Understanding the Healing Energy of Infrared Saunas and Lamps

Ancient healers and modern eastern cultures are well aware of the radiant healing energy of the sun. This knowledge is only recently being appreciated in the west. It is accepted that all energy on the planet comes from the sun. Heat drives the universe. Plants thrive only in sunlight, or under artificial wide spectrum lights. A visit to your local pet store would reveal that reptiles are kept healthy by a constant dosage of infrared heat from infrared lamps. Infrared heat is also used to keep food warm in restaurants. The pork and chicken you buy from the grocery store most likely came from a farm that uses infrared lamps to keep the animals thriving indoors. When a person dies, the breath leaves the body, followed immediately by the loss of all heat. The radiant heat of the body is in the infrared range. Live bodies continually absorb and emit heat, and as previously mentioned, this infrared heat has its origin in the energy of the sun. The balance between the absorption and emission of energy (like the balance between Yin and Yang), is necessary to health. Energy is absorbed by the body is through the intake of food and drink, and also through sunlight. Food, drink and sunlight are all naturally healing entities and necessary for the maintenance of life.

After its discovery in modern times, electricity began to be used for heating and lighting by the means of currents flowing though elements or filaments. Electrical heat is widely used to heat homes. What is felt as heat is the body's response to natural electromagnetic radiation emissions. Infrared heat lamps are different from lamps used for electrical lighting because of the design of the filament. The elements used for infrared lamps and heaters use low amounts of energy and heat efficiently. The chemicals in the element of infrared heaters, when heated by electrical currents, emit light in the Near Infrared, Middle Infrared, Far Infrared and Far-Far Infrared spectrums. Near infrared is close to visible light and Far Infrared red is invisible, but for the general purposes, using the word 'infrared' is sufficient. In infrared lamps, the bulb can be clear, red, or frosted inside. (Clear is used to simulate daylight for the reptiles in the pet store and red is used to simulate night). The wattage of electricity is what determines the strength of the infrared heat emitted.

Infrared heaters used in sauna cabinets for sauna purposes are called infrared saunas. Infrared heaters, similar to infrared lamps, pass electricity though chemical based elements to give off electromagnetism in the infrared spectrum. In the infrared saunas, these radiant electromagnetic waves are reflected onto the body. The body is heated by this radiant heat, but the surrounding air is not. Infrared heat is considered safe enough to keep newborn babies in hospitals warm. Therapy in an infrared sauna is called whole body therapy. Therapy using an infrared lamp is aimed at just one specific location.

Using infrared healing, as with any type of healing, must be done with caution. These concerns are all covered in information given in my website. From a universal perspective, infrared healing is safe for almost all people. Having an infrared sauna is a life changing acquisition, and quality is of utmost importance. Infrared saunas of higher quality come with lifetime warranties. No plumbing is required in infrared saunas and once assembled, all that is necessary is to plug them into a normal household outlet. Because this acquisition is a big decision, be sure to purchase one that could be easily disassembled so that you can take with you if you move. Infrared saunas come in different sizes, and can hold different amounts of people

The tradition of using and enjoying saunas is rooted in ancient healing and meditation practices. An infrared sauna can even be used for daily meditation. The benefits of having 15 minutes or so to yourself in a healing environment, away from the cares and worries of the world, de-stressing, is a source of utmost physical, mental and spiritual contentment.

Surveying Clients About Your Website

In a previous article, I talked about determining when and if a website should be redesigned. One of the suggestions I made was that to help you determine if your website should be redesigned is to send a survey to your top fifty clients or so.

I thought I would go ahead and list some sample questions that could be included on such a survey. Keep in mind that this survey can be used not only to determine if your website needs to be redesigned, but also to determine generally how effective your website is.

I suggest the following comments/questions be answered on a 1-5 scale, where 1 means strongly disagree, 3 means neutral and 5 means strongly agree. An N/A option could be included as well. You should also include a section for comments at the bottom.

* I find it easy to navigate the website. * The content on the site is appropriate. * I find the site's content interesting. * The site's design looks dated. * I like the site's color scheme. * The site should be more interactive. * The site design is appropriate for the subject matter and content. * The title of the site is appropriate placed on each page. * The header of the site is an appropriate size. * The amount of space the navigation takes up is appropriate. * There are too many images on the site. * The site takes too long to load. * I will visit this site again.

In addition to those questions, the following may help as well.

* I visit the site: A. Less than once a month B. 1-2 times a month C. 2-5 times a month D. 5-10 times a month E. More than 10 times a month F. I have no idea

* I have recommended or talked about something on the site to: A. No one B. 1-5 people C. 6-15 people D. 15-30 people E. More than 30 people F. I have no idea

* I spend the most time in the following section of the site: A. Section 1 Name B. Section 2 Name C. Section 3 Name ... Z. I have no idea

* List five other, similar websites to ours that you frequently visit.

* List five things you'd like to see on our site.

* If you had to eliminate one section of our website, what section would it be?

* Where did you first hear about our website?

* Have you ever clicked on an advertisement that was displayed on our site?

There will probably be questions that are specific to your website that you should also ask. An arcade might ask whether the survey taker prefers arcade games or redemption games. A news publication might ask if the survey taker also receives a hard copy of the newspaper or magazine.

If it is possible, you should send out paper copies of the survey, but also make an online version available. Make sure you have the same questions and options in both places.

In addition to sending the survey to your clients, readers and/or customers, give them incentive to fill it out. Tell them they will be entered into some sort of drawing for filling out the survey. Make sure you include space for their name, address, phone number and email address so you'll know who turned in what survey.

Once you get the surveys, use Excel or a similar program to gather and analyze the data. Then you will know some ways in which you can improve your site.

Don't Fall Prey to Survey Scams!

'Make money at home and be your own boss!'

How many times have you seen/heard that line? Sure, you can make money online by doing paid surveys, but with a vast amount of programmes to choose from which ones are real money makers and which are simply going to waste your time? We have done extensive research into the online paid surveys industry, and created a paid survey reviews website.

Quite frankly, alot of the sites we found were badly designed and not user friendly, with no real prospects for making money. Most offered outdated directories, no customer service and no refunds. There is an outrageous amount of scam survey sites out there, far more than legitimate ones. It seems almost anyone can start a paid surveys site.

Fortunately, we found three paid surveys sites to be above average of standards all with highly satisfied customers. They all use legitimate payment gateways with full refund guarantees. They also offer very good customer service. We have independently reviewed the best of the best for you, to help save you time, maximise your return and find the right paid surveys so you can make money online.

Make Money Online Taking Free Surveys

Is it really possible to make money taking free paid online surveys? The answer is a resounding Yes!! As a stay-at-home Mom, taking surveys was one of the first things that I decided to try. I currently am making an average of $100 to $200 per month, not including any prizes won, and I'd be happy to show you how.

The first thing you should know is that you should never pay money to join any survey company. Any legitimate survey company is free to join.

Survey companies will compensate you for taking surveys in several ways. Most initiative include entries into drawings for cash, free products, gift certificates, points redeemable for various incentives, and cash via check or pay-pal.

You should sign up for several companies in order to maximize your profits. I am currently signed up with all 200 free online survey companies listed on Melody's Mommy. You can view this list by going to Melody's Mommy http://www.melodysmommy.com and going to the section called Paid Surveys. This gives me an average of five to ten surveys to fill out per day. It takes me approximately a half an hour per day to respond to all the surveys. The more surveys you take, the more invitations you will receive, and the greater the incentives become. It is very similar to building a business.

Filling out the initial questionairs on each of the websites can be time consuming. In order to cut down on your time you can use a free form filler to process most of the work for you. One that I personally use and recommend is Roboform. It is free and very easy to use. You can download your free copy at Roboform.

Once you've completed the initial surveys for each website, the surveys will start rolling in. You want to check your e-mail as often as possible. The reason for this is that you want to respond quickly to the ones that offer higher incentives. These invitations sometimes are limited to a select number of responses. If you scan your e-mail frequently, you will ensure that you don't miss any of these opportunities.
