Prevention: Taking Care of You
It wasn’t until I provided cardiac rehab to a 54 year old woman, who had to live in a nursing home, that I quit smoking. A constant stream of 5 liters of oxygen couldn’t keep her from feeling she had just run around the block when going from her bed to a chair in the same room. While working at nursing homes and hospitals I witnessed what can happen to us during the mid to later stages of life. For many reasons, I am grateful to have had several years of these experiences. It showed me what can happen to us based on the decisions we make, how we care…

What is Energy Healing?
How would you describe your energy level? How does it feel to be in your body? How do you feel about yourself? Your relationships? Your work? Some of these answers may give an indication as to how your energy is flowing… or not so much. Energy or qi (chi) is the vital force in and around our bodies that gives and maintains life. It is a virtual blueprint and foundation of our being; the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of ourselves. When it is flowing properly we feel at our best.

First I’d like to share why I began providing massage therapy. You may know that I am an occupational therapist. Occupational therapists assist individuals to be as functionally independent as possible with physical activities, and cognitive and psycho-social abilities in all areas of their lives. We work closely on a team with physical therapists, speech therapists, doctors, nurses and other professionals. I chose this profession so I could be a coach and cheer…

Spirit in Music
My friend and amazing pianist, Steven C Anderson, just released an originally composed and divinely channeled CD all about Spirit! The track titles and inspirational messages they convey are just as beautiful as the music itself. Some of the titles are “Knowing”, “Be Here Now”, “Letting Go”, and “Interconnected.” Here’s what Steven C has to say: “I went deep – read a lot of books, reflected on life A-Z and found new inspiration from simple everyday life! The result… Spiritual Piano was recorded live with a small “intenders” group. I explained the inspiration and message of each song prior to recording. Click here to read what inspired each song.
