to go to the of ce with a proper lunch prepared. Well, I got in a rut.
I favored canned soups, with an emphasis on beans and/or vege-
tables that were quick, easy and tasty. In this case, convenience
and tasty = high sodium. Soup in a can is faster, but not healthier.
When I planned ahead to make homemade versions of my favor-
ite soups; minestrone, bean, split pea, etc., I reduced my sodium
content while enjoying my comforting, warm, healthy foods. My
next focus is to reduce my consumption of fller crackers and bread
with my soup. Lesson learned: Preparation is strategic; with both
fresh fruits and vegetables to eat on demand, and vegan meals for
mealtimes especially at the of ce.
5. Consume flling foods and beverages
In cooler weather, I favored healthy cofees and teas over water
to warm my body. But water is an easy, natural flling beverage.
Homemade vegetable broth was one way I creatively consumed
warm water. Additionally, I drink lemon and hot water in the
morning as a quick, warm detoxifer. But to fll up I didnt
focus enough on low-fat, fber-rich foods. When time was tight,
I made convenience a priority. I over-consumed canned beans
and hummus (with pita chips or crackers), and under-consumed
fresh, low-fat foods like apples, brussels sprouts, and broccoli.
Frozen fruits and vegetables dropped my body temperature just
thinking about the idea. It was another example of getting in a
rut. My biggest challenge was eating the right amount of calories
and flling foods at the right time of day. I commonly found I was
hungry at 8:30 pm as a result of not eating properly at dinnertime.
I started preferring popcorn before bed, and messing up my diges-
tion and sleep practice.
Yes, mistakes happened, but with much happiness. Its a growth
opportunity and a healthier lifestyle in development. As my energy
increases and my blood pressure decreases, Im happy to make
mistakes as each failure demonstrates accomplishing another
phase in my vegan journey. Its not about the hiccups; its about
the healthy lifestyle. Bring on an abundant summer harvest!

Indoors
Keep it cool. Dont turn of the air conditioning simply
because you wont be home. If its incredibly hot indoors, pets
will become uncomfortable. Keep a ventilation source avail-
able, such as an open window, turned-on ceiling fan or leave
the A/C set to low.
Leave water out. An indoor water bowl is a necessity, too.
Check before leaving the house that there is plenty of water
available to all pets.
Offer comfort. Summertime ofen comes with loud thun-
derstorms, motorcycles passing by or freworks. Tese loud
noises can startle pets. Routinely check on animals to be sure
they arent frightened or doing damage to the house from
being scared. If you will be out, have a neighbor check on the
pet. A radio lef on or a television can help mask the summer
sounds and soothe a scared pet.
Groom the pet. Talk with a groomer to decide on a cut
thats comfortable for the pet. While many people assume
shaving of all fur is the best option, fur actually insulates an
animal. Removing it all can put the pet at risk for sunburn.
Other Tips
Walk dogs early in the morning and in early evening so that
the jaunts take place when the weather is cooler.
If youll be taking a dog along on a hike during warm weather,
be sure to pack enough water for both of you.
Consider the use of dog booties to protect pads from hot
pavement.
Dogs may not be allowed on beaches during the summer
tourist season. Check ahead before
planning a seaside adventure.
Warm weather helps parasites multi-
ply. Dont keep food lef out or it may
attract bugs and become spoiled.
Check with a vet about medica-
tions that can ward of ticks
and feas, which tend to be
in full force during warm
weather.

root chakra to red. It is interesting to note
that the respective colors of the chakras
follow natural law as it relates to defracting
light into a rainbow; a confrmation that
chakras are not contrived by new-agers but
an ancient truth of the human condition in
that their resonance follows natural law.
Chakras metabolize energy and help
us to sense our environment around us
by taking in energy and sending it out. It
is possible for one or more chakras to be
operating less than optimally which is
something an energy worker (Reiki, recon-
nective healing, Jin Shin Jitsu, therapeutic
touch, etc.) can help balance through an
energy healing session.
To someone who is highly clairvoyant
(has psychic vision), a chakra looks like a
vortex with many smaller ones within it. A
vortex looks like a tornado or how water
forms a funnel when it goes down a drain.
Te word chakra comes from Sanskrit,
an ancient language from the territories
that pre-date India. Sanskrit is to Hindi, as
Latin is to English. It means something like
wheel or vortex, and while we have thou-
sands of chakras, there are seven major
ones that are most commonly referred to
in the mainstream. Understanding chakras
and what each represents is integral to
understanding the human energy body.
Over the last 20 years, more and more
people are becoming familiar with the
terms and chakra, resonance and aura
and they are ever more mainstream.
By learning about chakras, what they are
and how they work, it is generally easier to
better understand and manage ones own
energy and potentially ones overall health.
Tere are many types of treatments that
support healthy energy fow for chakras
that many of us do intuitively without
even realizing it and other treatments that
you can receive from energy workers. For
example, just going out into nature and
enjoying its simple beauty, fresh air and
birdsongs can clear many of the chakras;
a mother rubbing a childs back can help
to strengthen and clear the childs chakras.
A more immediate and powerful way to
strengthen and clear your chakras is to do
Reiki, acu-tuning, acupuncture, or some
type of energy work.

As awakened beings, we then apply these feng shui principles into
our home and of ce designs and as we do, we actually become
directors of this energy to bring about specifc results in our life.
Aware or not, the energies of nature have a great infuence
on us. Te moons phases are said to directly afect our moods
and womens menses. Living in natural settings and nourishing
ourselves with natural foods strengthens our bodies. All of these
things happen regardless of our religion.
Feng shui ofers an awareness for us to excel and prosper in life.
We must respect and understand the ways of nature, and when we
live by them, we can progress and evolve into who we are intended
to be. Tis is the basic purpose of feng shui: to live our best life
on earth.
In the various religions of the world, man has created diferent
names and images for God this higher intelligence, or divine
source. However, at the root of most religions is a similar goal
to believe in a higher divine intelligence that creates and protects
us, ofering guidance when we seek it.
In the practice of prayer and meditation we are using our
thoughts to communicate with God, or the omniscient power by
whatever name we choose to call it. In our prayers we seek such
desires and qualities as peace of mind, wealth, health and
happiness for ourselves or for our loved ones.
In feng shui, our thoughts are actual things that have
an energy or frequency that can infuence our objectives.
Tis power is cultivated through meditation and creative
visualization to bring about our goals and desires, such as
personal success or the health of a loved one. Te practice of feng
shui then is wisely utilizing a natural, God-given gif. We simply
need to be aware of the blessing.

Shui consultant. Her passion is helping people fnd their
path to living a happier, more fulflling life. Please see her

heme iron ingested can be absorbed, versus
about 1 percent absorption of iron salts.
Te best liver extracts come from beef
cattle raised without any chemical sprays,
pesticides or antibiotics on the grassy plains
of Argentina. Also, youll want a predi-
gested form of liver extract which is broken
down to be more readily absorbed by the
body. And, unlike eating liver, a concen-
trated extract (one using 20 lbs. of liver to
make 1 lb. of extract) doesnt have any fat or
cholesterol.
Combine with vitamin B12
for even more benefts:
Combine this natural liver extract with
methylcobalamin. Tats the highly absorb-
able form of vitamin B12 that requires no
biological transformation because it is
made ready for absorption.
Symptoms of B12 defciency include:
tiredness and feelings of weakness, irritabil-
ity, vision difculties, loss of appetite, poor
memory, brittle nails and prematurely graying
hair. Vitamin B12 can help if you sufer from
sleeping difculties, too. It plays a role in
melatonin production (the sleep hormone)
that helps you get the rest you need.
While meats, poultry, eggs, fsh, brewers
yeast, dairy products and seafood can
provide vitamin B12, you could eat all
of these, and still have a defciency of the
vitamin. Tats because your digestive
system may lack a protein called intrin-
sic factor that converts a common form of
vitamin B12, cyanocobalamin, to the meth-
ylcobalamin form that the body uses best.
Folic acid a key partner
to vitamin B12
Another key member of the vitamin
B family is folic acid. Symptoms of folate
defciency have a lot in common with B12
defciency: fatigue and irritability, muscle
weakness and headache.
Because many of the processed foods
that are fortifed with folic acid are grains-
based, individuals with gluten sensitivi-
ties arent likely to get the folate they need
through diet alone. And although folate is
found in dark leafy greens, broccoli, cauli-
fower, and pinto beans, the absorption of
folate from these sources is only about half
of what youd get from folic acid.
Folic acid works with vitamin B12 to
reduce levels of homocysteine, an amino acid
that can damage the cardiovascular system
and collagen the cushioning material
between the joints. It is an excellent choice to
add to your active supplement regimen for
energy and healthy exercise recovery.
Tis combination of nutrients can help
correct any defciencies that may have
been slowing you down. Itll provide better
natural energy, reduce fatigue and recovery
time from exercise, provide a sense of well-
being and a host of other benefts. If you feel
that your workout (or just your busy days in
general) need a boost, it really can pay to go
back to the basics!

Turston said. Trough hard work and
commitment, he has overcome some of the
earlier challenges he faced with the move
and now wants to learn how to tag apparel.
During Blechas time with Goodwill, team
members have seen his willingness to learn
and improve his skills, and his positive atti-
tude in approaching any task.
Since joining Goodwill, Nolan has
learned the importance of working as part
of a team, Daniels-Turston said. He
always has a smile on his face and is very
committed to his work. His presence at the
store really motivates all of us because we
see what Nolan achieves every day, and that
he is truly committed to doing a good job.
According to Blecha, he likes all of the
team members I work with, and I enjoy the
work I do in apparel.
His parents, who are both teachers, have
told Daniels-Turston how pleased they
are with the experience their son is getting
through Goodwill and the Ashwaubenon
store, and how comfortable they are in
knowing he is in an environment where
people truly care about him.
In addition to working at Goodwill,
Blecha is involved in Special
Olympics and, earlier this year,
took second place in basketball.
He also plays soccer and bowls.
All of us are very proud of
Nolan and his accomplish-
ments and are delighted that
he has been selected as Good-
wills Outstanding Achiever for
May, Daniels-Turston said.
Each month, Goodwill
NCW selects a volunteer or a
program participant like Blecha
for its Outstanding Achiever
recognition. Te honorees come from one
of Goodwills 22 store communities, its
Menasha campus or its Ralph B. Shiner
Center in Appleton.
Keith Wilk, COO of Programs & Services
at Goodwill NCW, said the awards are a way
for the organization to recognize the strides
that our program participants have made,
in part, because of the services provided
through our Goodwill. Each honoree
receives a certifcate of achievement and
Goodwill merchandise.

Turston at cdanielsthurston_gw@gwicc.

the internet. Is there anything special about these workouts? Do
you think its worth the money to invest in one?
Answer: Tats a good question. I have a few friends that have
followed P90X and some other popular programs as well. Here
are my thoughts. Many of these programs are just practical adap-
tations of some of the latest and greatest ftness research, ofen
coupled with some traditional exercise equipment. Add an expert
with a vibrant personality, and youve got a recipe for a successful
program. Do these types of programs work? Sure, if you follow
the program, stay committed and push yourself (though the
expert is usually pretty good at that, too). Tat said, I wouldnt
say theres anything special about them. Many (but not all) are
simply spin-ofs of Body Pump, with some high-intensity interval
training thrown in for good measure. Tis type of training works
well regardless of whether you follow a structured program or not.
Plus, I would argue that a certifed personal trainer at your local
health club could design a better workout for you, simply because
its personalized. Teyll take into account your personal health
statistics, ftness level, time constraints, and many other variables.
And theyll be there with you through it all in person! So, is
it worth the money to purchase one of these programs? It might
be, but your success really depends much more on you, and how
dedicated you are to reaching your goals.

right: when you use chemical lawn care
products, be it from a lawn care company
or a four-step program from the hardware
store, you are actually supporting Ameri-
cas dependence on oil. Even worse, afer
the treatment dries, it becomes airborne
and continues its devastation. (And by
the way, weed and feed is an oxymoron.
Chemical pesticides kill grass seed as well
as weed seed!)
Take a look at my sign. It says No Pesti-
cides have been applied! It says its safe to
walk, work and play on the lawn. Tats
because customized organic lawn care will
not kill you, plain and simple.
So, lets summarize
If you see one of those guys signs, stay
away from that lawn! Tis means that that
lawn is extremely dangerous, even accord-
ing to them! Ten again, if you see one of
my signsyoure good, its safe! Tear out
this article, and give it to your neighbor
who is using these companies or products.

some simple assistance in making wise spending, saving and
investment choices, most people would be amazed at how quickly
their personal assets will grow.
Anyone who wants to enjoy a fnancially secure retirement, and
not have to work, must understand and implement four savings
and investment basics:
Develop a realistic monthly management plan for your 1.
income (a household budget), which includes ongoing
regular savings, even if a small amount;
Start saving as early as possible preferably in your 20s or 2.
30s, taking the fullest advantage possible of tax-deferred
compounding (long-term growth with taxes paid in
retirement);
Stick with your savings plan; 3.
As your savings increase to levels which can be maximized 4.
through active investments, understand your personal toler-
ance level for investment risks.
Tanks to the increased IRA contribution levels created by the
Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001, there
has never been a better time to save money for your retirement
years. For individuals age 50 and older you have an opportunity
to make catch-up contributions. Catch-up contributions provide
individuals with an opportunity to exceed standard contribution
limits. I would strongly encourage everyone to contribute the
maximum amount to a Traditional or Roth IRA each year.

responsible for afecting overall circulation and health. With their
extensive and decades-long experience in laser technology, taking
care of large veins with RF waves and specialized lasers is a natural
ft for these surgeons.
Large vein issues and treatments
Large veins in the legs can be prone to deep vein thrombosis
(DVT) when blood clots form. Patients also develop venous refux
disease when the valves in the veins stop functioning or become
damaged. Te saphenous vein, running from the foot to the groin,
is ofen afected by these issues. For some patients, the pain they feel
is hard to describe. Tey describe heaviness, like they are walking
with weights on their legs. Tenderness, itching, burning or throb-
bing in the leg may also occur if clots partially or completely block
the vein. Many patients minimize their symptoms, as they dont
remember when their legs felt good.
More than one non-invasive treatment option is available to treat
large veins. Each patient responds diferently, so it is important to
choose a board-certifed plastic surgeon ofering more than one
solution, including VNUS closure and advanced laser technology.
With VNUS closure, the board-certifed plastic surgeon uses
ultrasound to scan the leg(s), to see if venous disease is present. A
tiny closure catheter is inserted into the diseased vein, delivering
radio-frequency (RF) energy light to the vein wall. Te energy heats
the vein from the inside out, causing it to close. Once the vein is
closed, blood reroutes to other healthy veins.
Laser treatment of large veins involves an intense localized pulse
of light targeting the afected area. Te surgeon may choose a
combination of VNUS and laser during the procedure to achieve
the best result. Regardless of the options used, patients resume
normal activities within days of the procedure.
Small and thread vein treatments
Board-certifed plastic surgeons with vein expertise can treat
large and small veins in a few of ce-based appointments. Tey
implement secondary closure techniques, such as microstab phle-
bectomy, to treat smaller veins. Te skin is numbed over bulging
veins and the surgeon removes a small section. Te echosclerother-
apy procedure is also popular and efective, with a solution injected
to close the vein under ultrasound guidance.
Te tiniest of veins, thread veins, can also be treated by a board-
certifed plastic surgeon with vein expertise. Veinwave technology
uses microwave energy to heat the vessels and is efective in delicate
areas such as the ankles and the nose.
When considering treatment of big and small veins, it is impor-
tant to evaluate a practice based on the experience of the board-
certifed plastic surgeon and his or her philosophy regarding total
vein care. Te end result of doing your homework and asking
specifc questions during a consultation will mean healthy and
beautiful legs for you.
Dr. David Janssen is a board-certifed plastic surgeon with Fox Valley Plastic
Surgery, based in Oshkosh. Te practice, co-owned by Dr. David Janssen and Dr.
William Doubek, ofers facial aesthetics, breast surgery, body contouring, advanced

Tey may act as a bridge to

a community of crystals is

Physical maladies may be addressed by healers using geodes to
treat brain disease and tumors. Also, geodes help in the assistance
of one to correct mental imbalances. Te healing of hands, lungs
and nervous system may be aided by geodes.
When geodes are totally flled in with mineral formations they
are referred to as nodules. Nodules may be equally stunning to
geodes. Varying from formation to formation, you will be amazed
at what may be inside these rocks.
So, for a grown-up surprise that rivals the joy you felt as a child

Follow your
hearts desire
43 June 2011 | Natures Pathways
www.naturespathwaysonline.com
of nowhere when we least expect it, so never question a random
act of kindness.
Tose random acts are by no means random. Remember when
I said that we have to ask when we are in need? By asking we are
opening ourselves up to any and all possibilities. We may have a
specifc picture or plan in our heads of just how it should happen
but what may surprise us is that we may have similar results by
a completely diferent way of getting there. Again, its out of our
hands. We just have to hold tight to faith and trust.
You may wonder why Ive mentioned this faith and trust thing
more than once. Well you see, Im just reminding myself of it as
well. For some, including myself, trusting in the unseen while
having faith without doubt and fear on a daily basis can be nearly
impossible. Tats why if Im able to take this leap of faith and follow
my heart, anyone can do it! And Im glad that I did because now I
can help others as well.
I started writing this well before I made my decision to follow my
heart so I had no idea where the thoughts and words were taking
me. Once the decision was made I knew I wanted to share this
experience with others and the words started to fow. I want to let
other people know that it is safe to follow your heart!
I still dont have a plan. I still dont know where this journey is
taking me. I do know that Ill never have to live with the heaviness
and burden of regret! As this journey unfolds I can share my expe-
riences with others and encourage them to take that leap of faith! I
may stumble. I may fall. I may even fail but now I know I have the
courage it takes to trust my hearts desire.
As I research options that come my way and search for opportuni-
ties that catch my interest, I keep several things in mind. First and
foremost: if my heart is not in it, it wont work for me or my family.
Second, listen to my intuitive voice, it wont steer me wrong. If some-
thing doesnt feel right, dont follow it. And third, keep an open mind
as not all things are as they appear. What once wasnt an option or an
interest might suddenly be exactly what I am looking for!
As I continue this newfound sense of freedom and release, I will
admit the fear and doubt still have a tendency to creep in. I keep
my family and friends close at hand because I know they support
me. Tey will remind me why I chose this path when Im feeling
frustrated or scared. Tey will remind me to take a look into my
childrens eyes and feel their love. One day I will be able to share
with them this experience and be an example for them! Which
reminds me to look past that fear and doubt and see all of the posi-
tive energy that has already come out of this choice. A choice that I
once thought I didnt have the courage to make!
Tere is so much talk about being, seeing and feeling the posi-
tive energy in all things so that we continue to attract that positive
energy into our lives. But take it from me, the only way to attract
positive energy is to live it and if your heart isnt in it, you wont see
it, feel it or fnd it! And it wont fnd you!
So fnd that courage that we all do possess and take that leap of
faith! You wont regret it and your heart will thank you for it!

Sutras. Tis same theory can be found in
hundreds of more recent texts as well, from
Wayne Dyer to Byron Katie.
It is also in the IAC Coaching Masteries,
most specifcally in Mastery #2: Perceiving,
af rming and expanding the clients poten-
tial (seeing the client as a Higher Being).
And so as you begin to make distinctions
around these two states in your own life, you
have access to a fail-proof tool for coaching
your clients.
Whether you use the terms human or
Higher Being with your clients or not,
(and I dont), you can point out the difer-
ence between the two as you see them and
encourage your clients to do the same. Tis
understanding in and of itself is instantly
life-changing. As clients create from their
own Higher Being, they begin to see others
in their lives existing in the same, efortless
state. It is impossible to stay stuck in the
state of human being while recognizing the
Higher Being in another.
Heres an example of how this might appear
in one of your client sessions, when coaching
a client through a dif cult relationship.
Your client might say about her partner,
He doesnt love me unconditionally.
As a coach, you will question this state-
ment. What makes you believe he doesnt
love you unconditionally? Is this really
true? Upon further questioning, the client
ofen realizes that it is she who is not loving
her spouse unconditionally instead of the
reverse. If theres no truth to the original
statement (he doesnt love me uncondition-
ally) the possibilities are now endless for this
couple. Now its time to fip the switch from
human to Higher Being.
You can ask: What is possible now that you
know this thought is not true? How do you
feel about your husband and your relation-
ship without this old thought? How might
he respond to you if you treat him like this
thought does not exist? As the client shifs
her thoughts away from misunderstandings
and limits in the relationship (human being)
to acceptance and limitless possibility
(Higher Being), she is free to create whatever
she desires.
Tis is one example out of thousands.
When you recognize the symptoms of human
being, you and your clients have instant access
to living life as Higher Beings. We all move
in and out of both states, but the continued
practice of observation, instant forgiveness
and forward motion (also important parts of
any yoga class) will allow you more time to
live joyfully as a Higher Being. Tis is the gif
you can also give your clients.

Human Being: Higher Being
The human being of today postpones and does not live in the present. Looking towards
the past, he laments and regrets or he struggles to predict the future. He will reach the age
of joy and strength only when he will live in the present. Emerson

Going
through
phase?
How to outt
your abode
stylishly and
economically
By Jennifer Walla
rom personal style, to what youre reading, and even
the foods you favor at any given moment we all go
through phases. But did you ever stop to think about the
evolution of your tastes in furniture over the years?
Marcia Smick could probably be considered an expert on the
subject. As the owner of a successful furniture and home dcor
consignment shop (aptly titled Furniture Phases), shes seen every
style, color and price point for such items and their corresponding
buyers.
Students of to college, budget-conscious singles and just-
marrieds, and empty nesters looking to outft a cottage or condo
are examples of the types of people who frequent her store at 1700
W. Wisconsin Ave., Appleton.
But its also people who just like to mix things up with their
dcor, she says. Lets face it, we get tired of the same pieces afer a
while and its fun to change things up in your house. When you buy
from us, you can get some very stylish, high-quality pieces and you
absolutely do not have to pay an arm and a leg for them.
Furniture Phases sells predominantly gently used furniture
and some new furniture inventory that comes from individual
homes, estate sales and furniture store close-outs. Everything is
inspected before it arrives to ensure its clean and in good repair.
Ten, items are arranged in vignettes throughout the showroom to
give customers an idea of how pieces will look in a given environ-
ment, such as a living or dining room. Artwork, foral arrangements
and other accent pieces help to round out a look.
For the uninitiated, consignment means to place something in
the hand of another, but retain ownership until the goods are sold
or transferred. At Furniture Phases, prices are determined jointly
a
with the consignor and style, condition,
brand name and original purchase price are
taken into consideration. Sellers receive 50
percent of the selling price.
Smick says the majority of items in her
store sell within a month.
I dont know how many times Ive said this,
but time is of the essence, she says. If you
hesitate you could lose something to someone
else. Tats why a lot of our customers come
in on a weekly basis. Tey dont necessarily
buy, but they are scoping out whats available,
and we are completely fne with that. In fact,
we encourage it.
For the undecided, items can be placed on
hold with some money down and the balance
paid within a few days. If a customer opts not
to follow through with a purchase, its not a
problem, Smick says.
Wed rather develop a relationship with
you and know what youre looking for than
have you be disappointed. Im happy to call
and say, I know you were in the market for
this particular style of love seat. We have one
in the store you may be interested in.
Customers also sign
up for the stores mailing
list for notifcations of
current inventory and
promotions. Browsing
the online showroom
is also an option. For
sellers, selling items is
easy and productive:
no strangers to your
home, risk of missed
appointments, wasted
time with hagglers,
security worries, or
risk of bad checks.
Rummage sales and
Craigslist are labor-
intensive and risky for
the seller, Smick says.
Te return on your time investment is rarely worth your eforts.
Unlike many used furniture shops, Furniture Phases ofers
delivery and pickup through several independent vendors for a
nominal fee.
Te fees are defnitely lower than standard delivery rates, and
we do not make any money on them, Smick says. We ofen have
customers selling their old furniture and buying new furniture so
its very cost efective if the two delivery trips can be coordinated
for the same time.
Smick fnds her work very rewarding and clearly enjoys herself.
A people person by nature, she enjoys the relationships shes
developed with customers over the years.
We have
customers from
all over the state
who come back
again and again,
she says. Weve
had people tell us
theyve programmed us into their GPS systems. Hearing things
like that is so rewarding to me because its all about feeling good
when you leave the store. Its OK to browse and not buy.
We want you to come back because were confdent youll fnd
that treasure youve always wanted.

How can you tell the diference between sweating and hyper-
hidrosis? Ask yourself these questions:
Do you run home to re-apply deodorant before going out
afer work?
Do you ever wash your underarms or feet between showers?
Are you constantly checking yourself to make sure your
deodorant is holding up?
Do regular deodorants seem to stop working for you afer a
few weeks?
Do you keep deodorant in your car or in your desk at work
or in your locker at school?
Have you ever had wet marks on your shirt or ruined a
shirt?
Are you ever worried about taking of your shoes because of
the smell?
Do you fear shaking hands with people because of your wet
palms?
Does your face fush and sweat more than other peoples?
Do you ever worry about wet marks on your pants or shirt?
If you answered yes to just one of these questions, you may have
hyperhidrosis. Consult your physician for the proper diagnosis.
Ten investigate the options to deal with these physically and
mentally taxing symptoms.

theoretical application from two schools of thought: Ayurvedic
principles and Native American teachings. What? Tats an excel-
lent question!
Both of these life-sciences parallel in historic measure and
theory. Tough independent from one another, their comprehen-
sive teachings are built upon a cornerstone to frst understand the
outlying physical world. (Tat in itself is a pretty big matzah ball,
but easy enough to digest when cut into smaller pieces.) Centu-
ries ago, both communities essentially took to studying fve basic
elements: ether (or space), air, fre, water and earth. Teir under-
standing of how these elements manifest, act, react and interact
lead them to insightful applications of how uniquely yet univer-
sally human energies perform as well.
For example, we see air at work when sturdy tree limbs bounce
in the breeze or bodies of water wave in synchronized motion.
Air alone produces such action. Air itself is illusive yet its pres-
ence can be very apparent. Likewise the beat of our hearts, each
breath that we take, every feeting thought that we have are all
like air, distinctly manifested, seemingly automatic and yet illu-
sive. It is for such reasons that the Ayurvedic principles deem air
as the element best representing movement and agility regarding
psychosomatic function.
Tough we all have essentially the same wiring, were each
wired a bit diferently. For those of us who are wired with all the
busy-ness, this time of year may be fuel for your fre, so have at it
and carpe diem! As for the rest of us? Tis is one of those times
whereby If ya cant beat em, join em! So move! A walk around
the block can burn of that edginess, or crank up a song that gets
you going and ditch your crankiness along the way. If its not for
lack alone of wanting to move but a compounding frustration just
to get going, then plant yourself outside. Sit or lay on the ground,
kick of your shoes, stomp or strum your feet in place. You dont
need to cause the neighbors concern by making a production of it;
you simply need to physically connect yourself to earth. For eons
earth has been a literal shock absorber, a natural-born stopping
point for lightning. Surely she will be able to absorb a few volts of
your electro-magnetic edgy energy in excess. Ten when its all
said and done, youll be ready to carpe diem with the best of em!
(Note: One good turn deserves another, so be sure to end your
grounding session with an attitude of gratitude. A sincere and
unspoken thank you is all it takes. For something to be simply
amazing, its usually amazingly simple.)

can excite them to a higher energy state. Electromagnetic
waves, microwaves, and radio waves are examples of non-
ionizing radiation. Non-ionizing radiation, though not
as powerful as ionizing radiation, nevertheless competes
with and compromises the natural human energy feld.
1986 Chernobyl effects
Although the radiation efects of the Japan nuclear incident remain
uncertain, the efects from the 1986 Chernobyl disaster are not. Fify
emergency rescue workers died from acute radiation syndrome and
related illnesses, 4,000 children and adolescents contracted thyroid
cancer, nine of whom died. More than 100,000 people were imme-
diately evacuated, and the number of evacuees from contaminated
areas eventually reached 350,000. Te explosions that destroyed
the unit four reactor core released a cloud of radionuclides, which
contaminated large areas of Europe and, in particular, Belarus, the
Russian Federation and Ukraine, and afected livestock as far away as
Scandinavia and Britain. (www.guardian.co.uk/4-12-11)
A Chernobyl story
Dr. Howard Fisher writes, In 1986 Dr. (Igor) Smirnov was part
of the investigative team that was looking into the disaster at the
Chernobyl nuclear power plant. Tere was a signifcant fnding
inside the afected perimeter: one group of irradiated people
undergoing the rehabilitation in the health care facility in the
area of mountain springs was not sufering from cancer, although
millions of others were. Tis was the seed from which sprouted
one of the most innovative molecular changes that we have seen to
the structure of water. (Molecular Resonance Efect Technology:
Te Dynamic Efects on Human Physiology, 2008)

syndrome, which can increase joint irritation and muscle tension in
the neck, upper back and scalp, which results in the head to ache.
Chiropractic has been shown to be very efective in treating
headaches. In 2001, researchers at the Duke University Evidence-
Based Practice Center in Durham, N.C., found that spinal manip-
ulation resulted in almost immediate improvement for those
headaches that originate in the neck, and had signifcantly fewer
side efects and longer lasting relief of tension-type headaches
than commonly prescribed medication.
So what can someone do for prevention? Te American Chiro-
practic Association recommends the following: If you spend a
large amount of time in one fxed position, such as in front of a
computer, on a sewing machine, typing or reading, take a break
and stretch every 30 minutes to one hour. Te stretches should take
your head and neck through a comfortable range of motion. Low
impact exercise may help relieve the pain associated with primary
headaches. However, if you are prone to dull, throbbing head-
aches, avoid heavy exercise. Engage in such activities as walking
and low-impact aerobics. Avoid teeth clenching. Te upper teeth
should never touch the lowers, except when swallowing. Tis
results in stress at the temporomandibular joints (TMJ)
the two joints that connect your jaw to the skull leading to
TMJ. Tis leads to irritation and a form of tension headaches.
Drink at least eight 8-ounce glasses of water a day to help
avoid dehydration, which can lead to headaches.
Chiropractors may help suferers by performing spinal
manipulation or chiropractic adjustments to improve spinal
function and alleviate the stress on your system. Tey may also
provide nutritional advice, recommending a change in diet and
perhaps the addition of a specifc supplement for the specifc type
of headache. Lastly, chiropractors may work with posture, ergo-
nomics (work postures), exercises, etc. to relieve the recurring
joint irritation and tension in the muscles of the neck and back.
More and more people are now choosing chiropractic, which
has been shown to be a safe and efective alternative to drugs for
the treatment of their headaches. Going to a board-certifed chiro-
practor may be the answer headache suferers need.

Have you ever tried making carrot cake or
chocolate zucchini bread? Both are very
yummy! Consider purchasing a cookbook
from a local organization or civic group.
Try your local public library. It probably
has a good selection.
Te Food Network and Cooking Channel
ofer many cooking shows. Rachael Ray,
Giada DeLaurentiis and Ina Garten are
household names. By watching diferent
shows, you not only see how recipes are
made but also learn new techniques and
the explanation of a lot of cooking terms
such as al dente, baste, chifonade, and
reduction, for example.
Rachael Ray is known for this quote:
Its the little something that makes you go,
hmmmm. She is referring to nutmeg, a
spice she almost always uses when cooking
leafy greens (kale, swiss chard, spinach,
etc.). For the most part, the recipes on
these channels are easy to follow, but if you
are more than an average cook, you can
still be entertained for hours by many of
the chefs.
Over the last 5+ years, food blogs have
become very popular. You can subscribe
to diferent blogs and receive updates via
e-mail when new recipes are added. You
can also get updates via Facebook and
Twitter. Just as you have a favorite cook-
book, you will soon have a favorite blog.
Google ofers a food blog search. You can
type in any vegetable and get many recipes
to choose from. Tis comes in real handy
when you have a unique vegetable like
purple potatoes, delicata squash and pea
shoots, for example. Most of the blogs
feature step-by-step instructions for each
recipe, along with photos of the ingredi-
ents, the process and a picture of the fnal
product. For beginning cooks this can
be very helpful when trying new recipes.
Tese blogs usually include stories or little
rants and raves so you feel like you have a
personal connection to the blogger.
Now you know where to fnd recipes
for the vegetable growing season. Have
fun visiting the local farmers markets and
consider joining a vegetable share program
(community-supported agriculture).
Kay Bastian has been a member of Park Ridge
Organics vegetable share program since 2009. She
e-mails members weekly with recipes and tips about
how to use the fresh produce provided in the shares.
She also organizes Recipe Days at the Farm where
members and the public can visit Park Ridge Organics
and learn more about using fresh, seasonal produce.

Summer is fnally here. In Wisconsin, summers are precious to
us. Te chance to spend endless hours at the beach followed up with
warm, breezy evenings is what life is all about.
Now is the time to get your skin looking its best. Te easiest way
to renew your skin for summer is to slough of old winter skin cells
and hydrate your way to the glowing summer skin we all desire.
Te process of exfoliation removes dead skin cells, while promot-
ing new skin cell development. You should exfoliate 1-2 times per
week. As we age, our cell turnover rate decreases. Exfoliation helps
to increase this rate, revealing smoother brighter skin cells at the
surface.
Exfoliation also helps to fght acne. By removing the sebum and
dead skin cells, we prevent blockages from occurring. Its an easy
way to fght pesky blemishes.
Finally, summertime is a chance to get out of boots and into fip-
fops. Te best way to get your feet ready is to exfoliate away that dry
cracked heel, followed by an intense moisturizer that increases the
elasticity of the skin. A mini pedicure about every week will keep
your feet smooth and bright.
You are now ready to hit the beach, go dancing under the stars,
or go hiking in the woods. Whatever you do, youll be looking your
summertime best.

B Food grade, probably contains synthetics, pesticides, fertil-
izers, extenders or carrier oils
C Perfume grade probably contains same type of adulterating
chemicals as food grade oils. Usually contain solvents which are
used to gain a higher yield of oil per harvest.
D A byproduct of the distillation process and is very high
quality IF it comes from Grade A distillation process.
Terapeutic grade essential oils may be difused, applied topically
to the body, or taken orally. Essential oils that are used for holistic
healing must be therapeutic grade. Holistic is the interconnection of
the mind, body and spirit. Other oil grades may include unhealthy
additives. It is very important to know that your oils are a therapeu-
tic grade before applying them to the skin or ingesting them.
Te immune boosting properties of essential oils are numerous.
Oils difused into the air clean and detoxify the air reducing the
number of pathogens in the air and strengthening our immune
system. Oils that can help prevent infection are eucalyptus, oregano,
lemon and cinnamon.
Te lifestyle choices we make can alter the course of our life.
Foods are just one way toxic chemicals invade our bodies. Tey can
also be found in our medicine cabinets, beauty products, laundry
room and lawn care products. Some studies refect a direct correla-
tion between increased chemical exposure and the rise in degenera-
tive diseases. Using essential oils in place of these toxic products are
one way to keep ourselves and our families healthy. Essential oils
can also combat the toxins we bring into our bodies.
Stress levels also afect ones health. A state of chronic stress
increases the level of cortisol in our bodies. Cortisol is the stress
hormone, which has also been nicknamed the death hormone.
Cortisol leads to higher levels of infammation in the body, which
then contributes to many degenerative diseases. Using essential oils
such as lavender, orange, Joy and Peace & Calming can relieve stress
protecting our immune system. Research has shown, with their
immune stimulating properties, essential oils enhance and support
the building of the immune system, whether they are ingested,
inhaled or rubbed on the body topically.
Essential oils have a wide range of
benefts including:
Improve your immune system
Decrease insomnia
Sooth digestive disorders
Reduce pain and infammation
Provide anti-microbial protection
Improve mental clarity
Provide natural pain relief
Afect the psyche
Improve mental clarity
Protect against cancer
Protect against colds and infuenza
Provide safe and natural alternatives to household cleaners

70 Natures Pathways

By Teresa Van Lanen
I
attended a womens business confer-
ence recently where I had the oppor-
tunity to meet women from many
areas of the business world. We gath-
ered in a large conference room which was
full of buzzing energy. As usual I began my
habit of observing the group and of sensing
others energies. I doubled my eforts as we
were being asked to pair up for an exercise
to search out who I would pair up with.
Sitting two chairs down from me was
a woman who sent of a clear vibration of
leave me alone. I am pretty in tune to this
sort of thing but even the less energy sensi-
tive would have picked up on her signals.
And she was to be my partner in the exer-
cise, which was to share what we felt our life
purpose was.
Having worked to identify and refne my
life purpose in the past few years, I had a
ready response but I did overhear several
others saying how dif cult it was to be this
open. So I wondered how my partner would
respond to this request. She surprised me
with how freely she shared. She felt her life
purpose was to learn to open up to others,
in her words to bond. She then clarifed
that she wasnt a people person. I became
curious and I wondered to myself, OK,
universe, were you putting this women in
my path for a reason?
At lunch I was eating with two other
women who lef early to see an exhibit. At
the next table eating alone, was my partner
from the sharing exercise. I approached her
saying, I am going to help you fulfll your
life purpose. As lunch progressed I could
see and feel her let down her guard and
open up. Her face transformed from stoic
to sof, her smile from tight to open, and
her words from clipped to gentle. I could
see and feel her inner beauty. Tis was such
a wonderful experience that I am compelled
to share it with all of you today.
Tis false impression she posed struck
me because I have been that leave me
alone woman myself. I used to do it quite
a bit in the past when I was more guarded
and anxious about letting others in. I was
a champ at this type of self-imposed isola-
tion and I am sure it lef others with a sour
impression of who I was.
What does that guardedness say to
others? How much of my life did I want
to live in this state? What was I afraid
of? Having intimate experience breaking
through this myself I could provide all of
you some tips on how to become more
inviting and open and less guarded.
10 tips to leave an inviting
impression:
Recognize when you become guarded
to see if there is a pattern or triggered
event that you respond to.

of impression you leave
with someone who
doesnt know you.
Gain awareness that you
are shutting others out
by checking in with body changes you
may experience.
Ask yourself if you are feeling a sense
of futtering in your gut, heaviness in
your chest, tightness in your throat?
Tese are all typical things that our
body experiences when we shut down
to ourselves or others.
What message are you telling your-
self when this happens? Do you feel
others are judging you or are you
really judging yourself?
Ask yourself what really is the truth;
this false belief or something else.
Give yourself an af rmation about
who you really are and what your
truth really is, such as: I am a woman
who others are drawn to because I am
open and inviting or Others want
to spend time with me because I am
interesting and fun.
Initiate; dont wait for others to greet
you. Give eye contact and an open
smile to see what kind of response
you will get.
Start small. Greet someone in your
line at the grocery store or bank and
work up to greeting a new person at a
wedding or conference.
Congratulate yourself when you go
out of your comfort zone by being
more inviting. Tis will help fuel you
to the next level.

immune system. Its been suggested that this
is the cause for the explosion of allergies in
the last couple decades.
So what to do?
Not a single study has shown any antibac-
terial compound to be more efective than
plain old soap and water. Te most efective
way to kill bacteria is to work up a good
lather in warm water for 10 to 15 seconds,
making sure to get under fngernails,
wrists, back of hands, and between fngers.
For household use, vinegar and hydrogen
peroxide sprays work wonders for killing
bacteria, and are substantially cheaper. By
simply doing this, youll be eliminating
your familys unnecessary exposure to toxic
chemicals, and saving money!
Happy lathering!!

the spinal cord to develop.
Craniosacral therapy involves a light touch that is applied by the
therapist on the head, gently massaging the skull, then down to the
spinal cord, and ending at the sacral area: from cranium to sacrum.
Te pressure applied is no greater than 5 grams, or the weight of a
nickel. Craniosacral is a non-invasive and gentle form of massage to
balance energy as well as the fow of craniosacral fuid. Te treatment
is so gentle that it can be used on infants and the elderly.
Craniosacral therapy has great benefts for those who sufer from
headaches or migraines. Te therapist gives special attention to the
sutures of the cranial bones. Applying gentle pressure to pressure
points along the scalp where multiple sutures meet will give relief
to tense areas. Ofen the act of touching these areas can help release
pressure and in turn relieve pain or discomfort caused by imbalance
of cranialsacral fuid fow.
When headaches occur, pressure builds up along the base of the
cranium, where the neck bones meet the skull. Te therapist would
apply pressure at the base to relieve pressure that forms headaches.
Tense muscles and stress can block the fow of cranial fuid which in
return causes headaches.
Another method for headache relief is to stimulate fuids and
release pressure by the ears with gentle massaging and a gentle
pull of the ear lobes. At frst this method may feel awkward, but
it will give much relieve to headaches or migraines.
A gentle rocking motion under the sacrum, which connects
the spine and ends at the cranium, stimulates fuid between
bones of the spine helping to relieve pressure and discomfort.
Tis method is benefcial for low back pain.
Crainosacral therapy is known to boost resistance to illness and
also reduce the pain and stress experienced by clients from the
following medical conditions:
Headaches and migraines
Chronic back and neck pain
Chronic fatigue
Digestive problems
Tension and anxiety
Hyperactivity
Behavioral disorders
TMJ
Sinus pressure
Clients who have received craniosacral therapy have experienced
better sleep, improved mobility and overall boost of energy. So
whether your head is pounding from a headache or youre looking to
unwind, you may want to give craniosacral therapy a try.

How can you learn what foods may be
causing you delayed reactions?
I ofen encourage my patients to try Dr. Mark Hymans Ultra-
Simple Diet for 7 days which can jump start your metabolism and
help you identify your top food allergies. You do this by following a
simple, elimination diet that removes the top 10 food allergens for
a week and slowly add them back and watch your bodys reaction.
His book, Te UltraSimple Diet is available at most bookstores or
from his web site - www.ultrasimplediet.com. As an added bonus,
many of my patients experience up to 10 pounds of weight loss in
addition to feeling much better afer trying the diet.
Technology exists today to help measure personalized nutrition
at the cell level as well. A simple blood test such as the ALCAT
test can help you determine your bodys cellular response to chal-
lenges from foods, food additives and colorings, molds and envi-
ronmental chemicals. Tis test has been validated by demonstrat-
ing a high correlation with double-blind oral challenges with both
foods and additives. In addition, a controlled study from Baylor
Medical College reported 98 percent success for weight loss and/
or improvement in body composition from patients that followed
the recommended ALCAT Rotation Diet. Tis diet is designed
specifcally for each patient and includes a customized 4-day rota-
tion diet. Studies have shown that the human digestive system is
more suited to seasonal diet as opposed to the traditional Western
diet. By eating foods in a particular family one day and then omit-
ting them for at least three days, a cumulative sensitizing efect is
avoided. Tis time allows the food molecules to clear the system,
avoiding overload.
In my wellness practice, I help women feel better by providing
testing for hormone imbalances and food allergies if desired along
with guidance about nutrition, supplements, exercise and stress
management. Helping my patients identify their IgG allergies has
helped then to recover from their chronic symptoms and regain
vibrant good health. If you are not feeling well please consider
talking with a health care professional about the possibility of food
allergies causing your symptoms.
If you are a woman and would like to learn more about food
allergies, hormone safety and treatment options please consider
attending one of the popular introductory educational seminars
(ofered monthly) at Wise Woman Wellness in De Pere. If you are
not feeling your best please seek appropriate answers and proper
guidance for management of your symptoms and individual needs.
Choose a knowledgeable provider who specializes in midlife care
for women and is certifed through the North American Meno-
pause Society (NAMS) if possible. You may fnd a provider in your
area listed online at http:www.menopause.org/referralservice.aspx
or contact NAMS at 440.442.7550.

new path of healthier living. Luckily, Ive had
the opportunity to thank him for his honesty
and how it changed my life.
Tis doesnt mean that we should be
ofensive in what we are saying, nor should
we avoid our thoughts and feelings because
we might ofend with our honest assess-
ment of a situation. We should be aware of
how our words will be received and how
our words will give others the opportunity
to grow, if they so choose.
A few months ago I had to take my wife
into the emergency room in Madison. We
hadnt been there for 30 minutes when her
phone rang. It was her twin sister inform-
ing us that she was on her way to join us
and that she wasnt turning back no matter
what either of us said. Upon her arrival,
I mentioned that her behavior was a bit
disrespectful. She then stated that she knew
what it was like to be in the hospital and
have a husband that didnt allow her family
to see her.
Without hesitation, I pointed out rather
quickly and sternly that Im not your
ex-husband.
Communicating directly and honestly in
this situation gave her the opportunity to
evaluate her thoughts, emotions, beliefs and
perceptions about life if she so chose.
It is through direct, open and honest
communication that we are able to under-
stand who a person truly is in the moment.
When we have past unresolved issues of
events or with others, we will ofen overlay
them onto a person in our present life. In
doing this, the internal issue is seeking reso-
lution and we are unable to see the person
in front of us.
Over the years, Ive witnessed adults
acting like kids on a playground when
they withhold communication or try to
avoid direct communication with others.
Remember when we would take our toys
and go home when things werent going our
way in the sandbox?
When we do this as adults it is with a deep
desire to avoid the issues within us that truly
should be expressed and resolved. Tis could
be from our yearning to maintain the drama
which is serving a sense of value and purpose
for us or because we are avoiding the confict
that may arise. Yet, the confict we are actu-
ally avoiding is within our own self and will
continue to fester and play out in our lives in
unhealthy ways until it is resolved.
Using others for a sounding board is
not a bad thing. All of us should have close
friends and mentors that we can bounce our
life struggles with in order to understand
the issues within ourselves that need to be
addressed. When we verbalize our issues it
allows us to sort through these internal issues
that are mirroring themselves in our rela-
tionships. What separates the adviser from
the gossip or avoider is the intent with which
we are communicating; is it constructive and
positive or is it degrading and negative?
Tere is so much that can be said about
how we communicate, or fail to commu-
nicate our thoughts and emotions in life.
However, it is important to recognize and
be aware of how and where we express
ourselves. We measure our value, worth,
purpose and lovability through this
communication. Our relationships in life
and our overall health, mind, body and
spirit, depends upon it.

I dont do adrenaline any longer. Im over it!
I dont hang out with associates or friends who are adrena-
line addicts.
I dont do good ideas any longer; I do what has meaning
to me.
I dont get my energy from causing accountability deferment
tactics, overcoming problems, or beating deadlines.
I am not defned by what I do, so I dont have to do more to
be more. I am who I am, and I am happy about that.
I dont do emergencies. Tey are a source of accountabil-
ity-deferment tactics.
I dont try to change people, but I do extend boundaries.
I am not rushing through this program.
It is important to note that during a process of change, you may
experience many feelings including irritability, freedom, boredom,
confusion, a sense of loss or rushes of energy. Tere is no shortcut
through the feelings, for one usually needs to pass through the
gates of boredom to enter into the garden of peace. Be willing to be
the change, experience the change and work with it. Te end result
will be truly amazing!
