Opportunities Abound for Holistic Practitioners at Awaken Fair
There will be plenty of opportunities for holistic practitioners to build (or rebuild) their businesses at the Awaken Fair on November 20 at the Sleepy Hollow Hotel and Conference Center, in Tarrytown. “Here is the premier chance for tri-state holistic businesses to connect with hundreds and hundreds of eager, interested people, looking for the natural, the innovative, the true path to a good life,” says Paula Caracappa, founder and CEO of the recurring mind, body, spirit wellness event. “With a 20-year-plus reputation for providing businesses a viable platform for presenting their product or services to a truly focused audience, the Awaken Fair is a professional, supportive environment for businesses to connect with their perfect clients.” Practitioners can choose from a variety of exhibitor categories to best grow their businesses, whether as a vendor, speaker, reader or healer—or a combination, explains Caracappa. “Each opportunity is rich with possibilities to grow a successful business.” She is anticipating a large turnout for the fair. “Everyone can feel the energies ramping up so much this fall,” says Caracappa. “More and more people are awakening to seek a different and better life—they are searching for answers. It's going to be a powerful fall.”

Free Video Series for Spiritual Health and Growth
Dr. Mike Berlin
Transformational coach Dr. Mike Berlin is offering a free video series as a road map to finding deeper peace and happiness. The series is an introduction to Berlin’s Living the Miracle program which guides people toward greater spiritual health and growth through teaching five healthy life skills that, for most of us, were missing while growing up, leaving us with false beliefs about ourselves and others. Berlin, or “Dr. Mike” as his clients call him, contends we feel at peace with life when we can find hope and comfort in even the hardest of times. “Spiritual growth comes from learning to “be” through awareness and acceptance,” he explains. “Spiritually we grow when we connect with our inner soul and become more harmonious with life around us, developing our own feelings of inner power and strength. This leads to taking more responsibility for own actions and happier living.” Berlin teaches his non-denominational, faith-based program in a fun, loving and interactive way. He emphasizes a practical reverence for our own self, God and all life. “I have never experienced such significant growth in such a short period of time,” says one client. Free, 15-minute virtual consultations are available to give people a taste of the healing potential of Living the Miracle. “Dr. Mike,” who’s also a chiropractor, says he’s spent 30 years helping people transform stress from their bodies and their lives. The key is removing the interference from “the natural expression of you,” he explains. That means overcoming negative experiences like divorce; physical, emotional or sexual abuse; bad parenting; neglect; violence; a traumatic event; or just the ups and downs of life.

Not all medication is created equally, which is why using a compounding pharmacy is beneficial when a patient has specific needs that must be met. New York-based The Chemist Shop Specialty Compounding Pharmacy offers custom formulations for vegan/allergy-friendly treatments, hormone replacement therapy, weight loss, pain management, dermatology and more. Owner Robert Viti explains the benefits of having medications formulated rather that filled at a chain pharmacy. First, exact dosages can be delivered when a physician prescribes less than the smallest available dosage in the market or a more maximum dosage. This eliminates pill cutting which doesn’t necessarily lead to an accurate dose. Second, compounding pharmacies can combine several medications into one prescribed liquid form. This is especially convenient for senior patients that may find it difficult to remember which medications are to be taken at one time. Liquid medications can also be flavored to make them more palatable to children and adults that can’t tolerate bitter tastes. Compounding pharmacies are particularly useful for people with allergies, as they can formulate treatments such as ointment for diaper rash, homeopathic remedies or creams for pets without using ingredients that trigger a reaction. Finally, compounding pharmacies have access to pure, premium, medicalgrade chemicals that often have lower costs. This makes compounded medicines less expensive than commercialized drugs.
