Philosophical approach: “My journey began over 35 years ago, when I became certified in a form of body-centered meditation that allowed me to move through my own anxiety with grace. I discovered how softly shifting our approach to ourselves creates insight and healing. CranioSacral Therapy is a hands-on way to assist this process of developing intimacy with parts of ourselves that through stress or trauma have become unconscious. It’s in these unconscious parts of ourselves where healing happens. CST helps us gently meet ourselves in the moment, allowing old nervous system patterns to be felt and released, creating a pathway to physical well-being and inner peace. The sessions offer profound relaxation.”

Covid protocols: “I integrate the CDC’s best safety practices into the sessions. Both the client and I wear face masks the entire time we are together. In addition, I wear a face shield while working, and I use gloves when touching the face. All appointments require an initial telephone-screening session, as I am currently limiting my practice to clients who are doing their very best to be safe during the pandemic. I am being tested weekly for the virus as a safety protocol.”

The ABCs of CBD

The Essential Guide (Why Pot Is NOT What We Were Taught)

By Shira Adler

Available on Amazon and from local retailers

What’s your book about?

It’s a practical, comprehensive guide to all the things you’ve ever wanted to know about cannabinoids but were afraid to ask. CBD is the “other” ingredient in hemp and pot—the one that doesn’t get you stoned but can still help make you better. Read this book to see how the ancient wisdom of plants combined with cutting-edge scientific research could change your life. This is the moment where the medical marijuana revolution is transforming our belief system and the way we perceive this once highly stigmatized substance.

Why did you write this book?

I wrote this book to correct misinformation, shatter stigma and share the history, relevance and potential of this plant species, from its roots in antiquity to its modern-day applications and impact. This species can heal people and our planet.

What was your mission with the book?

I started Synergy by Shira Adler, a boutique health and wellness company, in 2011. I continued researching plant-based therapeutics years before anyone had ever really heard of CBD, and I adapted my Synergy Sprays aromatherapy series by infusing it with CBD back in 2016. I do so many talks and consultations, the book was a natural—and necessary—next step. It was first published as my own son was making his way through a very common struggle with self-medication as a young teen. I started this journey because of my own family—and continue for everyone else’s.

Tell us a little about yourself.

I’ve spent a lifetime helping others overcome myriad life challenges, obstacles and personal issues. I’m honored to be an internationally recognized and highly vetted CBD expert, consultant, educator and entrepreneur. I’m also the president of the NYHIA (Hemp Industries Association), the oldest trade organization in the industry, and we’re Shira Adler expanding to become the Northeast Region HIA affiliate. I’m also launching a large agritech and bio-infrastructure company dedicated to advancing eco-hemp initiatives and plant-based therapeutic programs and products. Connect with Shira at ShiraAdler.com. See ad, page 31. The G.U.T. Method

Secrets beyond Your Plate for a Healthier, More Energetic Life

By Sharon Holand Gelfand

Available on Amazon

What’s your book about?

This book is about helping readers become their own health advocates. It gives them the tools to help them tune back into themselves. It’s a guidebook with written exercise prompts to help the reader follow the G.U.T. method: 1) Get connected to their symptoms, physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. 2) Understand what’s going on in their bodies and why. 3) Take action, tune in and heal.

Why did you write this book?

When my son was diagnosed with Crohn’s, ileitis and ulcerative colitis and I started researching the what and why behind these diagnoses, I realized that I knew nothing about health and nutrition. I went to grad school to understand what was going on, so that I could help him heal. This opened my eyes to the fact that we are looking at health and nutrition completely wrong. It was clear to me that we needed a book that would guide us to become our own health advocates.

What was your mission with the book?

My goal is to put health back into the readers’ hands and to empower them to speak up for themselves and ask questions. I want the readers to truly understand what their bodies need, because health and nutrition is not a cookie-cutter solution. We need to know what we each need individually.

Tell us a little about yourself.

I am a functional, holistic nutritionist, speaker, business owner and author who disrupts the way we think about food and how we eat. I work with clients privately and through group programs. With my private clients, I help them get to the root of their most common health complaints with at-home Sharon Holand Gelfandtesting and flexible food choices, so they have more energy and less stress and can feel great again. I will also be starting a membership this summer. I am a member of the American College of Nutrition and a board-certified holistic health practitioner.

The Currency of Connection

How to Create Energy, Value and Meaning in Your Life and the Lives of Others

By Carol and Rick Gabrielly Available on Amazon and at CurrencyOfConnectionBook.com

What’s your book about?

This book is about how one person can make a difference in your life—maybe even save it. Take a front-row seat and travel from devastating disconnection to a life of purpose and gratitude.

Why did you write this book?

We wrote this book to illustrate the lifesaving power of connection and how vital it is for each one of us to reach out. You’ll be surprised how valuable you are in the world.

What was your mission with the book?

Our goal is to help combat isolation—especially during the pandemic of 2020 and beyond—and to promote deeper connection with others at work and at home.

Tell us a little about yourself. We’ve been helping others gain awareness, access education and find opportunities for more than 34 years. Through the power of connection, we’ve been able to help individuals and
