WHATS HAPPENING
n You Can help save the Day! There will be an American Red Cross Blood Drive from 1 to 5:45 p.m., on Monday, Sept. 12, at New Hope United Methodist Church, 7296 Nine Mile Rd., in Mecosta. Walk-ins are welcome or you may call Lindsey, with the Red Cross, at (231) 740-8952. n An AARP Drivers Safety Program will be offered in September through the Mecosta County Commission on Aging. Classes will run from 12:30 to 4:30 p.m. on Sept. 20 and 22. The classroom course will help older drivers become more aware of their changes in vision, hearing and reaction time and how to adjust their driving accordingly. There are no tests in the two four-hour sessions. Attendees will go over basic rules of the road and typical traffic violations elderly drivers commit. State government passed legislation encouraging auto-insurance companies to grant adults 50 and older a discount on their auto insurance for completing a drivers safety course. Attendees should consult their insurance agents to see what discounts are available. The cost is $12 for AARP members and $14 for non members. For more information or to sign up for the course, call the senior center at (231) 972-2884. n Dances are being held from 7 to 11 p.m. the third Saturday of each month at the Mecosta VFW. The dances are open to the public and cost $5 admission. The Lost Country Band plays during the dances. The dances are being held to promote something fun for young and old. Food also is available. For more information, contact Deb Stieg at (231) 972-1953.

If youre already planning to adopt or currently own a pet, have your pet spayed/neutered. Its one of the best ways to reduce overcrowding in shelters and lower euthanasia rates, yet 35 percent of the cats and dogs living in U.S. households have
HOMELESS PETS: Helping save the lives of homeless dogs and cats can be easier than many people realize. (NAPSI Photo) not had this simple and safe procedure. Cats and dogs can be spayed/neutered as early as 8 weeks old, and studies have shown that the procedure can provide significant health benefits and reduce behavioral problems. Furthermore, price doesnt have to keep you from doing the right thing for your pet. Certain clinics will provide you with spay/neuter services at a reduced cost sometimes even for free. To find one nearby,
Perhaps the easiest way to help save homeless pets is to spread the word. Let your friends, family and co-workers know that youre passionate about helping animals and how they can be part of the solution. Use social media like Facebook and Twitter to share information and opportunities to help pets with your networks. At www.peoplesavingpets. org, you can find tools and resources to help save pets lives, such as an adoptable pet locator and a low-cost spay/neuter clinic locator, and find opportunities to volunteer and donate to local animal welfare organizations.

It is fairly easy to understand that our body becomes what we eat. But to understand that we eat what we are we have to look at how we select food. In ancient days, many times there was not much choice. We ate when food was available and there were frequently periods of starvation. Today, most of us have an abundance of choices. If we had no outside inuences we would choose food that we needed. Some parents are horried because their child eats dirt. Really that child is decient in minerals and is trying to get them by eating the sand. Studies have shown that children will select healthy foods until they are taught to select foods by taste. Parental modeling and television advertising are the two big inuences on how children select food. Children learn by watching their parents. Remember that saying? What you do speaks so loudly, I cannot hear what you say!! So if a child sees coffee, pop, sweets, alcohol, prepackaged food, etc. all the time that is what they will learn to eat. I see children in my ofce that would rather have an apple than a piece of candy. Why? Parental inuence!! These children are modeling the healthy choices of their parents. I also know children whose favorite place to eat is McDonalds. Now, we know it is not because of the exquisite cuisine. They want a Happy Meal. Why? Highly successful advertising!! The Fast Food industry is very good at marketing to children. They know that if the kids nag enough, the parents will take them to McDonalds (or what ever burger joint is offering the best prize that week). The bottom line is: we select food based on our thoughts. I often see a thin person in a cafeteria saying, I can eat anything I want and never gain a pound. Then there is the person who says, This dessert will make we gain 10 pounds. Both are right. What we say and how we think about food has a huge impact on our systems. I often have heard patients who are struggling with their weight say things like, I sometimes nd myself eating without even realizing I am doing it and I am not even hungry. These are examples of how our automatic thoughts have an impact on our body, our weight, and on our over-all health. So, if our automatic thoughts inuence our food selection, we need to look at where we are. If everything is good, there is no need to change. But, if we have allergies, are over weight, have joint problems, experience asthma, ght diabetes, maybe we need to change our thinking. Learn to eat consciously and decide purposefully what to eat and how much to eat. Stop just eating automatically. Things like hypnosis can help change our automatic thought process, but thinking and choosing with awareness and purpose is really a better approach. It puts us in control and gives us a sense of mastery over our selves. The more control we can have over these simple things the better outcomes we can have in our whole lives.
