Stephen Jenkinson looks to transform our views on death
Society needs to take a different perspective when it comes to death, according to Stephen Jenkinson. “People’s expectations around their own death don’t come from themselves,” he explained. “People don’t generate this stuff, they’re heirs to it. “It comes from somewhere — all our fears and beliefs about death come from a much broader context, and the context is culture.” Jenkinson, is featured in the documentary Griefwalker and has two workshop. Stephen is a Harvard-trained theologian who has traveled far from Western religion, Jenkinson says there is a "hole inside most of us and it's in the approximate shape of a soul." Jenkinson bears a message that most do not want to hear: that death is not something to be denied or avoided-but "befriended. "The skill of dying is the same skill as deep Living. I'm trying to teach dying people something of how to Love their dying life." - Stephen Jenkinson.

Creatine - So Much More Than a Sport Supplement, by Nelson Narciso B.Sc., R.P.
Creatine is an essential and naturally occurring nutrient produced in the liver, kidney, and pancreas from the three amino acids methionine, arginine, and glycine, but begins to decline with age. It is naturally present in several foods but higher quantities are found in herring, salmon, and beef. For years creatine has been seen as the ultimate sports supplement, as a large body of evidence has shown that creatine can increase strength, speed up muscle recovery, and reduce lactic acid levels, to name a few. However, many fail to recognize the enormous therapeutic benefits it can offer. Listed in this article are some of the conditions creatine has been clinically shown to benefit:...[ Read More]
Have you heard of the Charter of Health Freedom? by Lorna Hancock
Maybe by now, you have heard about the Charter of Health Freedom and are wondering what it is? A bit of background... government has repeatedly asked natural health consumers what we want for natural health products, and we've repeatedly said "We want natural health products to be treated separately, differently, than drugs. We want them to be legislatively protected, and appropriately regulated, so that all of our choices can be there for us. [Click Here to read full article]
Knowing your Pulse / Heart rate
Your pulse is your heart rate. It is the number of times your heart beats in one minute. Pulse rates vary from person to person. At rest your pulse rate will be lower and it increases when you exercise. It increases because the heart needs to beat faster to pump through and supply more oxygen-rich blood to the working muscles. How to take your pulse: [ Read More...]

Children aren't happy with nothing to ignore, And that's what parents were created for. -- Ogden Nash, 1902-71

Cranio Sacral Reflexology- Basic & Advanced
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. Dr. Faure-Alderson has a school in Paris and England and is coming to the OKanagan. BC - More Info
