Movement as Medicine: A Universal Antidote to Aging

Apr 14, 2011 06:51PM ● By Katy Bowman

Have you ever compared the benefits of a walk around the park with taking an anti-inflammatory medication? How about correlating a game of hopscotch with high bone density? Many of us are very compliant when following a drug, herbal or vitamin prescription, but when our health care practitioner recommends exercise as a treatment, we too often accept that information with a shrug. It just doesn’t seem as critical. Yet, just as chemicals may affect specific body tissues, so do different machines, movements and modes of exercise.

Lomi Lomi - Ancient Hawaiian Massage

Apr 14, 2011 06:49PM ● By Karen Stresau

Lomi Lomi is an ancient massage technique that originated in Hawaii. It is based on the philosophy that every one of us seeks to love and be loved. It is also founded on the belief that all living things seek to be in balance and harmony with their surroundings. Much more than a massage, Lomi Lomi is done with prayer and intention. During a session the practitioner holds sacred space for their client, enlisting the help of a higher power or vibration to loosen blocked energy and move it out of the body. Lomi Lomi is the bringing of light into the body and the expansion of one’s inner essence through the cells. It brings about rejuvenation of the spirit and helps us to move forward in our lives.

Cure the common culprit: Food Allergies

Apr 14, 2011 06:48PM ● By Jessica Pesha, A.P.

Have you ever wondered why you can’t eat certain foods without feeling the uninvited repercussions? What is it about strawberries that make the skin dry and patchy? Or, how come cheeseburgers upset the stomach? Why does dairy irritate the sinuses? The answer is simple: food allergies. Many often interpret the term "food allergy," as a negative reaction to food that causes angio-edema, unexplainable hives, or anaphylactic shock. However, these are the symptoms of a severe allergic reaction. It is common for many people to experience physical or digestive reactions to food, which are referred to as food sensitivities.

Spring Cleaning from the Inside

Apr 14, 2011 06:41PM ● By Kim Smith

Cleansing your body can change your life. Cleansing can restore lost energy and vitality. Many report feeling happier, healthier, and better able to deal with stress. Many of the discomforts and symptoms we attribute to age can actually be the result of toxic build-up. Menopause, widely considered a sign of aging, is often associated with stressful symptoms like hot flashes, sweating, irritability, depression, and stomach upset. Once menstruation ends, the body loses a valuable natural cleansing mechanism. Toxins then overload other eliminatory channels causing physical symptoms to appear.
