:45.62\00:16:47.02
she mentioned?
Yeah, you know and like
00:16:47.03\00:16:49.11
I say she had been
defeated for a year-and-half.
00:16:49.12\00:16:51.75
She just had no hope
that she was gonna be
00:16:52.63\00:16:55.10
able to get her energy back.
00:16:55.11\00:16:56.47
She was anemic.
She had always other
00:16:57.75\00:16:59.91
problems and after a
while you know day in
00:16:59.92\00:17:02.64
and day out, you
just lose, you lose hope,
00:17:02.65\00:17:05.31
you lose confidence and
you have to get that back.
00:17:05.46\00:17:08.10
She has a walk with
the Lord, but it was
00:17:08.31\00:17:11.23
something that she
needed extra to help
00:17:11.24\00:17:13.37
and that's what
she got when she came.
00:17:14.12\00:17:16.00
Now, what about now
that she is going leave
00:17:16.74\00:17:20.28
the Newstart
Program, she is leaving Weimar
00:17:20.87\00:17:24.08
and she goes
home, what about then,
00:17:24.09\00:17:26.12
what do we, what do we
have in place to assist
00:17:26.13\00:17:29.49
her at that point or doing?
00:17:29.50\00:17:31.89
It'll be the, it'll
be the follow-up, yeah.
00:17:32.22\00:17:33.87
She is supposed to fill
out an eight week chart,
00:17:34.17\00:17:36.20
but of the things that
I told her is as I said,
00:17:36.92\00:17:38.88
you know, your
family is going to gain
00:17:38.89\00:17:43.74
victories in areas in
their life when they see
00:17:43.75\00:17:47.62
you victorious and
that will also make a
00:17:47.63\00:17:50.89
huge difference for her. Amen.
00:17:50.90\00:17:53.60
So, we appreciate
the fact that people can
00:17:55.02\00:17:59.93
dump here and stop
smoking, are there any
00:17:59.94\00:18:02.97
other addictions
that perhaps we can help
00:18:02.98\00:18:06.25
people with it? You know smoking
00:18:06.26\00:18:08.10
maybe the hardest
as twice as addictive,
00:18:08.11\00:18:10.92
of course when you're addicted,
00:18:10.93\00:18:12.35
you're addicted but
somebody told me that
00:18:12.36\00:18:14.47
just very recently I
said, it was easier for me to
00:18:14.48\00:18:17.59
give up heroin
and it was to give
00:18:17.60\00:18:20.04
up tobacco smoking. Goodness.
00:18:20.05\00:18:22.14
And I was you know, I
was surprised with that.
00:18:22.15\00:18:27.11
But it's so
pervasive and it's acceptable,
00:18:27.87\00:18:30.50
you know, you can't
be shooting up heroin and
00:18:30.51\00:18:33.41
stuff like that.
There is a lot of things,
00:18:33.42\00:18:34.96
but society is
getting down on it and now the
00:18:34.97\00:18:37.88
most recent thing I
heard is there a third
00:18:37.89\00:18:40.35
hand smoke. So it's
in the hair, it's in the
00:18:40.36\00:18:43.30
clothes and they can
actually measure some
00:18:43.31\00:18:45.92
of these products in
infants and children that
00:18:45.93\00:18:49.99
are held by these
people who have a close
00:18:50.00\00:18:53.28
contact with smokers
and now there is a new
00:18:53.29\00:18:55.85
term, they call
it Third Hand Smoke.
00:18:55.86\00:18:58.56
This was just this
month I heard that.
00:18:59.47\00:19:01.49
Now, since she
has been here, has she
00:19:02.12\00:19:05.65
smoked at all? No. Not at all.
00:19:05.66\00:19:08.54
She stopped the
very day she came through
00:19:08.55\00:19:10.55
and that was the
problem, day three
00:19:11.02\00:19:12.76
every part of her
body was just screaming out
00:19:13.79\00:19:16.43
for something and, so
like I said she didn't
00:19:16.79\00:19:18.82
have the confidence
that she could do it,
00:19:18.83\00:19:20.65
but she realized where to
go, to get that confidence.
00:19:21.34\00:19:24.50
And what did her
husband have to say
00:19:24.51\00:19:26.33
to you when he has
found out that she quit?
00:19:26.34\00:19:28.39
Oh! What do you
think? Because he has been
00:19:28.72\00:19:32.90
smoke free since about 1990.
00:19:32.91\00:19:35.28
Any final words to
our viewing audience as to
00:19:36.16\00:19:40.32
what someone might do?
00:19:40.92\00:19:42.52
Well, people think
that if they tried to quit
00:19:44.26\00:19:48.34
smoking and they
don't, each time they try and
00:19:48.35\00:19:52.69
they fail that there
is less of a chance that
00:19:52.70\00:19:56.21
they're gonna ever be
able to stop, but it's just
00:19:56.22\00:19:59.26
the opposite. The
more times you try,
00:19:59.27\00:20:01.94
the more likely it is
that you will finally succeed.
00:20:02.77\00:20:05.50
So, don't ever give
up. Alright, thank you
00:20:05.77\00:20:10.15
Dr. Lukens for
joining us, God bless and we
00:20:10.16\00:20:13.11
appreciate your wisdom.
00:20:13.12\00:20:14.74
It's really, really my pleasure.
00:20:15.33\00:20:16.90
I'm happy to be
here. Thank you, and folks
00:20:16.91\00:20:19.59
don't go away
because in our final segment
00:20:19.60\00:20:22.13
we're gonna find out
how you too can begin
00:20:22.57\00:20:24.95
your journey to
wellness. Don't go away.
00:20:24.96\00:20:27.36
We'll be right back, God bless.
00:20:27.37\00:20:29.23
Hi, I'm Cathy.
Welcome to Newstart@Home.
00:20:43.84\00:20:45.96
Today, I have
with us Don Mackintosh.
00:20:46.23\00:20:48.12
And Don you're gonna
share with us little bit
00:20:48.13\00:20:49.50
about trust. Yes,
trust I mean, have you
00:20:49.51\00:20:51.97
ever heard the
express 'trust me'?
00:20:51.98\00:20:53.17
Yeah. And what is
trust? It's really putting your
00:20:53.18\00:20:56.93
confidence, your
faith in someone.
00:20:56.94\00:20:58.52
I have a Bible
here today and one of my
00:20:58.94\00:21:00.13
favorite texts is
from Proverbs, it says:
00:21:00.14\00:21:02.22
Trust in the Lord
with all thy heart and lean
00:21:02.60\00:21:05.98
not unto thine own
understanding, in all thy
00:21:05.99\00:21:08.38
ways acknowledge
Him, and He will direct
00:21:08.39\00:21:11.13
thy paths. Did you
know they did studies
00:21:11.14\00:21:13.88
of people that actually
trusted in the Lord with
00:21:13.89\00:21:16.89
all their heart,
did you know that?
00:21:16.90\00:21:17.95
No, I didn't know
that. And they found amazing
00:21:17.96\00:21:21.26
outcomes with these people.
00:21:21.27\00:21:22.50
For instance, they
had fewer symptoms of or
00:21:22.95\00:21:26.39
in better health
outcomes concerning
00:21:26.40\00:21:28.02
cancer, high blood
pressure, heart diseases
00:21:28.03\00:21:30.70
all of these
different areas, and people that
00:21:30.88\00:21:34.24
that end up going
to Church what do you
00:21:34.25\00:21:36.30
suppose happens to
them? What do you think?
00:21:36.31\00:21:38.88
Gain more trust.
They even have more
00:21:38.89\00:21:40.65
trust and it's not
just because going to
00:21:40.66\00:21:43.25
Church is good,
but because they really
00:21:43.26\00:21:44.89
believe in God. Those that have
00:21:45.27\00:21:46.41
called Intrinsic
Religiosity, in other
00:21:46.42\00:21:49.49
words it really was from
within, trust in the Lord
00:21:49.50\00:21:51.81
with all thy heart.
They had lower death
00:21:51.82\00:21:54.38
rates from all
diseases, no matter what else
00:21:54.97\00:21:57.82
they didn't like.
And also, if you trust in
00:21:57.83\00:21:59.96
Lord you have
an increase in your
00:21:59.97\00:22:02.28
immune system. It
just seems to you know,
00:22:02.29\00:22:04.59
if you trust in Lord you
trust in the take care of
00:22:04.65\00:22:06.60
things it seems like
the immune system goes up.
00:22:06.61\00:22:09.78
Now get this, let me
ask you this question.
00:22:09.79\00:22:11.57
Do you suppose that
people have more trust
00:22:11.58\00:22:13.11
or less trust, if
they attend weekly or
00:22:13.43\00:22:16.84
monthly a Church?
Oh! I would think weekly,
00:22:16.85\00:22:19.41
I would hope
weekly. Well, I supposed
00:22:19.42\00:22:20.89
depending on the pastor, right.
00:22:20.90\00:22:22.07
But I think any
other people of the Church,
00:22:22.08\00:22:24.11
but it is true those
that go weekly they have an
00:22:24.12\00:22:28.06
increase benefit
across the board.
00:22:28.07\00:22:32.05
And get this, the best
part is that people that
00:22:32.86\00:22:35.38
are suffering from
various conditions like
00:22:35.39\00:22:38.34
for instance
let's take depression.
00:22:38.35\00:22:39.81
All kinds of
people struggling with
00:22:40.87\00:22:42.45
depression
maybe even some today.
00:22:42.46\00:22:43.83
And those people,
they have a hard time even
00:22:44.59\00:22:46.45
believing in God.
But once they start
00:22:46.46\00:22:49.57
believing in God and
once they start trusting
00:22:49.58\00:22:52.66
Him, did you
know they recover from
00:22:52.67\00:22:55.73
depression, 70%
sooner than other people.
00:22:55.74\00:22:59.87
So trust is
really kind of important.
00:22:59.88\00:23:01.40
Wow! That's very exciting.
00:23:01.41\00:23:03.05
So depressed
people, they recover 70%
00:23:03.66\00:23:06.42
sooner, and they
have fewer complications
00:23:06.43\00:23:09.39
just about from everything.
00:23:10.39\00:23:11.42
So, bottom-line is
I think that trust is
00:23:11.43\00:23:14.24
something that is
very important and how do
00:23:14.25\00:23:18.55
you gain trust?
You know that might
00:23:18.56\00:23:19.89
be someone to go, but
how do you do this at home?
00:23:19.90\00:23:21.78
Can you be trusting at home?
00:23:22.59\00:23:23.72
Sure, yeah how can you
00:23:24.25\00:23:25.28
demonstrate your trust in God?
00:23:25.29\00:23:26.96
Maybe just by
calling out to Him,
00:23:27.30\00:23:29.03
laying your cares
upon Him, casting your
00:23:29.04\00:23:31.49
burdens upon Him,
saying I trust you to
00:23:31.50\00:23:33.98
take care of it. I can't
do anything more about it,
00:23:33.99\00:23:36.54
so just help me with it
and take care of it for me
00:23:36.91\00:23:39.91
and when that
happens then that burden is
00:23:40.18\00:23:43.07
rolled off your
chest, rolled off your mind,
00:23:43.08\00:23:45.34
and you can start
out. In other way, you
00:23:45.79\00:23:47.87
demonstrate trust is
by being with people who
00:23:47.88\00:23:51.22
are trust in God and
drawing strengths from
00:23:51.23\00:23:54.05
their faith and you
know what do you do?
00:23:54.06\00:23:56.32
I noticed that was
some of our guest they come
00:23:56.33\00:23:58.10
through here they are
trying to quit smoking
00:23:58.11\00:23:59.67
that they say that they
do gain their trust from
00:23:59.68\00:24:02.10
other people when the
other people are here,
00:24:02.11\00:24:03.87
the workers that
work here, and I've had
00:24:03.88\00:24:06.22
people say that to
me that you know I don't
00:24:06.23\00:24:07.85
have enough faith,
but put my trust and then
00:24:07.86\00:24:10.44
and they're praying
for me and they are gaining
00:24:10.45\00:24:12.29
that trust almost secondhand.
00:24:12.30\00:24:13.98
I mean so they
learned to make that habit
00:24:13.99\00:24:15.65
themselves. You know,
that's the great thing
00:24:15.66\00:24:17.27
about our program
like Newstart, but you can
00:24:17.28\00:24:19.04
do it at home as
well Newstart@Home.
00:24:19.05\00:24:22.04
We do this here at
the program over 19 days.
00:24:22.05\00:24:24.13
People come from
all walks of life.
00:24:24.14\00:24:26.10
They come together.
They start to gain trust
00:24:26.11\00:24:28.04
in the people that are giving,
00:24:28.53\00:24:29.54
putting the program
on. They put their faith in
00:24:29.55\00:24:31.42
them, and then they
see physical outcomes that
00:24:31.43\00:24:33.91
increase their trust
more and more over that
00:24:33.92\00:24:36.07
19-day period.
They see amazing things,
00:24:36.08\00:24:38.17
but it's not to be done here.
00:24:38.18\00:24:39.36
You can start it
right at home, right?
00:24:39.85\00:24:42.56
Yes, you can. What's that text?
00:24:42.57\00:24:43.73
Trust in the Lord
with all thy heart and lean
00:24:43.74\00:24:46.26
not to thy own
understanding in all thy
00:24:46.27\00:24:48.36
ways acknowledge
Him, whether you're
00:24:48.37\00:24:49.95
eating, sleeping,
drinking whatever it is,
00:24:49.96\00:24:52.02
and He will direct thy paths.
00:24:52.44\00:24:55.86

Hi friends, we hope
you enjoy this edition of
00:26:49.80\00:26:52.55
Newstart now. Well, let
sit back and take a look
00:26:52.56\00:26:55.55
at what happened here.
Alice came to us with a
00:26:55.56\00:26:58.41
lot of different
problems; addictions if
00:26:58.42\00:27:01.48
you will coffee,
cigarettes perhaps a
00:27:01.49\00:27:04.41
little bit depression
or anxiety and I'm here to
00:27:04.42\00:27:07.42
tell you that we can
overcome these things.
00:27:07.43\00:27:09.69
I too when I
came to Weimar, I was
00:27:10.25\00:27:13.06
morbidly obese,
depressed, I drank
00:27:13.64\00:27:16.19
coffee and alcohol and
I smoked at one time in
00:27:16.20\00:27:19.82
my life, all
these things are gone.
00:27:19.83\00:27:22.15
Why are they gone?
Because I came here,
00:27:22.77\00:27:25.24
I came here I got
well. Like Alice I was healed
00:27:25.55\00:27:29.24
and the reason is, as
we have an environment
00:27:29.87\00:27:32.88
that supports well
being. So, when you come
00:27:33.29\00:27:36.80
here you're interviewed
with doctors and nurses
00:27:36.81\00:27:40.17
and you're looked
after. So, don't be afraid to
00:27:40.85\00:27:44.87
pick up that phone
and give us a call.
00:27:44.88\00:27:46.71
Call us now in fact,
call us at 800-525-9192,
00:27:47.39\00:27:53.52
call us right now 800-525-9192.
00:27:54.24\00:28:00.26
And yes, even you,
you're little afraid or
00:28:00.60\00:28:03.15
apprehensive, pick up that
00:28:03.16\00:28:04.89
phone and call us, God bless.
00:28:04.90\00:28:07.02
