“From the Skin to Within” is our tagline. What does that mean exactly? When we opened Aqua Serene Wellness in Carmel over four years ago our vision was to address issues from the inside out. Our gut, or gastrointestinal tract is responsible for nutrient absorption, breaking down the foods we eat, removing toxins and so much more. We have bacteria in our bodies that include both good and bad. In the gut the good bacteria does more than just break down the foods we eat, they also multiply so the bad bacteria doesn’t have room to grow. Maintaining our gut microbiome at a healthy balance helps more than just our digestion. Studies show the gut and brain communicate, and many of our emotions can be directly linked to the health of our gut. 2
Probiotic foods and supplements provide support of the good bacteria. What happens inside the body will also show up on the skin. Our skin is covered in bacteria as well so maintaining healthy gut microbiome is an essential part of healthy skin. It is said an inflamed gut equals inflamed skin! The combination of services we offer at Aqua Serene Wellness are key to helping our clients on their journey to optimal health and well being “From the Skin to Within” Our collaborative wellness center includes practitioners that specialize in; Colon Hydrotherapy, Holistic Esthetics, Functional Nutrition and Health Coaching, Massage Therapy, Energy Therapies and Coolsculpting®.

PRX-T33® is the revolutionary new face & body peel that will take years off – is suitable for any skin type, doesn't require downtime, and can be used in the summer. Our medical spa, Forever Young continually searches for the most innovative, effective skincare treatments used throughout Europe, and have found the PRX –T33®. This perfect formula ® is a non-injectable biorevitalizer that goes deep within the tissues without harming the epidermis (top layer of skin); It does not cause aggressive peeling of the skin, only minimal flaking. Developed in Italy by dermatologists, the bio-revitalizing treatment has been utilized by dermatologist, plastic surgeons and medical spas throughout the world, with over 2 million treatments performed. As of last August, the PRX-T33® was introduced to the United States after receiving an International patent due to its unique combination of ingredients and formulation (TCA, Kojic acid and Hydrogen Peroxide). Suitable for teens, men and women of all ages, it has shown great results when used to improve uneven skin tone, scars, acne, stretch marks, hyperpigmentation, sun damage, and
sagging, crepey skin. “Our clients love the treatment because it does not have the downtime of traditional peels; it’s virtually painless, results can be seen immediately, and it can be used anytime of the year, including summer. We call it the miracle in a bottle”. A very important FAQ about the PRX-T33® is that ANYONE can receive the treatment. Traditionally, deeper peels cannot be used for those with darker skin tones, but this is not true with the PRX-T33®. “It is exciting to be able to offer a rejuvenating skin treatment to our clients who have not been able to receive deep peels in the past due to their darker skin pigmentation”. “We are so impressed with the results of the PRX-T33®, our medical spa has become an official Midwest training center and contact for Indiana medical professionals who would like to offer this treatment. For more information, visit: PRXT33Indiana.com, or BackToHealthIndy.com
A very important FAQ...ANYONE can receive the treatment!

Increase Your Strength Quotient Women put way too much pressure on themselves to be perfect or to handle things "in just the right way." It is true that women are the relationship gender. It has been historical through time that Carol Juergensen Sheets having the capability to have children has driven women to want to take charge of other people's needs. This has understandably resulted in the female gender wanting to get it right which has increased the pressure to do it perfectly. I have seen in my clients that they become way too hard on themselves in the process which oftentimes stymies what they think about themselves and their goals. The need to be perfect can interfere or rob them of what they want to accomplish in life. We live in a society where women are expected to do things in a certain way. Women have to look perfect; they have to accomplish much, they have to be competent and they have to achieve these things while being authentic, compassionate, and empathetic. Unfortunately, these attributes can often interfere with other goals that they may need to accomplish to fulfill their life's dreams. If women are assertive they may be seen as "bitchy." If women are to be honest they may be seen as hurtful. This leaves women feeling fearful that their ability to be honest and authentic conflicts with their need to nurture and please others. We need to get comfortable with being clear and direct which allows others to know where we stand which will really enhance relationships. I always train women to believe that being assertive is the most constructive form of communication when it is done in a civil and matter of fact manner. As you can imagine, if someone is yelling or cursing
while they are asserting themselves....the communication is seen as aggressive. I encourage women to be confident and assertive, knowing that others may see this as conceited or overly ambitious in my seminars, I hear consistently that women have been taught by their parents that it is not polite to "toot your own horn." I explain to clients that there is nothing wrong with letting others know that you are capable and able to handle certain situations. Although no one likes someone who boasts, it is extremely important to own your strengths and value yourself! My shy or introverted clients often feel less than because they don't necessarily exude confidence and assuredness. They talk about feeling inferior because they don't have the social skills that make them feel noticed and valued. I explain that women need to know that oftentimes assertiveness is a skill that needs to be learned no matter what style one possesses naturally. Even a shy woman can learn to be assertive which will automatically raise her sense of confidence. I recognize that intuitively women are in a tough position because the need to be direct and honest may conflict with their need to put others at ease. Or their need to be confident may make someone else feel more inferior. Women really need to accept others for their attributes and values and not double bind themselves or others. There is nothing wrong with "knowing your greatness" as Marianne Williamson writes about in her book Return to Love. If you desire more information on how you can increase your sense of self, I would recommend Brené Brown's groundbreaking book Daring Greatly. Brené Brown discusses how difficult it can be for women to accept each other without judgment and how risking vulnerability can be the key to a women's self worth.

Calendar of Events March 10th 2020 KulturAbend Marz 2020: Indiana’s German Predecessors 7:30 -8:30 pm March
Cultural Evening in the Edelweiss Ballroom. Have you ever wondered why your ancestors came to the USA in the mid-1800s? Most of Indiana’s German immigration occurred in the decade of the 1850s, in the aftermath of the infamous “Revolutions” of 1848. During this decade, 1.5 million Germans immigrated to the USA, and many ended up in Indiana and are known as the “Forty-Eighters”. GAK member and historian David Jackson has been studying the events in Europe that led up to this mass emigration as his primary research interest for his academic career. On March 10th, he will present his seminar: “The Germany the “Forty-Eighters” Left Behind: Roots of Mid-Nineteenth Century German Emigration”.
