What Does a Griever Really Want to Tell You?
by Randy Stocker
About Me View My Posts
Wouldn’t it be nice if we could read the mind of someone who is grieving? We know that they are hurting from their loss, but they won’t accept our help or listen to our advice? They are asking themselves, “Why did this happen? Why can’t I cry? Why did God do this to me?” We really want to help, but just don’t know how. I lost my mother, Jean, and my two daughters, Jenelle-age 19, and Amy-age 9 to a... 1/30/2023 5:00:00 AM

3 Considerations to Improve Your Life
by Avery Neal, PhD
About Me View My Posts
Our soul is our very essence, it’s the part of ourselves that makes us who we are. It is separate from our body, which is simply our outer form, our shell, the home in which our soul resides. As we go through life, most of us become consumed with external factors, stressors, other people and even our physical form. As a result, we become less aware of our internal self, our soul, and what it truly... 1/29/2023 5:00:00 AM

Are Omega-3 Fortified Eggs Worth the Extra Money?
by Lisa Steele
About Me View My Posts
When you scan the grocery store shelves trying to figure out which brand of eggs to buy, all the egg carton labels can begin to blur into one - "farm fresh", "cage free", "pasture raised", "organic", "omega-3 fortified", etc. It can be difficult to decide which carton to buy to be sure you’re getting the best eggs. With egg prices rising, especially if you are buying organic eggs or eggs with added... 1/26/2023 5:00:00 AM

5 “Healthy” Foods That Aren’t So Healthy
by Rob Greenstein
About Me View My Posts
There’s nothing more sneaky than a food product that’s marketed as “healthy” but is actually far from nutritious. Every year, the food industry launches over 250,000 new products for our grocery shelves. While 85-95% of those products fail, there’s something fishy about all these new products, especially those marketed as “good for you.”Unfortunately, a majority of the packaged products you see advertising... 1/22/2023 5:00:00 AM

Getting enough sleep is essential to living a happy and well-balanced life. Without the necessary 7-9 hours of daily sleep your body cannot perform optimally. Lack of sleep can make you grumpy and irritable and can negatively effect your brain’s ability to function. If we consistently don't get enough sleep it can even lead to irregular heart beat, heart disease, high blood pressure, heart failure... 1/18/2023 5:00:00 AM

How Well Are You Prepared for a Major Disaster?
by Fred Fletcher
About Me View My Posts
We have seen several significantly-damaging national disasters in the last 25 years—most recently, there were the downing of the twin towers in New York and the extensive devastation by Hurricane Katrina. Both of these catastrophes had major negative implications, not the least of which were the cost of repairs (when feasible), lost productivity, and the lost revenue from diminished tourism, cancelled... 1/15/2023 5:00:00 AM

The Mini At-Home Retreat to Cure Overwhelm
by Ali Katz
About Me View My Posts
I don’t know about you, but there are days I feel like my self-care is sandwiched between work, making lunches, school projects, homework, grocery shopping, making dinner, doing dishes, and carpool. Even though I rise before the rest of my household to get in my daily meditation and a bit of journaling, self- care is about more than just that. I like my days to be full of it! For me, self-care includes... 1/14/2023 5:00:00 AM

About Me View My Posts
With all of this talk lately about VA scandals and the need to improve the quality of care for our veterans, AND the fact that Memorial Day is coming up soon, I thought it would be appropriate to share some information about the benefits of massage therapy for the treatment of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Over the years I have worked with many active and former military clients, from all... 1/13/2023 5:00:00 AM

Dogs barking. Kids crying. The boss yelling. There are bills to be paid, the lawn to be mowed and appointments to be kept. Every day can start off with the alarm clock feeling like a pistol at the start of a race and you steaming ahead to the finish line, trying to get it all done before night falls and you collapse into bed.Most people have "to-do lists" which can stretch out to two and three pages... 1/11/2023 5:00:00 AM
