Practical Tips for a Healthy New Year

Greetings!


The beginning of a new year seemed like a good time to introduce our first newsletter. Winter, when everything sometimes appears so still, is actually a recoil downward and inward before the rebound of the life force that occurs in spring. It is a time of quiet introspection; it presents us with an opportunity to review our current patterns of behavior; where we touch, or have lost touch with, our life purpose.

 

Our goal is to bring you practical information that will help you in your journey to connect, whether it's with your life purpose, others around you, nature, or a higher spirit. We'll also keep you posted on news from Friday Harbor Holistic Health and our Infinite Body Yoga, Qi Gong and Tai Chi classes.

 

Please, let us know what you think, what you'd like to see in these editions, and how we can help you. We want to work with you to achieve your optimal health and inner peace.

The End of the Antibiotic Age

Our world is undergoing rapid, complex change that will lead to drastic alterations of the status quo. Britain's chief medical officer cautions that we are now entering the post-antibiotic era. Bacterial resistance to antibiotics has been advancing dramatically to the point where death rates from infections similar to those seen one hundred years ago will soon recur. In other words, the bugs have outsmarted the docs, the pharmaceuticals, the research labs, the hospitals and perhaps the very ideas on which our medicine is based.

Is Your Soap Killing You?

Soap helps wash us but soaps can also kill us. Kill us, really? Not directly, of course, but in slow, silent, unseen ways, yes.

 

Book Wins Impressive Award

Nicholas's first book, "The Power of Letting Go: Transforming Fear into Love," scored a top honor as an award-winning finalist in the Self-Help category of The 2013 USA Best Books Awards, sponsored by USA Book News.

 

The Power of Root Vegetables

 

According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, Winter is the time of Water, whose vital energy tends to seek low, hidden places where its power resides, just like the hidden aquifers and waterways under the earth. Root vegetables are filled with this type of concentrated water. Therefore, eating plenty of them over the winter period will sustain our bodies and minds in preparation for the new, upward moving energies of spring.

Words to Remember

"All of us, beneath the surface of our personalities, seek love: to love, and to be loved. This is not always obvious at first - many things may seem more attractive and more important, but ultimately, they prove to be illusions. Only love can give meaning to our lives. So to live from the heart is the only way to live, for, in the end, only living in this way will have felt real."
