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.

S

cientists have been predicting global warming, animal extinction, water shortages, housing shortages and related human health issues for quite some time.

The beat goes on and yet most of us dance to the beat of another drummer or we choose to not dance at all. We show up when we have to. Hurricane Michael was ranked one of the top four strongest hurricanes to hit the U.S., becoming the most intense since 1898. A record toxic red tide just consumed the entire bottom half of Florida.

I’m definitely a NatGeo junkie and I’ve exhausted the Blue Planet series. I am also a movie and Netflix junkie, including not only documentaries but also series that discuss topics that used to be taboo in public. Recently I watched Atypical. For those of you who are unfamiliar with this show, it’s about a teen on the autism spectrum. The main character, Sam, has an all-consuming interest in Antarctica and the Arctic, and all the habitats, especially penguins. The show has so many meanings. I, too, am consumed with the animal world and how it relates to humans. Perhaps I am on the spectrum. Perhaps many of us are to some degree. The show has many pros and cons. We can safely say that it does not accurately portray all the symptoms and scenarios of autism. Producing a movie is much like publishing this magazine. We have to make it entertaining (add humor and pretty faces) to reach our audience and yet include truth, too. In lieu of picking apart the cons, let’s look at the pros. The show depicts all kinds of relationship issues like enabling, entitlement, bullying and parenting. It’s free therapy! I personally find Sam’s monotone honest delivery a breath of fresh air. I am a truth seeker, a visionary and alternative anything comes easy to me.

A slice of pie is better than no pie at all. I urge us all to prepare a pie of gratefulness and kindness and share it with the world this holiday season.

Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow. ~Melody Beattie

Natural Awakenings Family of Franchises Keeps Growing

N

atural Awakenings Publishing Corp. (NAPC) welcomed two new publishers to a recent training session at the corporate headquarters in Naples, Florida. The NAPC staff spent several days with these entrepreneurs, discussing the ins and outs of publishing a new Natural Awakenings edition in Pittsburgh and taking over publication of an existing Natural Awakenings magazine in Northern and Central New Mexico.

Founded by Chief Executive Officer Sharon Bruckman with a single edition in Naples in 1994, Natural Awakenings has grown to become one of the largest, free, local, healthy living publications in the world, serving nearly 3 million readers each month via more than 70 magazines published in cities across the U.S. and in Puerto Rico.

“Our devoted family of publishers, supported by advertisers, informs readers of many leading-edge national and local resources that offer paths to a happier, healthier and longer life,” says Bruckman. “Our active and growing readership has helped increase interest in naturally healthy living that has influenced mainstream America and is beneficial for people and the planet.”

ancho Santa Fe Business and Professional Women’s Association (RSFBPW) is sad to share that a dear member of their group, Betty Potter Englishbee, passed away on October 8 while on vacation with her family. She was the heart of this wonderful women’s group for over 30 years.

Association member, Dr. Deena Stacer, shares, “Betty was the hardest working board member we have or will ever have. She was always up late getting things ready the night before our luncheons, she constantly took care of so many projects and details without telling us how much work everything really took.

Betty was the one who always made sure we were notified so we paid our dues and made sure our pictures and contact information was correct in the directory and the website. Betty was the one member who had the most knowledge about our association, our members, and the long history of our group. She always had a smiling face for each of us, a calmness she offered and a warm greeting. She will be missed by every one of our members at our ongoing luncheons. RSFBPW will never be the same without Betty Potter Englishbee!”

Raw Fruit and Veggies Key to Mental Health Raw fruit and vegetables are better for mental health than canned, cooked or otherwise processed produce, report researchers from New Zealand’s University of Otago. Their survey of more than 400 young adults from their country and the U.S., published in Frontiers in Psychology, found a correlation between eating raw produce and measures of psychological well-being, positive mood and life satisfaction.

“The cooking and processing of produce likely limits the delivery of nutrients that are essential for optimal emotional functioning,� says co-author Tamlin Conner, Ph.D. The top 10 raw foods for mental health are carrots, bananas, apples, dark leafy greens, grapefruit, lettuce, other citrus, berries, cucumbers and kiwis.

Omegas for a Healthy Immune System

by Candy Vidales We’ve all heard how good omegas 3, 6 and 9 are for our health and wellness.

Omega fatty acids are important for all systems of the body to function normally including the respiratory system, circulatory system, and all our organs. Omegas are also good for keeping the immune system healthy.

Omega-6 fatty acids combined with omega-3 fatty acid produces many of the health benefits that omegas are known for, but the trickiest part about consuming fatty acids is making sure the ratio is right. You should be eating about twice as much omega-6 as omega-3, so that your omega-6 to omega-3 ratio is 2-to-1.

Omegas are also beneficial for keeping skin healthy. While there are many amazing facial treatments available to help care for your skin, healing always starts from the inside out. Be sure that omegas are part of your at-home skincare regimen to help bring out the best version of you.

Candy Vidales is the owner of Skincare by Candy in Carlsbad. She specializes in advanced skincare in acne, peels, rosacea, age management, non-surgical facelifts and micro-current.

Supercharge Your Immune System

Natural Ways to Stay Healthy

by Kathleen Barnes

L

ike many other health conditions, challenges to our immune systems are on the rise. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that 26.5 million adults and kids have asthma, 50 million have allergies and up to 20 percent get the flu each year.

Catching a cold is common, with U.S. adults generally coping with two or three a year and children about twice as many.

As many as 50 million Americans suffer from autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, celiac and lupus, costing $100 billion a year to treat, which is nearly twice the amount spent on cancer care, according to the American Autoimmune Related Diseases Association. Initial statistics released 20 years ago estimated that 9 million Americans had autoimmune diseases; a five-fold increase since then illustrates the magnitude of the problem.

People that are free of some degree

of immune system dysfunction are relatively uncommon.

Identified Culprits

“We are absolutely seeing a rise in immune disorders,” says Michael T. Murray, a doctor of naturopathy in Lyons, Colorado, and author of Chronic Candidiasis: Your Natural Guide to Healing with Diet, Vitamins, Minerals, Herbs, Exercise and Other Natural Methods. “Many factors are responsible for the increase.” He cites the most notable as the widespread use of antibiotics and pesticides; dietary factors, including too much sugar; decreased intake of essential vitamins and minerals; overconsumption of calories in general; lifestyle factors like not getting enough sleep or exercise; excessive alcohol; stress; and exposure to cigarette smoke.

“The microbiome—the bacterial structure that supports a strong immune system—is largely inherited from the

mother during a vaginal birth,” says Sayer Ji, of Miami, Florida, founder of GreenMedInfo.com, sponsor of the 2017 Immune Defense Summit and a member of the National Health Federation’s board of governors. “The rising number of Caesarean sections, at nearly one-third of all U.S. births, up from 18 percent in 1997, deprives infants of those naturally occurring bacteria, and can result in immune deficiencies at an early age.”

Low-level chronic stress of the kind that occurs in everyday modern life is a leading underlying factor in immune system compromise, says natural health and healing expert Dr. Deepak Chopra, of Carlsbad, California, author of The Healing Self: A Revolutionary New Plan to Supercharge Your Immunity and Stay Well for Life. Along with emotional stress, he points to any kind of inner or outer challenge that pulls us off center.

Everyone experiences some stress every day; when unrelieved, it’s been widely shown to have a huge negative impact on our health. “Imbalance can be negative or positive, and so can stress,” says Chopra.

“Winning the lottery is just as stressful as going through a divorce. So the challenge isn’t to achieve static balance, but to successfully thrive in stressful surroundings.”

Internal Communiqués

Medical science now generally agrees that the greatest part of the immune system resides in the gut. “We need those trillions of bacteria that live in the digestive tract. Without them, we are unable to defend ourselves from all types of assaults, including the autoimmune diseases, in which the body turns upon itself,” says Ji.

“The immune system lines the large and small intestines,” says Dr. Susan Blum, of Rye Brook, New York, author of The Immune System Recovery Plan: A Doctor’s 4-Step Program to Treat Autoimmune Disease. “The microbes in the gut lining speak to the immune system. Anything that alters the microbes in negative ways—like antibiotics or viral illness, among others—can also negatively alter the immune system.”

Unavoidable Toxin

We can’t avoid the toxic exposure that underlies much of the immune dysfunction we are experiencing today, says Wendy Myers, a functional diagnostic nutritionist in Los Angeles, California, and author of Limitless Energy: How to Detox Toxic Metals to End Exhaustion and Chronic Fatigue. “Toxins, especially heavy metals like lead and mercury, are in the air, water and soil. Since we can’t escape them, we need to know how they are affecting us and work to neutralize them.”

Experts agree that immune challenges can be neutralized and overcome with the right diet and lifestyle, stress management and appropriate supplements to restore and maintain the whole system balance needed to flourish in a world of our own making that stresses us on every level.

The Right Food

Eliminating wheat and dairy can end half of current immune system dysfunction through helping to repair the microbiome and healing the immune system, Ji believes. As one example, “If my mom had known I was allergic to cow’s milk when I was a child, I wouldn’t have suffered for 20 years with bronchial asthma,” he says.

An anti-inflammatory diet also speeds gut healing and strengthens the immune system, says Blum. Highlights of her program for a basic clean-up include eliminating anything white (sugar and all products made with flour); eating quality fats

The Right Supplements

Multivitamins: “High-quality vitamin and mineral supplements are foundational to immune health,” Murray says.

“Vitamins C, E and B and selenium are especially important.”

Digestive enzymes: “Digestive

enzymes are key to restoring gut health, and thereby healing the immune system.

They’re useful in reducing immunemediated inflammation in autoimmune disorders,” Murray explains.

Australian research from the Garvan Institute of Medical Research confirms that supporting the immune system helps heal inflammation and autoimmune diseases. Instead, these are commonly treated with immune system suppressants that leave the patient with diminished resistance to other diseases.

Raw foods, especially pineapple and papaya, are good sources of digestive enzymes.

They’re also available as supplements.

Prebiotics and probiotics: Prebiotics, plant fibers that ferment in the colon helping to increase desirable bacteria in the gut, and probiotics, live beneficial bacteria, help restore balance in the microbiome, effectively feeding and strengthening the immune system. Myers suggests that declining levels of friendly bacteria in the gut may actually mark the onset of chronic degenerative disease.

Vitamin D: Several studies, including

one from Israel, have shown that people with the highest vitamin D levels have the lowest number of upper respiratory infections. “To ensure optimal vitamin D status, many health advocates, myself included, are recently advocating daily dosages of 2,000 to 5,000 international units (IU), even in apparently healthy adults,” Murray says.

Beta glucan: Beta glucans are polysaccharides; soluble fiber naturally occurring in the cell walls of grains, bacteria, yeast, algae and fungi. Natural sources include oats, barley, seaweed, and shitake and reishi mushrooms. In supplements, look for products extracted by fermentation if grain or yeast is a concern. These sugars are known to help prevent and shorten durations of colds and flu and provide relief for allergies and sinus congestion, and may help regulate an overactive immune response in cases of autoimmune disorders.

Both internal and external factors can affect us all the way to the cellular level. Chopra says, “You are talking to your genes all the time, and what you say affects every cell in your body. Through lifestyle choices, you can make healing decisions rather than damaging ones.”

(cold-pressed vegetable oils, nuts and seeds); protein (grass-fed beef, organic and free-range poultry, wild game and wild-caught fish); organic fruits and vegetables as much as possible and fermented foods daily; limiting and preferably eliminating dairy; and reading labels and banishing additives, chemicals and processed foods.

According to CDC statistics, almost everyone has some level of immune dysfunction, so this clean-up diet will benefit most of us, Blum says. After a basic regimen of three weeks or longer, she recommends exploring an elimination and challenge diet in which gluten, dairy, corn, soy and eggs are all eliminated for three weeks. People with arthritis should also eliminate nightshades like tomatoes and potatoes. “Then add back in the eliminated foods one at a time and carefully note the body’s reaction. It’s not that hard to get a clear picture of what aggravates inflammation such as arthritis pain,” Blum says.

The Real Differences Between Medical Science and Natural Health

T

by Karl E. Humiston

here are many differences between the medical science and natural health worlds. The first is a deep difference in how we come to know what we know—what the philosophers refer to as “epistemology”. In the world of medical science, it is believed that knowledge and truth result from rational deductive theory and logic—mental processes. In the world of natural health, it is believed that knowledge and truth result from observation and experience—sensory processes.

At Harvard Medical School, I was taught that obesity results from eating more calories than one burns up, a belief based on logical scientific theories of indestructibility of energy and matter. When silly patients told me that they cut calories way down but did not lose weight, I replied that this could not be, because I had been trained—or brainwashed—to believe that theory, no matter what was experienced. Then, in 1976, I cleaned up my diet after the manner of clinical ecology, an unorthodox approach to food allergies, and then immediately lost weight.

Many of the approximately 3,000 patients we saw in our holistic alternative medical practice in New York City from 1980 to 1988 were overweight, and all of them were restored to normal weight following successful detoxification, without cutting calories. Our experience told us that our bodies lay on more fat when it is needed to sequester toxins, which protects us from diseases that would result from those toxins being loose in our bodies.

The second is a profoundly different focus or direction when deciding how to treat patients. The dominant direction

16

San Diego Edition

NA-SD.com

in the world of medical science is best illustrated by the process that leads to FDA approval of a drug treatment. The core of the language used in their approval is that the drug is “proven effective in the treatment of (a specific disease).” Each disease is defined as a combination of specific elements (such as “hearing voices” for schizophrenia), and a drug is considered as proven effective in the treatment of a disease if clinical research shows that, in at least two-thirds of patients tested, it causes a favorable change in one or more of the elements that define the disease.

For instance, if a new drug is shown to stop two-thirds of patients from hearing voices, it has been proven effective in the treatment of schizophrenia, no matter what else it does to those patients, who may then sit, sedated, staring into space. The dominant focus or direction in the world of natural health is not how a proposed treatment affects a conceptual thing called a disease, but how it affects you, the patient, a real person.

Understanding the surprisingly strong opposition to natural health means understanding the workings of the world

of medical schools, where the generally accepted scientific version of truth is taught. For a member of the faculty of those schools to advance his academic career, he must repeatedly publish results of new scientific research. Research projects cost a lot of money, so they must depend on grants. Some grant money comes from the government, but most of it comes from the pharmaceutical companies.

While treatment approaches flowing from medical science tend to focus on counteracting something wrong, some pathology, treatment approaches of natural health tend to focus on replacing what is missing, as with nutritional supplements, or restoring what has been lost, as with the Rolfing work which I now do, which restores one’s body to the more perfect pattern of organization which we were given in the beginning. “Touch” therapies, in particular, offer what science or technology cannot offer: the conveying, from within one person to another, of a healthier pattern of organization and functioning. Science is profoundly impersonal; the intense personal experience

referred to in that last sentence is more in the way of natural healing, especially touch therapies.

Still, there are always a few medical scientists whose personal passion to do real good for people manages to survive in the academic environment. My favorite is Gustavo Bounous, M.D., the discoverer of the nutritional product Immunocal, which restores our immune systems to the optimal state of functioning found in infants receiving human milk. Read more about his story in Breakthrough in Cell-Defense by Dr. Allan C. Somersall.

Shortly before he died, I went to Montreal just to meet Dr. Bounous; it was worth making the trip just to feel his special spirit.

Give Rover a Rubdown

Massage Keeps a Dog at Peak Health

by Karen Shaw Becker

“

nimals have performed massage on themselves or others since the dawn of time through natural grooming behaviors,” reports the Northwest School of Animal Massage, in Vashon, Washington. “Any animal’s quality of life can be enhanced with massage.”

Therapeutic Massage Results

“Maintenance massage is great for helping your pet stay at their peak level of health for as long as possible. It’s also a great tool for monitoring and early detection,” says Kim Tews, a certified small animal massage practitioner located near Portland, Oregon.

Jonathan Rudinger, a registered nurse, licensed massage therapist and authority on canine massage in Toledo, Ohio, explains that massage supports oxygen exchange, helping animals to breathe more deeply, and even encourages coughing to loosen phlegm and debris in the lungs.

Increasing both blood and lymphatic circulation is another benefit. “Manual lymphatic drainage massage is a good immune booster, and benefits pets of all breeds and ages,” says Tews. Massage shortens postoperative recovery time for pets and helps decrease inflammation and pain while lowering blood pressure and working to normalize breathing patterns and digestion.

For dogs with arthritis, Rudinger says that massage works to increase the natural fluids within the dog’s body, along with improving lymph and blood circulation and hormone and energy flow.

When it comes to sporting events and intense recreation, massage can be used to increase blood flow to muscles beforehand and reduce muscle soreness afterward.

Massage is a comfort for beloved dogs receiving treatment for a terminal illness or palliative care. The practice can also reduce the need for pain medication, decrease metabolic end products in tissues, ease constipation and feelings of anxiety and isolation, and instill greater peace.

Behavioral Results

Massage therapist Michelle Rivera with the Healing Oasis Wellness Center, in Sturtevant, Wisconsin, remarks in the journal Integrative Veterinary Care, “It was in China that I learned that many behavioral problems can also be alleviated or eliminated with the addition of massage therapy.

In my own practice, the majority of issues I successfully work with using massage are behavior problems and seizures.”

Highly sensitive animals may find that therapeutic massage makes being touched more tolerable. Rudinger explains that it can clear physiological energy blocks. His approach with dogs is to work on the stomach energy meridian, which flows down around the mouth, down both sides of the midline and underneath the abdominal side of the body. It ends up around the anus, beneath the animal’s tail.

As the meridian is associated with the emotional brain or limbic system, working on this area is particularly useful for dogs that are fear-biters, food- or dog-aggressive, have separation anxiety or

problems with their gastrointestinal tract.

Generally speaking, dog massage can be a useful tool for stress relief and relaxation.

Find the Right Expert

An integrative veterinarian can provide advice and recommend an experienced area canine massage therapist to treat an animal’s specific need. At-home or in-clinic sessions may last from 30 to 80 minutes.

Having a family member massage a pet can add calming and bonding benefits,

especially in palliative care. A workshop or continuing education course will teach basic to advanced hands-on massage skills.

Offering the benefits of therapeutic massage to a dog is one of the greatest gifts we can give to support their happiness and quality of life. It can also work wonders for cats.
