  • Discovering Feldenkrais® Fitness
    By Renee Lindstrom, GCFP / Certified Feldenkrais Practitioner® and Independent Communication Facilitator
    The Feldenkrais® Method of fitness is a consciousness. It can become a system of intellect within oneself. It creates an awareness of expanding and qualifying self-use of actions in one’s experience, allowing for more use of the whole self in supporting the action. These qualities consist of what arises within us, from our thoughts and emotions, to the sensations of the finer moving parts connected in the pattern of movement through the whole body. It trains the mind to relax, to experience the quality within oneself, and to access clarity of observation and experience in oneself. This experience is provided through a learning environment and system of movement with which we each inherently begin life. It is modeled upon our early exploration patterns of developing recognition, therefore moving with intention.

    Treating Colds and Flu with Herbal Medicine
    by Karen Vaughan, L.Ac. / Licensed Acupuncturist And Herbalist
    Chinese medicine divides respiratory illnesses into Wind heat and Wind cold and discusses degree of penetration. If you are more feverish than chilled, if your tongue is redder or your tongue fur is yellow, then you have Wind heat. If your chills are more pronounced than feverishness, your tongue coat is white and thin and your tongue is a mild red, then chances are you have Wind cold. Initial levels of both Wind heat and Wind cold are treated by inducing sweating. You would take a warm bath, cover yourself with quilts and go to bed drinking the teas. If the disease is not treated at this level or is treated inappropriately then it will penetrate to more internal levels and you will need strong antimicrobial herbs that drain the pathogens through the bowels and the urine.

     FEATURED MODALITY
    Reconnective Healing - The New Frequencies of Healing
    We are in the midst of an encouraging new shift on the planet, one that allows us to tap into incredible new frequencies of healing and evolution. These amazing frequencies - called Reconnective Healing frequencies - were first discovered and employed by Eric Pearl, D.C., a highly successful doctor in Los Angeles. Dr. Pearl and his staff now travel the world 45 weeks each year teaching people how to heal themselves and others on all levels of mind, body and spirit. These healings first manifested through him one day when, after 12 years of practice, his patients suddenly began to report miraculous healings from birth disfigurements, chronic fatigue syndrome, cancers, AIDS-related disorders, cerebral palsy and more. Not all of them, but a lot of them. Enough of them so that the world began to recognize that something very real was happening. And the healings came about without him needing to physically touch his patients. He merely held his hands near them!

    These frequencies have been studied by leading doctors and medical researchers worldwide as they attempt to explain their power, source and function. Internationally prominent natives of Arizona, Gary Schwartz, PhD and William Tiller, PhD, are currently conducting new research programs on these frequencies. Their highly anticipated results are expected to be published later this year.

     FEATURED BOOK
    LIFE and MIND —
    In Search of
    the Physical Basis

    Edited by Savely Savva

    Contemporary physics cannot explain life. The postulated concept of the biofield control system and experimental and theoretical works presented in LIFE and MIND - In Search of the Physical Basis suggest ways to broaden current scientific paradigm. Experimental studies presented and referred to in this book suggest that the operation of the organism cannot be reduced to chemical interactions since contemporary chemistry knows only electric and thermal forces; that the biological nuclear synthesis presented by Louis Kervran in 1960-80's is not a myth; that the non-structural memory of water manifests itself at organism, cellular and enzymes levels; that human intent and / or expectation may effect cellular equilibrium, etc.
