 Happy April Fool's Day
April 2010Happy Easter!
"April Showers Bring May Flowers"
The most important news this issue is "I'm a grandma!" Baby Zan Kodi Miakinkoff was born 3/17/10 at 8:05am. He weighed in at 7 pounds, 4 ounces and measured 18.5 inches long.
The re-make of the massage room at The Herb Shoppe has been completed. I am working on hanging some antique windows as art work on the empty wall. The room is very beautiful, warm and inviting. I really like the ambiance and energy of the room and hope all of you will love the changes/improvements and find it just as welcoming as the massage room at the Halsey Street location.
Click Here for the April Special
A few of the practitioners at The Herb Shoppe are participating in a wellness campaign where fliers in specific neighborhoods are being distributed. These hand fliers have a fabulous coupon on the back of them. For an incredibly combined reduced price of only $145.00 you will receive a one hour session each with a Naturopathic Doctor, an Licensed Acupuncturist and a Licensed Massage Therapist. This is a combined savings of over $150.00 for you for these 3 wellness services. This ad campaign is directed at First Time (New Clients) to The Herb Shoppe. However, if you wish to receive a massage from me, I will honor this coupon for you without having to be a "new client" to me. (see coupon at the bottom of this newsletter)
Also, please visit The Herb Shoppe website for all the Wednesday night free classes. The Lavender Therapy Soaps have arrived! I am well stocked again for the following LTS as I did not order all of them: Lavender, Lavender/Rosemary, Lavender/Rose, Lavender/Clary Sage and Lavender/Lemongrass. There is an increase in the cost, but I have decided to not pass this along to my clients/customers and will keep the price of these fabulous hand made soaps with essential oils at $5.00 per bar. Each bar is a generous 3.5 ounces . See page 5 of my website for full details of all ingredients.This is some really wonderful news: Arbonne has introduced a fabulous new item in their Bio-Nurtia line. Vegan Omega 3! I am very excited about this and especially pleased to be able to pass this information along to all my "herbivore" friends...

Articles of Interest
All
of us see and experience the multitude of flaws with Western allopathic
medicine in America. It is my intention to illuminate these issues,
bring them to your attention for your scrutiny and for you too, to
ponder the "why is this so?" in the hopes that it will spur action to
remedy the iniquities, falsehoods, and wrong-doings of our health care
system.
"We the people" should not be as cattle to the slaughter...there are healthful, safe options for all of us! BE INFORMED.
just click on the topics below to have an immediate link to more information on the subjects.
 I do wish to post a reminder here that if you are experiencing
any cold or flu like symptoms a few days before or the day of your
scheduled massage, please call me and let me know. I would very much
prefer that you stay home and get well rather than exposing healthy people to the virus.... Unless, of course you wish to request a Raindrop Treatment (RT) add -on to your massage! This is an excellent way to naturally boost
your immune system for prevention of colds and flu. Raindrop
Treatments have also been advantageous in helping to reduce symptoms
and duration of colds and flu after you already catch them. (personal experience: the next day, you are all well! --no more suffering for weeks and weeks!)
I will also be diffusing air purifying essential oils
for all of our protection.
I have a full description of RT on my website. I also have available, the Young Living explanation of Raindrop Therapy at essentialeverydayoils.com
. If you are interested, I have a Raindrop Therapy Disclosure Packet
available for your ease of reference that lists all the essential oils
used, why they are used and what other additional health benefits they
may provide along with any contraindications for these oils. I am interested in helping you stay healthy and well!
 Please visit my website
(page 6) and have a peek at the Sponsor Partner list updates. I do hope you will patronize these most
excellent service providers and while you are there, fill out a ticket
for my monthly "Win a Massage Drawing". Every time you patronize my
Sponsor Partners, you are eligible to enter another ticket for the
monthly drawing. Good Luck. I hope you're one of the winners!
EVERY month at the
end of each month I will draw one entry ticket from each Sponsor
Partner facility. The winners of the drawings will be receiving a
special e-mail with an attached certificate for a free massage.
Wishing you and all your loved ones continued good health and blessings in abundance.

 Protect Your Wealth!by Ed Freeman: The silver business continues to increase. I`m sending
out more and more Silver Eagles to members. That`s because business overall
is up and the commission increase announced a couple months ago is generating
more bonus coins to members. And in the past I`ve noticed more interest in silver
during a similar stage in silver price action.
Every coin adds up. You get paid on EVERY coin sold.
Any "half coin" in commission is rolled forward to the next month
so every sale counts. Silver's
Role in a Barter Economy
"Make
no mistake about it: silver is an investment for trying times. As one the
most beautifully shiny metals, silver's true economic beauty shines through
in a world ruined by rampant inflation and growing debt. " ~By
Dr. Jeffrey Lewis

occasion where I send out a special second newsletter during the
month. This newsletter is not the same as my more often "e-blast"

Pathology Corner
Here are five things that research has shown can improve happiness:
Be grateful. People who were asked to
write letters of gratitude to people who had helped them in some way
reported a lasting increase in happiness -- over weeks and even months
-- after implementing the habit. Even when people wrote letters but
never delivered them to the addressee, they still reported feeling
better afterwards
Be optimistic. People were asked to visualize an ideal future and describe the image
in a journal entry. After doing this for a few weeks, these people too
reported increased feelings of well-being.
Count your blessings.
People who practice writing down three good things that have happened
to them every week show significant boosts in happiness. The act of
focusing on the positive helps people remember reasons to be glad.
Use your strengths.
Another study asked people to identify their greatest strengths, and
then to try to use these strengths in new ways. This habit, too, seems
to heighten happiness.
Commit acts of kindness. It turns out helping others also helps ourselves. People who donate
time or money to charity, or who altruistically assist people in need,
report improvements in their own happiness.
