In Praise of Women as Natural Healers
N
ow, more than at any time before in the history of the world, women are taking on challenges that transcend our gender. Women are working in every career and at all levels. Yet, even with all of our societal progress, women are often ultimately responsible for childrearing and all of the details that accompany running a household. It is no wonder that so many women feel overwhelmed by all the claims on their time and energy! Many of my female clients come to me seeking the strength to be up for all of life’s challenges. Yet what I teach (actually, what I help my clients remember, because on a soul level we all know this to be true!) is that you already have all of the strength, answers and resources within you. The key to unleashing your innately powerful self is deep relaxation plus the loving acceptance of how wonderful you truly are. “A woman is the full circle. Within her is the power to create, nurture and transform.” – Diane Mariechild Reflexology is the perfect way for a woman to take time out to relax, to be nurtured, to experience her own sense of self-worth. I have seen reflexology help women from a wide variety of backgrounds, and with all kinds of challenges. No matter how
the challenges manifest, my clients and students agree that reflexology profoundly relaxes them, allowing their body, mind and spirit to heal faster. Reflexology also helps calm the inner chatter of the mind, so the answers to life’s challenges can “bubble up.” “Nothing is so healing as the human touch.” – Bobby Fischer Reflexology offers the unique healing gift of helping to balance a woman’s internal equilibrium. Applying gentle but firm pressure to the pressure/reflex points on your feet, hands, ears and face allows your body’s systems to return to their natural vibrancy. Some of Reflexology’s positive, powerful effects include: Restoring emotional balance – relaxing the body, mind and spirit promotes balance and a sense of renewed energy Enhancing inner and outer beauty – with increased circulation, your face and skin ‘glow’ and you look and feel younger. My clients and students marvel at how much easier life becomes when they are centered, feeling great and fully in touch with their inner resources. It is not always about being “strong” – it is often about accepting our gift as women of being natural healers by our gentle, loving presence. “The greatest gift you can give another is the purity of your attention.” – Robert Moss
By our ability to be fully present with others, we empower them to become their best. They sense our love, feel our light and can open to their own higher selves. I have seen how a career in Reflexology helps women (and men) fully develop their own intuitive healing gifts. Being able to heal your own partner and children is very empowering. Having a lucrative, rewarding career on your own schedule, while helping others find their inner power, is truly priceless! “There is no such thing as a simple act of compassion or an inconsequential act of service. Everything we do for another person has infinite consequences.” – Caroline Myss Laura Norman, M.S., LMT, world-renowned Holistic Reflexologist and author of the best-selling book, Feet First: A Guide to Foot Reflexology, offers private Reflexology and Life Wellness Coaching sessions inDelray Beach and Holistic Reflexology Certification Training Programs in Boynton Beach starting June 2nd.

Acupuncture and women’s health
T
oday’s woman is pulled in more directions than ever before. She may be a stay-at-home-mother who is constantly onthe-go. She may be a corporate mogul, overextended with meetings and deadlines. She may be an athlete, running several marathons per year. No matter what today’s woman looks like, her needs haven’t changed—she continues to have stress and emotional challenges that could greatly benefit from acupuncture. Women will experience two very important stages in their lives. One is the fertility stage, and the other will be the stage of getting older and experiencing menopause. As a result of the hormonal changes that occur during menopause, many women experience symptoms such as hot flashes - sudden feelings of heat in the upper part or all of the body. Their mood swings, up and down. They cannot fall asleep easily or wake up several times during the night. They have no energy and do not want to do anything. They can experience pain. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) treatment can help reproductive enhance-
ment, and recognize that every person and couple having difficulty conceiving needs individualized treatment. Acupuncture and herbal medicine used together should be the first line of treatment before attempting more technically advanced methods such as medications, intrauterine insemination (IUI), and In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF). A recent study published in the German medical journal Fertility and Sterility found that using acupuncture with IVF achieved a 42% clinical pregnancy rate compared to 26% in a control group that did not receive acupuncture. Menopause symptoms can be corrected or improved by Acupuncture and herbs without any side effects commonly caused by chemical drugs or Hormone Replacement Therapy ( HRT ). According to the theory behind acupuncture, hormonal system imbalances occur when the internal balance of Yin-Yang energy is disrupted. Acupuncture attempts to strengthen and rebalance the Yin-Yang equality within the body, restoring internal balance and hormone-related symptoms,
like hot flashes, insomnia, pain, fatigue and irritability. Acupuncture, the ancient TCM targets various pressure points, or energy channels along the body and has been used to heal many chronic conditions, such as pain, infertility, PMS, menopause, insomnia, anxiety, weight control, etc. TCM practitioners use herbal medicines and various mind and body practices, such as acupuncture and tai chi, to treat or prevent health problems. Dr. Hui Wei is a female licensed acupuncturist with more than 26 years’ medical experience whose practice is in Lake Worth. She is available for a complimentary consultation.

avid Scott Bartky, a certified and experienced Law of Attraction life coach, fully understands this law and works with clients to help them attract and become all they want. Even though the Law of Attraction has been around “forever,” it’s good to know that in this day and age there are wonderful processes and techniques that keep it working in our favor. Is it easy to attract what we want in all areas of life? Can we feel happier and more satisfied every day? Can we find out how to get through a difficult time in the best way possible? Can we still make certain goals a reality? The answer to all of the above is a definite “Yes!” That’s where Law of Attraction coaching comes in. It’s a powerful process where we discuss the Law of Attraction in such detail that we can’t help but take action to help ourselves. The old saying, “Once you know better, you do better,” is ever true. Through coaching, we discover how to get past blocks and negative thoughts that keep us from attracting what we want. Once that happens, the positive difference is so noticeable that we keep using what we learn from coaching because the results feel so good. Coaching sessions are held via phone for convenience. Get ready to attract all that you can imagine! For more information and to schedule a session, call 973-444-7301 or email David@LifeCoachDavid.com.
Homeopathic Point Injection Therapy: The Safe, Effective, and Natural Alternative to Toxic Injections
H
as your doctor ever suggested a steroid shot for your pain? Why inject chemicals into your body when you can experience the same pain relieving affect from all natural homeopathic injections? Homeopathic injections are mainly used for pain and releasing of toxins from the body. Acupuncture stimulates your bodies natural healing response and point injection therapy injects natural solutions into the body, therefore, when combined with acupuncture, the healing experience from the injections may be doubled. Four main types of homeopathic injections are used at Meng’s Acupuncture Medical Center. Traumeel is a COX-1 inhibitor, anti-inflammatory and antiviral. Traumeel stops pain, activates the immune system, assists wound healing, stops bleeding, swelling, and detoxifies on the cellular level. Zeel is a COX-2 inhibitor that assists with chronic inflammation associated with degenerative arthritis, and treats hot painful swollen joints by detoxifying the tissues. Spascupreel assists with muscle spasms, cramping of the stomach, uterus, intestines, and gallbladder. Spascupreel also helps decrease fibromyalgia pain and menstrual pain. Lymphomyosot promotes metabolic processes, activates lymph release, and eliminates toxins from the inter cellular space. It is important to receive these injections from a licensed acupuncturist who has the training and certificate for point injection therapy. Dr. Meng utilizes specific acupuncture points on the body so you will receive the maximum affect from these injections. Dr. Meng has experience with injection therapy since 1996 where she practiced in China and has been practicing point injection therapy in the US since 2007.

Mark returns by popular demand Friday and Saturday June1st and 2nd, at 7:30 p.m., he will connect random audience members with loved ones in spirit at the United Metaphysical Church of the Palm Beaches 917 North Dixie Hwy., Lake Worth, FL. He is the author of the award winning, critically acclaimed best-sellers Never Letting Go and Pulitzer submitted Evidence of Eternity. His books are in several languages and recommended by hospices and grief counselors worldwide. They’re available at all fine bookstores including the United Metaphysical Church of the Palm Beaches bookstore. Mark Anthony is a world-renowned fourth generation psychic medium who communicates with spirits. His family’s psychic legacy has been documented to the early 1900s on both sides of his family. His psychic great-grandmother was featured in the “Italian-Americans” on PBS. Mark is an Oxford educated attorney licensed to practice law in Florida, Washington D.C. and before the United States Supreme Court.

bridges the gap between the spiritual and the scientific. He explains the existence of the afterlife and the reality of spirit communication based on quantum physics. Currently on a nationwide tour, he uses his natural abilities as a medium to connect random audience members with loved ones in spirit. Far from a dry lecture or a dull event! Mark is a spellbinding speaker who employs humor to “raise the vibration” of the audience. This is one of the reasons he is a headline speaker at conventions, expos and spiritual organizations such as the Edgar Cayce A.R.E., IANDS (International Association of Near Death Studies), Afterlife Research Education Institute and the Sedona Spirit Symposium and universities including Brown, Columbia, Harvard and Yale. On a personal level, Anthony demonstrates how loved ones in spirit often try to get a message across from the other side. “When you sense the presence of a deceased loved one, this is a contact experience, which is real. Many people have them. Spirit contact can be very subtle and can be overlooked. Although I can help individuals to make a connection with a loved one who has crossed over, spirit contact will not take away the pain of what happened. For some of the thousands of individuals I have discerned for, it has been an important step in the healing process.” For an evening of spirit contact and edu-tainment for your soul, get tickets now!” United Metaphysical Church of the Palm Beaches Fri.

LIFE CHANGING QI VIBRATION WELLNESS SESSIONS June 9 and 23, 2018 Understanding your Internal Life Force ‘Qi’ An Introduction to LAMAS Qi Gong
E
veryone is born with ‘Qi’. Qi is your life force that determines your lifespan and quality of health. It is important to keep your Qi strong to help combat stress occurring in our daily activities. Enhancement of your Qi is achieved with proper breathing techniques, vibratory meditation and life-style changes. It is the Cultivation of Qi that enables one to combat the ill effects of stress. STRESS IS THE GENESIS OF ALL DISEASE. In today’s world there are many experiences that can make us feel frustrated, aggravated, depressed, insecure – to name a few. All of these emotions create stress in our bodies. When stress attacks, it weakens the body’s defense system, the immune system and lowers one’s vibration. When this happens, some people will try to self-medicate or take prescribed medication to alleviate the situation or symptoms, which eventually can lead to deeper problems, mental or physical imbalance or drug addiction. Qi Gong is an ancient Chinese healing modality which focuses on the art and science of cultivating and manipulating one’s inner vital life force (Qi), for self healing and longevity of life. The movement of Qi Gong is a powerful energy healing system that connects the mind, body and spirit. Qi Gong has been documented in ancient times for over 5,000 years. 14
Palm Beach Edition
There are thousands of forms of Qi Gong practiced in the world today. The continued practice of Qi Gong focuses on the balancing and strengthening of Qi in the human body. Qi Gong promotes the free flow of energy throughout the body, breaking down energy blockages within the meridians. This helps to keep the body stronger and more resilient. The distinction between LAMAS Qi Gong versus other Qi Gong modalities is that it focuses on extreme health and vitality. LAMAS Qi Gong teaches Disciplinary Controlled Respiratory Movement (DCRM) in a natural way to manage and eliminate the stressers in our body. Daily practice of LAMAS Qi Gong provides tremendous benefits including releasing stress and tension, increasing one’s vibrational life force and clearing of the mind. A feeling of overall peace and balance results in achieving the connection of mind, body and spirit for a stronger and healthier core. LAMAS Qi Gong builds on the elements of life all working together as one. Elements not limited to air, food, water and environmental space contributes to a person’s quality of life and enhancement of Qi within the body. LAMAS Qi Gong was brought to the Western world through its lineage holder Grandmaster Sikung Lowe (LoLo). Grandmaster Lowe is a gifted Empath and Qi Healer who can trace his family history back over 3,000 years to the Han Dynasty. His “passion is to bring awareness to as many as possible, this powerful Chinese Healing Art of LAMAS Qi Gong”. LAMAS Qi Gong (or ‘DaoYin’ Qi Gong) has been passed down through his family in its pure and esoteric form. As a result of keeping the movements of LAMAS Qi Gong in its complete and pure form, it is the strongest and fastest way to achieve and maintain Qi in significant levels within the body. We are extremely grateful to be in the presence of LAMAS Qi Gong Grandmaster Lowe who speaks excellent English, can

communicate with clear and understandable words. He has a “Vibrational” energy that is so strong it can help to awaken the mind, motivate the soul and relieve the tired and restless body. Learning and practicing LAMAS Qi Gong will be an energetic and life changing experience. On June 9 and June 23, 2018 Grandmaster Lowe will be conducting 6 free group healing sessions offered at the Delray Beach Public Library in cooperation with GHVA (Global Health Visionary Alternatives, Inc.), a non-profit 501(c)3.

Doug Tallamy is currently professor and chair of the department of entomology and wildlife ecology at the University of Delaware in Newark, Delaware, where he has taught insect taxonomy, behavioral ecology, and other subjects. Chief among his research goals is to better understand the many ways insects interact with plants and how such interactions determine the diversity of animal communities. Because our yards and gardens are essential parts of the terrestrial ecosystems that sustain humans and the life around us, it is essential that we keep them in working order. Tallamy will discuss the important ecological roles of the plants in our landscapes, emphasize the ecological, educational, physical, and emotional benefits of designing landscapes with these roles in mind, and explore the consequences of failing to do so. Managing landscapes in this crowded world carries both moral and ecological responsibilities that we can no longer ignore. One tiny change can save the ecosystem!

rtist Craig McInnis completed a 75’ long by 12’ high mural along the west facing wall of Leeward Luxury, a boutique staffing firm located at 636 E. Ocean Ave. in downtown Boynton Beach. The painted mural, titled ‘Set Free,’ is a collaboration designed between the artist and property/business owner JJ McDonough to depict a combination of beauty and inner peace. McDonough commissioned the mural because he supports public art and thinks it is very important for a community to become engaged with it. “Public art is essential in captivating the true energy of a community,” he stated. “Without public art, a city, town or village becomes stale and ultimately undesirable. Every modern and successful city in the world displays amazing art to enhance the heart and soul of its residents.” “The hands releasing the bird is where the mural’s title comes from,” according to McInnis, who has painted other murals in the area including one for the Boynton Beach Theater and another for the Boynton Beach Arts District. He believes that “for one to be in touch with their spiritual nature setting free of things, you don’t need negative emotions.” While this mural was not part of Boynton Beach’s Art in Public Places program, it adds to the collection of public art on display in the city. For more information about the city’s public art, follow Boynton Beach Art in Public Places on Facebook @BoyntonBeachArtinPublicPlaces. To view more of McInnis’s work, visit craigmcinnis.com.

NATURES FLU SHOT...ELDERBERRY THE MOST ANTI-VIRAL FRUIT KNOWN TO MAN @agapehealingarts
I
f you want to protect yourself against influenza, elderberry extract is what you really need. At this time of year, seasonal flu strikes down many of us, and not to mention other deadly strains of influenza that in more recent times have become worrying pandemics. Elberberry extract is an important weapon to help fight these viruses and is a highly effective natural remedy with antiviral properties, especially against different strains of influenza virus. It’s main chemical component, Sambucol, was shown to be effective in vitro against 10 strains of influenza virus. In a double-blind, placebocontrolled, randomized study, Sambucol reduced the duration of flu symptoms to 3-4 days. Elderberry has been known to have been used as far back as 400BC, when Hippocrates referred to the elderberry bush as his “medicine chest”, and it has been referenced in ancient medicinal texts for centuries. #elderberrysyrup #agapehealingarts #agape #lovewins #naturalhealing #natural #remedy Agape, Health & Harmony, Dr. Bella Lauren Cini DOM, LM LMT Doctor Oriental Medicine, Licensed Midwife, Licensed Massage Therapist, dōTERRA Wellness Advocate #856809 & Owner of Agape Healing Arts Health & Wellness Center 385 Tequesta Drive Suite 4/5 Tequesta FL 33469 Office: 561-762-4273 (AGAPE) Cell: 561-596-0072 www.AgapeHealingArts.com

Eye Contact Syncs Baby and Adult Brainwaves
New guidelines that change the criteria for healthy blood pressure mean that nearly half of U.S. adults are now considered to have high blood pressure. The American College of Cardiology and the American Heart Association have redefined the condition as being 130/80 instead of 140/90, a change considered by critics as overly beneficial to pharmaceutical companies. This criteria includes 80 percent of people over 65, triples the diagnosis for men under 45 and doubles it for women younger than 45. The revised guidelines encourage adopting lifestyle strategies in early stages of rising blood pressure like exercise, diet, weight loss and smoking cessation. Evidencebased alternative methods noted in a Canadian study include coenzyme Q10, dark chocolate, qigong, slow breathing, Transcendental Meditation and vitamin D. 18

In a survey of 171 midlife American women, more than 80 percent reported using complementary and alternative medicine, Albert Einstein College of Medicine researchers discovered. The most common choice was herbal teas, followed by women’s vitamins, flaxseed, glucosamine and soy supplements. Only 34 percent of the non-Hispanic white women and 14 percent of the Hispanic women discussed it with their doctors.

U.S. Midlife Women Choosing Natural Health Care
Young women process oxygen about 30 percent faster and more efficiently than men when they begin exercising, according to a new study from Canada’s University of Waterloo. The ability to extract oxygen from the blood is an important fitness marker, which the researchers tested by having 18 young men and women exercise on treadmills. The women’s superior results indicate they are naturally less prone to muscle fatigue and poor performance. “The findings are contrary to the popular assumption that men’s bodies are more naturally athletic,” observes lead author Thomas Beltrame, Ph.D. Previous research had found that older men and male children tend to have faster oxygen uptake than women.

When an adult looks into the eyes of a baby, a synchronization of brain waves occurs that could indicate an intention to communicate, concludes a Cambridge University study of 36 infants. This coordinating supports the baby’s early learning and communication skills, according to the researchers. The effect, which researchers measured via electroencephalogram (EEG)-wired skullcaps, was strongest with eye-to-eye contact and weaker when the adult’s head was turned away. The more vocalizations— little sounds—the baby made, the greater their brainwaves synchronized with the adult.

Girls born to 754 Swedish mothers that used acetaminophen during pregnancy showed less ability in acquiring early language skills at 30 months of age, report Mount Sinai Health System study researchers. If the mothers took acetaminophen more than six times in early pregnancy, their daughters (but not their sons) were nearly six times more likely to have language delays than girls born to mothers that didn’t take the drug. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that 65 percent of pregnant women in this country use acetaminophen, which is marketed for pain and fever relief in Tylenol and Exedrin, and included in many over-the-counter formulations such as NyQuil and Robitussin.

Seniors Eating Mediterranean Diet Retain Independence Seniors that ate a Mediterranean diet high in vegetables, fruit, whole grains, nuts and legumes were able to live independently longer, had fewer falls and fractures, and were less frail, according to recent research. In a study published in the Journal of the American Geriatric Society, University College London researchers analyzed the eating habits and health data of 5,789 participants in studies in France, Spain, Italy and China. “People that followed the Mediterranean diet the most were overall less than half as likely to become frail over a nearly four-year period compared with those that followed it the least,” says lead author Katy Walters, Ph.D. The researchers also noted that the plant-based diet may help older people maintain muscle strength, activity, weight and energy levels.

A new study published in the journal Ecosphere confirms that in urban streams, persistent pharmaceutical pollution can cause aquatic microbial communities to become resistant to drugs. Researchers evaluated the presence of pharmaceuticals, including painkillers, stimulants, antihistamines and antibiotics, in four streams in Baltimore, Maryland. Then they measured the microbial response to drug exposure. Selected study sites represented a gradient of development from suburban to urban. Emma Rosi, an aquatic ecologist at the Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies and lead author on the study, explains, “Wastewater treatment facilities are not equipped to remove many pharmaceutical compounds. We were interested in how stream microorganisms, which perform key ecosystem services like removing nutrients and breaking down leaf litter, respond to pharmaceutical pollution. When we expose streams to pharmaceutical pollution, we are unwittingly altering their microbial communities, yet little is known about what this means for ecological function and water quality.”

Recycled Plastic Transforms into Prosthetics The emerging technology of three-dimensional (3-D) printing can benefit the world in many ways. Re:Purpose for Good, in Australia, creates robotically 3-D printed prosthetic devices from recycled plastic and e-waste. It’s difficult to customize prosthetics, so more invasive surgery is often needed to make standard sizes fit the patient. Other companies produce 3-D printed prosthetic hands and arms, but Re:Purpose for Good customizes both hands and feet at a much lower cost. The company’s robotics and prosthetics engineer Gerardo Montoya, who had been working on 3-D printing prosthetics for children in Mexico, merged the idea with a desire to do something about the 8 million tons of plastic entering the oceans. Along with plastic waste, they also use e-waste such as discarded smartphones that have all the circuitry and microprocessors needed for advanced features. The company even plans to teach their prosthetic-making process to children as part of their science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (STEAM) curriculum, so they can learn 3-D printing skills. They’re making it open source so more people can get involved without patent restrictions.

The Black Mamba Anti-Poaching Unit aims not only to protect rhinoceroses in South Africa by patrolling the Balule Nature Reserve, in Greater Kruger National Park, but to also be a role model in their communities. It’s the first majority-female, anti-poaching unit in the country. Founded in 2013 by Transfrontier Africa NPC to protect the Olifants West Region of Balule, the Black Mambas were invited within a year to expand into other regions, and now protect all boundaries of the reserve. These 32 young women and two men want their communities to understand that the benefits are greater through rhino conservation rather than poaching, as they address the local social and moral decay that results from poaching. Their concern is also for their children’s sake because the sham economy has corrupted morals and brought narcotics into their communities. To make a donation, visit BlackMambas.org. 20

Africans Unite to Save Rhinos
The British supermarket chain Iceland is planning to eliminate or drastically reduce plastic packaging for more than 1,000 of its house-label products by the end of 2023, switching to paperbased trays instead. Nigel Broadhurst, joint managing director of Iceland, explains that the typical ready meal was packaged in a particularly bad way. “It is currently in a black plastic tray. That black plastic is the worst possible option in terms of toxins going into the ground and the ability to recycle that product.” He also notes that instead of the usual plastic bag, grocers could put netting around a bunch of apples the same as with oranges. Iceland’s research found that 80 percent of shoppers would endorse a supermarket’s move to go plastic-free.
Love Rocks
Inspiring Messages that Surprise
Artistically decorated rocks featuring inspirational messages are turning up in Mobile, Alabama, and along the Gulf of Mexico shoreline as part of The Kindness Rocks Project (TheKindnessRocksProject. com). Anyone can paint rocks and “plant” them for someone else to discover. Likewise, everyone is invited to hunt for kindness rocks. Those that find a rock are free to take it, plant it somewhere else or leave it for someone else to find. The grassroots movement was created to spread inspiration and motivation for unsuspecting recipients through the random placement of the rocks in public spaces. The goal is to encourage others to find creative ways to reach out and brighten someone else’s day unexpectedly, whether it’s through kindness rocks, love notes or random acts of generosity.
Temporary Protection
Locals Prevail Against Bristol Bay Mine
Alaskan mining critics cheered the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency decision to maintain an existing policy not to permit the Northern Dynasty Minerals’ Pebble copper and gold mine in Bristol Bay. They maintain that the project’s toxic byproducts would threaten fisheries and other natural resources. Alannah Hurley, with United Tribes of Bristol Bay, a group opposing the mine, has said that members of the tribes she represents are willing to lie down in front of bulldozers to protect the waters. She notes, “Ideally, we would like these [protections] finalized, and the battle to protect Bristol Bay from the Pebble Mine and mines like Pebble is far from over. But the fact that these protections remain in place and can be used within the process is a very positive step in the effort to protect the Bristol Bay watershed for generations to come.”

All That Glitters Sparkly Microbeads Face Ban
Scientists have called for glitter to be prohibited due to the threat it poses to wildlife. The glistening, decorative, plastic microbead powder may seem harmless, but environmental researchers report it’s a dangerous pollutant, particularly in oceans. Trisia Farrelly, Ph.D., of New Zealand’s Massey University, notes, “Their diminutive size and sparkling appearance make them appealing to animals, which will eat them.” Seven U.S. states now restrict the use and sale of products with microbeads; California was the first in 2015. The British government will ban rinse-off microbeads—plastics of less than one millimeter in length— found in exfoliating scrubs, shower gels, toothpaste and even on greeting cards. Plastics are found in a third of all fish caught in Great Britain, according to a study by Richard Thompson, Ph.D., professor of marine biology at Plymouth University. He says of shower gel with glitter particles, “That stuff is going to escape down the plughole and potentially enter the environment.” May 2018

Recycling IQ
Take a Quiz to Help the Planet
As ambitious folks undertake spring cleaning, questions arise about what is and isn’t recyclable, as well as how to do the right thing on an ongoing basis. The world can benefit from our efforts: The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency reports that every ton of recycled paper saves the energy equivalent of 322 gallons of gasoline, while a ton of aluminum cans saves 21 barrels of oil. Putting the wrong items into a recycle bin demands extra time and effort at local facilities. We can test our knowledge by taking this short true or false quiz. Please note that local standards may vary, so check for specifics. 1. Both paper and plastic bags are recyclable. 2. All paper in the form of phone books, newspapers, magazines, junk mail, office paper and paperboard, is recyclable. 3. Cardboard pizza boxes can be recycled despite absorption of grease and food residue. 4. Aluminum, steel and tin-plated cans can all go in the recycling bin. 5. Some of these items are recyclable: Styrofoam food containers and cups, used paint cans, sewing needles, non-empty aerosol cans, garden hoses
and clothing.
6. Recycling broken glass is the same as intact glass. 7. It’s easy to recycle a broken or outmoded cell phone or laptop computer. 8. It’s vital to recycle office and other paper.
Answers: 1. False; generally, only paper bags are recyclable unless a grocer or big-box retailer has its own program for plastic bags. 2. True 3. False 4. True, if free of harmful chemical residue. 5. False; generally, none are recyclable. Notable exceptions for foam are detailed at FoamFacts.com/recycling; shipping storefronts may accept foam packing peanuts. 6. False; put broken light bulbs and other shattered glass in the trash; bring all fluorescent bulbs to a local building supply store. 7. True; many consumer electronics retailers and manufacturers, states and charities offer options to recycle or donate devices. Visit RecyclingForCharities. com, Call2Recycle.org, Earth911.com or EcyclingCentral.com. 8. True; 30 percent of landfill trash generated annually is paper, outweighed only by plastic and food waste. 22

HEALING THE HARD STUFF Natural Approaches Resolve Major Illnesses
Rob Wergin, an experienced energy medicine practitioner, speaks from experience regarding clients that consult him for lifethreatening diagnoses. “When I see them, they’re desperate and have exhausted all conventional methods. I’m their last-ditch effort,” remarks Wergin. The most frequent reason he hears is, “My family, friends and doctor told me not to waste my money on charlatans.” “People find it challenging to put faith in natural methods and are nervous about going against a doctor’s advice until they feel or see positive results; even these may not provide sufficient motivation to continue with alternative treatments,” he says. “I believe this is the result of the influence of pharmaceutical ads promising results, the medical community’s belief in proof solely through clinical trials, websites like Quackwatch.com and wellmeaning friends insisting that the conventional route is the only way to go. It’s sad to see the gravity of these influences pulling clients back into solely believing in the Western model of medicine,” says Wergin. Ann Lee, a doctor of naturopathy, acupuncturist and founder of the Health for Life Clinic, Inc., in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, notes, “This mindset continues to get reinforced by insurance companies that do not cover alternatives. Paying out of pocket for medical expenses also influences a patient’s choices.” Kelly Noonan-Gores and Adam Schomer, director and producer, respectively, of the documentary film HEAL, suggest that unconscious conditioning plays the biggest role in an individual’s choices. “We are deeply conditioned to view medical specialists and prestigious medical institutions as the ones with all the answers.

lthough natural health enthusiasts may recognize alternative healing modalities as a preferred approach to treatment, in the face of major health issues, even they tend to join the crowd that’s turning first to conventional medicine. Thus, many gentler modalities described in The Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine, co-authored by doctors of naturopathy Michael T. Murray and Joseph Pizzorno, remain largely untapped resources. Ignored because they are unsupported by traditional science-based medicine, holistic measures such as acupuncture, energy medicine, essential oils, herbs, detoxification, healthpromoting diets, homeopathy, prayer and meditation, supplementation, yoga, massage and naturopathy are sacrificed in favor of often painful medical procedures and prescription drugs which can’t claim to permanently cure anything and can have many harmful side effects. 24

Lack of Awareness
“A patient that dabbles in holistic medicine for minor health issues such as indigestion, headache or insomnia often turns to conventional methods after receiving a serious diagnosis such as diabetes, heart disease or cancer because they are scared,” observes holistic physician Dr. Wendy Warner, medical director of Medicine in Balance, in Langhorne, Pennsylvania. The co-author of Boosting Your Immunity for Dummies suggests that relatively few people turn to natural solutions for both preventive and therapeutic measures because they’re unaware they exist. Integrative oncologists and endocrinologists that are aware of the benefits of natural complementary methods are scarce. Relatively few conventional doctors are educated in functional medicine. “Yet complementary modalities such as acupuncture, massage and some essential oils can support the immune system and help an individual deal with stress experienced from coping with their illness,” says Warner.

they do and sometimes they don’t,” says Noonan-Gores, who intends to have her film awaken viewers to the possibilities of alternative paths of healing. As just one other example noted in the film, thousands have used the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), tapping on their body to help release the trauma and stress often associated with illness.
“Before, I wasn’t familiar with EFT, which I continue to use and benefit from. However, despite everything I’ve learned, I can’t give up on all Western medicine, put my faith in alternatives and let my intuition and faith guide me to healing. It’s easier to be skeptical than to have faith,” Lee says.
FloridaOilsRN.com that reaches hundreds of individuals worldwide. She advises, “Reach out to people that you see are having positive results with a different healing system than yours. Ask them to show, help and teach you. I’ve seen many people restored to health by using methods that science is only beginning to understand.”
Resistance to Change
Quiet Role Models
Sheila Tucker, a resident of Navarre, Florida, has been a registered nurse for 20 years, practicing in hospital settings such as critical care, emergency and administration. “I know and understand doctors, surgeries and pharmaceutical treatments and hospitals,” says Tucker, who recalls that throughout her life she was taught to believe in a system that suddenly stopped working for her. “In 2014, I was dying from a rare autoimmune condition, requiring full-time care, and planning my funeral. Doctors had tried everything, yet my health continued to decline. When I saw a friend’s Facebook posts about her use of essential oils, I was curious, but reluctant to reach out, and didn’t want anyone to know that I called her for advice,” recalls Tucker. “Shortly after my friend arrived with her oils, my husband came home with our daughter, who had strep throat and a fever. She made us promise to use selected oils through the night and prayed with us.” Tucker attributes the miracle of her daughter’s turnaround the next morning to shifting her paradigm and opening her up to believing in the healing power of essential oils. Thanks to her friend and role model, Tucker learned how to use therapeuticgrade oils, supplements and a healthy diet to cleanse her body of the heavy toxic load accumulated from several years of expensive drug treatments. Today, she is a healthy and enthusiastic advocate, and her personal results opened the eyes of her physician to the point where she also shifted her own philosophy of healing. Tucker now offers educational classes in her office and online through her website
“Outside of any dominant paradigm, it’s easier to cast suspicion than to make curious inquiry and, over time, working within a dominant worldview creates polarity, the antithesis of ‘wholism’. An inclusive approach integrates all medical and complementary approaches, as well as interaction with the natural world,” says Patrick Hanaway, a family physician and founder of Family to Family Medicine, in Asheville, North Carolina. Hanaway, the former director of medical education for the Institute for Functional Medicine and the first medical director at the Cleveland Clinic Center for Functional Medicine, explains, “Doctors have a rigorous job filled with responsibility. Change is difficult and investigating vastly different ways of practicing medicine requires a degree of curiosity and openness. I am heartened by thought leaders and heads of top medical schools who are presently opening up to functional medicine, natural medicine and complementary approaches.” “The paradigm shift we are ushering in has been 50 years in the making,” assesses Hanaway. “Some medical professionals are immersed in a polar view of right and wrong, offering personal attacks and disparaging comments to maintain control of the dialogue. This is not appreciated by patients who look to the doctor as a teacher—the Latin docere means to teach. “The movement to change medicine and the cultural paradigm of healing is a marathon, not a sprint, and those of us involved are prepared to stay the course.”
“The conventional medical community wants to maintain the model in which they have heavily invested centuries of time, energy and money. Patients that investigate integrative and complementary medicine may resist hearing that in order to get well, they might need to change their worldview and lifestyle, take a leave of absence from their job, develop a spiritual practice, exercise or maybe even leave a toxic relationship,” says Schomer. “Conventional medicine says take this pill and keep living your life the same way,” says Schomer. “We are not demonizing doctors, pharmaceuticals or the medical system. We simply believe that individuals are more empowered to heal when they take control of their health.” Eva Lee, a resident of Los Angeles featured in the documentary, suffers from a rare and unpredictable form of blistering skin inflammation. “I’ve tested negative for faulty genes and all sorts of rare viruses and bacteria, which helped point me towards holistic methods. So far, following the directives of Dr. Mark Emerson, a chiropractor specializing in nutrition, in Maui, Hawaii, who I met while filming, has helped my body become healthier and deal with inflammation levels that rapidly reduced as soon as I detoxed and eliminated meat and dairy from my diet,” says Lee. Still, it’s hard for her to accept that her condition could be due to the type of stress and suppressed emotions that Anthony William explores in his book Medical Medium: Secrets Behind Chronic and Mystery Illness and How to Finally Heal.

The mind is conditioned to go to the worst-case scenario; we can instead retrain it to focus on the best-case scenario, and what we want to happen, increasing the likelihood it will occur.
What role do faith and belief systems play in the healing journey? It all comes down to what we believe. If you believe in and expect an effect, like what we see with a placebo, the brain will create and release natural chemicals that might be prompted by a targeted drug. Believing you are a victim of genes and circumstance induces stress, whereas having faith in a loving universe produces greater ease.
How do emotions influence health and healing? Gregg Braden and Joe Dispenza, interviewed in HEAL, discuss how rage, jealousy, trauma and fear put the body in a stress response and create inflammation and other detrimental effects. But love, kindness, joy, gratitude and compassion release healing hormones and neurochemicals like oxytocin, serotonin and dopamine. It’s empowering to know that when negative emotions arise, you can become aware of and release them, then pivot to focus on gratitude or do something that cultivates joy. It’s a moment-by-moment choice.
Healthy people require a healthy planet; how can we apply these same principles to bring our world back into balance? The more conscious we become, the more we treat ourselves, others and our Earth with compassion. As more people awaken and demand a different response, the paradigm will shift. Health care will have to change as we apply the power in our hearts and minds. Our bodies are a microcosm of the universe; the planet can heal itself and thrive as we remove the toxins and become fully aware of what we are putting in the air, water and soil.

Functional Medicine Leads the Way by Linda Sechrist

Palm Beach Edition
Historical Overview
New Standard of Care
During the last 25 years, a less drug-based grassroots model for dealing with chronic illnesses in the U.S. has emerged. First labeled holistic, the movement gained momentum as alternative approaches morphed into being considered complementary to conventional medicine, warranting studies by the National Institutes of Health. Responding to public interest, an integrative model of care that focuses on the whole person has taken root in medical institutions such as the Cleveland Clinic, in Ohio. The latest evolution to a systemsoriented, patient-focused clinical model of functional medicine, which seeks to address causes of illness, rather than simply treat symptoms, has been garnering increasing interest by the public and pioneering medical professionals. It’s now maturing into personalized functional medicine.
One of the best-prepared, traditionally trained medical professionals in explaining this approach is Jeffrey S. Bland, Ph.D., recognized as the father of functional medicine, and author of The Disease Delusion: Conquering the Causes of Chronic Illness for a Healthier, Longer and Happier Life. He cofounded, with his wife, Susan, the Institute for Functional Medicine, in Washington, which provides a system geared to understanding the complexity of chronic illness and design individualized programs for more effective healing. “Medical science didn’t have the advanced technology 25 years ago to perform the research that now helps us better understand the complexity of chronic illness, as well as our present ecological view of the body. Today we’re examining how all the networks of our biology intersect in a dynamic process that creates health when in

balance or disease when out of balance,” attests Bland, whose career has focused on searching for a unifying principle behind all healing that can be used to discern the best possible therapy for specific individuals. Incorporating what he learned from Linus Pauling, Ph.D., twotime Nobel Prize laureate, and Lee Hood, M.D., Ph.D., as well as systems biology and practicing lifestyle medicine, Bland founded the nonprofit Personalized Lifestyle Medicine Institute (PLMInstitute. org) in 2012. Seeking to transform the entire medical approach to chronic illness, the Seattle-based organization is a virtual and onsite hub for health professionals, researchers, educators and the public to share ideas and converse about how personalized functional medicine can be delivered to everyone as an improved standard of care.
Role of Genetics The National Human Genome Research Institute, in Bethesda, Maryland, maintains that an evolved approach to medicine starts with using an individual’s genetic profile to determine the best path to preventing, diagnosing and treating diseases. By 2003, scientists had delivered the first essentially complete sequence and map of all the genes in the human body. Three decades ago, the medical fraternity had few reliable explanations for the origins of chronic health issues. Today, accepted factors include predispositions for a specific disease related to an individual’s genome, along with contemporary epigenetic influences such as nutrition, environment and lifestyle. None of these elements, however, necessarily define our destiny. “This genomic personalized medicine approach is creating friends among all healing arts practitioners because it facilitates our using information to design a less-toxic environment, lifestyle, diet and treatment to meet an individual’s specific needs and particular circumstances that led to a disease,” says Bland. “Diseases are only names assigned to a collection of symptoms,” says Bland. “They don’t indicate how the individual became afflicted. If 10 patients with Type 2 diabetes each had epigenetic variations that triggered getting the condition, it would be unwise to treat them all the same; it’s far better to treat those factors that specifically led to the disease.” Addressing the concern that genetic test results might be used to deny someone health insurance, Bland notes, “This is a significant misunderstanding about genetic testing. Our genes don’t tell us how we are going to die. They tell us how we should live. Understanding how our genes can help us live to 100 is a model of enlightenment. Those that practice this systems biology approach are counting on functional personalized medicine becoming the updated standard of care.” Physicians often offer genetic testing services. At-home DNA testing can be done using a saliva collection kit mailed to a laboratory, offering both ancestry and health information that must be interpreted by an informed professional.

ransitioning through menopause and the years of perimenopausal hormone fluctuation leading up to the finale can be physically and emotionally challenging for many women. Consistently following a healthy diet and positive lifestyle are important, and health researchers, doctors and midlife women can attest to the multidimensional benefits of exercise. Perks may include reduction of menopausal discomfort, better brain function, stronger bones and reversal of estrogen dominance syndrome that can set the stage for fibroids, cystic breasts, cancer, migraines and weight gain.
Get Moving
Studies of 3,500 women in South and Central America have shown that a more active life reduces hot flashes and night sweats. The results, published in Menopause, the journal of the North American Menopause Society, reveal that sedentary individuals often experience increased intensity of related symptoms like insomnia and irritability. Aerobic exercise such as regular walking, hiking, swimming or biking might also help the brain produce neurochemicals that are compromised when estrogen levels drop. Sue Markovitch, author and owner of Clear Rock Fitness, in Columbus, Ohio, recommends aerobic exercise. “I believe our bodies were made to move. One of the amazing gifts of fitness is it’s truly never too late. When we incorporate daily movement in our lives, all the other systems in the body will work more according to plan. Simply taking a daily walk helps balance brain chemistry,” says Markovitch, who specializes in improving fitness levels for women over 40. “Walking is fitness magic, whether it’s on a treadmill, outside or in the pool. Get your heart rate into an aerobic zone, preferably for 30 to

45 minutes. I’ve heard testimony after testimony of improved sleep, less back or joint pain and better mood.” She also suggests adding a few weekly sessions of resistance training to daily walks. Most health professionals agree that balance is the key. Jeanne D. Andrus, a menopause expert and author of I Just Want to Be ME Again, in Covington, Louisiana, recommends cardio, resistance training and exercise that increases flexibility and core strength. “For a beginner, this may include two to four days of walking, one to three days of strength training and one to three days of yoga or Pilates, with the goal being three and a half hours of activity per week.” Of course, all of these need to be at appropriate levels for the woman’s condition and goals,” advises Andrus. According to studies led by Helen Jones, Ph.D., from the Research Institute for Sport and Exercise Sciences at Liverpool John Moores University, UK, three, 30-to-45-minute aerobic sessions a week reduced hot flashes and yielded the most significant results.
Go Easy
While some conventional approaches suggest vigorous exercise, many holistic professionals caution against extremes. “It’s important to individualize, and in my ongoing research it’s clear that the high-intensity strength and sculpting approach so often promoted and perceived as necessary to maintain shape, weight and health is a myth,” says Dr. Eden Fromberg, an obstetrician, gynecologist and founder of Holistic Gynecology New York, in Manhattan. Instead, Fromberg recommends an integrated approach to exercise that supports connective tissue and joints. While some forms of exercise including yoga are perceived as gentler than others, she warns against an all-or-nothing strategy, noting, “Intense, deep stretching and joint-straining may cause injury more easily during hormonal transition.” Andrus concurs, “If high cortisol levels are involved and accompanied by insomnia, stress placed on the body by rigorous exercise will increase these levels and actually lower available energy.” She also advises adopting a non-aggressive approach for osteoporosis. “Weight-bearing exercise is a must, but if bone loss is already present, start much more gradually to ensure that bones are protected.”
Lighten Up
Exercise can be more enjoyable than doing chores. Recreational activities such as dancing, biking or hopping on the swings at the playground are fun ways to do something good for both body and spirit. Menopause can be a time for personal expansion and an invitation for self-care that might have been neglected or postponed. Fromberg believes we can all revitalize our resources at any stage of life, and the years surrounding menopause call for us to tune into ourselves even more. “What seems like a disruption is an opportunity to listen deeply and reimagine and reorganize one’s life on physical, emotional and spiritual levels.” Marlaina Donato is a freelance writer, author and multimedia artist.

hile not essential to every dish or meal, condiments provide extra flavoring, final flourishes and added enjoyment to any dish. Such meal accompaniments range from vinegars to spreads and sauces, finishing spice mixtures and natural salts. America’s previous king of condiments was ketchup. Today, according to a 2017 poll from TheDailyMeal.com, it stands behind mayonnaise and mustard with soy and hot sauce rounding out the top five (generic product ranking at Tinyurl.com/Top20Condiments). We often take familiar condiments for granted, yet a look at their ingredients can be startling. Many prominently include processed corn syrup and other sugars, sodium, gluten, monosodium glutamate (MSG), artificial flavors and unpronounceable preservatives, according to Dana Angelo White, a registered dietitian in Fairfield, Connecticut.

Homemade versions of condiments provide a happy alternative. They not only taste great, but can be good for us. “Certain condiments add more to your meals than flavor—some actually improve your health,” says White. The potassium in homemade mustard is good for the digestive system through stimulating the flow of saliva, suggests a study in the Indian Journal of Medical Research. Homemade ketchup made with small cooked tomatoes is rich in lycopene, a nutrient that protects heart health, according to research published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. White’s fresh-made “THE Green Sauce,” full of vitamin-rich avocado and cilantro, is replete with antioxidants (Tinyurl.com/TheGreenSauceRecipe).
Better Basics Ketchup
Heather McClees, a plant-based nutritionist in South Carolina who blogs at
Natural Awakenings recommends using organic, non-GMO (genetically modified) and non-bromated ingredients whenever possible.

One Green Planet, once loved commercial ketchup; then she read the
labels. “Most ketchup is made of tomato concentrates, sugars, including high-fructose corn syrup, cane sugar, agave nectar, coconut nectar/syrup, brown rice syrup, cane juice and cane crystals, vinegar, “spices” that is likely code for MSG, water and refined salt. All of this makes ketchup addicting,” she says. “While you could pay for pricey organic ketchup and condiments that come without added sugars, you can save money by spending five minutes in the kitchen to make your own.” Find a recipe at Tinyurl.com/ HealthyKetchupRecipe.
Mustard
Serious Eats food writer Joshua Bousel uses only six ingredients to make a deliciously easy Grainy Mustard: yellow and brown mustard seeds, dry white wine, white wine vinegar, kosher salt and an optional pinch of brown sugar. Learn how at Tinyurl.com/WholeGrainDijonRecipe.
Mayonnaise and Ranch Dressing
Eschewing eggs, J. Kenji Lopez-Alt, of San Mateo, California, uses aquafaba, the starchy liquid in a can of chickpeas, for a plant-based twist on emulsified mayonnaise. Find it at Tinyurl.com/AquafabaMayoRecipe. In her Mebane, North Carolina, kitchen, Kim Campbell, author of The PlantPure Kitchen, makes a plant-based ranch dressing with tofu for body and nutritional yeast, herbs and lemon juice to achieve the characteristic flavor. Find it at Tinyurl.com/HealthyRanchDressing.
More Exotic Condiments Pomegranate Molasses
Sweet and tart pomegranate molasses can be used like vinegar in salad dressings, as a marinade ingredient or as syrup over pancakes and waffles. Angela Buchanan, aka Angela Cooks, a professor at the University of Colorado, in Boulder, who blogs at SeasonalAndSavory.com, follows the Whole30 program, which bars sugar. Because she also likes Middle-Eastern food, Buchanan experimented and created her recipe for Pomegranate Molasses without added sugar (Tinyurl.com/PomegranateMolassesRecipe).
Superfood Popcorn Seasoning
Green popcorn is fun. With a spirulina powder, garlic powder, sea salt and cayenne pepper spice mix, even a movie snack can be healthy. “Spirulina is one of the most potent of all superfoods. Available in a powder form, it’s a blue-green algae that provides protein, B vitamins and iron. It’s used as a natural energizer, digestive aid and detoxifier,” says Tara Milhern, a holistic health coach in New York City. She also likes it sprinkled on baked potatoes or vegetables as a finishing flavor. See Tinyurl.com/ HealthyPopcornSeasoning. Without preservatives, homemade healthy condiments don’t last as long as commercial versions. McClees advises, “I store mine in a glass mason jar for one week in the fridge. I choose a half-pint-size jar, since the less empty space there is at the top of the jar, the longer it keeps.”

DIY Condiment Recipes THE Green Sauce
“This sauce is a salad dressing, dipping sauce or sandwich spread,” says nutrition expert Dana Angelo White. “After tasting it, you’ll be putting it on everything.” Yields: about 2 cups
Plant-Based Ranch Dressing
“Ranch dressing can be dairy-free and made with tofu, making it plant-based and oil-free,” says Kim Campbell. Yields: about 2 cups 2 lb tofu, about 2 (14-oz) packages 1½ Tbsp fresh parsley, chopped ¾ cup onion, finely chopped 2 cloves garlic 3 Tbsp distilled white vinegar 2 Tbsp agave syrup 1 Tbsp lemon juice 1 tsp nutritional yeast 1 tsp dry mustard ¼ tsp paprika ½ tsp celery seeds 1 Tbsp dried chives ¾ cup filtered water
Combine ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Taste for seasoning and adjust as needed. If mixture appears too thick, add a little more water. Courtesy of Registered Dietitian Dana Angelo White
Pomegranate Molasses
It takes about an hour to cook down, but homemade unsweetened pomegranate molasses is worth the time, advises Angela Cooks. Yields: 1 cup 32 oz unsweetened organic pomegranate juice Fill a saucepan with the juice and bring it to a low boil. Reduce the heat so the liquid will stay at a low boil, and let the juice cook down to a scant cup of thick, syrupy liquid. This takes about an hour; note that it will thicken more once it is cooled. Once arriving at a desired thickness while cooking, let it cool completely.
Blend all ingredients in a food processor until smooth.
Transfer the pomegranate molasses to a glass jar to store in the refrigerator where it will keep well for a few months.

Pillow Self-Talk Three Questions to Ponder Before Sleeping by Krista O’Reilly Davi-Digui
A
sking ourself three purposeful questions before retiring each night can help us rest content knowing that although we may not have lived our day perfectly, we did live it well.
GREEN IS SEEN when you advertise with us 561-626-5584
1
What are three things I am grateful for?
It’s possible to live with eyes and heart wide open to the amazing beauty of each day, to receive it as a gift, rather than a guarantee. By looking, we can find gifts even amid uncertainty, struggle, pain or loss. In those times when we find ourselves fighting for gratitude, know that the grace found in thankfulness for even tiny blessings sustains us and builds resilience to walk through the storm and emerge intact. Reading One Thousand Gifts, by Ann Voskamp, or A Simple Act of Gratitude, by John Kralik, may help inspire us to get started. With practice, expressing gratitude will come easily, like breathing or laughing with children.
2
What are two things I did well today?
Speaking words of life about ourselves, noticing what we do well and where we shine, may meet internal resistance. It seems second nature, especially for women, to see our own struggles or shortcomings, but not our beauty or all the ways we show up to serve others and use our strengths.
36
Palm Beach Edition
napalmbeach.com
Deepening the roots of self-awareness and self-compassion that permit us to accept that we are good enough enables us to step out in calm confidence.
3
What is one thing I would do differently?
Some nights we may find that given the chance, we wouldn’t have done one thing differently that day. More often we can identify something: a word spoken in impatience, spending too much time on the phone, being distracted from what’s important to us, procrastinating out of fear, or even forgetting to properly nourish ourselves. Instead of criticizing, the goal is to notice how we could better live fully aligned to our bigger goals and established values. Moment by moment, we can choose a growth mindset. We can learn to be as gentle with ourselves, as compassionate and forgiving, as we are with our children or spouse. We become aware that we get to choose who and how we want to be and that tomorrow is a new gift, a brand-new opportunity to more fully be our best self. Asking and answering these three purposeful questions may take five to 20 minutes. If we’re tempted to rush through it, remember that the resulting clarity and peace is worth the time invested. Krista O’Reilly Davi-Digui is a holistic nutrition and joyful living educator. She writes at ALifeInProgress.ca, from which this was adapted.

Eco-Upgrades for America’s Landmarks Monuments and Parks Adopt Sustainable Practices by Avery Mack
M
ore U.S. landmarks are now highlighting eco-friendly practices, demonstrating thathistory can be preserved while incorporating sustainability.
Space Needle, Seattle Built in 1962, the Space Needle is undergoing a $100 million makeover. The observation deck will soon feature improved views through glass instead of cage-like barriers. Restaurant patrons will enjoy a first-of-itskind rotating glass floor. Other eco-updates and upgrades include improved accessibility, internal systems, materials, elevators, paint, and seismic protection along its legs. Because the flame at the needle’s top consumed enough gas to heat 125 homes, it was replaced in 2000 with a flagpole mast, a beacon for aviators. When the rehab is completed in June, the structure will qualify for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Silver Certification.

Golden Gate National Recreation Area, Alcatraz Island, California A pioneer in hybrid ferries, Alcatraz Cruises combines solar, wind and diesel power to transport visitors. Captured rain freshens park gardens and salt water flushes toilets. In 2013, solar energy produced what would have otherwise necessitated 31,900 gallons of fossil fuel and 325 metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions.
Iolani Palace, Honolulu Updated lighting units with a life expectancy of 25 years enhance the Iolani Palace facade and provide a 77 percent energy savings, partly through an “instant on” feature instead of power-up lights.

buses are fueled by compressed natural gas. In 2010, a Climate Action Plan introduced green office practices, conversion to solar water heaters in National Park Service residences and increased composting to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from internal operations by 30 percent by 2020. The park is unique in its composting program for mule waste.
The iconic historic structure is the tallest LEED-certified building in the U.S. It’s also the most photographed building in the world, according to Cornell University researchers in Ithaca, New York. All 6,514 windows were refurbished to be four times more energy efficient than before, reusing 96 percent of the original glass and frames.
Walking Mountains Science Center, Avon, Colorado Using both passive and active solar energy, ground-source heat pumps, vegetated roofs and sustainable building materials, Walking Mountains is the first science center in Colorado to achieve LEED Platinum Certification, exceeding requirements. Collectively, three of its buildings use half the energy of an average school building. Straw bale construction in some building walls provides sound-deadening insulation suited to a dry climate.
Gateway Arch National Park, St. Louis St. Louis’ CityArchRiver initiative raised a mile-long waterfront by 30 inches to reduce flood days by 67 percent without causing flooding downstream. “Spent grain donated by the neighboring Anheuser-Busch Brewery fertilizes our 4,200 trees,” says Eric Moraczewski, executive director of the Gateway Arch National Park Foundation. In another innovation, “To aerate the soil without dam-

Liberty Bell, Philadelphia, and Ground Zero Museum, New York City “The area housing the Liberty Bell is limited. We installed our ActivePure technology that reduces 99 percent of surface microorganisms and 90 percent of airborne microorganisms,” says Kevin Hickey, president of Aerus, LLC, in Dallas. “It keeps germs from spreading in crowded situations.” ActivePure is also in place at the Ground Zero Museum. “The nature of the artifacts often caused itchy eyes and coughs,” Hickey recalls. “We donated freestanding units and saw improved air quality the next day.”

Charleston Harbor water fills the saltwater fish tanks, and landscaping using less-thirsty native plants reduces freshwater use.

KID TALK How to Communicate with a Child by Amber Lanier Nagle
D
udley Evenson didn’t set out to devise a strategy to foster constructive, nurturing communications between parents and their offspring. Yet as she and her husband, Dean, raised their three children decades ago, timeless guiding principles emerged. “We were like other parents—learning and growing along with our children,” says Evenson, a certified professional life coach, musician and co-founder of the instrumental recording label Soundings of the Planet (Soundings.com), in Bellingham, Washington. “Then, in the early 1980s, I met Joshua Halpern, who wanted to include our perspectives and techniques in his book, Children of the Dawn: Visions of the New Family.” So she shared her way of cultivating kind, caring and empathetic youngsters that has worked for two generations of her family: “Our role is not to impose our beliefs on children and grandchildren,

but to guide and help them develop their dreams, visions, paths and passions.” Other experts agree.
Stay Clear. Evenson contends that
children are often mirrors of the surrounding moods and attitudes, so our example is paramount. “Children absorb our feelings and emotions,” says Melanie Hogin, a social worker who counsels foster families in greater Nashville.“‘Transference’ is its textbook term. Stay calm and clear when you are around children, and keep the lines of communication open.”
Be Consistent. Evenson maintains,
“Mom and Dad or the primary parental figures should try to establish a unified, mutually supportive program.” “Consistency is one of the cornerstones of effective parenting,” says Dana Cooley-Keith, with 20 years of experience working with families in crisis in Northwest
napalmbeach.com
Be positive, honest, flexible, reasonable and understanding. “It
is key to explain things to children and to listen to them,” says Evenson’s daughter, Cristen Olsen, of Seattle, who raised her daughter using her family’s guiding principles, and now uses them as a nanny. “It helps them learn how to process situations and find their own resolutions to difficult problems.” Olsen says she becomes a mediator when the siblings she cares for don’t agree. “We solve the problem together by hearing all sides, talking through the issues and reaching for understanding. Many times, the kids come up with their own solutions.”
Provide meaningful boundaries and restrictions. Kids typically push
to find their limits. “Establish limits and boundaries when children are young,” says Cooley-Keith. “They will be more accepting of rules if you establish them earlier, rather than later. Most often, boundaries provide security for kids.”
Accept their point of view. Evenson
always encouraged her children to voice their opinions. “This is a great point,” says Hogin. “For children to learn to have opinions and speak out, we must value what they say. We don’t have to agree with everything they say, but should listen and encourage them to find their voice and use their words.”
Trust children. “Believe in them,” affirms Evenson. “Be on their side. Let them feel your support and love.”
Don’t nag. “We all want children to
develop their own sense of responsibility,” Olsen says. “I find making strong eye contact reinforces my words, so I don’t have to nag or repeat myself often.”
Be available, rather than putting kids on the spot in public. “If you
correct or redirect a child in front of others, they will probably be focused on being embarrassed and fail to understand the lesson or reasoning a parent is trying to project,” says Hogin. “Taking a step back and working out an issue one-on-one is usually more appropriate and effective.”
Maintain good habits. Evenson em-
phasizes the character strength that comes from observing and practicing good habits and healthy lifestyles that avoids gossip and incorporates creative exploration of life. This includes “Doing everything in love,” she notes. Such all-encompassing love balances love for our own children with love for all children and respect for all life.
Be patient with yourself. “No one is perfect,” Evenson remarks. “Just do your best. Guide, console and discipline while keeping a sense of humor.” Connect with the freelance writer at AmberNagle.com.

Time spent with cats is never wasted.
Loneliness is never a problem with a cat around. “Cats need to be fed, have litter changed and be brushed,” says Lisa Bahar, a therapist and clinical counselor at Lisa Bahar Marriage and Family Therapy, in Newport Beach, California. “Being comforted by a cat helps with depression and isolation.” While at Indiana University Bloomington Media School, Jessica Gall Myrick, Ph.D., now associate professor at Donald P. Bellisario College of Communications at Pennsylvania State University, in University Park, discovered watching cat videos isn’t just fun, but a way to feel more energetic and positive. With some 94 million YouTube tales of cat adventures online, there’s no lack of available mood boosters.

Improved Health Talking to kitty can make a bad day better. A lap cat prompts enforced timeouts and excuses to nap. Petting reduces tension and stress. Aimee Gilbreath, executive director of the Michelson Found Animals Foundation, in Los Angeles, points to a study from Life Sciences Research Institute, in Pretoria, South Africa, showing, “Simply petting a cat can reduce stress-related cortisol, while increasing serotonin and oxytocin.” The Second National Health and Nutrition Examination Study Mortality Follow-up concluded that having a cat lowers risk of myocardial infarction (heart attack) and cardiovascular disease including strokes, making cats a novel path to a healthier heart.

I have lived with several Zen masters—all of them cats. ~Eckhart Tolle the Journal of the Acoustical Society of America measured the purring sound of domestic cat purrs, they discovered these resonate at 25 and 50 Hertz (Hz), the two low frequencies that best promote bone growth and fracture healing. Purrs also have a strong harmonic near 100 Hz, a level some orthopedic doctors and physical therapists use for ultrasound therapy. A child under a year old living with a cat is only half as likely to develop allergies to pets, ragweed, grass and dust mites, much as inoculations guard against disease and boost immune systems. The study, published in Clinical & Experimental Allergy, followed children from infancy to age 18. French researchers discovered autistic children age 5 and older that had a cat were more willing to share, offer com-
fort to others and show empathy. Sharing cat responsibilities tightened family bonds. Cats like routine, especially for meals, making them good pets for Alzheimer’s patients that may lose track of time. Many people like the added warmth of a nearby sleeping cat at night. Fifteen minutes of exercise, followed by a snack, will put kitty on the owner’s sleep schedule.
Cats are Low-Maintenance Overall, cats are self-sufficient animals, requiring only love, food and a spotless litter box. Self-cleaning, most cats don’t require regular trips to the groomer for haircuts and a bath. Scratching posts keep nails short. A snack, playtime or welcoming puddle of sunshine persuades kitty that it’s naptime. “In rescue, we say dogs are toddlers and cats are teenagers.
Cats live without constant oversight,” says jme Thomas, co-founder of Motley Zoo Animal Rescue, in Redmond, Washington. “They’re good pets for busy people. Adopt two at the same time so they bond and aren’t lonely.”
Cats are Eco-Friendly A New Zealand study reports that cats have a lower carbon footprint than dogs, comparing dogs to a Hummer and cats to a Volkswagen Golf. Dogs eat more beef, incurring red meat’s huge footprint. “Because cats eat less than most dogs overall, it saves money, too,” says Gilbreath. Everyone needs someone to care for and love. With about 77 million cats living in U.S. households and more in shelters or rescues, there’s plenty of people- and planet-friendly love to be found.

e all deal with stress every day and we hear about it everywhere. Friends and family, at work or play, on TV or movies, books or news: everybody’s talking about stress. So what are we doing about it? First, let’s define stress. Many years ago, Dr. Hans Selye, perhaps the most famous physician to research stress and its affects on us, had a fairly simple definition for stress. He defined stress as simply our response to change. Think about it: how do we respond to change? Implicit in this statement is the neutrality of the words “response” and “change”. The change can be big or little, labeled good or bad or otherwise, but it’s we who provide the labels and we who choose the response. And we usually respond in response to our labels! So who’s responsible for how we view the change and how we respond to it? We are! I’m sure we are all familiar with examples of the ability of our minds to convince us that something is either good or bad and therefore doable or not. Our parents got us to do things or eat food, for instance, that we didn’t like, but managed to, after various forms of creative convincing. And we still do this, more or less, every day of our lives. We all are living examples of how the body affects the mind and the mind affects the body. I have said it before in this column that it’s often a basic truth that when we feel good we act good and when we feel bad we act bad. For example, you know that when you are nervous or worried about something, symptoms appear in your body, such as upset stomach, restlessness, headache, and so on. And the opposite is true: physical symptoms such as pain or illness can affect us emotionally and get us down, even depressed. So how we label changes and how we respond to them is our choice, and we can choose health and happiness. Some incredible evidence has resulted from the large number of research projects over the years directed at the body-mind connections. A partial list of conditions that have been scientifically proven to be affected by positive attitude techniques includes: a allergies and allergic skin reactions a asthma a anxiety a depression a digestive symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, constipation and stomach ulcers a heart pain and arrhythmias
a high blood pressure a infertility a insomnia a pain of all types a pms I took a course with Dr. David Cheek years ago, who was then one of the best known physicians and researchers in the field of clinical hypnosis. He told us and demonstrated to us how he and other physicians had discovered and documented that people remembered everything while under anesthesia for surgery, and that with the proper suggestions, bleeding, side effects and healing times and responses were all significantly and positively shortened. The power of the mind is such that I have witnessed films of women having c-sections with no anesthesia, only hypnosis! A few years ago, I had the good fortune to meet Dr. Herbert Benson, the founder of the Mind/Body Institute in Boston, Mass. He is an associate professor at Harvard Medical School and has done much of the ground-breaking research on bridging the affects of mind and body in science and medicine. He has written several books, hundreds of research papers, lectured internationally, and many of you may have heard of him or seen him on TV. His latest book: “The Relaxation Response”, addresses exactly what we have been discussing here. He condenses the whole relaxation response to stress or change to two simple steps: 1. a sound or word or phrase or prayer, repeated silently or aloud, and 2. a passive attitude, i.e., not worrying or thinking about any other thoughts or distractions, but always returning to one’s relaxed center of focus. That’s it! Whatever your beliefs, culture, language or religion, you choose the word or phrase, and repeat it gently and relaxedly for about twenty minutes at a time. You can sit or stand or walk, you can be in any environment. Just repeat your positive word or phrase in a relaxed and focused manner, without following any other thoughts that may come in. The results are tangible and reproducible and have been the subject of hundreds of research projects. Historically, this remarkable subject has been expressed for thousands of years in every culture and religion. You can buy Dr. Benson’s book anywhere and read more. I urge you all to do this, to learn to be focused and relaxed, and share it with everyone you know. Imagine the results! William H.

Child of the Earth with Grandfather Rick McBride, mixed-blood Cherokee; 12:00 pm to 2:00 pm; $25. Long before organized religions, there existed ancient traditions resulting from recognizing the existence of the spirit world, through the observation of the physical world, whether Earth Mother or Gaia, and direct communication with and experience of those “other-worldly” beings, variously named the gods, spirits, ancestors, guides, or helper beings. What is it to be “Earth-friendly” today; can nonreligious people be “good” people? 1489 North Military Trail, Suite 209, West Palm Beach 33409. Please RSVP: call 561-333-3372, or email pearlrauberts@hotmail.com, details at www.rauberts.com Earth-Based Spirituality with Grandfather Rick McBride, mixed-blood Cherokee, 2:30 pm to 4:30 pm; $25. Most people are surprised to learn Native Americans do not practice an organized religion. In 1990 about 8% of adults self-identified as “spiritual, not religious.” By 2013 that number more than doubled. The number of spiritual, not religious people under the age of 30 is about 35%. There is a growing core of the population dedicated to non-religious spiritual practice. For some, to be “spiritual, not religious” is a path closer to Creator. If you find greater peace sitting in a forest than in a pew, if you would rather listen to Spirit sing through the birds than sit inside four walls, if you hear the animals, or trees when they talk, you might be ready to step into an Earth-based spiritual life. 1489 Military Trail, Suite 209, West Palm Beach 33409.

“For 42 years we searched for something to take care of Restless Leg Syndrome. Not only does this product work but it works instantly! It’s Terrific. I recommend it to anyone who has this problem.” - Robert- Nebraska
Now you can end Sleep Apnea , Restless Legs and Leg Cramps and get a good Night’s sleep – night after night. Hi, I’m Steve Frank and I suffered from sleep apnea for years, so I know exactly what you’re going through. I even tried the CPAP machine but I could not sleep with anything strapped to my face. It was a serious problem and I was determined to find an answer. As an herbalist, I diligently pursued a group of herbs that would correct this problem and thank goodness, my persistence paid off! My patent-pending formulation has helped thousands and I use it every night. Now you can try it too! My Mom asked me what to do about persistent leg cramps. She had tried all the suggested supplements but still had problems. I put together a group of herbs to relax nerves, reduce tension and increase circulation. It worked great for her! Later, I found that it works for Restless Legs as well. Now you can use it too.
You owe it to yourself & your spouse to try these great products!
