You are not alone.May has me thinking about mental health. I know … there’s
a stigma. Why are we so araid to talk seriously about it?According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness,
one in our adults — approximately 57.7 million Americans— experience a mental health disorder in a given year. So,given the odds, we all know someone who may be silently
suering. Maybe it’s your coworker. Maybe it’s your aunt. Or,maybe it’s your yoga instructor. I someone you care aboutis struggling, don’t you want to know so you can show yoursupport and concern?
Yes, May is mental health awareness month. It’s the perecttime or us to eliminate the stigma and get the dialoguestarted! Most importantly, i you are one o “the one in our,”please know that you are not alone. Reach out to amily,riends or your healthcare provider or support. Visit nami.org or nimh.nih.gov or more inormation.
As I look over the 2012 National Health Observancescalendar, there are so many illnesses to command our atten-tion: arthritis; hepatitis; lupus; skin cancer; asthma; celiac
disease; high blood pressure; and more — just in the montho May. Observing these awareness months not only educatesall o us, but also pushes us to show more compassion and toocus more closely on a healthy, happy liestyle.
We’d like to help you on your journey! In this issue, JulieRider has some advice i you are looking to make any typeo change in your lie. Melissa Seith shares some great inor-mation about coordinating your meals and snacks in orderto maximize your workouts.

Justin Konitzer was weightlifting when he felt a severestrain in his neck. The pain was so great that he could
not hold his head up straight for months. “My life wasbasically on hold.”
Neuroscience Group’s Dr. Randall Johnson,
neurosurgeon, performed a neck fusionprocedure that corrected Justin’s injury and
relieved the pain. Just three months after
the surgery Justin was back to liftingweights and playing with his kids.
“I couldn’t ask for anything more.”

While 84 classications o sleep disorders exist, sleepapnea, narcolepsy and restless leg syndrome are amongthe most common. Symptoms o these sleep disorders
include general tiredness, irritability, problems with concentration
or memory, waking eeling unrereshed, morning headaches andsleepiness throughout the day.
Sleep apnea is a problem with discontinuing breathing whilesleeping. Some o the most obvious symptoms include loud snoringand signicant weight gain. Sleep apnea can actually cause weightgain — people who are at risk or having sleep apnea are morelikely to have sleep apnea i they are overweight, and conversely,the sleep apnea can cause weight gain. People with sleep apneaoen stop breathing during sleep and wake up gasping or air.
Other medical conditions are more dicult to treat in peoplethat have undiagnosed sleep apnea, including diabetes and highblood pressure. Additionally, people that have chronic pain
syndromes will oen have a condition o sleep apnea, whichmakes the chronic pain more dicult to treat. People that havesymptoms that present themselves as depression may actually bea component o sleep apnea, such as poor energy and dicultieswith motivation and concentration. Some medications can makesleep apnea more likely to occur, including those taken or chronicpain issues.
Narcolepsy is an inherited condition where a patient hadeal o diculty discerning the dierence between slwake. Most o us consider wakeulness as white and sleep where people with narcolepsy spend most o their days anin the gray. Narcolepsy is very disruptive — people can aat inappropriate times, and no matter how much sleep tthey have a relentless overwhelming desire to go back t

People oen develop narcolepsy when they’re quite young and itnever occurs to them it could be a problem or abnormality, sothe condition can go unrecognized in amilies. It’s important todiscern in people that have relentless daytime sleepiness whetheror not they have narcolepsy because it is a condition that can bereadily treated and can have a signicant impact on quality o lie.
Restless leg syndrome is where people have an internal sensa-tion in their legs where they need to move them or rub them orget up to walk around. Tis can interere with one’s ability to getenough rest. Restless leg syndrome is a condition that is sometimesseen with other neurologic problems, such as Parkinson’s diseaseand Alzheimer’s disease. Other medical conditions, such as irondeciency or renal disease can also cause restless leg syndrome.
People that have trouble getting adequate sleep will very oenhave relentless weight gain. Many sleep specialists, in act, believethat the obesity issue in the United States isn’t a calorie or oodintake issue, but a sleep disorder issue. It is believed that we havelost our articial ability to sleep adequately, and because o this,changes in the body chemistry are developed. Sleep disorders are
also associated with diabetes, hypertension and heart disease.

We are back again with our nextsegment in our 12-part seriesaddressed Wellness vs. Wellbe-
ing. As mentioned in previous months’ arti-cles, individuals who ocus on wellbeing aremore likely to be healthy and whole. Wellbe-ing is the oundation or overall wellness. Justor Me™ Wellbeing Program is designed toenhance wellbeing, strengthen your relation-ships, expand your ability to manage stressand help you urther enjoy what you do. TeJust or Me™ Wellbeing Program has imple-mented successully at arget Corporation,cities o St. Louis Park and Prior Lake (bothin Minnesota), St. Catherine’s University inthe win Cities and the Multiple Sclerosis
Society. Each participant in the Just or Me™Wellbeing Program sets an intention at thestart o the program and each week the ocusis on one o twelve realms to encourage,inspire and ensure movement orward onthat intention. Please join me each month asI introduce Wellness vs. Wellbeing, explor-ing the Just or Me™ twelve realms that willsupport our overarching intention o creat-ing wellbeing throughout our lives:
Inner drive/motivation
Change comes rom within. Setting goalsand making changes in our lives comes romwithin, or what we call intrinsic goals. Canyou remember a time when someone triedto impose a change on you? Tat probably didn’t work because it was rom outside o yoursel, or extrinsic. We change when weare ready to change and that is impacted by the reality o the stage we are in at the time.
In the Stages o Change Model we ask
clients to evaluate themind/body stage o change they eel they
are in with regards tothe change they aretrying to make in theirlives. Tis model wasdeveloped by Prochaskaand DiClemente at theUniversity o RhodeIsland as they studiedhow smokers were ableto give up their habitsor addictions. TeStages o Change Modelhas been applied to a
broad range o behav-iors, including weightloss, injury prevention,alcohol addiction anddrug problems. Te idea behind it is thatbehavior changes in steps and individualsgo through various stages on their way tosuccessul change. In the Just or Me™ Well-being Program we ask participants to eval-uate what stage they think they are in at thebeginning, and again, aer completing thework, at the end o the 12-week program.
How committed are you to the changeyou want on a scale o 1-10? What will ittake to get you to a 10? Ask yoursel whatstage o change you believe you are in?What would it take to move to the nextstage? What is the cost o putting that o?Who can help you get what you desire?
When you think about the change youwant in your lie, do you give up becauseit all seems so overwhelming? In personal
coaching and Just or Me™ WProgram we work together on stret(rather than snap goals) and leaconsistent baby steps are better thaing or all out and chancing overwourselves. We learn how to stay “in” and show up day in and day ou

For many people, there are times whenanxiety can seem inescapable. In theworkplace, social anxiety can destroy
potential growth and job satisaction. In
the home, constant worry and unreason-able ears can take a toll on your relation-ship with your spouse, partner, riends andchildren. Worst o all, anxiety can make youeel like there’s no escape rom its eects.
I you suer rom anxiety, at least know
that you are not alone.Approximately 40 millionAmericans are going throughthe same thing.1,2 Far beyond
personal stress, it has large-scalemonetary consequences, too.Anxiety disorders cost the U.S.more than $42 billion a year, almostone third o the $148 billion totalmental health bill or the U.S.3
An unexpected
herb or anxietyBy Terry Lemerond

But happily, there is a way to break outo the cycle o anxiety. Best yet, it is natural,clinically tested and ree o side eects.Along with liestyle changes like cuttingback on caeine, practicing yoga or medi-tation, and getting regular exercise, thisreliable botanical can help you deal withanxiety eectively. And it’s not one thatyou’d normally expect.
Certainly, many botanicals have beenrecognized in connection with anxiety reduction: valerian, alpha-linolenic acid,axseed, kava and gotu kola, to name a ew.But oddly enough, there is one botanicalthat may come as a surprise — Echinacea.
Specically, it is a unique extract o Echi-nacea angustiolia, and one administered atlow doses.
So why didn’t we know aboutthis a long time ago?
You’d think that with all o the clinicalstudies and research that has been donewith Echinacea and immune health, thatsomeone would have seen a connec-tion between the herb and some kind o calming eect.
But the reason more peoplehadn’t noticed Echinaceareduces anxiety beore isbecause the typical dosage orimmune system support (the tradi-tional use or Echinacea) is pretty high— generally hundreds o milligrams perdose. But in lower amounts,the E. angustiolia species
provides a dramatically dierent eect.
Tis discovery cameabout when researchers atthe Hungarian Academy o Sciences were analyz-ing dierent species o Echi-nacea and ound that some o the plantscontained compounds that were known toinuence brain chemistry, including recep-tors in our brain that trigger anxiety.
However, only one o the ve
extracts they tested — Echina-cea angustiolia, grown underspecic conditions — possessedhigh enough levels o benecialcompounds to show anxiety-relievingeects.4

Clinical ndingsIn a scientic study, a variety o Echinaceaextracts were compared to the prescriptionanti-anxiety drug, chlordiazepoxide (brandname Librium®).4 Only the special extractrom Echinacea angustiolia demonstratedsignicant anxiety reduction, comparable
to the prescription drug. During thesetests, there were no issues with Echinacearegarding sleepiness and impaired move-ment — a side eect commonly seen inhigher doses o chlordiazepoxide.4
Tis extract was then tested with indi- viduals experiencing generalized anxiety disorder. Aer only one day o use, theparticipants experienced a signicantreduction o anxiety, and a 25% reductionby day 7. Tis preparation o Echinaceaangustiolia root extract was ound to not
only meet or exceed the drug anti-anxiety eects, but also did not cause drowsiness,which is only one o the many possible sideeects o prescription anxiety-relievingdrugs.5,6
Dosage — or anxiety,more is not betterDosage levels are very important. Anxiety relie only occurs at low doses, and disap-pears when the dosage is greatly increased.So, just use one 20 mg tablet at a time, upto 4 per day i needed. It’s a bit o a switch
o thinking to realize that in this case, lessreally is more. But this actually makes theextract very handy — it can be used severaltimes a day i needed — especially beore astressul event like making a presentationor air travel.
So, while Echinacea usually brings “coldand u” to mind, it’s time to consider thisamazing extract o Echinacea angustiolia or ghting anxiety, too. You’ll nd thatthis great botanical can help guide youthrough the storms o worry and set you
on a path to peace o mind.erry Lemerond is the ounder and pres-ident o EuroPharma, which marketssupplements under the erry Naturallybrand name nationwide and is located at 955 Challenger Drive in Green Bay.

Question: Well, it’s that time o year again. Any advice on stick-ing to my New Year’s resolutions now that we are several monthsinto 2012?Answer: o be honest with you, I don’t really like the whole reso-lution approach at all. Wasn’t it Einstein that said doing the samething over and over again and expecting dierent results is a suresign o insanity? I that’s true, I nd it ironic that people set similargoals year aer year, and yet ail to reach those goals year aer year.It’s clear you want to make some changes — that’s what resolutionsare all about — but it sounds like it’s your mindset that needs tochange. You have to determine how committed you are to living
a liestyle o health. Aer all, it takes dedication and hard work to exercise consistently, make healthy ood choices most o thetime and get adequate sleep each night. And these are just someo the behaviors that dene wellness. But here’s the thing — whenyou decide that revamping your liestyle is more important thanreaching some short-term goal or 2012, New Year’s resolutionswill become a thing o the past!
Question: I’d love to run a 5K with some riends this spring, butI am not active at all right now. How should I go about training orsomething like this?Answer: Tis is a great question! Tere are actually several plans
on the Internet that can take you rom the couch to the 5K coursein as little as 8-10 weeks. In act, you can even use one o theseplans i you have no intention o running a 5K, but simply wantto start incorporating tness (running) into your liestyle. Mosto the plans start with combination walk/jog/walk session, 3 daysper week, steadily increasing the actual jog time rom just 2 or 3minutes to about 10 minutes by weeks 4 or 5. At this point, youalso start to add an extra day o training, totaling 4 sessions eachweek. As you continue to increase your jog time, you gradually remove the walking warm-up, thereby nishing each workout
with just a basic walking cool-down. By the time you gweeks, you should be able to run consistently or 25-30 without stopping. Not bad or a ormer couch potato, ha Google search or couch-to-5K training programs or chwww.halhigdon.com or more inormation. Good luck!
Question: I’m looking to add some serious muscle mI’m curious about the engineered weight gainers out market. In other words, do you think weight gainers shused to gain weight?Answer: Weight gainer supplements can have a place
comes to adding muscle, but here’s my general philosophmatter. First o all, we know calories are o prime impogaining weight is the goal. We also know that some peoplcan’t eat enough to gain the type o weight that they’dTis means that liquid calories become pretty important
liquids obviously aren’t quite as solid oods. But my personal pr
would be to create my own weight gainer sies with real oods, like ruits, yogurt, powders, oats, milk and even things likebutter, rozen yogurt and a little bit o chTen, you can combine these “beverages” wi
hearty meals, and you’ll be on your way to you in no time. I you’ve ound a particulargainer supplement that you happen to like, and you can athen you can certainly go that route, too. I just happen“ood rst” kind o gal, and I’ve always ound my smooth
shakes more palatable than what is on the mathe end, do what you think is best, and don’t train or weight gain as well.

My rst encounter with a homebirthmama and her 5-month-old sonwas during an “Options in Child-
birth” class at the Mom and Pop Place inNeenah, Wis. Sure, I’ve seen the documenta-ries like Te Business o Being Born andWhat
Babies Want , so I’ve gotten some pretty greatimages o the process. But I had yet to see theend result — the relationships o the amily — until now. Tey were the most bewitch-ing pair I have ever seen and not necessarily because o physical attributes, though they were quite cute. It was the love they had oreach other. I could see their connection asclear as day. So in tune with each other, they perormed this amazing dance o bonding,breasteeding, sleeping and playing and Iobserved this in a span o only 2 hours.
Tis baby was so very alert andhappy, smiling at everyone in theroom individually as i to say, “Tisis what you can have i you choosenatural childbirth. Tis is the reward. A baby like me who has absolutely no doubt that he
is wanted and loved and came into this worldKNOWING that.”He was born gently with love into an invit-
ing place … his own home. His mom heldhim resh without cleaning him o rst. Hewasn’t whisked away or a vaccine or to getointment smeared into his eyes. Tis motherand child were allowed to do what natureintended them to do … bond, oat away onthe euphoria o each other’s scents, all inlove and nourish one another. Nothing elsewas necessary.
Since then, I’ve met several morbirth mama/baby pairs. Tomasa,
natural parent, was kind enough to comparison o hospital and homebirriences, as she’s done both between children. She elt that while in labohospital, the restrictions were minimrom not being allowed to eat. For big dierence between homebirth antal birth was more glaring once baby

were immediately placed on my chest and gotto relax or some quite time. Tey checked thebaby out while I was cuddling and bonding.In the hospital, I got a second or a quick hugand then they took her to check her vitalsand everything. Tis reaked me out andaer that I was labeled “dicult” because Iwouldn’t let them take her. Tey kept comingin and wanting to take her to the nursery sothey could bathe her, let me get my rest andthe list went on. Ten, beore we could leave,
a pediatrician had to check her out to clearus. Because we do not vaccinate and I did notallow the Hep B vaccination to be given, hegave me a lecture that would make even aperson that had not just given birth and hadcrazy hormone issues cry.”
When I askedTomasa whatshe’d like every mom to knowabout choos-ing a childbirthmethod, this iswhat she said.
“I would tell
a mom that she just needs to listen to her gut. I having herbaby in the comort o her own home eelsright to her then she should go with that.Society has many women believing thatthe only sae place to have a baby is in thehospital. Granted they have their place, butwe were giving birth long beore hospitalsever existed. When women go into a hospi-tal to deliver without a clear birth plan they can be more easily lead down the path o what is best or the doctor and the hospital
over what is best or the mom and the baby.Homebirths are totally ocused on momand the baby, the way it should be.”

According to the Centers or Disease Control and Preven-tion, one out o every three Americans is aected witharthritis. Most people over the age o 50 show some signs
o arthritis, but it is not just an older person’s disease. Nearly two
thirds o people with arthritis are younger than age 65, and areaected by over 100 types o arthritic and degenerative conditions.wo o the most common orms are osteoarthritis and rheuma-
toid arthritis, and although they have very dierent causes, risk actors and eects on the body, they share a common symptom —persistent joint pain.
Acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine (CM) havebeen ound to be extremely eective at treating the pain andinammation associated with all types o arthritis. CM does notrecognize arthritis as one particular syndrome. Instead, it treats thespecic symptoms that are unique to each individual using a variety o techniques such as acupuncture, Chinese herbs, bodywork, lie-style and dietary recommendations, and exercises to restore imbal-
ances ound in the body.Studies have shown support or the use o acupuncture or arthri-
tis pain. A Scandinavian study o patients with osteoarthritis symp-toms showed positive relie well enough that 25 percent o patientswho had been scheduled or knee surgery cancelled their opera-tions aer acupuncture treatment. Te same study showed ollow-up treatments once monthly sustained the pain relie.
A University o Maryland study showed patients who twice-weekly acupuncture treatments with conventional or eight weeks had signicant pain relie and had improin unction. Patients who received conventional treatments
acupuncture showed no signicant change.Acupuncture can stimulate the production o end(natural pain-killing hormones in the brain) and anti-intory hormones that reduce pain and inammation. Acupcan be used on an ongoing basis to prevent re-occurrenceonce it has been successully controlled.
Modern western medicine typically recommends non-santi-inammatory drugs (NSAIDs) as treatment or arthrittoms. Long-term NSAID use is estimated to be responsible100,000 hospitalizations and 16,500 deaths per year in theStates, and represents 43% o drug-related emergency visitits adverse eects on the gastrointestinal system.
Arthritis symptoms maniest as pain, soreness or num
muscles, tendons and joints, and are the result o the bod“invaded” by external actors such as wind, cold, heat and/oness, according to CM. Tese pathogenic invaders lodgbody’s meridians (energy pathways) and obstruct the reeqi (energy) and blood in the meridians.

How would you describe the essence o America? Is it ourattitude o sel-reliance, or maybe the resourceulness thathelped create the wealth and stature that makes us who
we are today? From the pioneers that settled rom sea to shiningsea, to the entrepreneurial spirit o Silicon Valley, America is whatshe is because people who had a vision o what they wanted theirlie to be like set out to create that lie or themselves.
Why haven’t Americans tapped intothat sel-reliance when acingliestyle issues such as stress?An article rom WebMD titled “How Does Stress Aect Health?” 1
sums up the eects o stress. According to the article, there are twokinds o stress, positive stress and negative stress. Positive stressinvokes our body’s built-in “ght or ight” response that alerts usto dangerous situations that could be detrimental to our survival.Negative stress, on the other hand, happens when we ace contin-uous challenges without any relie or relaxation in between. As aresult, we can become overworked and “stressed-out.”
Te WebMD article also cites the following:
• Forty-three percent o all adults suer adverse health erom stress.
• Seventy-ve percent to 90% o all doctor’s oce visits stress-related ailments and complaints.
• Stress can play a part in problems such as headaches, hblood pressure, heart problems, diabetes, skin conditioasthma, arthritis, depression and anxiety.

Jyutsu® seem simple on the surace, but employees who are betterable to handle negative stress situations tend to be more produc-tive at work and happier at home.
Some examples o workplace wellness programs/coursesinclude health education classes, subsidized use o tness acili-ties and internal policies that promote healthy behavior. Whensuccessul, wellness programs can:
• Improve “presenteeism”: Tis occurs when employeescome to work but are not as productive as usual due to stress,depression, injury or illness.2
• Reduce injuries: Healthy employees are at a lower risk orinjury than unhealthy employees.
Many modalities used in wellness programs ocus on the physi-cal or emotional aspects o complete health. Jin Shin Jyutsu®,however, incorporates physical as well as emotional well-being.It is so incredibly versatile that it extends beyond proximity to agym, potential adversity to needles, side eects rom medicines or
herbal remedies, or even pain so intense that any type o mpressure would be unbearable or the patient.
Since Jin Shin Jyutsu® is an all-natural, drug-ree optdoes not use any pressure applied to the surace o the skinnot interere with traditional medical methods and can beconjunction with current exercise and wellness initiativesdoes something that many other modalities do not — it pthe opportunity to help one’s sel, rather than depend sthe practitioner to alleviate all ailments. Jin Shin Jyutsu® d
require any special or expensive equipment and can be tered anywhere, at any time.
In a world where people are constantly searching answers, and stress is becoming a serious health risk, cowellness programs are denitely a step in the right dIncorporating an all-encompassing modality such as JJyutsu® could bring wellness to a whole new level, inemployee productivity, reducing health care costs and maybringing America back to those qualities that made her wis — sel-reliant and resourceul.

“Polychrome” means multicolored.“Jasper” means spotted or speckled.And this mineral, Polychrome Jasper,
once seen, makes it understandable to see how it was named. Poly-chrome Jasper is a beautiully vivid multicolored specimen thatreminds one o the Painted Desert. Perhaps that’s why it is alsocalled Desert Jasper.
While searching or the now mined-out mineral, Ocean Jasper,a discovery o Polychrome Jasper was made in Madagascar. Jasperis ound worldwide and in a dozen types. Polychrome Jasper, anopaque crystal, is usually banded or ree-ormed and ound in red,
yellow, brown and green. Blue Polychrome Jasper is rarer. It is theiron oxides that give jasper its color.
Ocean Jasper or Orbicular Jasper generally has round concen-tric “eye” or orb patterns. Tese spherical patterns are inclusionsdeveloped when a crystal acts as the eye or seed o the orma-tion. A variety o colors are ound in Ocean Jasper. It is also calledkinradite, oregonite, Owyhee Jasper and poppy-patterned jasper.
When it comes to earthly properties, these jaspers act alent crystals to ground one to the earth physically. It will allize the aura and the electromagnetic eld o the body. Jasalign the chakras and assist in the healing process, balanphysical and spiritual bodies to the ethereal plane.

I encounter a lot o people that have been told the reason they have pain in a joint, or joints, is due to arthritis. Many o themeel that nothing can be done, that they will have to just live
with it, try to manage it with medication and/or when it becomesintolerable, have surgery. What people don’t usually realize is that
physical therapy can benet them by lessening arthritis pain andstiness, and improving their unction.First, it is important to understand a little bit about arthritis.
Tere are many dierent types. Osteoarthritis (OA) is the mostcommon orm o arthritis and it aects millions o Americans. Alsoreerred to as degenerative joint disease or degenerative arthritis,
osteoarthritis is the “wear and tear” orm o arthritis. It isa result o overuse or excessive stress on the joint(s). It cconsequence o previous injuries, strenuous sports, obesityaging. Osteoarthritis may occur early in the lives o athleteweight individuals and those who have suered a previou
to a joint. It most commonly aficts weight bearing jointsthe eet, ankles, knees, hips and spine; but, can develop in ain the body.

there to allow the bones in the joint to glide over each other with very little riction, and to cushion the joint and serve as a shock absorber. But, as the cartilage starts to wear away, the ends o thebones begin to rub together … people requently reer to thiscondition as “bone on bone.” Te aected joint becomes painul,sti and weak.
Excessive stress placed on joints can also cause cartilage towear out more quickly than normal. Some people even developpainul bumps, called spurs, on the end o their bones. Regardless
o the cause, the symptoms o osteoarthritis can be rustrating anddebilitating.
Although physical therapy can’t cure or reverse osteoarthritis,it can help improve the symptoms o pain, stiness, and weaknessassociated with arthritis. By identiying and correcting actorsthat put too much stress on the joint, physical therapy can helpslow the progression o osteoarthritis as well as the severity o thesymptoms.
So, what are the actors? Some o the actors that increase osteo-arthritis symptoms include imbalances in exibility, joint rangeo motion and mobility, strength and balance. When there isn’tenough exibility or there is an imbalance in exibility o muscles
that support a joint, the stress on the joint can cause pain and thecartilage to wear out aster.I a joint is sti, lacking range o motion and not moving
properly, additional stress and riction are placed on cartilage.Conversely, i a joint is too loose or unstable, there will also be toomuch stress on the joint. Muscles help support and stabilize our
joints, but i they are weak or there’s an imbalance, extra stress willbe placed on the joint. Finally, joints help provide our bodies withbalance inormation and control. I you have poor balance, extrastress is placed on your joints as they try to stabilize.
Sounds exasperating, doesn’t it? Te good news is that physicaltherapy can help correct these stressors on the joints. I requently have patients come in with arthritis-related pain and stiness that
are relying on medication to manage their symptoms. Many o them are even contemplating surgery. In many cases I am ableto help them improve their symptoms and unction, eliminatingthe need or medication and oentimes, they can orego surgery.Certainly, physical therapy is worth a try!
A physical therapist is a well-educated and trained health careproessional who specializes in evaluating, diagnosing and treat-ing mobility dysunctions. Evaluation should include a detailedhistory and thorough hands-on examination to diagnose all o theactors contributing to the symptoms, ollowed by a combinationo hands-on manual treatment and a specic individualized exer-cise prescription to help correct the problems.
I you are experiencing symptoms associated with osteoarthri-tis, consider seeing a physical therapist experienced in treatingorthopedic (joint) conditions.

He hascontinued his education in the areas o advanced manual therapy techniques and exercise prescription.

skills in small classroom-like settings with other kids in their age group.Jessica Meyer, co-owner and center director at Connections, a
center-based autism treatment provider in Kimberly, understandsthe importance o bringing kids with disabilities to a center-basedtreatment program.
“A center-based therapy center provides one-on-one therapy with the added benet o small group social skills training in acenter specically designed to enhance learning or children withdisabilities,” said Meyer.
“Resources are more extensive, there is oversight o sta andchildren can engage in play with one another while immediately generalizing the skills they’ve been taught individually.”
Outside socialization and center-based therapy also provide achance or the entire amily to spend some valuable time outsideo the house.
Oentimes, amilies raising a child with disabilities sacrice alot o their time in order to nd and maintain quality treatmentor their children.
Sometimes amilies even compromise their privacy at homewhen scheduling the necessary in-home therapy or their children.
Increasing a child’s social interactions truly helps promote and
maintain their mental health, as well as keeps everyone in theamily’s well-being balanced.

Everything in the universe contains energy, yet energy issomething many o us don’t understand. Every monthina Bensman, a practicing clairvoyant and energy healer,is here to answer any questions you have about your energy system. opics may include energy anatomy, dreamanalysis, chakra balancing, maniestation, lie patterns,etc. Te ideas written here do not replace medical atten-
tion. Always listen to your body, mind and intuition whenreceiving advice o any kind.
Dear ina,I have been ascinated with past lives since I went through a pastlie regression to understand unexplainable anxiety. I am curious.Do we have similar personalities in other lives? Is there anythingthat is the same about me lie aer lie?
—Lietimes o Old
Dear Lifetimes of Old,
Absolutely! Let’s backtrack a little to understand energy and the
soul a bit better.Pure spirit is oneness, the essence o love and instant commu-nication. As amazing as this is, spirit is limited when it comes togrowth and evolution. Why change i everything is grand? In orderto shi, our spirit acquired a soul set with a variety o intuitive gisuniquely placed to ulll a purpose — a spiritual vision. A soul cantravel and experience joys and traumas in order to learn and love.Each lesson helps shi the greater spirit toward a new stage.
Each time a soul travels, it experiences what we call a lietime. Inthe soul’s eyes, a lietime eels like a dream. When the soul “sleeps”
it experiences a lie. Sometimes the lives are similar, somthey are completely dierent. Just like dreams, each lietmessage. When the soul “wakes up” it may interpret the lisymbolism in order to continue evolving just like we woupret a dream to learn.
Going back to your question, there may be many partthat are similar in each lietime, just like in a dream. Otravels with the same clique called a soul amily. Memberamily will experience lietimes together over and over ayou may eel like you “know” someone that you’ve never malso may deal with similar issues in many lietimes, but t
thing that absolutely remains constant is your intuitive gicome directly rom your spirit and you always use thoseulll your spirit, soul and each particular lie purpose.

Tere’s no denying Generation Xers (born between 1965 and1980) are coming o age and they bring with them dierent atti-tudes when it comes to options or trimming their physiques to
look their best. Tis group, who are now competing with Genera-tion Y or employment and partners, preer to invest in preserv-ing their youthul appearance with the least amount o downtimeand absolutely no scarring. Tey want evidence o results and the
value o cosmetic enhancements without surgery described in astraightorward, sincere way with no hype.
Tere are several resources available to explain the options tocombat body changes that cannot always be addressed with dietand exercise alone. Inormational seminars, videos, beore-and-aer photos and educational messages posted by board-certiedphysicians on Web sites like RealSel.com can help people visual-ize the possibilities or themselves.
ruth be told, board-certied plastic surgeons can be just asskeptical as our Generation X counterparts about equipmenttouted as the latest and greatest or at reduction. Beore our prac-tice considers oering a procedure, we do extensive research andask many questions. We attend seminars by the American Society o Plastic Surgery and spend hours asking questions o the makerso the technology to ensure it delivers the results promised.
A non-surgical at-reduction technique that does work time andtime again is Coolsculpting® by Zeltiq™. Te CoolSculpting proce-dure utilizes a precisely controlled cooling method called Cryo-lipolysis™ to target, cool and eliminate at cells without causingdamage to other tissue.
CoolSculpting is cleared by the Food and Drug Administration
or dermal cooling on the body as well as non-invasive at layerreduction on the ank region, or love handles, via cold-assistedlipolysis. Te result is a gradual and natural-looking at reductiono up to 22 percent. As long as the patient maintains regular dietand exercise, the long-term results remain stable.
I you eel you are a potential candidate or CoolSculpting, youshould be near your normal weight using the Body Mass Index(BMI) measurement. Tis usually means a patient is about tento twenty pounds over their ideal weight. It’s also important orwomen who have had cesarean procedures and are concernedabout the eectiveness on scarred tissue to know this procedurecan work or them as well. Your specic situation and questions
can be addressed by a board-certied plastic surgeon oering theCoolSculpting procedure during a consultation.
“The result is a gradual andnatural-looking at reductiono up to 22 percent.”

A decision to choose between synthetic vs. human hair isespecially hard now that there are so many dierent andancy names associated to numerous synthetic hair types:
heat resist; natural ber; mixed ber; human-like; and humanhair blend, just to name a ew. Some hair companies actually put“human hair” in the name o their products in hopes that thewording will help sell more units. Tey like to give the illusionthat there is actual human hair in their product. We have been tolddirectly by companies exactly what to say and how to market theirsynthetic products. Do not be deceived by the intelligent word
play, no matter the name, synthetic hair can never be human.Synthetic hair blends are basically the same, with the exception
o a ew. Most synthetic hair is made rom nylon, plastic bers andother man-made materials that are processed in a actory, thencolored to imitate hair bers. Synthetic blends look realistic ora time, but i you need this hair long term (everyday use) yourinvestment in a synthetic will be short lived.
Heat resist wigs and extensions have become very popular overthe years as a cost eective alternative to human hair. However,many have come to realize that you can only use minimal heat,which makes it virtually impossible to hold a curl or straighten toa desired style. All heat resist hair breaks down with each stroke o
the at iron, curler or other thermal tools, which gives them a liecycle o about 2-3 months without proper restoration.Human hair eels better, lasts longer and can be styled as your
own natural hair. Human hair takes longer to break down becauseit still has natural nutrients within its strands, which gives it a liespan o one year or more (everyday use) with proper care. Somehuman hair is better than others; the more live the hair and theless processed, the longer it will last. Human hair, as opposed tosynthetic, can also be colored, permed or relaxed. I you decideon this, it is suggested that you have the hair processed by a hair
proessional. Chemical processing has the same eect onhair as it would on your own natural hair. Processing tec
such as coloring, perming and relaxing take nutrients, stnatural composition o the hair and speed up the damage
Live human hair is unprocessed human hair that hpreserved in its natural state (unchanged). I have experienhuman hair lasting three years and still counting. Howevetenance is always key, no matter which type o hair you For those choosing a wig, hair extensions or hairpieces osity, human hair is the best option. Human hair is reusable be more comortable, lightweight and manageable.
Using the knowledge o a wigmaster is your best souchoosing a wig, hairpiece or extension service that best suneeds. Wigmasters spend a number o years specializing
only the wig-making process, but they also have extensiveedge in hair types and textures. Most people cannot telllooking i the hair they choose is live, processed or even syWigmasters have been trained to tell the dierence andanyone’s best source o hair knowledge.

One o the most amazing properties oundin an organic sugar is glycolic acid. Tisnatural alpha hydroxy acid is used in many anti-aging and beautiying skin treatmentsor its ability to improve the skin’s appear-ance and texture. Glycolic acid is believedto help reduce wrinkles, scarring and evenhyperpigmentation. It also protects againsttoxins and helps to exoliate the skin, weak-ening the binding properties o lipids thathold dead skin cells together, exposing
resh and healthy live skin cells.When you regularly exoliate your skinwith a sugar scrub, you’ll quickly nd yourskin becoming healthier in appearance andunction. Aer dead skin has been exoli-ated, your body’s largest organ is enabled towork more eciently — expelling toxins andtaking in nutrients. Regular use o organicsugar scrub can also help to combat ingrownhairs that may pop up on your arms, legs orelsewhere on the body. By removing deadskin cells and helping the skin to become
more moisturized andpliable, hairs can moreeasily release and pointback out o the skin.
For the best results, usea sugar scrub on legs whiletaking a shower. Aerrinsing the skin with acleansing body wash, use
scrub to exoliating andcondition the body. Spend a minute or twomassaging the scrub on your skin, payingcareul attention to dry areas like elbows andknees. Rinse the scrub, and with it all o yourdead skins cells and dirt will be removed.I shaving, next shave legs as you normally would. Te oil base will help to lubricatethe razor — leaving your legs looking andeeling amazingly rereshed and healthy.

You may think that exercise and arthritis don’t t welltogether, but that’s simply not the case. A common myth isthat i you have arthritis, you should not exercise because it
could damage your joints. However, research shows that exerciseis an important tool in managing your arthritis.Starting an exercise program can seem like a daunting task, so
talking to your doctor or physical therapist about how exercisecan t into your current treatment plan is always the best way tostart. What types o exercises are best or you depends on your typeo arthritis and which joints are involved. Your doctor or tnessproessional can work with you to nd the best exercise plan to giveyou the most benet with the least aggravation o your joint pain.
Even though your joints might be sore when you rst start, exercisecan help you improve your health and tness without hurting your
joints. Along with your current treatment program, exercise can:• strengthen the muscles around your joints;•help you maintain bone strength;•give you more strength and energy to get through the day;•make it easier to get a good night’s sleep;•help you control your weight; and•make you eel better about yoursel and improve your sense o
well-being.
You might think exercise will aggravate your joint pain andstiness. Lack o exercise actually can make your joints evenmore painul and sti. Tat’s because keeping your muscles andsurrounding tissue strong is crucial to maintaining support oryour bones. Not exercising weakens those supporting muscles,
creating more stress on your joints.Again, always check with your doctor beore starting an exer-cise program, but whether you begin with a physical therapist,personal trainer or other tness proessional, these are the exer-cises you might begin with:
Range-o-motion exercisesTese exercises relieve stiness and increase your ability to moveyour joints through their ull range o motion. Range-o-motionexercises involve moving your joints through their normal range
o movement, such as raising your arms over your head oyour shoulders orward and backward. Tese exercisesdone daily or every other day.
Strengthening exercisesResistance exercises help you build strong muscles thsupport and protect your joints. Weight training is an exaa strengthening exercise that can help you maintain, or iyour current muscle strength. Do your strengthening eevery other day — but take an extra day o i your jopainul or i you notice any swelling.
wo types o strengthening exercises are Isometric and I“Isometrics” can help strengthen muscles without painul joints. Isometrics involve no joint movement, bustrengthen muscle groups by using an alternating series omuscle exes and periods o relaxation.
Isotonics involves joint mobility. However, this group cises is more intensive, achieving strength development increased repetitions or by introducing increasing weightance such as with small dumbbells or stretch bands.

o supportive walking shoes, and it’s less stressul on joints thanrunning or jogging.
Biking can be a good choice or people with arthritis because itplaces less stress on knee, oot and ankle joints.
Hydrotherapy, also called “aqua therapy” (water therapy), is aprogram o exercises perormed in a pool. Aqua therapy may beeasier on joints because the buoyancy o water takes some o theweight o the painul joints while providing resistance training.Swimming is also oen recommended because there is minimal
pressure on joints while in water.Appropriate recreational exercise, including sports, can be
helpul to most people with arthritis. Tese activities are bestpreceded by a program o range-o-motion and strength exercisesto reduce the chance o injury.
Other activitiesGentle orms o yoga and ai Chi can help improve balance andhelp prevent alls. Be sure to tell your instructor about your condi-tion and avoid positions or movements that can cause pain.
Regardless o the exercise program you select, it’s important tobegin slowly and choose a program you enjoy so that you maintain
it. Make exercise part o your daily routine so that it becomes alietime habit.

o get started, consider when your next check is coming in andwhen you will get to the bank, then pick a day o the week when
you will have time to set up your envelopes. I’d recommend nomore than ve to seven envelopes. Name the envelopes and deter-mine how much you can aord to spend or each o the categories.
Now, hold yoursel to the spending limits you’ve set or the two-week period (or one-week period i you’ve chosen to do envelopesevery week). Here’s where discipline comes in. When the enve-lopes are empty — SOP SPENDING!
Make do with the groceries you have on hand and look or reeentertainment. By lling the envelopes every two weeks, you don’thave to wait very long or “rells.” As you become more consciouso your spending habits, you will nd yoursel becoming pickierabout your purchases. Toughtul spending oen leads to more
money in savings. A cash-based system means writing ewerchecks, which decreases the likelihood o a checkingaccount problem.

E
ast Wisconsin Savings Bank is cele-brating 125 years o commitment
to Fox Valley people. Although thebanking industry has experienced signi-cant changes over the years, East Wisconsinhas remained committed to their originalpurpose o providing a good, sae placeor people to save while helping membersachieve the goal o homeownership. Tey truly have been walking the walk or 125years. As a local, member-owned savingsbank, East Wisconsin has continued theircommitment to the needs and liestyles o local individuals.
It all began in Kaukauna, Wisconsin in
1887 with a vision o Fox Valley peoplepooling their hard-earned savings togetherto provide homeownership or amily andriends. Back then, when D. J. Brothersdrew up the building and loan associa-tion’s charter in long hand; this was not anarea o satised homeowners as it is today.Tere were no electric lights, no waterworksor sewers, no improved streets and very limited school acilities.
Te industrial revolution was in itsinancy and railroad stops were just being
constructed in the Valley. At that time,Norman J. Brokaw, a local manuacturer,had a vision o providing an opportunity orlocal workers to own a home. Mr. Brokawknew that i workers were given the oppor-tunity to own a home, their amilies wouldbe stronger, they would be better employeesand the community would reap the benets.He saw the necessity or providing a meanso nancing the homes, and the building
and loan planpresented the most
logical solution.Brokaw saw thepotential o peoplehelping people toaccomplish a goal.
Te partner-ship began as localsavers, seeking agood sae place to save, provided homeown-ership or amily and riends. Each payday,members agreed to deposit a portion o theircheck into a share account. As unds accu-mulated, member’s names would be drawn
to borrow the money to build a home. Fromthat base East Wisconsin’s ounders estab-lished a wonderul legacy and thousands o satised homeowners and successul savershave ollowed.
Currently, East Wisconsin has six conve-nient locations (Kaukauna, Little Chute,Kimberly, Freedom, Appleton and Green-
ville) to enhance their ability to providethe most up-to-date banking products andservices.

Could you be chronically dehy-drated? Many people are and neverrealize it. Our bodies require at least

body to excrete waterthrough urination,rather than retainingit. Tink about a grape

to unction properly. I enough water isnot supplied, it must be taken rom within
the body. Chronic dehydration can causehistamine to become excessively active.Tis may result in symptoms that may bemistaken or other disorders such as aller-gies, asthma, heartburn, colitis, constipa-tion, rheumatoid arthritis and chronicpains in various parts o the body, such asmigraine headaches.
Most o the body’s water is ound withinthe cells, and the next largest amount isin the uid surrounding the cells. I wateris not replaced requently, this surround-
ing uid may continue to accumulatewaste material and other contaminates.Te pumps in your cell membranes may not work as eciently because allowingdirty water into the cell can cause cellulardamage or cell death. You wouldn’t bathe in
the same bath water without rst cleaningthe tub and adding resh water. Why would
you allow your cells to be surrounded by waste material?
In conclusion, water is vital to goodhealth and there is no substitute or it.However, years o chronic dehydrationcannot be reversed overnight by simply drinking a couple o glasses o water.Rather, water intake should be gradually increased. How do you know i you’redrinking enough water? Your urine shouldbe clear or lightly colored. Darker coloredurine may be an indication that your
kidneys are working hard to concentratethe urine. Water intake and uid balanceare among the least understood and mostneglected areas o health that I run into asa nutritionist. Here are some helpul tips tobegin increasing your intake:
• In the morning, ll a 64-ounce and nish at least this much byo the day.
•Leave post-it notes or set cell palarm reminders.
•Keep water containers that meauid ounces to keep track o homuch you drink.
•Create a “buddy system” with y
co-worker, riend or amily meto make sure you are drinking ywater.
•Add lemon, orange or lime slicavor!

Nathaniel Hawthorne’s short story, “Te Birth-mark,” hetouches on the power struggle between man and nature,
and what man thinks perection really is in this physical world. He
reminds us that humanity is not perect, no matter how much manpursues changing the laws o nature through science.Te main character in the book becomes obsessed with remov-
ing his wie’s acial birthmark, which he believes will then make herperect. In the end, the process o removing the birthmark slowly takes his wie’s lie. When the birthmark is gone, so is his wie. At thatmoment, the perection he nally saw was only achieved by her reach-ing the spiritual world.
Hawthorne’s message rom 1843 is still insightul and importanttoday: it is natural to have aws; they are what make each o usunique. While we accept imperections, such as birthmarks, whichcan be caused by abnormal blood vessels in the skin or by abnormalnumbers o skin pigment cells, as part o nature; man’s advance-
ments in science have made it possible to recognize and treat thetroublesome ones.
According to the Vascular Birthmarks Foundation, approximately 40,000 U.S. children are born each year with birthmarks that requirespecialized medical attention. Certain vascular birthmarks may inter-ere with vision, breathing or eating, while others may be cancerousor damaging psychologically due to the birthmark’s size andlocation. As a result, seeking help or a problem birthmark is not simply or the pursuit o perection.
Dermatology Associates o Wisconsin, S.C. under-stands that children need specialized care and last yearsought out a pediatric dermatologist to help their littlest
patients. Susan Keiler, M.D. joined the practice to makethat vision a reality.Te Chicago native received her undergraduate degree
rom Northwestern University and medical degree romUniversity o Illinois College o Medicine. She subse-quently completed her dermatology residency at CaseWestern Reserve University ollowed by a pediatricdermatology ellowship at Northwestern University/
Children’s Memorial Hospital in Chicago.Dr. Keiler, a board-certied dermatologist, and one o the
in the state who specializes in treating skin conditions or in
children, relates well to them. “I eel it is imperativethat the physician talks to both the parent andthe child. Children are oentimes scaredand nervous, so you have to put them atease,” she explains.
Dr. Keiler was clear to note that notall birthmarks need to be treated. Mostare harmless and ade during early childhood. Some, however, remainor even grow over time. “I have beentrained to know what to look or.When I observe troublesome birth-marks, I explain my concerns to the

Aside rom this overview, Dr. Keiler also has some advice orparents whose children may be suering psychologically, “Itell parents not to overly ocus on the birthmark, take numer-ous pictures and speak reely with their child when they start
to inquire about their special beauty mark. It isalso important to teach them what to say to other inquiring children. And, mosto all, instill in the children
that nothing is wrongwith them.” I the birth-mark is still presentby the time the childenters school, parentsmay want to get teach-
ers involved in class-room education.

“Working with children is rewarding, especially when one isable to see the eects o treatment and make a positive impact on

According to Dr. Keiler, there are two main types o birtred vascular birthmarks, such as hemangiomas and pstains, and pigmented birthmarks, such as moles and ca
spots. Within those two groups, the three most commonlydoctors are:
Portwine stains — These birthmarks are composed odilated small blood vessels in theskin that occur in 1 in 200 newborns.These lesions appear as pink patchesat birth and become darker andthicker over time. While in most casesportwine stains are not associated withother health concerns, when ound onthe ace, this birthmark can sometimesbe associated with eye problems likeglaucoma and neurologic problemssuch as seizures. Again, it is importantto be evaluated early by a pediatricdermatologist to determine i anyadditional work up is needed.
A treatment option or portwinestains is pulsed dye laser treatment. Itis sae and eective in treating inantsand young children. A burst o lightrom a laser is absorbed by the smallblood vessels directly beneath thesurace o the skin. “Most children
do well and demonstrate ading othe stain,” according to Dr. Keiler.
Hemangiomas — This type obirthmark is made up o extra blood vessels.They are quite common, aecting up toten percent o inants. Many times they arenot present at birth, but appear within thefrst month ater birth. Dr. Keiler estimatesthat around 50% ade by fve years o ageand 90% ade by nine years o age. Whilemost do not require treatment, that isnot the case with hemangiomas with skinbreakdown or hemangiomas whose locationmay lead to disfgurement or interere witheeding, sight, breathing and other vitalunctions. Please be sure to have the childevaluated early to minimize complications.
The most common treatmentsor hemangiomas are beta-blockers,corticosteroids and pulsed dye laser. Dr. Keileris especially pleased with the oral beta-blocker,propranolol, which is a new medicine usedor the treatment o potentially troublesomehemangiomas. “Propranolol reduces therisk o complications and scarring and
requently reduces the need or surgery inthe future. I enjoy seeing my patents respondso well to this medicine,” she exclaims.

oga is an ancient practice that creates a sense o unity between the body, mind and soul. It brings balance to other
parts o our daily lives so we can lead healthier and happierlives. Whether you enjoy hiking, running, biking, golng, tennisor ball games in the summer, a yoga practice will keep you eelingstrong and in the ow o your activity.
As you move your activities outdoors to enjoy the warmth o the sun, it is important to lubricate your joints and massage yourmuscles out o winter constriction. Yoga is key to reducing injury and enhancing athletic perormance. Summer sports oen causetightened muscle groups rom repeatedly engaging one set o muscles. Tis overuse o particular muscle groups can cause pain,misalignment and over compensation by other muscles in yourbody. Some o the areas aected are the hamstrings, hip exorsand hip rotators, and shoulders.
ight or imbalanced muscles along the hips oen result in lowback pain or cyclists and swimmers; tennis players and golershave shoulder problems; and knee pain is common with runners.I you play gol or baseball or example, and consistently swing theclub or bat with one dominate arm, you are increasing the strengthon one side o your back while decreasing it on the other, empha-sizing one side o the body. Tis can result in back and shoulderpain. You can add to that by having problems in the hip, creatingimbalances in the pelvis.
Outdoor activities are oen competitive, which can lead to stress.Power yoga can grab an athlete’s attention because it is a toughworkout and a good stretch at a aster pace. However, a slower-
paced ow or restorative practice is best or relaxing musclesand calming the mind. aking the time to slow down and gently stretch your tight muscles gives you the insight to know what isgoing on in your body and what areas you need to strengthenand heal. Deep breathing (pranayama) practices teach you howto move in and out o the pose saely and mindully. Learning tobreath properly will help you deal with a stressul situation and isan important tool in enhancing sport perormance.
Yoga has an abundance o rewards when practiced saely. Whenyou give yoursel the time to practice and meditate, you will learn
to breathe ully, have a healthier body, be able to cope wemotions and deal with stress, and to nd peace.Te only regret I hear rom my students about the
o yoga is, “I wish I would have started this years ago! Mwould not be dealing with this injury and pain.” So whatwaiting or? Now is the time to get on your mat and experiamazing benets o yoga!

I you ast beore your event, you couldimpair your perormance by depletingenergy, stored as glycogen in your liver,which your body needs or aerobic exer-cise. I you eat carbohydrates too closeto your event, you raise your blood sugarand signal your body to release insulin,which leaves you with low blood sugarand causes your workout to take a hit. Tis
also hinders the release o energy romyour liver. Both circumstances can leadto muscle degradation, lack o energy andthe proverbial “hitting the wall,” which I’msure we have all experienced at one time oranother (I know I have).
o exploit your grub to the ullest, chooselow-at, low-ber oods, medium to lowglycemic index carbohydrates, moderateprotein and plenty o uids several hoursprior to your workout. Tis will allow yourbody time to clear your gut o its contents so
you can avoid cramping up while allowingor uid absorption or hydration, main-taining an appropriate level o blood sugarand preserving glycogen stores, which areall integral components o achieving themost out o your workout.
For endurance athletes (>90 minutes),those in extreme environments (extremeheat, cold or altitude) or those with long,intense, interval training workouts, eatingadditional carbohydrates throughoutthe workout can prevent hitting the wallduring a workout by maintaining bloodsugar levels.
It is also important to reuel the body
within thirty minutes to one hour postworkout. Te stores o energy (glycogen)in the muscles are low because the body was eeding o o that energy. As a result,the muscles are more willing to replenishthose stores with as much energy as possible.Eating a carbohydrate rich (high glycemicmay be even more eective) snack or mealwithin thirty minutes to one hour o exercisecan provide the muscles with the energy they need. Tis will help uel the next workoutwhile aiding an athlete in meeting their daily
needs. It is also important to add protein tothe post-workout snack or meal to enhancemuscle protein building and repair.
Snacks, such as our rek bars, are packedwith protein, whole grains and healthy ats, such as mono and polyunsaturated
ats. Te protein will help buildand enzymes, and repair cells. Tgrains will uel you up with thepreerred energy source, while pyou with a wide array o benecialdants and cholesterol-ghting capTe healthy ats will work to improcholesterol, control blood sugars, drisk o heart disease, and aid in the

W
hat is all the buzz about “tapping”? Let me tell you! Itis all about Emotional Freedom echnique, or EF.
Its origins lie in ancient Chinese medicine rom 5000years ago and the development o acupuncture, a healing tech-nique that uses needles on areas on the “energy meridians” or thepath through which the lie-energy o our bodies ows. Acupunc-ture was not developed to treat emotional problems, but physi-cal ones. EF has also been named “emotional acupuncture,” o course, using a tapping technique instead o needles. It was devel-oped to heal emotional problems.
What practitioners o EF have ound is that the emotionaland energetic releases brought about by EF requently resultin proound physical healings. Te Discovery Statement o EFis that “the cause o all negative emotions is a disruption in thebody’s energy system.” Tere has been a great deal o medical
research done showing that stress causes chemical changes in thebrain, and these changes inuence the state o our physical well-being, as do unresolved emotional issues. More and more researchon EF has shown its positive ecacy on emotional issues.
EF’s history is also based on Applied Kinesiology (which usesmuscle testing to determine the appropriateness o any orm o treatment), developed by Dr. George Goodheart. In the early
1960s, he substituted simple manual pressure or tappneedles on acupuncture points and ound that he could obsame benecial results.
In the early 1970s, Dr. John Diamond, a psychiatrist, tGoodheart’s work a step urther by developing Behavioral Kogy, which adds stating or thinking an armation (a positiment) while at the same time manipulating acupuncture po
In the early 1980s, Dr. Roger Callahan, who speciaanxiety and phobias, put “tapping” and ocusing on the he was trying to help his patients resolve, together. He belietechnique would remove or lessen the ear causing the probsuccess was so great that he started to use this technique oemotional issues. During his experimentations he ound
used specic sequences o acupoints or dierent emotionHe would use Applied Kinesiology to determine the sneeded on an individualistic basis or each o his patients. Hthese sequences “algorithms.” His method o treatment waas “Te Callahan echniques” and later named “TougTerapy,” or F, another orm o tapping technique othEF.
In the later 1980s, Dr. Patricia Carrington, psychologGary Craig, an engineer and personal perormance coastudied under Dr. Callahan, tested Dr. Callahan’s techniqound that a single algorithm method could be just as as the more elaborate procedures o F. Tis single al
method is the basis o EF and can be used or a myriad lems ranging rom pain relie, anger, addictions, weiganxiety, trauma, depression, ears and phobias, allergies, tory problems, blood pressure, school, sports and sexualmance issues, serious diseases (rom migraines to cancer), rship issues, women’s, men’s and children’s issues, to name other words, or almost everything. Gary Craig gave this the name EF. Dr. Carrington named her technique Acuaer studying EF she started to only use this method. In 2Carrington developed the EF Choices Method, which

the process o EF by adding individualized armations insteado the ones commonly used in Gary Craig’s method.
Te basic recipe or EF is: Te Setup; Te Sequence; 9 GamutProcedure; Te Sequence (again); Te Reminder Phrase; andAdjustments or Subsequent Rounds. Your energy system is a seto subtle electrical circuits and is subject to a orm o electricalintererence that can block the balancing eect o the tapping.In the Setup Phase, the blockage (called Psychological Reversal)must be removed or the rest o the technique to work. A neutral-
izing armation is repeated three times while you rub your “SoreSpot” or tap on your “Karate Chop” point.
Te Sequence is the exact order o where to tap on the end pointso the major energy meridians in the body and the method by which the energy block in the energy system is balanced out. Youtap with your ngertips o the index and middle nger; tappingabout seven times on each point while repeating a “reminderphrase.” Te points are the eyebrow, side o eye, under eye, undernose, chin, collarbone, under arm, below nipple, side o thumb,index nger, middle nger, baby nger and karate chop. You alsorepeat your armation while tapping.
Te 9 Gamut Procedure “ne tunes” the brain by using eye
movements, counting and humming to stimulate the brain.Trough connecting nerves, certain parts o the brain are stimu-lated with the eye movements. Te creative side o the brain, theright side, is engaged when you hum, and the digital side o thebrain, the le, is engaged when you count. Aer the 9 GamutProcedure, you repeat the sequence again.
Te Reminder Phase is simply a word or short phrase thatdescribes the problem and is repeated out loud each time youtap one o the points in the Sequence. Subsequent Round Adjust-ments are done when only partial relie is achieved.
Te technique o EF seems to be very simple and can be usedby lay people and proessionals with their clients, but it is not to betaken lightly. Our emotions and particular problems have layers
to them and each layer must be dealt with to resolve the problem.EF can do this, but it should only be done with someone that istrained and skillul. Tere are not many side eects as this tech-nique is not invasive, and Gary Craig reported that at one timewith over 100,000 people using the technique that under 1% hadcomplaints. Tese were in the orm o eeling nauseous, eelingworse, crying or other orms o distress due to bringing up memo-ries that have been repressed. Some people can have these results
just thinking about their problem, or reliving a trauma or stressulmemory, so it is uncertain i EF was the cause o the complaints.
I EF is a technique that you want to use by yoursel, then gettraining. It is not advisable to go on the computer, get the steps
and do it. As a holistic psychotherapist, energy therapist and EFpractitioner that studied under Gary Craig, I have seen situationswhere only a proessional who is trained in their eld and EFwill know how to handle a person i they have “abreactions” due totheir serious illness or problem. Te best policy to take is, “Don’tgo where you don’t belong.” Use common sense and do not try toalleviate ailments that are beyond your capacity or training.

We all experience grie. Unortunately, at one time oranother everyone will suer a loss o someone dear tothem. Although people grieve in dierent ways depend-
ing on the nature o their relationships and their past experienceswith loss, the grieving process is quite normal and necessary. Griev-ing helps an individual adapt and accept the reality o their loss,work through the pain and adjust to all the lie changes caused by
the death o their loved one.Going through the grieving process is very dicult or people ingeneral; but or people with dementia, the process can be ar morecomplicated. People with dementia experience grie, but their reac-tion to their loss is largely aected by their own cognitive under-standing o what has happened to their loved one, the connectionthey had with the person they are grieving or and how well they canexpress their sorrow.
It is wrong to assume that because a person cannot remember thename o their missing loved one they do not eel that loss in theirlives. Tose with dementia generally live with eelings that things arenot right, or a constant state o “wrong-being,” but are usually unableto put their nger on what the problem is. Most individuals suering
with dementia are somewhat aware o their conusion and live withgrie over lost abilities, memories and understanding. Add in the losso someone dear to them and their conusion can be compounded.Grie and the mourning process can be experienced by those witheven advanced dementia, regardless o their cognitive ability toresolve or make sense o their eelings. So in most cases it is better toshare the news o a death than to try to pretend nothing has changed.
Tere are several considerations to keep in mind when helping abereaved person with dementia work through grie.
Choose careully when to share bad news — According toMelanie Bunn, RN and Alzheimer’s training consultant, consider-ation must be given to the bereaved person’s cognitive condition
when choosing when to share the news o a loss. Select a time o day when the bereaved is rested and eels comortable and sae. Many people suering rom “sundowners,” a type o dementia, nd lateaernoons and evenings especially challenging and would be betterable to process dicult news in the morning hours.
Choose careully how to share bad news — Have a amiliar andtrusted person talk to the bereaved in a clear, calm and simplemanner. It is best to have only one person relay the news o a death.People with dementia can be deeply aected by the emotionalclimate o grieving amily members and respond with increased
agitation and restlessness. Experts advise avoiding abstractlike “passed away.” It is much more eective to plainly sthe person “died.” Keep sentences short and do not overwhbereaved person with dementia with too much inormationBe prepared to requently repeat the inormation as they wtime and repetition to process it. Do not be surprised by a reaction or lack o response.
Help the immediate grie process — Tose suering romtia can benet by participating in the rituals o death. Accothe article, “Sharing Bad News,” by Melanie Bunn, it may bsary to modiy rituals to make them more workable or thewith dementia. She suggests private visitations rather thanpating in public gatherings, attending the uneral, but not thor hosting a local memorial ceremony rather than travelidistances to attend a uneral.
Aer the uneral, it is helpul or the individual sueridementia to reminisce about their loved one. alking aboutries while looking at a photo o the deceased will aid in the process. Oen the person with dementia needs help expressgrie and speaking to them using empathetic phrases will he
verbalize their mourning. According to Alzheimer Scotland“Loss and bereavement in people with dementia,” phrases lisound like you really miss him. ell me what you miss abmost.” aid those who have a hard time nding words to expemotions they eel.
Help with long-term grie — Constant assessment o the cstate o the bereaved is very important. Ignoring the mood oand trying to orce a person with dementia to understandcan be detrimental to the grieving process. ry to have all pcontact with the person diagnosed with dementia be consispatient as they work through their grie over time.

nishing it o very quickly, he said, “Tis salmon has a perectsweet glazed taste and is done to perection.” His guest orderedthe Citrus Grilled Shrimp and she agreed that entrée was perectly done. “It melted in my mouth, with just enough spice and sweetmixed with a bit o lime avor.”
One diner could not leave without ordering what FamousDave’s is known or … the ribs! When asked how they were, hewas rendered speechless because he didn’t want to ruin the experi-ence o eating them. Tey were just “that good”!
For me, the side dishes were as good as the entrees, as I enjoyedthe crunchy corn on the cob and house-made cornbread. I’m alover o coleslaw and Famous Dave’s has some o the best I’ve had,with a sweet and peppery avor.
As i we could eat anymore ood, we had to nish the mealo with the house-made pecan praline sauce bread pudding. Inormally do not even eat bread pudding, but I gave it a try andI’m so glad I did! Tis reminded me o a southern tiramisu. All o Famous Dave’s desserts are made in-house and are delicious!
Tank you or this un and delicious dining experience! We hada couple diners that had neverbeen to Famous Dave’s beore and
we will all certainly be back many times. It is also great to know thereis not only the traditional FamousDave’s ood, but also salads andthe new Citrus Grill healthy menuoptions available.

I you were to describe the dierence between an older person’sace and a younger person’s ace, the rst thing you mightmention is the natural wrinkling o the
skin that occurs as we age. And certainly this is a noticeable actor.
But there is another, more subtle actor
that also determines how old you look.Tat actor is your smile. Many changes canoccur with the teeth that can make you look older.
First o all is the shade. Over time, teethnaturally tend to darken due to the yearso exposure to things like coee, tea, redwine, smoking, etc. Tis staining becomesimbedded in the teeth, and thus cannot beremoved by brushing or cleaning in thedental oce. Fortunately, we now have the ability to whiten theteeth back to a more youthul-looking shade with our proessional
whitening systems.Te shade o the teeth is an obvious actor in how old you look,but there is another actor that you may not have thought o. Tatactor is the shape o the teeth. See, as you age, your teeth canslowly wear away. Tis can be dramatic or it can be quite subtle,but either way, tooth wear makes you look older.
In extreme cases, teeth can wear down to hal the original size oreven more. In subtle cases, the edges o the teeth become attenedso all o the ront teeth are the same length and look almost likesomeone took a le and attened them out.

Happily, I now enjoy walking into
my home without getting a hideouseeling looking at my countertops!Since buying our home in 2009, we havemade many updates and by ar the best deci-sion we made was going with Darboy Stone& Brick or our kitchen and bathroom coun-tertops. It seemed that every update madedid not make as big o a dierence as thisone. “Tis is by ar the best home improve-ment we have made so ar,” said my ancéeupon completion o the project.
Although the thought o paying more orgranite versus a traditional laminate scared
me a bit, the value it adds to the home iswell worth it. I did some checking around atmany granite companies beore I went to talk with Mark Vanden Heuvel at Darboy Stone& Brick and they were by ar the most proes-sional and helpul company out there.
Mark oered convenient nancing optionsthat made the home improvement very aordable or us. Becky was a tremendoushelp assisting me in choosing colors thatwould work with our cupboards. She allowedus to bring home a ew samples so we could
better see what looked best. Tey had many dierent colors and pricing tiers available.Along with the countertops, Darboy Stone &Brick oers dierent options or colors withtheir Kohler sinks and aucets.
When we made our decision to go aheadwith the project, I called Becky, who had arepresentative out measuring within twodays. Aer that visit, my countertops werehere within a week! Not only that, but Becky
oered the services o a local plumber,
who they trust, to help with the discon-nection and re-connection o our plumb-ing. I didn’t even need to be home theday the granite was installed. We just letthem in that morning and by the time wegot home rom work, it was done! I wasthe rst one home and got on the phoneright away with my ancéeand said, “I eel like we live insomeone else’s ancy, expensivehouse!” He couldn’t wait to gethome and see it!
Since putting in our counter-
tops, we have had two riendsgo with Darboy Stone & Brick or their granite as well. Bothwere equally impressed withtheir service. And they leaveyou some polisher and a bonuscutting board to match!
Not only does Darboy Stone& Brick oer many graniteoptions, but this amily ownedbusiness also provides brick and stone, replaces and stoves, and lime-
stone and landscaping materials. Darboy Stone & Brick is Northeast Wisconsin’spremier dealer in all things replace. Teirselection includes nine o the leading brandnames in the industry; rom wood to gas,inserts to stoves and custom surrounds.

On a recent girls’ day in Madison, Iwas reminded o the importanceo taking time or yoursel to relax.
You know, give yoursel a little downtime.
We become so wrapped up in our “to do”lists most days that we never even considerwhat we need “to do” or our own well-being!
Here are some simple ideas to incorporatea bit o relaxation and enjoyment into yourlie. ry one or try them all. I hope you’ll ndyou enjoy the experience enough to make it ahigher priority in your lie.
Try a walking meditation, it’s easy
and very relaxing. Tere are CDs anddownloads you can purchase or this, but itreally is quite simple. Put on your walkingshoes and head outside. You wouldn’t want
to have a pet with you. And i you are withanother person, just agree at the start thatyou are meditating so you won’t be visit-ing until you are nished. First, stand stilland take in your surroundings. Ten as youstart walking, beginning with your toes,eel everything. Feel the air between yourtoes as you walk. Feel the abric o yoursocks against your skin. Don’t judge, simply eel it, experience it. Move up your entirebody doing this. Feel the air against yourskin and the sounds o nature in your ears.
See the beauty around you. You can evenmake a point when looking at trees, to look between the branches rather than at thebranches. Tis can be done with tall grassand owers too. It’s a un new perspectiveto take. And when you are all done, chancesare good that you never thought about that“to do” list at all!
Try something new that you’ve
always wanted to do. Tis is your
chance to express yoursel creatively. Itcould be anything rom painting, singing,
taking photographs, playing music, dancing,drawing or even rearranging the urniturein your home. Anything that allows you toexpress yoursel is a great way to add relax-ation into your busy day. Again, steer clearo any judgment or criticism o what youproduce. It’s all about the process, not thequality o the nished product.
Listen to your heart about where to
spend your time. Don’t let guilt dictate yourschedule. I you have a parent asking you tocome over or dinner but you really, really wanted to take that solitary walk in the woods,
lovingly explain it just isn’t going to work outthis time. Te other person may be disap-pointed, but why is it we put others’ happinessahead o our own? Te benets o listeningto and ollowing your heart ar outweigh thestress, guilt and animosity that can be createdby decisions made out o obligation.
Pay attention to topics or items that
keep coming up in your lie. Tere may be a sign in there o something new youcould pursue or a hobby, pastime or cra.When I look back on how oen the topic o
meditation came up in my lie — going back to 1989 — I am amazed. O course it took until the past two years or me to actually connect the dots, there must be an open-ness and willingness to listen and see whatmessages you are being sent.
Finally, go or it! As a dear riend oensays, “Let nothing stop you.” Isn’t that a antas-tic quote? Another is, “Just do it!” Whiletrying new things can be a little intimidating,
you will learn through the process must never regret having gained new
edge. Tere are two things that can taken away rom us: love and knoNow let’s let go o our stress and get oand build some new experiences!

When thinking about one’s health, it is crit-ical to consider one’s tness regimen. Inthe world we live in today, it is extremely
easy to consume ast ood on a daily basis, as it isthe most convenient way to get it. People who eata lot o ast ood may not always think o the nega-tive eects it may cause. Not only is weight gain a
concern, but other health issues may arise by consuming too muchsalty, greasy ood.
Exercising daily, and watching how much, and what kind o oodone consumes, are o high importance. According to the Arthri-tis Foundation, “excess weight is known to aggravate bromyal-gia symptoms — such as pain sensitivity and sleep disturbances— and reduce quality o lie among patients. New research now
shows, the more severe the obesity, the more severe the bgia symptoms; and those who have a body mass index, or35 or higher experience the worst symptoms.”
Tose who receive in-home health care can help prevengain by going through rigorous exercises with their care wwhich may consist o range o motion (ROM) exercises ocal therapy sessions. According to the National AssociaHome Care & Hospice, “physical therapists (Ps) work tothe mobility and strength o patients who are limited or dby physical injuries through the use o exercise, massage anmethods. Ps oen alleviate pain and restore injured muscspecialized equipment. Tey also teach patients and ca
special techniques or walking and transer.”When reecting upon one’s health, as one who may beor disabled, it is important to consider exercise regimens to one’s needs. In-home health care providers can teach neniques, and provide patients with exercises appropriate oin the comort o their own homes.

I am called Green Cedar Woman. All o my lie, I have paidattention. Attention to visions, and to the dreams o sleep-ing and the dreams o waking. Tat is how I learned to ask
the trees, stones, and insects to show me their beauty and healing
powers. Sometimes I had to pay attention or a long, long time.Sometimes their answers came quickly as a deep inner knowing, asensation o energy, moving colors or even words.
I believe we all have these powers as children, but they becomedulled with disuse, as we become so busy learning to think, believeand do what others expect o us … or at least to pretend that thespider did not ask or and promise respect … or that visions areonly childish imagination. So perhaps you have orgotten knowingthese things. But i you say you have never elt a stone on the beachor orest path urge you to take it with you, you are lying.
I became Green Cedar Woman by loving and listening to thecedars growing around my home on the shores o Lake Michigan.Blackwol and his teacher, Eagle Woman, invited me to healing and
teaching sweat lodges on the reservation. Eagle Woman showedme the proper way to gather cedar or the Spirit rail. Spirits enterthe sacred re and the hot stones within. Once the hot stones arebrought inside, Spirits ollow the Cedar Spirit rail over the altarand into the lodge.
Fiy-our cedars surround my house, a living rosary. Some ormthe tall, thick windbreak. Tese have great dignity and solemnpower. At rst, they declined my invitations. Te small ones appearyounger, but these have been kept trimmed or decades to t thelandscape. Teir energy is light and playul, and they joyully agreedto give me their green leaves or the Spirit rail. So Joseph Many Horses gave me my Spirit name, Green Cedar Woman. Naming
ceremonies are sacred. Tat name is not how I’m known to amily and riends. It’s an energy identity by which Spirits know me.Blackwol and I are both therapists. At one time we worked
together at a beautiul small clinic sitting on a blu over LakeMichigan. One day he rushed into my oce and asked i I wouldleave work early to come with him to a naming ceremony. He wasgiving a name to a Mohican woman to honor her generosity.
I couldn’t attend, but decided to send a gi in her honor. My room held many treasures o pictures, eathers, stones, stonestatues and stued toys.

A rain garden is a shallow depres-sion that is planted with nativewetland or wet prairie wildowers
and grasses, and that allows rain water to
collect and lter naturally into the ground.Rather than letting rainwater wash pollut-ants into local water bodies, a rain gardencaptures that water and slowly lters outthose pollutants. Nutrients are used by theplants and pesticides are broken down by microorganisms in the soil. Rain gardensallow 30% more water to soak into theground than a lawn. Tey also attract birds,butteries and mosquito-eating dragonies.
Rain gardens are best planted in thespringtime or ease o plant establishment.Planting in the summer will work, but
requires more care and watering or plantestablishment to take place.
Next, pick a site that has good drainage,is at least 10 eet away rom the house, isnot over a septic system, and has a slopebetween 1% and 10%. Full sun will allow thelargest selection o plants. Tere are options
or part sun to part shade as well. Also, keepin mind that in the Fox Valley, we tend tohave clay soils with more alkalinity than
acidity. A soil test will let you know exactly what you have. o determine drainability,do a percolation test: dig an 8-inch deephole and ll with water, allow to drain andrell; i it drains again within two hours, thedrainability is acceptable.
Beore digging, call digger’s hotline:#811 or 800.242.5811.
Rain gardens can run anywhere rom100-300 square eet. A 10 oot by 10 oot by 6-8 inch garden works well in sandier soil. A10 oot by 20 oot by 2-6 inch garden workswell in heavy clay soils. Te size and number
o beds will depend on how much suracearea there is to collect rom, so observe themovement o water in your yard. Generally,rain gardens are placed on the perimeter o a yard to capture rain (or sump pump) waterbeore it washes into a roadway.
Use native hardy perennials that can

For decades, osteoarthritis has simply been considered a parto aging — but not anymore. Recent research shows that olderpeople don’t have to suer rom osteoarthritic pain. Also,
surprisingly, people much younger than 65 can develop osteoarthritis.
What is osteoarthritis?Osteoarthritis (OA), or degenerative joint disease, aects morethan 20 million Americans and is more common in women thanin men. Te disease aects cartilage — slippery tissue on the endso bones that meet in a joint. Normally, cartilage helps bones
glide over one another. In an OA patient, however, the cartilageis broken down and eventually wears away. As a result, instead o gliding, bones rub against each other, causing pain, swelling andloss o motion. Although the majority o patients with OA are 65and older, recent research shows that OA is not a by-product o aging. Family history o OA, being overweight, lack o exerciseand prior joint injuries are suggested as OA risk actors.
How is osteoarthritis diagnosed?OA is diagnosed through a combination o clinical historyexamination and x-rays. Other tests, such as drawing uthe joint, are sometimes used. Signs o OA include:
• steady or intermittent joint pain;• joint stiness aer sitting, sleeping or not moving
or a long time;• swelling or tenderness in the joints; and
•a crunching eeling or the sound o bones rubbingagainst each other.
I you experience any o these signs, consult your heaprovider. While the diagnosis is relatively easy to make, itharder to establish whether or not OA causes the patient’toms. Tat is why the treating doctor needs to not only mdiagnosis, but also rule out other disorders and conditionsmake the symptoms worse. imely diagnosis and treatmhelp manage pain, improve unction and slow the degener

Should osteoarthritis patients exercise?Exercise is one o the best orms o OA treatment — and prevention.It strengthens the muscular support around the joints and improvesand maintains joint mobility and unction. In addition, exercisehelps control weight and improve the patient’s mood and outlook;important actors inuencing the severity o the symptoms.
I you sufer rom OA, consider theollowing exercise tips:
•
Low-impact or non-weight-bearing activities such as swim-ming, stationary training and light weight training work bestor OA patients.
•Use strengthening exercises i the key muscle groups that relateto the unction o the joints are weakened by degeneration.
• I you are overweight, start exercising careully, so as to notput too much stress on the knee and ankle joints.
•Stair climbing, water aerobics, Teraband workouts andsimilar exercises will help to keep the joints mobile withoutstraining them.
•Learn to read the body’s signals and know when to stop, slowdown or rest.
How can your chiropractor help?Doctors o chiropractic, by the nature o their work, can detect theearliest degenerative changes in the joints. Tey see the impact o degenerative changes in the spine, as well as in the hands, hips,knees and other weight-bearing joints. Doctors o chiropractic arealso trained to relieve the pain and improve joint unction throughnatural therapies, such as chiropractic manipulation, massage tech-niques and physiotherapy. Doctors o chiropractic can provide exer-cise counseling, helping you choose exercises that are best or you.I a sore or swollen joint prevents you rom exercising, talk to yourdoctor o chiropractic about other drug-ree pain-relie options. Inaddition, your doctor o chiropractic, dietician or nutritionist can
help you choose proper supplements that may play important rolesin OA prevention and treatment.

According to ayurveda, when the body’s natural unctionswork smoothly, all is in good health: easy menstruation,regular elimination, restul sleep and strong digestion. Diges-

That is a question I get occasionally.My response is a deep sigh ollowedby, “Tat is based on a lot o dier-
ent actors.” It is not a simple answer. Many actors have to be considered. So let’s start atthe beginning o the process.
You need land to grow grapes. Has thisland been in your amily or generationswith grapes or did you just buy the landand plant the vines? Or did you just buy the grapes and rent space to process it
into wine? Or is it a combination o estategrown ruit and purchased ruit? I the areais known or amazing, age-worthy wines,this can drive up the cost o the land and theprice o the wine you sell.
Tis brings us to the next step. Can youmachine harvest the grapes or do you haveto pick by hand because the slope o the hillis so steep you cannot use machines? Whatabout the soil? Do you have to return thegravel soil every year because it gets washedout rom the heavy all rains; like in the
Northern Cote du Rhone area o France?But beore you pick the grapes, did youhave a great year like every other armer andnow there is a glut o grapes on the market,which just drove the price down per ton? Ordid you lose hal the buds to a bad springwith hail or rost? Washington State winesusually cost more because winters can be tooharsh on the vines. Te vineyards need toreplace some o their vines every ew years.
Do you own your own equipment or areyou part o a co-op and you share or rentequipment to help keep production pricesdown? Aer the grapes are picked, are youhand sorting them to make sure only the bestare used? Are you using stainless steel or oak to age your wine in? I you use oak, are youusing new oak? Is it French or American?
Tey vary in price. And don’t orget to actorin shipping costs o the barrels. Maybe youare using neutral oak barrels. Or passing thewine through oak chips or adding oak oil tomimic the oak barrels.
Tose oak barrels you are using to age thewine take up a lot more square ootage thana stainless steel tank. Tey also require a lotmore man power than a single tank. Howlong are you bottle aging the wine beorereleasing? Tat also requires square ootage.
Don’t orget about basic economics:
supply and demand. How much demand isthere or your wine and how much did youmake? Ten you have shipping costs, possi-ble import/export taxes, advertising, etc. toactor in or the cost o that bottle o wine.
So as you can see, it is not an easy answer;and I didn’t even cover all the items that candrive up the cost. Now some o you may bewondering i the more expensive wine isworth it. Tat is a whole other article!

“When you breathe, you inspire. When you do not breathe, youexpire.”—Author Unknown
It seems that no matter where you are today, there is so muchtalk about the benets o yoga. People o all ages and walks o lie are participating in the practice, and doctors are requently
recommending it to their patients as a way to manage their healthcare in a more holistic and empowering way.
o help you step into the world o yoga condently, you may want to become amiliar with some basic inormation.
“Connect with your breath” is one o the rst instructions astudent new to yoga will hear. Breath is what energizes and guidesus. It is what denes us as being alive. Yoga’s Ujjai breath is knownas “victorious breath.” It is a deep, audible breath, considered to beboth energizing and calming. Te breath is so powerul, in act, thata complete yoga practice could be to simply be still and breathe!
Yoga is an Eightold Path that aligns us with Consciousness,allowing us to connect with the Oneness. It is a true mind/body/spirit practice. Asana (the poses) is the third step on the path.
I you’re looking to begin practicing yoga asana, there is a prac-tice that is just right or you, regardless o current level o physicaltness. Everybody can benet rom practicing yoga!
For the very inactive, elderly or sedentary, chair yoga may
be appropriate. Sitting in a chair, one can move througmotions to increase mobility within the physical body. Brecirculation improve, which also helps to move energy thr
the individual. An increase in range o motion is possible, aor more ease in everyday movements needed to care or oRestorative yoga is another orm o yoga, in which b
pillows, eye masks and other supportive props may be usorm o yoga is particularly eective or supporting the hethose who are in recovery rom surgery, mental/emotionlenges and addictions, and is also helpul in healing oneIt is considered a more passive practice, where the goal isinward and simply breathe. In a secure, relaxed position,energy is accessed rom within.
Tere are many more orms o yoga asana, and many vaon them, depending on the teacher, ocus and philosophyyoga, Kundalini, Astanga, Anusara, Iyengar, Bikram and
Vinyasa are just a ew you may have heard o. Some teachtrained in more than one method, and will oer a combinorms in their instruction. Te types mentioned run throm slower-moving to more active orms o movemenactive practices help us to burn up and release that whiclonger needed. Increased strength and exibility are athrough movement.
Te nal word, “Namaste,” uttered at the end o a yogis to honor those present. It translates to, “Te Divine me honors the Divine light in you.” Honoring our higheallows us to unction in the realm where all is possible, wheis no misunderstanding and peaceulness exists. It is a r
o who we truly are: a unique expression o the One, thethe Universal Lie Force, the Light, Consciousness. Whatechoose to name it, it all comes back to the Breath.

“A man’s mind may be likened to a garden,which may be intelligently cultivated or
allowed to run wild; but whether cultivated or neglected, it must, and will, bring orth. I no useul seeds are put into it, then an abun-dance o useless weed seeds will all therein,and will continue to produce their kind.” — James Allen, “As a Man Tinketh”
I the mind is indeed like a garden, asJames Allen suggests, we can reect onthe types o seeds that are planted and
growing in our garden and make adjust-ments as we see t. A garden is objective.
You can look at the garden and clearly
identiy what is a weed and what is a useulor beautiul plant.Many, i not most seeds in the garden
o our mind are planted purposeully;such as the positive things we are taughtas children, the good habits and atti-tudes, thoughts about what is required orsuccess. Some seeds are a result o negativeinput rom someone outside ourselves ora negative experience; any experience weinterpret in a earul or negative way.
Te accidental, negative thoughts andexperiences that are like weeds in our
garden can be removed or pushed out. Itcan take eort, much like the eort it takesin reclaiming an old ower garden thathas been invaded by weeds due to neglect.Some o the weeds in a garden can easily be removed by pulling them out with theroots. Other weeds, like dandelions, aremore dicult; one must trace the dande-lion to the tap root and eliminate all therunners and check back in the next daysand weeks to come that the dandelions areeliminated or good.
Te useul plants and owers will likely need ertilizer and perhaps other attentionsuch as dividing them up or giving the rootsmore room to spread out. Once the gardenis cleaned up and the owers and useulplants tended to, you can enjoy the beauty and all the good that the garden gives.
When you start out with a garden youusually make a map o where each plant willgo, so staying with that metaphor, draw a
large square on a sheet o paper as
or the “garden o your mind.” In thmake a list o the positive thoughtudes and habits you would like to “the garden o your mind,’’ and list anbad habits, negative thoughts and athat you would like to eliminate outsquare. Just like i you pull weeds them outside the garden; so you pold bad habits outside the gardenmind where they can wither away.
Every day, look at the garden mind and “water’’ your positive thattitudes and habits, and remind
that the “weeds’’ are drying up anering away. I you have a garden yard, whether a ower garden or vgarden, any time you water it, wetend it in any way, remind yourselyou are tending and caring or the in your mind, how your mind is eor all that is good and that your to the positive in your mind is gyield positive experiences in your dend your garden o your mind aand summer long, just like you do
or vegetable garden and you will thoughts, habits and attitudes cbeautiully as you reap the positivand experiences it brings orth.

Let me attempt to explain soul release with an example.
It’s a Wednesday night and I am ready or bed. Sameroutine as most, I’m sure; with the addition o a medita-tion session beore slumber. All is seemingly well. I remove my headphones, place my hand-held CD player that holds my weekly lesson on the oor next to my bed, turn o my lamp, pull thecovers up over my shoulder and lay my head on my pillow. I briey listen to my husband and my puppy breathing in deep sleep. It’stime or me to join them!
Suddenly my heart starts to beat rapidly. I start to perspire. I amthinking, anxiety? Panic attack? Why? Tis doesn’t make sense.My husband starts tossing and turning. It then occurs to me, thisis not mine. Tis belongs to a lost soul. An earthbound spirit i youwill, desiring a soul release.
I give instructions on how they get to their destination. I reas-sure them that all is orgiven and that only love awaits them. I say a prayer requesting guidance and sae delivery o this lost child o God, and roll over to continue what I had started.
Tursday night, same routine, ollowed by meditation and sleep… so I thought! I let out a deep sigh o slight annoyance. I rollon my back, open my eyes and request we talk during the day,as I am very tired. See, the lost soul had not been satised withmy crossing over procedure due to the act they had more to say.Earthbound spirits, being they have not crossed over, still harbortheir ego selves and are not very concerned i I would preer tosleep than help them at that place and time.
Te spirit explains they have been trying desperately to getsomeone to listen to them. I then explain that I am no help toanyone without rest. I choose to turn over and sleep; disregard-ing the protests. At approximately 2:30 a.m. I am awakened by a very vivid dream. Te three last things I remember are: a van,holding three or our people, rolling over several times; many dogsbarking; and a date, or what I believe is a date — 3.13.2008.
Tere was a voice saying, “I have tried to get someone to listenor our years now.” I repeated the date — 03.13.08. Okay, I canremember that.
Spirit: “NO, WRIE I DOWN!”Me: “I don’t have anything to write on.”Spirit: “YOU NEED O WRIE I DOWN!”So I get up gently, not to wake anyone, go downstairs a
it down. I attempt to gure out the clues, which turn out they needed to share in order to let go and crossover.
I am glad to report my room and mind have since beeTe soul has been released to the light and is now at peace
Tis example illustrates one orm o soul release. I interested in this topic and would like more inormation,
to contact me.

As the owner o a pole exercise studio,I am constantly meeting womenwho think they have something
wrong with them. When women are think-ing about starting pole the most requent
question asked is, “Can I still do pole eventhough I’m at, old, out o shape, weak, etc.?”My answer is always “yes,” because the ocuso pole tness is sel empowerment. Pole isabout nding your own inner strength andenjoying it! So I explain this and the womenare curious enough that they sign up or aclass. But then they get our introductione-mail stating that they need to wear shortsand I get another panicked phone call.
Shorts are required or pole because skinsticks to the pole. Even the most basic pole
spin, the reman, requires that you useyour knees or a grip area so you must showyour legs. As your pole tricks become moreadvanced, the more skin will need to show.For example, to sit on the pole you needthe skin o your inner thighs to help gripthe pole. So as your tricks become moreadvanced, your shorts get shorter; advancedpole work is conducted in a sports bra andshort shorts.
Ladies entering Level 1 show up in yogapants. Tey attempt to roll up the pantsor the required moves and dance in pantsthe rest o class. Quickly they realize this isuncomortable as a rolled up pant is oentoo tight at the thigh when bunched or can’tbe rolled up high enough. So or week twothey walk in wearing what looks like theirhusband’s gym shorts. Te week two shortsare almost all the way down to the knee, sothey can push them up just that little bit.
My question is, “WHY?” Why are
women so terried o their legs? I “she’sgot legs and she knows how to use them”is any indication, we should be celebratingour legs, not hiding them! But that is my thought now, when I started pole in 2007in Australia, I was one o the students terri-ed to show my knees. I had three kneesurgeries and have the scars to show or it.I have cellulite. And in my pre-pole lie Inever wore a skirt that was above the knees
and you’d never catch me dead in sBut then the empowered sport
came into my lie. I went through pants, to gym shorts, to pole “bootytransormation. Aer a ew weekcomortable wearing my shorts in studio. Te other women and I bonded and as I looked around all oimperections and no one was lWe’d show o our bruises rom week

with pride. I started to seethat the scars on my kneeweren’t as visible when my knee was holding the poleand supporting my body weight. Te scars were stillthere, but now my kneeslooked powerul.
Ten one hot, Austra-lian summer day I walkedout o the pole studio aeran awesome class andorgot to put my sweatpants back on. I walkedto the train station and realized, when I eltthe carpeted seat on the backs o my legs,that I was in shorts — in public. PANIC! My heart rate jumped and I elt sel conscious.I immediately reached or the sweatpantsin my bag, but as I was wrestling them out
I looked around the train and saw that no
one seemed to care. No one seemed to seehow my upper thighs looked like cottagecheese on the seat. Tere and then I decidedthat I should embrace me outside o the polestudio as well as inside.
So with summer coming up, I want to
tell women all over that it’s ok to show your
knees. Te legs we see on Vwalking sticks don’t have celluthey also don’t have muscletion. Our legs have taken us the journey we’re on and orshould be celebrating themour legs are capable o is aWe should be proud o ev
