Therapy is miraculous. Transdermal Ozone, also known as Hyperthermic Ozone and Transcutaneous Ozone Therapy, is a method in which Ozone is introduced into the body via the skin while sitting in a hot steam cabinet. As the pores of the skin open as a result of being surrounded by the warm steam, Ozone enters the body transdermally (i.e. via the skin).

How Much Longer Will You Be Okay With SICK CARE!??! With all of the changes in insurance, making your HEALTH CARE work for you is more important than ever.

e currently have SICK CARE, not HEALTH CARE Last year Americans spent $2.8 trillion on healthcare. That is around $8,000 per person. So does this mean that we are all healthy and living well? Absolutely NOT! In fact, we lead the world in heart disease, obesity, and cancer. Astonishingly, 5 out of 6 Americans will be diagnosed with either heart disease or cancer. If we were spending the most money in healthcare and had the healthiest people, maybe it would be worth it. But we are spending the most money AND have the unhealthiest people. In a study by the Journal of the American Medical Association, of 37 different developed countries the United States ranked 37th (dead last) in terms of overall health of the population. SO where are we spending all of this money? When we are sick or in pain, we go to the doctor. We get prescriptions to help cure and prevent illness and pain. What do we do when that medication has a side effect or no longer works? We go back and get more medications for the next side effect. Americans take up 5% of the world’s population, yet we consume 85% of the world’s medications. You would think that if drugs make you healthy then we would be the healthiest nation, and that is far from the truth. We had 1.1 million people die last year because of drugs and these are not street drugs like heroin or other illegal drugs. These are prescription drugs that were prescribed for the right condition, the right amount, the right time. Prescriptions are not the only culprit, a large amount of that money is spent in nursing homes and cancer treatment centers. We have so many sick and ailing people in our population that we are seeing more and more long-term nursing facilities. People may be living longer, but we are not living better. The focus needs to change. We cannot be okay with a health system that has no regard for health. It is time to take the focus off of SICK care and focus on health. TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR HEALTH A lot of people believe that genetics are to blame for the disease we see in our society today, but only 2-5% of degenerative illnesses are actually caused by genetics. So that leaves 95-98% of disease that is caused by lifestyle. The foods we eat, the drinks we drink, and the habits we live are the main cause of the increase in disease. Our offices are focused on HEALTH care. We recognize that health is not just about what you eat and whether or not you exercise. Our offices implement maximized mind, maximized nutrition, maximized nerve supply, maximized

oxygen and lean muscle. We personalize each care plan and work with our patients to establish health and wellness goals that create a healthy lifestyle that maximizes each patients’ quality of life. We offer full health and wellness care that excludes drugs, shots, and harmful combinations or both. Our goal is to make sure our patients live the healthiest life possible. BUT WHAT TRULY SETS US APART FROM ALL OTHER WELLNESS CLINICS It is our dedication to whole health wellness. Our patients are not just adjusted and sent on their way. We spend time focusing on spinal CORRECTION not just spinal alignment. By providing our patients with in office and at home stretching, strengthening, and lifestyle changes, our patients are the healthiest they can possibly be without introducing toxins. It is truly about balance and focus on health. What does CORRECTIVE CARE mean? If your spine and Central Nervous System are “abnormal,” there is a need for corrective chiropractic care. This type of care will restore “normal” spinal position and alignment. By properly restoring normal curves to the spine and aligning the vertebrae, it will eliminate interferences allowing your body to function and heal “normally.” This optimizes your chance to live at 100% of your body’s peak performance. A healthy spine will allow your body to express a normal body temperature, a normal blood pressure, and other measureable norms for the spine itself. There are four primary curves of the spine in the lateral (side) view of the spine. These curves give the spine strength, stability, and flexibility. Any loss of integrity of these curves can affect the function of the nervous system as this is the basis of evolution. These misalignments can put further stress on several aspects of the spine including the soft tissue structures, muscles, ligaments and discs that support the spine and its normal function. Much like braces straighten teeth, it is our aim to restore the proper alignment of your spine. Recent research allows us to now know the measurements and proper alignment of your spine. There is a normal body temperature, a normal blood pressure, and there are measureable norms for the spine. We take the necessary steps to restore the regions of abnormal alignment to normal through whole health wellness. Obtaining the level of normal alignment allows us to cure and prevent disease that otherwise leads to a lifetime of harmful shots and pills. Take the next step and allow your body to function at 100% of peak performance.

Homeopathy Revival Homeopathy was a prevalent mode practiced by physicians in US. In recent times, there has been much confusion and skepticism about it. Yet, there is much interest and a revival in the current era of over prescriptions that lead to various iatrogenic diseases. There is thus a demand for an alternative, safe and effective ways of healing. Homeopathy is a gentle and effective way of stimulating the body’s innate psycho-neuro-immuno-endocrinological system in overcoming disease without any adverse effects.

Dr. Arup Bhattacharya, PhD, DHM has been in practice since 1992. He has been teaching extensively in North America since 2002 at the introductory, advanced level and the practitioner’s level. He has trained many successful homeopaths over the years. His program on introduction and use of homeopathic remedies for various ailments is now been offered at Tampa Bay area from March 14th till 21st and is available to everyone including advanced practitioners and lay person. Dr. Arup did his PhD in Molecular and Cellular Biophysics from SUNY, Buffalo and his postdoctoral training in Translational Pharmacology and Physiology at Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Buffalo.

Do You Suffer Chronic...

ck Ba Pain

Only the Lonely by Justin Martz

f you’re facing Valentine’s Day this year without a romantic partner to help celebrate, you might be tempted to feel sorry for yourself. Don’t.

Committed people tend to view their single friends as less fortunate, which may reinforce feelings of loneliness or inadequacy, according to a study published in the journal Cognition and Emotion at the University of Chicago. “On the scale of everyday life, it is understandable how something as personally aversive as loneliness could be regarded as a blight on human existence.” writes John Cacioppoat and his fellow researchers. Unfortunately it doesn’t stop there. According to other studies in recent years, single people are also often viewed as inherently less sociable and less attractive than their paired peers, and since human susceptibilities to feedback loops are so strong, that perception often becomes the case. We’re all familiar with the popular archetypal figures of the cat-collecting spinster and the poor, perpetual bachelor, both pitiable sorts at best. These unfortunate images are strongly rooted in evolutionary behavior. The very basis of evolutionary process dictates that well-adapted organisms survive over unfit organisms, determined by successful adaptation to changes in environment, including advancement of competing organisms. Since humankind seems to have had a degree of success in adapting to our environment in the last few thousand years, we now purposefully (and often accidentally) evolve our environments, determining success by how we thrive or fail in our own created social spheres. Success is typically determined by how well we navigate our chosen paths, but 8 February 2015 • Tampa Bay Wellness

the markers for success which our forefathers strove after, such as stable families and finances and community acceptance, still figure greatly into our ideas of success. When people decide to forego families, or at the very least put off a committed relationship for various reasons, the evolutionary ideals of the past interfere with the present, and the individual is viewed by the community as “not quite right”. The good news is you’re not alone and you’re also in a great position. The same evolutionary forces that adapt organisms can be harnessed by the individual to create a more fulfilling and purposeful life. As it turns out, that nagging little voice in your head that asks you if there’s something inherently wrong with your alone-ness (not loneliness) can drive you to reevaluate yourself and create change in needed areas. Mindfulness is the engine of deliberate awareness and willed selfevolution, and it can drive our lives in wonderful and challenging directions. Sharing yourself in a committed relationship, like creating a family, is fantastic. But consider the cost. You may have life goals which are more easily accomplished without the distraction of a family. Are you taking advantage of being single by focusing on yourself, or are you focusing instead on what others think about you? Have you looked for examples of single people with happy, productive lives?

Do you live with any or all of the following? • Back pain due to sciatica • Sleepless Nights • Back or neck injury because of an accident • Back or leg pain when seated. • Numbness in your hands or toes • Degenerative Disc Disease The good news is that if you suffer from any of the ailments above we can offer a new solution to your problems which you previously believed you either had to live with or go through painful surgeries to correct.

No Pushing Past the NO

The characteristics that make up grit are not unfamiliar – perseverance, endurance, resilience, excellence and conscientiousness. The sum of these, simply stated, speak to our ability to set the bar high and not give up either in our mind or our actions. This concept struck a cord in me of such truth magnitude that I was unwilling to acknowledge it at first. I have been blessed thus far in my life with personal and career success. However my own greatest challenge is overcoming fear to push myself out of comfortable. Without great adversity acting as a catalyst for growth, it is easy to fall into a pattern of relishing in the low hanging fruit of your natural born talents. This strategy can fill your life and your resume with accomplishments but at the expense of never knowing the view from the tree’s

top branches. For me this manifested in career choices that were “safe” but lacked an outlet for my true passion and service to others. It meant limiting myself to 5K and 10Ks over half or full marathons in order to shy away from the gruel of trailing. It meant shying away from writing when rejection letters arrived instead of using the critique to enhance and grow my writing. What are the areas of your life where you might be reveling in the comfortable rather than showing your grit? Are there places where perseverance could be strengthened? Is there a goal in life you have committed to every New Year but something made you give up on it by June?

Just as January is a time for renewal, resolutions and resolves; February is often a time of inevitable struggle to maintain them. Whether it is a healthier diet and exercise routine, a career change or promotion or simply a commitment to live a more aware life, we can all use a little extra grit to keep us pushing forward when our resolve begins to wear thin. Take time today to evaluate the intentions you set for yourself - a month ago, a week ago or years ago. Close your eyes and visualize achievement of those goals and feel all the pleasure that brings. Take those feelings with you and use them to help you find your own inner grit.

“Overtime grit is what separates fruitful lives form aimlessness.” - John Ortberg For more information on Grit visit: http://www.ted. com/talks/angela_lee_duckworth_the_key_to_ success_grit?language=en#t-131558. 

N E Z O ROS D O

The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines grit as “firmness of character; indomitable spirit.” In context of Duckworth’s work this definition is tweaked to be “perseverance and passion for long-term goals.” Duckworth’s work found that when holding constant characteristics usually associated with success such as intelligence/IQ, talent, and experience there was still a previously unidentifiable character trait that allowed some to capture their goals and others to stagger and fall off the path…a person’s sense of grit.

illiam James, K.E Ericson, and Aristotle, all believed tenacity was one of the most valued virtues. In recent years Dr. Angela Duckworth, a positive psychologist from the University of Pennsylvania brought us a similar notion she calls “grit”.

Humanity,

The World Disciple By Marguerite dar Boggia

umanity, the world disciple, at this time, is being tested and tried. It is at the crossroads on the path of its evolution. A decision must be made as to which direction to take. Will it take the Path that leads to Light and spiritual unfoldment; or will it continue to take the Path that leads to material joys and pleasures? Comparing today’s consciousness of humanity to the past two hundred years, amazes and heartens the Spiritual Guides of the race. Today, especially where there is higher education, people are less racist and more tolerant of religious beliefs. This is especially true in the United States. In the next one hundred years we will see more people tolerant of race, color and creed. Humanity will realize the major causes of disease and the need to transmute its anger, worry, fear, self-pity, selfishness and arrogance. They

will be taught that “energy follows thought.” That thought is like money. How are they going to use that money? They will understand that hatred and wars create a fog of miasma on the subjective or inner planes. It not only harms the immune system, but nature has to restore its equilibrium through hurricanes, earthquakes, tornados, floods, etc. By then, a new economic system will be installed, wherein financial security for ALL, will eliminate many of the ills of society. Countries will be SHARING the resources of the earth. Free energy as developed by Nikola Tesla will replace oil, gas, coal and nuclear power plants. Service to others and brotherhood will be the keynote of the age. Today there is emphasis on eating good food, exercising, and having right attitudes, and relationsonships. That is a good beginning, but when billions of dollars are wrongfully expended on ceaseless wars emitting

Can surgery be avoided? only if changes are immediately made within the next year or two, based on economic, social, and political justice. I doubt if that is possible, because the shareholders of the major Media corporations are beholden to the financial Elite, the “one-percent” of the population. They create and use propaganda to manipulate and control a nation. They have the money to corrupt politicians and the candidates for election. A public, whose emotions of hatred and fear are aroused, further ENSLAVES them. It adds to the miasma on the inner planes. They unwittingly become the tools of the forces of materialism and greed. To retain their control of the world economy, they are capable of throwing the world into a nuclear war. Humanity is crying for a change of the status quo; for peace based on justice and freedom. It is with the heart, that we must see the soul in our brother. We are told that all souls are identical with the Oversoul.2 That means, that when we harm another, we harm ourselves. What we observe in each other, is the personality, (the vehicle for the soul) which is in the process of evolving. Each individual has attained a certain degree of evolutionary development i.e. some in consciousness are children, some teenagers and others are adults. It is a privilege to help

those who are less developed than ourselves. In the end, it is we who are benefited and ready to take our next step on that infinite evolutionary ladder. Thousands of free transmission meditation groups have been formed all around the world, where aspirants on the Path of Light seek to aid humanity and the Head of the Spiritual Hierarchy, known as the Christ to Christians, as the Messiah to the Jews, as the Immam Madhi to the Moslems, as Krishna to the Hindus, and as Maitreya Buddha to the Buddhists, who know the personal name of this Lord. The immediate goal for humanity is to be aware of the SOUND that its words make together with its thoughts and emotions, and to transmute what needs to be changed. When we each, raise our consciousness and transform our lower nature, the whole of society benefits. Marguerite dar Boggia presently serves as Membership Secretary for ISAR, the International Society for Astrological Research. Her goal is to serve humanity and the spiritual Hierarchy of our planet. To that end, she offers free, online, three pages weekly of the Esoteric Studies as was known by Pythagoras i.e. what is the sound that geomentrically forces itself into the vision of the beholder? how is the causal body of the soul formed? To receive these studies, she can be contacted at her website which she created at the age of 90: www.FreePythagorasTeachings.com

Self Love via Detox: Decoding Detox for A Deeper Mind, Body & Soul Connection

s the month of January has passed by, most of our ambitious and well-intended FASTs, Detox programs, and selfimposed restrictions and resolutions come to a vanishing end? Are you taking actions daily to ensure you are moving towards your goal of Healthier Self? Awesome You! (Regardless of your answer, you are still awesome and there is always more room on the AWESOME Train!!!) However, for many who are lost in the current of Detox/Raw Food/ Juice/Smoothie Movements, and overall changing of human evolutionary eating habits, let’s look at detox programs so we understand better some of their key points:

Why Detox? Are you kidding me!? You have got to try it, in order to understand your own need for occasional good internal cleanse. In today’s world we are bombarded with pollutants from chemical particles in our elemental systems (air, water, earth), we are also affected by the foods we voluntarily ingest, sometimes unbeknownst to us. Even those who consider themselves “Clean Eaters”, or “Healthy Eaters” – everyone has potential to benefit from doing some kind of detox program. You basically “de-clog” your body, and some of the side effects are:

• Removing toxins from your body. • Boosting immune system. • Increasing energy level. • I ncreasing your vibration, tuning into your natural cycles. •L osing a few pounds a possibility as well. • I mproving or restoring body’s natural balance (homeostasis). • S trengthening connection between our mind and our physical body. When should I detox? How long? How often? Stop playing the guessing game or jumping on every program that falls in front of your eyes. Pay attention to your intuition. Setting out for a 30 day juicing challenge might be a stretch if you never tried water fast first. Ease yourself and build your stamina towards cleansing and detox programs over time.

1-Day Water Fast This is your basic entry level water with lemon fast. No matter what time you start, just choose 24 hours from the starting point. I usually start at sunset over night to sunset of the following day. Consume distilled water, or other good quality water (Reversed osmosis, spring water,

16 February 2015 • Tampa Bay Wellness

alkaline) with a few drops of lemon. Why with lemon? Lemon alkalizes your digestive track, restoring pH balance within your gut, and your blood too. Make sure the water is at room temperature or warmer, and no ice in water or chilled water from fridge. You want to be gentle on your system and create favorable conditions, mimicking body’s natural homeostatic temperature. Pick a day where you can rest quietly, or spend time outdoors, and not be engaged in prolonged physical activity. It should not be a stressful, busy day at work, etc. Choose your timing wisely, only you know your scheduling patterns. Knowing what to do during the day of the detox, especially for newbies is important. Part of the process is your Emotional detox. When you fast, no matter for how long, I highly recommend spending time outdoors, or where you feel is your “safe heaven”, and I don’t mean the Mall! If you love your lanai, sun room, or local park, go there, if possible. While relaxing your digestion by eliminating “the work load”, you can also relax your mind by eliminating “the work load” aka distractions, expectations, obligations, and other daily “hassles”. Connect to your body and let your mind relax. Take a salt BATH! To “de-clog” means to let go and release all that you no

longer find useful. As you cleanse your digesting track, you cleanse your mind of thoughts, beliefs, and traumatic experiences/situations too. It feels great to release any beliefs, limiting thoughts, and doubts about yourself or anything that you no longer find useful, Truthful or valuable to your true Self Being. Give your internal mental space a “good sweep” and reconnect with your deep Essence, your own Self, your Being-ness. Behind every detox must be a deeply felt intention. Reflect on: I take on this fast to help heal myself , restore my body’s balance, strengthen my overall health, and release (what?) ___Fill in the blank! You are claiming your perfect health (back) by letting go of anything that no longer serves or supports your perfect health and your harmonious Being.

What to expect while fasting on 1-day Water fast Many start a fast without knowing what to look for in terms of body’s language. Looking and feeling inward, “listening” to your body, we are constantly learning how to pay attention to the subtle messages.

To Advertise Call 813-501-4894 • www.tampabaywellness.com

Some are more in tune than others. I certainly took my time in learning more about myself and my body over the last few years. Human Bodies are Absolutely Fascinating! It is a perfect creation. We forgot how to listen, observe, and heal. Read on! So, your energy level might be lower than normal. No brainer! Watch for differences no matter how slight. Mood swings – how often, duration, about what, when you come out of it. Notice your cravings – texture, color, flavor, what exactly, not necessary food… craving to paint, dance, scream. Pay attention to your repetitive thoughts; are they good, bad, ugly, and clear house one thought at a time. Watch your mental clarity and acuteness… are you remembering numbers quickly, recalling information with ease, etc. You get the idea! What about your focus? Are you staying on task, focused on present moment or drifting to your mental “to do” list? Know that all might be foggy! Your best remedy for most of the physical and emotional side effects caused by a detox program, is to be outdoors, within Nature, where it is comfortable (not too hot, not too cold, wet, or windy) and you can be peaceful. Match your outside surrounding to the peace you wish to experience within you. Within seasonality, picnics are great, and so are back yard hammocks. Wear comfy shoes (optional), wear shades. Wearing white color clothing, made out of natural fabric might also be helpful. In some Yoga traditions it is taught that white color repels negative energy from your energetic field up to 7 feet. Why not create a little self-bubble and get some RnR

(Rest ‘n Relaxation). It gets better, read on! You can use essential oils to create a relaxing atmosphere, or help with headaches that might take place due to (most likely) low blood sugar levels. You might have dizziness. When fasting, just slow down your pace. Go about your day as if you are in a slow motion movie. Most importantly be very present in every moment. Look for your blessings and abundance. Everyone’s reaction to fasting and detox program varies, just like finger prints. You are THAT Unique, on a cellular level! Know that your journey is just the Perfect one for you!

How to ease off or come off the fast After 24 hours or so of your 1 day water fast comes to an end, the very first thing you need to do is to drink hot beverage such as tea, or warmed distilled water with grated ginger that helps prepare your digestive track for “work”. I add a few drops of lemon juice in my tea (organic green decaf preferred) and a half a tea spoon of local, raw honey (optional). If you are not a fan of hot tea, start gently with an Organic clear broth either chicken stock or vegetable stock. You can put some spinach leaves into a hot soup bowl and it will wilt and soften. When coming of the fast, no matter how long or short… you don’t want to load up your digestive track with

www.tampabaywellness.com • To Advertise Call 813-501-4894

heavy foods such as steak, or chicken or pasta, or foods high in fat, even good fat, or lots of raw veggies. Any food that takes too long to digest, pretty much most groups: protein, fats and carbs would be better introduced in smaller quantities very little at a time but not on the first meal following fasting. You might want to have a cup of steamed beets, as you final “sweep”, because beets are good for cleansing. You may also have steamed asparagus, or other fibrous greens. I recommend steaming your vegetable to help soften the outside skin of the vegetable, so it’s a bit easier on digestion that is trying to regenerate and heal itself. You might ask if roasting vegetables be okay, and my reasoning is: roasting withdraws moisture from vegetables and after a fast, you want veggies with water content preserved. Another option is to eat a warm soup with plenty of veggies cut up. Remember to chew your first meal (and hopefully most of your meals) very slowly… really, slow down and savor each bite and chew 32 times. Yeah! I know – who’s got the time for this?! Try 15 times then! Start small and slow down! It might do your working Mind awesome miracles. After your meal, about 30 minutes later, you may have another glass of warm water with lemon or decaf tea of your choice with your flavorings

(such as ginger, honey, lemon, cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, etc.) Remember after a full day of rest, your intestines, like muscles have rested, so easing them gently back to digestion process is optimum, and you experience little to no digestive discomfort after eating your first meal. The following morning meal, should be light such as 2 egg whites with a ½ cup of spinach with avocado. You may also try a plant or pea protein shake (without added artificial ingredients, Non GMO) with water. I can’t stress this enough, please start small and listen to your body. You don’t have to do it alone, pair up with a friend.

ood is Love so feeding children healthy meals and snacks is important for their growth and development. No population of human beings has ever been exposed to so many chemicals in their lifestyle as we experience today.

Every week a new revelation about our food rocks our understanding about what is healthy. A recent monthly magazine drew attention to the arsenic added to chicken feed which causes learning and cognition problems. Rice is also a source of arsenic, especially if it is grown in Texas or imported from Asian countries. California grown rice has the lowest arsenic levels according to a an assessment at ABC Labs in Gainesville, FL. For the past 5 years honey imported from Asia has proven to be adulterated with corn sweeteners and/or pesticides. The Institute

of Food Technology ha sreported on this fraud at their annual meetings for the past 3 years in an effort to alert food processors. Some “honey” imported from China had no pollen residue so definitely not produced by bees. Five food rules for parents wanting to provide healthy food for their children are: 1. Chose local- anything from China should be avoided until quality standards are improved

Sometimes we know what we want, but very few times we know how to reach our destination and sometimes we think we know what we want, but a little guidance might help you realize and understand that perhaps something might not be working out for you, because it is the universe’s way of telling us: “this isn’t in your best interest or highest good”. There are no wrong choices; we reach our destination in our own way and time. Divine guidance is always there waiting for you to ask for help, giving you clarity and guiding you though your journey.

Journey By Insight D

id you ever wonder what goes on inside of a psychic’s mind? Do they really see and hear spirit?

As a 5th generation psychic, Jeanette receives her messages in several forms such as: hearing, seeing and feeling which is what is known as Clairvoyant, Clairsentient and Clairaudient. These messages will tell you what you need to know at

the present time to help guide you along the way. They will assist you with the blocks you have to face or remove so you can achieve and get to that divine place we all want to reach. Inner knowledge that comes from a much higher power, universal guidance, spirit or whatever each one of us as individuals believes in, is there to guide you

22 February 2015 • Tampa Bay Wellness

on your journey bringing you insightful messages that will assist you on how to reach your highest good and continue on your divine path. How to reach your destination is the key. By being open to the messages that will be given to you, you will be guided in seeing the blocks and bumps along the road that need to be faced or removed to achieve and get to that divine place we all want to reach.

We always want to be at our destination, but forget about the journey along the way and that what keeps us stuck from reaching the destination. Messages through Jeanette may come in many ways ranging from warnings, predictions, making you aware of the fears that are holding you back, unlocking past blocked emotions, messages from past loved ones and/or our spirit guides and protectors, and so much more. Jeanette’s readings will tell you what you need to know at the present time to be able to move forward – whatever that may be.  Jeanette Kline is Clairvoyant, Psychic, Hypnotherapist (Past Life Regressions) and LaHoChi Practitioner. (Light Body Activation/Angel Light Healing). As a certified LaHoChi practitioner and a certified Hypnotherapist her readings can also be incorporated hand in hand with past life regressions to uncover the blocks from other lives that are still holding you back today, by releasing past blocks and activating the most affected chakra’s! Jeanette has also been actively involved in cold cases in the search for missing people, working with cold case units, FBI, police departments, search and rescue and missing people organizations. She is available in person for readings at The Metaphysical Store in Wesley Chapel, Fortunate Changes (813) 973-7407 or by email FortunateChanges@gmail. com.Take the journey into your soul, let me be your guidance, the choice is yours.

At our soul’s creation, we have our counterpart, which is similar to the yin/yang symbol. They come out of the same light sphere. When this light sphere descended to Earth, one half assumes the positive or masculine polarity and the other the negative or female polarity. Only you and your Twin Flame have this unique pattern of energy. The vibration of each soul is the exact duplicate of the other Twin Flame. Twin Flames have a purpose together. There is something they are meant to do jointly that they could do better by putting their energies together. The more you move out of the out-dated vibration of duality or separateness, you will transition into a deeper heart space of higher vibratory awareness of oneness consciousness and feel joy and bliss. In other words, you become aware that we are all connected, and this Twin Flame connection is the most sacred union. Ego and blame fall aside. We also have Soulmates. Those we have had past lives and contracts with in order to evolve our spirit and assist in raising the vibration of the planet. Soulmates always serve a purpose for being in your life. They also help point out areas in your

relationship patterns that you can grow from. Soulmates teach us how to set our boundaries. You have many Soulmates with sometimes one being your dominant Soulmate contracted for a period of time. They are preparing you for your Twin Flame that is your destiny. Growth comes from all Soulmate interactions. Your Twin Flame is the exact counterpart of you created by Source. Reuniting reconnects you to your Source energy bringing about a total completion of the Divine Masculine and the Divine Feminine. They can be the opposite gender, depending on what you came here to experience in this lifetime. Meeting them causes you to awaken. It is your most intense spiritual love. Your old priorities shift as they don’t seem important anymore. Your senses are heightened. Everything seems alive and new. Are you ready to allow yourself your Twin Flame? Most people are taught that they are not good enough so they run when encountered with their Twin Flame. You know this person loves you, but now you are confused. If you feel you had a Twin Flame connection and they have run away, it is because of Fear. Fear is the opposite of love, not hate. Your partner may be running because you are their mirror image. There are parts of them they don’t like deep down. They may feel you will reject them eventually, just like he (inter-

changeably she) is rejecting himself. There may be a lack of self-love and the don’t feel they deserve you, the most amazing love he has experienced of their lives. He may be fearful of a love so intense being taken away, fear of being consumed by you and uncomfortable with the intense longing that can be painful when you are away from them. Parts of him, he needs to heal are rising to the surface alongside the blissful love. It’s allconsuming and may be hard to process. Refusing or blocking his emotions may help him be in control of this situation that is guided from the outside. From time-to-time he wants to feel the intense love again and that is why he comes back around. Then the cycle repeats. Are you ready to meet your Twin Flame? Are you clear about what your issues are? Are you willing for someone else to have their issues. Our spirit’s our constantly evolving. Nobody can fix your issues, you have to be able to grow and learn on your own. The more evolved you are when you meet your Twin Flame, the more evolved they will be. This may mean that you have another Soulmate relationship to work through first. When ready, allow yourself to have this person in your life. They are looking for you because of WHO YOU ARE. If you need to change to be with someone, then you are not who they are looking for. Finding your Twin Flame doesn’t solve your problems, but it can help you learn your lessons that you are meant to learn in this life. They are your equals; your true partners. They call you on your stuff. If you are in a controlling relationship where one person controls the situation over another, it is not a primary soulmate relationship. Then you don’t respect that person totally. If you are looking for someone to make you happy, it is not going to work. Make yourself happy first. A real partnership takes inner strength. The Twin Flame union helps channel love to the planet. Your Divine Love is used for compassion and good toward others. To align with your Twin Flame, you must be

aware of self. Being loving and compassionate towards yourself sends your Twin Flame the message you are ready to meet them. Know your true heart’s desire and this union will graciously flow towards you. If things get worse when you connect with and potential Twin Flame like your car breaks down or you have a run of bad luck, this is a false Twin Flame. You’ll know for certain if the relationship can at times be one-sided and there aren’t signs of appreciation in the relationship. Once you have found your Twin Flame, there still may be work to do as you go through stages in the relationship. These stages can be similar to below. Stage 1: Through synchronicity you meet, and you’ve felt you met before. Your heart chakras both open and merge into a greater union. There will be a time of accelerated spiritual understanding. Stage 2: Sometimes ego re-emerges, you start judging your relationship based on what you think relationships are supposed to be. This stems from an outdated belief system. Your doubts may creep in. Clear your doubts during this phase. Stage 3: Shedding yourself (ego) can lead to anxiety as your own stuff comes up. Forgivenesss, confessions, bonding and learning more about each other assist this phase. Stage 4: Surrender occurs in the union. Sometimes one partner needs space to evolve while the other twin holds space for their beloved. Stage 5: Both parties are awakened and unconditional love open their hearts. Maggie Batt offers a guided meditation to discover your twin flame. See more on her website at www.wheelsoflight.org under Intuitive Sessions.

“Abhyanga is the act of anointing the body with oil through loving hands.”

Ayurveda & Love ABHYANGA Self care oil massage

Abhyanga is an Ayurvedic oil massage; traditionally using a combination of oils and herbs specific to your individual needs, and can refer to a daily self-massage technique. The main purpose of Abhyanga is to enhance the flow of vital energy (prana) by anointing your body with oil (sneha), while being attentive and loving. The Sanskrit word sneha translates as both “oil” and “love”. Abhyanga allows the subtle nature of the oil/love to move through the channels of the body and find their way into the deeper layers of bodily tissue. Ayurveda explains that being saturated with oil in abhyanga is comparable to being drenched with love. Similar to the experience of being deeply loved, abhyanga can provide a profound sense of comfort and strength.

Preparing for Abhyanga Start by brushing your skin with a natural dry brush or coarse washcloth to remove dead skin cells. Wash and dry your face, hands and feet. Warm your Abhyanga oil. Take a few deep breaths and become fully present. Rub palms together to stimulate heat and energy in your hands, and you are ready to begin the applying the oil.

The Ritual of Abhyanga As a daily ritual of self-care, Abhyanga is traditionally done

before bathing in the early morning to help remove toxins from your body that have accumulated through the night and to prepare your body and mind for the day ahead. Most important is that it is done at a time that you are not rushed and can maintain an attitude of nurturing attention toward yourself.

The Oils for Abhyanga Choose natural, organic, cold pressed oils available in health food stores and the health food section of your grocery store. Warm oil is recommended as it is comforting and can penetrate the layers of the skin better. You can warm your Abhyanga oil by immersing the bottle in a bowl of hot water.

Classical Technique for Abhyanga Use straight strokes over long bones and muscles and clockwise circular strokes over your joints, chest and abdomen. Use the ball and palm of your hands and the length of your fingers to apply the oil and perform the massage. Don’t let “technique” get in the way of your intuitive and loving touch. The key to Abhyanga is to remain centered, connect your breath with the movement of your hands and give thanks for your body, especially the areas where you may have issues.

Ayurveda is India’s ancient Science of Life. In developing this science the observers of the known world, the Rishis, categorized every aspect of human health, well being and longevity. Their observations included the elements of happiness and it has long been held that the basis of all happiness is love. Love has three dimensions: Self Love; Romantic Love; and Divine Love. As modern pilgrims on our varied paths of fulfillment, sooner or later we confront the realization that Self Love is essential for wellbeing. In Ayurveda self care is the process by which one expresses one’s love for one’s self. The way you go about your day, the foods you eat, the company you keep; the exercise you practice are components of how much value you place on you. Ayurveda, as the Science of Life gives us a complete system of self care based on achieving balance. When you put yourself first in care you are expressing love of self. When you are in balance love is most available to you. Romantic love is the basis of the most longing in our culture. This longing is not unique to this time as the themes of operas and classic literature reflect. Most popular music is focused on themes of romantic love. Our culture has an almost insatiable appetite for dramas that express the seeking and winning and the losing of romantic love. Romantic love is the juice that lights the fire of committed relationships but it is not possible to sustain romantic love without Self Love as a component. Divine Love is pure love. For love to work at any level Divine love must be present. Divine love is either the love of the Divine or the

love that dwells in the depths of your heart and transcends all the noise of discomfort and illness and distrust and hate on Earth. For one to be available to Divine love one must first love Self and commune with the Divine within. It is not possible to love yourself when you are distracted by imbalance. Imbalance is easy to achieve in that your Doshas are susceptible to changing based on any number of factors. A cold day will make a Vata person uncomfortable or even miserable. It is difficult to be loving when you are not up to par. A hot environment can make a Pitta person angry; no one wants to be around an angry person. Kapha people, when out of balance, will withdraw from social environments and make themselves unavailable to loving. Ayurveda is a tool for health. Health is the gateway to everything good that the Earth and Universe has to offer. Ayurveda is based on love and love is… DENISE O’DUNN, president and founder of Balance & Bliss® Inc., is a certified Ayurvedic Practitioner, Licensed Massage Therapist (ma58502) and Yoga Teacher, who began studying Yoga in 1970 and received certification as a Yoga Instructor in 1985.

It is helpful to be a bit more flexible as multitasking tends to be on the rise. You can work to blend some elements that may seem to be at odds but really are just different points of view. Sensitivity to those around you leads you to make better decisions. The complexities of human nature can teach you much.

Community participation is at the forefront. Activities that you hold near and dear are the glue that supports your bonds with those of like mind. Establish and strengthen your community and social links over this time. Get out and play!

Make an effort to nurture the relationships that have come recently into your life. When you do activities together that you have in common it strengthens not only the community at its most basic level but provides a sense of connection and fulfillment.

Time to smile more, reach out more and enjoy new experiences. Break out of a few more molds and engage in a deeper level of relating. As you give and receive more warmth don’t be surprised when things start to glow.

Time to do some shopping for items, elements to refine and perk up your space as well as yourself. It is about increasing substance in a way that supports and uplifts your life and lends confidence, comfort and beauty. Make appointments that are overdue with health and exercise as a priority. You will be so glad you did!

It is time to improve your skills in areas where you may be weak. You have the strength and the will this year to overcome personality characteristics that could be perceived as detrimental to your life direction. Make plans to support and uplift areas that correlate to your goals and desires.

Transcend any inner or outer conflict by embracing and holding on to the softer and more perceptive side of your nature. No one needs to be checkmated. Allow more play, seek to understand the others point of view and negotiate where you can. Much can be gained, particularly peace of mind.

A revelation is just around the corner. The development of trust and the ability to sustain that trust is generally rooted within at a very deep level. The pro and con mind has to be curtailed as you listen to your inner voice. Take the actions that support what you already know to be true.

Take some steps in your personal development this month. Take some courses or do some short term travel. Look over that bucket list and cross at least one thing off or make the plans to do so. It is time for some fresh new challenges!

Desires are running the show and yours are asking to be identified. Spend some time thinking about what you might like to see happen over the next couple of years. Begin to strategize a plan. Get unfinished business complete. There is going to be a lot going on!

Within the depths of you are some root feelings and emotions that need to be brought to the surface and released. Like a spring loaded device, you are getting ready to spring to a greater sphere relative to action, vision, ideas and purpose. Go over elements a second time to make sure all is complete.
