Colette Baron-Reid - Spiritual Intuitive Louise Hay Caroline Myss - Medical IntuitiveDoreen Virtue - Angel TherapyLisa Williams - Psychic Medium

Hello Everyone,
I am back from a marvellous week of seminars in Mexico on the I Can Do It! At Sea - cruise with Hay House. I was so blessed to meet and hear speak, Wayne Dyer, Louise Hay, Caroline Myss, Doreen Virtue and I even had a reading from Sylvia Browne. I spent seven nights on an intimate cruise with psychic Sylvia Browne, plus spiritual intuitive Colette Baron-Reid, stress management and humour consultant Loretta LaRoche, and psychic medium Lisa Williams! Sylvia explored the many temples and halls that exist on the Other Side and explains how they all hold wisdom for us all. I would like to thank my friend Diane, as a mother of three young kids, this was a gift that was beyond even my imagination.

Glutamine

Glutamine… The Healing Protein by Elaine Munro, an active business woman and training athlete, who conducts seminars focussing on active lifestyle & healing nutrition, as well as raising consumer awareness about the natural health industry.
Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body, but in stressed, healing or active individuals, the demand outweighs the supply. What is truly amazing is the variety of functions that depend upon or are improved with abundant supplies of glutamine. Glutamine supports the natural synthesis of our key anti-oxidant and immune-boosting chemical, “glutathione”, which provides overall disease-fighting insurance. It also helps prevents pathogens from entering the system, primarily through the intestinal wall.

Thyroid Disease and What You Need To Know by Christiane Northrup, M.D.
Statistics show that one in eight women between the ages of 35 and 65 and one in five women over the age of 65 have some form of thyroid disease. Hyperthyroidism results from the body producing too much thyroid hormone, but far more common is hypothyroidism, the result of not making enough thyroid hormone. About 26 percent of women in or near perimenopause are diagnosed with this condition.1 The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland located in the area of your neck just below the Adam’s apple.

Fibromyalgia National Awareness Day is May 12
Myalgi. . . what? by Sheryl Ann Wilson, Founder / President of SOFA – Sunny Okanagan FM-ME Assoc
Friends talking: “Your friend is just not the same, she seems to be no fun anymore. She’s not coming out to skate and ski and do all the fun things you always did together, what’s up with her anyway? I don’t know, she said she has something called, myalgi. . .I don’t know, I can’t even say it, so how can I know what it is?” It is FIBRO – MY – ALGIA (Fibromyalgia). This is a devastating illness where the person looks on the outside completely fine, but on the inside, they are very ill. [ Read More]

Essential vs Fragrance Oils - Part 1: by Klaus Ferlow, Vancouver
While Canadians are familiar with synthetic fragrance oils, by and large, they have little or no knowledge about therapeutic health benefits of genuine, pure essential oils. Unlike North America, in Europe, high quality botanical plant derived essential oils are prescribed for internal use by medical doctors in hospitals. In the last decade essential oils have become a popular item, sold everywhere, which raises the question, “Does the consumer really know what they are getting?” [ Read More ]

What is a stroke?
A stroke is a sudden loss of brain function. It is caused by the interruption of flow of blood to the brain (ischemic stroke) or the rupture of blood vessels in the brain (hemorrhagic stroke). The interruption of blood flow or the rupture of blood vessels causes brain cells (neurons) in the affected area to die. The effects of a stroke depend on where the brain was injured, as well as how much damage occurred. A stroke can impact any number of areas including your ability to move, see, remember, speak, reason and read and write. [ More details]

Cranio Sacral Reflexology - with Dr. Martine Faure-Alderson

Cranio Sacral Reflexology

November 13 & 14 Thurs & Friday Basic Level
and Nov 15 & 16 - advance course

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.
