M
ay is when we celebrate a mother’s love.
Pondering a mother’s love, we imagine a deep, special connection. That love means something different for each of us. Even the word mother can conjure up many different images and thoughts. Taking it a bit further, motherhood can come in many forms; biological, special friends, mentors, teachers and other kinds of relationships that fulfill the beautiful qualities we associate with a mother’s love and help nourish and nurture us. One of the qualities most closely associated with motherhood is caretaking. Caring for someone can occur on many different levels. The ability to care for others requires compassion, empathy, desire, patience, skill and strength. In order to provide the strength and compassion caregiving requires, we must first care for ourselves. Think about when you are on an airplane and the attendants are going through the safety routine. When it comes to the oxygen mask, they always tell you to “put your mask on first, so then you can help care for others.” Self-care runs deep, as it is the foundation of you and has the potential to impact all areas of your life. “Your relationship with yourself sets the tone for every other relationship you have.”
As we honor Mother’s Day, I encourage you to first honor yourself. What kinds of things are you doing each day to show yourself love and care? Self-care can be confusing to many of us, especially for mothers, as we often hear women say that their children come first. Also, there is a perception that self-care can be viewed as selfish. On the topic of love, let’s start with selflove. What does it mean? One of the first steps to self-love is to be aware of the kind of things that give you energy or a sense of purpose. Have you taken a moment to think about what those are? What activities give you joy? When do you feel a sense of calm and purpose? Ask and answer those empowering questions. The next step is to identify the things you can do to create more of those things in your life. Spend time on the activities that you identified are important to your well being because they will give you the strength and energy to feel good about yourself, and in turn be able to care for others. Wayne Dyer says it beautifully: “Don’t die with your music still inside you. Listen to your intuitive inner voice and find what passion stirs your soul. When you do this, you’re also tapping into another face of intention: LOVE.” Find out what speaks to your heart and look for ways to get more of that into your life. Once you know
that, you are on your way to nourishing yourself in ways that will renew and keep you at your best. Physical care comes in many forms and is easy to incorporate into your day. Simply taking a few moments to breathe as deeply as possible and exhale with force will instantly help you feel better. Our May issue is full of wonderful opportunities for self care, whether it’s seeking the advice of a professional, or the fellowship of a support group about nutrition, spirituality, relationships or fitness. Take a look at the wonderful health providers this month who are sharing their message with you. Attend a powerful event devoted to selfdiscovery—the Rankema World Event in June. There are many wonderful opportunities to give you the gift of self-growth. Like us on Facebook and take advantage of the daily health tips to support your journey of self care! Happy Mother’s Day! Let’s make May a loving and nourishing month!

To say that Dr. Abey’s background is impressive would be an understatement. He belongs to a lineage of 31 generations of unbroken, traditional Ayurveda since Rishi Pulasti (2668 – 2616 B.C), and began his career with a hermit monk studying old Buddhist texts in Pali and Sanskrit.
It is his particular concern to evoke a feeling of value and appreciation in people for fundamental life-giving and lifesustaining principles regarding ourselves, others and our natural and spiritual resources — only in this way can we successfully master the global challenges of the 21st century.
From the age of 12, he lived with his Ayurveda Master, Porevede Rishi (1928-2002) who taught him the ancient principles and knowledge of herbal studies and ‘energy’ medicine. Eight years later, he entered the Vidyodaya Ayurveda Faculty in Colombo where he graduated in October 2000 as “Ayurveda Vaidya.” He also gained a profound wisdom and deep connection to his Master Ariesen Ahubudu (1920 -2011, advisor for many years to several Singhalese presidents).
Dr. Abey treats an international clientele from Europe and the U.S. Among his patients are the former Prime Minister of India, I.K. GUJRAL and the Health Minister of Sri Lanka. Next to Singhalese, Pali and Sanskrit, Dr. Abeywickrama speaks English and German.
Dr. Abey is also at the forefront of bringing back ancient methods of farming and instilling the once-lost traditions and worthiness for all farmers by providing an opportunity for them to participate in harvesting sacred rice. He is implementing this toxic-free process for today's farmers, and is able to present this process to other countries so they too may gain prosperity while providing a healthy diet, gaining confidence and independence.

Are OR You Healthy? JUST NOT SICK? Written by Dr. Tony Jensen
When you ask that question, most people would say, "be healthy," but in fact, a lot of people are just not sick. That's because they are missing the subtle warning sign the body is trying to give them. When you ask most people what makes you healthy, they’ll tell you nutrition and exercise. These are two big components to better health, but most people overlook other key components: emotional health and the brain and nervous system. All of these play a major role in your overall function of good health. Nutrition is very important and is overlooked more than we think. Most people eat a lot of processed foods that taste great, but this is not very nutritious. A healthy diet is not as confusing or restrictive as you might think. It’s about choosing foods that provide your body with the calories and nutrients it needs to perform – not more or less.
12
The best way to start is to learn the recommended daily calorie intake for your age, weight, height, activity level and gender. In other words, skip the fads and focus on proper nutrition. After figuring out your nutrition needs, you’ll need to decide what type of exercise will be best for you. Your exercise program should include something from each of the four basic fitness components: 1. Cardio respiratory endurance 2. Muscular strength 3. Muscular endurance 4. Flexibility Each workout should begin with a warm up and end with a cool down.

WATER FILTRATION
IS IMPORTANT
Written by Michael Gerber, MD, HMD
A
lthough the water coming from our treatment plants must meet strict guidelines to ensure it is safe, that does not mean it is free from all contaminants.
Cysts from bacteria and protozoa, chlorine and, more importantly, disinfectant byproducts, (DBI’s) such as trihalomethanes, chloroform and haloacetic acids, lead, asbestos, mercury, herbicides, pesticides and many medical drugs and hormones, are commonly found in tap water. Fortunately, in Washoe County we do not have fluoride in our water (thanks Senator Raggio!), nor do the counties in Nevada with less than 400,000 populations. Fluoride is toxic to the body1. It blocks thyroid function, causes osteoporosis, increases bone cancer risk and mottling of the teeth, to name a very few disorders. It is also difficult to filter out. DBI’s, especially trihalomethanes, are Cancer Group B carcinogens and have been shown to cause cancer in laboratory animals and have been linked to reproductive problems in both animals and humans. A lifetime consumption of chlorinated water doubled the risk for human bladder and rectal cancer in some indivituals2. Medical drugs, such as atenolol, atrazine, carbamazepine, estrone (estrogen hormone), gemfibrozil, naproxen, phenytoin and sulfa drugs, are the top several found in tap water as reported in New Scientist.

Sadly, some areas of Northern Nevada’s well water, especially Fernley, Fallon and Washoe Valley, are highly contaminated with arsenic, a potent metabolic toxin. Some of our patients have shown hair arsenic levels 16 and 17 times above the normal limit. These people frequently have multiple ailments, including crushing depression and severe fatigue. Arsenic is very difficult and expensive to remove.
WATER FILTRATION There are many choices available for water filtration. Reverse osmosis filtration has been popular for under-the-sink units for some time. However, it removes many good minerals and is relatively inefficient. Two to 10 gallons of water are wasted down the drain for every gallon of water filtered. Distillation also removes all the minerals and produces acid water. It removes good minerals from the body upon ingestion and concentrates toxins in the water, such as the DBIs. A triple filtration system is our current choice for water purification. Since 1984 KDF, a high purity copper-zinc formulation has been used to pretreat the water. It extends filter cartridge life for up to one year. The second stage filter cartridge is .5 micron absolute pleated filter.

The third stage is a 1 micron organic coconut carbon block filter, which doesn’t breakdown or allow bits of charcoal to flow into the filtered water. The coconut carbon block completes this high-quality filtration.

These systems are easy to install under the kitchen sink, but it is even more advantageous to pursue whole house filtration. It is possible to absorb one pint of water during a shower and much more in a bath. Shower head water filtration is also available, but it needs quarterly cartridge changes. Since water is our second most important nutrient after breathing air, it is terribly important to protect our families with pure water. Contact Gerber Medical Clinic for more information.

High testosterone in relationship to low oxytocin results in autistic tendencies. Low testosterone relative to oxytocin trends toward schizophrenia, bipolar disease and chronic depression. 5 Migraine sufferers with nausea and sensitivity to light and sound appear to respond to a single dose of intranasal oxytocin. 6 Side effects of oxytocin administration include increased water weight, a drop in cortisol (the stress hormone), a persistent headache (rarely) and, if one is on nitrates for angina, a drop in blood pressure. 7 A review of 38 randomized controlled trials conducted between 1990 and 2010 investigated central and adverse effects associated with intranasal oxytocin given in single doses. Side effects due to oxytocin were no different than a placebo. 8
Side effect remedies include a mild diuretic for water retention, adrenal function assessment (see April 2015 Healthy Beginnings Magazine, page 20), neurological evaluation as prolonged headaches after oxytocin administration may indicate brain stem obstruction, and decreased or discontinuing oxytocin in the case of vasodilators. It produces nitric oxide, a blood vessel dilator, with action similar to Viagra. In determining oxytocin status, we ask individuals to rate themselves on happiness, feelings for others, social interactions, love, touch and 15 other items. A physical assessment for oxytocin sufficiency includes observing muscle and skin tone, skin color, body posture and seven other parameters.

CANCER TREATMENT USING MISTLETOE EXTRACT By Robert A. Eslinger, D.O., H.M.D.
T
he white-berry mistletoe has been used as a medicinal plant since ancient times: internally for diseases of the spleen, gynecological disorders and seizures (epilepsy) and externally for wounds and ulcers. Mistletoe injections have been used in complementary cancer therapy since 1917 by the Dutch physician Dr. Ita Wegman. Over the years, as the special manufacturing process has developed further, efficiency has progressively increased. Many conventional physicians decry the lack of clinical trials for many alternative medicine treatments. To date, mistletoe therapy’s effects on various malignant diseases have been researched in over 100 clinical trials.
Sometimes, mistletoe therapy has been found to help shrink a tumor and prolong survival with very little toxicity. Mistletoe therapy is being used in hospitals in Germany and Canada. It is also being used by open-minded patients and Integrative Physicians in the US.

In fact, mistletoe is one of the most widely studied complementary and alternative medicine therapies for cancer. In certain European countries, the preparations made from European mistletoe (Viscum album) are among the most prescribed drugs offered to cancer patients. Studies show mistletoe therapy has a positive effect on the patient’s immune system and quality of life and can improve tolerance to standard therapies, such as chemotherapy, without decreasing their efficacy. Mistletoe extract acts on many levels. On the one hand, it boosts the immune system by multiplying and activating the immune cells. On the other, mistletoe extract can induce apoptosis (the process of natural cell death), which can inhibit tumor growth. Mistletoe therapy has resulted in a number of significant improvements for cancer patients: • It activates the immune system and the production of defense cells. • It stimulates apoptosis in tumor cells. • It protects the DNA of healthy cells against damage caused by chemotherapy drugs so the “side effects” are reduced. • Nausea during chemotherapy is reduced. • The immune system remains active and infections are prevented. • It stimulates the appetite. • Sleep improves. • Energy increases. • Less sensitivity to pain so fewer painkillers and sedatives are needed.

A Dream about Death and Transition Written by Andy Drymalski, EdD
O
n the night following the death of her friend, Carl, a woman had the following three-part dream: “I see Carl lying on his back. He is dead and wears a blue shirt with some sort of insignia or emblem sewn upon the chest. Over each eye is an eyepatch. In the next scene, he is in the same position. This time, however, there are no eyepatches. He is still dead but his eyes are open and they are all white — no pupil or iris is visible. In the final segment of the dream, he is in a prone position, but now his eyes are closed. I notice that there is a slight twitching of his eyelids as if he is trying to open his eyes. Some of the other people present wonder if he is becoming a zombie or robot.”
In her book, “On Dreams and Death,” deceased tries to turn away from his Jungian psychologist Marie-Louise inner life and the afterlife by opening his von Franz reflects on the deep state of eyes and returning his gaze to the outer depression that some people experience world, he would be like a zombie for he prior to their death. She states, “… it would be taking leave of his soul.

This experienced in the depression as more instinctive understanding is symbolized by or less meaningless, futile, unreal … the common tendency to close the eyes of the eyes … are to be understood as a person upon their death. symbolizing one’s view of the outer This symbolic act has relevance for the world, which must now be terminated living perhaps even more than the dead. in favor of a complete about-face Many people struggle to move on with toward the inner images.

Asparagus
Submitted by Shannon Vigil, Holistic Health Coach
pring is here! Time to allow your body to do it’s natural detoxing and shed that heavy, warm, winter layer. Nature helps us out by giving us light and fresh detoxifying foods this time of year. That’s why it’s best to eat local and seasonal, because what grows in your area is what’s best for your body during that season. Pretty cool that nature makes it easy on us to figure out “what to eat”, right?

This recipe uses asparagus, peas and mint; some of my favorite spring produce. I threw in some fresh lemon juice (a staple in my house) and raw, local honey, which can help you overcome some of those springtime allergies, too. This recipe will be one of your favorite springtime side dishes!

Initially he lost three fourths of his patients but continued on his path of prescribing and suggesting only natural remedies. In other words, he put his money where his mouth is.

Effortless Healing is not only an excellent resource for the public, but is also valuable for healthcare practitioners who want to transition to natural medicine. His book contains foundational truths that are well-researched and have already been proven effective by Dr. Mercola and other practitioners. He is an international leader in the natural health and organic movements. The information in this book and the articles on his website are up to date, interesting and able to be applied immediately in your life. Kelly Brogan, a holistic women’s health psychiatrist says, “We are not broken. We are not helplessly waiting for our next diagnosis. Quite the contrary, we have been misled about our body’s innate power to heal, and our access to vibrant health. Dr. Mercola, the world’s pioneer in self-directed wellness, provides a simple, evidence-based roadmap to empowerment in his latest book – some of which may be surprisingly unexpected!” Chapters (called Healing Principles) include how to burn fat for fuel, how to exercise less and gain more benefits, how to clean your brain with sleep, how to avoid six “Health Foods” which aren’t good for you and how to create your Effortless Healing Plan. The author explains what Effortless Healing Is and Why We Need It. The information in this book may surprise you. Regarding low fat dairy items, a big problem is the chemicals added to it, partly to give the creamy texture we’ve come to demand from yogurt. One such chemical is dimethylpolysiloxane, a chemical defoaming agent added to low fat yogurt. This chemical is banned from use in organic products. Other additives are commercial thickeners and stabilizers, including carrageenan (which is known to trigger gastrointestinal symptoms such as diarrhea and bloating), xanthan gum, modified cornstarch, pectin and gelatin as well as artificial colors and flavors. It’s heartbreaking to think of the folks who reach for yogurt and its probiotics because they’re suffering from digestive issues, then making them even worse because of the inclusion of chemical additives and preservatives.” He goes through easy ways to reduce cravings for sugar and other unhealthy foods, gives information on which foods promote human growth hormone (HGH), how to normalize hunger levels, boost your brain health and dramatically lower your risk of cardiovascular disease. There is an entire chapter on what you can do to sleep better, the dangers of certain sleep aids, as well as practical ideas that anyone can put into place immediately to increase the time that you are sleeping deeply so that you can awaken rested and refreshed. This book is a gold mine of information. Every quote and study is listed with the source, page numbers and dates published. In the back of the book, so you can do further research on anything you’re particularly interested in. Effortless Healing is available online or at your local bookstore.

here’s almost nothing worse than experiencing ear pain, itching, loss of hearing, or a sinus headache.
Ear Candling is an ancient practice, dating back to biblical times in Egypt, the Orient, as well as European cultures. This simple, gentle treatment removes wax from the ear, improving your sense of well-being, physical, mental and even spiritual. The candle is a long hollow tube made from unbleached muslin immersed in an aromatic herbal solution. After it dries, the cone is then dipped into beeswax. The cone or candle is then placed into the ear opening and the top of the cone is lit; soft warm white smoke billows down the tube into the ear and softens the wax. The flame on top of the cone creates a vacuum that pulls out built up wax, toxins, bacteria, dirt and residue from past medications. Ear Candling may also help with a dry hacking cough (a result of a sinus infection), sinus headache, tinnitus, and itchy ear. Today more people are seeking alternatives to digging in the ear with Q-tips or using a hydrogen peroxide flush to clean a blocked ear canal. Ear Candling is a relaxing, natural, non-intrusive treatment.

FLAX CRACKERS Food for Fuel
Submitted by Marie-Claire, Energy Coach For Expertsâ„¢
F
lax crackers come in all sizes and tastes. The taste of flax seeds is so neutral that you can add whatever you like. You can make them spicy, soft, savory, sweet; it all depends on what mood you are in. Make lots of them in different tastes and store them in a sealed container so you always have a nice choice for every craving. We all tend to make tasty crackers, but sometimes all you want is a very neutral one, which doesn't take over the tastes of your toppings. This golden cracker is made of golden flax crackers only and is just perfect to put loads of vegetables and a dressing or fermented cheese on top. It is a great basis to add other ingredients and experiment with. A surprisingly delicious variant comes from mixing some raw sauerkraut in the mixture. You can chop it up first or use it whole, or blend some with your flax seeds. Everything is possible and each time you eat one of those, you will be adding natural probiotics and more enzymes to your body, meaning: premium energy! The possibilities are endless and once you tried it, you will want more! Another advantage about crackers is, that they fit so well in the organization of your busy week. Being prepared is the key to creating consistent success in your health track, as health is an ongoing journey. Especially when you have a demanding job or a business, clients that you want to serve at your best, a community and loved ones whom you want to lead by example and with excellence, taking good care of yourself every day is your priority number one. The better you prepare, the easier it gets to sustain your energy, to show up, feel and look at your best. Fill up your dehydrator in the weekend: you’ll get more yields with the same effort! You can store these crackers for many weeks and when you have a few tastes in your pantry, all you need to do is grab and go. They even fit in a fancy purse to recharge during traveling, a meeting or a business lunch. Dress them up with a scoop of fresh guacamole and a tomato slice, fresh herbs. Or just take them to munch on during a concentration dip during work...
TOOLS YOU NEED • A blender or coffee grinder • A large bowl • A spatula INGREDIENTS FOR ONE TRAY • 1 C of golden flax seeds • 1 C of ground golden flax seeds • 1/2 C spring water • 1/2 tsp sea salt INSTRUCTIONS - TAKES ABOUT FIVE MINUTES • Grind 1 C of flax seeds with the salt • Add the flour to the bowl with the whole flax seeds and mix with your hands • Add the water • Mix well with a firm spatula • Take a tray and spread the mixture thinly and evenly • Dry for five hours • Flip them over on to the mesh screen and let them dry overnight or for about 8 more hours, depending on how crunchy you like them TIPS • Double or quadruple the amounts and add several tastes for different moods • Mixed with fresh tomatoes, rosemary and basil, you can taste Italy with every raw bite • You like it hot? Add jalapeño peppers • For an orient touch, play with a curry mix or with garam masala, cardamom • Store them in a dry container in a cupboard or in your pantry and they will stay crunchy for weeks • Lovely to add some crunch to a salad by breaking them up and sprinkling on top • Perfect to take with you in your purse or briefcase!

using crystals TO SUPPORT YOUR INTENTIONS
T
Written by Tania Marie, RMT, IARP, NAPW
he Earth is supporting humanity’s awakening to the re-discovery of ancient and forgotten healing arts, such as the utilization of crystals. Reverence and use of crystals goes back to the dawning of civilization. They have been connected with specific parts of the body and its organs for thousands of years. As members of the mineralogical kingdom, crystals are universal energies that allow one to contact and synthesize these individual energies for healing and integration. Each crystal contains their own “personality” and can be utilized in unique ways to facilitate healing. Crystals are nature’s gift to man and are found in all shapes, sizes, colors and composition. They each have a unique vibrational resonance due to their varying mineral contents, their inherent geometry and the color frequency they emit, making them powerful healing tools.
Crystal healing is a method of healing – crystals or gemstones are placed on or around the body, on the chakras (spiritual energy centers), used as reflexology tools to stimulate points on the feet, worn like jewelry, or can be placed in and around one’s home to enhance energy. They heal holistically on physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels, helping to direct the flow of energy to a particular part of the body, restore balance, and ultimately cleanse by releasing and clearing blocked energy. Chakras (pronounced “shock-ras”) are Sanskrit for wheels of rotating energy flows in the ethereal body. They are in related locations within the physical body along the spinal column starting from the base of the spine, up to the crown, or top of the head. There are seven major chakras within the body where the energy flows intersect. The health of an area of the physical body and the condition of its associated chakra are interdependent, so when the chakras are blocked or cleared, the body’s state will mirror that. Each chakra corresponds with different states of consciousness, developmental stages of life, archetypal elements, body functions, colors and sounds. Crystals are capable of interacting with these energy centers within the human body because they are electromagnetic conductors that work through resonance and vibrational sound. Each crystal and gemstone embodies certain energies, colors, and elements that mirror the qualities needed to facilitate clearing and raising chakra vibrations. They have been used to realign subtle energies and dissolve disease by helping to get to the root of the issue. Wearing crystals and gems used to be a royal or priestly experience, but is now something we can all receive benefit from, even by just having one in close proximity or learning to meditate with them.
As you can see, the choices are endless. It is up to the individual to ultimately heal themselves, yet there are many catalytic tools, such as crystals, that can help facilitate the healing process and help one reconnect to wholeness. Choosing a crystal to work with can be as simple as following your intuition as to which captures the essence of the energy you are drawn to, or you can reference crystal healing indexes to help you link symptoms with relevant crystals.
