<title>PELVIC FLOOR MUSCLES AND STRESS INCONTINENCE</title>
<description><![CDATA[The pelvic floor muscles hang like a hammock, extending from the pubic bone to the tailbone under the abdominals. To be in good shape these muscles need to be able to hold in urine, gas and faeces. These same muscles need to be able to relax as well. A strong pelvic floor is as important for men as for women, because the pelvic floor muscles support the internal organs. A deficiency in these muscles can cause urinary problems in middle age. <P> Stress incontinence occurs when pressure within the abdomen causes urine to leak out involuntarily during coughing, laughing or exertion. According to physiotherapist and incontinence expert Beate Carriere, stress incontinence affects 1 in 10 men and 1 in 4 women. It also effects 17% of children between the ages of 5 and 15. <P> Dr. Arnold Kegel was one of the first authorities to specifically prescribe exercises for the pelvic floor, mainly to women whose pelvic floor muscles were slack from childbirth. ‘Kegel exercises’ were developed in the 1...]]></description>

<title>Karma Chameleon</title>
<description><![CDATA[<DIV>Article from Irish Independent 28th Feb 09</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>There was a time when yoga was simply a means of keeping the stress and fear of living under Apartheid at bay for <FONT color="#306294">South African</FONT> Bridgette Horszowski. Now living in <FONT color="#306294">Ireland</FONT>, she has turned it into a career<IMG src="/jettpic.jpg" alt="null" align="right" border="0" width="null" height="null"> </DIV>
<P>South African-born Bridgette Horszowski is a great example of how people can turn a negative into a positive when it comes to the cards they are dealt in life. While living through the oppressive days of Apartheid, she discovered the benefits of yoga as a means to destress from the social unrest around her, and later transformed her devotion into a solid source of income in Ireland. </P>
