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.

See it! Feel it! Believe it! Achieve it!
Welcome to 2014! Many people begin the new year with new goals and intentions for what they want to release in their lives and what they want to invite and bring into their lives. What is it you want to create in your life? You probably know what would be ‘good’ for you. However, there are often things that get in our way of manifesting what we desire.

The Power of the Mind in Healing

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…
