June 2008 OK In Health E- Magazine
Hello Everyone,
I am back after a marvelous two weeks of traveling from Canada all the way down to Disneyland with our three kids in our motor home (now for sale :O). It was a great two weeks. On the way back we saw the amazing giant redwood trees, vibrant ocean along the Oregan coast and all the amazing scenery along the way.
Now, it is the start of the visitors. We have a month of family and friends arriving from Ireland and other places. After their long flights, I love to treat them to a relaxing shiatsu massage or reflexology treatment. This helps them with their jet-lag, sore muscles, and strengthens their immune system. See our OK In Health practitioners in your town.
One of the goals of OK In Health is to support each other in a trusted network but to also educate too. We were awarded the SOHF health & wellness award but I would like to give thanks to the amazing people who have joined and supported OK In Health in up-to-date articles, research, and information.

Community Events at your fingertips!
Have you ever wanted to attend a community event, health show, weekend retreat, workshop, movie, fitness class, or find a local practitioner or support group?
Well, OK In Health is a website that is a great resource for finding all this. OK In Health is an on-line Magazine that offers a variety of integrative information for our physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
The editor, Maria Carr started OK In Health in 2004, as she felt there was a need to have one place to help communities to connect. She felt that it was better to hear about an event before rather than afterwards. Since then, the website has become the main place to find community events, workshops, fitness classes, wellness information, contests, articles, and more. |

With the arrival of summer comes a general feeling of wellness and a sense of health and vitality. As a result, many of us feel we can stop using key nutritional supplements that have the potential to benefit us year round. One such product is whey protein. What Sets Whey Protein Apart? Whey is the most rapidly absorbed protein with the highest Biological Value rating (measure of protein retention in the body) and provides all the essential amino acids we need for our bodies to function properly. It also offers tremendous therapeutic benefits including anticancer activity, osteoporotic benefits, immune modulating effects, antimicrobial and prebiotic properties, antioxidant activity, cardiovascular protection, and intestinal support. Needless to say, no other protein offers nearly as many health benefits as whey. Whey Protein and Exercise Most of us are more active in the summer than any other time of the year. Outdoor activities like cycling, roller-blading, and walking are all great forms of exercise that allow us to take advantage of the summertime climate. As a result, the body’s demand for protein increases. {Read More}
What is being Indigo? by SharonTaphorn, Vancouver
According to New Age beliefs Indigo children are highly sensitive with a clear sense of self-definition and a strong feeling that they need to make a significant difference in the world. They are empathic and can easily detect or are in tune with the thoughts of others, and are naturally drawn to matters concerning mysteries, spirituality, the paranormal and the occult, while opposing unquestioned authority and contradictory to convention. They are also said to feel a strong sense of entitlement. [Read More]

| Signature Cell Healing is a non-invasive touch healing modality which focuses energy on the ’signature cell,’ or God cell, which lies within the pineal gland. |
This all-important cell holds the memory of our cellular perfection and our original life blueprint.

Pioneered by Kahu Fred Sterling, (www.kirael.com) based on ancient Lemurian wisdom, this integrative method of healing continues to evolve exponentially as practitioners apply Signature Cell Healing techniques with profound results. In this intensive weekend workshop you will learn to integrate Signature Cell Healing techniques into your daily life and into your existing healing practice. Blending Lemurian Wisdom with Modern Science.
We will explore: Prana Breathing, The Ten Principles of Consciously, Creating Trinity Points, Lemurian numerology, The role of Photon, Energy Blockage removal, The chromosomes of youth and vitality, Stem cell information, Changing your thought patterns, The ‘Rouge cell’ that creates cancer, Developing your sixth sense, Working with cellular consciousness, Using colour and sound, Developing nerve conduction, The weave of the four-body system, Ancient streams of healing and travel. |

OK's 150 Organic and Natural Gardening Tips
# 1 - Do not overfertilize garlic or it will become leafy. Use a high phosphorus fertilizer (the middle number) to promote bulb formation.
# 5 - New beds need soil amendments and double digging for that extra starting kick. 6. Soak finished compost in water to “brew” compost “tea,” a nutrient-rich liquid that can be used for foliar feeding or for watering plants in your garden, backyard, or houseplants.
# 13 - When planting in clay soil, cover seeds with vermiculite instead of clay. Clay absorbs heat and may bake the seeds and stop germination. Clay also forms a top crust, forming a barrier for the young seedlings.
# 148 - Mix small seeds you are going to broadcast seed with sand before spreading. This makes for more even seeding. After sowing, spread with a light cover of mulch or soil.

| Cranio Sacral Reflexology - with Dr. Martine Faure-Alderson |
November 13 & 16
Penticton, OKanagan |
Cranio sacral is the name given to the approach to osteopathy developed by Dr Sutherland 100 years ago. He saw how the bone structure of the skull permitted slight motion and noted that restriction of normal motion due to injury, trauma or disease could affect health. The cranial osteopath works gently with the bones in the skull and associated bodily systems to remedy such conditions. The Reflexologist can achieve the same result by combining an understanding of cranio-sacral therapy with conventional reflexology, since the bones of the feet reflect the skull and sacrum exactly.
Mrs Martine Faure Alderson is a fully qualified Osteopath with 40 years experience in private practice. In addition, in 1970, Mrs Alderson was awarded a Doctorate in Homeopathy and General Medicine. She is also qualified in Acupuncture, Herbal Medecine and Reflexology. She has a school in Paris and has taught Postgraduate students of reflexology since 1968. She holds her seminars throughout Europe and teaches in America, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand.
