Citrus Pear makes healthy meal prep easy, fun By Angie Erickson

As a Registered Dietitian and busy mom of 3, McKenzie Rockwood knows the nightly stress of getting a healthy meal on the table. That’s why she came up with “Citrus Pear”. Citrus Pear dinners are healthy, simple, flavorful crock pot or pressure cooker meals made with real ingredients. All dinners are delicious, family friendly and suitable for cardiac diets, weight loss and diabetes meal plans. Meals come with nutrition facts and cooking instructions. No need to worry about menu planning, prep or clean up. Just show up for a stress free class (about two hours) to assemble meals and take them home to your freezer. Citrus Pear currently offers classes in: Boise, Rexburg, Rigby, Idaho Falls, Cache Valley, North Salt Lake, Riverton, Pleasant Grove, Spanish Fork, St. George, Cedar City, Heber, Holladay, Kaysville, North Ogden, Customers attend a class and make 10, 20, or 40 healthy slow cooker/pressure cooker freezer meals, without the stress of doing the menu planning, grocery shopping, prep work or cleanup. The classes are held weekly in each location. Private classes are also available; for those, a group signs up and chooses the items on the menu. They even offer a vegetarian menu! Angie Olson has attended a couple times to prepare meals for her family. “I do it because the meals are delicious and healthy,” she said. “It’s nice to throw something in (the slow cooker) at 10 in the morning and have dinner by 5 p.m.” A few of the meals Olson was preparing at the class she attended included cashew chicken, buffalo chicken lettuce wraps, pulled pork, orange chicken and a beef stew. She raved about how tasty the pesto-tossed lasagna was and how she couldn’t wait to feed her family that Advertising Supplement to the Standard-Examiner

meal for dinner. “We use all whole foods. Nothing is processed, and pretty much the only things we use from a can are beans and tomatoes,” said Rockwood. “We can also modify meals for allergies and/or intolerances such as nuts, dairy, gluten, etc.” When you arrive at Citrus Pear, ziplock bag holders and cooking supplies are ready for you.The counter top looks almost like a farmers market display, with baskets full of carrots, bell peppers, celery and zucchini. They also use a wide variety of spices, canned tomatoes, beans, etc. An apron with the Citrus Pear logo on the front is waiting at each station. The meals are planned by a regis-

tered dietitian and are prepared one at a Time. By the end of the night, after about 2 hours of cutting, chopping, pouring, mixing and laughing, the participants fill their laundry baskets, coolers or large bags with plastic bags of meals for their families. It takes two of them to load the meals into each car, then they head home, leaving the mess behind for Rockwood and her staff to clean up.

Ashlee Boyson helps others find joy through her nonprofit A Reason to Stand.

Finding ‘A Reason to Stand’ when life knocks you down By Angie Erickson

Ashlee Boyson knows just how hard life can be. She also knows how important it is to keep going. In March 2011, at the age of 28, Ashlee (Corrigan) Boyson, a mother of five, experienced the unimaginable. Her husband, who had been having an affair with a married woman, was murdered by the woman’s husband. Boyson was absolutely devastated, but in all of her hurt and anger was able to put her life back together again and find a reason to stand again. She began sharing her story on her blog themomentswestand.com and through books and through A Reason to Stand -- a nonprofit organization for all who have ever felt broken. Through the nonprofit and her conferences, Boyson uses 4 Spring 2019

the tools to help others bring hope, find joy, and search for the love within themselves. “I help people because I spent so many years feeling alone, and those dark days have motivated me to want to bring light to people who feel stuck in the dark,” she said. “My hope is to help others find peace so they can heal and remember their truths.” Boyson, who has since remarried and is expecting her sixth child in just a few months has some advice for those who are going through hard times, no matter what they might be: Allow yourself to feel. Running from your emotions doesn’t heal them. Advertising Supplement to the Standard-Examiner

Connect to something greater than yourself (religion, a higher power, grace.) “For me my greatest strength came from trusting God, finding faith in his plan and not my own and believing that He sent His Son even for me. Even I was worthy of grace,” she said. Connect to truth. Start listening to the voices in your head. Do they bring you peace or confusion? A person in trauma has a hard time distinguishing negative thoughts from truths. Putting them in different compartments can help us determine if they are helping or hurting us. Only let yourself connect to the thoughts that help you feel light. For example, tell yourself “this bad thing happened to me, but it had nothing to do with who I am. I am still worthy of love, capable of greatness and worth living for. I am enough.” Step outside yourself. Look around for others who are hurting and do something to bring light to their life. It will brighten yours in the process. Feeling broken will sometimes be one of the negative thoughts that tries to enter your mind. This is another part of the healing journey. Getting stuck there will delay your healing, but don’t be afraid to set a timer and let yourself feel those emotions so they don’t turn into fears and take over your life. “After trauma many people look forward to the day when they will stop feeling broken and sad. They hope for a moment when they can feel ‘normal’ again. One thing that I have learned is that we never turn back into the person we were before a big crossroad in our lives,” she said. “Sadness will be a part of our journey, grieving a life that we will never return to again. And it is okay to feel that loss.” For Boyson, this community that started as a vulnerable prompting to share her own story has led her to thousands of people who have shared their journeys with her as well. “We are all connected, every story is a powerful tool for us to learn from,” she said. “It has been humbling to see it grow into a safe place where we all connect and find hope from each other, from God, and from within ourselves. We are all brave survivors too stubborn to just roll over and not finish writing our stories with grace. Helping each other find worth

Getting to know:

Doctor Michael Affleck Prosthodontist If you had a heart problem, you would go to a cardiologist. The same is true for missing or damaged teeth. Whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chewing your favorite food or creating the smile of your dreams, prosthodontists are your partners in healthy, long-lasting restored teeth. Dr. Michael Affleck is a prosthodontist at Affleck Dental in Clearfield. The Standard-Examiner asked him a few questions about his experience as a prosthodontist and what he likes to do when heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not at the office. The interview has been edited for length and category.

laboratory procedures. It was so much harder than Dental School and required about all I had to give. I am glad I did it because I did learn what I wanted to, but I was really glad when it was complete.

SE: How long have you been practicing? Dr. Affleck: 14 years. SE: When it comes to teeth, what’s the number one piece of advice you like to share? Dr. Affleck: Your smile is an important part of your life. If you feel like you are spending money and still breaking down or having problems, consider seeking out a second opinion so an appropriate diagnosis and recommended treatment can be formulated. If you are unhappy with any part of your care, you should be proactive and get a plan you will love.

SE: If someone is considering dental implants, what would you tell them? Dr. Affleck: Planning is the most important part of a successful dental implant treatment. Anyone who says otherwise isn’t skilled enough to provide excellent care. Make sure to seek out professionals who take responsibility for the planning. Do not allow that responsibility to be passed off to a surgeon or a laboratory.

Dr. Affleck: I love being in the mountains and being at my kids activities. I work with Boy Scouts in my neighborhood and really enjoy the jaunts and experiences we are having. To schedule a consultation with Dr. Affleck, call 801-782-5010.

SE: What’s home life like for you? Dr. Affleck: Home life involves keeping kids active in school, church, and extracurricular activities. It’s wonderful and keeps our calendars full. We love the associations and experiences that provides with friends and family. SE: When you’re not fixing teeth, what do you like to do?

Suffering from Sciatica? Relief is possible! Let us diagnose the correct treatment What causes â&#x20AC;&#x153;sciaticaâ&#x20AC;?? Most commonly the result of a bulging or herniated spinal disk, sciatica is a term describing low back pain with associated radiating leg symptoms. The leg symptoms are typically described as sharp, piercing, throbbing, aching, burning, tingling or numbness. Often, patients experience more intense leg symptoms than back pain! Individuals who experience sciatica are at higher

risk for developing chronic symptoms and (if not treated properly) are more likely to require costly and invasive treatments, including surgery.

Diagnosis Symptoms of sciatica include radiating leg pain, but not all those with sciatica have evidence of nerve root injury. This is an important distinction. Patients suffering from sciatica are often

Advertising Supplement to the Standard-Examiner

referred for electrodiagnostic testing in order to determine if they have nerve root injury associated with their symptoms. Electrodiagnostic testing, consisting of needle electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies, is considered the “gold standard” test for determining the health of your spinal nerve roots. My research has found that about half of patients do have nerve spinal root injury. And surprisingly, those with a nerve spinal root injury actually recover faster and more completely than patients with normal test results. In other words, an abnormal EMG was predictive of better recovery!

Treatment The first step for those suffering from sciatica is

to schedule an electrodiagnostic test to determine if you have evidence of nerve root injury. Based on the results of your physical and electrodiagnostic examination, we’ll discuss a comprehensive approach for treatment including spinal manipulation, joint mobilization, and specific therapeutic exercises in our Advanced Spine Care program.

Free consultation Don’t suffer! My extensive research clearly shows that physical therapy is an effective treatment for back pain and sciatica.

Finding mobility and strength By Angie Erickson

For Susan Parr, being able to move her arms and feed herself is a huge accomplishment. If it wasn’t for Northern Utah Rehabilitation Hospital, she would not be able to do those simple tasks that so many of us take for granted. Northern Utah Rehabilitation Hospital specializes in inpatient and outpatient rehabilitative services. Their patients often are recovering from disabilities caused by injuries, illnesses, or chronic medical conditions. In 2016, Parr was living in Texas when she came down with the stomach flu. One night she came home from work and couldn’t move her toes. Thinking it was no big deal she went to bed. She woke up in the middle of the night and couldn’t lift herself up. When morning came she got up to get ready for work and fell to the ground and couldn’t get back up at all. In a matter of hours, her life changed significantly. She couldn’t walk or move anything from the neck down. She couldn’t breathe, eat or speak. Parr was diagnosed with Guillain-Barre' Syndrome - a problem with the nervous system. It can cause muscle weakness, reflex loss, numbness and sometimes lead to paralysis. It usually shows up after a cold, stomach virus or the flu. After spending four months in the hospital, she was released with no idea what her future would hold. “They released me without any therapy plan at all,” she said. “They just sent me to a nursing home because I couldn’t go home yet. I would lay there in bed and my arms were just flat on my side. I couldn’t lift them, couldn’t move my fingers.” In 2017, still unable to move at all, Parr left Texas for Nevada just before her home was destroyed by Hurricane Harvey. “Being in Nevada it was just a nightmare. Nobody wanted to help me,” she said. “The doctors didn’t want to do anything. Finally a doctor 10 Spring 2019

said to get out patient therapy. I did that for six months and they got me moving a little bit.” That’s when she met her home health care therapist, Christina Toone a former physical therapist at Northern Utah Rehabilitation Center in South Ogden. “I was seeing her in Nevada and she was really bad off,” Toone said. “She just wasn’t getting the care she needed.” Toone told her all about Northern Utah Rehabilitation Hospital, made her an appointment and drove her from Nevada to South Ogden because she knew the positive difference they could make in Parr’s life. On December 20, Parr became a patient at Advertising Supplement to the Standard-Examiner

Northern Utah Rehabilitation Center. “I’ve got more mobilization than I have had in three years,” said Parr. “Each day I get occupational therapy for an hour and a half, an hour or so break and then the physical therapist comes in and I go for another hour and a half.” One big thing Parr wanted to accomplish was to be able to feed herself. Three weeks into the therapy and with the help of a specialized spoon, Parr can now eat on her own. “The staff here has been wonderful. Everybody is just so nice, friendly and helpful,” she said. “Everyone has just been so positive.” Her biggest goal is to be able to walk again. “I want to be able to walk into

What Is Grief? The death of a loved one is life’s most painful event. People’s reactions to death remains one of society’s least understood and most off-limits topics for discussion. Often grievers are left totally alone in dealing with their pain, loneliness, and isolation. Grief is a natural emotion that follows death. It hurts. Sadness, denial, guilt, physical discomfort, and sleeplessness are some of the symptoms of grief. It is like an open wound that must heal. At times it seems as if this healing will never happen. While some of life’s spontaneity begins to return, it never seems to get back to the way it was. It is still incomplete. We know, however, that these feelings of being incomplete can disappear. Healing is a process of allowing us to feel, experience, and accept the pain. In other words, we give ourselves permission to heal. Allowing ourselves to accept these feelings is the beginning of that process. The healing process can take much less time than we have been led to believe. There are two missing parts. One is a safe, loving, professionally guided atmosphere in which to express our feelings; the other is knowing how and what to communicate. 12 Spring 2019

The Grieving Process When we experience a major loss, grief is the normal and natural way our mind and body react. Everyone grieves differently, but at the same time there are common patterns people tend to share. For example, someone experiencing grief usually moves through a series of emotional stages, such as shock, numbness, guilt, anger, and denial. And physical responses are typical also. They can include: sleeplessness, inability to eat or concentrate, lack of energy, and lack of interest in activities previously enjoyed. Time always plays an important role in the grieving process. As the days, weeks and months go by, the person who is experiencing loss moves through emotional and physical reactions that lead toward acceptance, healing and getting on with life as fully as possible. Sometimes a person can become overwhelmed or bogged down in the grieving process. Serious losses are never easy to deal with, but someone who is having trouble beginning to actively re-engage in life after a few months should consider getting professional help. For example, if continual depression or physical symptoms such as loss of appetite, inability to sleep, or chronic lack of energy persists,it is probably time to see a doctor.

Facials to help you get rid of that dry winter skin By Angie Erickson

Is the cold winter weather causing your skin to dry out? If so, you’re not alone. When the air outside is cold and dry, the moisture in the skin doesn’t hold as well, resulting in tight, dry and flaky skin. Sound familiar? “Winter weather causes our skin to go into such a dry state,” says medical master esthetician, Bryndon Chojnowski-Gambles. “The best thing for dry and changing skin from the drastic weather changes in the winter are any type of hydrating facial or hydrating chemical treatment.” When it comes to facials, there are many different options and often times it can be overwhelming in knowing what is best for your skin. That’s where an esthetician or dermatologist can help out. They can recommend cleansers, moisturizers and facials for your skin. So, if you’ve been thinking about booking an appointment for a facial, do it! It will be ideal for your skin. Here is a list of facials that your esthetician or dermatologist might recommend.

is all dead skin cells. It then puts hydrating serums back into the skin to nourish and hydrate.

Vampire Facial This sounds like something to do with Halloween, but nope it’s not. A vampire facial is a procedure that involves drawing blood from a client’s body, placing it in a centrifuge, then reapplying it to the face. The purpose of the vampire facial is to promote cell renewal.

Microneedling Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment where tiny punctures in the skin are made using micro-fine needles. This triggers the body’s wound healing process, stimulating collagen and elastin production.

Microdermabrasion An exfoliation and skin rejuvenation procedure that leaves skin looking softer and brighter, Microdermabrasion uses tiny crystals that are sprayed onto the skin to gently remove the outer layer of your skin.

The Classic Facial The classic facial is a basic regimen for healthy skin and involves cleaning, purifying, rehydration and relaxation treatments. These can have different themes - like teen facial or blueberry smoothie facial.

Hydra Facial The hydra facial takes off the first top layer of skin which 14 Spring 2019

Chemical Peel A chemical solution is applied to the skin that makes it exfoliate and peel off. It helps improve the appearance of the skin, resulting in regenerated skin that is usually smoother than the old skin. Different types of chemical peels are available such as superficial, medium and deep. The deep peel removes moderate lines, age spots, freckles and shallow scars.

Getting Outdoors By Angie Erickson

We’re almost a month into those new year goals and resolutions and chances are exercise and be active are at the top of your 2019 list. If you’re already getting bored of those daily treadmill runs or have just decided to hibernate this winter, it might be time to trade your day at the gym or on the couch for a day in the great outdoors. So, get bundled up and try one of these outdoor winter workouts that are sure to burn calories and rev up those endorphins.

Snowshoeing Don’t let the snow stop you from going hiking. Strap on some snowshoes and take a hike through the winter wonderland. No snowshoes? No problem. Snowshoes can be rented from Weber State Outdoor Program, Ogden Nordic Center or North Ogden City Here are a couple trails to try this winter. North Fork Park Trail 4150 East 5950 North, Liberty, UT 84310 This is a fairly easy, groomed trail, great for beginners. Wheeler Creek Trail This uphill trail is located in Ogden Canyon, just west of Pineview Reservoir.

Sledding

Safety tips to remember when exercising outdoors in the winter ~ Check the weather forecast and air quality before heading out. ~ Dress in layers. ~ Cover your head, hands, ears and feet. ~ Stay hydrated. ~ Tell someone where you are going. ~ Know the signs of frostbite and hypothermia. ~ If going hiking or in the mountains, check avalanche dangers.

Northern Utah. Rentals are available at Weber State Outdoor Program and Ogden Nordic Center.

Ride a Bike

Baby it’s cold outside! But that doesn’t mean you can’t have a fun time. Keep the activity simple by heading to the nearest sledding hill, usually at a local park or mountainside. Hiking up those sledding is going to be a great lower body workout. You’ll give your body a rest going down then work it again going back up.

We’re not talking about riding your 10-speed or dirt bike through the snow, you’re going to need a Fat Bike. A Fat Bike is an off-road bicycle that has oversize tires (that’s where “fat” comes into play.) The tires are designed to allow riding on snow. Fat Bikes have been gaining popularity here in Utah. Fat Bikes can be rented from Diamond Peak and The Bike Shoppe.

Ice Skating

Hike Antelope Island

Ice skating is a great exercise for the leg muscles and also helps with balance, plus it can be a lot of fun. So lace up those skates and check out one of the local ice skating rinks. The Ice Sheet (This ice rink is indoors, but you feel like your outdoors. Plus, it’s open year round.) 4390 Harrison Blvd, Ogden Ice skating at Station Park (Last day of the season is February 3.) Station Park Mall, 140 N. Union Ave, Farmington General hours: 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Saturday and noon to 6 p.m. Sunday

The park is open from sunrise to sunset and offers a gorgeous setting for a full body workout. Take a walk along the water or a hike up one of the cliffs. It will be a great way to soak up some Vitamin D during the winter months. End the day by watching the sunset on the water.

Cross Country Skiing If you’ve never been cross country skiing, this is the winter to try it. Cross country skiing is great fun, good exercise and allows you to ski without the steep hills. Plus, North Fork Park is the premiere cross country skiing destination in Advertising Supplement to the Standard-Examiner

Hit the Slopes Just over the mountains and through the woods, Northern Utah residents are lucky for the opportunities to enjoy the greatest snow on earth at one of the local ski resorts. Skiing is a great cardio workout and also strengthens muscles. Chances are you’ll be at the resort most of the day, so an hour you’d normally spend at the gym becomes an entire day workout on the slopes. Sounds like a pretty great way to spend your day. If you’ve never been skiing or snowboarding, and you really want to try, Powder Mountain, Nordic Valley and Snowbasin all offer private and group lessons for children and adults. Spring 2019 15
