Mindfulness and Acceptance – What Does it Mean?
Mindfulness is all a buzz now, and for good reason. Mindfulness shows us how to be with and accept our reactions to our experiences in a non-judgmental way.

Happy Valentine’s! How Much Do You Love Yourself?
With Valentine’s just around the corner, we often turn our attention to “that someone special” or romantic love. Intimacy and connection with others is important to us, but how much do you love or even like yourself? After 7 years of providing deep emotional support and healing after being trained in “Emotional Clearing”, a form of interactive guided mindfulness meditation, similar to Vipassana, a Buddhist meditation which means “clear-seeing”, and what Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction is based on, and providing Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), I have witnessed how all types of emotional, psychological, spiritual, and often, physical pain go back to how much a person loves and accepts or rejects…

What can be done to help with managing moods, feelings, and accompanying aches or pains? Chances are if you experience symptoms of depression you have already looked in to ways to help lift your spirits. Seasonal Depression may be unresolved feelings, emotions, past wounds, hurts, and false or limiting beliefs that are often already there, in the subconscious lying dormant during warmer months, that likely get triggered with colder days and darker…

Summer – Staying Healthy with the Seasons
“Summer Time and the living is easy!” This is the time of year to soak up the sun, enjoy the flowers, green, growth, and nature in all its glory! According to the rhythms of nature and within the context of the Chinese 5 Element theory, Summer is governed by the Fire Element. This can be seen and felt by the stronger Sun and expansive energy of longer days and shorter nights. The Heat of Summer and the strong Yang energy are reflected internally. The meridians, or energy pathways, associated with this element are the Heart, Small Intestine, Pericardium, and Triple Warmer. The pathways can be assessed to determine the energetic…

April is Occupational Therapy Month: OT Observations & Trends
Throughout my 15 years as an Occupational Therapist, I have often considered how to promote and help people understand what exactly Occupational Therapy is. I have contemplated this many times, because most people don’t fully understand it and would benefit from learning how it might help them or a loved one. When April rolls around, it is time to get the word out about this wonderful profession. Do you know what Occupational Therapists do?
