00:12 Every year in America
00:14 there are over one million deaths 00:15 because of Type 2 diabetes and chronic obesity. 00:18 This includes heart attacks and strokes. 00:20 That's six and half 747s crashing every day. 00:24 What's even more surprising is that the fix is easy. 00:27 It's your lifestyle. 00:29 Wouldn't it be nice if you could 00:30 actually add quality years to your life 00:32 rather than dying one organ at a time? 00:35 Obesity and diabetes are the cause 00:37 of over million deaths per year. 00:39 Most diseases are reversible 00:41 because most diseases are lifestyle diseases, 00:44 especially Type 2 diabetes and chronic obesity. 00:48 Seriously now, they can be reversed 00:50 and the quality of your life can be renewed. 00:53 Call Newstart today at 1-800-525-9192. 01:00 You will see dramatic changes 01:01 in the first few days of our program 01:03 and you'll be on the road 01:05 to a better more robust quality of life. 01:07 The Newstart programs are simple and effective. 01:15 Hi, friends and welcome 01:16 to another edition of Newstart Now. 01:18 I'm your host, Ron Giannoni. 01:21 In our studio with me we have a gentleman, 01:25 by the name of, David Unnewehr 01:28 and I'd like you to take a look at the clip, 01:30 when he first arrived. 01:34 I decided to come to Weimar after much anxiety and anxious 01:40 thinking about whether this is the right place for me 01:44 because I had lost my wife, 01:47 a year ago after a long illness, 01:51 in her last year I took care of her, 01:53 so I'm the full time caretaker, 01:55 left my job and I just found that, 01:58 you know, I was gaining weight. 01:59 And you know, some other habits were not the best. 02:03 And, and so, I was spinning my wheels 02:07 for a couple months there 02:08 and not, still not ready to go back to work. 02:13 And, I just said well, you know, at some point I said, 02:18 "How am I going to get out of this situation?" 02:20 And, and you know, how, how am I going to proceed 02:27 you know, get more direction, treat myself better. 02:31 Have better health habits, get back to the exercise, 02:34 which I've always been very good about but it lacks. 02:38 You know, recently I'd like to lose 50 pounds. 02:42 And, I know, I can't lose all that here. 02:45 But, hopefully I'll have 02:47 you know, I'll learn some better habits 02:51 and, you know, just living a healthier lifestyle 02:56 and I'd always been good on exercise 02:58 but I want to, you know, 03:00 I want to get back in that discipline 03:01 and that seems to be something you can do here 03:04 and hopefully that I'll take that back. 03:07 Hi, friends and welcome back in our studio. 03:09 David, how are you sir? 03:11 I'm doing better. 03:12 Yes, I can see that from when we first spoke 03:17 which is about two, little over two weeks ago? 03:20 Over two weeks ago, right. 03:22 You know, the viewers have just watched 03:26 your interview when you first got here. 03:29 And to many people it's obvious, 03:32 why you came here. 03:34 And, others don't know, why you came here? 03:36 So, I want to talk about specifics. 03:39 We know, and you have said already that, 03:43 your wife had passed away. 03:46 And all of a sudden your life does kind of unraveled. 03:51 And you were fighting issues of one of which was depression. 03:57 And all of a sudden, 03:59 because you were living this lifestyle, 04:03 you started gaining weight, becoming more depressed, 04:08 you didn't work for quite some time. 04:11 Has any of this change? 04:14 Number one specifically, do you have hope now 04:17 that you can re-enter the world 04:21 and get back to your old lifestyle 04:25 as a rugged exercise enthusiast. 04:30 Bike rider that rode from Chicago 04:33 to the East Coast, 04:35 how's, how's, what's gonna happen? 04:38 Well, Ron, I'm, I'm very hopeful that 04:43 I always knew that I could get 04:44 the physical fitness back and lose some weight. 04:50 And that certainly happened here at Weimar, 04:51 I lost ten and a half pounds already. 04:55 Blood pressure went from borderline 04:58 to slightly below borderline 05:00 to very, very safe zone, so I'm feeling good about that. 05:03 What was it, let me ask. 05:05 I think, I think when I got here, 05:07 it was probably 135 over 88, 05:11 and now I'm consistently getting 120 over and over 80 05:14 or I had one that was 110 over 68. 05:18 All right. 05:19 So, I've never had one that low. 05:21 You know, when I was in my 20s and 30s 05:22 so, I was very happy about that. 05:24 Why do you think that happened? 05:26 Well, I think it's the, the low fat, 05:30 high plant based diet, not eating junk food. 05:35 When you know, I did cook for my wife 05:39 when she was ailing 05:40 and I learned to cook a little bit. 05:42 But, once she was gone. 05:44 You know, I did, I just didn't have that incentive 05:45 to really take care of myself. 05:48 And so, I eat out when I did eat. 05:50 Sometimes I skip meals, sometimes I had beverages 05:54 that probably weren't the best for me. 05:56 And, I just didn't... 06:03 I ate it what I would call a very haphazard diet. 06:07 Sometimes it was good, you know, 06:08 because I have those basic instincts 06:10 I've always known that, 06:11 you know, you should eat a lot of vegetables. 06:13 I have gardens, 06:15 but I kind of let my gardens go a little bit. 06:17 I know, you should eat a lot of fruit 06:19 but, you know, I was very inconsistent 06:21 and not really caring that much. 06:23 Yeah. So, all the... 06:27 Being introduced to vegan and vegetarian food that, 06:32 that really tastes good 06:34 and actually getting some cooking classes to see how, 06:38 I might try to prepare these myself 06:40 and fortunately I have some sons that love to cook. 06:43 So, I'm hoping they will help me with. 06:45 In fact one of my sons is a chef. 06:47 Really? 06:48 A pretty good chief, he was a chief in open California, 06:50 and now he's just moved back to Washington D.C. where I am. 06:54 And, I'm hoping that he'll get, maybe enthused about this too 06:57 and kind of help me along with that. 06:59 Well, I'm sure he knows a lot more than, 07:02 we even know, 07:03 because they learn this in school themselves. 07:06 They do, yeah. 07:07 So, you know, I do see a change of attitude here. 07:11 Right. 07:13 And, I see that you're a lot more open. 07:16 You're ready to hit the road, 07:18 and just, you know, go for the gusto. 07:22 How are you going to...? How's that going to manifest? 07:24 What do you, what are you going to do 07:26 when you get back home? 07:28 Well, I think, you know, I was after, 07:32 you know, I think for the first six months to a year 07:35 after you lose a spouse, you're kind of in a cocoon, 07:37 you're feeling, okay, and you're grieving 07:41 but I think the panic sort of hits 07:44 when all of sudden you realize she's gone. 07:48 I left my job, I left work to take care of her for a year, 07:52 which was a good thing to do. 07:54 But now, you know, when I started thinking 07:58 back six months ago about getting a resume, 08:01 my resume back together. 08:03 Calling up all my old contacts that I had just basic clean up, 08:09 getting organized again just seemed overwhelming, 08:11 it seems less overwhelming now. 08:13 I don't think it's completely gone. 08:14 Right. 08:16 I mean I think physically I'm back 08:18 and I know what to do on that 08:19 but, I got to work on the mental aspect too. 08:22 Well sure, but you look like a strapping guy, 08:25 you look strong and healthy, you've got good stature 08:30 and you're still a young man. 08:33 Thank you, thank you. Yes. 08:34 I can say that. 08:36 At 63, that's a good, good thing to... 08:38 Good to hear it. Yeah. 08:40 Sometimes, when you're down, you don't feel like that. 08:42 Well, of course. Yeah. 08:43 Of course. Yeah. 08:45 I can remember, when I was in my 20's 08:47 that I was feeling life, 08:49 life was going to end any minute. 08:50 Wow. 08:52 So, you know, I see 08:54 and, you know, we're going to help you. 08:57 When... 08:59 And I think this is a good segue into that. 09:02 When you leave here, 09:03 you're going to get an e-mail from me. 09:05 Oh, okay. 09:07 And the e-mail is going to say something like, 09:09 we know that being accountable is very helpful for you. 09:16 Right. And, if you choose to. 09:19 I will make a monthly call to you and we will talk. 09:24 I will encourage and inspire light of fire. 09:27 Whatever you care for me to do, I'll be there to do it. 09:31 So, I'm looking forward to work with you on that. 09:34 Well, that's great, you know, I mean accountability 09:37 is one thing that I found here, we... 09:40 Our group was special here we, 09:43 we have kind of a natural leader Jack from Rhode Island 09:46 who organized a 5 to 6 am walking group. 09:50 Yes. 09:52 And they have told us that 09:54 there has never been a pre-breakfast walking crew. 09:57 No, there hasn't, not that I know. 09:59 And we started out, well, we consistently done 10:02 about three miles before dawn every morning. 10:05 And, since the time is changing, 10:07 it's getting later every day, we started out with some light. 10:11 And then it would, the sun would rise. 10:12 Now, we're starting out with no light 10:14 and we're walking with flashlights. 10:17 But there's a lot of accountability in that group 10:19 and, you know, I'd love to take all those folks 10:22 that walk with me home. 10:23 Yeah. 10:25 But there are, some of are in L.A. 10:26 some of them are in Rhode Island, 10:28 I'm in Maryland so, I don't know how I can do that 10:34 but maybe we can do a skype walk. 10:36 Call in the morning but, if you call me, 10:38 that's going to help too. 10:39 You bet, you bet. 10:40 And, you know, there is a special thing 10:43 that happens with our guests 10:45 when they come through the program. 10:47 And I know this because I was one of you. 10:49 As I have already testified. 10:52 And we get very close, 10:55 there's a bonding that takes place. 10:57 When, people come together for a common cause to get well. 11:02 Miracles happen. Right. 11:04 And I know you've seen several 11:06 right here in the last couple of weeks. 11:08 That's right. 11:09 Nonetheless, please do keep in contact with these folks. 11:15 Yeah. They'll help you. 11:16 Yeah. 11:18 It's amazing, sometimes I wonder 11:20 who the doctors are, the guests 11:22 who are helping one another 11:25 or the doctors and, you know, I mean 11:28 it's just like we, we help one another. 11:30 Right. Who is your doctor? 11:32 Isn't doctor Ing? 11:33 It's Dr. Ing. Yes. 11:34 And I really got along well with him. 11:37 He's a really caring man. 11:39 Isn't he a special guy. 11:41 Have you ever had a doctor, spend an hour with you. 11:45 No, I never have and the thing that 11:47 really amazed me was after, after second 11:53 and every appointment since, 11:55 we have about 15 or 20 minutes together. 11:57 And, then he says, "Let's go for a walk." 11:59 Yeah. 12:00 Now, has anybody ever had a doctor 12:02 that says, "Let's go for a walk" 12:03 and he, he walks with each of his patients. 12:06 That's right. Yeah. 12:08 I remember that. Yeah. 12:09 And by the way, they also take you to the house 12:13 and fix you a nice meal that first Friday night. 12:15 Oh, yeah. I bet you enjoyed that? 12:17 Oh, yeah. Dr. Lukens did that. 12:19 Right, well actually it was Dr. Ing. 12:21 Oh, was Dr. Ing? Dr. Ing. 12:23 Oh, okay. And, and his wife Mae. 12:25 All right. 12:26 And she had a special treat, 12:30 some kind of cookie, you know, ball type shape that, 12:34 reminded me of the cookie, 12:36 the powdered sugar cookies my mom used to make, 12:41 except they didn't have the, 12:43 the sugar or anything like that. 12:44 With the rum inside or without the rum? 12:45 Oh, no rum, no rum, I don't think. 12:47 The rum balls. Yeah, yeah. 12:49 We ran out of time. Okay. 12:51 I want to thank you and God bless you. 12:54 We'll be talking. Yeah. Okay. 12:57 Now, friends, don't go away, 12:59 because Dr. Ing is going to be right with us, 13:02 after this very important message. 13:11 Welcome to Ask the Doctor. I'm Dr. David DeRose. 13:15 We're taking your questions 13:17 and we're going today to Lisa, in West Virginia. 13:20 Here's Lisa's question, "Here in America, 13:23 what would you recommend as the best diet 13:27 for the general population to follow and why?" 13:31 Well, I wish I could tell you there was one best diet 13:33 for every single person. 13:35 But, the amazing thing is we're all different. 13:38 But there is one general dietary strategy 13:40 that nutritionist after nutritionist 13:43 is pointing us to, it's a voice, it's a chorus, 13:46 it's been growing in volume over the last decade or two. 13:51 They're telling us listen, 13:52 "Move more toward a vegetarian diet." 13:55 Eat more of those plant foods, more whole fruits, 13:58 whole grains, vegetables, nuts, seeds. 14:02 Some of you, as you listen to this message, you'd say, 14:03 "But I've been hearing this message so much, 14:05 I wanted to hear something different on this show." 14:09 Actually, it's hard to change the truth. 14:11 And so, many Americans are getting the message, 14:14 they're getting away from their heavy abundance 14:16 of meat, milk, eggs and cheese 14:18 and they're going to more plant products. 14:20 Some of you'll say, "Well, Dr. DeRose, 14:21 that's why I am essentially a vegetarian. 14:23 I'm only eating animal products once a week or less." 14:27 Well, that's great, 14:28 but you want to know something amazing, 14:30 some of the latest data from one of the most impressive 14:33 medical research studies have some 90,000 people 14:37 and what's being called the Adventist Health Study too. 14:40 Some of you know Seventh-day Adventists, 14:42 among the healthiest people in the world. 14:44 The federal government of the United Sates 14:46 has spent million of dollars, trying to study 14:48 why Seventh-day Adventists are so healthy. 14:51 Because they're not interested 14:52 in making the general populist Adventists, 14:55 but they want to get the benefits 14:57 from this people group and extend them 14:59 to the whole population. 15:01 What is some of the most recent data 15:03 from the Adventist Health Study showing? 15:04 They're actually showing, 15:06 that if you're a semi-vegetarian, 15:08 if you're only having occasional serving of meat, 15:11 milk, eggs or cheese, 15:12 your health is significantly worse. 15:15 When it comes to a risk of developing things 15:17 like diabetes and high blood pressure 15:20 than a total vegetarian or vegan. 15:23 The message is simply this. 15:25 For most people getting all the animal products 15:28 out of their diet is the most powerful 15:31 health giving diet on the planet. 15:34 And if you move in that direction, 15:36 you will likely see significant health benefits. 15:39 I'm Dr. David DeRose, thank you for joining us 15:42 on today's editions of Ask the doctor. 15:44 You can be a part of the dialog. 15:46 Simple send us your questions, ask@lifeandhealth.org. 15:56 Welcome, back friends. 15:57 And as I promised Dr. Clarence Ing. 16:00 It's great to be here, Ron. 16:01 Good to see you Doc. And it's... 16:03 I can hardly wait to talk about Dave, 16:06 such a precious soul, 16:10 let me just ask you, just in general, 16:12 how did he do during the program? 16:13 Well, I was here in the program, 16:15 you learn the importance of good healthy diet. 16:18 The advantages of a plant based diet. 16:21 He was fortunate be in, 16:23 before he came his cholesterol levels were good, 16:26 you know, he, he doesn't have high blood pressure 16:28 heart disease, so that's marvelous. 16:31 And so we learned some important things 16:33 and the importance of activity. 16:35 And so he chose to continue to do these things 16:40 and I think that's important. 16:42 One of the things I noticed 16:44 and I noticed because I remember 16:46 when I came through the program, 16:48 I saw that I was at a place where people cared about me 16:54 and I felt that way about my doctor, 16:57 I felt that way about you, you were here then. 17:00 Dr. Lukens was here, and Michael was my 17:03 personal physician at the time and I just felt like, 17:07 this is the place I need to be, these people really care. 17:12 Does in fact attitude have something to do with healing? 17:18 Oh, attitude in what you think about have a, 17:21 I think it really have tremendous impact 17:24 on our health, you know, there is a familiar text 17:27 with many of our listeners here are familiar with, 17:30 it says, "A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: 17:33 but a broken spirit drieth the bones." 17:36 Well, I like the good news paraphrase of that 17:39 and says, "Be happy, be healthy, 17:41 why do you want to be gloomy and sick all the time." 17:45 And, you know, broken spirit drieth the bones, 17:49 your immune systems, your red blood cells, 17:51 I mean your white blood cells are made in the bone marrow. 17:54 And it's pretty common knowledge 17:57 that when people are depressed and down, 18:00 they have more health problems and they don't do as well. 18:04 So, that's the other side of the coin. 18:06 You have a choice of being, 18:10 can we really choose our attitudes. 18:13 How can we change, when we're feeling down, 18:16 maybe I'll use a word, this is, maybe to heavy. 18:20 Maybe we'll feel little depressed or anxious, 18:23 how do we change that? 18:24 Well, I think what's really important is, 18:26 what you choose to think about and that's important choice. 18:32 Choice is just really important. 18:35 Now, we understand we can't control 18:37 all the thoughts that go, come into our mind. 18:40 But out of the ones that come into our mind, 18:42 we are the ones who choose, 18:45 select which one's we're going to think about. 18:48 And I think there we need to think 18:50 upon the positive things. 18:52 I mean, you know, you read in the Bible, 18:56 you can think, you develop on the positive, the good, 18:58 it doesn't tell us to think about 18:59 all the bad things that have happened to us. 19:01 All the people who have hurt us 19:03 or taken advantage of us, dwell on the positive. 19:06 And that's what the Apostle Paul writes for us. 19:09 So, I think the same thing, 19:11 it's true that I may have some negative thoughts in my mind, 19:14 but I don't have to think about those. 19:17 And, you know, 19:19 I thought about things that might possibly happen. 19:23 And I give an illustration sometimes in the class, 19:26 you know, I get up in the morning 19:28 and I've got to take a shower and get to work. 19:30 But as I step in the shower I think oh, you know, 19:34 if I'm not careful, I could slip and break my leg. 19:37 And then I couldn't get to work. 19:39 So, then I go back to bed and I lie down in bed, 19:42 I pull up the covers and I'm very comfortable. 19:44 Then I start to think, 19:46 you know, more people die in bed than any other place. 19:48 Beds are really pretty dangerous, 19:50 I better get out of here. 19:51 You better get out of the bed. 19:53 Yeah, and so, then I say, 19:55 "Well, I guess I could go get in my car and drive to work." 19:59 And I said, you know, "35,000 plus thousand 20:04 people die in motor vehicle accidents each year." 20:07 You know, I could get killed on my way to work. 20:10 And so, says, you know, "This is a bus, 20:12 I got to start thinking more positively so-- 20:16 That's a great illustration how we can really ruin our day. 20:21 But, you know, there are those 20:24 who perhaps would need to come here 20:27 for Dr. Nedley's depression recovery program. 20:30 Right. 20:32 Which we do have available so, friends, 20:34 you could call us about the depression recovery. 20:37 They happen every couple of months or so. 20:40 But, doctor, I want to just take a moment and thank you. 20:44 I know you're busy guy. 20:46 And, you've taken your time here 20:48 to talk with us about Dave. 20:50 So, thank you very much, 20:53 looking forward to working with you more in the future. 20:56 And be careful what you choose to think about. 20:59 Amen. 21:00 And, friends, you be careful what you choose to think about, 21:04 but, don't go away we have a tip for you. 21:14 My name is Jennifer Jill Schwirzer. 21:16 I am a licensed counselor, professional counselor. 21:20 Licensed in the State of Pennsylvania 21:22 and nationally certified. 21:23 Some people call, people like me psychotherapist. 21:27 Day in and day out people come into my office 21:29 and we work through their problems 21:31 and I see certain patterns that tend to repeat themselves. 21:34 And I decided to boil down those patterns 21:37 into a presentation that I call 21:39 the Seven Deadly Psychological Sins. 21:43 Let me share a little bit about 21:44 what I mean about deadly psychological sins. 21:46 These aren't moral sins per se. 21:48 But there are things that we do that sabotage ourselves, 21:53 hurt other people or sabotage our relationships. 21:56 In other words, there are ways in which we dysfunction. 21:58 We might say it that way. 22:00 The format of my videos here is that, 22:03 I'm going to start out with the deadly psychological sin, 22:05 I'm going to develop it, I'm going to help explain 22:07 what I'm talking about. 22:09 And then I'm gonna share with you 22:10 a Replacement Behavior, 22:12 because it's futile to just point out our problems. 22:16 We need to come up with a replacement 22:17 for those problems. 22:18 We have an expression 22:20 in behavioral psychology which says, 22:22 "That negative reinforcement stops behavior 22:24 but positive reinforcement encourages behavior." 22:27 So, if we don't replace those negative patterns 22:30 with something positive, 22:32 then we're likely to relapse just like Jesus said, 22:35 "If you get one demon out, 22:37 if you don't fill that room with something, 22:38 seven more are going to come in." 22:40 So, I'm gonna give you the replacement behavior 22:42 that will help to substitute for that dysfunctional pattern 22:46 in your life or in the life of someone else. 22:48 And, I hope it's real helpful to you, 22:49 I'm gonna do my best to share 22:51 something that's encouraging 22:52 and uplifting and useful to you. 23:01 First deadly psychological sin is criticism, criticism, 23:06 I don't know if you've borne 23:07 the brunt of being raised in a critical home. 23:10 But human beings are by nature 23:13 negatively focused and problem focused. 23:17 In fact, research has shown that 75% of the interactions 23:21 between teachers in elementary school 23:23 and their students is negative. 23:26 Research has also shown that in a child's life time 23:29 from birth to 18-years old he hears the word "No." 23:32 from his parents, 148,000 times. 23:37 Bottom line of all this is that positive interaction. 23:41 And particularly affirmation versus criticism 23:44 is a learned skill, 23:45 it's something we have to do proactively and intentionally 23:48 or we will revert back to our critical patterns. 23:52 Story is told of a young man, 23:54 who was complaining about of the hymns at church, 23:57 he said, "They were very boring." 23:59 His father said, "Well, if you're going 24:00 to complain about it then write one of your own." 24:02 Boy went into his bedroom, and he wrote to him, 24:06 "When I surveyed the wondrous cross." 24:10 The young man was Isaac Watts 24:11 and he went on to write over 350, 24:14 many of them famous hymns including, "Joy to the world." 24:17 So, there's a place for criticism. 24:19 Criticism serves a function. 24:21 We by nature as human beings are, are capable of reason 24:25 and what we call critical thinking. 24:27 All criticism is not bad. 24:28 But we need to sort of capture this beast 24:31 and train it, so that it benefits us and others. 24:35 Scientific research has shown that people 24:38 that are raised in critical environments 24:41 where there is much criticism among the family of origin, 24:44 tend to have more depression diagnoses 24:47 and more depressive symptoms. 24:49 In fact, a critical environment at home has been associated 24:53 with a broad spectrum of mental illnesses, 24:56 such as schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders. 24:59 I have a quote here from Abraham Lincoln, 25:01 "He has the right to criticize who has the heart to help." 25:06 In order to find out, 25:08 if you have the heart to help that person, 25:09 I recommend that you ask yourself three questions 25:11 before criticizing them. 25:13 Number one, "Do I love to criticize? 25:15 Or do I hate to criticize?' 25:16 If you love it, 25:18 I think you need to give yourself pause there. 25:19 Number two, "Am I doing it to help? 25:23 Is that my motive?" 25:25 Number three, "Will I do it kindly 25:28 and will I do it to that person's face?" 25:31 Be aware of cyber criticism. 25:34 Cyber criticism can easily turn into a form of cyber bullying. 25:39 It's really best when you're addressing sensitive topics 25:42 to talk to that person eyeball to eyeball so to speak. 25:45 The replacement for criticism, I'm sure you're dying to know, 25:48 very simple. 25:50 It's affirmation, learn to affirm people. 25:53 This does not come naturally to us. 25:55 I recommend that if you're a critic holic, 25:57 we might call it. 25:59 That you go on a criticism fast, 26:00 for two to three weeks where you criticize, nothing, 26:04 no one, not even yourself for three weeks. 26:07 I challenge you to try that. 26:09 And then afterwards, you, when you issue a criticism 26:12 always do it in what we call, affirmation sandwich style. 26:16 You will affirm that person. Then you issue the criticism. 26:20 And then you followed up with another affirmation. 26:23 This helps to soften the blow. 26:25 Marriage experts, John Gottman say, 26:27 "That in order to neutralize 26:29 the emotional impact of a criticism, 26:32 one must affirm five times." 26:34 So remember that ratio five affirmations to one criticism. 26:40 What is the affect of an affirming 26:42 environment in the home? 26:43 We've talked about the affect of a critical environment. 26:45 What's, what's the affect of an affirming environment? 26:49 Some research has shown 26:51 that there is a positive correlation 26:54 between fatherly affirmation and high self-esteem in girls. 27:00 There's a negative correlation 27:02 between fatherly affirmation and fear of intimacy. 27:07 So in other words, if father's affirm their daughters, 27:10 they're likely to feel good about themselves 27:12 and they're likely to be able 27:14 to develop healthy relationships. 27:15 Sounds like a good thing to do. Try starting today. 27:19 Affirming someone that you would normally criticize. 27:21 And, usually I hate to say 27:22 if it's those that are closest to us 27:24 that we tend to be so critical of. 27:26 But try turning that around and intentionally proactively 27:30 affirming that person, they won't know what happened. 27:34 Well, friends that's it for today 27:36 but join us next week for another episode. 27:39 In the meantime, pick up the phone 27:41 and give us a call at 1-800-525-9192. 27:47 Mention the Newstart Now program 27:49 and receive The Newstart Special. |
