Humiston Wellness Rolfing®- Structural Method and Feldenkrais® Work When your neck or some other part of your body keeps hurting no matter what treatment has been applied to it, you will usually get lasting relief from Rolfing® or Feldenkrais® work, which systematically organizes the rest of your body so that place finally can relax. Karl Humiston was directly trained by Ida Rolf, PhD. Bonnie Humiston is a Guild Certified Feldenkrais® teacher and trainer, who studied directly with Moshe Feldenkrais for 10 years.
Fundamentally these methods work by restoring something that has been lost, by returning your body's structure and movement patterns to the "blueprint of perfection" that was given you in the beginning and the potential for which remains in you. When our work succeeds in restoring this, all kinds of problems get better because they cannot stay bad when your "blueprint" is restored. - Karl Humiston

letter from publisher
I
’ve been a visionary, entrepreneur and publisher of this magazine for nine extraordinary, evolutionary years. I believe I’ve always been a “game-changer”. Growing up back East, during the winter months my siblings, friends and I stayed indoors a lot playing games like Monopoly and Risk. We always made up new rules to enhance the fun and create better odds for the disadvantaged players. To me, it was more enjoyable when everybody was having a good time. Of course, there were always a few sharks who tried to change the rules for personal gain. We affectionately At Seattle’s Pike Place Market called these game-changers “NY Rules”. I broke a lot of with life long friend. rules growing up. I just couldn’t digest rules that didn’t work, or just didn’t make sense to me. That’s not exactly the game-changers we are referring to in this issue. However, isn’t it the same thing in a way? All we have to do is allow ourselves to think outside the box, leave our comfort zones and eliminate stigmas. We’re going through a game-changing time in history, that couldn’t be made possible without game-changers at the forefront of the movement. We just broke ground to an infinite amount of possibilities. For instance, we’ve legalized cannabis on a state level. Now we’re aiming to make hemp, a plant in the cannabis family, legal on a federal level. Years ago, hemp was unfairly lumped into classification as a schedule 1 drug. Hemp has over 25,000 possible uses that can benefit our health and environment. It can be used medicinally as CBD, with no psychotropic properties. It should never have been classified as a narcotic for that reason alone. Thankfully, the 2018 Farm Bill, which includes the Hemp Farming Act of 2018, should be passed by the time you are reading this. The bill will declassify hemp as a schedule 1 drug, thus allowing hemp products and CBD to be sold in all 50 states. Onward and upward folks. If you happen to have an alcoholic drink in your hand while reading this, but you’re thinking that CBD as a medicine is “out there”, I invite you to ponder what’s blocking your mind from accepting newer ways of living a healthier lifestyle. Crypto currency and block chain technology are breakthrough technologies, just like digging gold was back in the day, except now it’s a virtual dig. True, you may not strike a pot gold, but if you don’t dig at all, it’s an absolute truth that you will find nothing. Dig deep into your mind, heart and soul and discover unlimited valuable commodities that are here for us now. Linda Sechrist’s article on game changers (see page 14) says a lot about our younger generation. They are changing the rules. Like me when I was younger, they’re having a hard time digesting a lot of the rules that we created. To them, so many of the old rules just don’t make sense. First comes the mind change, and then the game changes. But it’s not just a game. It’s our future, our lives and our peace. Thanks to all you game-changers out there making it happen.

The Future of Health is Now
A
ccording to local practitioner Desiree Lawn, the revolutionary discovery and mapping of the Human Body-Field (HBF) by Peter Fraser, co-author of Decoding the Human Body-Field, The New Science of Information as Medicine, led to understanding of regulating body-field of energy and information that operates in the physical body at the subcellular level. In her practice, Lawn uses NES Health BioEnergetiX WellNES System (BWS), a software system that shows recommended protocols to stimulate the body’s innate self-healing ability. “During the scan, the body-field is matched to ideal or optimum information, then imbalances or distortions in the field are highlighted in various scan screens,” she explains. “Correction of the imbalances and distortions flagged by the scan using Infoceuticals can help balance the body-field, which allows biochemical, mental and emotional processes to work better, supporting optimum health and well-being.” Lawn says scans can be conveniently done anywhere, “including in the comfort of your home using your computer with downloaded software and small scanner that looks like a computer mouse.”

Dental anxiety, which can produce dizziness, nausea and breathing difficulties in 4 to 30 percent of patients worldwide, may be relieved by acupuncture, according to research from the University of York, in the UK. Analyzing six studies of 800 patients, researchers found that acupuncture reduced anxiety by an average of eight points on an 80-point scale, a level considered clinically significant.
Vitamin D Supplements Ease Irritable Bowels Oncology researchers from the University of Sheffield, in the UK, report that people with irritable bowel syndrome tend to be low in vitamin D. In a review of research, they found that supplemental vitamin D tends to ease associated symptoms such as bloating, stomach cramps and constipation, and improve quality of life.

Calorie Restriction Slows Aging Thirty-seven healthy, non-obese adults between 21 and 50 years old put on a calorie restriction diet for two years showed reduced systemic oxidative stress, indicating greater protection against age-related neurological diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, as well as cancer and diabetes. Participants in this research, conducted by Pennington Biomedical Research, in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, cut their calories by 15 percent and lost an average of 20 pounds without experiencing anemia, excessive bone loss or menstrual disorders. Their metabolism also slowed, indicating that they burned energy more efficiently, a factor that may be linked to longevity.

Oil Giant to Invest in Renewable Energies Project
Saudi Arabia intends to host the world’s largest solar project. “It’s a huge step in human history,” says Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman. “It’s bold, risky and we hope we succeed in doing that.” Solar power is a logical choice for the country. Its capital, Riyadh, averages 8.9 hours of sunshine a day. The nation is also projected to be severely impacted if climate change raises global temperatures 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. According to Climate Action Tracker, if the global temperature rises 3 to 4 degrees Celsius, 75 percent of the country would be excessively arid by the end of the century. According to the most recent data available from the U.S. Energy Information Administration, Saudi Arabia produces 13 percent of the world’s oil and currently obtains 60 percent of its electric energy from petroleum.
Leading Food Companies Aim to Slash Energy Footprints
A new study shows that there are significantly fewer plastic bags on the seafloor since a number of European countries introduced fees on them, according to a 25-year study from the UK government’s Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (CEFAS). Researchers saw an estimated 30 percent drop in the number of plastic bags in waters around Norway, Germany, northern France and Ireland. “It is encouraging to see that efforts by all of society, whether the public, industry, non-government organizations or government, to reduce plastic bags are having an effect,” says Thomas Maes, a marine litter scientist at CEFAS. “We also observed sharp declines in the percentage of plastic bags captured by fishing nets trawling the seafloor around the UK compared to 2010, and this research suggests that by working together, we can reduce, reuse and recycle to tackle the marine litter problem.”
McDonald’s plans to reduce greenhouse emissions from their restaurants, corporate offices and supply chain by more than 30 percent by 2030. They’re the first restaurant chain with goals backed by the Science Based Targets initiative. The company expects to decrease its total emissions by more than 150 million tons. AB InBev, the parent company of Anheuser-Busch and Budweiser beer, has ambitious plans to purchase electricity only from renewable sources for its worldwide operations in seven years. The first step includes Bud Light. The goal is for all operations in the company’s 12 Budweiser breweries across the U.S. to be powered by renewable energy. Budweiser plants outside the U.S. will also switch to all-renewable energy, with all products planned to transition by 2025. The new status will be denoted by the label “100% Renewable Energy”.

PUBLISHER'S PICK
Natural Awakenings Magazine Franchise
I
just got back from my first ever trip to the wonderful city of Seattle. I went to visit one of my oldest best friends, and wouldn’t you know, during our first stop at Pike Place Market, I came across a Natural Awakenings magazine. The younger ones in our group thought it was a big deal because not only did I own a Natural Awakenings, but I was featured in the Seattle edition as well. My initial thought was, “Isn’t that cute? They think it’s a big deal!” As I watched my lifelong friend’s daughter carry the magazine around, I thought how amazing it really was that Natural Awakenings had made its way from coast to coast. I love knowing that in so many places I travel to, there’s someone in the Natural Awakenings family helping that community create more health and wellness. It’s a great feeling! In last month’s issue, I made it very clear that I’m selling my publication. I’m manifesting the opportunity to pass the magical baton onto the next passionate person with the purpose to expand not only the market place but the knowledge, too. A new game-changer will bring new positive changes. I can’t see it happening any other way. Even though I want to shift my role as publisher, I’ve got nothing but love for this family of magazines. Being a publisher of Natural Awakenings is a rewarding business that just keeps on giving. I believe Natural Awakenings is the most informative and authentic heathy living magazine around. The publishers, copublishers, advertisers, distributors, writers, editors, readers— basically everyone in this overall organic network of people—are the creme de la creme. Being a publisher not only changed my life, it saved my life in many ways. If being a publisher resonates with you, reach out. I’d love to share more about the business and help you discover whether it’s a good fit for you too!

Ethan Sonneborn, 13, has a comprehensive policy platform and a spot on the 2018 Democratic gubernatorial primary ballot in Vermont. In an early campaign speech, the Bristol resident and Mt. Abraham Union Middle/High School student smiled at the crowd’s applause for his message: “To everyone here today, know this. We are America’s future… So let’s not be afraid to shape it… We must be the voices of a generation, leaders for others and advocates for ourselves. Why shouldn’t we be the ones to end worldwide hunger, to make a breakthrough in medical science, to protect world peace or to put people on another planet? We are the generation that will do all these things. Why not start now?” In addressing environmental issues,

ecognizing that it might be too late by the time they are older, many young people are already acting collectively and across partisan aisles on everything from climate change and the environment to gun control, gender equality, social justice, education and politics. Initiatives include creating solutions for the global water crisis, serving as global ambassadors, training for public speaking and leadership, organizing youth summits, marching for causes, planting a trillion trees, participating in United Nations (UN) programs, inventing a new educational system, lobbying legislators and seeking political office.
Girl Up!
Angie Jiang, a 2018 graduate of Madison 14
San Diego Edition
NA-SD.com
West High School, in Wisconsin, is a first-year student at Columbia University, in New York. Deploying her social impact and debating skills, this Chinese-American woman articulates her opinions on sustainability, environmental awareness, immigration and gender issues in public radio interviews and lobbies for policy changes in Washington, D.C. She’s one of 80,000 girls in some 100 countries that have been trained by the UN Foundation’s Girl Up initiative to help lead the movement for gender equality; Jiang currently serves as its 2017-2018 teen advisor. “Within our current political climate, it is more important than ever to use your voice, no matter who you are, where you live and whatever you identify as,” says Jiang.
Sonneborn supports a tax on carbon emissions, Vermont’s commitment to uphold the standards of the Paris climate agreement and renewable energy incentives. In Kansas, where six teenagers are running for governor, Tyler Ruzich’s campaign theme is, “A Republican for the Next Generation.” This Shawnee Mission North High School senior has serious concerns and ideas to make his state a better place to live, learn and work. A well-prepared orator committed to public service, Ruzich is reaching younger voters on issues of voter registration, school funding, taxation, guns, immigration, agriculture, equal rights and job growth. On the Matter of Fact with Soledad O’Brien syndicated TV show, Ruzich said he believes his campaign is stimulating 18-to25-year-olds to get involved in mid-term elections, which typically draw fewer voters.

Zero Waste
Brandi Kneip’s family in Stuart, Florida, didn’t object when the 18-year-old decided to spend her college savings establishing a JAR dry goods store that fosters reusing and recycling materials to decrease or eliminate trash. Customers can buy what they need by dispensing pasta, herbs, spices, flour and other products into their own reusable jars or purchase glass containers to take home. JAR also carries eco-friendly household items. “I want my impact on this Earth to be like footprints in the sand. For a second, the Earth knows you are there, and when you move along, the waves wash them out or the wind blows them away. I’m so thankful for this big, green-blue planet, and I’ll strive every day to make more people notice the beauty it holds,” says Kneip.
Earth Child Institute
Arati Patel was just 24 when she began serving as an intern with Earth Child Institute (ECI), a nonprofit that empowers global youth to engage with sustainability issues. Today, the New Jersey resident serves as its president, and is passionate about why investing in the education of children is significant. As just one example, “Amazonian children are teaching their parents about how deforestation impacts climate change,” says Patel. A degree in environmental law and policy at Vermont Law School, in South Royalton, and expertise in environmental education, curriculum development, field research and community outreach has helped Patel to assist in developing lesson plans for ECI Water Schools. Community groups and schools are mobilized to evaluate the health of rivers and provide basic training in good health habits.
Plant-for-the-Planet
Felix Finkbeiner, a German student, started Plant-for-the-Planet in 2007, when he was only 9. “It’s an amazing organization run by young people,” says Patel. Inspired by the late Nobel Peace Prize laureate Wangari Maathai, founder of the Green Belt Movement, Finkbeiner expanded Maathai’s original concept of a billion 16

plantings to the Trillion Tree Campaign. To date, it’s seen 15 billion new trees in 190 countries under the guidance of the U.N. Environment Programme. Speaking at an Environmental Systems Research Institute Conference, Finkbeiner said that beyond planting trees, children involved in the initiative have delivered presentations in schools and rotary clubs, and engineered sit-down meetings with mayors, local government officials and even presidents of countries. Several have spoken before the UN General Assembly and national parliaments, urging them to address the climate crisis.
A Revolution in Education
After graduating from Beijing University Affiliated High School, Jason Wang, 18, postponed college for a year and visited the U.S. and Europe looking for the best practices in education. When he returned, he was in no hurry to enter college, but rather to develop the curriculum for Beijing’s Moonshot Academy, which opened in January with 30 students from 14 to 16 years old. Turning traditional methods of education on its ear, Moonshot Academy students are accepted based on their learning ability, independent thinking skills and capacity to turn ideas into action, rather than standardized test scores. Students learn through personalized experiences that enable them to practice and demonstrate core competencies to face the challenges of the future. “Research shows that by the age of 39, today’s average high school graduate will have had nine different jobs, half of which have not been invented yet. Artificial intelligence has changed the playing field. We can’t keep educating kids in the same way,” says Nancy Riehle, executive director of the Creative Academic Network Scholastic Foundation that supports the academy.
Time’s Up
Inspired by the January 2017 Women’s March, Jamie Margolin, a 16-year-old student at Seattle’s Holy Names Academy, launched Zero Hour, a movement for youth rights and action on climate change. Margolin and her teammates have
formed a nationwide coalition that inspires and mobilizes students throughout the U.S. and in London, England. They took to the streets on July 21 to march for environmental justice as social justice. Zero Hour activities supporting the Washington, D.C., march included meeting with nearly 40 federal lawmakers and presenting a manifesto of demands. It calls for governments and companies to take action on all climate change and environmental issues, including divesting from fossil fuels; increasing investment in renewable energy; legislating strict carbon reduction targets; encouraging plant-based lifestyles; schooling youth on the importance of reducing our carbon footprint; reducing excessive use of single-use plastic; ending rainforest deforestation; halting all animal cruelty; and preventing loss of biodiversity and species extinctions. Margolin and other Zero Hour members agree, including Nadia Nazar, 16, an art director from Baltimore, Maryland; Zanagee Artis, 18, a logistics director from Clinton, Connecticut; and Kibiriti Majuto, 20, of Charlottesville, Virginia, originally from the Democratic Republic of the Congo. They jointly developed the organization’s platform. “It’s our generation that is going to be impacted the most by the effects of accelerated climate change that we are causing. This march is a launch. We’re not done,” says Margolin. At a pivotal time in which many theorize that our nation lacks the ability to coalesce around a great enterprise to solve existing problems, it appears that those doing the calculating have not factored in the millions of motivated young people as critical decision makers. It may be that their imagination, energetic drive, passionate self-confidence and “no borders” cooperation paves the way to a brighter future for all. Not waiting for the torch to be passed, young people are seizing it and acting now, no longer naively thinking that there will always be enough time tomorrow.

MULTIFACETED CHIROPRACTIC Integrative Approaches Enhance Healing

tic are manifold. Typical approaches for structural issues and injuries include spinal adjustments, therapeutic ultrasound and heat therapy, but some practitioners also embrace nutrition. Training requirements for chiro-
practors vary by state. “Here in Oregon, chiropractic physicians—both legally and through our training—are taught to be primary care physicians,” says Doctor of Chiropractic Michael Herb, of the Absolute Wellness Center, in Eugene, Oregon. “We must complete extensive training not only on the musculoskeletal system, but also on managing various internal medical pathologies such as those related to the cardiovascular system, genitourinary conditions, obstetrics and gynecology. We also learn to perform minor surgical procedures.” Chiropractor Tom Hyland Robertson, of Whole Chiropractic Healthcare, in Odenton, Maryland, notes, “To limit chiropractic to two categories of traditional and integrative isn’t accurate. There are almost as many specialists among doctors of chiropractic (DC) as among medical doctors (M.D.). There are chiropractors that specialize in pediatrics, veterinary, orthopedics, internal medicine, neurology, radiology and other areas. Integrative chiropractic uses as many tools as possible from the realm of each doctor’s training.”
Integrative Well-Being The world of chiropractic is diverse and growing to meet patient needs. Many chiropractors offer several healing modalities in-house that are geared to take whole-person care to an integrated harmonious level.

healing ways
“Research shows that patient outcomes are far better with a multidisciplinary approach to healthcare needs,” says Herb. “Offering a variety of specialties like physical therapy, sports medicine, nutrition and natural pain relief in my practice means patients receive the care and amount of time they need. They are not limited by what I personally can offer or have time to provide.” Many chiropractic facilities nationwide employ acupuncturists and therapeutic massage therapists, offering diverse treatment options like functional medicine and cryotherapy— ice therapy—versus traditional heat therapy. Robertson provides complementary treatments ranging from nutrition to physical therapy and yoga because he has found it is important to incorporate multiple treatment philosophies, examining the same problem from different angles, saying, “Chiropractic integrates many safe modalities found to be more effective than opioids, for instance.” He notes that early chiropractic was actually integrative, with its founder, Daniel David Palmer, promoting a healthy diet and calmer lifestyle a century ago.
Collaborative Options Progressive chiropractic now includes innovative approaches to treat the nervous system. The cutting-edge field of functional (or chiropractic) neurology, which reactivates partially nonfunctional neural pathways, is employed in cases like concussions, vertigo, migraines, pain syndromes, neuropathy and attentiondeficit disorders. Massage modalities, combined with chiropractic, are widely recognized to significantly increase circulation and improve range of motion. Acupuncture, when used in conjunction with chiropractic treatment, enhances muscle relaxation and fosters easier adjustments. Chiropractor Kody R. Johnson, of the Johnson Chiropractic and Holistic Health Center, in Columbia, Missouri, is board certified in acupuncture and employs dry needling to target trigger points in tight muscles. He also specializes in functional medicine. Hormone balance, nutritional inadequacies, the presence of heavy metals and genetic markers for disease are all considered in determining a patient’s overall health. “Chiropractic treatment addresses results of physical stress. Functional medicine looks at emotional and biochemical stress,” says Johnson. “The chiropractic paradigm is based on the premise that the body has an inborn ability to heal itself. If the only method a provider has to offer is chiropractic adjustments, then they’ll have cases where the patient’s condition doesn’t fully improve because there might be other factors at play, including nutritional deficiencies, toxicities and emotional stress. When we address other relevant issues, we find that patients ‘hold’ their adjustments longer.” Marlaina Donato is a freelance writer, multimedia artist and author of books in the spirituality and alternative health genres.

in Jung, director of marketing and sales for IrieCBD, ended up working for the company in a very organic manner. While nursing a sports injury, Jung spent a week mostly hobbling around on crutches or lying in bed. Motivated by his pain and lack of mobility, Jung sought out a solution when he discovered IrieCBD Pain Cream. He began using the product and it worked wonders. Little did he know a pain relief cream would soon change the course of his life. A week later, and much to his doctor’s disbelief, he turned in his crutches. The following week he was dancing at a Dead & Company show. The reason behind his speedy recovery was not lost on him. “I knew it was the CBD pain cream. I called Irie and told them how much their product helped me. And then, I asked if there were any job opportunities available,” he recalls. Lucky for Jung, there was an opening in the sales and marketing department. Shortly thereafter, he was invited to interview with this socially conscious California-based CBD company. “The more I learned about Irie during that interview, the more I loved everything about what the company stands for,” he says. “Their philosophy resonated so much with my value system. Even the name Irie, which means ‘everything is going to be OK,’ felt good to me. During the interview process, I discovered that everybody who works at Irie just wants to be of service, and that really was an exciting prospect.” Jung joined the Irie family and has been enthusiastically sharing the story about their products ever since. “I feel more alignment with this career path than anything I’ve ever done in my life. My work feels joyful; I love the Irie company culture. We operate from a place of integrity in everything that we do. We’re moving through this world in a conscious, positive way that feels good and right while creating products that are made with a lot of joy and love,” he affirms. In addition to that joy and love, Jung is passionate about sharing something even more amazing, and that is the science and technology behind Irie products. “Science informs every one of the products we create. Rick Potts, Irie co-founder and
formulator, partners with cannabinoid researchers to create these science-based formulas. Our team recognizes that we’re providing a product to many people that have compromised immune systems. With that in mind, all our hemp is grown to clean, green, organic standards on USDA certified land. It all starts with the soil and we test from soil to oil. Everything in our product line has to be clean enough for our customers.” Jung is very optimistic about the future of hemp and believes we are in a game-changing moment in modern American history, thanks to the 2018 Farm Bill, which includes the Hemp Farming Act of 2018. According to the website Cannagreed.com, the Bill will “remove hemp as … a controlled substance, legalizing the crop under federal law, which will allow CBD to be legally sold in all 50 states. The bill, which has the support of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, is awaiting congressional approval, which would replace the 2014 Farm Bill, which expires on September 30.” “This is truly a game-changing point in history. Hemp is in the process of becoming 100 percent federally legal. The deadline for the bill to pass is September 30, so by the time this issue hits the street, hopefully, we will have made history. Hemp is a game-changing resource. More than 25 thousand amazing products can be made from this sustainable, renewable and carbon negative plant. The legalization of hemp will create a significant impact from a human and environmental health perspective. There are so many opportunities for hemp to really make a difference. It’s exciting.” Jung says that a huge thanks goes out to the those in the cannabis industry who have been working for more than 40 years to promote the healthful benefits of this product. “It’s been a long process, but the shackles are coming off. Plant medicine is the wave of the future. It feels good, solves problems naturally, and helps put people’s health back into their own hands.” For more information, call 888-565-4665 or visit IrieCBD.com. See ad, back cover.
ADHD
A Curse or a Blessing? by Dr. Danielle Chavalarias
R
ecently, one of my clients shared that she finally made the decision to come see me because she was sick and tired of feeling bad. “ADHD impacted my family and the results of my business. It was hard to manage everything because of my lack of focus. Overall, it created a lot of anxiety in my life, and I wanted a change,” she said. She’s not alone. Do you know that over 17 million people in the U.S. have ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder)? It’s the most common learning and behavioral problem in children and one of the most common problems in adults, leading to job failures, relationship breakups, loneliness, drug abuse and a tremendous sense of underachievement. Although females have ADHD in higher numbers, males are diagnosed three to four times more than females. Missing ADHD in females can have devastating lifelong effects on their health, mood, relationships, career and finances. When you suffer from ADHD in your early childhood, your elementary school years can be very challenging. When you can’t sit still for 20 minutes, you will interrupt others. When you need a tutor in every subject, your self-confidence will decline, and you will wear a façade, but inside you will not like yourself. Nights will be worse. The demons of your scattered brain will emerge at night and you cannot sleep because your brain can’t settle down. Then comes college. At first, you feel courageous that you made it that far. Plus, college will look like a party: lots of freedom and lack of structure. However, this relaxed college environment could be a perfect recipe for disaster. Many people with ADHD drop out before the end of their freshman year. Do you have ADHD? Are you
experiencing short attention span, distractibility, disorganization, restlessness, procrastination, impulse control or lack of self-esteem? You don’t need to continue suffering in silence. With the new brain science discovery, you can teach your brain to re-wire itself. Nothing is hardwired in our brain and we are not stuck with the brain we have today, or the one we were born with. Just know, that in addition to the so-called “shortcomings” associated with ADHD, it’s also a blessing. Those with ADHD are smart, creative, curious and inventive. However, in order to succeed, you need to surround yourself with people who will be able to implement the thousands or millions of ideas you have. To be more successful you need to rewire your brain in a safe and gentle way respecting who you are and at the same time enhancing your performance. Dr. Chavalarias, CEO/President, Inner Optimal Inc. Brain Peak Performance Center, has been helping people retrain their brains for more than 12 years in Encinitas and now can reach anyone in the world with outstanding positive results. She doesn’t use medications or nutrients and the results are fast and long-lasting. To find out how she and her team can help you or your child, call 760633-3328 or visit MyOptimalBrain.com.
